how do you make the little hearts by some peoples names... i have copied and pasted but only a question mark comes up.

i know how to make it with © in the font symbol but i don't think you can use html in your posts to change the font.

thank you for your help!

To make those hearts before your name or whatever you want to type, you just need to type & hearts ; but without the spaces and it will work for you.

well i kinda want to do somting with my boyfirend and i want to shave down there how can i do that with out getting ingrown hairs, rashes and etc. and i dont want to wax just somthing fast at home!!
pls help
aLLtHatJaZZ!

People have mentioned that you should use Nair Hair Remover but seriously, DO NOT use it! It will make your skin irritated and you will itch and it's not made to remove your pubic hair. You should just shave normally, like you would for your legs, but just your pubic hair instead. Use water, shaving cream, and a good razor, and shave slowly in the direction that your hair grows in and then apply lotion when you are done. This will keep you from getting ingrown hairs, razor burn, and so on. Yes, you may get them at first but once you get used to shaving your pubic hair, they will go away, trust me. You can try out Nair but I'm warning you, watch out.

Okay- I have reported abuse on here, what happens next? it gives you a link, but i cant keep track of it, so, how do you know if anything has been done about your abuse report??

If you want to know if anything has been done with your abuse report, you need to go to the abuse report page and click on the link, which is http://www.advicenators.com/abuse.php?mode=list&view=mine, that shows you the reports that you've submitted and you can then read the response to it.

Its Sherry...this is a random question..but your on advicenators more than me..and I was wondering how your keeping up with school lol..cuz one of the reasons I have F's (well I raised them up) was because of advicenators! =D..its taking over my life..haha

Actually, it seems that I'm on Advicenators a lot but I'm not. For the past week or two, I've been really busy and I only answer about 2-5 questions a day and just rate questions. I must admit that Advicenators did take over my life but that was a while ago and now I don't even have time to go on this site. My grades a great, since I update my column before school. I guess you can try making time for school instead on Advicenators. Just tell yourself that Advicenators will always be here where as school won't be.

well i decided to have a sleep-over but i dont know what i should do or what movies i sohlud rent.. pleez help me out here. if u say truth or dare please give examples.

You can do a lot of other things besides watching movies at your sleep over. You can play games, talk about gossip, give each other make overs, call people, karaoke, listen to music, dance, and so on. You can watch "The Notebook", "The Ring 1", "Napolean Dynamite", "White Chicks", "Barbershop 1 and 2", "Scary Movie 1, 2, and 3", "Euro Trip", "Road Trip", and so many other movies.

hey i was woundring if theyre is anythingi can do to stop popping my knuckles , its just a habbit , i dont it all the time , and what dose it to to your hands?

Cracking your knuckles is a habit that's pretty hard to break. I've never cracked my knuckles so I don't exactly know how you can stop. Just try distracting yourself when you feel that you need to crack your knuckles I guess. When you crack your knuckles for a long time, you will eventually get arthritis in your fingers and your fingers will become wider.

for my b-day i got thes iron-on rhinestones, where you can put them on denim, and they come in shapes and words, like stars and circles, and words like 'hot', 'sweet' and 'sexy', or you can make your own designs. i have two questions. 1. would they look better on a jean jacket, or jeans, and 2. what other designs would be a good idea?

These rhinestones would probably look better on a jean jacket, in my opinion. I've seen them on jackets and they look cute. You could put hearts, your name or your first initial, and just other cute designs.

this may seem retarted but im 13 years old.. blonde hair- blue eyes.. and i want to be a singer.. everyone tells me i have a good voice and i should have gone out for this singing contest we have at school- i really wish i had.. im working up the courage to ask my mom to get me voice lessons.. in the mean time i just listen to music every single solitary chance i get and sing at the top of my lungs... should i go out for a school musical or something..?

If you know that you are a good singer and people tell you that you are, then you should definitely follow your dream and become a singer and do everything that you can that will get you there. You should ask your mom and she probably will let you get lessons.

ok.. so i just got a pretty bad report card.. one d (teacher lost some of my tests though) and a few c+/-'s and 1 b and 1 b+... my dad got so mad at me and he was swearing and everything.. then he tells me if i dont get a solid b or higher in every subject this trimester then i hafta go to summer school and if i dont get honor roll all next year i hafta repeat the grade over again.. what should i do?

You should listen to what your dad said and that if you don't do better in school, he'll make you go to summer school. You are probably really mad at him right now, right? Well, take what he said has motivation and start doing better. Once you know that you are doing better, show your dad all your grades and ask your teachers to write a note every week, saying that you are improving. If somehow you can't improve your grades, talk to your dad and tell him that you can't always look up to his expectations of you. If my mom or dad said this to me, I would actually prove to them that I can get better grades and they wouldn't let me go to summer school. Just prove to yourself that you can do better and I bet your dad will know that you can get good grades.

i flirt alot with a lot of different guys and i have a boyfriend is that bad?

No, it's not bad at all because some girls are natural flirts and it's not your fault that your flirt. It may be alright for you but as for your boyfriend, he may feel different about this but you should probably stop, just in case.

I have a really bad problem with my hair. it's huge. It frizzy and thick and its so hard to manage. I was just wondering if there are any known products that can help me with my unmanageable hair. I've tried thinning, and cutting and many products with minimal success. Also straightening my hair takes about 3 hours and I really dont have that kind of time to spend on my hair. Please help!! I rate high for appropriate answers

The are gels and serums that will help "tone" your hair so it won't be so thick, frizzy, and such. John Freida's "Frizz-Ease" works pretty well and Paul Mitchell has some relaxers, serums, and other products that will help. If you do ever have the time to straighten your hair, straighten it in layers and that will help.

how do you get rid of a pimple? pleasee help!

To get rid of a pimple, is pretty simple; just don't touch your face at all because that will make it last even longer. Don't try to pop up and just wash your face with an acne facial wash by Neutrogena. Those creams that tell you that your zits will go away in a few days, don't even work so don't try them out. If it turns into a white head, pop it and immediately rub rubbing alcohol over it so it will be clean and you can put toothpaste over it so it will reduce the redness of your zit. If you don't touch face, then your pimple will go away faster.

Ok for my birthdya this year(14) im going to have it at a theme park. I was only invite 5 friends intill my whole class some how found out.Should I tell them im not having one then invite only the ones i was gonan invite or ininvite all the girls, it really expensive and for sure we are going

HELP

You don't have to invite all the girls for your birthday. It's your party and you can invite anyone you want. Invite your 5 friends that you already invited and it's not your fault that you can't invite everyone. If people in your class ask why you didn't invite them and that you only invited as many people as you could.

on my computer, the mouse is a little dinosaur when it is loading. i forgot how to change it. can someone please tell me how? it is getting on my nerves!

You need to change your Pointer Options by going to your Control Panel, clicking on Mouse, and then Pointer Options. If your computer has a theme to it that makes your pointer a dinosaur, then you need to go to your Desktop Themes in your Control Panel.

How do I get my hair to become straight and stay like that? It's a little wavy right now. What kind of products should I use? My hair is kind of thick too.

If you want your hair to stay straight, you can get a Japenese perm that will make your hair straight. That's the only way that will make your hair straight. To keep your hair straight for a day or two, I suggest that you buy a CHI or a flat iron. They are pretty pricey but work great and you can get them for a reduced price and Sally's Beauty Supplies. Any products by Paul Mitchell will help keep your hair straight. "Straight Works" is great.

im having problems with advicenators. this keeps showing up on the left hand side of my advicenators bar.

Warning: fopen(http://dl.spacefem.com/list3.txt): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in /home/advicena/public_html/getchatters.php on line 4

Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/advicena/public_html/getchatters.php on line 7

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/advicena/public_html/getchatters.php on line 13

what is this?

The reason why you get this error message is because when you are going through the pages on Advicenators, the bot in the Advicenators' chat updates and when it updates at the same time when you are loading up a page, this error shows up. It's no big deal at all, you just need to hit refresh.
