why do people always say crack crack crack?
i dont get it
what Janie said is pretty much right, they are either trying to make a....joke....try to make themselves look cool in front of their friends, they watched it on tv or heard it on the radio, or a movie, tv show etc. Or thats the new "lingo" for them haha.
I have heard people say it and snap their fingers together. And its usually to piss someone off haha. hope this helped! :-)
this is a bit akward and embarrasing but i don't really knoe what to do.I took a crap yesterday and when i wiped there was blood. i'm not on my period and I know the blood came from my anus.What could be wrong. i'm not sore. I have a rash that comes everyonce in a while but thats it. What is wrong with my ass??
Well, Im not too farmiliar with this subject, so I found you some educational websites that will help you:
http://www.medicinenet.com/rectal_bleeding/page2.htm
http://firstaid.webmd.com/rectal-bleeding-treatment
take a look at these websites, they will give you information on what it is exactaly, how it happens, how to treat it, and possible reasons, and more.
But I would not just rely on a website, please tell a parent or guardian and seek medical help. Nobody on advicenators can tell you exactaly what is wrong. :-)

Does anyone know any good websites for females or males around the ages of 13-16 besides myspace, facebook, imvu, msn, hi-5 etc...
If it helps I like websites where I can meet new people, where I can have a profile (talk about myself) and even dress-up games are fun too.
Just giving out a few suggestions that I have heard from people: (I have not tried them)
*webkinz (ALOT of people in their teens up use this site)
*Habbo
*club penguin
are you looking for ones that you potentially pay for? I can help you out better if you be a little more specific please :-)
I always get asked if I've had braces. I did, I had them for a few years in middle school. But I never feel the need to ask anyone if they've had braces. I mean, my teeth aren't THAT straight, because I don't wear my retainer anymore. But I'm starting to wonder if my teeth look different or something... why would they be asking me this?
I had braces too, and I get asked all the time also. Actually, alot of people usually ask that question to people because their teeth look really good, so I definetly would not take that as a bad thing. Everytime I go to ask someone if they had braces, its because their teeth look really good :-)
If it bothers you alot, then you could just ask them (in a nice-conversational type way) yeah, why?
Good Luck, hope I helped :-)

Well, i've been collecting Archie comics for a VERY long time and have accumulated a large box full. From them I have recieved so many memories that I feel I can't part with them, but I already told someone that I would sell them to him and now I feel really bad about it. I didn't think I would have a problem giving them away, but now I go through the box and think of all the years reading them with friends and collecting them. He's coming in a few days to possibly buy them. They would be going to a place where im sure they would love them as much as I did. Are they worth keeping? Should I keep my favorites and give the rest away? I know they are just comics, but they hold a lot of memories...
I love Archie comics, I have collected a few, myself! They are fun to read, but it depends on how much money you are getting for them. If it is alot of money, then I would sell them. If it's not alot of money then I would re evaluate if its something you really want to do or not. Its your decision, but if it were me, I would keep the oldest issues, because those will be worth the most, and then I would also keep some of my absolute favorites.
I mean, ask yourself some questions:
*do you need the whole box of comics
*how attached are you to them
*take out the comics that you would keep, and look at them alone,are you happy with the comics that you still have?
*do you think you will ever read them again regualarly
*do you think they will be worth more in the future (if so, can you find someone else to sell them to)
*will it possibly be something your family will read (such as current kids/(and/or)future kids or nephews or cousins
*do you really need the money
*are they in good condition (to be sold for more)
I did make up these questions for you for a reason, these are questions that will get your mind thinking, and hopefully help you make your decision. I know how dear things can be to you, everyone has something that they consider getting rid of. (although, nobody on here can truely tell you whether or not you have to sell them)
Good luck!!! tell me how it goes!
ps
the buyer (if you decide not to sell) will mostlikely not be too irritated, he/she must understand what it is like to make a tough decision, its (in my opinion) not rude to change your mind at all. :-)
Long story short..my dad is 53 years old,he is a very smart man but I am afraid that he is homeless.I live in another state,and up until a few months ago we hadn't spoken in a number of years due to a nasty family fued.
My father was spoiled and coddled all of his life by my grandparents,who also raised me,he always has had a good job but his parents took care of everything for him so anything he earned he kept for himself.They have both passed away and now due to some family infighting over my grandparents estate between my father and his siblings, the family home was sold and what little money my father received from that is long gone.
I feel that he is homeless,but I am afraid to ask him,I don't know if I am ready to hear it.He always seems to be at a park everytime I talk to him even late at nite and although he has been working steadily remodeling homes I don't think he is making enough to support himself.
I guess my question is should I ask him or wait for him to tell me,and once I hear the truth ,ready or not, should I offer to help him?
Try to stay possitive, but if he is homeless, you need to help him. It might be tough to handle, but you can do it, wouldnt you rather find out if your dad is homeless, than just not knowing but pretending everything is okay. If he is hiding the facts from you, its probably because he doesnt want his kid to know, because he is embarassed or ashamed. But forget not, that being homeless is very dangerous and not at all the least bit comfortable.
If he does come out with the truth, try not to be too overly shocked in front of him, try to be understanding, and offer to help him. Mostlikely, he will say no to you helping him because it once again will be embarassing, or he will want to be the "man/responsible father" and pretend not to need your help. But please dont take no for an answer, you need to force the help even if he says no. trust me, even though he is saying no, on the inside he will be screaming YES.
Good Luck, please let me know how this goes for you. And also, re-assure your father that you love and care about him. :-)

On the blackberry pearl can you record songs and use them as your ringtones and text message ringtones? Thanks!
My mom had the blackberry phone, and her ringtone was of my baby cousins singing merry christmas. So yes, you can record and use as ringtones :-)
ps.
if you want some really great (FREE) ringtones, go to www.myxertones.com it works for verizon and AT&T customers (I am 99.9% sure it works for all other companies) and its 100% safe. :-)
Good Luck! Hope I helped!!!
I like wearing zip-hoodies but the thing is, they're so expensive now! I don't like those thin ones because I feel like they're going to rip or something because they feel cheap :/ I don't have a lot of money, so can any one tell me where I can get my hands on thick zip up hoodies? It doesn't matter if they're online... I'm thinking kind of like the ones at Buckle, but WAY less money, because those are really expensive :( Thanks!
I completely understand your need for some quality hoodies that are offordable! My friend told me she shopped on this site before for a regular hoodie, and they were actually warm:
http://www.jiffyshirts.com/sweatshirts/?ref=AdW&kw=cheap%20sweatshirt&gclid=CI6r6K6E9JcCFQwDGgodJVsgCw
Old Navy has cheap ones, and GAP, and if you shop on www.amazon.com there are some good ones there too. (amazon is a site that is designed to give you items that are lower priced than the actual store. Also TJ Max (an amazing store that compares prices and has CHEAP not used designer clothing) and Marshalls which is like a TJ Max but I like TJ Max better. haha. (they are both stores)
then I also found some other sites for you too:
http://www.bizrate.com/search__keyword--full+zip+up+hoodie__nwylf--1.html
^that website has some expensive hoodies, but some cheap ones too. I know you want cheap, but I thought maybe you would like some of them. :-)
http://www.bessed.com/zipuphoodies/
^This site shows the top sites for zip up hoodies
http://www.cheapestees.com/hanulcotfulh.html?gclid=CPCIh8eI9JcCFQG7Ggode16L7A
^ This site is my favorite and I highly recomend it. You are getting about 50.00 dollar zip ups for about 20.00 dollars.
Good Luck! Hope I helped!
hey cant any1 help me , im 17 female and i have darkness under my eyes , like yellow, is this normal? people say its because i done drink enough water or sleep?
yes it is very normal, I get dark bags under my eyes too. :-) nobody likes them, and I found you an AMAZING website that actually tells you alot of information about the dark spots, how to get rid of them (theres like litterally over 15 tips) how they get there, possible reasons they are there, and it even has a video on how to help cover them up. To be honest, I even learned something new from that website too!

Good luck, let me know how it works out for you! :-)

That im only pretty in picture then i am otherwise . Is there any real reason why i feel this way ? Help please ? .

Everyone gets self concious, or has that type of problem (including me.) If I were you, I would brush it off, people saying that to you are more than likely very jealous. If you are happy with who you are, then stay that way, and never change. If you are that insecure, you can always ask your mom for a true opinion or someone that you really trust, like a best friend. But even thier opinion shouldnt change you if you are happy. Getting down on yourself is feeding everyone that is jealous of you, and makes them happier. They are no different then bullies.
Good Luck, and just remember that if you are happy with yourself, then there is no reason you shouldnt be happy. I know its hard sweety, but you have to hold your head up high. :-)

If they are nice girls then I wouldnt worry about it too much, just ask your mom nicely. Its not like you are going to a huge party with them, and if your mom says anything about it, just re-assure her that its not an every-day thing. Just make sure you can handle yourself under peer pressure, if those girls ask you to do drugs or drink or anything, do NOT say yes, you do NOT have to do anything you dont want to, that does not make you cool. Im sure you have heard that a gazillion times but never forget it, and now you have heard it a gazillion and one :-) Good Luck! ps.
If your mom says no, ask her what to say to them next time they ask you, this way you dont have to make up any excuses, :-)
I know this is pretty cliche, but I always hear things about how everyone doesn't like Canadians? Why is that? I know someone from Ontario, and she's really sweet. But other than that I know nothing about Canada. What's the big deal?
Well I am Canadian French so I hope what your saying isn't true :-) hahaha. I haven't heard necasarily anything bad about Canadians specifically. I wouldn't worry about it too much, people like to form their own opinions sometimes, based off of one experience. Sometimes people dont understand, just because one person leaves a bad taste in their mouth, doesn't mean the whole population is bad. For example, some people think that everyone in Germany are bad people because of the Holocaust, but its most definetly not true. Hope I helped :-)
okay so i just got out of a 2 year relationship about 5 or 6 months ago. im starting now to actually be over it and am ready to date and what not again. well its just hard because i dont ever like anybody! and i just never know how to act around a guy anymore its weird.. anyways theres this really hot guy at my work and i cant tell if hes into me or not. he always seems like he flirts with me but i cant exactly tell, especially because im 17 and hes 20. i know its not a huge difference or anything, but it seems like it to me? but i never know what to do or say or how to act! like i feel like i always end up saying something dumb and i dont want him to think im not interested.. i just dont know if he is and i dont want to look like a fool. help!
It seems like you really need to figure out if he would ever be interested in dating or not, so first, I would start out by talking with him, like everytime you go to work (flirting too.) Then, if you like him and you think a relationship could possibly work out between you two, you should ask him to hang out with you sometime, you can go ice skating, bowling, the mall, a movie, anywhere. If you are too uncomfortable doingthat even, then you could just have a few of his friend and a few of his friends go too. Or you could throw a party at your house (or get together at your appartment depending on where you live) and invite him. Start out small, and see where you go. :-)
Good Luck! Hope I helped :-) xoxo
ok so ive realy messed up this year, im 15 and at the begging of the year my parents trusted me completly the left me homealone for homecoming weekend, and i had a party they found out i was only grounded for a week, then i got pulled over for weed a mouth later i was gorunded for a mouth then the weekend i get ungrounded i stayed out past cerfew. and now all there trust in me is gone. i know i messed up but is there any way i can gain there trust back sooner??
For one, I understand your "untrustworthy parent" situation, I think every person growing up goes through it at least once.
I will say though, if there is one thing I am good at, its getting my parents to recognize my appology. You have come to the right girl :-)
First, I would write a very thought out, and educated letter. And I'm not just saying for you to make it heartfelt, but not truely mean anything to you, try to actually write it from your heart. (trust me, parents CAN tell.) Make your letter appologetic, but not so much about "how you are going to punish yourself forever" type thing, they do not want to hear sympathy. :-)
After you have finished your letter, also I suggest you sit down and have a serious conversation with your parents, just about how you know that you really messed up, and you really are sorry (then before you go to your room or wherever, give them the letter.)
ALso, I think it would be a really nice thing for you to just start doing nice things around your house to help out your parents. For example, help your mom with the laundry, or dinner, folding cloths, shoveling the snow (depending on where you live, its snowing by me) anything that you can do will show them that you are trying to make up for what you did.
Something to keep in mind:
Give it a day or two...or three :-) before you ask your parents to go out again (and when you do ask to go out, try to make it a small get together not a huge party, this will get them to adjust.) Also, try to (if possible, because I know this can be tough,) when you go out, maybe come home a little earlier than your cerfew.
Good luck, tell me how it goes!
ps.
weed does nothing good for your life, or body, you shouldnt buy it anymore :-) and I have said that before to people that have questions on advicenators about weed and they have given me ratings of 3's because of it, (I am not occusing you of being one of those people that give lower ratings because of it, but just saying...) but to be honest, I dont care, its worth the rating if I could speak my mind, the only reason I am speaking my mind, is because I care about the people on here I am helping out (including you.)
so me and my bf's 1 year anniversary is coming up very soon.
i wanted to get matching pillow cases that just say i love you in script on them. where can i get this done?
is there a website that i can do it on and they will ship them to me or is there a store i can go to?
First off I think that is a really cute idea!
I found you a website that will do it, and they are pretty cheap too! It also shows you a bunch of embroidered examples of ones that couples have gotten before.
http://www.customizedgirl.com/tag/pillow-case-designs?gclid=CPyWqL_I8ZcCFQEpGgodvyWzDA
*they ship too*
Also: if you go to any sewing store such as the rag shop and such, like embroidery stores (any place with sewing involved) they will mostlikely be able to do it there.
Good luck, and happy first year! :-)
Okay, so I'm completely computer-stupid. I have an HP laptop (don't know if that's relevent) with a webcam, which I've never used and don't know how. But my cousins and I really wanna do a video chat. Ummm... HOW??
Most of the people in my school use a site called www.oovoo.com its completely free, and safe, and really easy to use. I have an acer aspire laptop and I had problems with my webcam too because I couldnt find it, but once I got an oovoo occount it worked instantly and I was video chatting with my friends in no time! :-)
Also, if its not an account you want to use, typically you can go on aim and video chat (this works if you and your cousins DONT have macs)
have fun video chatting! xoxo
ps. for aim video chatting, simply open an im with the person you want to vid chat with, and there is a video button next to the font styles button. Just press on the video button, and it will invite your cousin to a videochat. :-)
What is a good moisturizer, thats good for your face, that I can apply before getting into the tanning bed.
That will keep it moist, and allow it to tan perfectly.
I have normal skin, not oily, but not dry either.
I dont regularly get acne, only when I have a visitor =].
Thanks in advance.
I have the same skin as you, I use lubirderm. It even smells really good, not too scented so it smells like perfume haha, just a nice fresh smell.
hope i helped! :-)
so this guy and I went out for a really long time/abt a year. we broke up and its been four months and his girl cheated on him now he's running to me....He tells me that he would think of me a lot when he was with other girls...i don't know wether or not to believe him....i'm not sure if he's running back because he realizes what he lost, or is because he's just tryna forget about his ex through me.....i decided that i don't wanna be involved with him in that relationship way ever again because its too much....What do you guys think about this situation?
I think that you are right, nobody can know what his true intentions were, but it seems like it could be a combination of both missing out on you and getting over his ex. In my opinion, I think he needs to take some time off from having a girlfriend, and see, for sure, if he still truely misses you. And if he does want you back, and you want him back, then that will have to be a mutual decision between the both of you to get back together, but if you still dont want to get involved than thats a bit of tough luck. It seems like you have the situation under control, and I think you are doing the right thing. (Although, nobody on advicenators can tell you what to do, I can very well give my opinion.) Good luck, let me know how it goes for you!
kayy i really like this guy but he sees me as a friend so how do i get out of the friends zone?
thanks
loveboys
Try to flirt with him, and spend a little alone time with him. Maybe you could hang out with him say at the movies, or go to the mall? Get common intrests in conversations, and tell him small things like, you look really [cute/hot] today. good luck! hope i helped :-)
