one of 'system of a downs' songs is called B.Y.O.B what does that stand for/mean?

In this song, B.Y.O.B stands for Bring Your Own Bombs, though it stands for many other phrases also.

Hey guys..i am 15 and i am about to get my permit..so my first car is going to be a 2005 Chevrolet Colorado Z71 with leather, big tires, and a system..is that bad like for a first car?

You're lucky, since most teenagers do not receive a new car when they start to drive. It's not a bad car at all, as your first car.

Okay, I have this REALLY good riddle that 80% of kindergarteners got compared to 17% of senior COLLEGE students... I know the answer, too!!
(And they all have the same answer)

What is greater than God?
More evil than the devil?
The rich need it
The poor have it
And if you eat it, you'll die!!


Answer me, or guess, and I'll post the answer on your feedback!

Nothing is greater than God.
Nothing is more evil than the devil.
The rich need nothing.
The poor have nothing.
And if you eat nothing, you'll die.

"Nothing" is the answer to this riddle.

When someone says you are a push over...what do they mean?

A push over is someone who will do anything and not say "no" and is easily taken advantage of.

You are stuck in a room with no windows or doors. a solid room. Only things in this room is a mirror and a table. How do you escape?

Look in the mirror, see what you saw, take the saw, cut the table in half; two halves make a whole, then climb out the hole.

hey ok well i am 15 and i am in love with ym best friends little sister. i have known her my entire life and i have never thought of her as more then just like a litte sister i guess but her bro is like rele protective of her how do i ask her out without making him pissed and risk hurting my relationship with either of them or theirs with eachother she has been acting wierd around us when i am over there adn she doesnt hang out with us as much and she has a bunch of guys that r just friends that r over there all teh time too adn i feel weird like i suddenly become all protective like her bro! please help

How old is your best friend's little sister exactly? Brothers tend to be protective, when it comes to guys dating their little sister. You can't help it that she has guy friends over that she's hanging out with. If you really want to risk your friendship with your best friend, ask his sister out and if it doesn't work out, then it wasn't meant to be. Yes, he may get mad but you can always talk to him before hand and find out if he would have a problem if one of his good friends dated his sister. Your question confused me a bit.

I was sitting in my room listening to my favorite band The Smashing Pumpkins when it occured to me that i am completly over obsessed about this band. So here's my question, is it ok to live your life constantly thinking about them?

If you're constantly thinking about them, then I wouldn't say this is "okay" but if you are just listening to their music a lot, then that's fine.

My AIM hasn't been working for 2 days. When I click on the little AIM guy to sign on, nothing happens for about 10 seconds, then the sign on screen flashes on the screen for like a half second and then goes away. I don't think it's a virus on my computer, because I already scanned it, and it does the same thing on my parent's computer which I don't use very often. Is this happening to anyone else? What should I do? I was considering deleting it, and downloading the newer version. Would that fix it? Please help. Thank you!!

Downloading and upgrading your AOL instant messenger would fix this. I had this problem also and once I upgraded my AIM, it worked and the problem went away.

You know how people always get those surveys on MySpace? with long lists of questiosn like "do you prefer nestea or lipton?" or "eaten an oreo in the past month?" where do you get those?

Those types of surveys can be found at http://www.kwiz.biz, specifically http://www.kwiz.biz/simplesurveys/do-survey.php. My friends tends to take many of these surveys to post on her Myspace.

i dont have my period yet and im 13years old. all of my friends have it too. is there like something wrong with me?

There's nothing wrong with you at all. Some girls start menstruation early and some tend to start when they are around sixteen years old. You just have to wait until the time comes. Just because your friends have started their periods, it doesn't mean there's something wrong with you.

Does anyone know what time it would be in conneticut if it is 6:30am in Michigan. Or in otherwords, how many hours later is conneticut from mich.

Michigan and Connecticut are both in the same time zone, the Eastern Time Zone, so it would be 6:30am in both states.

i have aim and i just added someone as a buddy today and i got this messege saying "{buddy} is idle". What does that meen? Dont tell me im dumb unless you want a 1

It means that they have been inactive and aways from their computer for more than twenty minutes, at least. Basically, if you instant message this user, you probably won't get a response until they return.

I am trying to get my picture in my advice column but all i have is a box with an X what do i need to do?

You need to go to your Profile Settings (on the left side of the page) to upload a picture onto your column. You can either host it on an image hosting site such as http://www.imageshack.us or registering at http://www.photobucket.com. Once you've uploaded a picture there, copy the direct link and paste the URL in the proper section. If you want to upload a picture from your computer, make sure it's under 15K or else you need to shrink it. This page will explain how to resize your picture: http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?f=36. I think hosting a picture from another site is easier and you don't have to worry about shrinking the picture either.

I see alot of people put theire e mail and IM stuff on theire collumn, but do these people realy like to get emails from people on this site?

When I posted my screen name up, a few people started to instant message me and it was quite annoying, since they would ask random questions. It depends, since some columnists like receiving messages and emails and some don't. I mean, an instant message here and there is fine, but it gets to the point where you don't want to be instant messaged, at least for me.

Hello. I was just at my friends yesterday and from about 6 to 10 she was on the computer talking to her "internet boy friend" so i hung out with her sister. Then this morning same thing over again. Her dad even told her that it was rude and she didnt care and she knew i was upset. Shes the one that invited me so it makes very little sense too me. Shes my best friend and i dont want to stop being her friend or going to her house but shes a little to attached to her computer. What should i do?

You need to talk to her and inform her that there are many other things she can do, like hanging out with you, and not being on the computer. Let her know how you feel and that you want to do something else, rather than watching her talking to her "internet boyfriend". When she calls to invite you over, simply make plans with her and hang out somewhere else. She'll eventually figure out there's more to life than being addicted to the computer.
