COURTESY FLUSH
The act of flushing the toilet the instant the poop hits the water. This reduces the amount of air time the poop has to stink up the bathroom. This can help you avoid being caught doing the WALK OF SHAME.
wont flushing make yucky water fly up into your butt?
Sounds weird, but I guess you're supposed to stand up enough so that it doesn't.
why would non-married people wear rings? not on ring finger but elsewhere. what does that mean if they have several?
People wear rings because rings are pretty. I wear a ring just because I like it. Some people wear promise rings- it's saying that they won't have sex until they're married. It doesn't mean anything if people have several rings.
Jumping in general increases your chance of getting taller.
False. Height is genetic. However, I have a friend who had treatments for her back where they put her on sort of a stretching apparatus, which increased the space between the vertebrae in her back. As a result, nutrients could get to the in between places and she ended up "growing" about half an inch.
i wear contact lenses (soft ones) and i change them every two weeks.
they usually stay blue-ish (theyr not tinted theyr just kinda light clear blue) for way longer then that (ive kept them in for a month once). and they never really give me problems.
its only been a week since i put this pair in, and already they are completely clear andirritating my eyes after an hour of wearing them.
whats wrong?
Sometimes, you find a pair of contact lenses that just sucks. There's no other way to put it. If they're irritating your eyes, go ahead and take them out and wear glasses (if you have them) for the rest of the day and then try putting a different pair in tomorrow morning. Also, if you have allergies, that can irritate your eyes.
okay, so im 14/f.. and my mom took me to the dermatologist today, and they told me that they recommended me to go on accutane,, i have to go in for 2 pregnancy tests, before they give me the medicine,, so i still have time to think about what i want to do....truth is, IM REALLY SCARED!!! i've read about all kinds of horrible side effects that this medicine can cause,, two of my really close friends are also on accutane,, and they have experienced relatively no side effects,, but the thing is, my acne is just on my forehead, and shoulders, nowhere else? if anyone else knows anyone on accutane, or is on it,, please, give me some counsel,, because im not quite sure what i want to do yet.
Is this your first time getting acne medication from a dermatologist? If so, then the next time you go to the dermatologist ask if they can prescribe you something less strong, like a topical medication like Differin, Retin-A, Evoclin, or Duac. Right now I am using tetracycline, which is a pill that you take once a day. It works really well. Accutane is really for people that have had no luck whatsoever with other medications, or people that have terrible, terrible acne. So if you've never tried acne meds before, I would recommend that you try some of the ones I've listed before you do Accutane.
I have a friend who is on Accutane and it works well for him with no side effects.
ok.. me and my boyfriend are both virgins right..
and we want to be able 2 have a condom around JUST INCASE yah know..
and we are both 2 afraid 2 go 2 our parents cuz they would FLIP OUT!!! but we are not sure of what the legal age of buying condoms in texas is..
can anyone help me me out without criticizeing me on the subject??
There's not an age limit. If you are old enough to drive, they have them at gas stations. I heard once that if the actual act of buying condoms really freaks you out, that's a sign that you should really think about whether you should have sex or not. I'm not criticizing you or anything, but I just thought it was a useful statement. But yeah, anyone can buy them.

badfish (sublime tribute) is playing at lupo's heartbreak hotel in providence april 18th and i was wondering what the age limit is. my friend went last year to a taking back sunday concert but my dad said certain concerts have age limits..?
i checked the website but couldn't find anything, does anyone know? i don't wanna buy tickets then not get in lol
also, sublime is one of my favorite bands but since i can't see them, has anyone seen badfish? are they any good?
thanks
Hey, it would be best to find a number for the venue and call them and ask about the age limit for that particular show. Here's the number that I found for them: (401) 272-5876
If there is an age limit (which I doubt), they will definitely know.
EDIT: Oh, and I just looked on their website (lupos.com) and it does not say that there is an age limit for that particular show.
is 7th or 8th grade too young to have sex?
also, is it possible to have like dry sex with your clothes on?
Yes and yes but it's most likely a bad idea if you're still in junior high.
hey all.
right im 16, im an athlete i do alot of sport my life revolves around sport and self image. basically i have an abnormally large back for a start. this is my story;
basically i was in school i had cramp in the trapezius so i rubbed it to make it stop hurting. Then i noticed my spine was out of place this was about a week ago, so i went to hospital and had an x-ray. i found out i had kyphosis which is a forward curvature of the spine. and then i asked why i had lateral curvetures of the spine and he went thats normal then walked off and didnt even answer any of my questions. so i look it up and find out that lateral curverture of the spine could be asymmetry or scoliosis. i have a picture of my back and because of my kyphosis you can clearely see the curv so if some of you could take alook and if you could give me your opinions, i am going to see the doctor tommorow becuase the hospital was poor. But it would realy help me if i got some peoples opinions.

Hey there. I'm not a doctor, but I know that scoliosis is fairly common when it comes to cases of spine curvature. Most of the time you can't really physically see signs of slight spinal problems with scoliosis. Some of my friends have it. Anyway, since you can kinda somewhat see where your spine is curved, I would think that it's scoliosis. I just looked up some pictures of scoliosis x-rays, and yours does not seem to be very severe. It's definitely something, but that doesn't mean that it will hinder you as an athlete. If you're concerned about how your back looks, it really took me a while to even tell where your spine is messed up. And it doesn't even look weird at all. Anyway, your doctor can definitely tell you more, but I've seen people with way screwed up spines that can still play sports and stuff so I doubt it's anything to worry about.
Okay I just got my SAT scores back...
540 math
450 reading
380 writing
It was my first time taking it and i was kind of caught off guard... so i just decided to answer EVERYTHING... even the grid in questions in the math (as in just pick a random number) because i COMPLETELY forgot that wrong answers are minus points... so i didnt leave ANYTHING blank...
I also have almost straight A's in all my classes... just one B usually and rest A's... and i take all the honors and AP classes i can...
So with that will I be accepted to USF??? I know no one really knwos but What's the SAT score that USF is looking for??? (University of South Florida)
And what are the other school's like? usually...
also does anyone knwo about standard SAT score for University of Florida??? (everyone was surprised when my friend with 970 SAT score got accepted)
Check out collegeboard.com. They have the SAT and ACT standards for many colleges.
Here are the standards for USF:
Math 510-610
Critical Reading 500-600
Writing 470-570
SAT scores are not the only things that determine if you can get into a school. If your SAT scores are not good but you have loads of extracurriculars, volunteer hours, and a high class rank then you still have a good chance of getting into your school. And those AP classes look good on your transcript too. Since it was your first time taking the SAT, take it as many times as you can before you have to apply for college. It's not a test you can study for, but to do well on it you just have to practice actually taking the test. In a way, it's a measure of your test-taking abilities. Since you know that you screwed up by answering every question, now you know that you will do better next time by not doing that.
What does someone mean when they say that they "have to pick a bone with her"?
Do you mean "bone to pick"? Example: Sam had a bone to pick with Sally. Sam is irritated at Sally.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bone+to+pick
Urbandictionary did not define "pick a bone."
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how the Constitution limits presidential power....?? I would really appreciate a thorough answer! :)
A great example of that is separation of powers, and checks and balances. Okay, so you have the three branches of government: executive, judicial, and legislative. The executive is the president. Because of separation of powers, the branches have equal power. And they keep each other "in check" by using checks and balances, where they can veto each other.
The process by which a bill becomes a law is also an example of this. Here's one of my favorite School House Rock videos:

I just found this one too, which might help you out:

where did you get yours?
how do i buy online btw? what if the dress doesnt fit, etc? ahh
I would highly suggest going to bridal stores in the area where you live instead of buying online. When you buy online, if it doesn't fit, you can't return it. Also, when you try on dresses at a shop, you can see how they actually look on you before you buy it, and most of the time the shop can alter it for you if it's too long or whatever. This year I ended up buying a dress that I thought I would hate, but when I tried it on it was really pretty. So go ahead and go online and look at dresses that you might like, but I really think you should go try on dresses at a store before you order online. Bridal shops and some department stores normally have great dresses for prom.
This year (my sophmore yr of high school) I have started taking an interest in guys. I've had a couple boyfriends, but now I am single. In about 6 weeks I have band banquet, and I would like to have a date. Any advice on how to go about finding one? thankyou.
I've found that it's really fun to go with one of your good guy friends rather than someone random, even if you kind of like the random guy. Go with someone you know really well. Going to a dance/formal is kind of weird and awkward for an actual date. If your good guy friends are already taken, then go through your yearbook or facebook/myspace friends to get ideas of who to ask. My friends always help me out with this- we ask advice from each other on who we should ask. My friends suggested that I ask someone that I had not even thought about asking, and I ended up having a great time with him. Just make sure that you're asking someone who would be fun to hang out with. If you have never had an actual fun conversation with them before at school, then don't ask them. But if they're the type of person that you would be comfortable with talking to on the phone, then you will most likely have a great time with them and it won't be awkward. I hope you have fun!
what do you buy to write on cars: http://a317.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/78/l_d22a9e85d35a032c691ea18250bd753c.jpg
People sometimes use shoe polish or "car chalk", which you can find at Wal-Mart.
I went running with a friend a couple of days ago, and I got goose bumps, then my skin kind of became numb, and I started getting weird small 'lumps' on the surface of my forearms. Why did this happen? Is it because I'm used to being inside a heated house most of the time? I was wearing capri workout pants, and my legs began to turn red and started to chafe. I was wearing a plain tshirt, and noticed the bumps on there. This happened when I was went into the cold water in the beach. Is this normal?
When you work out, like running, it's normal for your skin to look a little different. For example, when you burn fat, your skin sometimes turns red. One of my friends is on swim team, and after swimming a lot one day he noticed that his skin was red. It was because he was burning fat. It's not a medical condition or anything, it's just your body's natural responses to doing stuff like working out or going into cold water at the beach. It's kind of like the blood rushing to the surface thing. Also, I run a lot, and sometimes after sweating I get random chills/goosebumps. If you don't work out much and then you start working out, weird crap happens, but it's completely normal.
is it possible for me to increase my jumps and learn how to do my splits in 2 weeks????
In two weeks? That's a little extreme. But if you stretch intensely for the next two weeks like the columnist below said, then it will definitely improve- but I doubt you will be able to have perfect splits in that amount of time. You're going to have to work your butt off for the next two weeks to see where it can get you. Good luck!
can a fat girl wear skinny jeans?
It's humanly possible, but to me skinny jeans only look good on about 30% of the people that wear them, if that gives you an idea (and those people are normally near anorexically skinny). If you have any type of shape, not necessarily if you're fat, but if you've got hips and thighs it's going to look weird anyway.
My mom has some diamond earrings but theres a problem...one of the diamonds fell out and she lost the part the holds it (the actual earring part). So what we're working with is a whole earring (earring part and diamond) and the diamond from the other earring. My question is, can we purchase just the earring part?
If you take the earring that you still have to a jewelry store, they can definitely make another earring part that matches it. Or, they can reset both diamonds if your mom finds a setting she likes more. I've had this done before and it's pretty easy for them to do. It's very fortunate that your mom still has both diamonds! It doesn't take more than a few minutes for them to put the diamond in a new earring.
I read a book from one of the alice series but it talked about how one of the girls didnt want to wear a tampon because they were saving their virginity fo when their older are you considered that you are not a virgin if you wear a tampon because im 13 and wear tampons for sports
You lose your virginity when you have sex. Tampons are not sex. Tampons are okay. You are a virgin.
