about

My name's Jennifer, but I'm more commonly known as Jen or Sporkster. I love lots of things/people including God; volleyball and soccer, my two favorite sports; and cheese. I also love Pi, but that's a story for another day.
I've been answering questions on Advicenators for over three years now, so I'm pretty experienced with it. I love answering questions and helping you out anyway I can, so if you've got a question, just ask me!
Ask me about: Christianity, athletics, physical fitness, love-life, relationships, friendships, HTML queries, book suggestions, music suggestions, musical theory, history, English (or Spanish) grammar, Paint Shop Pro 8, skin problems, sports injuries, "punk" fashion, nutrition, etc.

Q: What does 512k amount to in bytes? I need to know for a website design.
A: I dunno, but a Javascript I've heard of can help you. Look on javascripts.com and other Java websites. I used it one time but can remember exactly where I got it. Help this helps.
Q: COULD BORING GET ANY MORE BORING!!! I'm stuck in the house with my little sister and it's sooo boring. The computer and tv and playstation are losing there fun...so any creative ideas on what i could do to when stuck in the house?? I'm 14 and a girl.
A: Hm... typical teenager. Why don't you try reading a book or two? How about clean your room? Maybe clean the bathroom. Something useful instead of watching TV.
Q: Are the showers in Middle school sanitary??
A: I don't know about your school, but our school... ugh. No. It's all mildewy and nasty in our showers. If you do take a shower make sure you take flip-flops or sandels, whatever you want to call them. You certainly don't want to get toe-fungus...
Q: O.K there is this boy that likes me. I don't like him but I feel bad... Like how do I say no without hurting his feelings? I had already told him no but he keeps asking me out... I need help!
A: I am the *friend* Aeromonkey was talking about. Ugh, when this guy keeps asking you out just make sure he understands that you mean NO. Be gentle about it, but put emphasis on the fact that you aren't interested. Explain to him that you just like him as a friend, nothing more. If he still doesn't get a clue hire a bodyguard. - Sporkster
Q: 17/f
Hey!
oookkk i need major advice lol cause my friends def. dont give me any. i really like this guy, but he does a lot of stuff i dont like. he smokes a lot, drinks to much (i like to drink but he drinks all the time) and hes just kinda known as a "bad boy". a lot of people tell me i could do a lot better. he gets into trouble a lot and starts fights with people, but im really comfortable with him and i like the way he makes me feel. i dont know what balances out more or if its worth going through stuff he does... and if i should keep being with him cause i really like him but i really dont wanna get stuck in his drama and the stuff he does. i dont want to lead him on either... so if i should get away from him i need to. hes a really nice guy and he has a lot of friends and i know he would never hurt me... but the things he does really bothers me... and i dont like to see him get hurt or get in fights. I NEED MAJOR ADVICE!!!

A: Why'd you go out with him in the first place? If you love him a lot, and you don't want to hurt him... Have you tried talking to him? Ask him to consider your position. Ask him to stop doing wrong things, because if he's an alcoholic, he could end up hurting YOU. If he doesn't want to try to stop for you, he doesn't really love you. Leave him if he doesn't get his act together, but don't be mean about it. Hope my advice helps.
Q: Who Likes GoodCharlotte. .
Who Likes Simple Plan
Who Likes Bowling For Soup!
I LIKE THEM ALLLLL!
A: Good Charlotte: SUCKS
Simple Plan: MOST of their songs suck
Bowling for Soup: SUCKS
Therefore, I HATE ALL OF THEM!
Q: i go to winnfield middle school and we have school uniforms and i started a petition to get rid of them. so i had alot of names until the principal caught me and said she didn't authorize it. how can i get rid of uniforms without having to get it authorized. i thought about gettin people to sign it off of school grounds.
p.s. if anybody here goes to winnfield middle school e-mail me at edt_09@yahoo.com
A: I would devise a petition outside of school. I mean, your principal is probably the one that decided for you to wear uniforms. So, get everyone to sign it outside of school. I hope you get this worked out. My school requires us to wear uniforms, but we have a wide variety of choices. Like, maybe 15 different colors of Polos or Oxfords and a choice of skirts, kilts, or slacks in Denim, Navy, or Khaki. :-P Not that bad. Maybe you could compromise or something like that. Hope my advice helps.
Q: I'm 13 years old, a girl, and I go to school with this boy. We are always flirting and I like him a lot. I would like to date him, but he has a girlfriend. He is wonderful, and I would do anything to go out with him. Is there anyway to get him to like me more than her? or some other way for him to dump her and to be with him? Any way for me to be with him is ok, I am open to any suggestions.
A: You may really like this guy and you may really want to go out with him. But if he already has a girlfriend it's WRONG for you to do stuff like that. It's really bad of you. Think of how you make that girl feel. You should wait until he decides he doesn't like that girl anymore before trying to seduce him, as it seems that's what you're trying to do...
Q: What can I do about those annoying idiots online who never bother to spell anything right? (a.k.a. newbies). They're really annoying! Everytime I run into one online I just want to stab a fork into an electrical socket... It tingles, but then you die. Can anyone help?
A: I feel your pain. Chatspeak burns my eyes. My Advice: Take and ax and chop the computer into pieces. Then burn it and eat it. That is all.
Q: I think my big toe is interesting. I know that's weird, but I can't help staring at it. What should I do?!
A: Really? I think my big toe looks like Elvis, but you don't see ME going around and asking for advice. Stop looking at your toes. People think that's weird.
Q: But the people they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they can't understand
Your grandsons, they won't understand
On top of this I ain't ever gonna understand
A: understand.... what? Weird poem, if you ask me. I guess that's what it was in the Random Weirdos...
nevermind
Q: I need to push some crap that's going on to the side and teach a doggie my aunt has.
He is full of energy at the moment, and I want to teach him tricks, the usual ones, but I don't know how.
The websites can confuse me a bit...I want to know what you all have to say on how to teach a dog, or recommend better websites?
---
I know it's my aunt's dog, and I should let her teach him, blah blah blah, but she is a very busy person.
A: I taught my dog how to shake like this. I took a piece of dog food and held it about a food above her head, got her to look at it, and took her paw in my hand. I said: "SHAKE!" loudly about 5 times, then I shook her paw. I put her paw down. Then I told her to shake. When she put her paw in my hand I gave her the treat. I kept repeating this until she would do it without me giving her a treat. Hope this helps.
Q: i am addicted to the computer. what do i do??
A: I have the same, exact, problem. I used to spend like 7 hours a day on the computer. But I starting playing sports and doing after school activities. That really helped be cut it back to like two hours a day.
Q: Does anyone know of a reliable, free file host? I need it to host mainly animated gifs, mp3s, and jpeg files. If anyone knows a good one, please reply. Thanks!
A: Well, I dunno if you would consider this GOOD or not, but I host mine on Geocities. Http://www.geocities.com I hope my advice helps
Q: i watch a little girl on a friday6 she drives me crazy what shouyld i do to calm her down
A: Um, a little girl? When I babysit I always bring some coloring books, crayons, and cheese. The kids love coloring (if you could call it that...) and when they get mouthy I stuff their mouth with cheese. I find this an efficient way of babysitting. Hope you do too... lol
Q: I don't meant to sound mean, but if a person has flab hanging out, they should not wear tight, revealing clothes that a skinny person would wear. I'm tired of seeing women in particular wearing halter and short tops with their flab hanging out the sides, and their bottoms straining the seams of their tight, low-cut jeans. I'm not a skinny mean girl saying this, I have extra pounds on me and I try to dress in a way that flatters me and hides what I don't want to show off. Do these women think they look good? Are they in denial? What is the deal?
A: I agree with you completely, only I think that NO ONE should wear clothes like that. It's slutty, and that's gross. I guess they're in denial and it makes them feel better to be wearing those clothes. If you see any like that in a store or something just think to yourself "I'm glad I don't dress like that, I actually look nice."
Q: Are you supposed to wear underwear while playing volleyball in spandex?
A: Um... well, this is an odd question. I suppose you're a girl? I would wear underwear. I definitely would. 0_o Like I said, odd question.
Q: some people say flirt or ask him out but its more than that im afraid of rejection and i cant get over it what if my friends or his make fun of me?
i need advice fast !!!
A: ? I guess you're talking about a guy you like? Well, flirting doesn't get you anywhere. Most guys think that girls who flirt are cheap and easy. And, about asking him out: Girls aren't supposed to ask guys out. That's just how it goes. I would suggest talking to this guy and getting to know him. Find out what his interests are and compare them to yours. For ex. the only BAD thing about my boyfriend is that he's a State Fan *pukes*. (I'm a Carolina Fan) But that's basically the only thing we don't have in common. The more you have in common, the better the chances. If he likes you, he'll ask you out! Just be yourself around him because you want a boyfriend that likes you for who you are, not for something you're not.
Q: no
A: No ... what? No, I won't go to the movies with you? No, I won't eat a caramel apple? No, I want cheese instead of tofu?
Q: When at school, sometimes I kinda go crazy by taking the seagulls from off the grass and eating them, and then I throw rocks and berries at my friends. Just yesterday, I went streaking and painted myself in tiger stripes through math class. In the computer lab I take all the cds and break them. I've broken a computer one time too. Also I eat pages of textbooks when teachers don't watch. I burned some of the books in the library and then ate them. (Actually, they're pretty tasty with some ketchup.) Last week I jumped on a lunch table and pissed on a yard duty. I am 26 years old and I am still in the 8th grade. Is this normal?
A: No, that is not normal, 0_o You freak! I suggest calling up your friendly neighborhood psycho-ward so they can get you a nice padded house and a straight white jacket to call your very own.
