my worst enemy kathryn is talking shit about me(well she always does) , what would be a nice way to tell her she is the essence of evil and i would perferably not talk to her eever again?
(link)
"kathryn, youre the essence of evil and i would prefer not to talk to you ever again." sounds good to me. hey, if she isnt nice to you, you have no reason to be nice to her.


I'm out of toothpaste. Is it socially acceptable to use ground up Mentos as a tooth-care substitute? (link)
sure. i mean, its better than using peanut butter or vaseline. its still minty fresh. why not?


so i'm sailing aboard a ship n noticed there are a few holes in it. microsoft has told my friend that we shud fill them. what shud we fill them with??? we could use socks but we rnt sure cos they mite just soak up the water from the sea n the earth will b dry! can u suggest a sock substitte? (link)
playdoh. or duct tape. duct tape fixes all. youd be surprised.


Is it rude to tell someone what they are doing is extremely rude/disgusting? For example, a friend of mine chews with her mouth open, should I tell her it drives me crazy or just let her continue? (link)
yeah, you really should tell her. maybe she doesnt even know she's doing it, you never know. you dont want her to embarass herself, she's your friend. you'd be helping her out. unfortunately, i have no tact, so i cant help you out on HOW to tell her. me, i'd just say "can you stop chewing with your mouth open, youre getting food all over my face!" dont be like me.


I have a disease of the nervous system and can no longer write with my dominent hand. Should I give up writing? Im in the 8th grade and this is very frustrating! (link)
dont give up on writing! youre gonna need writing for the rest of your life. learn to write with the other hand. hey, if i can learn to write backwards as fast as i do just from years of writing things on bus windows, you can be ambidextrous.


My parents want me to go to a state college just because it's cheaper. I want to go to a private university because I like the opportunities they have better and it provides a more Christian atmosphere. My parents don't seem to understand that idea, they just think it's all about the money. I'm willing to pay everything, loans included, and I'm going to get a crapload of scholarships because I'm fairly intelligent. But my parents don't understand that. What should I do? (link)
if youre willing to work hard to get all the scholarships just go for it. if you pay the application fees by yourself, they dont really have any control over where you apply. if you get enough money through scholarships and grants and you get accepted to the private school you want, what are they gonna do, say no?


If you babysit four little kids by yourself for three hours, around how much should you be getting paid? (link)
i think $30 or more. i usually charge around $5 per kid per hour. three hours isnt that long, but four kids is a lot.


Should I get another job and move to another city now, or will my current job get better soon? (link)
depends on how long your current job has sucked butt. if its been a long long time, go ahead and movie. if you just started working there, give it time.


What should i sell? (link)
if you can make jewelry of any kind, do that. beaded or woven necklaces and bracelets, or hemp. people like hemp. or you could go to a bargain place and get one of those boxes of candy that are like 5 million candy bars for like $3 and sell the candy bars for a dollar a piece. people like candy too.


I am debating putting in a new exhaust into my car. I picked up a moderate 50$ exhaust from a local garage. They said they were giving me a decent deal on it. I'm hoping that this new exhaust will give me a lot more power and speed. If it doesnt, what can I try to make my car faster?

I own an '89 GMC S-10. Help. (link)
okay, i know little to nothing about cars and even i can tell you, i'm pretty sure a $50 exhaust system will not do much, if anything. i dont know what will make your car faster, though.


How do you get blood off the walls and carpet because I spilled alot of it while killi*cough* I mean choping up meat and it was all bloody and now everything else is all bloody too. (link)
1. Mix one teaspoon of a neutral detergent (a mild detergent containing no alkalies or bleaches) to a cup of luke-warm water. Blot.

2. Mix one tablespoon of household ammonia with a half-cup of water. Blot.

3. Sponge with clean water. Blot.

as for walls - just paint over it.


Which is better, brownies made from brownie mix or brownies made from scratch? (link)
i hear that things from scratch are always better, or at least make people think theyre better. theres just a "better" type of connotation when someone says "i made them from scratch!" y'know?


This is going to sound dumb, but how do you put your four-ways (lights) on in a car? (Does each car have a different setting for that?) I checked my car's manual and can't seem to find any information regarding them. (link)
four ways? you mean like your hazard/emergency blinkers? there should be a little button somewhere around that has a red triangle with another red triangle in it. push that, or turn it or whatever you have to do.


Is it better to dance and look really stupid or not dance at all? Should I try taking danceing lessons? (link)
i think its better to look stupid. then again, i like to dance and i think its dumb not to. as long as youre having fun and it shows whilst looking stupid, i dont think it makes a difference.


If you're too shy to ask someone out in person is it creepy to write them a note? (link)
if youre 11, no. if youre older than 14, yes.


I met a guy in a chat room....We have a lot in common and a lot of the same interests. I am 15 and he is 37...he looks way younger. I have been hanging out with him after school and at the mall. I want to date him. I am very attracted to him and he is SO nice and sweet to me. He takes me to lunch, etc. Should I get involved with him even though we have a huge age difference? I don't think it makes a difference. (link)
negative. a 22 year age difference may not make a difference when youre 30 and 52, but when its 15 and 37... come on. thats like middle-of-high-school and midlife-crisis. i'm sorry, but you just have to ask yourself whats wrong with a 37 year old man who is attracted to a 15 year old girl. could turn out to be bad.


I would like to get some sort of animal as a pet. The only thing is that my dad is allergic to furry animals, and my family is very busy, so we couldn't give the pet 24/7 care that often. so, what kind of pet should I get? (link)
do you like snakes? theyre kind of expensive, but i think you only need to feed them their mice about once a week. and they are pretty independent, they dont really need a lot of care, just a cage cleaning and a feeding once a week or so.
but parents dont usually go for snakes, y'know?


I'm 22, almost finished with college, and currently living with my parents. I desparately want to move out of my house, and I would like to live with my boyfriend, but I am vacillating between both sides. I don't know if I should just go ahead and get a place with him, or stay at home until I graduate (with all my bills and tuition paid, therefore no financial stress on me). (link)
i guess it all depends on how badly you want out of that house and how long it would be until you get your own place if you dont. if your boyfriend is financially stable on his own, maybe you could move in with him making sure he understands that youre not quite stable yet and the both of you can do what you can.


There's this smart, great, funny, talented, awesome, well-rounded guy at my school that girls would fall head over heels for to date. There's just one problem: he's black, and we attend a predominantly white school. Many people wouldn't have a problem with this, but his parents won't let him date girls that aren't black, and all of the black girls in our area are "ghetto", and he's not like that. My friend asked him to prom and they were both psyched but his parents won't let him go because she's white. He's never had a girlfriend and I feel really bad. Thoughts on this issue? (link)
augh, situations liks this piss me off. he can date whoever he wants, he's a big boy and he needs to show it. his parents will get used to it.


I'm very confused. I have major crushes with 3 guys. One I've known since second grade. two of the mentioned males are in eighth grade, the other in sixth. I'm in seventh. What do I do? (link)
if you're in 7th grade... dont worry about it. i know, having a boyfriend seems like something really important and something you're really ready and able to do. but honestly, its not. dont put yourself through all that stress for something that isnt that big of a deal. and if you have crushes on all 3 of these guys, itd be hard to pick just one, y'know? so take the easy way out and just be friends with all 3 of them.
