Watch a video of "Rock N' Roll High School." and then learn to sing the theme from it and you're golden. *lol

Or you could run your school campaign like they run campaigns in the real world:

1. Accuse your opponent of being a Muslim and having Al-Qaeda sympathies.

2. Ask them to produce their longform birth certificates.

3. Accuse them of being the Anti-Christ, a Fascist, a Communist, French, an RC Cola drinker, whatever. Just accuse them of something.

4. Call for an end to the school nurse because that constitutes government provided healthcare, which is inimical to freedom.

5. Accuse your opponents of being tax and spend liberals while you run the school treasury into bankruptcy after you're elected.

6. Say that you love the troops more than your opponents.

7. Get yourself a running mate with an IQ of 76 in order to appeal to the evangelical vote.

8. If you lose, blame it on ACORN.

9. If you lose, blame it on illegal undocumented immigrant votes.

10. Promise to give the school's naming rights to the Children of Bodom.


So, everytime my boyfriend is stressed or dissatisfied with his life, he goes into massive escapism mode. That means I can expect him on fanfiction or video games when he gets home till we go to sleep. We always end up not having sex during these periods, and when he'll express a lot of interest in doing just that, he'll bail out or I will because its apparent his mind is elsewhere. I dont know how to get him to focus on the present instead of constantly being dissatisfied with what he dosent have. He wants to make more money, hes stressed about finance. I am too, but I also know that if you live in the future and the past you will destroy the present, and never be happy. I'm tired of his constant dissatisfaction with his life when I give him everything I can. I don't want to have to complain, and he rarely wants to properly talk about it. What to do? (link)
So what this boils down to is a guy who isn't there for you emotionally or physically.

So you're continued attraction to him is what exactly?

Do you have a father who also wasn't very available to you emotionally or maybe not at home that much or at all? Women tend to repeat in their intimate lives their relationships with their fathers. Therefore, he's being like daddy becomes attractive to you because this is what you know and all women want their men to be their daddy anyway.

My solution: dump him, learn from this, really do some introspection as to why you put up with this nonsense, and then move on to someone who will be healthier for you to be with.


I don't feel depressed but I don't want to live just because no matter how exciting I try to make my life, I still feel bored and lifeless and devoid. I don't feel suicidal all the time just occasionally, and I don't know what to do :( (link)
Yeah, you and every other teenager.

Here is what is going on:

Because you are growing up, you are still attempting to find out who you are. You are also insecure and more and more teens aren't getting enough sleep, which only amplifies any feelings of loneliness and alienation. A teenager, say studies, should be getting ten hours a day of sleep.

The main thing is to have a sense of proportion. There is very little you are likely to encounter that makes suicide necessary (for example, having a painful terminal disease). You guys are very present oriented and worried about what others think of you, which only makes things more confusing. But if you take control of your life since your life is one only you can live, then some of this insecurity will disappear.

Just relax and let nature take its course. Your brain will keep developing until about age 25, so you're only just a little more than halfway in that growth process. Explore, educate yourself and don't get caught up in drama or people's bs. If 25 seems far off, wait until you get to age 50 and life feeling like it has gone by in the blink of an eye.


well im gonna be a greaser for something at school and i don know what i should use for my hair so please help me out (link)
Back in the day they used to use Dippity Doo, which was a kind of hair gel.

Do not use Vaseline, which may clog up your bathtub or sink drain when you wash it out. And washing it out will be a bastard.

Brylcreem would probably work if applied right.


i think i might have a computer virus.
i was on facebook, and all of a sudden a popup comes up and it says that i have 7 viruses found, it's come up about 5 times tonight, and it's not my regular virus protection software. i tried to open up my regular one, and it wouldnt let me. the popup is called " MS Removal Tool" i tried opening the control panel to see if something got downloaded, and it's not on there. sometimes when i close out of the program, it talks about registration, and when it finally closes, my home screen will be blue. i'll click on the personalize tab, and then the desktop background tap, and it'll go back to normal automatically without me having to change the picture. can anyone help me? (link)
It's a scam.

Get Firefox with NoScript and you won't see popups again nor will you never see most ads.

Btw, I use Avast, which is a free antivirus program and it's really strong. I recommend it over Norton and definitely McAfee, for example. Avast will block any page with malware on it before it has a chance to execute. You should have at least two different anti-virus programs on your computer.

You can also use Malwarebytes to help clean up any nasties that might already be on your computer. It does a pretty thorough job.


so, im working at a camp this summer and i want a good impression on the guys, because ive always been tht girl who every guy is friend and only friend they never look twice, so this summer i want it to be more??? have any ideas (link)
So what are you going to do when camp ends and those guys split for home?

Here is what you do: relax. Have fun. If you meet a guy and hit it off then great, but if not, no big deal. Teenage relationships are seldom meaningful anyway.

If you do see a guy staring at you, though, and you're interested, just wave at him. That gives him an opening to make the next move. If he's next to you, just ask him what's up and then other questions about himself like, "where are you from?" What is it like there?," etc. People like talking about themselves. Be nice and smile a lot.

(link)
Only a girl can feel guilty about gift giving. Sweety, stop overthinking. You will have a much more enjoyable life.

No, you didn't overspend on Mother's Day by any means. Not even close. You did it with the best of intentions and that is all that counts.


I am a teenage girl who obviously loves shopping :) But the thing is, I don't have anyone to go shopping with. My mom lives very far away. I don't really have many girl friends. The girl friends I do have, well it would be awkward to go shopping with them since I don't know them very well and we barely hang out outside of school. I haven't really gone shopping and bought something since a year ago. I have gone shopping though with my boyfriend.. but I always come home empty handed. I just always feel bad dragging him with me to go shopping for clothes. Since I don't have anyone to really go shopping with... should i just go shopping alone? I've never shopped alone before, it sounds scary. I don't want to look like a loner. When I'm in the mall, I see girls my age who are always with a group of friends. I just don't want people to see me and be like "oh she's alone. sad."

what should I do?? (link)
Stop allowing others to shape your life. If what you gotta do is shop alone then you do what you gotta do. Don't define yourself by the herd.

Just remember that the people you see at the mall now you are unlikely to ever see again once you graduate high school since everyone scatters to the four winds then. So stop being so self conscious. You know who you are. Revel in it and enjoy life as you see fit.


So, my boyfriend and I have been dating for 5 months now. (I'm a girl by the way.) I want a promise ring and he wants to get me one. but, is it to soon to commit? We've known each other for about 2 years now and he knows more about me than I do. Is it too soon? (link)
Your chances of marrying your high school sweetheart are just about nil because your outlook is going to evolve so much over the next decade. You aren't going to be the same people at 25 you are at 15. I would leave all the jewelry out of it. Guys hate buying it anyway, no matter what they tell you (and they usually don't have the guts to say so).


Hi, I am 16 years old and a female. I have a quirky style, I guess. I like bohomenian type things and vintage, lacey type things. I just got my 17 magazine yesterday and started reading it and the seco0nd I flipped too the picture (linked below) of Lucy Hale, I fell in love with this feather in her ear. So, I went to my local craft store, bought quirky looking feathers and then plain feathers and I put them on clasps and attatched them to a hoop earring. I apologize I do not have a picture of the one I made but it looks quite similar to Lucy's except different colors. I made the string dangly's like on hers. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I love it. I wore it to church today and alot of people loved it as well. So, my question is: Do you like the feather earring look? If I sold them, would you buy them? If I would like to sell them, how would I go about doing that on the internet (such as: are tehre websites that I can go to put pictures of mine on and have people purchase them on the internet)?

Be honest if you like them or not! Thanks!

Do not like it at all. It just seems to be there just because you can put it there.

Just remember the chief rule of female attire: the more jewelry, makeup or accessories you pile on the trashier it looks. A nice simple look is best (less really being more). That is, say one thing aesthetically rather than clutter your look up with conflicting messages. That makes it easier for the eye to digest.


Me and my friend had a sleepover last night and he wanted to cuddle with me and we started kissing and we had sex ! He's my best friend and were not even dating we were just playing with each other. But I do have a boyfriend. How do I tell him i slept with another guy ? What should I do ? (link)
Anytime a guy comes over to your house to "sleep over," he intends to have sex with you. That is pretty much an iron law of guy behavior.

Your boyfriend will likely (and rightly so) kick you to the curb if you tell him. So you must now decide if you can put up with the guilt and keep it from your BF to prevent getting dumped or if you want to risk an end to the relationship by revealing the episode to him. It's your call.

The other guy will hit you up for more sex in the future. That is also an iron law of guy behavior, especially if he gets intoxicated a lot. Good luck fending that one off. If you want to.


I am very quiet girl and I feel like no body knows who i am. If they heard my name they would probably ask " who's that?" also everyone gets invited to parties and so far ( from the beginning of the school year I have been invited to 2 low class parties not like a party that everybodywants to go to. I just want to know howto be mor outgoing. Sometimes I come home and cry because I feel lonely.. What do I do? (link)
The only way to get over shyness is to just take more social chances. Yeah, really tough, but reality is what it is. So you have to be willing to just start talking to people. You basically have a captive audience in your classroom, so if some girl is wearing a nice outfit, say that, and continue the conversation by asking where she shops and all that crap.

This has to be undergirded, though, by you liking yourself. People gravitate to folks who have a positive opinion of themselves. So let me ask you the following questions:

1. Do you act ethically?
2. Do you always do your best at whatever you take on?
3. Are you intelligent?
4. Do you have compassion for others?

I'm pretty sure that the answers in your case to all those questions are yes. So seeing that you're already such a good person then people will like knowing you. So give them a chance to sort of get socially dug into you by making small talk. Don't come at people all at once, just be relaxed, smile a lot and try to get others to talk about themselves and you'll be in.

As for the crying due to loneliness, that's pretty counterproductive. I understand the insecurity that teens go through at that age and women use attention as a way to evaluate their worth (another faulty concept though that may be). Instead of focusing on being sad at not being at the parties with the popular crowd (who are mostly jackasses anyway), work at making yourself a smarter, more informed person and engage in some hobbies. Learn to play electric guitar well. That will immediately up your cool factor with guys since not many girls, relatively speaking, do that and studying music is good for your mental development anyway.


Well there's this guy, and he likes another guy. I've always had feelings for this guy since kindergarten. On and off, but i really like him. He's perfect. So how do you think i could TRY to get him to like me. I know it might not happen, but i wanna try. And I cant just "move on" cause im in middle school, in the middle of no where. So i cant just move somewhere where there's guys, and long distance relationships suck. and yea, i think he flirts with me sometimes. He used to look at me 24/7 but not so much now..so he's not flirting as much. Soo, what should i do? (link)
The question is, do you need a boyfriend that badly when you're what, 13? Or is this one of those girl jealousy things where because your friends have boyfriends you gotta have one, too, to prove you're attractive?

Relax. There is plenty of time to find guys who would be good for you. If the guy is truly gay then you would look pathetic pursuing him anyway. Otherwise, just try to enjoy life and don't overthink things to the point where you either work yourself into an emotional pretzel or you hate yourself.


13/g
There's a guy in some of my classes that (since yesterday) wants to show me his penis to prove to me that it is longer than 3 inches.

LOL

You're probably thinking, wtf?, but there's a story behind this (it deserves a good explanation)

My school is an environmentally friendly school and we have a class that part of our grade is doing outside work, so i was working with him and two of my other friends and they were having a very sexual conversation (it was all guys that i was with, so you can see why. They're horny 13 year olds!) and he randomly asks me if i want to see his penis. And i laughed and said no. Then he said yes you do. and i said no i don't, and it kept going like that back and forth for a while. Then he starts to call my name and everytime i look but not down there just at his face, but one time he actually pulled his pants down! (only in the front, like as if he was about to pee, and i only knew that from the corner of my eye) Of course i didn't see it, but i knew that it was out.

And today he did it again in the same class and everything except this time he wanted to prove it to me that his "thing" was longer than 3 inches. (did i mention that on both days he had a boner? Yesterday it looked really short, like through the pants) so that's why he did it today, but what does this mean, does he like me, is he sexually attracted to me, or what because i asked my friends and they have no clue, just like me.

Please, feel free to anser my totally random question, please! I would be so... greatful for any answer/opinion/comment you have. I'll take anything.
Thank you for any answers in advance. (link)
Next time he gets that thing out kick him in the nads. That will put a stop to it. If it doesn't then dude has major issues that only intervention with a shrink can rectify.


20/F
I have dated the same boy since I was in the 8th grade, we dated all throughout high school off and on, with the longest time being about four months that we were separated and even then we still hooked up and talked and everything. However, every single time we broke up he was the one who dumped me, and every time he did I always begged him to take me back. Senior year we both got into the same university that is in our hometown. However, that summer I ended up changing my mind and decided to go to a college in another state, the two schools are roughly 2 hours apart so it's not a huge difference. It put a strain on our relationship but we finished out the summer strong and tried to figure out ways to maintain our relationship on in college. I visited him many times, every break we spent together and I would come down to his school for football games etc. However he only came and saw me once. It didn't matter to me though because I knew a lot of his friends who went there and it was in my hometown so it made more sense for me to come to him. Things ended up going pretty well that semester, however towards the end they got very shaky. And finally about two days before Christmas he broke up with me. We both were planning on rushing fraternitys/sororitys and he said that with both of us pledging it would make a relationship very hard. It was rough but pledging did keep both of us very busy, in fact we didn't talk much at all this semester. Maybe about once or twice a week. About a month before I came home, we started talking more regularly, he told me how much he had missed me how he couldn't wait to spend the summer with me etc...so naturally I thought we'd get back together. The first night I was back we got in a huge argument because he had gone through my phone and seen messages I'd sent my friends about him and how i wasn't sure what was going to happen. After a few days we started talking again and he said he wanted to see me but that he wasn't going to get back together with me right away but that he wanted to work things out with us, so for the past few weeks we've been seeing each other about twice a week and we usually hang out, hook up and then go out and eat, pretty normal. Except that we never talk unless were together. So the other day I was going to his house and we ended up getting in a huge argument over something stupid, I left to cool down and then came back hoping we could work it out. However, he basically told me that he still loved and cared about me but that he did not want to date anyone at all. He said he was nowhere near ready to get married and that this was the first time he'd ever really been single. I told him that it bothered me that he felt like he could do this to me, knowing that when he's ready to date me I will have been here waiting on him, he has me tied around his finger and I know it. We both dated around and hooked up and talked to other people this past semester, but it was nothing serious for either of us. That same day I ended up leaving his house crying, and he texted me later on that night saying we both had messed up etc. He then asked me to come get him bc he was drunk and couldn't drive home, so I went and got him and ended up staying at his house. The first thing I told him when I saw him was that this is just proof of the fact that regardless of how much he puts me through, anytime he needs me I am always there for him.
My question is should I believe him? he says there is nobody else and I do think I believe him, I haven't heard of him being serious with anyone. But is it really possible to love someone but not want to be in a relationship? I've always thought that if you love someone enough nothing else matters, you only want to be with them. Should I wait it out? Or do my best to move on. It's crazy but we've been together almost six years, and I really think that this is the person I'm supposed to be with. But I don't want to spend my time away from him miserable, but I also don't want to lose him either. (link)
Well, you're you and I'm not, but developmentally, it is better for you to date lots of different guys and explore life a little bit rather than going back time and again. Are you still living at home? Nothing wrong with that at your age, but you are definitely still living at home when it comes to your love life and that isn't a good thing and I wonder if you will be able to leave home after you graduate, especially as I believe it is a good idea for everyone to live overseas after they are out of university as a further growing experience.

Look, if you don't go through that phase of exploring life and dating different men you will regret it later. And he will also regret not doing that. So no need to get yourself tied down with anyone now. In fact, it would be better if you cut the cord and moved on. You can always meet again at your high school class reunion five years down the road or something. Just don't get stuck.


My ex-girlfriend and I go to different colleges and were long distance for awhile because of it. We're no longer together but are on good terms and are pretty good friends, and she just revealed to me that sometimes (even while we were together), when she would sit down for class she would knowingly let her thongs ride up for random guys.


I'm not asking how I should feel about that (I don't really care), but I was just curious what you guys would think of it. (link)
Hmmm....

Just another female seeking male attention. Same crap, different day. Each to his/her own.


i'm not together with with the father of my children and i don't let him near them. he is a very bad person; he dose drugs all the time, gets drunk, gets in fights, hurts his family, smokes, and doesn't have a job or an education. he loves me and our kids but he is easily made angry and he used to take his anger out on us; yell at me a lot, has hurt a few times, cussed and said very inappropriate things in front of our kids. so i don't want him putting the kids though that anymore. dose keeping my kids away from there father make me a bad parent? (link)
No. I know someone who had a psycho wife. She got so into drugs that it was decided that she give up any claim to custody of their kids. So he's raised a couple of kids with no help from her and the kids have been better for it.


im 10 yr old girl & have been having discarge come out of my vagina for 2 years. does this mean i will have my period soon? another question: is sex when a man puts his penis in a vagina & squirts sperm?
i think it might be (link)
If you think there is anything abnormal going on down there tell your mom. She has already experienced all that girl stuff, so she is your most immediate resource.

Same goes for sex. Talk to your mom about it and not strangers on the internet.


I have been trying to uninstall UniBlue from my Computer but is keeps saying it can't be uninstalled. (link)
Try using Malwarebytes and see if that helps.
