Q: Okay well, when i woke up this morning, i went to brush my teeth and like the bottom part of the 4 front ones were all like whiteish and ugly and looked gross. Any ideas how this could have happend? How do you get rid of it in 20 minutes? HELP ASAP!!
They were WHITE? Aren't you teeth supposed to be white? Anyway, that's most likely a calcium deposit, and there isn't much you can do to get rid of it except cut back on calcium.

Q: My mom won't let my peirce my belly, and i have wanted it for two years now. I have tryed to convince her that i want it done but she still says no! Any ideas? Please help asap!!!!!
She has legal rights over what you do until you are 18, if she doesn't want you to get it, she doesn't have to let you and as a child you shouldn't be telling her otherwise. Not to mention, you aren't piercing your BELLY unless you are planning on getting a surface piercing somewhere on your abdomen. It is a navel piercing, if you want it, know it.

Q: I had to be outside today, and I used SPF 50 sunblock but I still got a bad tan. Any way to get rid of it?I don't look Loli-chan-like anymore!
Just to let you know, do NOT put lemon juice on your skin and then go out in the sun, you will get a REALLY bad burn.

Q: Any tricks 2 clean food stains on clothes?
Take a bowl of hot water, put the stained object into the water and add oxyclean. Mix it around a bit and let it sit for a half hour to an hour and then wash it like regular.

Q: OK this might sound kind of weird but I'm really scared that I'm dying or something... I exersize the correct amount of time each day but lately when ever I eat, even the smallest thing like a bowl of cereal, I'll be full for the rest of the day and sometimes even more, the longest I've gone is 1 week, am I dying.. thx :)
The longst you've gone without food is 1 week? Or what?

Anyway, the less food you eat, the smaller your stomach shrinks and the fuller you feel with small meals. You are going to need to slowly start eating more, otherwise you could die...of anorexia complications.

Q: I am Executor of a low value Will with no property involved. I should be able to collect all the deceased financial assests without any problems. Do I need to go to Probate?

Q: Ok I have just a few tiny corkscrew curls in my hair. They often get thangled with the straigh hair I have. I bought a natural curl relaxer with conditioner... Will it damage my straight hair?
It won't damage your hair, but after extended use it could straighten those corkscrew curls more then you would like.

Q: can you swim when you are on your period?
Yes, make sure you use a tampon though because not only is it unsanitary if you don't, but you could really embarrass yourself.

Q: Yesterday, I was skipping inside of my house and I passed the restrooms and my dad was in there peeing. He forgot to close the doors! He saw me and stopped peeing and i guess was kinda nervous. I didn't see anything because I was skipping and my face was turned the other way. It's kinda weird between us now. What can i do?
Just go up to him and tell him that you didn't see anything but you hope he closes the door next time so it won't happen in the future.

Q: I have a persuasive speech that I have to write by tomorrow. my aim is to persuade people do donate blood, it has to be a six to eight minute speech so if anyone out there has anything good on that topic that might help it would be awesome, thanks. :)
People aren't compatible with everyone, so it is basically essential that several different types of people donate. Not only that, but most people cannot donate to infants because they are carriers of many things that adults are immune too. It's easy to do and they give you juice and cookies afterwards. Blood banks can only hold blood for a certain amount of time before they need a fresh supply, it goes bad and they need a constant supply. A major crash can completely empty out a blood bank, therefore ready donors are needed all the time.

Q: This is SO random..but how much champagne does it take a small 13 year old female to get drunk? Like number of glasses
1 or 2. Champagne often gets people drunk faster because of the carbonation in it.

Q: hey all i hurt my finger it is all black and blue and it hurts to bend it up and down and side to side and where it's black and blue there is this little bump it just hurts what should i do should i go to the hospital or the doctor.
what did i do to it break it or sprin
They won't do much even if it is broken. What they do is basically take what looks like a large popsicle stick, take the finger directly next to the damaged one and wrap them together with the popsicle stick holding them straight. You could do it at home, or just go to the doctor and they will do it.

Q: I'm thinking about buying a Lacoste on ebay..for those of you who don't know what it is, it's a really expensive polo retailing for $72-$79 in stores like Saks, Nordstroms, etc..The problem is, I don't want to get scammed and be sold a fake one. How do I know if it's real? The one I am currently bidding on has a $0.99 starting bid. The seller states that it has two mother of pearl buttons. She has a feedback of 99.7%. Is this a scam? How do I spot the real ones?
It probably is genuine, most sellers start their bidding price VERY low (like $.01) because they know it will go up a lot in price. If she has a feedback rating of 99.7% then she has been an exceptional seller (unless she has only sold a few things), usually you can go through their feedback too and see what people were unhappy with.

EDIT: Make sure you watch the shipping & handling price, many times people are charging way too much to make sure they get what the item is worth. If you have any more questions, just send me a note.

Q: Hey I was wondering where I could go (website adresses) to find some good quizzes, other than www.quizilla.com. Thanks I will rate high!

Q: 13/f - Yesterday I think my mom walked in on me and my BFF watching porn on my computer. Im not positive if she saw EVERYTHING because we clicked out fast, but its been akward between us all morning! I dont know what to do/say or if im just being paranoid and she didnt see. What do i do here?! My friend just went home, but still my mom hasnt said a word about it. i feel SO AWKWARD! HELP ME PLEASE
Chances are, it's just your guilt making you feel like she saw and is mad at you. If she didn't say anything, which I bet she would, she probably didn't even notice. Not to mention, it is normal for girls around your age to be interested in sex. Looking at online porn is much better then experimenting in real life.

Q: How long does it take for a symtom of an STD to show up? I just gave my boyfriend a blow job last night for the first time and now i have a sore in my mouth. Could it be an STD and should i be worried? Thanks so much.
The chances of any type of STD showing up the NEXT day are VERY slim. Most likely, while you were performing oral sex you pinched a part of your mouth and now it is tender and seems like a sore. Within the week, it will probably be gone and won't show back up.

If you are having reoccuring oral sores, it is most likely oral Herpes, which a good percentage of the population actually has but calls them cold sores. The chances of you getting it from your boyfriend LAST NIGHT is basically NIL...so don't worry about that. In the future, make him wear a condom, even if it is only for oral sex.

Q: ok, after everytime i masterbate, i feel really, really guilty...i wounder what my girlfriend would say if she had found out, i feel like it is a complete sin, and after everytime i do that, i feel that God punishes me, but he doesnt seem to punish other people i know do it... what should i think? is it ok, or should i try to stop?? HELP!!
Statistically, more then 95% of people masturbate or have masturbated. You are not in a minority here, your hormones are going wild and you feel the need to relieve them. Don't let people tell you that you should feel guilty when they aren't angels either.

Also, if you don't masturbate, you body actually builds up the excess and will excrete it in your sleep (which is yes, a wet dream) and you can't control that. Wouldn't you rather have control over when you excrete then having to secretly change your sheets in the morning so your mom doesn't see?

Q: Hey guys ok heres the thing. I am constantly being told i am really skinny, i mean im aware of that but its just getting old. I've been trying to gain weight and i just cant!! Does anyone have any ideas on foods to eat that will make you gain weight fast?? Please help!! I rate high
The foods that are going to make you gain weight fast will be high in fat and that isn't want you want to put onto your body even if you are skinny. You could naturally have a very high metabolism, it might not be until you are into your 30's that it will actually start to slow down and your weight will go up.

Try eating foods that help maintain your energy levels as well as being healthy, look into running or swimming to build up muscle (which weighs more then fat).

Q: Can you get genital herpes without having any sexual contact?
Yes, you can. Check out different STD sites all over the web for more info.

Q: i am 23 and 11 weeks pregnant , I work but have loadsa dept , my mum is giving me 3 weeks to get out of her house as she does not agree with the pregnancy . what am I going to do , the father is in no position to help me , i do not want to give up my work as I have been there for 5 years.
but I am going to have no where to live please help
They have specific residences for pregnant women or women with children, if worse came to worse you could move in there. Start applying for income based apartments right now, so that you could move in by the end of the month. As far as the pregnancy and medical help, there is state funding to help pregnant women and it's free. All you have to do is find local resources and they will all help you.
