Long story short, I'm from Los Angeles, went to an amazing school, left the US and moved to the Middle East. I've been backpacking around Europe and the Middle East on and off since August 2013.

Would you like to converse? Here's my Forum

Quite frankly, I'm sarcastic way more than I should be. Read a few of my answers, and you'll see that I am not totally mean to anyone.

Type correctly or go home. Yes, that is an ultimatum.

Hey. Well, I'm going shopping this Wednesday, and I was wondering if stores like Forever 21, Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister, Victoria's Secret, Nordstrom, Aeropostale, Charlotte Russe, etc. have sales by then because of after Christmas or upcoming New Years, etc. Thanks!

VS is having a semi-annual right now, and so is Bath and Body works. Charlotte Russe also has a pretty big sale on. I don't know about the other stores, nor how long wach sale will last. Might I suggest google?

Hey advicenators-

This is in not intended to be surly in any way. Just stay with me, you won't believe your eyes. If you've ever noticed when you go to ask a question on advicenators, there are guidelines or "notes" beneath it regarding what you should and shouldn't do.

The third bullet point says word for word; "You'll get better advice if you make some attempt to use proper spelling and grammer."

Since WHEN is GRAMMAR spelt with an E? That's pretty contradictory, you really ought to practice what you preach. Any suggestions on how I can contact the administrator of this website? Thanks.

I remember complaining about that...DangerNerd has an e-mail address... dangernerd@gmail.com

I just ordered a pair of 00 jeans offline from American Eagle. I'm pretty skinny for my age (not bragging, just a fact), and whenever I try on regular 0 jeans there the length is fine but it's a little too big on the butt. Does anyone else out there order 00 from AE or know of anyone? Typically, how much do you have to weigh to fit into them?

If you're not sure about every single question here it's fine, but the more info the better.

Well, I'm 5'0'' and weigh about 100 pounds, and I fit well into a size 0. 00s are extremely small. They might be a little short. On the AE website, there should be a size chart with measurements.

You have got to be kidding me. You spelled 6 words correctly out of two sentences, and your typing is horrendous. At least put some effort into how you present yourself, Kristina.

Hi everyone!

My name is Todd, and I am a 15-year-old teenager. Well, my question is whether or not I should take the next step. Let me explain.

About close to a year ago, I met this girl, Andrea, in my Freshman year, and she and I didn't date, but we were good friends. We were both the same age, but I was about a month older. Through the months, we knew more and more about each other from our last names to what candy we like.

As strange as it seems, I've never had a relationship, much less my first kiss. I am trying to see if Andrea likes me or not, but more than a friendship. Some relationships can be harsh, so I don't want to try that, but I just want to know if she has the same or at least similar feelings that I do for her.

I am always glad to be around her, and sometimes I hang around her more than some of my other friends. I've also noticed that when I am with her at lunch, she wants these other girls at the table to go away, since they're annoying, but I'm not sure if it's just because she wants to be alone with me or something, since she and I usually sit alone.

As far as hanging out goes, she and I have hung out at my home once, and we've seen each other at school. I've been trying to hang out with her more, but she has a dysfunctional family which makes it tough for us to hang out on weekends. She is also depressed, so I try to help her through it.

I have been trying to show her that I love her by telling her that I care about her, how much I do care about her, and by doing things for her, like buying her gifts or getting things for her. Whoa, lot of "her"s in that one. Well, anyway, she never freaks out, but she always smiles and sometimes nods her head up and down a little bit. She might say things like "that's nice" or "thanks", but I never really can tell if she is nervous or anxious. I remember when I told her that I did really care about her, she smiled but she kind of laughed, and she said "I'm sorry for laughing...".

So, I would like to ask if I should take the next step and try asking her out. My parents have said I shouldn't because of her family, and some of my friends have said to go for it, just because she's single.

Thanks for reading this.

Todd

First of all, thank you so much for typing correctly and giving us your age at the top. That actually made me want to answer your question!

I think that you guys are best friends, and in my book, to be a best friend, you care about each other, so she obviously has SOME feelings for you. The only reason I can see for NOT asking her out would be that it might be weird if she didn't feel the same way.

I think that you should just hang out outside school more, and if it's just the two of you, then that's dating, pretty much (except for the kisses and stuff), so if she's willing to hang out with you, then ask her out on an official date!

Good luck!

How would I properly say this sentence -

If I were you.
If I was you.

If I were you is correct English.

hey i got this ipod thing and i dont no what to do!!

Hello I see some people putting those google search bars in the answeres to questions. how do you do that? Thanks :)

DN explains in site news, but you basically put in one of these [ then the word search and than another of these ] and then what you want the person to search for and then another of these [ and a slash / and then the word search] and then you get

I recommend you read the site news, DN explains it better than I do...

ps. sorry agian

DangerNerd (DN) runs this site, and he gives nice advice, except to people who are really mean to him. Since the site is anonymous, not many people know ho you ae (some moderators can see who you are if they look... ^_^). We in general, tend to be mean becuase there is an FAQ that NO ONE READS. DN worked hard to put it together, and we feel that people who ask obvious questions are just wasting our time. Don't take it personally. This site is comprised mostly of immature 13 year-olds, and sometimes we get sick of you :) Everybody doesn't hate you, but I might if you ever spell offended like that again. Please, by all means, stay on the site, but do something to help it, like typing correctly or answering lots of questions, and being nice in general. Merry, Christmas to you, too.

Brown Gauchos & Brown cowboy boots.

^yes or no?

No. Please don't ask these questions...

I don't really like brown, and that much brown would be ugly and overpowering.

hey well it's getting to the time of year where everyone who wants to be in the school talent show starts putting together a routine. my friends and i love dancing and we have a few ideas, but don't know which one would be best. We either want to do a jazz routine to heartburn by alicia keys, a lyrical routine to either iris or black balloon by the googoodolls, or a hip-hop routine, but we don't really know a song for that. Which do you think would be most enjoyable? or do you have any other song ideas for dancing to?

Hip hop is what's current, so fellow studens would most likely like that best. I recommend "Lose Control" by Missy Elliott.

I was just wondering if it's possible to loose a pound a day? If so, how? Thanks.

Yes, everyone's weight fluctuates, but if you are loosing a pund a day regularly, it could be detrimental to your health.

Edit: If today you lost a pound, and then tomorrow another pound, and kept this up for a month, you would be 30 or 31 pounds lighter. I weigh 100 pounds exactly, so that would mean that a 5' girl would weigh 69 or 70 pounds, which is what I would weigh if I were anorexic, and that could kill me. When I weigh myself, sometimes I weigh 96 or 98, and sometimes, I weigh the full 100; it depends on what time of day it is (after dinner, before breakfast etc). Excercise and a healthy diet, like nutrisystem

can help you, over time, to lose weight. It's not healthy to gain or lose weight as quickly as a pound a day.

Happy Hanukah.

Thanks, I suspect this is assuager, so if it is, or if it's not, then Happy Holidays!

Hey,
My Speakers For My Dell 2400 Are Making Weird Noises. Like I can Turn Them Up From The Speaker and they Will Start Making A Static Noise (I Think Their Haunted). I've Only Had My Dell For Like 2 Months! What Could Be Causing This?

Yeah, they're probably haunted. You're right.

how do you become an organ donor? can you donote organs and other parts for money?

To become an organ donor, at least in California, you put a sticker on your driver's license, and also need to be 18. Organ donation is something that you do once you've passed away. There is the exception of liver and kidney donations, which can both occcur while you're still living. Also, you have to die a certain way, you have to be brain dead, and not have like bled to death or anything. I highly doubt that you would get money, but blood banks give out stickers and t-shirts, and to donate blood through the American Red Cross, you need to be at least 17 years old and weigh 115 pounds. I'm not sure on plasma donation. This is something that you can google, by the way.

is it ok to wear an (light) orange polo with a denim mini and pink flats?

Yes.

ok so i have a sony camera. and the other day, i was turning it off and accidently click the battery eject thing. so the battiers came out, and the lens stayed open and shut off when i turned it on it said " please turn camera on and off" so i did, it kept coming up. note: this happened before and i fixed it with in like 5 minutes. note: a while agoi droped my camera , and had to send it to texas ( im in buffalo ) to get it fixed for 350 dollars. my parents weren't happy, and this sign never appered before i turned it in. so the sign kepted coming up, and before to fix it i pushed the lens in, so i tried that. it finially closed. and when i turned it on, its blurry and blinks b:180 or something like that, and it wont get into focus, and when i turn it off it doesnt go back in unless i force it in. my mom wont pay no more money. but i dnot think its totally broken, and if it is im screwed. anybody know what i should do? or how to fix it. i rate high. please help. thank you. this camera is everything to me.

If the camera is under warranty, it should be replaced by Sony for free. Call up SOny and chat about what's going on. They can usually help. I think you got scammed with the $350 Texan thing. If it was sent to anyone other than Sony, you have voided your warranty and are out of luck. I wish you the best.
