Miles and miles by Dee.

Q: can drinking coffe, not eating make heart palpations worse?
Let's look at the facts. You're not eating, and you're drinking coffee. Obviously the caffeine is going to hit you harder because you have no food in your stomach, which will make your heart palpatations occur.

So eat food. Either that or drink de-caff coffee, but that's for pussies.

Q: I will give you my description first I am a small girl, I have a heart shape face sort of like the shape of Halles Berry's I have a small head, I have a caramel complexion my eyes are sort of small but nay way I want to get a afro. And, I don't know how it will look and how people will react to it I would like to know what you t hink about afros as women how do you think they look, and males I would like to know if you find them atrractive or at least decent looking. I would like all opinions and all view on it, I'm on the fence right now.
Do it! Do it do it do it.

Q: Why do you think my boyfriend acts like he don't want to be around me or even talk to me in school?
Maybe his friends don't like you, so he doesn't want to be seen with you? Does he talk to you out of school?

Q: 17/m
I now realize that I would much rather be a girl than a guy. I think it would be really cool to go to prom dressed as a girl. Think people would get pissed or would it be okay. If I do go, any hints about what I should wear? Thanks
Yeah, you'll piss the majority of people off and they'll talk alot of shit and stare at you, but who cares, that's the best part.

The only con is the possibility that you might be kicked out of the prom (thanks to the large quantity of oversheltered conservative teachers).

Maybe wear a pink suit?

Q: Okay so all i really drink are frappucinos.
Ive had cafe vanilla, carmel vanilla, vanilla mocha, and peppermint mocha.
Get the White Chocolate Mocha, hot. It's spectacular.

Q: I have like little black lines on my teeth.. like, its not the front of the teeth, where you can see, but when i open my mouth to say "ahh" like the part where I chew food, like in the backs there are little lines where there are like.. indentations. i've never had a filling, and i brush my teeth atleast once everyday.. and my parents have good teeth too, so i dont know why i have this. whats the cause? how do i fix it before all my teeth have those little black line things? and they seem to be increasing little by little, and becoming a little more intense in the back 2 teeth. OMG! and i havent been to a dentist.. well since i was in 2nd grade and now im 13 in 7th. help help help!
They're cavities, child.


---EDIT---: Are you stupid? You asked what they were and I told you. I felt no need to tell you how to fix them since everyone that isn't fucking retarded knows you can't fix cavities at home. Go to the dentist and brush your teeth,

Q: I am really bored.People tell me to get a life.How do I do that.Please tell me how I should get a life,get rid of my boredom,meet new people and make new friends. Any answers are appreciated
Get a hobby.

Q: with your period is it supposed to have an odor? Because mine has an odor kind of reminds me of popcorn kind of smell, I dont know how describe it. And I can smell it even with my clothes on and stuff? Help!

Also, what are scented pads supposed to do? Do they get rid of the smell or something? And are they not as good to use?
Yes, it has an odor. It shouldn't smell horrible though, if it smells sour you should probably be changing your pad more often. Most girls can smell it with their clothes on, but nobody else around you can smell it, trust me. I wouldn't suggest wearing a skirt and going without changing your pad for a day and then opening your legs, obviously.

Scented pads are supposed to block the smell of your menstrual blood. Do they get rid of the smell? Somewhat. They make it smell better, but it doesn't completley take it away. They aren't bad to use, but they have chemicals that can cause rashes and things like that. Your best bet is to stick with regular pads, since nobody around you can smell it anyway.

Q: this is just really random.I was thinking, if you wear foundation, and then blushed while wearing it, would you blush? i know its weird but i was just wondering.
You should be able to see your cheeks blush. If you don't, you're caking on way too much foundation.

Q: my eyelashes are so difficult. no matter what mascara i use. they still all clump together and turn all different directions! do you think i need to use a clear mascara? i dont really have long lashes though. but i do use a curler.
Mascara will clump no matter what. Try getting one of those eyelash/eyebrow combs and comb it through your lashes, it'll seperate them and get rid of the excess goop.

Your best bet is to get good mascara, the cheaper mascaras have cheaper wands. If you don't have enough cash to spend on designer brand mascara, try Maybeline XXL.

Q: i need help !!
ok i have green eyes and blck eyeliner doesnt look very good (it makes me look kinda goth cuz of my eyes) what color should i use that would look the best for my eyes ?? plz help !!
Like the previous columnists said, use a brown or plum color. Don't use blue, tacktacktacky.

Q: well i have acne. like on myforehead. i was wondering what works? like any products that ACTUSLLY work. and i wash my face every night before i go to bed if tht helps.
Tea Tree oil cleansing pads.

Q: What would happen if you devoured like 3 bottles of pills?
If it's pain medicine or a narcotic, you'll obviously go numb and die.

If it's cold medicine your liver will die and so will you.

If it's cough syrup however, you'll hallucinate!

Q: please only girls answer.
what types of clothes/outfits do girls like on guys?? Im not interested in things like emo style or goth, no offense to those that are, i just dont like the style. any help would be appriciated. ..thanx..
Don't wear baggy jeans, don't wear pink, don't wear lame sears dragon shirts, don't pierce your ears, no shirts with sayings on it, and please please please PLEASE do not spike your damn hair.

Girls like guys wearing jeans that fit them. Not baggy and not chick pants, those are SoOoOo 5 MiNuTeS aGo.

Q: Why is it that in movies where there's scenes that people are masturbating, they appear to be enjoying it just as much as real sex? I mean, isn't real sex better than masturbating? Just wondering. What's your opinion?
To make the movie more scandalous, without showing actual sex. Or just to give the movie more substance. But in reality, most girls have a stronger orgasm while masturbating than actually having intercourse. I'm sure guys think the real thing is better though.

Q: I have a few stained teeth. Like.. there's red-orange ish scratch like marks on my teeth. Stained.. I had braces for like 3 years and my teeth were a bit stained where the glue stuff was.

How do i fix it without getting it bleached professionally [I don't have the money]

I don't smile because of it.

I would love to start smiling again.
Believe it or not, Crest White Stripes actually do work. Crest Whitening Rinse works too, but it burns your tongue.

Q: what are some similar artists like regina spektor? (preferribly that no one knows about) i know there arent a lot out there like her,but i mean the type of music,or that same kind of type at least. thanks!
Cat Power, Rilo Kiley, Tegan & Sara, Feist

Q: How do I get rid of upper lip hair?
If i wax it will it come back in faster and dark? so gross right?
Waxing is your best bet. It won't come in any faster or any darker, but it will naturally come back. Waxing actually doesn't hurt. If you wax your eyebrows, it feels similar to that.

Q: my name is Jay i'm 13/m/north carolina. I extremely like this girl and when i finally ask her out, she rejects me. SHe was the girl of my dreams!! That was about 2 weeks ago but i still like her. What should i do?
You get over it because she doesn't like you. Find another girl of your dreams, I guarentee you'll find about 20 more since you're only 13.
