I finally updated my picture, I thought it was time for an update on it so I picked my favorite picture. After all, my previous picture was almost 2 and a half years old!
My name is Ryan. And I will answer most everything you want to ask to the best of my God given ability.But I will not sugar coat any answer and I will give MY advice. I don't care about my ratings, so don't think giving me a 1 for an answer you don't want to hear will scare me. And if you already know what you should do about a sitaution, don't come to us here at advicenators asking for a second opinion. And here below is a list of questions you should NOT ask on advicenators. Granted some of them may vary and be acceptable, but overall don't ask the below questions on Advicenators.
**Don't ask questions like "OMG i heard this song on the radio with "insert pointless pop lyrics here" and i wanna know what it is so what is it! Thanks!! I rate 5sssss! hearts". This question can be simply googled with the lyrics, or you need only ask a friend
**Don't ask "ok so there is the hott guy/gal in my class and he/she like got me a *insert gift or simple trinket here* do you think he/she likes me?" This is the most common question here on this website sadly. Unless it is vitally important and actually pertains to a feeling of true feelings, don't ask it. This is most asked by teens. And what teens need to learn is "love" is not thinking a guy/girl is sweet and hott and nice. I know love, and it is so far from all those things. Remember Cicero when he said "Out of all the emotions, love is the most violent. Love is madness."
**"Ok so me and my boyfriend had sex last night and we like used no protection omg he came in me do you think i am pregnant?" Ugh. Stupid teens and their hormones. IF YOU HAVE SEX YOU ALWAYS RUN THE RISK OF PREGNANCY, UNLESS YOUR STERILE. And if you don't know anything about sex, you shouldn't be doing it. Even if you "love" your partner, half the time this is a disallusion and you will end up hurt. Sex is for marriage.
**Or asking what's "in" for fashion, or what they should wear out tonight. Or what is "cute" and what looks good. Pick and choose for yourself what you like, think for yourself instead of trying to let other people do it for you. Stand up and be yourself.
These are the most common questions I have seen on Advicenators. Now there are a few questions that are very good questions and deserve the 3 rating and the best answer possible. But they are usually blocked out with the kinds of questions listed above. If you want to ask something, check the following off that I am listing.
1.Does the question pertain to anything important or trivial?
2.Is proper grammar used?
3.Is the question long and in one paragraph?
4.Is it a question that you yourself can answer?
5.Is there enough detail?
Following those 5 guidelines, you can write a good 3 point answer. That about wraps it up.
I spend alot of time online and here on advicenators, so if you ever need anything then just send something in my inbox or IM me. I'm not opposed to helping people at all, in fact I love doing it. I just want some people to wake up from asking a stupid question.
Thank you all for your time.

ok, for language arts, i have to right a persuasive essay. My topic is america acting as the worlds police, why we shouldnt do this. I basically know what im going to write about, but i need a it of help. One thing ill be writing about are wars that it was unnessescary(sp?) for the U.S. to get involved in. Does anyone know what wars the U.S. was involved in that really didnt need to be involved in? like the original conflict didnt involve the U.S and we didnt get attacked or anything. I think vietnam is one of them....sorry its so long! ♥ (link)

There is a fine line between necessary and unneeded. For instance. Alot of people (such as the columnist who answered before me) will argue that the war in Iraq is unneeded and uncalled for. But then some will argue it was, as the people were being oppressed and treated inhumanely (such as the exteme prejudice that befell the Kurds in northern Iraq in the 80's). And undecided people are left to wonder, do we just let people suffer, or do we risk our lives to help.
I will have to disagree with the below columnist on his view and forgive me for doing so, but allow me to voice what I want to say. Because we live in America and have we have all these nice things and whatnot, wouldn't you want to share it? Instead of keeping it to yourself and hoarding it. Also let me use a quote which I like very much to prove a point of why I believe this way.
"The only thing it takes for evil men to prosper is for good men to do nothing" - Edmund Burke.
What does this mean? It means that by allowing prejudice and persecution to exist, we are breaking a fundamental human right and as it says in the Bible "Help your neighboor and even those who persecute you, if he asks for your cloak, give him your cloak and tunic. If he asks for bread, give him both bread and water." (I don't remember the exact location of it, but I do know it is in the New Testament in one of the 4 gospels).
Therefore, the war in Iraq and the Vietnam war can't be considered "unnecessary" because both were aimed to release people from oppression and to spread the freedom we as americans enjoy now. Granted, a bit of the Vietnam War can be a result of the "Red Scare" that America expierenced during the Cold War. But the end result was our troops fighting and dying helping others.
I need to apologize for the length of this response, but I think it is necessary for you to realize most wars aren't "unnecessary". Yes warfare is not right, but given circumstances when we have the ability to go somewhere and help some people, then it does become necessary. America to my current knowledge, has not been involed in any wars where they were not threatened or went to war to protect the rights of people and freedom where they saw fit.
Also I wish to make a point about America acting as the world's "police". That is hardly the case. If it were true, we would be in alot more countries fighting alot more wars.
I have made my point and I hope you atleast read it to understand what I am trying to say. So I hope I helped.
