Sorry to ask a question; I see neither a forum nor an e-mail address on your column.
Is your username from an animated movie?
I saw it at Blockbuster and it reminded me of you. (Indeed)
|
zomg I'm banning you right now for not seeking advice.
But in reality, my username IS from the movie Fern Gully and the Last Rain Forest. Except when I was in the sixth grade a few friends of mine decided to call me Fern (I assume they had just seen it) or FernGully. It sorta stuck and made for a badass (holy crap sarcasm) username.
Also, I can't remember what the actual link is for the forums, but take your link to yours, take out your usernumber and put 7 in its place and you'll get to my forum. Sadly, it is a barren wasteland where dustbunnies run wild.
Alsoalso, I have an email address that I used primarily for stuff relating to advicenators, but as I haven't been here for say, a millenium, I haven't checked the email in a year I'd say. Maybe I should do that now. It's fernishness@gmail.com
...I think anyways. It's been a while.

is it wrong to not eat pizza crusts? (Indeed)
|
I guess in a way it's wasteful of food. At the same time, some people just don't like the crust of pizza. It's not "wrong", it's just a choice you make.
|
I was just wondering what about my background is considered "offensive"? I personally really like it which would make sense because it is up so I just want to know the reason behind that.
I know you said it was hard to read as well but that can be changed with my font color.
I'd be happy to change my background if I just get an explanation. Thanks (Indeed)
|
Sure, it's just that it's the middle finger, and that usually represents a person saying "fuck you". Not only do we have younger members who may somehow be sensitive to this, we have a lot of parents who come through and look at the site to make sure their 13+ kids are not looking at anything they shouldn't. It violates our site policy, and it looks in a way, pretty damn unprofessional.

ok thsi is going to sound really stupid...but i can not for the life of me figure out what that blue chalk stuff does. i mean i know you put it at the end of the stick, but what does it DO? why do you put it there? if i dont use it will it affect my game? i will rate you high if you are able to tell me! (Indeed)
|
The chalk helps with some friction between the cue stick tip and the cue ball. If you don't use chalk, you stand a greater chance of scratching (when the cue ball doesn't hit anything, or another player's balls) and your shot won't have as much spin as it could. Spin has all sorts of benefits.

As dumb as this may sound, I didn't actually realize how horrible it is, when you eat chicken & hamburgers. I didn't actually understand the concept that for me to eat a hamburger, is for an innocent cow to just die. My friend sent me an e-mail with a video about fur trade in China, and how dogs & cats are skinned and killed everyday just for fur. But, it got me to thinking how horrible that actually is. I really have been thinking about it today, and I think just eating hamburgers & chicken is disgusting especially knowing that an animal died for that. I'm really considering turning into a vegetarian. Do you believe that this is a good enough reason to want to turn vegetarian? Thanks so much. ♥ (Indeed)
|
If you believe that for you personally, vegetarianism is what you want - then talk to your doctor. They will let you know what you need to supplement for, and what vitamins to take. They'll probably reccommend certain foods for you to eat, and explain to you all of the side effects of such a lifestyle change.
I don't reccommend you join PETA, as they are very extremist. However, you can of course do what you wish. Groups such as PETA are very focused on forcing EVERYONE to turn vegetarian/vegan, and that really isn't very nice. There are plenty of vegetarian groups that advocate choice, which is important.
I won't force a vegetarian to eat steak, and they won't force me to eat only lettuce. Simple as that. Just make sure you know the difference between advocating something, and forcing it on others.
Make sure you talk to your doctor and get all the information you need to keep yourself healthy, but at the same time happy with your beliefs.

do colleges hav formals or anything like that (Indeed)
|
It may be different for other post-secondarys, but mine has homecoming, a Christmas "Ball" and a few other smaller celebrations where you are expected to dress formally.
There are a lot more semi-formal gatherings compared to very formal, but there are still a few formal ones.

Hey, I'm about to see MontyPython's Life of Brian. This may seem weird and prudish, but I saw the rating R for nudity and blasphemy. I'm 13, and my family really wants to watch it, I really don't care about blasphemy/sacrilege, but I'm worried about the nudity part. How much nudity is in it? A lot? Just a couple flashes? Thx, But if you think I'm stupid and prudish and wish to leave a nasty comment, either because MontyPython is sacriligeous or you think I'm an asshole for asking this question, go ahead. I can very easily give you a bad rating. (Indeed)
|
Well, I can't even seem to remember the nudity, but that may just be awful memory playing tricks on me. More than likely however, it's some interesting flashes of nudity. If you think it will be uncomfortable around your parents (hey, I understand, it horrifies me to have some kind of sex scene on TV or in a movie if my parents are there, and I am substantially older), then maybe watch the movie later on your own. If your mom won't even let you watch it after she's seen it, you will then know your choice to wait before watching it was probably a good one.

hey i like your general advice on the side. i like that picture of you too whats in your mouth? by the way do you mind if i put your general advice on my site i can understand if you say no though. (Indeed)

I'm glad you like my general advice, however, I'd prefer if you didn't take it for your own column. It's special to me.

Does anyone think it would be okay to go swimming on your period, and without wearing a tampon? My mom said I have to wai till I'm about 15, and I'm a couple of years younger. What should I do??!!! And if so, what do i do after i get out of the pool?! (Indeed)
|
It might not be okay to go swimming without a tampon while on your period. You might get lucky and be fine, but more than likely - you won't. Being in the water doesn't stop your period, and you may end up with an embarassing situation or you'll need to invest in a new bathing suit. I suggest wearing a tampon, or not going swimming at all. I can't understand why your mother won't allow you to, but you should talk to her about it. At a young age, it's true, you probably shouldn't be using tampons on a regular basis, but it shouldn't be an enormous problem to only use them to go swimming. If she educates you properly on using tampons, you should be just fine. Talk to her.

ok i have been looking all over the internet for a homemade recipe for a face mask that gets your skin glowing... well i was always gunna try them untill they start telling me these weird herbs that i never heard of or dotn know where to get them...so what is a recipe that has ingredients that i have at home or that i could just go to the store and buy...i want a glowing face!!!pleez help (Indeed)
|
You'll probably find that Jennifer Lopez has glowing skin because of make up and lighting, but I understand what you mean when you say glowing skin. The brand Aveeno makes a line of facial cleansers that are specifically for getting 'glowing, radiant skin.' I use two of their products, one is a regular cleanser which cleans your skin but also has these little flecks of reflective particles, so your skin gets the appearance of being somewhat sparkly/radiant, without actually being covered in sparkles. Another Aveeno Skin Radiance product I use is their scrub, which exfoliates your skin. Exfoliating can really do wonders for dull looking skin. There really aren't any at home miracle ways to give your skin a healthy and nice looking glow, because if there were, everyone would be doing it. I'd suggest talking to a dermatologist (your regular doctor can set you up with an appointment if you ask). They can tell you, from an unbiased view, what your skin really needs to look its best. Plus, there are so many products just like the ones I've mentioned, that you may have a really tough time deciding what is best for your specific skin.

I'm special. I guess you are too. But I'm more special.
And smart, emo blondes will one day take over the world.
Remember that.

Well isn't that nice. We're cool. I will agree that spelling Erin the way you do is extra cool, but the basic foundation for coolness was already there.
In conclusion,
We're cool.

You took Petey away again?! I mean the picture of you is cool and all but I mean come on Petey is a classic. Maybe you can do the interesting black and white picture again WITH Petey in it. Or have two pictures. Like have this picture on top of a Petey one. It would be awesome. You know it would. But Petey is still awesomer. Thank you for taking this time to read my request. And yes I did come to your column to see if you still had the Petey picture. (Indeed)
|
Dude, come to my column to see my amazing advice, not my screwed up pictures. I just realized that last statement is laughable, everyone is here for the pictures that's why I need to keep making really weird ones.
I needed a change, and making fun of over-emotional camera whore kids seemed like a really good idea at the time. Petey isn't gone forever.

Hey guys its xo_sherry_ox and umm i went to my column and it got all crazy looking and I want to know if it looked like that to other people. So can you visit my column and see if its weird or anything..thankss i'll rate (Indeed)
