When browsing through this surprisingly interesting site, a rather sad fact was brought to my attention: I could not find one comment, question, or otherwise significantly sized statement written by a user in which any of the basic rules of grammar and word placement were properly utilized. I was suddenly compelled, in a lightening-like flash to become the only bitter and or cynical advisor who had a justifiable reason to be cocky and detached. And then, in an instant, I tripped over a radioactive bucket of waste that may have been a friend of mine and became ‘Angst Ridden Teen Who is Conveniently Masked by The Internet’! Now equipped with super bitchifying glowing lasso action!

My little cousin has down syndrome, and alot of my friends always make fun of people with it and it really can hurt me, i*ve told them before and they say sorry and everything, but they keep saying stuff! What should I tell my friends? Or should I look for new ones? I dunno!! (link)

People tend to make fun of things they don't understand. This sad fact is a product of their being afraid of the unknown; when it doubt, laugh about it. They will always be afraid of people who have different functional processes than their own, unless of course they become familiar with said people. I'm not sure what the best solution in this case would be, other than to simply accept their ignorance and fear as a part of their human nature. Even if it hurts, it is honestly no different than eating food when hungry; such reactions to fear are completely normal. Try to be accepting of them, and realize that they just don't understand. This is one of those things you may have to let slide, even the greatest people fall victum to nature.

(link)

It's not that you are not 'prettier and better'
and it shouldn't be for everyone else.
The problem from what I see is your confidence. Be assertive, throw away the shy act, or she will Always steal your friends. I had a friend like that as well, she was not very pretty and she pleanty of my boyfriends. It's all about who honestly believes they are better, and diserving of attention and care.
Good luck, and I suggest you overcome that fear of talking to your friends, it might do the relationship some good if you were honest with her. Keeping problems to yourself has always seemed like a dirty trick to me, becuase she can't fix it if she doesn't know it's bothering you.

how do i lose weight in my thighs and calves?? (link)
|
Whatever you do, do arobic exorcises. Anarobic does nothing but make your muscles bigger, and it looks bad underneath chub. Try jogging for 30-60min 3 times a week, streach a lot, buy a workout video that includes arobic exorcises (Yoga, Pilates)
Good Luck

Well me and my ex boyfriend Kevin just broke up yesterday....well today someone called me and was like you dont know me but i am one of phylicias friends and do you care if her and Kevin go out so i sed no...nut i really do care alot...Phylicia is like my BEST friend in the world and i still like kevin but i dont know? What should i do? (link)
| |
If she is having a friend call for her, and doesn't even have the gumption to speak to your face, I don't think she's much of a friend anyway. Friends don't go out with their friends ex's when they are being reasonable. Even if you said it was ok, she should know it isn't. I would take them both out of my life, if I were you, they are bad news.

If you were never friends, perhaps you should rethink whether you like him or whether you are simply lusting for him for some other reason before you speak your feelings. I realize they have been there for 3 years, but seemingly you have had no means to identify them as 'liking him'.
I once had a dream about a boy in junior high, and had a crush on him for several years, I did not like him, and he had a terrible personality. I simply fantasized.
If you find you honestly do like him, after thinking it over, you might try to become friends with him, strike up casual conversation; take your time before you actually make a move. Just going up to him and saying 'I like you' will most probably scare him off.
Good Luck!

wut does it mean when a guy looses his erection? (link)
|
That actually depends on the male. If a young man is perfectly healthy, he may lose an erection when normally aroused for no reason at all, once in a while. If he is grown and not yet middle aged, it is probably because he was turned off. If he is older it may be age-triggered impotency.
Most probably it was just an incident with the male's body, and had nothing to do with the female. It just happens sometimes, it cannot really be remedied unless it is triggered by age or disease. I suggest, if this is a problem, to purchase a devise (namely a penis ring, placed at the base of the penis to increase blood sustention in the body) which aids in this specific thing. If it is not a reoccurring problem, it was most probably a freak accident.
Even if not, there is no need to worry, sometimes such things are a result of tension, so worry will only make things worse.
Good luck!

My 14th birthday is comin up soon and i want to get my belly button pierced for my birthday because i have a nice body and with my belly button pierced, it would look really good. My parents said i couldn't get anymore piercings cuz i already have three piercings on my left and right ears and one more piercing on the top of my left ear. I really want my belly button pierced and i dont know how to convince both of my parents to let me get it done. Can someone please help me out lol? One more thing, if anyone would like to tell me how you get your belly button pierced like how they do it and etc, that would really help so i can show my parents and maybe they would let me get my belly button pierced.
Thanks (link)

Alright, the way it is done.
I've had my bellybutton pierced in many different places, and have several other piercings on my body, so this is strait from my experience. They pull out the upper skin of your belly button with clamps, and stick a 14g needle (some people use hollow needles [in this case a piece of your skin will come out} and others use solid needles [which take out no skin]) through this skin in a rather quick, forceful downward motion. They then guide the ring or curved barbell through the newly created hole, and put the ball(s) on the end(s) of the jewelry piece.
It is Much different from ear piercings, which are normally done by means of a gun and are far less painful. You may want to look the process up online, and reconsider whether You want this done, before you try talking to your parents about it.
When you do talk to them, you might tell them that you can always take this piercing out and have no permanent scar, which their main concern. You might tell them that if you ever need to remove it for any reason, there will be no trace of evidence that it ever existed. Other than that, yes you are rather young, yes the process is painful and the piercing has the second highest probability for infections of all piercings (second only to genital piercings). Having this done to your body is a huge responsibility, you Must clean it every few hours and make sure it isn’t irritated, and you must obey all instructions given, or it may get infected and could be very dangerous.

Alright, some do's and don'ts
High school is basically the most overly exaggerated, dramatized, and pressured situation you will ever find yourself in. People will blow things out of proportion for 4 years strait, and you will look back and laugh. The best thing to Do is to stay calm, chill out, it Really isn't as bad as people make it out to be. Friends will come to you if you are confident in yourself, stand tall, and Do Not BY ANY MEANS join in on the idiotic games the people of high school tend to play. By this I mean, do not get into drama involving relationships, do not get in between people when they are fighting, it’s best to just stay out of things like that. Do be as supportive as you can, be nice to people, and try not to be cocky or overly dramatic. Peer pressure is just a bitch, don't buy into it. You may get the illusion that doing a bunch of drugs and sleeping with the football team will get you friends. This is a big mistake, you might be more popular for a few minutes, but soon after you do something like this everyone will begin to mock you. My suggestion? Make friends the real way, by being nice, confident, and supportive.
And remember, stay out of the drama.

do chocolate and soda cause or give you give you pimples / acne ?!?!
any websites about chocolate or soda pop causing acne? (link)
| |
No, the foods you eat do not give you pimples, this is a myth. I work for a doctors' office and frequently speak to the employed doctors about the facts and myths of certain disorders I have had. Acne is basically several bacterial infections in the skin of the face. This skin tends to be very oily and porous so bacteria will find it easy to grow here. The best thing to do is to get on a daily oral antibiotic and a topical medication, but unless you put oil on your face, you should not be any more prone to getting zits. If you have greasy fingers, and touch your face, yes you may, but eating the food unless you are allergic to it can Never cause a breakout unless it carries the bacteria, in which case you shouldn't be eating it.

ok.... i was planning on dieing my hair this thursday. what i was going to do was die it brown underneath and on top put some sandy blonde highlights with some platinum blonde highlights.. do those two hair colors go together(the platinum and sandy blonde)? i tried looking up stuff to see what it would look like but nothing seems to come up on google or yahoo so if anyone has any ideas on where i can find these two colors put together that would help me a lot... or if anyone knows if these twos colors go together that would be great.. thank you!
(link)
|
The two colours go well together, but the different bleach tents will be hard to accomplish, and one of the colours may not match your skin-tone. I would go to Sally's or another beauty supply store, and look at the hair samples next to your skin and next to each other to see what is the most appealing choice.
(Oh! And the words are Dye and Dying when you are referring to hair =P)
|
I had a friend, Trey Davis, well he died because he was chasing after his dog and a car hit and killed him. I wanna see how he's doing, and I wanna tell him how I'm doing. Sometimes I feel like he's with me, gaurding me. But at other times, I feel sooo alone. I wanna know if you can help me out plz!
.::Chelsea::. (link)

How he is doing depends on what he has decided to do. A soul will go wherever it believes it will go, if he was Christian and believed himself to be a good person, he may have decided to be trapped in a manufactured heaven, or if he believed himself to be a bad person, he may have trapped himself in a manufactured hell. If he was not Christian, he may have remained on earth, somewhat confused, or moved on by reincarnation to a new body...or even to become a higher being. You will probably not be able to contact him, and if you take steps to do so, the situation can get very dangerous. I don't like saying that I have no answer, but I do not. If you try to contact him you open a sort of portal that will allow anyone and anything to come through, and even pretend to be this friend. Wherever he is, that is where his soul wanted to be. Secondly, if you feel a presence, it is almost definitely not be his. Chances are you should take measures to remove the spiritual bodies from your home, because they will make you believe they are someone that they never were. Be careful. I am sorry for your loss, just try to understand that his soul is content, because it decides to be where it is.
Contacting those who are no longer living is just a bad idea. I wish I could help you.

Hey, I stumbled onto your column. The picture is cool, I was wondering if it came from the dreaded ice storm in new england U.S. a while back. OH, I also wanted to say that I can't read any of the questions and answered on your page because of the picture, so you might want to change that. (link)
|
I know, I couldn't find the right colour, but if you highlight the text you can read it...
I took the picture during a freak blizzard in the southwestern US (where I reside), I'm somewhat of a photographer. I decided that the blood-red and the snowy appearance of the tree had a better effect than the legibility of another colour.

|
WOW so all this REALLY happened.. that must havebeen really scary for you.. smoking mirrors and stuff.. but how did u get in contact with this spirit?? (link)
| |
I'd rather not tell you how I did that because I'm afraid you'd try to imitate my actions. It did really happen, and has happened to many of my friends. Just please take my advice and don't get into it.
|
Okay this isnt exactly... a reading thing. I really want to connect with a spirit.. but NOT a dark one... i want something okay.. it doesnt have to be godly... just not from below. If anyone knows how to help me get in touch with any "good spirits" please let me know!!!!
THankss (link)
|
I was once a person who as constantly in contact with the spirit world...with 'good spirits'
Until I decided that I was going to study for a few test one week, and my mirrors started smoking, the doors slamming. There is no good spirit, they just want the energy you give off, its rejuvenating. This concept is very hard to understand...but think of it this way: If you had a few chickens, would you kill them for the meat, or let them stay a while and lay some eggs?
Good spirits just want the eggs as well, eventually they will become bad, because if they wanted to be in true contact with the living, they could simply take on a new body. They mean nothing but harm, give it up before it begins.

Okay...for the past two years about...on and off I've been having these bad thoughts. I don't even know why...but during the day I tend to just think really bad things and I can't even help it...
Does this make me a bad person??
I just feel like I have a lot of anger...and I don't even know why. Some days I feel fine...and happy and normal...and then at night I have these bad thoughts and I can't even help it.
They go on and off and if they go away they only stay away for about a month. After about a month or so they come back and I don't even know why. It's like something triggers it or something...
It's not like I even havv bad dreams...just bad thoughts and I can't stand them. I hate them so much I just want them to go away.
I mean, I know everyone in the world has at least SOME bad thoughts sometime in their life but I tend to dwell on mine...and I can't even help it.
I used to actually wake up my parents sobbing and I didn't know how to tell them I have bad thoughts...because I didn't want them to think I was going crazy or something...I seriously am afraid I'm gonna go crazy one day. I feel like such a bad person and I don't know what to do because I can't even help it...
---> and I know I sound really stupid asking a question like this but I just want to know...am I a bad person?? Please help...
I usually always cry about these thoughts but lately I havent been. I've just been trying to put them aside and it doesn't always work that way. I hate it so much you don't understand. These thoughts feel like they are wearing me out into nothing...I feel like I'm destined to be a bad and angry person...
Just please help me...I gotta go I was gonna type more...but I just gave you the gist...
Please help me asap. I have no clue why I have these thoughts and I hate them...please tell me...is this normal? Do any of YOU have bad thoughts...am I gonna go crazy and is there a choice between good and bad...
I mean, I wanna be good obviously...but I hate these thoughts and I can't even help it...ERRR please help...I hate it so much...I'm begging you...any advice ... just take your best shot please.
(and please don't think I'm weird...I couldnt bear that)_\
Everyone has choices, right? (link)

especially if the person with those feelings doesn't want to face them. Anger will be vented through any possible out, in such a situation. For instance, your mother tells you to clean your room, and suddenly you think 'I f***ing hate you you c**ksucing c*nt, Why don’t you go swallow a few blades, get it on video camera!' when really, you don't want that to happen, its jut an impulsive reaction to overly large amounts of stress.
People think things all the time that they would never mean, believe it or not, it’s all about anger, and compulsion due to overload.
My suggestion? Brace yourself, it sounds very cliché and ineffective, but I assure you it works. Meditate. Not like Gandhi, just find your own way of being alone and completely serene, a time to face such thoughts and frustrations before they become violent. Music, stretching, therapeutic tapes, none of this is Necessary, just find whatever stance in which you feel the most relaxed, and use that stance to think about what angers you. You may not feel angry one day, but it’s very possible that you just aren’t facing it, like the majority of us. So think 'did that really make me angry, when she told me my room smelled' 'How did that make me feel?'
I promise, if you continue to do this, to face and pacify anger, the thoughts will shrink to a minimal if not completely disappear.

im so confused. i like this kid alot and everytime we go to a party together we hang around eachother and if i sit by him he will pull me on his lap and things that that...flirting wit me and i flirt back. then his friend asked him if he liked me and he said no. maybe he was embarressed? but then later he asked me for my number and he called me twice and we talked for about 2 hours each time. we flirt and everything and weve become friends. shud i say nething to him about it? or just let it be? cuz i wanna be more then just friends...and i htink he does too. (link)
| |
The fact that he flirts with you and yet doesn’t commit to his actions by actually asking you out is evidence to me that he is scared of either commitment or embarrassment/rejection. This means he would probably be more comfortable with your making the first move, but I don't know that what makes him comfortable is the best thing to do. Just think calmly about what you want to do, and I assure you, your advice (being that you understand the situation) will be better than what I could guess. =)

i was jw...is it wrong to maturbate???is there a lotta people that do it???please answer...thank you (link)
|
There are certain religious fanatics who believe that anything but sexual intercourse with the opposite sex which has the chance of producing offspring is wrong. Thusly, to them, sex with a condom is wrong, and masturbation would be, as well.
Somewhere in Leviticus there is a passage that states 'it is better to spill your seed in the belly of a whore than on the ground.' So whether it’s wrong depends on who you are asking.
But no, I don't think it’s wrong, I don’t generally listen to religious fanatics.
