hi.
Can y'all help me for some funny, whitty, t-shirt designs. stuff that you would like to see on t-shirts, or something?
im thinking of designing shirts, printing them, and then selling them. The only problem is ideas. thanks a bunch :) (link)
funny stuff? try looking around at things that you could MAKE funny like money or food. put a face on it and make it say something funny! here are some sayings i found.
friendship is like peeing yourself, everyone can see it but YOU can only feel the warmth it brings.
What are the three words guaranteed to humiliate men everywhere?
'Hold my purse.'
There are three sides of an argument -- your side, my side and the right side.

There is a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.

You know the speed of light;so what is the speed of dark ?
hope these are some good ones!


i have a pair of plain white nike trainers, and want to personalise them, with permanent marker or something. Any tips?
(link)
be neat with it don't rush or hurry because then it will mess up. try not to use too light colors that don't show up pick a design and maybe draw it or just imagine it. make sure you absolutely like the design before you start.


I'm getting a few facial piercings soon and I'm really excited! Piercings are so hot..okay anyways.

I want to get one on the right side of my lower lip, and one on my left eyebrow.

I have a question, though. I'm looking for a job, and most places don't like facial piercings, but once you get something pierced, it has to stay in for like 6 months for the hole to heal. I heard of putting a small circular bandaid over the piercings. Would that work? If it won't, then how would I hide it or whatever?

Also, how badly does it hurt?

Thanks! (link)
i got my ears pierced and my little sister ripped it out. i don't really like piercings and after that i gave up on ear rings. but i guess make sure NO ONE PULLS ON IT!!!! it hurts so so so so so so bad! it took forever for my ear to heal.

I really want tattoos..and through the last couple of years i got three tattoo designs that mean so much to me. I don't think i will regret them, but other people have started saying..you'll change so much, you won't like this..Anyway..on my left forearm..i want the word "imagine" written in OldEnglish font style thing. On my lower back i want the words Carpe Diem tattooed (latin for seize the day) and i want 4 stars tattooed (dif. sizes) on the back of my right shoulder (i can't think of a better place..can you?).
All these tattoos mean so much to me..they are really personal..should i accept that most people will never understand why i want them and get them done anyway?
What do you think? do they sound utterly stupid..or meaningful..any opinion counts
thanks. (link)
you know there are other ways to use those symbols if they are meaningful without tattooing. you can get them put on t-shirts or make a necklace with your designs on the string. (they have pretty much any type font or picture bead) try blue moon beads if you like the idea.


This is more a question for the ladies, but men are perfectly welcome to answer it too.

I'm a guy (obviously) and I've had long hair since I was about 17 or so (I'm 23 now). From a personal standpoint I like having long hair but I'm beginning to wonder if people see something different than what I really am when they look at me. This is especially true of the women I've dated. I seem to attract the type of women who are the complete opposite of me. Myself I'm fairly deep into the conservative side of things, I'm religious, etc... But my exes, who were attracted to guys with long hair, were almost my complete opposites on many views which eventually resulted in break-ups. I've been called a "hippie" and a few other things when I'm actually a very conservative soul.

So I guess my questions are... Do some women (possibly the ones that I would like to be with) take guys with long hair seriously? What is your first impression about the personality of a long haired guy? Do we all seem like flippant elf-boys on first glance?

I'm looking for honest opinions, not what you "THINK you'd think" but rather what you really do think if that makes any sense. And if you find this topic funny, feel free to laugh, as I am laughing right now when writing it. Also, sorry if this is in the wrong category, but I couldn't think of a better one, even the relationship category. (link)
for me i like guys with short hair... but if you really like your hair long make sure you wash it and its not stringy and scraggly. THAT looks bad TRUST ME. maybe your looking for girls in the wrong places and its not your hair? currently though my cousin is growing his hair long. but really how long is your hair? like to your shoulders? past them? if you still are looking for advice on this (because i don't know how long this has been posted)
i can ask my friend (a boy with long hair) what he thinks. just ask me a question it dosent HAVE to be a question on my thing you know at the bottom that says ask bla bla bla a question.

Goody's


me and my cousin babysit my brothers 2 year old daughter quite often. he offered to start paying us recently. he asked us how much we wanted to be payed and we told him $20 a week for each of us. we got payed last friday but we didnt get payed this friday. he told us he would pay us every friday. i depend on this money because at the moment i dont have a job, but yes i am looking for one. it just irritates me that he hasnt paid us yet. i dont know if i should say anything to him because i dont want to get in trouble by my mom. can somebody help me figure out what to do?. thanks for you help (link)
sincerely ask him when he is going to pay you. if he shrugs then tell him how much you need this. if he says today or soon or later tell him "no now" you can come up with a nicer version if you want. hes your brother he should understand.


i work at a daycare and i need some ideas of some stuff we can do with the kids like crafts and games and things like that any ideas anything will help any websites or anything (link)
try those dolls that you can stick the clothes on them and macaroni necklaces are cool too. you can get all shapes and colors and suggest they give it to one of their family members as a gift. at my little sisters day care they took shaving cream and made a picture on paper with it. let it dry and then ta DA. its really soft when dried!


i work at a day care with 3,4, and 5 year olds and i have a 3 year old who likes to spit and everything we have tried backfires also she acts out a lot throws a ton of tantrums and agrees to everything even if u say she will go to time out or go up front or something like that cause her mom works there so she thinks she will get to see her but the spitting just needs to stop but we dont know how. any ideas (link)
ask her mom what she really hates as a punishment and apply that to discipline for her.
sometimes i want to stick tape over my sisters mouth but i don't think you could do that...


ok so my older sis is 15 years old. she is getting her lisence next month. yesterday my sis was doing the laundry when she put her clothes in she didn't realize that her permit was in the back pocket! so then when she was putting them in the dryer she just realized she left it in the back pocket of her jeans that she JUST WASHED!! so then she takes out the permit. there it was all weird feeling, and all wrinkly. (kinda like cotton) to get another permit u have to pay $35!! SO PLEASE help me and my sis make up a story that my parents will believe so they won't find out it got ruined cause she washed it!! (link)
i agree to tell the truth, if it makes you feel better one time i washed my new blackberry witch i had saved up for for like months!


my room is always messy and when i start to clean it i always get distracted and start doing something eles like going on the computer, i really want to clean my room up is there a way i can make it fun and get the job done (link)
i listen to my i pod or CD player the best thing for me is to have the music extremely loud so i get really in the mood. maybe pick a song JUST for cleaning tell your self "i can only listen to this one fav. song if i clean something" trust me, it works!


My sister just moved out. Her room was in the basement, and used to be a kitchen so there are cabinets and a sink and a stove. the owner refuses to take it down. I want to make this MY AREA! i plan to put in a futon, tv, maybe my computer and just have it be my "extra" room. The walls are white and the bottom half is light wood. I am not renovating, just redecorating/painting. I want some tips on what color I should paint the top half, the bottom is light stained wood. i want a relaxing but bright tone. It is in the basement with no window! What color do you suggest. Remember warm, inviting color that still brightens up the room? (link)
i think a rosy pink would work its inviting and warm but is still cheerful.


i have this friend, N. shes on medication for depression and goes to see a theropist once every week or something. her mom is an alcoholic, and that being said, N drinks and smokes pot mostly because her mom wouldnt like it. her mom also emotionally abuses her and yells at her all the time, and their level of communication is -10. N sometimes gets on my nerves, for instance: she'll call herself a junkie because she took a sleeping pill and liked the effect. she'll call herself a stoner because she'd smoke a little weed every night for a week and get kind of high, and actually thinks shes addicted to it. and she'll call herself a slut just because she made out with someone she wasnt dating. she tries to be all these things that shes not, just to get on her moms nerves, or just to go against her wishes.

and usually when she does this, im very cold to her and give her short replies to her questions and stay mad at her for a while.

well, tonight, i guess it all broke loose. she took 5 shots earlier before going to church to see her best friend, S. S and N have been best friends for a long time, and they both come from disfunctional families and get along great and always have fun together. N's mom doesnt like S because she thinks shes a bad influence on her daughter, and therefore wont N see her. N has been upset about this for a long time, and her relationship with S has gone down the drain because of it. they still talk, but they arent best friends anymore. N had a fight with her mom earlier and texted me about it and i was still mad at her from something stupid she said earlier, so i wasnt there for her when things were going bad. next thing i know, N is texting me, telling me "goodbye" and saying she loves me and that shes sorry for everything. we had just started texting, so i was confused as to why she wanted to say bye...

i called her up and she was bawling her eyes out and was about to kill herself. i offered to ask my parents to come and get her, but she said it'd just make things worse with her mom. i didnt know what else to do! i couldnt give her any advice, and my mind just went blank. all i could tell her was to not do anything she'd regret, and that i love her. i made her promise she wouldnt OD on anything, and we hung up. ive been kicking myself in the ass for this for hours. i dont know what else to do.

what can i say to make her feel better? all her friendships have gone to hell because of her mom and her mom is ruining her life and i dont know what to do or say to make her feel better. i just feel like a bad friend because friends are supposed to help eachother, but i cant help her! what do i do?!?!?

*sorry this is so long, but it was a long story.. (link)
Don't panic!
that's number one.
it sounds like she needs some serious help. don't kick yourself. you have a couple options.
1. talk to your guidance teacher at your school and then talk to your friend about going to see him/her
2. comfort her just say soothing things and tell her the bad image she makes herself look.
3. don't get mad at her. she really needs help i know it might be hard but you have to feel sorry for her instead.
4. and it is important to not get to mixed up in this mess with her mom and her. don't let her mom hurt your friendship though.
5. talk to her about calling herself these things and how bad it is. tell her of a good future the future she will have if she stops all her bad habits and becomes a good person, maybe suggest donating to a charity for people in her position?


Ok i have these two girls that like me and i dont know who to choose i was hoping to get some opinions or advice

girl number one: i went out with before but it ended pretty quickly because she still loved her old boyfriend but we have remained really close friends since and there has always been something. now she said she always liked me and broke up with her bf to go out with me and i said ok but im afraid it will happen again. but we get along great, alot in common, lots of communication.but im not sure if i can readjust to becomeing more than friends again. even thought i keep thinking this is my chance to get her back,what iv wanted for so long...but im not sure if i want it.

girl 2: a girl that broke up with me a month ago. because she thought it was for the best and didnt want to hurt me, but she did alot because of the way it happened because she is really bad with communicating. I like her more that girl one but im so afraid ill get hurt again and im pretty sure i will. but she said she would really try and it feels right with her, even though i think it will just be temporarily happy because shes so complicated. she only told me all of thise when she saw me with girl one and it hurt too much and she realised etc.(we live in the same house)

but now im still going out with girl one and i have to choose but im so afraid of hurting girl one because i value her so much as a friend and in general. and im afraid im going to lose one of them so im not sure what to do

thanks (link)
I think that you need to go over your feelings for both girls. when you do this don't worry about hurting someone, think about your future and your success and happiness. you seem like a good person for caring about hurting others but its time to think.ask yourself these questions.
1. who do i really feel happy around?
2. who do i want to spend time with?
3. who has better character?
4. who is more promising to be someone to stay with me?
5. do i love "girl one" enough to deal with the distance?
6. am i careful about what i say around "girl 2"?
7. who works best with my personality?


17/girl.
(This may be long, sorry.)
I'm really confused about my one best friend. Her name is Sara and she is really nice and funny, and she is like my best friend since 6th or 7th grade. (I'm in 10th right now.) So we've been pretty close for awhile. Well, this year I made a ton of new really close friends, and I introduced them to her and they liked her (they weren't like friend though) but they thought she was nice and everything. Sara has a really great personality, except for one tiny flaw. She is a hugeeeeee liar. She did something really mean to one of my very close friends. I'm not going to explain it, because it is very long. But, she did something so unbelievable, you wouldn't even think of it. But anyway, that happened a few months ago. She basically went behind my back, lied, hurt me, and 5 other people.. at least, and it was just horrible. I was so in shock, I didn't know how to handle it. So, I never really like yelled at her for it or anything, it was just so unbelievable. Well anyway, I don't trust anything she says anymore. I know she is still lying about a lot of stuff. It's really hard to be best friends with someone when you don't trust them.. i'm afraid to bring it up because i hate confrontation and it just sometimes doesn't seem worth it. It bothers me everyday, all of my other friends absolutely hate her. So, it also makes hanging out with all of them on weekends hard too. She doesn't have many friends, besides me and maybee like 3 other people, tops. So, it's hard to just ditch her. I don't really want to do that anyway though. What should I do? I'm so confused.

If you'd like to know the full story, let me know. :) it gets really into detail, and anyone willing to listen and give me more advice, that would be greatttt. thank youuu. (link)
you shouldn't let her hurt your relationship with other people. first tell her the truth about how she acts if she doesn't clean up her act then you need to let her go. she can still be your friend but not your best friend. obviously its not a tiny flaw, she has something wrong and she might hurt you or one of your friends again. there are plenty of decent people in the world don't let her affect you.


Let me start off by saying that I'm not religious. I don't fast for fitness or because I believe some god is smiling on me because I starve myself, but I made a promise to myself this year. I have spent much of the last three years in what most people call the third world. I have seen people that don't have the luxury of every day. Now that I am back in the U.S. I have decided that I will fast ever day from May 10 to May 13 to remember how fortunate I am to live in a country where things like eating are taken for granted. I just want to know if there are any serious health risks. I start tomorrow, any motivation or advice from people who fast for any reason is greatly appreciated.

“It is poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.”

-Mother Teresa (link)
i think that's great just make sure that when you are fasting that you drink PLENTY of water if you don't you could get seriously dehydrated. a lot of the water you get is from food so you need to make up for that.


I'm not sure where to put this exactly so I'm sorry if this isn't the right category.

I have really broad shoulders for a girl and it's one of the things I've always been self-conscious about. I always wear shirts with sleeves on them because I feel really uncomfortable showing my upper arms which are kinda flabby and my broad shoulders. I was just wondering if there was any way for me to make them a bit.. smaller I guess, not so manly. Any advice will be greatly appreciated! (link)
two things.

1. try some upper arm exercises do them twice a week or every day. after a little the flabby should be gone. lifting weights help, u can look up online at fitness websites for exercises.

2. i don't know if there is a way to make your shoulders smaller... but i do know that if you watch the Olympics in swimming you will see that all the girls there have broad shoulders and it doesn't look bad! it makes you look strong but you can still be elegant and pretty with them. everything looks worse to the actual person then other people so don't worry about it im sure your shoulders look fine!
