hello i name is matthew nickname 'mace windu'

i would like to ask why gils hate me. i think its because i chat them up too much and they think its disgusting but dont girls want peole to chat them up otherwise would they chat boys up and stuff like that so i can wait for gils to chat me up and make my day then we can have a date and maybe get engaged and then married and have a baby or five

also what is schrodinger's cat and why do people sya it's both daed and alive

goodday and ciao ~ mace (link)
Hi mace,

well, different girls have different preferences, so while some girls like the guy to chat them up, others may not. it all depends on her character, so do use your own discretion. i guess the more outspoken girls would take the initiative to talk to the guy first, though i wouldn't advise you to wait for girls to chat you up. you might end up waiting forever. if you really like the girl then go talk to her, but don't come across too aggressively.

i did a little google search on schrodinger's cat and stumbled on this very fascinating theory of physics (and i say this with no sarcasm intended at all). here's the link to a website that provides an easy-to-understand summary of it. hope it answers your question.

alright, good luck with your love life and have fun with the cat.

to everyone: happy new year! :)

i have a friend who refuses to be a pain in my neck. instead, he chooses to be a pain in the a**. why can't he be content to be a pain in the side? and why is it that most pains are MALE?
curious (link)
hi pain,

i don't know why your friend chose the lower part of your anatomy to be a pain in. the choice is entirely up to him, isn't it? modern society advocates freedom of choice, darling. you should respect that.

most pains are male because, well, that's the only thing they can do.

luv, xt :)


Hi, can you help me with this question?

In a game, a player throws two unbiased dice. If he scores 12, he receives $1; if he scores 11, 10 or 9, he receives 40 cents. What is his expected winnings if he has to pay 15 cents for each throw of two dice?

-zippy. (link)
dear zippy,

you sound like a gambler here. i am no mathematician, but my guess would be:
cost = $0.15 (to throw 2 dice)
receives for scoring at 9/10/11 = $0.40
hence winnings = $(0.40 - 0.15) = $0.25

should he win [the chance of getting at least 9 = (1/6 x 1/6) x 4 = 1/12], he will earn at least $0.25.

assuming he throws 12 times to guarantee at least 1 hit, he will actually lose money as $0.25 - $(0.15 x 12) = -$17.75.

i suggest that your friend tries playing the stock market instead.

good luck!

luv, xt :)


hi i would like to ask what keeps you awake at night for me it's the thought that monsters will eat me alive

and why did u delete my friends question

-robert (link)

i don't know who your friend is, but i only answer questions that make sense. the rest, i delete.

xt

p.s. i'm quite sure you are "your friend".


I have a friend who is incurably addicted to orlando bloom's HAIR. I don't get what is so nice about his hair. does she like it because it's blonde or something? or is it very spiky and nice-smelling? I only like legolas' hair. i thought it was long, girly and wayyyy coool... so do you have any suggestions as to how to cure my friend the addict? she really is a very sad case. and im CONCERNED.
yours sincerely,
concerned friend of addict (link)
dear concerned friend of addict,

it's nice to see that you're so caring for your friend. however, as i am not your friend, i have no idea why she is addicted to his hair. i doubt it's because it's blonde because it isn't. it isn't spiky either. maybe it's just cos it looks nice.

i'm not sure how your friend can be addicted to hair. perhaps you would like to write back and give me an example of what happens? for the time being, maybe you could make her wear a blindfold permanently, or somehow persuade orlando to go bald. the latter isnt such a good idea, you might incur the wrath of his millions of fangirls. including me.

luv, xt :)


hey xt i just wanted to know when does friendship die off. (link)
hey love?,

wow this is a really tough question. what do you mean by friendship dies off? like the friendship is ended, you sever ties with that person and no longer talk to each other? or when friendship becomes love?

well i'm not psychologist/philosopher, so i can't really answer this. i guess it's a question for everyone to ponder, and everyone has his/her own opinion. i'd like to know what's yours, so write back anytime! :)

luv, xt :)

to seLlYbo|bOI:

stop posting stupid questions because from now, any questions you ask that are of a retarded nature will be promptly rejected.

i will answer you for the last time.

to find your dog, either post notices everywhere, or make a police report. you can also mobilise your friends and family to search the areas you think Ferari will be in.

otherwise, die now.

hi im yuanz.! im having alot of trouble sleeping lately. last night, i went to bed at 1230am and lay in bed till 4am, till i finally gave up and woke up to watch tv. i managed to sleep from 530am to 9am and then went to school for my training. after exerting myself physically quite abit, i thought i would be able to sleep. However, i could not sleep for the whole afternoon. It's currently 1.55am now and i have to get up at 830am tmr. what can i do to help myself sleep? my eyes are tired and bloodshot but yet my mind still seems so active. i dont want to take sleeping pills because my dad says i'll become reliant on them, and i also do not have access to them. is there another way i can help myself sleep? (link)
hi yuanz.! :)

since physical exertion doesn't seem to help, you could try exhausting your mind instead. i agree with your father about the sleeping pills.

a few things you could try out:
1. counting sheep. the good ole tried and tested way. if you count up to 10 000 000 000 sheep and you are still awake, you should either switch to counting blades of grass or proceed to method 2.
2. your eyes are tired and therefore you shouldn't watch anymore tv. so, while lying in bed, close your eyes and let them rest. your active mind can then proceed to think. pick the most complicated math equation you can find and memorise it. when you can't sleep, try and prove the equation in your head. if you manage to do so and are still awake, then try to prove the equation wrong. if you are still awake by then, i suggest you enrol at Mensa where they will have exercise to work your brain cells.
3. finally, when all else fails, get your dad to knock you out.

zzz...

who is jeremy yap? (link)
hi person-who-left-no-name,

jeremy yap is a person.

luv, xt :)


how can u make uself look like jaws for less then $10

regads ~~ Anold Swatchnager AKA terminalater

PS parden my engllsih si poor not moder tongue of me (link)
dear Anold Swatchnager AKA terminalater,

your feeble attempt at communicating in english is excused, though i had to read it thrice before decided it was not Martian.

to make yourself look like jaws, (i suppose you are referring to the shark in that famous movie?), you could go to Spotlight and buy some grey and white cloth. then sew sew and sew. however, judging by your body size, you might need more than $10 worth of cloth and thread. good luck.

luv, xt :)


I REALLY NEED YOUR ADVICE!!
my name is laurie. im 16 yrs old...i like this guy (we'll call him bob)..well..he asked me to go on a date and i said yes. but then i found out that night that my best friend likes him to, and she didnt really know i liked him..so she thinks she 'claimed' him first. so i was a good friend and canceled the date b/c i didnt want to ruin my friendship with her. well turns out my best friend goes on a date with bob..and she acts like it was no big deal..and plus she ditched me that night and yada yada..well i was mad that she ditched me. but i was acceptable to the fact that she went on this date..and she acted like it was no big deal. well turns out bob didnt like the date, and was way more intrested in me. and i like him SO much, and he tells me he wants to be with me...and the more i talk to him the more i want to be with him. i think its only fair though that i can have my chance with him since my best friend got hers you know?..but i dont want to do anything i regret! i really really want to be with this guy and he says he wants to be with me to..
i would really appreciate your honest advice.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! (link)
dear laurie,

it was really noble of you to let your best friend (shall we call her A?) date bob first, especially since you like him so much. this shows that you really treasure the friendship between you and A.

it seems that things between bob and A didn't turn out so well. i agree that since A has had her chance, you should get yours too. however, you might want to take her feelings into consideration. it appears that A has strong feelings for bob too. so, perhaps you can get bob to gently break the news to her that he doesnt want to be with her.

as for you getting together with bob, i suggest that you guys give A some time to calm down and get over it before dating, because since you and A are so close, it could affect her greatly. when A is over it, then you and bob can be together. as for now, why not get to know each other as friends first? you'll understand each other more and then you can decide whether you really want to be with him or not.

whatever you decide, if your friendship with A is strong enough, i'm sure it will withstand whatever challenges you have. my best wishes to you. :)

luv, xt :)


hi. i'm a 10 yr old boy. y do my parents love me so much? especially my mum. she always says she loves me. can she be my girlfriend in disguise? (link)
hi,

it's cool that a 10 year old is writing to me. :) well, it's wonderful to know that your parents love you so much! :) i'm not a parent myself so i don't really know why, but it could be because you are their child and part of the family. your mom is really nice to express herself to you like this! if you are curious to know why your parents dote on you, ask them!

however, your mom can NOT be your girlfriend in disguise for a number of reasons.
1. she is your mother. that would be incest.
2. you are only 10! you are too young to date!
3. and finally, if your mom can be your girlfriend in disguise, how about asking your dad to be your boyfriend in the open?

luv, xt :)


yozzz =)

what should i dress for halloween party next year i must think now to be preprad

1) pingpong man
2) superman
3) taxi driver
4) green rapper

help or i'll die (link)
dear ping pong man,

kindly leave a name to which i can respond to at the end of your question. it can be rather irritating to answer a question to which i can put no sort of identity to. if you continue to ask me questions without leaving a name, i will not answer them.

please stop playing with your life like this. i don't know what a ping pong man is. is a green rapper a hiphopper covered in leaves or an environmentally-friendly one? superman seems quite common, while to be a taxi driver you would need a taxi, which can be a very expensive prop. it is sort of early to start planning, but hey, if you think you'll need a year to do your costume, why not. ultimately, it is up to you.

just don't dress up as jeremy yap.

luv, xt :)


hi there's this guy i hate a lot and i woulod love to push him off a tall building - perhaps a HDB flat or suntec city. what is the minimum height i must push him off the building such that he can attain terminal velocity before he hits the ground? he has an approximate mass of 65kg and the acceleration due to gravity can be taken to be 9.81m/s^2.
thanks, your help is much appreciated. ~sAd bOi wItH nO fReNs (link)
hi there sAd bOi wItH nO fReNs,

i don't recommend that you push anyone off buildings. as far i know it's not legal. but since you want to know...

skip the physics. just push him off a 50-storey building. he'll definitely die.

luv, xt :)


yozz =)

me and my dog are rivaling for fantasy football and my team is

salgado chimbonda zambrotta
vieira zidane ronaldinho figo totti
saha huth

i think i want to use jeremy yap as striker u tink it works? (link)
dear yozzzz,

no, i don't think it works.

luv, xt :)


yello =)

pleas hlep me with this hard quetion for schoolwrok: (its duew tommorow)

jeremY yap have 16 sweats. he share them equally with his girlfriend and the doggy ated 2. meanwile a rocket flied past and stole jeremy socks how many sweats do he has left???

i cant do it but my wroking woz:::

16-2 + 120 = 14 +120 = 16.0 sweats

i got the rite anser but i think my wrok is wrong =( im gonna die if i dont get this rite =( (link)
hi a hard mats questoin about rockets and sweats =) =),

well, i'm not that great at math either, but from the question... the rocket flying past jeremy and stealing his socks has nothing to do with his sweats right? so based on that assumption, the working should be as follows:
no. of sweats after sharing with gf = 16/2 = 8
no. of sweats left after dog ate = 8 - 2 = 6
answer: 6 sweats

hope i was of help! :)

luv, xt :)


yello =)

recently i quarels with my galfriend she says she like other boy i am sad =(

what is so bad abot me that my galfriend hates please tells me or i will go die now (link)
dear plesae help i am going die,

please DON'T go and die. from what you told me, i don't think that there is anything bad about you that your girlfriend hates. it seems that she has fallen for someone else instead. it is normal to feel sad about this. since your girlfriend has said that she likes another boy, i think you should move on and don't let this affect you. it is obvious that she doesn't like you (anymore) so there is no point in moping about her. i'm sure somewhere out there, there is someone waiting for you. all you have to do is go and find her.

luv, xt :)


hello =)

i thik i borke my neck while trying to kill a wale becaue the wale bit it so it's like yeow! ouch ouch ouch etc

any advis on fixing my neck please should i ask the wale to send me to teh dotor (link)
hello ouch :)

your situation sounds painful. i didn't know whales bit humans. if you suspect a broken neck, i suggest you see a doctor immediately for medical attention. otherwise, your neck could take even longer to heal. you could ask the whale (btw it's wHale, not wale.) to send you to the doctor and demand compensation etc, but i doubt that would work as 1. i don't think whales can drive and 2. whales don't have money do they? so i think you should send yourself to the doctor.

take care and get well soon! :)

luv, xt :)
