Most advice is never taken. It follows that the practice of giving advice, while noble and compassionate, is best described as an exercise in personal exploration and growth.

P.S. Your early stuff was hysterical. Your serious answers are good, but they don't stand out. I liked you better sarcastic. Try to balance your choice of questions between the serious (like, should I sleep with my teacher) and the inconsequential (like, what should I be for Halloween?) I'm a fan. ;-)

Chicken_flavored_eggs answered Sunday October 23 2005, 7:09 pm: I would answer that question with my actions. I am not going to advance my psych degree for I know that if I did, I would slowly come to hate my life and my patients who are so profoundly fucked up that they could never actually put into effect the suggestions I have given. It would be a waste of my good thought and their money. (which actually would be MY MONEY) Most advice IS never taken. Advice only reflects upon those who give it. If they are willing to spew wisdom, those who listen shall reap the benefits. Those who cannot think for themselves seek those who think outloud.
Which is why I choose to make fun of twelve year olds who cannot spell and don't know what to be for Halloween. If they do not take my advice it is because they are psycho. They want to run cursing around movie theaters and pretend to smoke to be cool. They can talk all kinds of shit behind others backs, yet cannot muster a simple "Wanna hang out sometime?" At this age most of them cannot tell the difference between their ass and a hole in the ground. If I can point that out to them while calling them hurtful names, yet still doing them good, I shall be happy. I am glad you are a fan. I like fans. They keep me cool when it is hot outside. However, in order to keep my rating high, I must every once in a while give answers that may not stand out. It may go against all I believe in (which isn't alot) but it is a sacrifce I give to the advicenator world dominated by those who threaten one's to smart asses.
