Most people use the word hoover instead of vacuum for instance even though hoover is a brand name. What is the word that you use to describe this?

I just would like to know. Since the Bible states this as one of the signs of the "the last days." 2 Timothy 3:1-5

I am in my 30's so I don't know how kids or teenagers where like 20 or 50 or 100 years ago.

I have been with my husband for 5 yrs. In this time he has yelled at me, thrown things at me, hit things across the room, cursed at me, driven receklessly, he has told me to shut up, and has said "F*** You.". He even said that based on sex alone he doesn't know if he would ask me to marry him again (my sex drive is much lower than his). He has acted out in such abusive ways to me and behaves this way in arguements or disagreements, and i asked him why does he stay with me? He said becuase he loves me. I don't think he loves me. How can a man treat a woman like this and feel he loves her? If he does not love me i just wish he would leave. Can someone please tell me why doesn't he leave? How can he tell me loves me treating me like this? Is this relationship just about power and control? I need some advise here....

I met my fiance a little over 3 years ago. shortly after we got together he told me that he was working on getting a divorce. i thought to myself, ok, no big deal, this will only take a few months to get that taken care of. as of june 2007 we have been together for 3 years, we also have a 20 month old little girl together. i am starting to wonder...why hasnt he taken care of his divorce yet...he claims it money, but there have been several time that money wouldnt have been an issue. i have often heard, why pay for the cow when you're getting the milk for free. i do love him, but im starting to wonder, why hasnt he taken care of the problem yet? i need advise on what to do, should i leave, should i stay? should i say something? i dont know.

I want to tell my boyfriend of 5 months that i love him (we're 18) but im kinda scared if he doesn't say it back. Im a bit old fashioned and not v emotional/romantic/feely etc and so not sure if i should wait for him to say it first?? He's said it to me a couple of times through text (were both shy) but not to my face and he acts like he does (puts me before friends, treats me like a princess, travels a few hours a week to see me, i could go on!) but i think im gonna burst if i don't. Do you think it would be a good idea to text him it (as he's on hol for a few weeks), and tell him when he gets back so i can see what he says OR just wait for him to say it first... I'm worried i might ruin our amazing relationship!!

I have a problem sticking with jobs. I always quit them after a month or two because I hate them. The longest job I've ever kept was 2 full years, but quit it to attend college. Then throughout college (about 6 years) I lived off of student loans and credit cards, got 1 job my freshman year that I only worked at for 2 months, and another one my junior year that I worked for 1 month and the most recent job was last year and that lasted 2 months. I quit them after a month or two cause I'm the kind of person who will not stay doing something that I can't stand. I can't leave out all of those short stints on my resume cause then it will look like I've been unemployed for 6 yrs and if I do put them on my resume, nobody will want to hire me. I wouldn't even want to hire me! What to do. What to do??
Oh and don't say something like put volunteer crap on my resume, cause I didn't volunteer anywhere since that's not my thing either. I was in a sorority in college and that was pretty much it.

Look at the nice little deal the pope made with Mussolini and the fascists. all the catholic nations of Europe have a deep fascist history. Most catholics tend to have fascist learnings.

Hello. I have an old air conditoiner. It works great when it's on. Cools down almost the whole house to the point where you can where pants on a hot and humid day. Problem is, when we shut it off manually the fan still runs, we have to unplug it to get it to shut off completly. Then in order to turn it back on, we have to go flip the switch in the fuse box ???? We would like to use it this summer as it's getting pretty hot and our 3 year old has asthma but I do not know how it's acting is a dangerous problem or just something minor that we can deal with or fix. Thanks.

In like the past few months, I've been depressed & angry, but some days it's just worse, including today and yesterday.
And I've stopped praying to the ceiling/god, because asking the ceiling/god for help does nothing at all. I stopped believing in god like last month, it wasn't doing me any good.
So any religious people that know more than I do, what do I have to do to get god to answer any prays?
and if there is no freakin god, then anti-depressants don't entirely work cause it doesn't change the situation because the ceiling/god is too lazy to help me. So how do I commit suicide quickly and painlessly? I'm hoping I won't have to do that, unless I have to.
No one comment on that last part.

well i have put my female yellow gourami and my male blue gourami into a 5gallon tank to breed. i have provided hiding places and floating plants for the bubble nest. the pair have been in the tank for a few days now and there is no sign of a bubble nest. the male is constantly chasing the female and has wounded her and nipped her finns and she rests in the bottom corner of the tank but she doesnt seem stressed at all! i was wondering if this was normal behavier and how long should it be before they spawn a nest?
i just cant find my answer on the internet and i have looked! :P
