on Y!A, while this forum gives opportunity to answer questions and engage in meaningful dialogue with others, it also provides the opportunity to become totally anonymous. While there is nothing wrong eith that, I believe some answerers take this opporunity to launch the most brutal and vicious attacks on people they know nothing about. Perhaps they forget they are dealing with much more than an avatar and are interacting with human beings who have feelings, and can be hurt by unprovoked and venomous attacks. My dear friend on Y!A was attacked in a most vicious way for asking a legitimate question. I watched in amazement and dismay as about 90% of answerers took it upon themselves to call her names and offend her dignity without knowing the first thing about her. Yes, the question was legitimate and asked in a most polite way.
No, reporting such people is not an answer. I sense fear in such people. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate and hate is a sure path into the dark side.

Is it against the law to park on the other side of the street in front of someone's driveway? I have a neighbor who is a real $#@! who complains about this.

To explain it better, if you're coming down the street, his house and driveway are on the left and my house is on the right. I park on the right side of the street, which lines up with his driveway on the left side.

Last night when I smoked I became incredibly paranoid to the point of which I felt a "geforce" vibe in my body and I felt like I was going to die... I know what you're thinking right now.. I was paranoid as I smoked cannabis.. But this wasn't normal. This was too intense, like I seriously couldn't function.. I smoked a little less than a gram of dank kine bud (kb) in a dutch. I smoke maybe once a week if that.. I'm thinking I somehow overdosed on weed and my body couldn't handle what I smoked... I ended up going to sleep as I couldn't stop shaking and I couldn't control my geforce-like effects in my body... Has anyone ever felt this horrible feeling? I dislike it.. I usually just get extremely relaxed on weed, not paranoid (very little)... but last night I completely couldn't function and I just had to go to sleep as my only option..

I'm a good students. I'm involved in a lot things like: 3 different youth groups, I went to Hebrew High, FBLA, business program over the summer, 3.5 GPA, dance for 15 years, camp counselor, camp for 8 years, director of a play, i edited a book, cafe employee, but I have terrible SAT scores. I have a 490 in math, 470 in critical reading, a 540 in math but an 11 on my essay. (the 11 doesn't matter because no schools look at it) I'm only in one IB class (its like AP) but that is drama, everything else is just advanced. I'm applying to Penn Sate University, its not my #1 school but I would really consider going if I got in. Just in case I'm applying to a satellite school Altoona but I don't know much about it. If anyone can tell me some good satellite schools for me that would be so helpful! Thanks guys!

A guy dies and is sent to Hell. Satan meets him, shows him doors to three rooms, and says he must choose one spend eternity in. In the first room, people are standing in **** up to their necks. The guy says "no, let me see the next room." In the second room, people are standing with **** up to their noses. Guy says no again. Finally, Satan opens the door to the third room. People are standing with **** up to their knees, drinking coffee and eating danish pastries. The guy says, "I pick this room." Satan says okay and starts to leave, and the guy wades in and starts pouring some coffee. On the way out Satan yells, "O.K., coffee break's over. Everyone back on your heads!"

I wanted to share this with you, I hope it will be of use to you.

"What if something happens, God?" I often hear myself say.

"What if an unexpected storm comes and takes all I have away?"

What if I lose my job, my money, my dreams and more?

What if those I love somehow let me down?

What if life leaves me scared, shattered, lonely, and bound?

My " What if" list is endless, as I worry and fret over the unknown,
Then I turn to God and find He has a "What if" list of his own.

"What if you start your day", by giving Me your cares?

What if you have faith without a doubt that I will be there?

What if you let Me handle your health, your job, and all your dreams?

What if you let Me show you what love truly means?

What if you consider that I'm the calmer of all storms and your fears I can relieve?

What if today you trust Me at My word and simply choose to believe?"

I want to start making candles, just as a hobby. But the thing is I know nothing about it. So I have a few questions:

-What are all the supplies that I'll need?
-Are any supplies better than others?
-Can I get everything I need at AC Moore?
-Can crayons be used for coloring?
-What can be used for coloring and scenting?
-What are different types of candles that can be made (different techniques, etc)
-Anything else I need to know?

Thanks so much to anyone who answers..I have no clue what I'm doing here! =D

Im a 24 year old balding single guy and i am hairy everywhere except my head(where i want hair)! My ex and only girlfriend for 18 months said she liked it but she left me for a pretty boy type! I have hairy arms, chest, stomach, bum, legs, basically all over. I have had my back waxed before but it really itches and grows back after 2 weeks! Would it bother you if your man was hairy? Does it put you off a guy? All guys in the papers and films dont even have chest hair!
