I was strainting my eyes, and all of a sudden, my right eye became lazy! it was like a glass eye, which I kept having to move with my fingers so i wouldnt look cross eyed. It was really scary. I don’t remember the middle bit, but in the end, my sister had some revenge spray, and it had settings, and she put the freeze setting on and she was going to use it on me, and we where sstruggling for it, and we ended up freezing each other, and there was some other people with us, they became frozen too.

I'm 18 and in my last year of highschool and I have had no sexual experiences in anyway yet, I've been told im good looking but yet I get no action. I was just wondering if thats weird, my school only has a little over 100 people so it's not like theres many opportunities, I just feel like i should have atleast made out with someone by now.

Like I said earlier I'm actually pretty good looking (so I'm told) but yet I end up being some cute guys that girls like, not a guy girls want to kiss ( i dont think atleast). Also does anyone have advice on how to be more sexual towards girls, without sounding creepy or like I just want to sleep with them. I think thats my problem I keep thinking that if I act like im interested in a someone they will think im creepy or something.

Well I'm going to make this breif because its rather depressing to talk about.


thanks bye

I am writing a paper on why I am for Assisted Suicide. However, I need to state why some people will be AGAINST it. I did that, and now i have to write a paragraph saying how this is wrong. Can you help?


This is the Paragraph for why people would be for it:

"However, there are many difficulties with the issue as well. In many cases, people with illnesses and disabilities would be poorly informed about their conditions and their future prospects. Therefore, the decision to engage in assisted suicide could not be made rationally. Currently, many patients with serious illnesses are poorly informed about their conditions and prognoses. Without this information, they cannot be expected to make informed decisions about suicide. Often, people are given unclear or misleading information about their prognosis or how long they are expected to live because health care providers simply do not know or are wrong in their expectations."

my mom thinks i have mental problems because im tired of living such a boring life tht has no miracles or nature in it. is it bad to daydream about a place where you can be free and be what u want to be. (as in a fantasy world) to see miracles tht many people saw when they lived during christ. is it bad to wonder and to get off of this planet and into your own world once in awhile when u want to be alone and do things u know u wont be able to do? please give me a scientific response or something. in general im pretty much asking is it bad to dream believe and wonder in unatural and miraculous things?

Alright, first of all, I'm looking for a job that has to do with studying people. Not they're insides or anything, just they're mental reactions to certain events you know? Don't want to be a psychologist or a school counsoler. Anything in between?

--and I'm not looking for any life stories here, just some job titles and job descriptions.

I have a friend that likes to mock many things he doesnt like when i bring the subject up. Such as

I watch a TV show he doesnt like he says. "That show is retarted"
or
Little cesars has a special today. he says "Their pizza tastes like crap"
You get what i mean by now
I think the word hipocrite sounds like him but im sure theres a better word?

I am doing a homework assignment where the questions are based on the movie Stand and Deliver.

The question that I must answer deals with a quote from the movie where the vice princapal stated that depending on your econmic status depends on your intellegence. I have to prove that if you are poor doesnt mean that you are stupid. And name two people in history who are good examples to make valid argument

Below is what I have so far

I completely disagree with the statement that was made by the female vice principal during the faculty meeting. Basically, she was implying that a student’s intelligence is based on the economic status of the community they live in. Breaking it down to even more into simpler terms, she was saying if you are poor then you are considered stupid. This statement is incorrect because there are many people in the world today who have been raised in poverty but still managed to have a good head on their shoulders.

nobody likes me and they don't want to be my friend? Maybe because it's been so long since i've been confident and i haven't been for so long? I'm just getting so scared that nobody will like me and that'll make my depression worse. Why am i feeling this way?

I'm a guy and I'll admit some of it is informative and entertaining.

However,

One story includes an older woman steps over a mirror, and sees her vagina for the first time. She then goes on a tirade against patriarchy as the reason she had never viewed her own vagina before.

I'm sorry, but how the hell are men to blame for the fact that this woman after 70 years didn't have the sense to look at herself if that's what she wanted to do?

I found that particular story very rotten, hateful propaganda.

Do we tend to make more mistakes like

in typing email or other rapid, casual keyboarding than
in handwriting or thoughtful typing?

Any others? Any thoughts?

I mean, from not drinking and driving to waging war, why is it that humans never, ever learn until it's too late? Are humans naturally averse to precaution? Why does something bad have to happen first before we learn?

what should I do?

do I owe anybody anything? Like apologies? Maybe something.

I don't even know what they did or didn't do. I want to help heal it if I can. In any way I can. I'm pretty sure I'm at least 1/4 Jewish too so maybe that affects it.

It’s Time… for new voices, new ideas, new results. It’s time for a culture that looks and feels and acts differently—fluid, flexible, expansive and engaged, vital and infinitely various. It’s time for a national conversation that is richly diverse and genuinely representative. It’s time for a nation that responds to challenges by drawing on the strength and wisdom of all its people, women and men.
