how many times will you tell someone that their booger is still there?

So I've come to the conclusion that I will tell someone three times that they either have a booger in their nose, or that they haven't gotten it. First I say, "You've got a booger creeping out of your nose. Do you want to check out a mirror?" If they decline the mirror, I give them three more, "Nope it's still there." before I just say, "Ya you got it." and walk away.

How many do you give, or do you keep saying, "no it's still there" until it's gone?

saw another booger question and I just did this today with a co-worker, so I thought I'd ask.

How did Christmas come about?

When did it start? I need a good answer because even though I know the meaning yet I don't know its origin. Be objective and spiritual to answer and to learn. Christmas is about caring and sharing not just giving and receiving. Christmas is the only holly-day which everyone celebrates. Merry Christmas and 'happy 'Birth'-day' to the Saviour of the world.

Women: Would you rather walk barefoot on a dirty city street or be carried by a stranger?

It's a nice summer night and you're walking home or wherever on a typical big city street after being on your feet at a club all night. Your high-heeled shoes are killing your feet and you can't take it anymore. You could take off your shoes, walk barefoot on the concrete and risk stepping on something sharp or icky but a guy who sees your distress offers to carry you. The catch is that you don't know the guy. I won't say he's a handsome prince but he's average or better, doesn't smell bad, doesn't seem creepy and appears to be physically capable of carrying you. Which option would you take?

Similarities between atheists and Islamicists ?

Some atheists deny God because of an agenda:a popular celebrity who is a Lesbian would deny the Ten Commandments for obvious reasons.
Islamicists (some) deny Christ because of their preference for multiple wives.What say you?

A question for super zionist Christians?

I love Israel and the Jewish people. But there is a phenomenon in the Christian community that needs addressing. It is called 'Jew worship'. I'm referring to individuals like John Hagee who says that Jesus NEVER refers to anyone other than the Jewish people as His brothers. And saying things like our salvation is linked to how well we treated Israel and the Jewish people. And saying that Jews are the apple of God's eye (implying that Gentiles are not, even Gentile believers) What gives? Where in the Bible does it say that we are supposed to worship the Jews? I thought we were supposed to love them the same as everyone else. John Hagee even led a church in repentance to the Jews for anti-semetism one time. I'm not apologizing for the holocaust. I had nothing to do with it. The Jews have my sympathy, but not my apologies. I wonder if super zionists know that the whole of Israel is laughing at them. Just something I wonder about.

Is there a type of unique headgear Christians wear?

Eg. Muslims have a white skull cap, Jews wear a skull cap about half that size. I'm looking for a Christian equivalent (of any denomination) that can be worn by a layman that doesn't indicate priestly rank.

Why do some Atheists think that people of faith don't think or don't have education, when very many of us are.

well-educated and know more about things in may instances than they do?

This a statement by "Snout":

You gave this answer a low rating: Hide
Anti-theism.

Theism exists.

An atheist can't be anti God. You have to believe something exists before you can be "anti-" it.

And yes, there is a certain militancy to it, but it's a militancy of minds and reason and intellect and evidence, rather than a militancy of guns and bombs and emotional manipulation and abuse.

That's why we're stronger than you guys (we think).

Challenge to the rude answerers in R & S.....notice when you answer?

in a negative way, how you feel afterwards..immediately you may feel adrenaline rush believing you have answered in a witty way, although notice how you feel later that day or the next morning, if you seem to lack energy. Then, notice how you feel when you answer in a positive way, will you feel energized? This can be a scientific experience.

I'd like a moist chocolate cake, I have reasonably good cooking skills but don't want anything wildly difficult. And can you please put a little feedback on what the cake tastes like when made? Thank you!

Is it bad manners to say you are going to the bathroom while in a meeting or dinner?

I don't like to say "I'm going to powder my nose".. or "Excuse me" and just leave... depends on the situation, of course. But then again... well if you take too long people gonna start to wonder and think or say things... Because, let's face it... everybody knows where you're going and what you are doin' (well... not "exactly"). Happens all the time and some people are really weird and I knwo people who just "hold it up" till i's over. What would u recommend?
