The Question Club

what is your favorite flavor pudding?
do you have a favorite brand or mix?

For the ladies (cue the Beyonce): on your pants/jackets, if there's a flap covering your zipper, is it open to the left or to the right? (i.e. which hand would you use to do the zipper).

For the dudes: have you ever put on a pair of pants or a jacket where you had to use your left hand for the zipper? Did it really throw you or did you handle it with equanimity?

I own a handful of chick pants. This pair I have on isn't, but apparently I thought it was.

Among the following cities, where would you rather live and why?

a. San Francisco
b. Miami
c. Minneapolis

If you live in one of the aforementioned cities, what do you like/dislike about living there?

Do you watch NBC's The Office?
If so, who is your favorite character?
Do you have a favorite episode?
How about a favorite line?

I just watched all four seasons in a week. So..It's pretty much all I can think about.

Does it bother you when you see a couple where the guy's hair is longer than his girlfriend's?
For guys, or girls, would it bother you if you had longer hair than your girlfriend?

wasn't there a post asking if you'd rebreak your legs every few weeks to gain an inch or three? WHERE DID IT GO?

i am blind. carry on. nothing to see here.


eta: now that it actually IS gone, why did she delete?

how much time do you spend on TQC on average?

does anyone even use the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button on the Google homepage?

what's the point of the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button?!? does it even serve a purpose?

[edit:] if yes, what is the purpose?

How would you react if you were on a first date, and your date brought you here?

Your thoughts on self-mutilation?

If cupcake were used as a verb, what do you think it would mean?

Example: "If you want a girl to cupcake with, choose her."

i have a thermacare heat wrap that i'd love to use on my back when i sleep. i sleep on my stomach so the "no extra pressure" issue is covered, but i was wondering what on earth happens after the first 8 hours? does your skin explode?

should i just set a timer on my phone for 8 hours so i won't die?
if i do though, i won't get to sleep as much as i'd like to. :(

Where is the worst place to get acne?

I have a zit on my upper lip and it's driving me crazy.

So I have a wart on my foot. I've tried all kinds of over the counter wart removers, and nothing's worked, so I decided to see a doctor.

Is this something I'd HAVE to see a dermatologist  for, or do you reckon a general practitioner could take care of it? It seems pretty simple...

Once you find a friend for a certain niche (biffer, shopping buddy, movie buddy, bitch-about-boys friend, etc.), do you make sure to keep them in that spot in your life, even if your situation changes (they move away, work schedules change to conflict, etc.), or do you end up filling the gap with somebody else pretty easily?

Would you stop talking to a friend because you find out they have different views on life / politics / religion than you?

If they did something really stupid, like slept with your recent ex, would you forgive them? Immediately? After a week or a month? Or would you hold a grudge forever against them being a friend-tard?

---
ETA: Say you have a SO. If you don't have a profile on a dating site, would you ever consider creating one for you and your (hypothetical) SO as swingers or three-some -- or just socially?

If you do, how far have you gone with someone on it? Which site?

What do you think about people lining their eyes with white eyeliner ( Collapse )? Do you find it attractive and appealing? From what I gather it's supposed to make the eyes look bigger but, IMO, it just looks wrong.

What make-up practices do you find strange and unsettling (or just plain unattractive)? Optionally, pics would be nice because I am at work and it is super boring. :P


I'm not wild about it when people match their eye shadow to their eyes, either, but I know that approximately 70 billion blue eyed chicks with frosty blue eyeshadow disagree violently.

TQC
My friend just woke me up asking me if I would sell him Xanax (??). I had a really bad day yesterday, sleep was my last ditch effort to cheer up, and now I'm wide awake with a headache at 3 in the fucking morning.

Should I bake cookies or go buy cigarettes, make coffee, and sit in my hot tub for four hours?
Or should I do both?
Or should I just fuck it all and watch a movie (even though it will never put me to sleep?)

What was the last thing to really frost your ass?

When was the last time someone stuck up for you, or sided with you on something?
What was the situation?

My mom always blames me for everything going wrong in my life, and today she actually said that something wasn't my fault. I have this incredible sense of relief! hah

Do you have problems spelling certain words, no matter how many times you've seen them spelled or have spelled them yourselves? If so, what word is most common for you to misspell in this manner?

Yes. Opportunity.

1. Were you ever in a school play? If so, which?

2. In second grade I had a horrible teacher who would tell kids how stupid and worthless they were. I stumbled upon her Facebook, should I send her a mean message or let it go?

3. Which discontinued product do you wish would be brought back (if any)?

4. If new fashions are sometimes inspired by old fashions (or if old fashions are revived), how long until MC Hammer pants are in style again?

5. Which fashions do you hope come back into style?

ETA: ( Collapse )

(if you like Oreos) how do you eat them?

I drop mine individually in a glass of milk, let them get a little soggy, then scoop them out with a spoon.

How do ginger people make you feel?

Beyonce or Britney?

Taco Bell or Jack in the Box?

Also, welcome me to your community because I'm new and filled with a lot of rage. Also, I found this community through ontd_anas, so I hope you all provide me with as many lolz as the ontd crazies.

female genital cutting: Y or N?

I receive weekly child support checks from my daughter's father, who gets paid weekly for some strange reason, and his wages are garnished so it comes straight to me before he even sees it.

But I haven't gotten a check in three weeks which has never happened before.

Would I receive some kind of notice if he were to have like lost his job by any chance and is unable to make payments?

I'm hesitant to outright ask him because he might spit venom if my only motive for asking about his well being is cause I want his money. I did ask the general "how is everything going?" hoping he might spill work details if there is any news to share, but I really just want to know what's going on with the money. lol.

Anyway... so does anybody know if I would receive any type of notification?

How ironic, there actually is a cat sitting on the sidewalk next to my apartment meowing obnoxiously at 6 in the morning. It has to be a stray bc my complex does not allow animals, except turtles.

How do you feel about 6 am/early mornin' bootycalls?

Nuvaring or The Pill?


Please share your experiences. I keep reading horror stories on the Internet. No bueno.

O shit! It's almost 7 a.m. and I forgot to go to bed! Should I finish watching Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium? Does it get better? Or should I force myself to slumber?

Do you have any solutions for getting tangles out of hair WITHOUT conditioner? I don't have any and the situation is dire. I tried oil but it's not slippery enough. I can't just de-tangle because it's so brittle it would break. Would an egg work?


HALP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE


THANKS 4 NOTHING U GUYS
I HATE YOU ALL

Will you show me what you consider to be a perfect human face?

If you had $500 to spent at a book store,  what section(s) would you buy from?

What is your favorite time period in history?

What is your beverage of choice while reading?

Is sending bitchy texts a good or bad idea?

Who do you want to strangle this morning?
Who do you want to hug this morning?

So, my husband and I discovered that our POS condo didn't have any water coming out of any faucets at around 2am last night. This morning when I left for work at 8:30 we still didn't have water. I looked outside and there were no signs that they had to shut the water off for repair (like I said, it's a POS and they do this to us a lot, but I didn't think at 2am on a Sunday, but who knows). So I called the management line, it's was closed. However, there was an option to call another number if it's am emergency that *DOES NOT* need police, ambulance or fire assistance. I called that number and left a message 90 minutes ago.

Is this an "emergency"? Honestly, what else would they call an emergency if you don't count the kind you'd call 911 for? We own this place, so if the heat was dead then that'd be our own problem and not management. So I figured no water and the possibility of pipes breaking because of this an "emergency", am I wrong? I'm also worried that they'll be closed tomorrow because of the holiday.

Haha, I feel so stupid because I work in the operating room and I know what real emergencies are so this feels so stupid in comparison.


*EDIT* We do not pay the water bill. It is covered in our association fee.

How do you keep track of the things you gotta do each day?
What do you have to do today?

I have to buy a coat rack.
Pay my bills.
Call my friend to watch a movie.
Get drunk.
Watch the NFL playoffs.
Buy new router.

TQC,
i woke up this morning to discover that bubblegum and my right eyebrow do not go well together. i now have one wonky eyebrow, and one nicer one.

what strange things have you woken up to?

1)Do you like boiled edamame?
2)Who would you like to see in the Superbowl?

Is anyone else at work right now? If so, are your customers also being Grade-A bitches today?

Earlier, some guy called and was all pissy because some title he thought was a book is actually a magazine and then this other lady just called and got all butthurt because after 5+ minutes on the phone with her, I got the name of her library mixed up with another that starts with the same letter.

1)what would you do about the problem of the zucchini?

2)does your food bank accept donations of garden produce?

3)do you watch tv series in marathons or episode by episode?

is there a law where you live that doesn't allow alcohol sales in stores after a certain time of night?



here you can't buy alcohol of any kind after 9. it's really silly, especially because it wasn't put in place to curb alcohol abuse or drunk driving like i originally thought. i'm pretty sure it's because the tavern league got the law passed so that you have to go to the bars. whaaaaaat.

1. What is so amazing about Sonic? I don't get it.



2. What's your favorite kind of soup/stew/etc?



3. What was the last completely new thing you tried?

Bonus question: Could someone shrink this into icon sized for me?

When's the last time you took a sick day?
Do you want to take one soon? I'll totally cough on you for a pre-arranged fee.

what are your pets' personalities like?

( Collapse )

Would you pose nude in a sexually suggestive manner (for sake of argument, the photo is pornographic in nature) for money?

Would you pose nude "artistically" (for sake of argument, let's just say the intention of the photo is nonsexual, like b&w art or something) for money?

Have you posed nude for money?

Is there "Happy Hour" where you live?

So, were you guys scared shitless having to move out on your own? How did you get over that?

I'm now working full time and going to school full time, so I'm finally at a point where I can afford to move out, and I'm excited, but still nervous as all get out. All these what ifs are scaring me beyond belief, but I know it's more than time, and since I can feasibly afford it and still manage to pay my bills, pay for school, and all that lark.


What are things that I should plan to budget for, aside from rent, gas, groceries, laundromat, and school?

If someone handed college freshman you $4,000, and all your schooling was paid for, what would you do with it?

if you are driving across the border from one country where you drive on the right side of the road to a country where you drive on the left side of the road, how do they get the cars to the other side of the road?

Can ideas save us?

Would adopting an adult/older dog be a reasonable idea for someone who has never owned a dog before? Have you (or someone you know) had any experience with adopting an older dog?

Do you tuck your pants into your boots?

Does it depend on the boots? Does it depend on the pants? Does it depend on how snowy/rainy it is?

Personally, if there is a lot of snow on the ground I will tuck my pants in until I get inside. Then I untuck them.

Approximately 6 or 7 years ago, I was send instructions for typing in the driving directions in Mapquest.

They were to go from one place in the middle of nowhere in the UK about 10 miles to another middle of nowhere town.

What made it interesting is that instead of going in a straight line, Mapquest gave instructions that included crossing the Channel into France, up into Sweden, down through Germany and Italy over the Mediterranean through Africa, across the Mediterranean again, up through Spain up the Atlantic and back into England.

Does anyone know what I need to type in as my origin and destination to get this crazy result or to a website which shows a picture of the trip/article about said bug?

Where can you buy liquor where you're from?

Where I live (Nova Scotia) you can only buy hard liquor from the government controlled liquor store, but you can get wine and beer from a few speciality shops.

What do you think of polygamy?
Do you think polygamy should remain illegal?

3)fruit flavored soda?

yes.

TQC, my boyfriend broke up with me a couple nights ago.
I'm fucking miserable.
What can I do to make myself feel better?
Whats it going to take for me to get over him?


I'm an idiot and called him today, I left him a message saying I want to talk to him and I regret it. =[

1. do you talk during movies?

2. do you hate it when people talk during movies?

3. does it make a difference if they are saying something interesting?

4. do you notice that guys tend to talk more during movies than girls, or the opposite?

i just poured myself some lemonade... and after drinking the WHOLE GLASS i get to the bottom and there is white stuff floating around.

what is it tqc?

My aunt and uncle lost everything in a house fire two nights ago. Needless to say, they are devastated. They've lived in that house for about 35 years and lost so many family mementos along with their two cats. All they have left are the clothes on their back. Luckily -- if there is a 'luckily' in this situation -- they are fairly well-off (he's a dentist) and they had insurance. That being said, they are just a mess right now.

I want to send them a care package. I'll be sending it to where he works so he'll be sure to get it. I don't have a whole lot of money, and would rather send them material items than a monetary value. I just have no idea what to extend to them. They live in Canada, and I am in the US.

1. What kinds of things would be appreciated in a care package? Would it be appropriate to buy a few shirts for each of them or necessary essentials?
2. What would not be allowed to send over the border?
3. Have you ever lost everything in a fire?

Thanks so much for your time.

Is it a bad thing to live with your parents after you graduate college? :\ If applicable, how long did you live with them after you graduated?

What are you doing tomorrow?
Hopefully kidnapping my friend and making him feel better about not getting the part he wanted. it needs to be done. hes so emo about it.

eta: football meaning NFL. not college! sorry college fans.

i'm a huge believer in signs, and everything happening for a reason.

my boss, the SM, drives me insane. i'm one of three other managers. other than her, i love my job. and she's not mean, she just drives me INSANE.

i've had 3 HORRIBLE customers in the past two weeks. my friends and family think it's a sign i should look for a new job. the shit with the customers wasn't even my fault, so i wasn't acting out on thinking about quitting or anything.

so i ask you tqc, should i look for a new job?

what do you consider a 'sign' to do something in life?

what was the rudest customer you've ever had at a job?

Should I let my eleven-year-old kid skip school Tuesday to go with me to an inauguration extravaganza at our local movie theater?

He's been following the election intensely, he's an excellent student with excellent grades and he hasn't missed any school this year. His school is pretty far away, so if he skips, it will be for the whole day.

My sister thinks he should suck it up and watch it at school. What do you folks think?

*EDIT* Thanks for your input everybody. I bought our tickets. The theater I planned to go to was sold out. So we're going to a theater nearer his school. The plan now is for us to go and have a good time at the extravaganza in the morning, then he'll go to his afternoon classes.

TQC CHAT?

What leafy green should I cook tonight? Last time is was dinosaur kale. This is for my dad's birthday dinner...I want to reward him with green poop. Among other things. AND PRESENTS, PRESENTS FOR MY FATHER.

Or other tasty things to cook for a man with hemorrhoids (and other butt problems)?

How much contact must you have had with a person before you deem it appropriate to send them a friend request on Facebook?

For example, say you were traveling abroad and met a bunch of Americans along the way. All of you hung out for a few days, but since the group was quite large, you didn't get to actually talk or personally introduce yourself to everyone. Would you still send a friend request to those you didn't say a word to but have seen around constantly for a few days?

What kind of music do your parents listen to?

Which is worse: Folding clean laundry and putting it away or doing dishes?

Should I try to write something, play a game, or watch Firefly?

Do you prefer wide-ruled or college-ruled paper?

What's your favorite kind of hat?

2) how fast on average do you drive on the highway? what is the speed limit where you live?

3) what colour is your hair? is it the same colour throughout your whole body? (example: blonde hair, brown beard)

I need to go to my wife's hometown for work next week. As you can imagine, she would like to come. I'm fine with that, but it means our son will have to miss a day of first grade. Is school so important that I should insist that both of them stay home, or should I let my wife come along so she can see her family for a weekend?

I have a box of chocolate cake mix.
Is there a way to use that to make brownies? Or should I just suck it up and make cupcakes?
Awesome.

Now the question is: Brownies or Cupcakes?

If you could have any kind of animal that's normally kept as a pet (ie, no giant sea turtles or unicorns allowed), what would you get?

Do you ever say "I love you" to your pet? If not, do you think it's weird to do so, or does it depend on the type of animal?

What was the last thing someone said to offend you or piss you off?

Has anybody been to a spa and gotten a massage before? How does it work? Do you have to get naked for the massage?

Has anybody been to Glen Ivy at the Brea Mall? How was it? What treatment did you have done?


It's my best friend's 25th birthday. Do I get her (and I because we will be going together) a spa mani/pedi or a massage? If we got the massage, we'd be in the same room together and we're both very self-conscious about our bodies. Will we ~gasp~ see each other naked or not? Is this a recipe for an uncomfortable memory or a relaxed fun time?

My boyfriend and I are entertaining the thought of going on a road trip this summer.  We live in Manitoba Canada.  I really want to go to the south.  The Carolinas, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, what have you.  We've never been anywhere near there and I think it would make for a really fun and interesting trip.  I'm sure some of you must live in the South.  I need some help!  Can you guys recommend cool things to check out, towns to see, restaurants to go to, stuff to do, anything at all?  Thanks in advance!

Will you post a picture of your areolae?

One gift for their party side.
One gift for their comfy/at home side.

If you can think of any other 'sides', feel free to post them.

WHAT DO YOU GET THIS PERSON?

Please suggest a song for me to download (I just got my first iPod in years and am starting from scratch, song wise).
 

I listen to pretty broad range stuff but am in a mood for a)shit that's sung (aka not feeling any punk or screamo) or b)some interesting hip hop I dont already know. In other words, I have no desire to be interesting. lol

What should I download, TQC? 

Edit: LOL. I meant 'white wine'.

this is probably a long shot but I am looking for a game.
Early to mid 90s. Point and click adventure games.
The only thing I remember clearly: at one time you have to go into a house and to do that you had to kill the power, which was located in an underground tunnel. THe puzzle involved the circuit breaker box and such and if you failed the test you were electrocuted.
I think it was situated in the near future, and you played a cop...

If I remember correctly: the beginning scene was in a city apartment/office, with mostly blue colors
and in order to comply with the rules: does anyone know what game it is?

a. For those who keep diaries (which should be quite prolific as this is LJ), what sort of things do you write about? Is there anything you hold back on writing about even if it is only being shared with a piece of paper/computer entry?

We have a TV that is like 10 years old.
It's kinda small and the sound quality is deteriorating.
It might be time to give it the heave-ho.

Now, in shopping for new TVs, I see that most everything is LCD/HD.
Can I purchase one of these HD TVs and still get a really good standard picture?

(We do not have HD service and I do not/will not spend 40-50 bucks a month on HD cable. (basic cable is included in our rent.))

Any info/advice you can offer is most appreciated.

So I screwed up when I put in my change of address and wrote:

My name
Address
City, blah blah

Instead of

My name
c/o the dude whose name is actually on the mailbox
Address
City, blah blah

on my change of address forms.

I finally caught onto this when two important pieces of mail failed to arrive after waiting for them for three to five weeks each.

Then I used a label maker and taped my name onto the mailbox.

So, is there any chance the mail is actually going to be re-sent and get to me or do I have to call up the people and ask them to send me these documents again? What happens to mail that is claimed to be sent to a non-valid address when there is nowhere else to send it?

I know they were sent to this address because I confirmed my address with the people sending it, it's not like they accidentally sent them to my former address.

For anyone who's ever applied for financial aid:

I'm starting college in the fall and I just started filling out FAFSA and it's asking me for my parents' 2008 income tax. Wtf? That doesn't get filed until April...

FAFSA 2009-10 has been open since January 1 and I know a lot of my classmates have filled it out, so it's not that I'm not supposed to fill it out yet. And there's a grant I can get for filling it out early, so I really don't want to wait until April.

My dad got the whole worksheet filled out by his accountant, and the accountant just left the 2008 tax box blank. The website won't let me leave it blank though. What should I do? Estimate? Fill in 0? Wait until my parents file their taxes?

Heeeeelp. :[

[EDIT]: Pretty much answered. Thanks for the help!

Basically there was this girl I work with who I was on okay terms with, not really friends or enemies, and today she was being mean to some other girl I work with, and so I told her to stop, and she got angry, and she also was standing around doing nothing for about 45 minutes before I asked her to please help the rest of us, and now she hates me. I hear her really loudly talking shit about me to her little entourage.

Should I fight her, y/y?

Do you get uncomfortable when you know someone has a problem with you? I hate knowing someone actively hates me.

tqc, how long is a transaction 'pending' when using paypal? (usually)

the only information the site gives is "The status of an order will be 'pending' until it expires, is completed, or has been voided."

i bought flight tickets two days ago using the site and it's still pending, usually things go through automatically.
