What are you waiting for?

I'm waiting for it to turn 1:00 A.M. so I can call my ex and wish him a "Happy Birthday!!!", so I can go to sleep >:|

guys, why did sophiedoph delete her post about how she had a date with someone even though she was on a break with someone else? i didn't even notice and i ALWAYS notice. were we super mean or something?

eta: is this girl still alive?

Dear TQC:

Say you were given a small grant to provide sound equipment for a small multiuse stage. The needs would mostly be a PA of some sort, a few mics and mic stands, speakers (and monitor?), and all the assorted cords, stands and such that go with.

The stage would primarily be used for open mics and a few low-key musical acts, generally involving accoustic instruments, or maybe a few electric. There would not really be a need for more than six channels on the PA. In a perfect world, the PA would also work as some kind of mixer and would also allow for a clean line-in to a computer so that someone could use something like Audacity to record the events. (Does such a thing exist?)

This would also be in the realm of affordable/economy equipment, as the stuff that is currently in residence at said stage was donated, and the organization is a non-profit with a limited operating budget.

All that said, what kind of equipment would you provide for this space?

Thanks!

My dad had a really shitty day, and I'm trying to write him a nice little note. So far I have that he's the man, and he can beat up everyone else's dad. What else should I add?

Thoughts? Comments?

I'm on an internet dating site and click someone with an interesting bio without paying attention to the picture. I realize it is the friend of my friends brother. He can see that I saw his profile. 

Now people will know I am lonely and desperate looking for love on the internet.

Awkward? y/n?

A new renter moved in to a duplex across the alley from me. Her dog has been waking me up between 4:30 and 6:30 for the last few weeks. My alarm is set for 7:45 and I have not been at all pleased at waking up as early as I have been. This morning I finally went out and confirmed it's the little Schnauzer jerk. Should I go knock on the door and ask that if the dog needs to go out that early in the morning, to please let it out and back in right away? Should I leave a note as to not embarrass her? Do you have any suggestions for such a communication?

what's your cure for the common cold?

THE PAST 6 MONTHS HAVE BEEN THE MOST FERTILE BABYMAKING TIMES I CAN REMEMBER SINCE FOREVER

Holy crap!

TQC, I was getting ready to ask you what time you thought the satellite installer was going to show up (we're scheduled for a 12:00 to 5:00 time slot and it is currently 11:59) and he just pulled into the drive way!

Sweet.

So...I guess I need a new question...

For the tv watchers of TQC....

Satellite or cable?

If you have satellite, who is your provider?
If you have cable, who is your provider?

We did have Mediacom cable, but I'm sick of their crappy customer service and rising prices. So now we've switched to Dish Network....yay for DVRs!

Do you know someone who's clingy? Who? How are they clingy?

Why is it that you shouldn't eat meat on Good Friday?

Have you ever accidentally sent an email to the wrong person? Did you experience any funny or horrible consequences from doing so?

My husband and I both have friends named "Kate". I wrote an email to my friend, but didn't pay attention to the name that popped up in my address book, and accidentally sent the email to his friend. She was nice about it, and pointed out my mistake, and my husband and I had a good laugh. I feel slightly embarrassed.

What do you do:

for a living?

for fun?

to pass the time??

What was (or is) your FAVORITE pop boy band?

Would The Straight Dope's answer about the risks of anal sex cause you to rethink your decision to be havin' it?

My husband and I are looking to buy a condo in the next few months.

I'd like to send out 'We've moved' cards, mostly to let people know to update our address in their address books.

I don't want to come across as douchy or 'buy-me-a-gift'.

Is it possible to do it and not be douchy looking?

Would you think people wanted you to send a gift if you got a note like that in the mail?

Growing up one of the first scifi, though really more sci/fantasy, series I ever read was The Dragonriders of Pern by Anne McCafferey. I couldn't get enough of them...even if I only really could find about 3 or 4 books at the time.

Was just wondering, have any of you read these books and what do you think of them?

i think im gonna go watch tv and take a nap.
wanna come? what should we watch?

you seem distracted from TQC. what are you doing?!?

Where can I get permanent green hair dye?

I'm going to be traveling this summer, so of course I'll be needing some reading materials. So on that note...

If you were traveling in Austria, France, Italy and/or Spain, what would you bring along to read?

To narrow it down, I don't want anything too lengthy (my backpack will be heavy enough without massive tomes, however interesting) and I'd also like something that is in some way related to the areas in which I'll be traveling (be it the author, the setting, etc etc).

Thanks :)

At what point does attraction to a celebrity become creepy?

I'm somewhat freaking out at the moment because I have a moderate attraction to a certain somewhat-famous musician who shall not be named. Like, I've met her once before (I was an extra in a video of hers), and now I'm somwhat attracted to her and afraid of turning into a stalker.

Well, she's too old for me anyway. Haha.

My friend (who lives out of state) sent me a book I've been wanting but didn't want to spend the money on, and he thought he got the right one, but he didn't. He didn't send the receipt with it because he thought he got the right one. I checked the website, but it says I need the receipt.

How strict are they on their return policy? Do you think they'll let me return it and get the book I wanted or am I SOL?

Edit! I found it. He hid it in the box of random stuff he gave me. Thanks for all your help thought!

2. What is a polite way of telling her I don't want her to interrupt me while I'm working just to show me a new lolcat? I tell her I don't care for them, but she still insists on doing this twice a day.

3. What is a polite way of telling her that bringing her cat to informal gatherings with coworkers doesn't seem right?

4. What is the next performance you will be attending?

What's the last movie you saw that was completely different from the book version? 


**Edit** I know that pretty much all books are different than their movie adaptations, but I'm looking for the last one you saw.

I'm trying to think of another way of saying "that is" as used in this sentence...

"What is there to do in this town...other than drinking, that is?"

Odd question, I know...

Anyone know how to rip DVDs so they can go onto an MP4, etc. player?

It says all my DVDs are copy protected, but they are my DVDs and they are for my personal use.  I can't carry a god damned TV and VCR onto a bus.

I have a Zen X-Fi if that helps.  And can you explain it to me as if I were your 70 year old grandma who had only gone so far as figuring out e-mail?

1. For those of us on the Verizon network, is there a way to block incoming text messages from a specific phone number?

2.I have an anxiety disorder so I started seeing this doctor who only prescribes herbal remedies and supplements after seeing several therapists to no avail. Before she made any recommendations she ran tests via my blood, and saliva to find out what my brain chemistry is missing and it turned out that I was extremely low on serotonin, gaba, and norepinephrine. She showed me a chart that explains all of the side-effects someone with abnormally low amounts of these things will have and one that stuck out to me was sugar and salt cravings. I've been on supplements for about three months now that are supposed to correct this imbalance but I still can't seem to kick the sugar and salt cravings and its driving me nuts. Is there some other remedy I could try?

Have you ever gone on a break in your relationship with a SO?
Did you get back together with them after the break?
If so, did it help your relationship?


Today my SO and I went on a break. Its the first time I've ever been in a break in a relationship and honestly, I don't see us getting back together.

i'm graduating in may and i got my graduation announcements today... they came with an inner envelope and an outer envelope. WHY THE FUCK DO I NEED TWO ENVELOPES?

Okay, seriously? Are these real, or just edited with photoshop? Either way, I'm scared...

What is the difference between love, hero-worship, and obsession?

This December, my father gave me a piece of jewelry that had belonged to my late grandmother.

It is a long, thick gold necklace with a large (1.5inch) diameter round locket style container on the end. Its very heavy. I can open the locket, and inside of it is a coin, held in place by beings lipped in to a pocket pressed tightly by a spring. As ive been told, the coin is a currency (pure gold?) that women used to carry around (for emergencies? for show?).

Does anyone know the formal name for this piece of jewelry? My dad told me but i forgot...Ive googled with no luck :(

[Edit] Thanks! It was a Sovereign case!
