Greetings!
Greeting cards, just so say "hello", or "get well soon", etc.?
Birthday cards?
Thank you cards?
Digital style, or snail mail?
If digital, what is your favorite site for finding/sending e-cards?
Me - I send my friends/family snail mail birthday cards (most people), winter holiday cards (ambigious religion - everyone in address book), valentine's day cards (close friends/family), thank you cards (for any and all gifts and/or attendences at a function I had). Also, if a friend is getting married and I can't go to the wedding I send a card. I send my dad e-cards, but only because he lives in Mexico and by the time I remember to send a card, it's too late to send it snail mail to Mexico from NYC.

1991
"In 1991, the big war had begun/(speaking people?) (lived their lives?) in the heat of a manmade sun/Although the people tried/to keep the world alive/(the whole world was warring from the rioting that was done?)
Chorus: Nineteen ninety one...Nineteen ninety one...Nineteen hundred and ninety one...
(Something, skipped around?) They say the minions that survived, and the entire population left with the children from the sky! Now was the time, their journey had begun, they left the earth forever, for the kingdom of the sun!
Chorus: For the kingdom of the sun...Now their journey has begun...
(Musical interlude involving weird sound effects, an organ, and guitar)
All the fathers love their daughters/All the world your time has come/They left the planet earth forever/for the kingdoms of the sun..."

If you're not, do you feel like you should be?
I don't engage in any self-destructive behaviors, but I always feel highly compelled to. It's a near-constant fight, and sometimes I feel like I'm cheating fate (even though I don't believe in it) by not being a completely screwed up person, and like it's only a matter of time before I lose everything. Is that weird?

I want to try and give a coworker my morning shift tomorrow. There's no reason why other than not wanting to get up early, but I feel like I should have a better reason than that.
What should I tell my coworker so there is incentive for her to take my shift?

Tea drinkers
I always put the tea bag in first and I have read that that's the way you're "supposed" to do it. I know a lot of people who always put the water in first, which makes no sense to me, because then the teabag floats and it's difficult to infuse it. Why oh why is it so appealing to have a floating, non-infusing tea bag?

first off, i'm planning on asking for a new hair straightener and blow dryer for my birthday, but i haven't bought either in so long that i don't know what's good.
i straighten my hair pretty regularly, so i'm looking for something that isn't going to fry my hair too bad. and it would be nice if it made my hair look shiny too!
as for the blow dryer, i really have no specifications other than not too expensive.
so, any suggestions for nice, moderately priced hair straighteners and blow dryers?
also, this morning my right ear bud went out so i'm on the market for new ones. my ears are pretty small so i was wondering if anyone knew of some cheap (or just not expensive) earbuds that would fit small ears?
thanks guys. :]

My psychiatrist gave me one, and I'm afraid they won't take it for whatever reason. It's also supposed to be affixed to the back of my prescription for it, but it's not. Should I do that myself? It seems to just be a sticker I can stick to the back of it.

You're having your 2-story dream house built. Everything you want in the house is already guaranteed. Now you have to pick between one of these to be put in your house. There's no other option and you HAVE to have one in order to complete the house. Which one do you pick:
1. A bowling alley on the 2nd floor with no special noise reducing stuff in the room
2. The stairs are built so that (magically) you can only go up them. In order to get downstairs, you have to go down a firehouse pole.

Also, I'm wondering, if any of you had flu-like symptoms(even mild-moderate), would you go to the doctor and get tested so that if it turned out you had h1n1 your workplace/school could be shutdown for sanitization or would you just stay home, maybe stop by the store and pick up some soup and ginger ale and cough syrup?

What is your most played song, if you know that? Mine is "I Can't Decide" by Scissor Sisters.
I like to make icons that parody internet memes, like the O Rly bird. I made an O'Leary cow with fire behind it, and an O Roly with the Roly Poly bugs. However, now I am in the mood to just do random icons of random things like crayons or trees or animals. I leave the suggestions up to you - what should I icon? Serious and non-serious answers alike greatly appreciated.

I keep mine on my keychain, my boyfriend keeps his in his car, and our roommate keeps his attached to his suit jacket (except when he's washing it, obviously).
Also, how strict is your company about working off the clock?
I just started a new job, and if I help out a customer when I'm not clocked in, even if it's as simple as telling them where a department is, I have to go back and fill out a time adjustment form. Even if it takes less than a minute (this has been specified). Failure to do so can get me fired. That seems just a bit extreme to me. O.o

trying to find my way back home
thank you so much...
EDIT if i book a round trip flight from san diego to geneva roundtrip.... (but i only need to take the flight from geneva to san diego) because its cheaper...will it matter if i dont show up at the san diego to geneva flight but still show up for the return flight only (roundtrips are cheaper than one way)....
kind of cheating a little but it saves me 500 dollars?

If you don't have an iPhone, why not?
Do you think it's fair that these students can't graduate with their classmates because they went to Mexico and the rest of the students are freaking out and don't want to be around them at graduation time? (they have to have their own separate graduation)

This is a total lie, since I walked out one day after being verbally threatened by another employee and then yelled at by the manager to just keep my mouth shut and do my job. I called the manager (the store manager) the next day to talk to him about it and the manager (who had yelled at me) told him that I had thrown my apron at a customer and walked out, so I was out of the job.
TQC... how much bullshit is this, really?
Would it be bad if I were to call this place and talk to the store manager and ask him 'wtf? did you seriously lie and say that I never contacted you?'

edit: i'm sorry, i know i could probably get a good explanation searching it on google.. and i have, but i'm not really getting the answer i'm looking for from it. my dad seems to be playing it a lot lately, and i'm just trying to figure out what's so great about it that it would make him want to be on it instead of, you know, spending time with his fifteen year old daughter.
Bummer.
Did you/do you have a fake ID? I don't drink but my friends are all older and go out to bars and I am a baby and have to stay home and watch cartoons. Adult Swim is still half decent. Anyway, I'd feel lame if I got a fake ID but I still kinda want one.
When was the last time a poor person pulled a shenan on you? These guys outside CVS asked for money (no cash) and then food so I got them stuff and they were gone when I got out! What the shit!?
Edit: shenan = shenanigan. You see, I am just a young one (darling we're the young ones...) and say words like totes and shenans.
