Or even 'homework face' - I think that's the imperative form ... ? [/pedantic]

[quote name='persocomblues]Thought I asked this, guess I didn?t? so, expanding on The Assassin?s thread. Does anyone [b]like[/b'] someone on these forums? If yes, feel free not to say who.[/quote]

[SIZE=1]Like? Sure. Love? Most certainly. I love my very best friend in the whole world (Both online and in person), and his username here is Brooklyn. He's not my boyfriend or anything, and I don't want him to be, I love him as my best friend.

If you mean have a crush on, or have romantic feelings for, then that would sadly be a no. I'm not very good with people I don't know too well, and I don't know many people on OB enough to really [B]like [/B]them as more than just a friend, unless it's someone I know IRL. And everyone I know IRL I don't happen to have crushes on at the moment.

My question- Pepsi or Coke?[/SIZE]

My question- Pepsi or Coke?[/SIZE][/QUOTE]Heh, yeah I guess I meant have a crush on but I didn't want to limit it solely to that so I picked the word "like" and made it bold, lol. Hrm... to answer your question, COKE! Has a much more "bitter" taste whereas I think Pepsi is more sugary, if that makes sense. How about you?

Another question- cooking your own dinner saying you had all the ingridents you need for a specific meal you had in mind ([i]excluding[/i] actual cooking skills), or going out and buying a decent meal? [SIZE=1][Since I do have cooking skills and more importantly enjoy cooking, I'd say cooking under most circumstances, but I can be lazy sometimes.][/SIZE]

[size=1][color=slategray]Thanks to Hug Monster and Sakurasuka for helping to clear my head of whether or not Sakura has any special techniques of her own.

I however have another question which goes out to the people in Japan.

Question: Where I live at (America) the movie theaters usually show 'real live'
movies. So I am wondering, in Japan do you guys have movie theaters
that shows animation?

I am just wondering. If you could answer the ? that would be great.

[QUOTE=Raya][COLOR=#F76590]Question:[/COLOR]
Do you think it's right for people to sue fastfood chains because food there makes them fat?[/QUOTE][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]I?m of two minds about that. I think the lawsuits are stupid and at the same time I?ve done a little reading and the Food administration in America is corrupt in representing what?s safe and healthy to eat. A huge amount of our food is processed to make things cheaper to produce and to make it tastier so people will want more. And fast-food companies deliberately target children when they advertise so I find the whole thing a bit disgusting. They don?t care about people?s health, but about making money.[/COLOR]
[QUOTE=Sage Kaley]But! I have a question everyone!

Do you have a weird snack or just a slightly odd snack that everyone thinks you are crazy for liking? [/QUOTE][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]Well I don?t think it?s weird but my friends do. I like to have dill pickles as a snack. Everyone I know only has them on sandwhiches but they are just so yummy to eat by themselves. ^_^[/COLOR]
[quote name='celestialcharm][COLOR=DarkOrchid']I have another question! How does the tax system work in America? I just went there today, and some clothes had tax, and others did not! Why is it like that?[/COLOR][/quote][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]I think the tax system is designed to confuse the world as well as those of us who are Americans. ^_~ I do know that many taxes are determined by the state. For example Utah taxes you on your food where in California there isn?t any tax on the food. [/COLOR]
[quote name='sakurasuka][SIZE=1']My question- Pepsi or Coke?[/SIZE][/quote][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]Neither. I prefer Dr. Pepper. ^_~[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]Now for a new question. Do you ever wonder why people stay in a relationship when the other person is physically abusive? I see people do it and I just don?t understand why they stick around. Every time I?ve had a boyfriend like that I?ve always ended the relationship.[/COLOR]

I say arrest the stupid person using the rabbit as a gimmick to sell a book. That?s just sick. And the other?s saying kill him? I mean come on! It?s obvious that they are just using the bunny to make money. You?re right, its just sheer stupidity. So I say kill the both the person selling the book and the one selling toys for saving him. Feh! Some people will do anything to make money.

All right, now for a question. Have you ever had a dream where you realized you were dreaming while you were in the middle of the dream? I had one of those the other night and boy was it weird!

[COLOR=SlateGray][SIZE=1][quote name='Leofski']My question: What's your favorite word?[/quote]
Indeed, by far. Anyone who knows me can verify this. Though, I also like expunge, spleen, verisimilitude, and muskrat.

[QUOTE=Shadow Blade]Where I live at (America) the movie theaters usually show 'real live'

Japanese movie theaters show both live-action and anime movies in tandem. It's the same as America - we show animated movies, too, remember.

There are numerous psychological reason for the unsettling trend of people becoming trapped in abusive relationships, this biggest being fear; once your boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife starts beating you or whatnot, you might not want to run for fear of what they'll do in escalation. Alternatively, some people have such a high degree of self-loathing or low self-worth that they believe they deserve the abuse. Then, you have the types who know that they "really do love eachother," it's just an "occasional incident." Then there are the masochists, like Lix mentioned. It all varies.

Don't have another question, I'm afraid. Just wanted to throw in my 2 cents. Well, 6, technically.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

That's exactly what I was thinking! I wonder if anybody actually donated money to any of the sites?

Now, my question! Are you more motivated when you leave something like a project to the last minute? [/COLOR]

Sadly, I have to say yes I'm more motivated when I leave a project to the last minute. I usually end up doing so because the pressure makes me work harder, although it's not really the smartest thing for me to do.

My question is...
On average, what do people fear more then death?[/SIZE]

On average, what do people fear more than death?[/QUOTE]
[SIZE=1]I'd have to say life. Really, what's scarier than life? So many mistakes you can make, so many people you can cross, so many things that you can do wrong...and that's just the positive! LOL...just kidding. But seriously, life has so many variables, I think that, in general, people fear it more than death. Death would only be a release.

Anyways, enough "dark, depressing" talk![/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]My favorite word would have to be "Anyways," simply because I tend to go off-topic alot, and I mean alot! Anyways...LOL! There I go again.

Anyways...My question:[/SIZE]
Who's put into a steriotypical generalization more, men or women?

[size=1][color=slategray][quote name='celestialcharm][COLOR=DarkOrchid']Now, my question! Are you more motivated when you leave something like a project to the last minute? [/COLOR][/quote]

Certainly. Actually, I find that I do my best work (mainly school work) when I am doing it at the last minute. Your adrenaline kicks in at the last minute because you know you have to get something done, and quick. I'm going to be an aweful, yet typical college student one day. Haha.

My sister would positively [i]kill[/i] you if she heard you use the word "anyways." You know, it's really not a word, it's really just "anyway," but, whatever. She hates it when people use bad grammer and such. >> She put me through hell one day just because I accidentally said, "Instead of."

Moving on....
Wow, that's actually a pretty difficult question. But I think that they are about the same, really. It all depends on the person of course, but... as a generalization, both genders are about equal. Most see men as strong, sports-loving, slobs... haha, and woman as the clean, delicate and beautiful gender. So... you know? I don't know how to explain it.

Alright, my question...
Which of the following do you think is killing off Americans quickest? Fats and starches, sugar and caffeine, or alcohol? (Merg... I have no comment on my own question... >>)[/color][/size]

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray][SIZE=1][FONT=Comic Sans MS]And to think that all this time I though this thread was deleted is some kind of a freak accident just like the last one. Although I should do some kind of dance..Yet..I wont for various reasons >.>

[quote name='sakurasuka][SIZE=1']My question- Pepsi or Coke?[/SIZE][/quote]

I have to admit that Pepsi looks a whole lot better than Coke does. Even though coke was said to have actually have cocaine in it in the past. However at the end of the day, coke takes the win.

[quote name='celestialcharm][COLOR=DarkOrchid']Now, my question! Are you more motivated when you leave something like a project to the last minute? [/COLOR][/quote]

That would be a yes for me 100% I can say that since I am actually doing a major project right now. I dont mind that I tend to put things off till the last minute anyways. I seem to be able to focus better on things when its down to the final minutes. Maby its some part of my body that fears me failing so it forces my brain to work better?

No Question from me for now. I just can't think of anything.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[/COLOR][/QUOTE][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]Yes, I?ve had several dreams like that. They really are quite weird. Its called Lucid Dreaming. I was reading a book about it the other day called ?Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming?

Here?s my next question: If physics can predict lottery numbers, why are they still working? Seems to me that they really can?t predict the numbers or someone would have already used the information to make money.

I see people do it and I just don?t understand why they stick around. Every time I?ve had a boyfriend like that I?ve always ended the relationship.[/COLOR][/QUOTE][COLOR=Indigo]One reason for people staying is that they are co-dependant. It?s a bit complex but people who are co-dependant let another person?s behavior affect them. They often become obsessed with controlling or attempting to control the other person?s destructive behavior. I won?t try to fully explain it since it?s a bit complex, but if you really want to know more there?s a good book called ?Codependant no More? that goes into depth on the subject.[/COLOR][QUOTE=Aaryanna][COLOR=DarkOrange']I say arrest the stupid person using the rabbit as a gimmick to sell a book.

I thought it was a hoax at first so I was appalled to find that there actually is a book being sold on Amazon. A little more research turned up the fact that the date for when the so-called rabbit will be eaten has constantly changed. Obviously the owner of the rabbit has no intention of eating the very thing that is making them so much money. [/COLOR][QUOTE=Lix][size=1][color=slategray]Alright, my question...

I remember reading an article that health problems caused by being overweight are on the rise and will soon be the number one killer among Americans. It?s certainly a chore to shop and find healthier foods in the stores these days, so many things are processed and very unhealthy.

Here?s my next question. Do you believe aliens have visited the Earth? I know this is an old and worn out question, but I often wonder if all the hype among people who are convinced that we have been visited is just that, hype. I have yet to read or see anything that would convince me that aliens have ever visited here.[/COLOR]

[size=1]I don't think that aliens have visited Earth. We're some back-woods, under developed, primitive, savage planet. The only reason I'd see to come here, from an alien's perspective, would be to get a few slaves, which I'm sure is against their hyper-advanced code of morals. :p

Next question: Should we [the world in general] invest time and effort to explore space, or should we focus on events back home? Is there anything to be gained in space?[/size]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][quote name='Retribution][size=1]Next question: Should we [the world in general'] invest time and effort to explore space, or should we focus on events back home? Is there anything to be gained in space?[/size][/quote]
Well, that may be why we are investing time and effort to explore space; To find out [B]if[/B] there is anything to be gained in the vast beyond. Lol.

Well, I don't feel like space exploration really involves "us" as the general public. When you ask if we should focus on events back home, I don't see where space exploration takes our focus of the events, and problems on earth. If you're asking if NASA should quit blasting monkeys into space and begin worrying about our planets problems-- Then no; I don't believe it should. I may not know much concerning this topic but, I don't see where space exploration is our main focus. I find it no different than deep sea exploration in the matter of "is there anything to be gained". There are many oraganizations, industries, governmental, etc etc, That main concerns are the events here on earth. Space exploration is a small issue in the long run.

Now getting back to the question "Is there anything to be gained in space?", There is always a possibility, and that's what we're trying to answer-- What's out there? There literally is a universe to discover, and with it many things could be gained, or it may be a complete waste. Who knows? I'm sure there are many factors that could be used to argue that there is much to be gained from all forms of research. I'm sure there were people in history who may of asked "Is there anything to be gained from a microscope, and cell research?" That may be a poor example, but it gets the point across.

[B]EDIT:[/B] Oh, and no question.[/FONT]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]I have two more questions!

If you could travel in time, and could only choose to either go into the past, or into the future, what would you choose?

I remember I fell up the stairs and sprained my knee when I was younger. Most people say that's impossible, even though it's true! So, do you think falling up stairs is possible?[/COLOR]

I'll answer both! ^^

If I could travel time, I'd like to go into the future, beyond my years, see what I'd miss. The future is so interesting to me, I'd love to know what happens to humanity, what comes up next in technology...hell, it'd be cool just to eat in a food court of the future or see a movie of the future (random MST3K reference, sorry) Really, I just want to see what the future holds. Although, being a history nut, the past would be so much fun...eee, it's actually hard to chose.

And I've fallen up stairs plenty of times. It's just tripping while walking up so that you fall forward. I'm clumsy, I can say easily that I've fallen up stairs a lot.

Question!

Since I was thinking about the future, is there any "futuristic" invention that you'd really like to see happen someday?

Mine is needle-less shots, which I've heard are actually in the works. *has a fear of needles*

The "What If? Machine" from Futurama. How cool would [i]that[/i] be? You could have an answer to every stupid question you could ever think of! I'd probably wear the poor thing out within a couple of days. lol

Has anyone ever had a dream but not really noticed it until later in the day, when you're just thinking about some random thing and you suddenly realize that all of the crazy events that happened to you earlier in the day were all just a dream?

(Yes, this has happened to me more than a few times.)

Why do people cheat on each other? Answer THAT, and I shall worship you for eternity.
