PumpkinThePIE Really? Where did you hear this? I've been drinking tap water for a while (boiled though) but haven't felt any difference at all. By government which government are you specifically referring to? If this is the case I'm shocked that no one has caught onto it....

Prepaid Cell Phone

MandaLee @MandaLee (3764) • United States 3 Mar 12

I am getting a prepaid cell phone. What has your experience been with prepaid cell phones? Would you recommend them? Why or why not?

PumpkinThePIE I don't really like prepaids. You get more for your money if you get a monthly plan. Unless you're planning on making 1 or 2 calls a day, and minimal texts then you will definitely pay more if you go with prepaid. I knew someone with a prepaid that got charged...

PumpkinThePIE They were probably scams. Just by looking at their names they seem like pretty generic, fake sites. They may pay out a little in the beginning to make people think they are legit, but then soon after shut down and disappear without a trace. Be careful when...

PumpkinThePIE I had this happen to me too. But in my case I had like a dollar on my account when it got wiped. When I quit I figured I would never come back. That was a while ago and I wasn't very interested in MyLot. But then all of a sudden I came back for some reason,...

Good day Fellow Mylotters, I was away today for almost the whole day. Good thing, I have brought my umbrella with me, as the weather was too hot and sunny. As I feel the terrible heat penetrating into the pores of my skin....

PumpkinThePIE I will definitely say that the weather is different from the years before. It used to snow at this time of year and the streets would be covered in ice where I live. But now it's pretty much spring like. Then again, I heard it was going to be freezing...

PumpkinThePIE You need to be more specific.. like on what page is it crashing on? Or what programs are you running? It might have something to do with your plugin cause that sometimes crashes my Firefox. I dunno, try patching it or reinstalling the whole thing if it really...

PumpkinThePIE You are supposed to put your left index on the F key and the right index on the J key when you type. That's what they are designed for... but I never do it cause it's pointless for me. If you go into the field of technology you will probably learn to type this...

inedible @inedible (768) • Singapore 4 Feb 12

"Success"is measured by "how much money you make/making"? agree/disagree?

sayo13 @sayo13 (414) • India 4 Feb 12

PumpkinThePIE I think being successful means you're happy. You don't need a lot of money you just need to feel good about life and stuff. I wouldn't care what life I had as long as I was happy about it. However some people are more materialistic and want lots of expensive...

PumpkinThePIE I don't think they need to do a project like this. Do they really need to know how hard it is to make money? This is kind of a useless project IMO. You might even lead some kids into real counterfeiting in the future. But they wouldn't get into trouble making...

Robyn @floridachick (603) • United States 3 Feb 12

PumpkinThePIE I hate waking up early unless I have something important to do. It's like a genetic trait for me, lol. I just want to sleep as long as I possibly can. Night time sits well for me though. It does seem more relaxing and I prefer environment you know? I'm also...

Blkqueen @Blkqueen (85) • United States 1 Feb 12

If you call for delivery and the person say on the phone it will take 30 mins for your food to get to your house but it takes them like an 1hr do you tip?

PumpkinThePIE Lol totally up to you. I would tip them if they made it early or on time. But double the expected delivery? No way... why pay them extra for giving you a bad service? If they have a convincing excuse and you have a heartfelt sorrow for them then go give them...

PumpkinThePIE You wouldn't exactly seem very polite for doing it. Cause people who reply probably want to hear back from you to see what you think. If you can't find the time to do it then that's probably forgivable. It happens to me sometimes.. although not much cause I...

PumpkinThePIE There's not reason you shouldn't. They are your parents after all. You shouldn't feel bad if you need help once in a while. If they've cared for you since you were born then of course they can provide support when you get older. Your parents are the people you...
