I'm depressed. Most of the time I surround myself with inane distractions so I don't have time to think about the things in my life that make me sad, but there's one thing that always gets to me: people saying "happiness is a...

I was talking to someone on a forum who said they never buy anything online without using a discount code. I didn't know what they were talking about, but they said most websites have coupon codes you can enter when you're making...

discount codes

Shanyn Elaborate. If you're referring to the code, obviously the coupon system of every website is different. Still, most of them are alphanumeric strings that post no risk. So I'm not sure what your attempt to make me look wrong is all about. :)

Shanyn Babies don't understand permanence when they're very young. When you walk out of the room or hide yourself behind your hands, they don't realize you still exist. This is why they'll sometimes cry when their loved ones leave the room. The look of surprise and...

I do. The food I eat in Winter is very different that the food I prepare in Spring or Summer. As the Earth starts to heat me, I tend to eat a lot more veggies, salads and fruit. Even the carbohidrates I eat are changed into salads...

Shanyn I don't do it as much. I will say that I don't like eating hot soup when I'm too warm, or that I'm more inclined to eat fresh, crisp, or juicy things like cucumbers or grapes when I'm warm, but that has more to do with temperature than season--a warm winter...

Shanyn Yes, this is usually called "whitehat" and "blackhat." Black hat hackers are the bad guys who steal your credit cards, commit fraud, and create viruses. White hat hackers are often hired as computer security specialists and will do everything they can to...

Shanyn You know, if you look at the bottom of the sign, you can make out the tops of the letters "RSTIE AL" as in "Kirstie Ally." No one is copying anyone. This is a picture of an ad for her show.

Shanyn Everyone I know enjoyed it! There are a few other movies that follow the same format: Guy goes into native tribe, befriends them, and fights with them against his own people. They're all generally really successful. Some examples, if you've ever seen any of...

Shanyn Well, think of it this way: what harm could it do? Realistically? Coupon codes are usually just strings of letters and numbers that you put in when you're checking out. Say I go to Amazon and order a book, and I'm told to type in 5TR2B9 to save 10%. Typing...

This is the case. Mon, Wed and Thurs I work in the office but Tues and Fri I have to come to office again to collect documents and submit it to the HQ. Usually I go out at 11.30am but my lady boss disagree. She ask me to come...

Shanyn Are you hourly or salary? I'd probably go in early if I was hourly, but maybe not if I was salary. How badly do you think they need you where you work? Any danger of a layoff? Times are tough these days; do whatever you're asked if it helps you keep your job.

Shanyn I'm the saddest about King of the Hill. The show barely had any substance, but it was good for cheap giggles. Maybe it's because I haven't watched it all and had as much time to get tired of all the "Peggy has big feet" jokes. :)

I am five feet six inches and weigh about 160 pounds. When I was fit and healthy, I used to weigh about 135 pounds. This is about two years before I got pregnant. Now I can't lose the weight no matter what I do. It's getting to...

Shanyn 5'6" and 160 doesn't sound bad at all. It's only a little padding. I wouldn't worry about how it makes you look, if that's your concern at all. If you "used to be" a runner, I think you probably haven't lost that. Do you enjoy running for running's sake? If...

At 16, she has many suitors, but rejected them for her studies. She felt sorry then, but she knows her priority. She got no.2 in her class. Is she doing the right thing?

Shanyn Some of us want moderation--some success in all aspects of life. Others focus only on their relationship, or only on their studies. Some people are happy, others aren't. Only she can really know if she's doing the right thing. Make sure she's doing it for...

Shanyn I love meat. Beef especially. It's so hard to keep it in moderation, it's just way too tasty! I do eat some veggies, but they just don't taste nearly as good (they don't taste bad, but they simply aren't savory and delicious) and aren't remotely as satisfying...

Shanyn "Raw" in this sense means "unprocessed." So raw milk would be fresh, unprocessed milk--unpasteurized, unhomogenized, unfortified, basically the way you'd get it if you sucked it straight from the udder. There's a big debate about whether this is safe, and some...

I am honestly confessed, I can not keep a consistency routine. I vowed to lose weight a week ago, and I only keep on exercise for a couple of days, then I felt like quitting already. After work, I felt so tired, then I told...

Shanyn I'm the same way, especially with working out. I always give up after such a short time. That said, I know that giving up after a day or two is completely ridiculous. As you get in shape, exercising actually starts to energize you, not wear you out. If you...
