surfacesur @surfacesur (153) • Denmark 30 Jul 09

There is this woman, who has been fired from her work, because she got a tatoo and her boss told her to cover it. The she refused and got fired.. So the questions are: If YOU were this woman, would you then have covered the...

alangardner If I was her I would have covered up the tattoo because nothing is worse than loosing your job over anything. In my opinion tattoos should not be a big deal in the workplace because everyone seems to have them these days and no one seems to care or notice if...

alangardner Duh. Anything divided by zero has to be zero. :-) I love playing guessing games because generally they add some mystery to a conversation and a little bit of humor. The only thing I HATE about guessing games is if they keep on making you guess for a...

Do I owe someone an apology?

Kowgirl @Kowgirl (3490) • United States 30 Jul 09

I got a surprise when I logged on to Mylot today. I must have disagreed with someone on my friend list and they gave me a negative rating so my star went down another point. Not that it matters about the star or the number...

alangardner In my opinion you do not do do anything at all. The person who is trying to make you feel like voicing your opinion differently from theirs is the one who needs to apologize. This website is all about having a free discussion of whatever you want. If he does...

DONT get an animal if you cant keep it or take care of it! LOOK whats happening!

dloveli @dloveli (4366) • United States 30 Jul 09

There is nothing worse than someone who brings a pet home and then when it begins to grow, eat more, and require more care they throw it out to fend for itself. You wouldn't do it to a child, so why do it to an animal. In the...

alangardner I was thinking about getting a snake at one point, but I asked myself will I still be able to care for it once it gets too huge. In the end I decided to not get a snake because if I was not able to come up with a solution for keeping the pet long term I guess...

New Pepsi

ShellyB @ShellyB (5241) • United States 30 Jul 09

Have any of you tried the "new" Pepsi that comes in fancy aluminum bottles? When they are all sitting on the shelves nice and neat they sure seem to draw your attention, like they are screaming "BUY ME!" We bought three of them...

alangardner I think Pepsi and all of the other junk food companies out there just use deceptive advertising and other things such as putting out really cute and fancy cans to catch ones attention. I have seen these in the stores and bought a few simply because they looked...

alangardner well if computers shut down the world would end literally because nothing in the world would work such as gas stations wont be able to pump gas and the world would stop moving. Then I would think that everybody would have to deal with living like they did in...

How do you deal with Cowards!?

kamran12 @kamran12 (5526) • Pakistan 13 Apr 08

Cowards are special type of people. Because of their low self esteem, they appear friendly to you and may even flatter you often, just because of their fears that they can't face you. But, when an opportunity arises to attack you...

alangardner When I deal with cowards I tent to put pressure on them a lot into making them do what I want them to do. I deal with cowards all the time so I am just used to it I guess.

How close do you keep your purse or your wallet?

kbourgerie @kbourgerie (8780) • United States 13 Apr 08

I've noticed that when people are shopping or out and about that many times they will put their purse down in a cart or on a chair and walk away to look at other things. Alot of times the purse is wide open and you can obviously...

alangardner I like to keep a close eye on my wallet when I am away at places and not at home but when I am at home I really never pay attention to it. 95% of the time when someone steals from my wallet is at home so that means I have thiefs in my house or the people who...

Do you get to sleep in on Saturdays?

above31rubies @above31rubies (1863) • United States 12 Apr 08

I do. My husband is home on Saturdays so he isn't making any noise getting ready for work, he also shuts the bedroom door so the kids don't wake me up (leaves it open so I can hear them during the week) and I sleep better because...

How would you describe your personality?

dloveli @dloveli (4366) • United States 12 Apr 08

alangardner being a talker is not as bad as someone who jokes around a lot. My personality is just jokin' or messing around all the time. It is really hard for me to be serious. I am not that funny of a person but I think everything is funny. I have always been a person...

alangardner they will leave if you send them on a cruise across the world and you probably wont have to see them for a long time. Then during that time they are gone you can think of a good way to get rid of them permanently. lol. That is how I would do it but I know no...

If you ran over a child and they died could you live with that?

alangardner heck no I would not be able to live with that. Heck I would not even be able to live with it if I ran over a dog. I would probably hate myself so much for doing that I would probably have someone run over myself so I can know the pain the kid went trough. I...
