Weapon Of Choice

lampar @lampar (7584) • United States 10 Dec 09

Mylotters, If you are given a chance to make a decision of your life time to own a weapon for self defense against the attacker who not only want to invade your home but also want to hurt you to meet his twisted need. What is your...

cambiste I'm a student of the taek-won-do. But if my opponent has a blade weapon or gun, it could be of little use. Wish they would give licenses for keeping a bazooka at home.

Have you ever multitasking while you are driving or using your P/C? Some people just can not stop doing them no matter what, they talk on the phone, eating, putting on make up, constantly channel surfing radio station at the same...

How to change the corrupted students' mind?

edev85 @edev85 (26) • Indonesia 14 Mar 11

In my country, many primary students speak rude and dirty words. Some of them even start to smoke. They often do that after the school time. There are many stories about the young students which act inappropriately. For example,...

cambiste The child acts that way because of what he was exposed to, probably by movies and the TV. If parents do not watch over their kids when they watch TV and see that they do not watch inappropriate films and channels, this is bound to happen. Nowadays, most...

The reason I fear of it is because my paypal is being hacked by someone which is a admin of a PTC Site( If I'm Not Mistaken) An amount of money at about $45 is being transferred from my credit card to the idiot's paypal...

cambiste Go to help section, and send a mail to paypal's customer service before 60 days are up. Also, file a dispute (find this option in your account itself) for the money you've sent and say it was not sent by you, and your account was hacked. Do this also before...

Publishing a book: Is it really that hard? Help me out!

Navimaster @Navimaster (3) • United States 28 Mar 10

I've searched throughout the internet about publishing my novel, but now I'm doubting whether I should try at all. I've heard you need to pay agents A LOT of money to get your book on the top of the stack with some publishers. And...

cambiste Publishers cannot afford to pay for the promotion so every single book he accepts to publish, so it natural that the person writing the book would have to pay for the initial costs. If the book is a success, in the long run your investment will pay off. For...

cambiste That was a bit too much. Why didn't your manager deny giving compensation? It's not a big issue at all, and there was no loss on their side - it was just plain water. I think the manager was too polite. This is not likely to happen in my country though. We...

horoscopes

SaNdRa15 @SaNdRa15 (128) • United States 20 Mar 10

are you a believer in horoscopes or do you just think they are for fun? it is the year of the tiger in the system of chinese horoscope (and i'm a tiger accordingly), yet my year has not been so-so so far. what do you think?

cambiste I really do think it is best to not believe or put your your trust too much into a horoscope or other kinds of reading. One's mind and determination is the only thing that can decide your future, but at the same time it is fun to know what the various systems...

Good series that ends abruptly

saizo6 @saizo6 (2199) • United States 31 Jan 10

This has got to be one of the most frustrating things ever. I was reading the manga, Akeboshi Ibun Suikoden a while back and it's was a pretty good series. I was really looking forward to seeing how the story turned out but then...

cambiste I think that happens to just about all the mangas i get into - with the exception of skip beat and detective Conan - and i stopped reading one-shots and mangas that don't have at least 4 volumes. There was W- Juliet that stopped at vol 9, Hikaru No Go that...

Should you give a bigger tip?

Always smiling @allknowing (140557) • India 17 Mar 10

You engage the services of an urchin boy just to carry your luggage and tip him a pittance. He looks at you and says that that will not even get him half a peg. Would you give him more so that he gets his full peg?

1 response

cambiste The tip you give should reflect how much of a help he has been to you. If he's doing everything the usual way, giving him the standard tip is the better way. If he gets two customers, he can get his full peg, and i'm sure in a crowded place they get over...

My take on Haruhi Suzumiya

keinah2 @keinah2 (301) • Philippines 28 Feb 10

Although I didn't like this series that much, I think it has the most unique storyline. As for the reason why I don't like it, it has some scenes that are way too gory for me to handle..well anyway, it's one of the most best...

cambiste lol is all i can say about haruhi. They messed up the episode orders (was that supposed to be funny?) and people appeared out of nowhere. And the talking cat episode was really hilarious! The season 2 was annoying - kind of - with all the repeats from episode...

SKIP BEAT! have you read or watched about it?

jd107nette @jd107nette (1454) • Philippines 14 Mar 10

I have completely finished and watched the entire available episodes of this anime over and over again. It's romantic and funny at the same time. Also, there's that mystery that you would always look forward to seeing how Kyoko...

cambiste Thanks for reminding me. I haven't read the recent updates on SB manga, but i've downladed and watched the 25 eps of SB anime. But the manga is way cooler. Happy mylotting.

cambiste I'm assuming this is a powerpoint presentation. A good presenter would: -keep eye contact with a large proportion of the audience when he speaks -have a good flow of ideas when presenting -keep a list of the bare minimum of opints he has to present under...

Does your Avatar describe you?

kar295rocks @kar295rocks (2116) • India 17 Mar 10

Am I Happy ? Am I sad ? Am I something beside that ?

think_twice @think_twice (553) • India 19 Sep 09

It is very simple to say I am happy. Sometimes ago I also think in that way. But it is life. It has many magic cards in its stock beyond our thought. I don't envy others but I disliked some who express their inhuman happiness...

1 response

cambiste I don't think there's anything wrong with that question, on the other hand, I do think that is a very optimistic way to look at life. People often get confused about what to do when a situation arises. This kind of thinking can help you take a path that...
