The nintendo wii was sold out EVERYwhere.

megumiart @megumiart (3771) • United States 23 Nov 07

Today my sister and I went go shopping for a wii. We have been saving up for one quite a while, and figured it may be best to see if the stores had it on sale on Black Friday. Well, we went to 10 different stores all over town,...

coalasice My Dh is a manager for GameStop. If you really want a Wii, contact your local store and ask what time they usually get shipments. They never know when the Wii is coming, so call EVERY DAY at that time until they say yes we got them, then RUN down there....

coalasice I shaved my head once, it wasn't so bad at all, and it all grew back. Maybe you should take the plunge and do it for your daughter! Just kidding, but what a cute little girl you must have. "Out of the mouths of babes..." right?

Has anyone read "The Scarlett Letter"?

krayzee @krayzee (1160) • Romania 4 Apr 07

If so, how did you find it? Did you like it? What were your favorite parts? I'm reading it right now in order to expand my knowledge of English classics but I find it slightly boring (I am still at the beginning though). I...

coalasice I thought it was one of the most boring books I'd ever read. I had to read it for 11th grade AP English, and even the teacher admitted how boring it was. The fact that it goes on forever without dialogue...ugh. I love a lot of other classic books, and I...

Was there a baby name you had to 'sacrifice' for others?

seamonkey @seamonkey (1976) • Ireland 9 Mar 07

For instance, I liked Andreas but I knew it would be too 'foreign'. My husband liked Sage but I hated it so he had to give in. Were there names you really loved but had to leave off your list because you knew relatives or friends...

If someone enters the toilet, will you pretend you are not there?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 9 Mar 07

Before I go on, let me assure all that this is a clean discussion. Minors below the age of 18 do not need parental permission to continue. Let's imagine that you are doing some shopping when you suddenly feel the call of...

coalasice I hate to use public toilets for this reason! I embarrass VERY easily. I'd probably have to wait. In fact, I will only go #1 if someone is running the water, or if no one is in there. I think I'd have to go home to do #2 so I didn't get stuck in this...

coalasice I would of course pay off all my bills. Then I would divide it in half, and split that between mutual funds for my 2 kids. With the rest, I would buy a great house for us in a nice neighborhood, and a bigger car for us. I'd also pay off all my moms bills, and...

If you could learn one type of fighting style what would it be?

reaperz @reaperz (1266) • United States 7 Mar 07

There are ALOT of fighting styles out there but, what would you choose to learn if you had a choice? Would it be for tradition, self-defense or just for enjoyment?

coalasice In a strictly hypothetical sense, I think it would be really cool to be an assassin! Like in Kill Bill or something! But in reality, I'd love to learn some form of martial arts. I'd love to have that centered feeling, and also know I can defend myself if...

As a parent, do you think your actions affect your children?

itsjustmeb @itsjustmeb (1212) • Canada 7 Mar 07

Interracial Relationships

Does it bug you when someone is always late?

ironstruck @ironstruck (2298) • Canada 5 Mar 07

It just makes me crazy. I work with this guy who has this habit of being 4 or 5 minutes late almost every single day. I mean, why don't people just set their clocks 30 minutes earlier or something? I just don't get it. It...

coalasice I hate when people are late. I think it is so disrespectful. If time really was money, some people would be broke for sure! At my old job, the manager who was supposed to relieve me was ALWAYS late. She'd at least call and say she was coming in late, but it...
