Do eyelashes grow back?

olisaur @olisaur (1922) • United States 31 Dec 09

If you cut the hair on your head it grows back, if you shave your legs it grows back, but if an eyelash falls out, will it grow back? I've always wondered this. I've noticed everyso often when I curl my eye lashes or put on...

Mayuko From my own personal past experience, yes eyelashes do grow back if you cut it. Several years ago, I accidentally cut off some of my eyelashes when I was trimming my hair... I was really upset because one eye looked much different without the...

When you have a carton of neopolitan ice cream at home, which color goes down the fastest? One of my favorite ice cream flavors is strawberry, which I like to mix with vanilla, so the pink and whte always go down first at my...

Mayuko It's been a while since there has been a container of Neapolitan ice cream in my house. I think the vanilla finishes the fastest. It's my favorite flavor and apparently, the rest of my family likes it a lot as well

olisaur @olisaur (1922) • United States 19 Apr 10

After you go shopping [using a debit/credit] card, so you keep you receipts? I went shopping earlier today, and I noticed at the bottom of the receipt, it said "Retain this receipt for you records." I have a habit of leaving...

Mayuko I don't have a credit or debit card -- I use cash for my purchases. I keep all of my receipts, mostly in case I want to return or exchange the item. Also, I like to keep them for my own personal records. Like if I was wondering how much a certain item cost, I...

Do you prefer digital or analog watches?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 1 Apr 08

I think most of us have watches. Assuming you have not relegated the role of timekeeper to your mobile phone, you would likely be wearing a watch when you are out of the house. What is your favorite type of watch? A digital one...

Mayuko In terms of function, I prefer digital watches. I read them much faster than analog watches and the digital ones often come with a stopwatch and alarm function, so it is quite useful. Even so, I think analog watches look more appealing in terms of the clock...

Are you a channel surfer or a single-track viewer?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 15 Mar 07

What are we discussing this time? Announcing... the ubiquitous TELEVISION! If I could bold this word and make it jump at you like an inflated balloon, I would. :P Nowadays, there is a television in pretty much every house. Not...

Mayuko Generally speaking, I would be a "single-tracker viewer". I say this because most of the time when I watch TV, I'm watching a program that I had recorded on my DVR, so flipping through channels would be kind of pointless. If I'm watching live TV, then I'll...

Mayuko I prefer the morning for a few reasons. I'm not scared of the dark, but I don't like being out at night. Often, there tends to be more questionable people out late at night. And I don't like that I can't see things clearly at night even with street lights. I...

Who brightens up your visit while on mylot?

joey_matthews @joey_matthews (8354) 13 Jan 08

This is something, I probably should focus more on. All my close friends here should already know I really appreciate them and when they're away or myself I always wonder what's going on. Todays has been one of the first I've...

Mayuko No one brightens my visit. Unfortunately, I haven't made any friends here. I pretty much just comment on various discussions, but I haven't made any connections with anyone here

Fighting insomnia

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 26 Feb 07

What do you guys do when you simply cannot get to sleep yet need to? I know some people believe that having too much energy can be a cause. I tried running just before bed, running till I am tired.. yet it didn't really seem to...

Mayuko I've never had this issue, but I can guess what I would do if I couldn't fall asleep. I would probably watch TV or read. Not that these are activities that bore me, but I might as well not be bored lying in bed awake. And I know they aren't things that will...

Mayuko I don't really have a favorite day of the week. I'm not working & I don't have regular class hours, so often, the day of the week doesn't really matter or make a big difference in my life. I guess I would say my favorite day is Friday because that is the only...

Do you spend some quiet time alone everyday?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 13 Mar 07

One moment you are scrubbing the floor, the next you are washing the dishes. One moment you are meeting a client, the next you are stuck in a meeting. One moment you are getting ready for work, the next you are preparing to...

Mayuko I like have some time by myself, but not necessarily to listen to my thoughts, or reflect on the day or anything like that. I just like to be alone even if I'm watching TV, going online cleaning or doing whatever. Being around people too long & too often makes...

Do you swallow your pills whole or grind them into powder?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 14 Apr 07

No one likes getting sick. Unless you are a saint (and a sick saint at that), you would want to stay fit and healthy. I remember the times when I was a kiddie and got sick. Those times sure weren't fun. Visiting doctors and...

Mayuko Most of the pills I take are soft-gel, which are much easy to swallow than the chalky ones. The only chalky pill I take is vitamin C, which I don't swallow or grind into a powder; I let it dissolve on its own in a beverage that has vitamin C in it like orange...

Do you SKIN the APPLE before you eat?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 4 Jun 07

I am going to get the ground ready for a little fertile discussion on nutrition... nah, just kidding. I am not a "nutrition freak" who keeps a calorie calculator and swears by soya bean drink for breakfast. But hey, let's talk...

Mayuko I prefer to eat apples with the skin on. I like the taste & texture of the skin. I'd only eat the skin if I washed the apple very well with vinegar to remove germs from it. I don't eat the skin of pears, though. I've never considered the skin of that to be...

Do you like to use disposable forks, spoons, knives or chopsticks?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 11 Jun 07

I know it is Monday today but let us strive to be forward looking. Let's think about the weekends for that is the time when we relax and party. I am not going to ask when you eat takeaways as opposed to home-cooked meals. I am...

Mayuko When I order Chinese takeaway & eat at home, I often like to use the plastic forks that they provide. I just find it's more fun to use I wish they gave chopsticks instead! Often, I wash or wipe off the plastic forks before using them. And after...

Would you ask for the bill or pay at the cashier?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 1 Sep 08

Mayuko If I were paying with cash, then I would be fine with having the bill brought to me. If I were using a credit or debit card, then I'd rather go up to the register/cashier. I wouldn't want to have my credit/debit card leave my sight. I don't know if the...

Do you wear a MASK each day?

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 28 Jun 07

This is NOT about the movie "The Mask". This is about you, a human being in this place called Earth. We all have different roles in our lives and we wear different shoes each day. We might be fathers, mothers, grandpas,...

Mayuko I understand what you mean, but I think using the word "mask" makes it sound as though you are trying to hide a part of yourself around different people. I've often heard people say they wear different "hats" & I think that sounds better than "mask". I think...

Hotwire.com

ravinskye @ravinskye (8237) • United States 1 Mar 08

I was wondering if anyone has used hotwire.com to book hotel reservations. I went to their site and found some reservations for a good price, but the catch is they don't tell you the hotel they are for until you book the rooms....

Mayuko I've never used Hotwire & I didn't know that was how the site operated. I wouldn't book a hotel without knowing which one it is or where it is located. I would only book it if I knew I would be able to cancel the room without any penalty.

Do You Think Technology Like Text Messaging Or MySpace Make It Easier To Cheat?

biwasaki @biwasaki (1745) • United States 18 Apr 07

My husband and I have a disagreement over this. He heard on the radio last week that 90% of people who cheat on their spouse/significant other have both MySpace accounts and text messaging. The reason being that text messages...

Mayuko I think the major reason people have jobs they hate or dislike is because that is all they can get. Maybe it is one of the few jobs they are qualified to do, or because they lack experience or education, that is all they can do. Or they might have gotten into...
