I am jealous of the people who can write using left hand!

daliaj @daliaj (5674) • India 5 Aug 09

I can't write using my left hand. I always wonder how people write very fast and have good handwriting using left hand. There are very few people in my city who can write using left hand. Most of the people force their kids to...

sylvaron I'm left-handed. I can say that it has many, many downsides. You're more likely to smear words on paper, and tools and other things are generally designed with right-handed people in mind. No consideration's put into place for people who are dominantly left...

PeacefulWmn9 @PeacefulWmn9 (10420) • United States 5 Aug 09

sylvaron At least a year to three years prior. You can't really know someone until you've been around them for quite a while-- who knows, you may find that they have enough faults and that your love isn't as unconditional as you think it is. Or you may have found that...

Why is college so expensive?

Mirita @Mirita (2668) • United States 5 Aug 09

We are sending our son to college ,and state Universities are becoming so expensive and even community colleges. I don't understand why public universities need to be so expensive. I think that education should be more...

college

sylvaron The colleges have to make money to keep themselves running and to pay their staff and whatnot. The government gives limited amounts of funding to each public college in a state. While I agree that college is expensive, when you account for how many students...

Why do textbooks cost so much?

Mattowander @Mattowander (27) • United States 5 Aug 09

Yes I understand that they are huge and full of supposedly great knowledge, but I'm having to pay over $100 for some of my college textbooks! Why do you think they cost so much?

textbooks

sylvaron The people who created those textbooks went through a heck of a lot of research and verification and whatnot. Those companies and the individuals within probably just want as much money as possible for what they made. Also, anything in college is generally...

Citychic @Citychic (4067) • United States 5 Aug 09

Hey friends, I was just curious if your any of your discussions have ever made it into today's tops? If so where you surprised to see it there. I noticed that one of mine made it over there and I guess it was a pretty good...

sylvaron I'm assuming it'd be... well, semi-easy (read: might be hard) to get one of your discussions into a top discussion merely because this website doesn't have a super-abundance of members (180k members atm).

sylvaron I really like Playlist.com, not every song by an artist is up on that website, but you can generally find what you're looking for if the song is popular enough. It works by finding / getting music from other people's websites where they host the mp3 files. You...

Have you ever had a large or dangerous fire near your home?

windymyre @windymyre (210) • United States 4 Aug 09

Today we were going to a concert about 20 minutes from our house. We had to take a detour because there is an oil company on fire. It is less than a mile from my brother's house. The fire has been burning since 3:30pm today & it...

Online earnings and virus protection? - squishycash and other websites

allisonbrk @allisonbrk (155) • United States 4 Aug 09

Since joining various PTC and other websites that pay you to do things, especially squishy cash, I've noticed that they ask you to turn off a lot of security features on your web browser. The question is for people who use these...

sylvaron I'd read up online from various other websites about the PTC site you're planning on going to before joining it. A lot of PTC websites have viruses. Some security features such as ActiveX might just interfere with the website, but if they're asking you to...

What Would You Do

p1kef1sh @p1kef1sh (45681) 2 Aug 09

You're alone, feeling unloved and lonely when there's a knock at the door. You open it and standing there is someone that you like who says that although it's short notice, they'd like to spend the day with you. Would you shut the...

sylvaron I'd definitely accept their offer. Seeing someone who'm I'm familiar with or who I'm fond of would definitely brighten my mood a bit, compared to the earlier feelings of unwanted solitude.
