    Skyrim: Any Tricks, Cheats, or Just Advice?

    "Werewolfism is awesome and has no downside beyond the once-per day use of the transformation. And of course being hunted down like the dog you are if you decide for some reason to transform in town. " Actually the once per day usage can be circumvented though Hircine's Ring from "Ill met by...

    How do people stay thin?

    No, and no. My friend got fat during his childhood and only changed his lifestyle when he realized he was going to die if he continued that way. He did weight watchers, nearly died after eating only 2 points a day and was hospitalized. When he recovered he took a moderate approach eating...

    How do people stay thin?

    It's also not an excuse. I have a friend who went from 350lbs to 140lbs within 4 years through diet and exercise changes.

    How do people stay thin?

    ") somehow can stay thin without working out and despite apparently eating a lot (hell, I'm in much worse shape than my girlfriend, yet I have an easier time walking, thank you Mini-Boot Camp). " Metabolism in her case. Won't work for you, sorry, life isn't fair. The solution is to frequently...

    Poll: Would you kill for your for your country?

    I would kill for a lot of reasons. My country, and especially the government that runs it is not one of them.

    Are you worried about STDs?

    'STDs' include sexually transmitted diseases and sexually transmitted infections. Sexually transmitted infections are curable, and a fair bit of STDs are STIs. It really depends on how promiscuous your partners are.

    Poll: Should I join a protest even if I'm in college?

    "Should I follow my beliefs or should I focus on my education?" This really depends on your major. Is it a specialized major that will nearly certainly get you a job in the future ( engineering, pharm, nursing, med) or is it a major in something completely useless such as art, history or...

    Poll: Asking for a kiss on your birthday.

    On second thought, don't ask for a kiss, that might creep her out. Ask her out you pansy, or at least smooth talk her into giving you a kiss rather than asking directly like some self-diagnosed assburgers patient.

    Poll: Asking for a kiss on your birthday.

    Kisses are extremely easy to get and give. If you aren't making out with a girl the first day she opens up to you, you are doing something wrong. I went to a bar the other day and got kissed by over three people, two girls and a guy. Your request is reasonable as long as you are out of high...

    Poll: Beer and Religion

    Alcohol is considered forbidden by a great deal of adherents of Islam. Some are okay with it, and some are not. A better topic would have been the issue of consumption of pork being explicitly forbidden in Islam and Judaism, but not in Christianity, solely because of western society rather...

    Why do so many marriages fail today?

    The first significant fact I learned in sociology was that romance and financial independence is leading to an increase in divorce. If both partners in a marriage have their own sources of income they are less dependent on each other and less likely to put up with the other in times of emotional...

    The Autistic Hacker: is He at Fault?

    "On the one hand, yes he caused a great deal of damage, turned off several military systems post 9/11 and caused alot of damage." No he didn't, he looked at the files and left polite messages like "your security is crap". By hacking into the US government for a stupid reason (UFOS) he exposed...

    Can (Internet) Piracy ever be Justified?

    As much as I hate absolutes, the likelihood of someone being involved with piracy is extremely high, and I realize the difficulty in substantiating this claim through empirical means.

    Ride Out the Apocalypse in the World's First Zombie-Proof House

    Mosquitos digest the HIV virus. Assuming that zombification is caused by a virus, and it survives a mosquito's digestive process, you are still assuming that people will certainly get bitten by bugs, and the bugs will certainly carry the virus.
