    You have the power to bring back one cancelled TV show...

    Pushing Daisies....please? Also, and I might be the only one to say this, but I really wanted to see where Kings was going...

    Give me a topic and your position and I will argue with you.

    If this sentence exists, then it is not true.

    Your blood is now a different colour...

    My blood turns blue, giving me the incredible ability to have loads of money and connections I've neither earned nor deserve. Also I can automatically become a celebrity by releasing a sex tape.

    Poll: Self harm (serious topic)

    Experienced, done for the same reason people become anorexic or bulimic. It's about controlling your body and pushing thresholds. Never showed anyone but my friend who "practiced" and never really wanted anyone to see, so attention was out. Some people drink or do drugs to cope, others do...

    Someone please help me understand my parents thought process

    Sounds like your mother is frustrated as Hell about something. It could be about a lot of things, some of which might have nothing to do with you, some of which might have everything to do with you. You can't know until you find out, you can't find out with your current approach to the...

    A movie that messed you up

    Jacob's Ladder when I was ten. The idea that you either live with demons in a world full of conspiracy, are crazy, or (best option) are dead. It was my first glimpse into authentic hopelessness.

    How or why did your parents choose your name?

    My grandparents picked my name because my parents were fighting so much over it. They chose poorly, but it was so hilarious to my parents at the time (Total stoners)that they rolled with it. Thus my name is a pun. (Also, unmarried Latina, I gets four names! My mother's maiden name and my...

    Underappreciated Cultures in the Western World

    This might seem like I'm trying to sound more intellectual than I actually am, but I really honestly want to get some examples of new places to explore. I feel like there are certain cultures that are simply under appreciated in the western world. I know some we really extol the virtues of...

    Poll: "They just hate it because it's popular."

    In trying to be honest, I'll state that I might have hated some stuff because it was popular, but I think it boils down to my mind being confused as to why it is popular, less so than my actually just being elitist. Actually, I consider my self a loser in a bad way. I still don't understand...

    How is the American War for Independance taught in the UK?

    Actually, YES! In quite a bit of detail! We spent several chapters on it and Oliver Cromwell's brief commonwealth! We also spent a lot of time on the War of Roses, the Thirty Years was, the Signing of the Magna Carta...etc. Mostly because they are considered to have helped shape our ideas...

    How is the American War for Independance taught in the UK?

    I can only imagine how horrifying it must have been to have to learn all those thousands of years in only twelve. As for me...I grew up in the Los Angeles area...so you'll be surprised I think as to what constitutes American history there. We basically started with Native nations of the...

    Poll: Are Girls more Complicated than Boys?

    Who the hell are you dating? Also, the "You decide" tends to be an attitude of placation, rather than of not knowing or testing. They want you to be happy. It's poorly done, because the situation calls for compromise and you should discuss what you're both in the mood for, but that's the...

    Poll: Are Girls more Complicated than Boys?

    Strange, I read s study that stated the exact opposite. It's outdated now, but I wonder...

    Poll: Are Girls more Complicated than Boys?

    I think here that you might be either young or naive (neither of which is bad, just limiting in scope.) To say that women don't understand what they're thinking and men do suggests that men DO truly understand what they've reported to you. If that were the case, there would be far fewer...
