I want to say how dangerous and irresponsible that is... but I can't. I'm envious I can't do the same thing  |

| I spent two days on this, with no luck :( Did you try disassembling it as x86 ops? That looks like a program to me... I read that that was one of the approaches, but I'm not a developer so that was a little beyond me. I tried all the text encoding schemes I could find, as well as a number of stegan... |

| I'm 29 yr old aspie female and I have 3 children. When I was younger children scared the hell out of me and I said I never wanted any of my own. They I met my husband and got married and after settling down I really wanted children. I think the thing that changed my mind is that I get on so great w... |

| My first memory of being able to read was at 4, but I was probably 3 when I first learnt. I remember someone commenting how cute it was that I was looking at a book as though I could read it, and I remember being quite annoyed, because I really was reading it. My parents bought me a computer when I ... |

| CURSE YOU WOMEN'S PANTS FOR HAVING CRAPPY POCKETS Ugh, I hate this too. I must have pockets. Though there seems to have been a fashion for shrugs/vests/cardigans with decent pockets over the past year, so I've picked up quite a few of these to make up for pants that don't have them. I usually carry... |

| I've had a few disastrous long-term relationships and one that seems to be working (particularly in the areas where the others failed), so I'll give my personal theory. I think one of the most important things is compatibility. In a lot of relationships I see, both parties can be trying to make it w... |

I tried to draw a vine pattern, but it came out looking like a very large scar. My colleagues told me I looked like I'd been in some kind of serious ac... |

I've posted some fairly awful (in my opinion) stories on fanfiction.net, but only ever received positive feedback. I think if people don't like your work, they just d... |

Because it's cheaper than Sydney and I'll be able to get work in my field there when I finish my studies (criminology). I've never really understood the general dislike of Canberra. I find it clean and civ... |
