| When I was a kid, my dreams were very simple and easy to describe, at least those that I still remember anything about. They were all nightmares, often ending with my death. These days, my dreams are all over the place. They somewhat make sense while within the dream, but when I wake up I tend to be... |

| Waste as in don't do anything useful, or waste as in can't even get things you enjoy doing done? Sounded a bit like the later, but if you enjoy reading about video games, then it's not a wasted time any more than playing video games would be. Either way, maybe you're just too tired to do much after ... |

The boss
The job
Everything about the goddamn job
I wanna quit, and I would if it was financially possible, but it's not. I'm trying to get a new job, have been actively trying for about a year now, but I don't even get invited to an interview. |

| I'm pro-choice. Don't give a damn about abortion really. But from an autistic rationale point, this is a very weak analogy presented here. Agreed. What we should do is force every man to pay child support and half of the medical expenses caused by pregnancy and childbirth plus possible long term co... |

| I love karaoke! Not that I've ever sang in a karaoke bar; I don't like bars and like drunken people even less. I sing at anime conventions and at the gatherings of the local anime club. Mostly Japanese songs. Can I sing? ...No, not really. It's always the kind of karaoke that has a point system, so ... |

| Most novelists probably don't think too much about stuff like that, so they'd find it difficult to write characters like that. Assuming that they even know about some people being like that, of course. I write fiction as a hobby, and I tend to put a lot of weight on the thought process of the charac... |

| Why is it that some fiction writers will make up a location for the setting instead of setting it in a real city? Is it that if it is set in a real city, then they must make it as accurate as possible? This is the first reason that came to my mind, yes, but like Fnord said, using a real city might ... |

| Hmm I'd like to think that I am. I don't make much, so I kinda have to be. One thing that helps is writing down every spent cent, and also having clear categories I mark it under (food, hygiene, living, medical bills etc.) That way I can always know how much I've spent on what and where I could poss... |

| Well, on one hand, it'd mean no school shootings and such. Sure, the people who want to kill will find ways to do so even without guns, but if they needed to use other types of weapons, there would be less victims than the same person could get with a gun. On the other hand, with the war going on in... |

I'm not an American, so it's an ordinary summer day for me. And I have work that day.
One question guys: why do they use fireworks on 4th of July? I mean, in the middle of the summer, isn't there a huge risk of the fireworks causing fires? Is it really worth it? |

| From what I've heard, expiration dates are put in to food products so that those who prepare/sell them can be free of responsibility at some point in case someone eats something too old and gets ill. Assuming this is true, lots of products are actually perfectly usable even after the date. My rule i... |
