I bet if someone drank a whole canteen of Mountain Dew they'd decant in short order.

This was over the weekend, but I loved hearing all these:
http://theboard.byu.edu/questions/86148/

I had my share of "dating" failures as well.

While at summer camp, I maybe sent postcards to this guy I had a crush on. I'm pretty sure we spoke hardly at all before I did this, and never again after. I don't blame him and if I ever saw him at a HS reunion I would still be embarrassed. Other girls were doing it too, but that doesn't make it any less dumb. Our school district was on the smaller side and published a phone/address directory every year, so that's where we got the info. I still don't know why someone would bring the directory to camp though.

Yep. Peer pressure and hormones. A great combination for future discomfort.

Impressed by all of the serious answers to this question that I still think (despite all the earnestness of response) was written by a troll

Oh my goodness, this is the Mormon twist on the exact plot set-up of my current favorite TV show, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

I think she should watch that show to start to get some insight on why she's hung up on this dude who's taken.

Modesty guy has asked a lot of related questions that unfortunately lead me to believe he's sincere :/

I was waiting for an answer to rip him. But you guys were nice. I can't help but wildly speculate as to what brought his ideas on.

Can Candid Non-Canadian just please stop with the passive-aggressive attacks on my country's culture or maybe just leave if he/she finds Canada so weird and distasteful all the time? And good grief, hemp is not illegal in the US. You can grow it with a permit in a lot of states and import it for use in textiles and food. It's not psychoactive. That's like saying you shouldn't eat button mushrooms because there are also mushrooms you can get high on.

As far as BQ 86307 goes about organizational behavior, I had the opportunity to take a business class titled organizational behavior for part of my emphasis, and let me just say that it was a waste of 3 credits and my time.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight???

I wanted to write an angry answer about how judging all Canadians by Vancouver hippies is like judging all Americans by Seattle hippies, but I was on vacation and didn't feel like getting out my computer.

Also, why would you complain about Vancouver hippie-dom? Bike trails, cherry trees, good education, STABLE BANKING SYSTEM - a lot us Yanks could learn.

BQ 86391 about garment length

I think all the answers are accurate. I would also like to add that I am 6'0" and wear the tall Carinessa garments and they hit about 3-4" above my kneecap. So it would be entirely appropriate for someone 5'4" to get the petite garments.

A Writer is more forgiving of me, because an adult man that pervs on a teen girl about graphic details of consensual sexual exploration, repeatedly, is the opposite of a "good person" in my book. It's predatory and wrong.

If I had a daughter I'd be much, much more "hurt" by this kind of treatment of my kid (EVEN if I thought that she was too young, had made a dumb decision, or put herself at risk or broken house rules) than the initial fooling around.

Grrrrrrrrrrr

I'm 5'4" and even the petite garment bottoms come down below my knees. So yeah, if you're 5'4", the petite ones definitely aren't going to be way short.

This question on manscaping was entertaining. My husband has a Gaston level of chest, back, arm, and leg hair to the point where I submitted this post. In response to the manscaping, I honestly don't like it when my husband does it. Due to some of the recent surgeries, they've had to shave one side of him basically from armpit to hip. The hard part is that his hair is so coarse, that it is prickly when it grows back and is only now starting to be soft again when it has been nearly two months since the most recent surgery. So, even though it is his body, I've expressed to him that he doesn't really get to make the choice

I don't know if it's an answer I liked or a question I liked more, but the hidden photo finding one was fun. It was one of my two first immediate impressions. Apparently I know (and remember) weird campus hiding spaces better than most.

Loved the answers on the sister that has a great life and her brother is guilt tripping her. My brother is one of my closest confidants but he doesn't feel obligated to spend every waking moment with me. I would probably hang out all the time if it were up to me but recognize that he has his own life. B-)

I wonder if it's any easier to start with a solved cube and go through the motions of trying to get to each possible configuration within 20 moves or less.
