I think my problem is that I don't like conflict. I love math because there is no conflict and no opinions. Every math teacher across the country would give you the same grade on your last math test (with the exception of "partial credit" and so forth). That gives me comfort. I don't like ...

I feel like I should have a lot to say on this thread, now that I noticed it. The answer really is 42 . You are all mistaken, you silly 47 people. That may be the answer to a stupid question somewhere, but 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and EVERYTHING. And my favorite number is 127.

Economic Left/Right: -1.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.64

But honestly, my problem isn't that I don't know where I stand. It is that I just don't care. I know I should care, patiotic duty, yada,yada. But politics just anoys me. Sorry.

This caused me to read through "my questions" in detail, which is something I haven't done in a while. It turns out that I try to answer too many of other people's questions. I haven't asked an actual question in a while. Note to self: stop that. Anyway, I finally found one. 22157 was answ...

Goodbye Optimus! I too was sad to read that, especially ending on such a sour note. And I never saw the DWL thing coming either. Impressive. You shall be missed!

This question intrigued me as well. I often wondered why we separated off every three zeros. In my history of Math class, we talked about how the mind generally can only count objects easily for four or less, and that is part of why we cross off the fifth tick mark rather than use five lines next to...

Darth, you took the words right out of my mouth. I came to this forum to say just about that exact thing. It is my personal interpretation that my husband's salary is two parts- our income, and the government's income they took before we got our part. Others can feel differently, but I really didn't...

My son would love it. He is only 2, but one of his favorite toys is a tape measure. I don't think he would be very good at the sport, but he would be happy to try.

I wouldn't change. I like my nym too much. But I am an alumni, not a student, so I can never be a writer now. (Not that alumni can't write, just that they can't be accepted as new writers.)

I especially like reading the ones about his fat brother Jeff, because my husband works with him so we know him and his family rather well. He really is fat. And lazy. Just like Erik says.

That's my claim to . . . fame . . .

Ditto to what Fred said. I made up random things for questions early on, but once I picked The Answer is 42, I stuck with it. Unless there was a question I didn't want attached to me (or to fake me), in which case I made up yet another random name for that question only.

I swear, I am never going to make it to one of these things. I somehow thought this whole time that it was Saturday night not Friday.

For once, I am actually free for a boardie party! Granted, I graduated from college a few years ago, so I might not "fit in with a bunch of college kids anyway", but I might try and make a cameo appearance. Let me know where to be!

I can answer the first question. The order of the questions comes from how old they are. Meaning, the ones at the top are usually the most over-hours questions, and the bottom are comments that aren't even 100 hours old. So my guess is that these are ending up on the top because the writers are taki...
