All of these answers were good, but I especially liked Eirene's "home-court advantage" metaphor.

Yeah, I appreciated all the answers, as well -- thanks! My situation is likely to be a bit like Genuine's -- Marx's family (esp. his mom) are way hands-on, and my dad is way hands-off. Neither of us have had significant problems with each other's parents yet, but I suspect it's only a matter of time before his mom and I need to have it out about what Marx and I perceive as her lack of boundaries.

I feel like in addition to thumbs up and editor's choice there ought to be a Katya seal of approval for Board answers. You know, some sort of stamped-looking crest with a K in the middle.

Can we also have the ability to "like" the Katya Crest to show if we agree with her or not? Then it could be a game to see if your answer gets more likes than her seal of approval.

I will take it upon myself to design the Katya Krest today after school.

Time travel schemes. I just liked this one. And I loved Timeline, too.

I love that someone told her to consult the 100 Hour Board.

This needs to become a game. Let's all learn forgery, go find old books at libraries and sign random famous names in the cover!!!

Striking that there were two opposing consecutive questions about body image and eating disorders. I think all three women (Size Four, Naturally Skinny, and Friend of Naturally Skinny) would be well- served by visiting Women's Services.

I cannot support any game that involves defacing library books.

No Katya Krest for you!

One of my great fears is that I'll marry a left-handed man. It happened to my mom, it could happen to me!

Dating a left-handed guy is awesome. You can hold hands AND both of you have your dominant hands free to do stuff. It doesn't feel like you're being led around by the hand like a little kid or something.

AND JUST WHAT IS WRONG WITH MARRYING A LEFT HANDED MAN?!

I learned to eat with my left hand for this very reason. Meal-time hand-holding!

Also it makes me feel more European.

In the Arab world they pretty uniformly eat with their right hand. I think it has to do with left hand Islamic toilet etiquette and that toilet paper is not to be assumed present outside of western hubs.

Yeah, unless you're left-handed too.
