Somebody had to restart this thread. I hope it's okay if I do it.
You aren't mad at me, are you?
>>501
It really depends on the individual - age doesn't have anything to do with it. What if I fall in love with a 70-year-old? But as a rule of thumb, I tend to find the thought of sex with anybody older than my mother (49) a bit creepy.
>>503
What's the youngest age with whom you wouldn't feel creepy doing sexual things?
>>504
There are some great ones here in Britain. I especially like "Gropecunt Lane", "Twatt" and "Sandy Balls":

I actually lived in a village called Pity Me for a while. That was a fun name.
>>506
What was the best restaurant you have ever eaten at, and what did you have?
>>505
Probably this place "Cava turacciolo" in Italy. http://www.cavaturacciolo.it/home.jsp
I barely remember what I had, except that it was multiple courses. I think fresh lake fish was part of it. Of course there was plenty of fancy cheese to go with all the different wines. The combination of chocolate with a dessert wine was particularly delicious. I probably tasted about 10 different wines that night. Good thing I wasn't paying for it.
>>507
What's the most expensive thing you regret paying for?
>>509
Molesting my girlfriend in her sleep, only to discover she was actually awake. Not knowing she had actually been awake for the past half hour, I panicked and pretended to be asleep, which in retrospect was probably the dumbest thing to do, since she got (justifiably) upset at me for lying about it, though fortunately she forgave me quickly since it was one of her secret fetishes. I never forgave myself though.
>>511
What's your most successful sexual accident?
>>510
Sitting down for on an unlubed anal dildo (first one I had used ever). No pain or tearing was involved.
>>512
Would people be more interested in science if there were internationally binding legislation to express all measurements exclusively in scientific (exponential) notation using SI base units?
>>511
I think people would strongly resist such legislation. Assuming people did accept it though, I doubt it would change people's interests. People are forced to learn how to do all sorts of things in school, but it doesn't make them any more interested in those subjects.
Also, I like the idea but it doesn't make much sense for small numbers. Just imagine speed limit signs with figures like 2.0~10^1m/s.
>>513
What interests of yours have changed since you were a kid?
I am jap.
There is a question about me.
When it makes cup noodles with hot water of 300 degrees, how long is it suitable to wait?
>>516
Well, that's a pretty complex question, really. It depends on a huge number of factors - the type of noodles, the volume of the container, the mass of hot water, the temperature (300 Farenheit? Celsius? Kelvin?), air pressure, wind speed, gravity, acceleration, whether the month has an "r" in it or not... I can't really help you unless you give me more information to go on.
>>515
This one time I fell off a bunk bed in the middle of the night, onto a concrete floor, fracturing my wrist. The place my family and I were staying at was pretty much the middle of nowhere; miles away from any kind of inhabitation, and tens of miles away from the nearest hospital. So yeah, that sucked.
>>518
How many hours do you usually sleep per night?
>>518
Very interesting... I haven't read any philosophy on it at all. I suppose it's the thing that clocks, journals, and memories make, isn't it? Hmm...
>>520
What philosophers / works of philosophy should I introduce to my female friend who's somewhat ignorant about the field? She said she'd read some, but I think she was just saying that to be nice... Out of what I've found most enjoyable, easiest to read, and most interesting, I was thinking of lending to her:
I felt the need to mention her gender because I feel women are not as inclined towards philosophy as men. I'm also worried that these may be too many books, but she's a shut-in, so it's not like she has much better to do... Well, if there are any I should take out, replace, or add to that list, I'd really appreciate your input.
>>519
Just suggest one at first, or she probably will not read any of them. Pick the one you want her to read most, and if she actually gets into it, you can go from there. Just beware that the average person, regardless of gender, do not really want to put in the energy to read works of philosophy.
>>521
How often and how thoroughly do you clean?
>>517
300 degrees centigrade. The capacity is "nissin cup noodle". The pressure that the pressure can make hot water of 300 degrees centigrade.
<(_ _)>
>>524
Because I feel hungry and have eaten, I cannot measure it anymore.
I thank for your past cooperation.
Thank you.
>>522
Hmm. Will you get water at all when you open the tap? At normal ambient temperature and pressure, at 300 degrees C. you would get what the engineering textbooks call "superheated steam."
This seems quite a dangerous way to prepare cup ramen. You could be scalded and badly burned. Have you considered boiling some water in a metal pan instead?
Is there not any good method to shorten the waiting time of cup noodles?
>>533
It is great!
Should a thing to use to do it not be lard or margarine?
>>541
I remember about three dreams in a year, and usually not in full. In my most recent dream, I was somehow transformed into a little girl with time travel powers and I abducted a friend of mine and we went on a jouney or adventure of some kind. I don't remember what exactly the adventure entailed, but I do remember hitting on my friend several times.
>>543
Have you ever 1CC'd any Touhou games?
>>543
I had no idea so I took this quiz: http://psychcentral.com/quizzes/narcissistic.htm
Your Total: 14
Between 12 and 15 is average.
Authority: 2.00
Self-Sufficiency: 2.00
Superiority: 3.00
Exhibitionism: 2.00
Exploitativeness: 2.00
Vanity: 0.00
Entitlement: 3.00
So apparently I'm average but slightly entitled and superior.
>>545
How do I get the tabs in Firefox to extend ALL the way to the top?
>>544
Go into userChrome.css and mess around with the properties of tabbrowser-tab
. Try something like height: 40px !important
You might also want to mess around with min-height
, max-height
, margin
and padding
to suit your needs.
>>546
If you could hang out with any one person--fact or fiction, dead or alive--for a day, who would it be?
>>546
I can't say I have a specific system of morals or ethics. I find them to be a very subjective thing, and one that is often constantly evolving. My own morals and ethics are derived from the previously conceived concepts of others (those I primarily agree with). To follow any one particular system feels slightly dogmatic, and to me leaves a lot open for corruption. Though, overall the ideas that pertain to morals and ethics remain a complicated thing to consider and I argue I can't really come to anything conclusive in regards to them, only act on what I feel is right.
>>548
Should I bother getting Guild Wars 2?
>>545
Thank you kindly, "height: 24px !important;" did the trick for me.
>>550
You don't. Just go with the flow, rebuilding and repairing when you need to.
>>552
What are your results when you take the isidewith test? (http://www.isidewith.com/)
What should I do to study an English reading and writing conversation?
>>553
Thank you, I still read and write by an automatic translation today.
I want to acquire the sense of words like natives early.
At first I study from grammar!
>>563 That's not a question. I do know of a fat asian lass with big titties but I can't remember her name. You've probably seen her anyway I bet.
>>566
What question(s) appearing in this thread so far have you particularly liked?
>>568
"Mom, Dad, meet my girlfriend. She's ten years older than me."
or some variation of that...
Alternatively, you could just not tell them. They would be faced with the prospect of rudely asking her age, and when they do, your older and wiser girlfriend might be able to handle the situation better. If wisdom is actually a direct function of age.
>>570
Is wisdom a function of age, and if so, what is the function?
>>569
It might very well be. This sounds like a problem in psychohistory, but I can take a crack at it. For a = honesty, b = dishonesty, c = hardships, d = morale, e = kindness, the function might look something like this (taking all values as nonnegative integers): f(x) = [cd(ax + e)]/b
Now we need some sort of "wisdom scale" by which to judge the results.
>>571
What was the last thing/event you really enjoyed?
Every time I answered a question another one appeared! But whatever, I'm posting anyway!
>>572
I use the mnemonic "example given" for e.g. and "in explanation" for i.e. However, I see no reason to use them unless you're trying to sound scholarly. The phrases "for example" and "such as" are more natural, and less disruptive of sentence flow.
>>573
No. Standards are arbitrary, languages evolve, and there will always be a divide between the language of commoners and that of more learned individuals.
>>574
I don't.
>>576
Who do you play in Dota2?

(M₯Φ₯L)U Yes, comrade! Next week, the imperialists pigs will surely suffer their greatest downfall!
>>578
If I told you that I really enjoy playing Sleeping Dogs, Saints Row 2 and GTA IV, which other PS3 releases would you recommend to me? (Because of the mods available, I suspect Saints Row the Third would be better enjoyed on PC.)
Oh, bother.
>>577
Probably the one that starts "I wandered lonely as a cloud", which was one of the first things my Japanese teacher at Sheffield had us translate back into the original language.

I think they are a great idea, and a vast improvement over forced registration boards and social networking. I love the idea that people are judged on their words and ideas over their identities. However, there are problems, such as lack of a diverse userbase and simplistic content filtering.
>>582
Can you think of a better content organization and filtering system than our current thread/post/sage system? (And one that's not moderation or a voting system)
>>581
A thread hide/subscribe feature, sage by default (and renaming it to be a "don't bump" feature), text art detection, and better RSS (or API access) would all be good incremental improvements to this existing system and have been proven successes on other boards.
>>583
What if I told you I used to be Cowboy Curtis?
>>583
I'd do a quick google search, find nothing on the first page of results, look back at your question, and frown after rereading the second clause, realizing that you apparently won some competition featured in a game, not an actual game competition. Desperate for clarification, I would tab back to the search results, see this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yoN0mgxR1M and stop watching after two and a half minutes, thinking it's probably completely unrelated. Then I'd give up and stop caring, smile politely and say "good for you".
>>585
What should I do with my life?
>>586
I've always liked crisps plain. Not even ready salted, but as plain as they can be. I live near a crisp factory, and as children my friends and I used to sneak in and steal crisps. I sometimes snagged plain ones before they were sent off to be salted. Then when I grew up and stopped stealing from an honest company like Walkers, they introduced those Salt & Shake crisps, and I just wouldn't put any salt in.
If I had to answer your question though, tomato sauce or ice cream (both are nice, try it). For Doritos, it's those hot salsa dips they make. Those are delicious.
>>588
What is the biggest thing you have ever stolen?
>>590
Normally I'd report this as spam, but these channels actually seem to work, so ... thanks, I guess? Still, you didn't ask a question, and thus broke this rather big thread.
Instead I'll just report my score on >>544's narcissism test:
Total score: 4
Authority: 0.00
Self-Sufficiency: 1.00
Superiority: 3.00
Exhibitionism: 0.00
Exploitativeness: 0.00
Vanity: 0.00
Entitlement: 0.00

What forum/site do you most frequently post to, and is there another forum you just prefer to read frequently without posting anything?
Hello!
I grow the bowels for constipation, and, please teach how to make of a laxative having heavy body.
