jacki3 As long as you don't make copies and sell them for money that's not piracy. A copy of a painting is not considered piracy, as long as you don't defraud anybody by selling it as the real one. TV shows taped are fine as long as you don't distribute copies and...

jacki3 Loving or being attracted to someone is definitely not wrong, unless you act on it. I'm sorry, I don't get the part about exemptions. Are you saying that because the two of you are in love, you can pursue a relationship even though he's married or committed to...

In our house we keep them and gather them together and when they are many enough we send them to our relatives in the province. We keep them so that we can give it to them because we know that they still can make use of it and it...

jacki3 He's 19, considered an adult so it won't be cradle snatching at all. And it's legal! If it's just crush, it'll pass. If you confront it right now, you'll probably ruin the friendship. Don't avoid him, just be normal. If he asks how you feel about him, tell him...

jacki3 It wasn't a big shocker actually. I knew Snape had his reasons for helping Dumbledore and Harry. I just didn't know that Dumby would resort to blackmail. I don't like book 7, it's too "nothing". It just answered the questions, and finished the series. It...

jacki3 What's more important? Your friend or money? Since she can't be considered a friend because she's just using you, then choose money. Girl, don't stress yourself with guilt. You can choose to ignore her and hope that she never sends you another message again;...
