I don't get people!

3cardmonte @3cardmonte (5098) 30 Sep 09

Do you wish you could understand people? Why they were so weird? so nasty? so nice? Why they do what they do or have done what they did? Or do you think that they have their reasons and they're not for you to know?

roadki11 There are a lot of people and behaviors that baffle me. But, there are probably a whole bunch of people who are just as baffled by me and my behavior. So, I try not to dwell.

How do you know when something is a sow's ear and not a silk purse?

DoriLentrich @DoriLentrich (1016) • United States 26 Sep 09

This is a problem I think a lot of writers face. Our pieces are often our children. As such, letting them go is difficult. How do you determine when it's hopeless? What criteria do you use when you finally throw up your hands and...

roadki11 I put it away for as long as I can. Ideally, one month. Then I read it with fresh eyes, eyes that have distance. I can see it for what it is, then.

roadki11 I met my husband on an internet dating site. I feel like he's my one, my one and only. If something happened, I'd never be able to love again. But, I also feel like nobody would ever believe that about us knowing how we met. I have to force myself to not keep...

Blu-ray movies

killer04 @killer04 (282) • Australia 25 Sep 09

Hi there. Blu-ray is a fairly new type of media, which is used to store huge quantities of media. With that, film companies are able to release movies in high definition, so you will be able to watch movies of a greater sound and...

roadki11 I've had bluray for about a year. My PS3 plays blu ray. That's why blu ray beat out HDDVD, the playstation. I don't pay extra to enable my Netflix account for blu ray. It hardly seems worth it because it's a lot more but they don't have a whole lot of their...

vivasuzi @vivasuzi (4127) • United States 24 Sep 09

Background: I write articles at a blog site where we get paid based on hits and a few other criteria. Since my category is about TV shows, I write as I watch and usually post within minutes after the show finishes. This means it...

roadki11 I left textbroker for this exact reason. The pay is about four dollars for 450 words. I got bad ratings because the textbroker editor found two typos. They rated me 3/5 for two typos in an article that garnered me $4. I ended up at helium. I made $16 for...

Evolution or creation? Tell me why...

ChaoticBeauty @ChaoticBeauty (263) • United States 23 Sep 09

Hey all, personally, I believe in creation. There cannot possibly be evidence to support both theories, and, in fact, both require a certain amount of faith. Creation requires the faith of a child, while evolution requires an...

roadki11 Evolution doesn't require any faith in your research. In fact, science requires you to constantly try to disprove your research. You have to constantly doubt it and take it apart. Many, including myself, would call that the opposite of faith. There is...

roadki11 There is going to be a fair to huge amount of risk in anything that is really worth doing. If you put all of your focus on one person to the exclusion of others, you could get seriously hurt by a betrayal. Or, that person could simply break up with you without...

roadki11 I agree with everybody here. Open minded isn't the term you want here. But that isn't truly relevant. I can help you, anyway. You shouldn't be ready to help at any times. Stop doing that. You should be your first priority. The list should be, assuming you...
