Are there any ChaCha guides left?

ctrymuziklvr @ctrymuziklvr (11057) • United States 5 Aug 10

I was one of the first ChaCha guides and for the first year or so it was great and I made some good money. Then like everything else it changed and the money wasn't so good any more it got a lot more complicated. They added so...

McG1985 I joined ChaCha back in 08 when they were still paying 20 cents per answer. I could easily make $6 - $8 an hour no sweat. Over the last couple of years they have decreased the pay and introduced new roles, so traffic is not always the best anymore. On an...

McG1985 I thought the show was pretty good. The premier episode kind of lagged in spots and I found the son to be really boring and almost not necessary in the story. One of the main reasons I watched was because I like Kay Panabaker. It's interesting to me that...

I am so bummed right now. I just went into Netflix to continue watching one of their "watch instantly" TV shows and it turns out that they've moved the majority of the once available "watch instantly" shows to their only available...

McG1985 I don't regularly take baths. I prefer to shower. But when I do take a bath, I usually use it as a relaxation time. I might shave my legs, but I never wash my hair when taking a bath.

What is that one room in your house that you dread having to clean?

megamatt @megamatt (14290) • United States 18 May 10

There is always that one room that you hope you are not stuck having to clean, that someone else does it. Of course, it is always inevitable that you are the one stuck doing it because no one else wants to clean it. For me, its...

McG1985 I absolutely dread having to clean the kitchen. Luckily it's just me, so if I let it go for a day or two, it's okay and not going to bother anyone. Something about doing dishes every day seems like a waste of time, and with no dishwasher a total pain to do...

Do you think the movie theatre is sometimes way to loud?

Rebeccarogers2010 @Rebeccarogers2010 (269) • United States 19 May 10

My mother complains that going to the movie theatre is no fun anymore because of how loud they make it. Do you think it should only be aloud a certain volume?

3 responses

McG1985 I do agree that there are some movies that when shown in a theater are way too loud. Perhaps it is because certain parts of the movie are rather soft so when it gets to the louder points the volume is up high enough to hear the softer parts that it is then too...

McG1985 I almost never plan my meal or what I'm going to eat at a certain time of day. More often then not I just make what I can pop into the microwave and heat up or eat it straight out of the box.

Do you always have three meals a day?

p3ks626 @p3ks626 (6538) • Philippines 16 May 10

Normally, people eat 3 times a day. They have breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some people only have two meals. In my case, I can consider having only 2 meals in a day cause I dont get to eat a complete meal for breakfast. I get to...

McG1985 No not really. I don't have any set meal times. Basically I eat when I get up, whenever that might be. Then a few hours later I might grab a snack or something if I remember to or if I'm hungry. As night rolls around, I might make something for dinner,...

McG1985 I hardly know my neighbors except in passing. I had a yard sale not too long ago and met a couple of my neighbors that day, but I really don't remember any of their names or anything. You'd think living in an apartment you'd get to know your neighbors, but I...

McG1985 Depending on my mood at that time, I have been known to watch tv, a movie, or listen to music while working on the computer. I've also talked on the phone and read, but those take too much thought and concentration to do often.

Bored on the Web

Hi there internet surfers!! I know internet is addictive and informative as well. I have a question for all.. What do you usually check on the net or website you like to visit if you are bored?

8 responses

McG1985 When I'm really bored I tend to drift towards sites like mylot.com and moola.com ... They're both great to pass the time and earn money as well. If neither of those sites are appealing to me, then I usually find myself going to a game website like iwon.com or...
