Let me preface this by saying that this was not a terrible movie, that I know people worked hard on it and did a good job, and that, as someone who has never made a movie, I am in no position to judge. But honestly, did anyone...

Shannonymous Oh, I don't mind the ending. I really hope they do try a Robin movie. And the one twist you mention was a good one. But the way they...let's see, how do I say this without spoiling...the way they treat Bane towards the end was downright disappointing and even...

Okay, my neices mom is constantly dying the animals hair. She buys these hair dyes that come in pink, blue and greens and they are for humans. She always dyes the animals hair when she dyes her own and it seems rather mean to me....

Shannonymous Generally, I don't think it's cruel; the animals probably don't know or care. As long as she is doing it in a gentle way, it's probably just like getting a bath for them. She should definitely not be using human dyes, though. I'm sure they make some for...

When I was 6 years old, my parents gave me the first book in then Anne series, Anne of Green Gables, for a birthday present. It was one of the first 'real' books I ever owned, besides my children's books, of course. It was the...

Shannonymous I certainly loved these books, all the way up to when Anne is an adult. Their life is so simple and endearing, you just have to root for all the characters to end up all right. It's normally not my kind of book, at all, but yes, it was a childhood favorite.

I sometimes wonder why eating a lot of delicious food would cause a lot of health problems while the opposite is true. Why is it that oftentimes the food whose taste we don't like the most are some of the healthiest food on earth?...

Shannonymous To a large extent, we consider junk food to be delicious because of our bodies' natural cravings. Your brain and body is still adapted to a time hundreds of thousands of years ago, where the most essential nutrients we needed were relatively rare, and so...

Shannonymous Couldn't agree more. You have to be a critical reader to get anything out of the typical news story. Most reputable news sources wont straight-up lie, but you have to know how to read between the lines. What statistics aren't they giving? Why are they cutting...

I work as a server in a fairly upscale restaurant, and I actually like the work quite a bit. I'm normally a bit shy around strangers, but the job encourages you to put yourself out there a little. It keeps you busy, teaches you a...

Hi myLotters! What is the latest movie you have seen? and would you recommend it to your friends? i think the latest movie I've seen is Snow White and the huntsman, but i think it's just a typical snow white movie, but the...

Shannonymous Just yesterday, I saw the Avengers. I liked it, though not as much as I thought I would. For the first half, a lot of it seemed to have plot holes or at least things that weren't fully explained. A bit slow. But of course the fight toward the end was epic, and...

Shannonymous No problem, it was a thoughtful question and deserved a likewise answer. =) Whenever something's considered "just immoral," I always try to discover the reason behind it. Morality is a human concept, not a concrete thing, so it's always interesting to learn...

I caught a tiny piece of a news report the other day and am hoping I heard it wrong. It seems that a law is in the works to require you to tell who you voted for in the presidential elections for jobs, loans, etc. Did you hear...

Shannonymous The bottom line is, no law could ever make you reveal it, because you always lie. Can a job check the record of who you voted for? No. Now, if we're talking about whether a job can *ask* who you voted for, I'm not sure if that's illegal and I don't really...

When I get back from the store, I'm planning to cook up a couple of artichokes. I've got a vague idea of what to do to make them just like mom used to, but I'm sure it will involve a lot of Howto.com and guessing. So what do you...

Shannonymous That does sound stressful. Whenever I do try blogs, I try to make them about specific topics because I'm afraid of talking about people I know. XD

Shannonymous Oh good, then I'll look forward to seeing the remake. If you're a movie fan, I'd recommend getting just the online subscription to Netflix to see this movie. It's less than 10$ a month, and that way the makers of the movie get some financial support from...

Shannonymous Interesting. I also looked into that briefly, but I never actually went through with it. As fascinating as I might find the exchange, I realized they probably wouldn't want to talk much about their crime or prison time. And beyond that, what if we had no...

Shannonymous The reason many people are outraged by incest is that it is forbidden in the Bible. That is what it is and I wont say anything about it. A secondary reason, I believe and have read, is more or less innate; we are evolutionarily programmed to seek out someone a...
