Soleil05 I love horseradish, in my country you can buy it shredded in a glass jar ready to use. I love to eat it with meat, it adds a nice flavor. Also to put it on sandwiches. It sure clears the sinuses :) it's called Meerrettich in German :)

Soleil05 That's pretty sad :( It's always a risk to sell an item such as a car to a good friend... like in your situation, the car broke down and your friend is upset. However, he knew that the car hasn't been used in some time and he didn't do any maintenance on it,...

Soleil05 These seem like some simple basics that sound like common sense, however in a heated discussion or debate or even just a regular conversation these things are so easily overlooked or ignored. It seems difficult for some people to listen carefully, really...

diagnosed with cancer...what's the first thing you'll do?

jsae29 @jsae29 (1120) • Philippines 4 Aug 11

Let's say your doctor tells you that you have cancer and you only have 6 months to live. what's the first thing you'll do after leaving the clinic? Will you go to the church and pray? Will you go home and call a family meeting?...

Soleil05 That is a very tough question... I think after coming out from the doctors office, I would be in shock and pretty much not be able to do anything at first but digest the news. Then, I would try to take on this disease as best as I can and try to live as long...

What to do with a drunk person

blueangelwrites @blueangelwrites (149) • Philippines 23 Jul 11

What do I do when a person is too drunk to even hold himself up? I don't have a clue as I haven't been in this situation. He's had a lot of beer and has crashed on the sofa to sleep after trying to throw up "nothing" (sorry guys)....

crashed

drunk

scary

4 responses

Soleil05 Right now just let him sleep until he has sobered up. Do you live with that person? It can really be scary and dangerous to live with someone who gets so drunk that they don't know what they are doing.

My EQ is low

lwy519 @lwy519 (159) • China 21 Jul 11

I really think that my EQ is very low, for I am earily anger, and often out of control. I hate myself,however I do not know how to change this situation. I feel sad.

Soleil05 Can you find out what it is that sets you off and makes you feel out of control? Is it people in your life or certain situations? What are things that make you feel calm and content? Maybe you're surrounding yourself with people that cause you to feel that...

Soleil05 I assume working in a slaughterhouse must be pretty bad. Also, i don't envy anybody who has to clean portable potties. However, I believe humans are creatures of habits and can get used to many things :)

divineathena @divineathena (1746) • United States 20 Jul 11
