Don't send me a message saying a/s/l, if your that desperate to have someone to talk to, there’s always a nail and a hammer...figure it out. If for some reason you disagree with me on something I posted, personally I really don't care about what you say. Sending me hate IM/E-mail is will not change my opinions on anything but if you must waste your own time feel free, I will not respond as it would not solve anything.

  • Extremly odd tax question?

    I was thinking about creating an artificial spouse for a final project once I get into a 4 year for my senior project, personally I feel it would benefit those like me to whom which there are no mates for (asexuals) but have the basic (annoying) yearn for companionship.

    I was seriously curious, say I actually get this done, and a full working prototype, they give married people tax deductions so would I get one if I built my spouse? What if I built my kids as well?

    Yes, this is an ACTUAL question, I want ACTUAL answers, anything less with be reported.

  • Artificial Spouse Project Data Help?

    I am asexual, but for some reason I desire companionship, and come to a creative solution, I need to design or help design an artificial companion to aid me whenever I feel lonely.

    I (just about to) have my computer programming AS degree so I'd be willing to make this a final project for when I go into a 4 year. Any help would be appreciated.

    My question (especially since this is in the dating category) is that if I am actually able to finish the project on my own, I would need massive amounts of data from women (mainly their reactions to things), anyone know where a site or...something that might have something similar to what I'm asking? I know it’s a stretch but it never hurts to ask, maybe I could do a study or something.

    One last thing, this is a real question, I want real answers. If you want a violation, please put something stupid/hateful/or ignorant, I will report anything that is not an answer.

  • Back to the future question...?

    I am watching back to the future for the VERY first time tonight...funny considering I was born in 1984, and it has inspired me to ask this question, it really is a really good movie.

    If you could go back in time, and see your parents to be, what would you say? What would you do? What would you think?

  • Should I really for another degree?

    This is somewhat of a mixed question and it is most likely based on personal opinion, anyway....

    I'm about to get my 2 year Associate degree in Computer Programming, I'll have it next semester. Here is the thing, if I take 5 more classes after that I will receive some type of certificate thing for a "Web Developer", then if I take 2 god awful easy classes after that, I will receive another degree for web development and administration.

    I want to attend a 4 year as well, but until I can get Financial Aid or a good job, I will be unable to afford it.

    So what do you think I should do, stay an extra 1-2 semesters for another degree or search for jobs? Which will help more, the job certificate + the web developer development and admin degree or actual experience in the work force?

    My idea job is a programmer; I realize that’s a generic job type buy I don't really know what all my options are yet. Basically I'm asking what would help me MORE in the REAL WORLD?

  • If we were all genetically and physically alike how would we discriminate against each other?

    Sorry I was not able to complete the question due to the character limit.

    If we were all genetically and physically alike (meaning in looks and in ablities such as sports) how would we discriminate against each other? Would we still hate each other? Would their be any wars (assume that we all speak the same language)?

    The question is about your opinion, not what some web site or other person says.

  • Exporting Excel data into a MS word document?

    Ok, before you answer the question, READ ALL OF IT. I don't need or want answers such as "just cut and paste it over".

    I am currently a full time student (18 units) and a full time worker (36+ avg hours per week with 3 jobs). One of my jobs is grading computer science homework for some instructors who I took past classes with.

    I am needing to create an excel worksheet (which I have already done) as a templete for grades, then export it into a stand alone word document. I need to do it this way because I have to grade at least 75 of these every 2 weeks. I am currently not able to find sufficient information on how to do this.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Which presidents would make YOU buy a new or used car?

    Over the weekend Lincoln and Washington have been telling me that I should go for a new or used (or even certified used) car, truck, or SUV.

    Neither of these presidents make me want to buy a new car. However, if Nixon told me what a steal these cars were, Harry Truman told me about the bomb deals, or even if Clinton told me about how BIG the savings were I might consider it. What about you?

  • Is anyone else getting real tired of this myspace ****?

    Everyday, at work, at home, especially on Y answers its nothing but myspace. I turn on the TV or look at the paper and some kid that got abducted (which has been happening way before myspace came out) is on the front page, myspace gets more attention daily then when a woman shoved her baby inside a microwave and killed him.

    Hell I hate myspace so much, I helped write script to redirect myspace traffic at work, thanks to articles like this

    http://www.caller.com/ccct/local_news/article/0,16...

    "He said more than 40 percent of daily Internet traffic at the college dealt with MySpace.com."

    I just saw a story about kids getting abudcuted on myspace, its everywhere! Are people really that stupid? Do people really belive that shutting down this stupid sight will stop all evil?

    What is the big deal anyway? All myspace is the same crappy looking HTML/CSS page given to every single person with little changeable options

  • Did I just come up with the most creative idea ever??

    I was thinking, there are so many posts, ads, and such about helping starving children of Africa everywhere, but apparently we aren't doing **** since they are still starving and have been for years (I guess we don't care enough to pinpoint the problem and fix that), anyway...I thought of the most creative idea, instead of giving money to organizations that haven't solved the problem yet, we could get some huge modeling agency to start giving these starving kids modeling contracts! In America the models here are mostly anorexic looking, so at least these kids would be rich and able to buy anything they want for their families and themselfs,

    Pretty creative huh?

  • Why does my cat always do this annoying thing?

    I'm not quite sure why, and I've had a bunch of cats before this one but for some odd reason whenever I am wearing a white shirt my cat will try and jump on my stomach and start kneading me (like bread) start purring and biting me. He only does this to me, does he think I'm a female cat or something?

    Personally I think these babies are sweet, 150 dollars for a laptop isnt bad. So it doesn't come with much storage or windows, I would take a hand crack over them any day. Am I the only person that would actually want to buy one?

  • What is the sound I am hearing? Has anyone heard of anything like this?

    I've been curious about what this sound is since I was a child. I am not quite sure what I am hearing (but I am guessing EFI), but I hear a type of sound when a TV is, and yes, it can be on mute or just displaying a blank screen (more so with the old school CRT tvs, most plasmas, and some LCD TVs), the same with computer monitors (mainly CRT but some LCDs), and even some other electronics.

    What is the sound I am hearing? Keep in mind all the devices have to be on for me to hear it.

    The funny thing I am actually unable to use certain air fresheners, because they emit the same sound expect in such a high pitch it drives me crazy, it almost feels like it will make my ears bleed when i use these oddball air fresheners (that require AC power)

  • Namespace question?

    First off, this question has nothing to do with the horrid, nasty, vile myspace site.

    Well, I'm tring to find some reason to get out of doing my general ed homework currently...so I'm looking into my old computer programming book for of my classes.

    I had a question on namespaces (the language would be in C++, although I seriously doubt it would actually matter what language it is in...anyway) my book lists the "creation" of the names spaces reason as a standard way to get around the global identifier naming thing, where if I had a identifier inside a header file that had the same name as a global identifier in my program, it would generate a compiler error since the global identifiers in the header file become the global identifiers in my program (client file).

    Anyway, my question is, is this REALLY that much of a problem enough to build a function for it into the actual language itslef? I understand that if there WAS no such thing as a namespace, i would have to type the

  • Jury Duty Question?

    Ok I have a question to ask about jury duty. Now I have been called before but have always been sent home, I've been summoned again, and this time its during the testing week for most of my classes in college. I realize it would be against a law for a job to discriminate against me for searving on jury duty, but does that also mean that I my instructors would be required to give me make up exams for each day that I am forced to attend?

    I really can't fail this course since it has not been offered in 2 years and it is the last course I need to complete my major for my degree. Thanks in advance.
