A girl I know said to me in Portuguese "Se você me trouxer sorvete agora eu te pego a noite toda 🤪😜". Which rougly translates to "If you bring me ice cream I ll catch you all night". Am I translating this correctly because I don t know what that means. I could ask her, but I don t want to seem ignorant of what she is saying haha

Of course there are some arguments here, but the idea could easily be regulated. I'm also not 100% advocating the idea of an absolute democracy, because in many cases the minority could be unfairly represented, and concessions could be made to fix problems like that. But for the most part, an absolute democracy has been argued against because it seemed impractical to call for vote from millions upon millions of people. But with the evolution of the internet, not only would voter turnout be tremendously higher, but much simpler. Again, to keep scandals from arising, it would have to be heavily regulated and observed, but the idea in theory is relatively good.

I am writing a story about a young man whose girlfriend dies the day he proposes to her. I have made it clear to the audience that she has pretty bad asthma. Originally, her death was from an asthma attack while she is in the shower, and the main character comes home to her devastated.

But, I also had another idea, but it seems a little overdramatic and graphic, also a little cliched. When he decides to propose to her, out of excitement she has her asthma attack. The main character promised to get her prescription from his way to work, but he forgot. So this adds more conflict because it makes him feel responsible for her death.

I feel like the second one would give more of a powerful message, but the first one seems more audience friendly and I also didn't really want to have her death appear on screen. But I thought I should ask and see what people thought.

This is the message I sent her:

I've been thinking lately. It feels like we're going into one of our conversation comas again, or it may just be that you've been travelling a lot recently and such. Regardless, we haven't seen each other in almost a year now, you're going to be across the freaking world for who knows how long, I don't even know any of your good friends, and hardly feel like I'm one of them. I'm really scared to tell you, and it sounds stupid to me, but I like you a lot, and have for a while, well, off and on anyways. Now every once in a while I see you with some new European guys and I get just a little jealous, and Brad only makes it worse because he tells me how ridiculous I am and any time you're with a guy in a picture he feels the need to put me down on the subject, plus on top of all this I have always felt you were out of my league. But I wanted to tell you, because I don't like keeping it to myself, and I don't know how you feel about me, and I'm tired of not knowing.

This is what she sent back:

Yeah I'm sorry I have been so busy with my travels, I'm trying not to slip into a convo coma. But I'm officially back in Swizzyland. I don't know what to say because it is hard since I am halfway across the world. But please don't regret telling me! And please don't be scared. I'm really glad you told me because I like to be honest and I know it takes a lot of nerve to get something like that off your chest. Please don't feel stupid for telling me. I do like you too, I think we have really good conversations with each other, which is more than I can say for most guys I meet. Side note, please don't judge me based on pictures you see on Facebook, especially ones with guys. I'm having fun here, but please don't think I'm a slut! Also, that's kind of the problem. I am having fun here and I like being... Free? Idk. Like I'm not ready to be tied down to anybody, you know? And, like you said, i am on the other side of the world, which makes this conversation tough. Regardless, please don't listen to Brad and I am by no means out of your league. I am a mess. I'm so glad you didn't keep this to yourself, but I think, right now at least, that we should just continue to be friends. How do you feel about that?

There is this girl I know, and we talk all the time. But haven't seen each other in person for a while now. We went on a few dates a while back and I heard from one of her friends that she used to talk about me a lot, and that she used to like me a lot too. I didn't know that then, and I don't want it to be too late so I wanted to tell her how much I care.

This is what I am thinking about saying to her:

I really like you Amy, and I have for a long time. I think about you a lot, and every time I get to talk to I feel excited that I get to. I have never really met any of your good friends and we haven't seen each other in a an awful long time, and now you're thousands of miles away making new friends and having new experiences while I'm stuck here in Hickville, USA. Every once in a while I see you with some good looking European guy on Facebook or something, and to be honest I get a little jealous. I'm really scared about telling you this because I'm worried you won't feel the same way about me at all and I don't want there to be this awkwardness between us. I just wish I had any sort of confidence to tell you how beautiful you are, and that I think you deserve to be treated better sometimes. I don't know what you really think about me, and don't know what you'll be thinking when you read this. I was just going to wait until you got back from studying abroad, but I just have been wanting to say this for so long and didn't want to miss my chance if there still is one.

If you don't want to read the backstory you can skip down.*

I have been talking to this girl for almost a year now, we went on two dates together (both of which she went out of her way to pick me up, I have since told her I'll make up for it), but we haven't seen each other in person for almost eight months, but have kept frequent conversation since then. I just learned that she used to like me from one of her friends, but I didn't know it. It is almost a since we met and now she is travelling abroad until mid December. We have already set up a movie night and a dinner when she gets back. It's been a week since we have talked though and she is constantly travelling and I'm ashamed to say I get jealous seeing her with all these European guys. I feel like we're grown closer in the last couple weeks and have been more open, but I really want to see if she likes me enough to...idk I don't want to ask her to "wait for me" but I want to know if I have a chance anymore. So this is what I plan to say. (probably through a skype call)

*I don't know if this is the best time to tell you, but I feel like I should have said something a long time ago. I've really liked you ever since we started talking as friends, and I wanted to know if you felt the same way. I think you're incredibly pretty and I miss having dinner with you and wished we would have had them more often. Yeah, you're halfway across the world and I'm stuck here for now, but I don't want to miss a chance if I have one."

BQ: What would you think someone you used to like said this?

BQ: Should I just suck it up and wait?

I work at McDonald's. And I absolutely hate it. I just got hired at K-Mart and I will be making a dollar more there than I am now. I need to quit my job, but I really like the people I work with and don't want to be a jerk. I can't go in for the shifts I have this weekend because I have orientation and K-Mart. How can I quit my job without being a douche?

I have only been working at my current job for about two weeks. It is fast food and I have started to realize I hate it so much. I have a new job in the works and I know I'm going to have to quit my current one but I don't know how, and I am afraid I will feel like a jerk considering I've only work about 4 full shifts, and the rest of the time I was only watching training videos.

My mother's ex husband goes to the same community college as me. He just beat my mother and now both her and I will be getting restraining orders against him so what will he have to do if this happens?

I am looking for a sad movie, it sounds weird I suppose. But this girl I like and I both love movies, good movies. And I am trying to find a good tearjerker for us to watch that doesn't suck and that we haven't seen. So, any suggestions?

My parents are disputing over this. They first thought yes, but now my mother called their insurance company and said no, but my step father says when he spoke with them they said it would. So does anyone know anything about this, or is it a company based problem? And do you have any recent experience that shows otherwise.

Why? I wasn't cheating? I wanted a peer review of my essay to see if anyone could see something I may have done wrong, and it was flagged and removed? But why??

Through most of 2007, television shows and radio broadcasts on numerous major cable networks and airways were either cancelled entirely or cut short until the strike ended and the writers received the demands they asked for.

About a year ago, this girl and I used to, what I would call, date. We went out for a few dinners and bought a pumpkin together that we meant to carve but never did. Well, we stopped hanging out for a long time but still kept in touch and I recently started talking to her more. I also found out from an ex of hers (a girl actually, she is bi, but doesn't like people knowing), that she really liked me back then. Right now, she is studying abroad in Switzerland and I would really like to take another chance with her. But she won't be back until December, and then she leaves again in January till May. I have asked if we can have dinner again when she gets back in December and she said yes. But I really like her and I don't know what to do. I can wait for her, but I don't know how she will feel. Any help?

A couple months back I was planning on going to a specific college. But after already signing for my dorm began to realize it was out of my price range, but over 20,000 dollars. I had to change my mind and go to community college. I have just received an email that I'm am being charged for forfeit, and I'm going to have to pay 775$ that I cannot afford. I do not have a job and my family and I are very poor. I don't know what to do I'm freaking out right now about to collapse into a panic attack. I really can't afford this I don't know what to do!!

I think it is pretty funny. I almost want to try it haha. What do you say?

Hmmmm??

Also in olive oil if anyone knows?

I have not read the books or seen the movie. But from what I can tell the books receive far more praise than the apparently lackluster film. It really disappoints me because I took one look at the cast and immediately thought "wow, this could be really incredible". I mean come on! Daniel Craig, Ian McKellen, Christopher Lee, SAM ELLIOT!? My surprise quickly dropped when I looked up some information on the director/writer, whom had only been part of some other lackluster movies (Nutty Professor 2, Antz). So much disappointment and I haven't even read the books. I just want someone to put it into perspective for me, what went wrong with the movie exactly? Why is it as terrible as people say it is? Or do you disagree? Also how are the books in comparison?

I'm really trying to find original works that have their own universe created by the writer. Any time period will do but I really would like more contemporary settings. For instance A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones) has it's own universe of Westeros and the anime Fullmetal Alchemist has the country of Amestrys. I don't want any stories that relate to our Earth, no historical fiction, no futuristic Earth, etc..

Does anyone have any examples?
