Should I buy FIFA 12??
Playing it at a friend's house has sort of ignited an interest for me. I have never followed football at all, never been to a game, looked at game results or anything. I know which team won the last 2 or 3 world cups. That's it. I used to get CoD rage really bad when I was a few years younger. I'm 15 now. Should I buy it? Is it really bad for rage when you lose? I've heard it makes people kick off haha
6 AnswersVideo & Online Games9 years agoI want to be really muscular?
I've got the right frame, 15 years old, 6 foot. Do you have any hints for how to gain bigger muscles all over my body? Which exercises are best for building muscle? I can't do bench press as I genuinely have nowhere to do it. What intensity should my exercises be and how many repetitions should I do? How many sets of these repetitions and how many sessions? I am interested in gaining muscle, NOT LOSING FAT/WEIGHT. While you're here, what steps could I take to begin a sport or something? I don't do any organised exercise. The only one that genuinely interests me is swimming and the nearest pool is 3-5 miles away. If I walked/biked I would be too tired to swim by the time I got there! And probably dead by the time I got back. Thanks it's massively appreciated.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
Do NOT promote or advise me to take any supplements, steroids, performance-enhancing drugs, or protein shakes. I won't be allowed protein shakes and I'm not taking drugs. No way.
5 AnswersDiet & Fitness9 years agoWhy is society so sensitive about referencing Islam/Muslims?
For a start off, this is in no way at all disrespectful to Muslims. If you think that then you are overly sensitive and exactly what this question is referring to so keep any and all accusations to yourselves please. Thank you. Now, I think that the media's portrayal of Muslim fundamentalist activity is heavily emphasised and this leads everybody to think that they have to be tip-toed around. I have Muslim relatives and they aren't terrorists or honour-killers. Normal people who are sick of the pussyfooting and mollycoddling around the subject. The whole reason for this sensitivity is to counteract racism and inequality (in order to prevent Islamic fundamentalists creating trouble) but all it does is create a society where one ethnicity has to be careful around another. Surely that isn't what equality is about. Even making reference to the religion is held under a microscope and analysed to ensure that it can't possibly be perceived as offensive. I guarantee that this question will be looked at by somebody to ensure that it isn't offensive. I want anybody who finds this remotely offensive and/or racist to say so in an answer to the question please just to help me prove a point. Greatly appreciated.
13 AnswersReligion & Spirituality9 years agoI'm academically brilliant but...?
I am an utter moron. I lack competence in almost any practical situation, which is strange considering how I've had anything but a 'sheltered' childhood. Have any of you got any tips on how to become more intuitive, sensitive to situations and to gain initiative? I'm 15 and I'll be getting a job when I'm 16 if it's possible but I just need to become a bit more conscious of what's going on around me. Is it just a case of growing up? I'm mature, but probably not all the way there. Thanks :)
2 AnswersPsychology9 years agoWhat clothes are smart and attractive on men? Girls I need advice?
Hey! I need fashion advice. Girls what looks good on a guy? For a start I don't like chinos. I just think they look ridiculous. I like jeans. You probably need to know a bit about my body shape really. I am 6 foot tall, 15 years old and pretty muscular. Well-built. Not fat. Will you tell me what kind of clothes are attractive? I'm looking at under £100 for 2-3 outfits if possible so not outrageously expensive. I'm getting £100 in summer to get clothes anyway. Thanks a lot, feel free to put links to online stores etc. I'm looking at shirts, trousers, shoes and hats. GO! :) thanks so much.

3 AnswersDiet & Fitness9 years agoI have decent muscles but they're not very hard?
Hi, for a start, I'm 15, does that have anything to do with this? I'm 6 foot and fairly developed, but not all the way there yet.
I work out quite often, but I don't go to the gym or anything serious, I just work out at home with press ups and weights etc. I do squats, curls and overhead lifts. When I flex, I have ok biceps, but on the greater scale, they're fairly pathetic. There's a little bit of fat but I can feel the muscle. It is fairly soft and I want to get the muscles rock-hard. What is the best way to do this? Specific exercises or diet tweaks if possible please. Thanks a lot :)
1 AnswerDiet & Fitness9 years agoStrange Question; Is masturbation good exercise?
Haha, okay strange question really... I'm wondering whether, for example, an hour of masturbation is good exercise. I'm not relating this to myself, jesus that's be pretty wrong but is it a healthy exercise because I've heard it burns a lot of calories- or is that a load of rubbish? Is it different for men and women? Don't judge me I'm curious hahahahaa
3 AnswersDiet & Fitness9 years agoHow to train obliques effectively?
Just trying to get fit, obliques are your sides. I've got shocking love handles but not too fat anywhere else it's weird. Cardio will get rid of the fat but I think that the lines that ripped guys have where it's like their legs just plug in to their abdomens looks awesome so I want well trained obliques. Any hints guys? Much appreciated :)
1 AnswerDiet & Fitness9 years agoPlease will you rate my exercise and diet plan. I'm trying to get sexay ;)?

Workout:
Monday: Whole body workout- Overhead lifts, Bicep Curls, Press ups, Squats, and various core workouts x2 sets in the day

Wednesday: Whole body, same as monday
Thursday: Rest, same as tuesday

1 AnswerDiet & Fitness9 years agoYour opinions on 9/11?
Mine is that they nuked Japan twice, and the first one alone killed 66,000 people. 9/11 killed 3000 approximately. I'm at a complete loss as to why it is so terrible. Also, in 9/11, people fell out of the building, or died in the plane's impact zone pretty immediately. In Japan, the people in the proximity MELTED slowly. Their skin draped from their bodies like sheets of warm rubber. Think about this next time your patriotism kicks in Americans. Hypocricy.

14 AnswersPolls & Surveys9 years agoNeed help with region codes on DS and Gameboy- Do American games work on English DS's?
Hi, thanks for taking the time :) I AM IN THE UK
Okay, I bought 2 pokemon games for the gameboy advance from eBay, but I completed the transaction on my iPhone, but when I checked on the computer, it says that the games are on the NTSC region code for America. My DS which is PAL, which I intend to play it on. Will the NTSC games work on PAL DS? I need to know whether I need to send them back or not. I read on several sites that Gameboy games are not regional, but if the game isn't, is the DS? They are both Nintendo handhelds after all. Thanks a lot, I appreciate your time :)
2 AnswersVideo & Online Games9 years agoMy prediction for the next stage in the UK's decline?
Well, so much effort and money is going into the Olympics that all of the visiting tourists will flood in and even migrate to live here because of the false image that we'll put across. Then, the amount of people in the country will rise and put an increased strain on the economy, resulting eventually in less jobs, and due to increased population, this means higher unemployment rates. That results in more crime because of less money per person and boredom from not having jobs. This will plunge the whole country into chaos. I don't even care, I'm approaching 15 and I already see the mess that we've made of the world. We've already messed up and we're probably beyond redemption so everybody go get high. k?
8 AnswersOther - United Kingdom9 years agoCan wearing tighter boxers do any bad to your health etc.?
Hi, I'm about to turn 15, so I'm still going through 'all that'. I bought some boxers, because my old ones were massive and the boys kept leaving the barracks (if you follow)... They're tighter and carry everything. They don't squeeze, they just keep everything in place. Can wearing tighter boxers do any damage? I heard that wearing tight jeans sometimes causes complications because not enough air gets to the equipment or something. I'm a lad by the way.
5 AnswersMen's Health9 years agoShould I feel like this about my work experience (award for weirdest question goes to...)?
Okay, so that question sound really weird, and perhaps pretty creepy. Basically, my work experience is working for the local council, gardening, and general maintenance of the borough. My Dad works for them, and it doesn't pay well. It's quite a poor job really, and he's said so himself. I am really excited about working there to get an insight, and I think I'll really enjoy it simply because of what it is. The problem is, I am worried that if I enjoy it too much I might want to get a job like that, which sounds great because I would be doing what I enjoy, but I don't want that job. Council workers (who also empty the bins), kind of seem quite low down the social scale, and not to sound vile; deadbeats. I know this isn't true but bin men always get that fallacy. My only problem is that I can do so much better, and people will be disappointed if I get a job like that. I don't want to sound like a snob, but I get great grades at school. I'd be disappointing people but I think that if that does happen, I will be proud of having such a good work ethic, because I seriously don't agree with paper-shufflers getting paid so much, it doesn't seem right. What should I do?
Binman= Enjoyable job (possibly), but judged as a failure.
Paper-Shuffler= Disappointed in myself, poor work ethic, no pride, but no judgements.
3 AnswersYahoo Answers9 years agoSweaty and sometimes smelly groin lately :/ (sorry)?
sorry about the... intimacy of the question but... In the last few days I have had sweaty balls and they have smelt a little bit, not much. Basically, I have had an awkward itch around my balls for a while, but never smelt before. It's really embarassing and it's happening because the weather's a bit warmer. Just getting sweaty and it's annoying. Can anyone tell me what to do about it? By the way I know talcum powder might do the job but how do I put it on? Stupid question but how much and do I rinse it off afterwards? I haven't used it before so I might seem stupid.
