  • Names of Pagans who fought against Christianity?

    My sister is pregnant, and expecting a boy. She promised me that she would let me choose her child's middle name, so, I decided that I would choose the name of someone who fought against Christianity.

    So, I need the name of a Pagan leader or King etc (a European one, preferably Germanic, Celtic or Scandinavian) who battled against Christians.

  • (Serious) Girlfriend issues?

    I will give a little bit of background first. Months ago, my girlfriend and I got into an argument. The argument was about me not wanting her to go to a party that was in a dangerous neighborhood, for her own safety. She got angry because she thought I didn't trust her, then she went to the party, got drunk and cheated on me (and her car got stolen...because as I had warned her, the party was in a bad neighborhood).

    I came to pick her friends and her up and drive them home, and during the ride home she let it slip that she cheated on me, so I kicked her out of the car a few blocks away from her house. I ignored her calls and attempts to reach me for a few days, then found out she had attempted suicide. I met her at the hospital and decided to give her a second chance.

    Recently at every possible chance, she has accused me of cheating on her. If I don’t pick up my phone at 2 in the morning, she thinks I'm cheating on her. If I say I'm hanging out with my friends, she thinks I'm cheating on her...ect

    Fast forward to two days ago.

    She was at my house approached me with pictures someone sent her of a guy that looked sort of like me making out with one of her best friends, and accused me of cheating on her.

    I said "you're being paranoid again".

    At the time I was outside on a ladder cleaning the gutters, and as I was climbing down, as soon as I said those words, she closed her eyes and threw her phone at me, hitting me in the eye. As a natural reaction to getting hit in the face I reached both my hands up and...you guessed it, I fell off the ladder.

    Somehow I managed to get away with only a few scratches. As I fell I heard her say "Oh my God", so I'm pretty sure she didn't intend for me to fall, and even when I was on the ground she kept saying "Oh my God, oh my God, please be ok, please be ok".

    I locked myself inside my house and she knocked on the door a few times, started crying and just drove home.

    She has continued to send me texts and tried calling me, and I have yet to respond. She sent me a text explaining that she went on facebook and found pictures of her best friend and that guy that looked like me, and found out it wasn’t me (obviously), and now I'm sure she feels even worse about what happened. What the hell am I supposed to do here? I'm pretty sure her paranoia about me cheating on her is a direct result of her guilt over cheating on me. I DO NOT want her to try and kill herself again, but I'm still really angry with her...what do, yahoo? what do?

  • Do I have Tequila immunity?

    It's Cinco de Mayo, and being in a neighborhood full o' Mexican-Americans, I have been attending some backyard BB-Q's all throughout the day. My neighbors family was kind enough to give me a bottle of tequila as a gift. Look, I'm not trying to boast here, but I have had a little under half a bottle of tequila (750 ml) in the last two hours and...I'm not drunk...not even buzzed...It's like this is some sick joke, and I've been drinking some kind of fiery-piss-water for the last two hours. The bottle says it's 80 proof.

    Am I...immune to the stuff?

    Does it just take a more time to kick in?

    Should I drink more?

    Oh, and happy Cinco de Mayo to you!

  • Got angry at girlfriend after she cheated on me, and she attempted suicide?

    Let me start out by saying that she is still alive, and in the hospital. And I have yet to visit her.

    This all started we got into an argument about her going to a party in a bad neighborhood without me, and I told her that I would really prefer she didn’t go for her own safety. I have had bad experiences in that neighborhood, and have even had a gun pulled on me there. She misinterpreted my warnings as me saying "I don’t trust you to go to a party without me". She went to the party, got drunk, and cheated on me. As I had warned her, she was even mugged on the way back to her car. They guy tried to steal her car, but she threw her keys and ran. She called me from her friends phone and I had to pick them all up at 4 am. (the guy must have found her keys, because her car was stolen later that day).

    During the ride home, we got into an argument after I said "I told you so", and she let it slip that she cheated on me. I told her that after I dropped her off, I never wanted to see her again, and that’s when she threatened to kill herself. As soon as she said that, I told her to get out (she was only a block away from her house). So, a few days later I got a call from one of her friends saying that that she was in the hospital after attempting suicide. I don’t think its a good idea to visit her right now.

    Now I’m not sure what to do.

    We are both 22, and I was her first date, boyfriend, lover etc, and I think she is way too attached because of that. I can't say I want to get back with her, but I haven’t officially broken up with her, and I don’t even know how to go about it. Was what I did wrong? Did I overreact? What should I do?

  • My girlfriend shaved her head (edit)?

    4 weeks ago I donated my my hair to help make cancer patients wigs, and my girlfriend and I had talked about this. I said I wouldn't do if she thought I would look ugly with short hair. She said she thought I would look good with a buzz cut (and I do) and said it was sweet of me. But two weeks ago she decided to donate her hair as well! And not just getting a short haircut, but she got A BUZZ CUT!!!! She looks like a boy and im not exaggerating, but I never noticed how much she looks like a 16 year old boy. I am literally repulsed by her now and have no physical attraction to her what so ever. Now READ CAREFULLY ... I am going to stay with her because I love her, BUT appearances do matter when I cant get aroused during sex.

    I don't want to tell her I cant get aroused now because because I don't want her to think its her fault, after all she made a very very brave decision that will hopefully help a child feel better.

    But how can I feel more attracted to her?

  • Pro-Life and other violent displays?

    Is it just me or does anyone else find it strange that pro life demonstrations can post pictures of mutilated fetuses or babies IN PUBLIC, in plain view of any child passing by, but for some reason If someone were to support...oh say nudism, and as part of their display had a picture of a perfectly healthy naked person (or even a topless woman) with nothing sexually explicit about it...that would be illegal ....now I don't mean to target pro life specifically, but anyone images depicting graphic wounds or violence...how is this allowed?

  • I think my girlfriend is testing me?

    My girlfriend keeps making these drastic changes to her appearance, and im pretty sure she knows I hate it. For example she asked me what I thought about short hair, I told her I disliked it...and the next day she chopped it off to a few inches above her shoulders. She asked me what I thought about black hair, and I said I preferred fair hair...so the next week she dyed it. She seems to find out my opinion about something then do the opposite...is she mad at me or something?

  • Lighten my hair slowly?

    My hair is reddish brown. I don't want to dye my hair but I do want to have it be lighter and more red, so I was wondering if their was a shampoo or something that would slightly lighten my hair every time I used it? Or a product that lightened it or made it more red over time?

  • Just found out my girlfriend is trying to change my style?

    We have been together for a while, and I just found out from one of her friends that she is trying to "style" me. I will admit Im a fairly cliche metalhead, I sport long hair, snug fitting band shirts and pants and some classic vans etc.

    A while back my girlfriend showed my a picture of the lead singer from Bring me the Horizon and basically begged me to cut and die my hair like his (I will never dye my beautiful ginger kid hair!!!). Now I like my clothing on the snugger side, but I swear she is buying me clothing from the kids department!!! And probably the worst offense yet, she asked me to get snake bite piercings....by now you should realize that she wants me to be a scene kid.

    Now im going to share my feelings with you....and if I lose "metal macho man points" for that then so be it. Im not angry that she wants me to change, I feel that she settled for me when she was really attracted to a different kid of person.

    How do I deal with this?

  • Is anyone other than metalhead girls into metalhead guys?

    I always wondered if girls who weren't fans of metal, were into metalhead guys? I don't just mean guys who listen to the music, but whom also dress in band shirts, have long hair etc

  • What the hell is wrong with my brother?

    Ok before I explain what he does currently, here's a little back story.

    My younger brother (now a sophomore in high school) was a social outcast,and for years had no friends. A few months ago he thought he was home alone one day and got out of the shower naked, AND was also "dancing" to one of the songs on his mp3. He didn't see that our sister and her friends were over and for a good few seconds they watched him dance naked. Now apparently he got made fun of in school for it. For a while he was suicidal, but he got therapy and seems to be doing better, he even has a few friends through some japanese cartoon club at school.

    Ever since he had started therapy, he sometimes walks around naked (even when our parents are home). Now don't get me wrong, he doesn't flaunt his nakedness, just walks from the bathroom to his room naked, or at most grabs something to drink from the kitchen. He doesn't do it when guests are over, and it doesn't seem sexual. Our mom spoke to the therapist about it and she said that he may just be learning to accept his body, and become less embarrassed of it. And truth be told, he really does appear to have much more confidence.

    It doesn't bother anyone in the family to see him naked, because he doesn't linger for very long or start conversations or anything...my only concern is that it may lead to other psychological problems...anyone have any thoughts or advice?

  • How to help my depressed brother?

    This is the situation. I came home from school for winter break and I noticed my little brother (a high school freshman) moping around more than usual so I asked our mom what was up, I found out that one day my sister (a high school junior) had some of her friends over, and my little brother was listening to his ipod and dint notice my sister and her friends (she said there were like 5 of them). Well my brother has a nasty habit of dancing horribly to music, he is very embarrassed by it and if anyone sees him dancing and he sees them looking at him he will stop and deny that he was even dancing.

    Well as im sure you have guessed, he didn't notice our sister and her friends and danced for a good half minute (according to my sister) in front of them....but the part you probably didn't guess was that he thought he was home alone and had just come out of the shower...that's right, he was dancing naked and apparently he couldn't hear them laughing because his ipod was turned up too loud. I will admit that envisioning this makes me laugh, and if he wasn't my brother I would probably tease him about it.

    I just don't know what to do for the kid, he has it hard enough as it is. He is overweight, has acne problems, is short for his age and isn't good looking and literally has no friends, and has yet to have a conversation with a girl other than in the family, the list could go on. He has been made fun of in school for this incident and has already missed multiple days for fear of ridicule and spends all day in his room watching japanese cartoons.

    Anyway I don't really know what to do to help the kid, I can hear him crying in his room from time to time, anyone have any ideas?

  • Killing a mugger in self defence?

    Here is the hypothetical situation. A guy and his friend are out having a walk in an wealthy area with some great nightlife late on a saturday night, the party has died down and many drunks are going home for the night. A thug from a town over thought that this would be a great area to mug people, but rather than finding a wealthy couple walking out of a bar, he mistakes two sober middle class young men just taking a stroll for to drunks looking for their car. After approaching the two men the mugger demands money and anything else they have of value, and bluffs that he has a gun. One of the men distracts the mugger and stabs the lowlife in the neck, leading to an agonizing death for our antagonist. The boys run but call the police when the return home. Now my question is what charges would the boys face? (ps sorry for turing the question into a short story, but the smell of turkey strikes up my creative juices) Remember the mugger is unarmed, and there were no witnesses other than the two boys.
