I'm an 18 year-old in the U.S. and a freshman in college. Pretty nifty.
Would wearing a gas mask this Halloween be in bad taste?
What with the shooting in Colorado and all. I live in Texas and my costume is basically dark clothing with a jacket, hood, and gas mask. No guns or anything like that.
It wouldn't be in poor taste if I kept the mask, would it?
2 AnswersHalloween9 years agoIs it ok for a Senior to date a Sophomore?
I'm a senior in high school and I really like a girl I met a few weeks ago. The only problem is that she's a sophomore. I'm 17, turning 18 in two months and she's 16. I just wanted to get a few opinions on what other people thought about a senior dating a sophomore.
6 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoI need epic theme song music?
Like the kind of song that would play in the background as the most badass character ever created just walked into a room. The kind of music that would play as this character slow walks down an empty street facing impossible odds with a deadly serious look upon his or her face. And overall good music. Haha.
6 AnswersOther - Music1 decade agoran a shredder program and now my drive is full?
I ran Ace File Shredder and now my 698 Gig hard drive is almost completely full. Before I ran the program, I had barely used 1/4th of the total space on the drive. I told it to wipe all the free space on my computer. Did it simply overwrite all of the free space with useless junk? Can I restore my system and get my unused space back? What happened?
1 AnswerSoftware1 decade agoHaving problems with connecting my xbox to the internet via router?
I've had Xbox Live for about a year now and I've never had any trouble with it. I use (not sure what kind) a router to connect my Xbox to the modem and this has worked ever since I set it up in the first place. Recently, my dad bought a new computer and hooked it up to the router I use for the Xbox. Previously, he had his old computer hooked up, no problem. With this new computer, however, every time he turns it on, my Xbox loses its connection to Xbox Live and I am unable to play games while the computer is on. His new computer is running a 64-bit system while the old computer had a 32-bit. Could this have something to do with the connection issues I'm having and, if so, how can I fix this problem?
1 AnswerComputer Networking1 decade agoWhich one should I buy?
Left 4 Dead 2, Assassin's Creed 2, Modern Warfare 2, Bioshock 2, or Halo 3 ODST?
I'm probably going to get them all eventually, I just want to know which to get first. Right now, I'm leaning toward Left 4 Dead 2.
9 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoI'm not asking how to get her...?
I'm asking how to forget her. I'm 16 and I can't stop thinking about this girl. I've had a small crush on her for about 2 years and within the last 2 months its grown to the point where she's all I think about. Normally, I would try talking to her, but I already know that she only regards me as a friend. How do I get myself to stop thinking about her? I've tried distracting myself and it doesn't work. I'll get distracted for 10 minutes at the most, then my mind will wander back to her.

4 AnswersXbox1 decade agoSo the towel trick...does it work?
And if it does, for how long? Also, if the towel trick messes up my xbox, can microsoft still repair it? I'm planning on sending it in if the towel trick doesn't work. So that's $100 bucks down the drain....
One more thing. If I open up the xbox and try to fix it and fail, can microsoft still repair it?
My error is the dreaded E74. Been dead for about 2 weeks now.
4 AnswersXbox1 decade agoSo I think my xbox is dead?
I got a red ring. I think. It's not exactly a ring, just a corner. The lower right corner, to be exact. And now, when I power on the 360, the corner flashes and I get an error screen. I've been to the website and I did what they told me to do. I've determined it isn't my harddrive. What are my options here?
By the way, my 360 is the Halo 3 Pro Edition. It's 3 years old. And out of warranty. I wanted to shoot someone when I figured that out.
4 AnswersXbox1 decade agoDoes anyone know of a good site to download video game soundtracks from?
The game in particular is called Sonic Adventure for the Sega Dreamcast. I just started playing it again since my 360 red-ringed and I noticed that I really liked the music. Anyone know where I can get this stuff?
5 AnswersOther - Music1 decade agoSearching for modern piano music and musicians?
I'm looking for modern bands that use the piano. I don't want any classical stuff. What I want is music on the piano that sounds upbeat and recent. Any bands or songs would be greatly appreciated.
1 AnswerOther - Music1 decade agoLooking for a program that can record from speakers?
What I want is a program that can record whatever is playing through the speakers without a mic or anything like that. It needs to be able to save in mp3 format. Thanks in advance.
1 AnswerSoftware1 decade agoAny opinions on this selection?
Does this sound even remotely interesting?
Steven closed the door to his refrigerator. He was out of meat and his water supplies were running dangerously low. A trip to the supermarket was needed. However, this wasn't as simple as you might think. Just leaving the house was more dangerous than jumping off of the Empire State Building. Sighing, Steven walked into his bedroom and checked the time on the clock next to his bed. 5:45. They would be coming soon. Steven moved over to his closet and opened it up. Inside was a rack with 2 12-gauge shotguns, 2 .357 Magnums, a .30-.06, a composite hunting bow and quiver, and an M4. Steven selected the M4 and both of the .357s, pausing only to grab a handful of reloads for each. He slung the M4 across his back and holstered the .357s on his thighs. He opened the cabinet underneath the rack and pulled out 2 military-issue combat knives, which he sheathed on the side of his boots. He stepped out of the closet, shut it, and locked it. He walked to and knelt at his bed, as if praying, before standing up with a small box in his hands. He removed the top and took out a golden chain with a small gold and silver cross on it. He put on the chain, closed the box, and tossed it onto his bed. He picked up his thick leather jacket and put it over his shoulder. He then walked into the bathroom, checked his appearance in the mirror, opened his medicine cabinet, removed a nondescript pill bottle, and popped a few pills into his mouth. He crunched them up before swallowing them and returning the bottle to it's place. Popping his neck, he left his bedroom and headed towards the staircase.
3 AnswersWords & Wordplay1 decade agoJust a question about perceptions?
If someone says I'm crazy, yet I think I' sane, does that mean I'm crazy? It is said that the mentally unstable don't realize that they're crazy in the first place. So, if I deny the fact that I'm crazy, yet everyone around me says that I am, does that make me crazy? What about if I act exactly as they do, look exactly as they do, and think exactly as they do? Would I still be crazy? Would they be crazy?

1 AnswerOther - Music1 decade agoBizarre Dream...Any explanations?
I fell asleep the other night around 2 A.M. In my dream, I was sitting in an alleyway. I had on a hoodie and I was sitting behind a dumpster. A woman walked down the alleyway and I attacked her. I said something to her and she passed out or something. I suppose I was a vampire in the dream because I laid her against the wall and proceeded to drink her blood. However, I remember that I had the feeling that she was very important and that I had to be very careful with her. I covered her with a blanket that was lying around and left the alley. A man screamed and I felt a sharp pain in my back. It was the woman, except she looked like a corpse. As I died, I woke up. Why would I dream this? And no, I haven't read Twilight or seen the movie or anything. I haven't even thought about vampires or alleys or anything like that recently.
2 AnswersDream Interpretation1 decade agoName of that one song from left 4 dead?
Just saw a commercial about half an hour ago. It was Left 4 Dead and the song in the background was awesome. I was wondering if anyone knows what it is. All I remember was the one line "These are my friends now" or something to that effect. During the commercial, the words "It's the zombie apocalypse. Bring a friend." pop up. Anyone know the name of the song?
2 AnswersOther - Music1 decade agoA room filled with a deadly toxin?
I'm writing a story. The main character has to get through a room with the dimensions of a medium sized warehouse that's filled with a virus that attacks the eyes and lungs. If he breathes in enough, he passes out and dies. He has to get through the room and a long tunnel network that stretches for miles and miles underground. My question to you is this: how can he get through the areas without the aid of a gas mask or any type of mechanized filtering device?
