I want to be able to approach people and have a conversation. It's not that I don't have things to say, I think of a hundred different things. I just can't 'pull the trigger' and engage in conversation. For example, my sister's wedding. The ceremony had finished, we had all eaten, and the party part of it had started. People were talking and dancing and having a nice time. I couldn't join them. I just stood against the wall. These people were my family, too, not the 'cute girl across the room'. Any suggestions on how to talk to people?

I can't see coaches or management being able to convince 53 grown men (In the NFL, at least) to purposefully do bad at the one thing they've spent their entire lives doing just so the can get a better player in the draft who could also possibly take their job from them

Who do you think their coaches are going to be next year? Harbaugh will be available, Rex Ryan is getting fired. Will Trestman go?

For example, if I put hot sauce, a known liquid, on my taco, a known solid, am I eating the hot sauce? If not, am I drinking and eating simultaneously? Thanks

I have spent my entire life thinking I was born and raised a Chicago Bears fan and, to my displeasure, found this to be a lie when cleaning out my garage. Under the dust of countless days, in a box marked "Kids", I discovered photographs of me as a child in...San Francisco 49ers pajamas. I asked my parents and they told me I had all sorts of 49ers merchandise and actively rooted for them when they were on. I don't know what to do. Do I switch my allegiance (again) or do I stay with the Bears? If I was born a 49ers fan, is it right to change? And for that matter, if I've spent most of my life as a Bears fan, is it right to switch back? I live in California, have never been to a football game. Thank you for helping me in this confusing time.

Well, can you? For example, can you eat hot sauce? By itself, I'm sure you would say no. On say, a taco, though? Is it being eaten? Are you both eating and drinking the hot sauce? If not, are you eating the taco but drinking the hot sauce? Thanks

From every NFL player drafted, who do you think will be the best?

Offensively, I think it will be Blake Bortles. Defensively, I say Kyle Fuller.

Your thoughts?

Is the actor that plays Bobby Munson named Mark Boone Junior (Junior is his last name) or Mark Boone Jr. (Boone is his last name)? This has been bothering my sister and I for quite some time. Thanks in advanced

Doesn't the NFL usually ban players for 2,4,6,8, and 16 games. 9 games is just long enough for him to miss the game against the Saints. I'm not a fan of him, what he did or didn't do or the 49ers. I'm just saying, isn't it weird they banned him 9 games? No? Just wondering.

Jay Cutler - 13 possible games missed

Big Ben - 15 possible games missed

They both had solid defenses throughout their careers (well, 4 of 5 years for Cutler in Chicago), they both had crap offensive lines, both had no receivers until recently. Ben's missed more games though, yet the narrative is that Jay Cutler is more and perhaps the most injury prone QB. Why is this?

Both objects are completely flat at an atomic level. No irregularities at all. Would there be friction between the two surfaces?

I'm 17, 18 in January, and I need to earn money for my family. I didn't think we were so poor until today when my mom's car got repossessed. I want to bring some money in, help pay for some things. I tried getting a job at McDonald's about a half a year ago and got rejected. I'm a smart kid, 3.8 GPA, willing to do anything, really. How can I get a job? I live in California, near LA (Antelope Valley, if you know the area). Thanks in advance for the help

How has Brandon Marshall done against Richard Sherman? Not Marshall vs the Seahawks, I'm talking specifically Sherman on Marshall. Thanks

The Chicago Bears have Bill Murray, Ashton Kutcher, Vince Vaughn, and Barrack Obama. Is that the best or no?

Would you like a new calendar that, instead of having 12 months of varying lengths, had 13 months. Each month would have exactly 4 weeks, exactly 28 days. 13 x 28 = 364, so it doesn't work out perfectly. The one day left over wouldn't be in a month and would be a holiday like New Years Eve or something. I know this change won't happen, I'm just wondering if you think it'd be a good date system

I'm writing a short story about a girl trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic world and at one point she has to eat what attacked her. Would you read a story like that? Here's part of it. Thanks. Constructive criticism is welcome.

"The wood feed the fire and the smell of cooked flesh feed the sky. Jess esuriently licked the bones clean. This consumption, Jess found, the drinking in of the scents and tastes of the would be assaulter, was to her, the turning point, a sip from the roaring waters of the infernal Lethe, a dive in the Styx. She was not the same person. She had devolved into something much worse, something she could not come back from"
