How to wish happy b'day to some1 in oshkosh wisconsin?
Hey guys we have a friend in our team in an online game we play together who's birthday it is today. After inviting many people she has had only a small fraction of the people she knows in real life say they will come see her for a party she's having which has made her naturally feel sad. She says she will never bother trying to organise such a thing again. I think so many of us live shitty lives that everyone should have but one day in the year where they just have a really great day. She said she works in oshkosh and I knew from previous conversation that she lives in wisconsin. Unfortunately looks like she lives in that city not works in the store I heard of with that name which would've made things easier! Unless there were many branches there lol anyway I have no idea what could be done except if maybe I could get her to go some public place and people here who live locally there could surprise her I think she would be really happy. I have asked a few in our team who live in the states but not many states away like florida if they knew anyone near to surprise her but it's a long shot and chances are they don't because there's just a few in our team from the US. But maybe someone from the area reads this or maybe others have better ideas? I really don't but this lady is a great person to our team and a friend we have all come to love and care for and she helps us a lot so this is a long shot but I just really want to try make her day better. Thanks a lot!
2 AnswersFriends3 years agoClear link between funding and performance?
Through answering another Olympic question (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=201208... ), I found a pattern between GDP and medal count. Was curious to know if I would be right in saying that through some admittedly basic calculations, and if anyone can be arsed to work out what it is for the top 10 or 20 countries?
In order of Golds (total G S B in brackets):
USA 46 (104)
China 38 (87)
Great Britain 29 (65)
Russia 24 (82)
Korea 13 (28)
GDPs:
USA $15.1 trillion
China $7.3 trillion
UK $2.4 trillion (Note: this is UK and NOT GB, couldn't find GBs and I could work it out but I'll be late for work :D)
Russia $1.9 trillion
Korea $1.1 trillion
"Money per medal" key: Gold (Total G S B) ; m = million
USA - $328m ($145m)
China - $192m ($84m)
GB - $83m ($37m)
Russia - $79m ($23m)
Korea - $85m ($39m)
1 AnswerOlympics9 years agoShould I apologise to my neighbour?
Me and my next door neighbour have been friends for a few years now, we would hang out in her backyard and have a fag and chat and everything was cool until a couple days ago when she seemed like she didn't want to see/talk to me when I popped round. It was similar the next day as well, no eye contact and no smiles. I didn't see her for a few days then I saw her this morning and she was polite and helpful but no chitchat, smiled atleast but one of those thin-lipped ones (same from me tbh).
What I think may have happened is she noticed I was starting to like her too much/thought I had a crush on her and it made her uncomfortable, as recently we were hanging out more often. It was more of a passing thought as I know if anything more than friends were to happen between us we'd never be friends again and that's deffffinitely what I don't want. If I was to apologise to her I'd tell her I'm sorry to have made her uncomfy and that I never had any ulterior motives when I popped round, just intended to hang out and chat.
Should I apologise to her (that may make it more awkward?) or should I just see if things go back to normal in time (don't think so)? I think she got defensive that way because she is very attractive and probably gets hit on all the time, I just want her to know I'm not trying that. I want my friend back and things to be cool again!!
PS - Not sure if it's me seeing things wrong but just before all this she'd have a hint of a grin when she saw me - like she thought I fancied her. But she seemed to find it endearing and suddenly...?
6 AnswersFriends9 years agoI love these pills but not sure if they have ecstasy?
I'm not sure if they contain ecstasy but they give some of the same effects (trisma, mydriasis, nystagmus, insomnia). They also give me very mild hallucinations and INTENSE closed-eye and some in-the-dark visuals (esp with weed). Didn't particularly feel "the love". I enjoy music on them but didn't want to boogie uncontrollably, and was pretty happyyyy on them.
Based on these effects anyone know if it's X for sure or some other chemical? I suspected piperazine at first but after research it seems unlikely. Cheers!
