SOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!! I bought a knock-off on ebay :)

4 AnswersWords & Wordplay1 decade agoWhy should my sister be one of my bridesmaids!? We don't even get along!?
My fiance has two older brothers, I have two older sisters. How perfect! Not. I fight with my one older sister all the time. Our personalities completely clash. I wanted to have my other sister as a bridesmaid and my fiance to pick one brother. I know it will cause my other sister and I to fight so much because it will hurt her feelings that I chose my other sister...especially since I've already told her I'd like her to be a bridesmaid. So do I have her as a bridesmaid and be unhappy or tell her no and be unhappy?
Another option is to have no bridesmaids and no groomsmen. For some reason that makes me unhappy though too. I don't have any really close friends to choose.
WHAT DO I DO????
ps - my wedding is in June 2012, so I have a while to decide but right now I'm really upset about it because I got in a big fight with my sister last night and when we talked it over it basically made things worse since she has no idea what an apology is.
6 AnswersFamily1 decade ago"It" by Stephen King...question plz because I finished the book and I don't get it!?
First of all, I know few people would agree with me but I thought this book was borderline terrible. I wish at halfway when I realized it sucked I would have quit.
Anyways, I want to know why Beverly had sex with all of her friends when they were kids!?!?! One boy right after the other!
And "It" all along was just a big spider? Seriously, wtf.
2 AnswersBooks & Authors1 decade agoWhy can't I break the suction on the Diva Cup? Don't want to suck out my IUD!?
This is my very first time with the diva cup. I'm having trouble with many parts:
1) Why can't I break the suction!?!?! I've watched videos and read on the internet and they make it sound so easy! I can't reach all the way up to push the top seal away from the vaginal wall. Anytime I try to push it away to break the seal it just will not budge! My fingers are all the way in. I'm thinking about getting an IUD right away so I have got to figure out how to do this or else I'm not getting an IUD! I heard you can suck out the IUD's.
2) During insertion, when it's half in half out, I let go of pinching it so I'll unfold itself, then I push it in all the way. Yet when it's in I can FEEL that it's not unfolded and it's uncomfortable. I run my finger around the sides so I'll get a good seal yet it stays folded.
3) I got the perfect fit last night before bed (after 4 tries!!!) with no leaks. Yay! Yet when I woke up I could feel it a little. I thought it was falling out. When I went to take it out, turns out it got pushed too far in....the stem was about an inch up there. Thought I was going to poo from pushing so hard to get it out....
4) What's the phone number for Diva Cup incase I REALLY need help? Is it on the box?
Please don't be afraid to describe graphically because I need to understand the best that I can!!! Thanks! Hope this gets better with time.

I AM NOT planning on doing this!!!!!! Just curious! If I were driving on the highway and just grabbed the key and turned it to off without braking or anything, what the heck would happen? Would I totally wreak the car? LOL
It's an automatic transmission. Would it make a difference if it were a standard trans.?
10 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoJust bought a treadmill....how do I workout properly? I am NOT looking to lose weight.?
Hi, I am already boarderline underweight but I bought a treadmill to get in shape and tone my body. How should I workout to do this? I mostly run for 5 mins, then jog, then walk, then repeat the process. I put the incline at approximately 5.
What are some other tips for first time treadmill users? Today I was bad...went on it for 45 mins with no shoes. Won't do this again. What else should I know?
Thanks :)
54 AnswersDiet & Fitness1 decade ago98 Sunfire GT...what could these clunking noises be?
Hi, mechanical help please. :(
My Sunfire has a very loud clunk when I take my foot OFF the brake pedal. IT ONLY DOES THIS when I'm pretty much at a stop. It also only does the clunk when I'm doing a rolling stop or a real quick stop. If my foot's on the pedal for a while, like a traffic light, it NEVER does it. It doesn't do this noise all the time either! Weird!
I also occasionally hear clunks when I'm coasting at extremely low speeds....so slow my spedometer isn't moving. Like I put my car in gear when I was parked on the driveway one day and without giving any gas (just coasting) you could hear some quiet little clunks. This also doesn't happen consistenly, only when the car feels like it or something!
YESTERDAY I heard some quiet clunks when I was turning the steering wheel! Jeez 'eh. Put some power steering fluid in it today (it was low) so we'll see if it helps. Just thought I'd mention this too in case it gives some insight on the other problems
Any ideas? Maybe struts need lubrication a buddy of mine said?
3 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoGirls: do you hate your boyfriend's Xbox/PS/whatever? Relationship problems?
Just wondering if other gals out there have problems in their relationships when the guy plays too much video gaming.
My boyfriend plays a lot, but if I ask him to do something he will and we spend enough time together...but sometimes just watching him play for hours on end (like more than 4-5 hours) frustrates me like crazy which can cause fights. He'll stop if there's something else I suggest we do. He's a darn nice guy but it bugs me at times. Can anyone give me advice so I can chill out? He's not an addict if thats what you're thinking. We're moving this winter so I'm kinda scared.
Thanks
8 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoI don't get the point of cancer research. Isn't it just our diets and lifestyles?
I'm not trying to be negative. I would do BACKFLIPS if they found a cure for cancer. My Grandpa died from blood cancer. But in my opinion, cancer is caused from being overweight, smoking, doing drugs, eating animal products such as beef and milk with hormones/antibiotics in it, being stressed, not excercising, air pollution, cell phone and microwave radiation, trans/sat. fats, pesticides/herbicides, ...................
Why isn't the government or the research organizations taking the donated money to entice companies be more socially responsible, starting laws banning animal hormones and pesticides, or giving money to help organic companies so they can sell their items cheaper (which would induce consumers to buy healthier)?
I don't know if there really is a cure for cancer...do you think so? I believe the world has changed so much and people have become so lazy that cancer is the result. I feel like people who donate might as well throw their money out the window.
Don't be angry at me....it's just a thought.
8 AnswersCancer1 decade agoIs anyone else depressed that it seems as if everyone drives a big gas guzzling truck?
Doesn't anyone care about vehicle pollution anymore? Our ozone is being depleted. People with no kids are driving big V8 SUVS and loser guys with their big pickup trucks and they don't even need one! I especially hate those guys with pinky finger sized dicks that have to drive the trucks that are lifted really high so they look like some kind of monster jam truck. If you need a big truck for your job then fine but what's with people who drive these big things they don't need! wtf!!!
14 AnswersGlobal Warming1 decade agoIs a 2006 Chevy Cobalt SS Turbocharged good on gas?
Hi, my boyfriend is looking at a 06 Turbocharged/Supercharged Cobalt (the fancy 260 horsepower model) and since this car is so fast we were wondering if its bad on gas.
As well, is there anyway to not activate the turbo...because wouldn't that save gas? I heard that the turbo is activated when you hit the gas pedal fairly hard. So if you don't gas hard will you save gas?
Thanks
5 AnswersChevrolet1 decade agoWhy are people so insulting if you watch what you eat or go on a health kick?
I have recently changed my diet due to reading a book called "Anticancer" and doing my own research. I have omitted a lot of meat from my diet (still eat a bit of chicken but NO RED MEAT - because of the hormones added), trying to cut out high fructose corn syrup, white flours, sugars, etc. I enjoy life and want to live a long time!
However at Easter with my boyfriend's family, someone asked what meats I eat since they heard I don't eat red anymore. Another woman sort of ganged up with another person and they were trying to make me sound stupid when I explained why I don't want to eat certain things. I wasn't forcing my opinion, they asked! They said: "If the government allows it then its not bad for you!" "Look, I'm not dead yet and I eat meat!" "There's bad stuff in everything, you can't avoid it all!!!" They seemed to be trying to make me sound like a girly-girl and it was embarassing in front of so many people. Laughing at me too. And they're both over weight and I'm fit!!!!!!

Please don't be rude to me, its a sensitive topic. Thanks :)
3 AnswersVegetarian & Vegan1 decade agoIs it bad to dislike your boyfriend's or husband's family?
In your opinion, is it a problem if you don't like you significant other's family? I've been with my boyfriend for 3 and a half years and I've never liked his brothers. One was very rude to me due to an unfortunate incident (he's WAY too sensitive), and the other one doesn't talk because it seems he thinks he's better than everyone. My boyfriend's Dad is better, except for when he's a rude jerk when he drinks. His Mom is ok...a little strange. I don't like my boyfriend's brothers girlfriends either. My family is much much more welcoming and friendly to my boyfriend than his family is to me.
When there are family dinners at his house, its me every time who helps clean up the dishes. NOT ONCE has anyone gotten up to help, I'm like the slave, but I'm proud that I help out.
So is it a bad thing if you just can't seem to like his family?
