Question by Lena.: Why is it that when I think I’ve chosen the perfect mascara online..?
..there’s always a couple bad reviews on it?
It makes me think twice about the mascara.
Should I just focus on the positive reviews?
Does mascara work differently for people?
By the way, I am having difficulty choosing which mascara.
So far I’ve chosen “Maybelline Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara” and “L’oreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara”.
The L’oreal one was recommended to me on Y! Answers, and the Maybelline one, I saw a girl review it on youtube, and it made her lashes look amazing.
And for both of them, there’s a couple bad reviews. Like flaking, tacky, hard to use, and blah blah blah. What should I do?

Question by xXMiss_PlayerXx: Do you think this sounds good so far for a story???Any criticism would be appreciated!!!!!? ?
“What would you like mam’?” A blond girl with a fake plastered smile asked me as I stood in line at Starbucks.
“Um,I’ll have a Carmel latte.” I mumbled distractedly,staring out of the front window.Where could she be?She promised she would meet me here at 3.It was now already past 4:00.
“That will be $ 3.50″
A sudden thought entered my mind.What if she broke down or got mugged on her way here?!
“Mam’?
What if sh-
“Lady!!!!”I snapped out of my thoughts and turned to see the blond girl giving me a angry scowl and tapping her manicure nails at me impatiently on the counter.”I’m sorry what did you say?” I smiled shyly.She sighed irritatingly and rolled her eyes.”That will be $ 3.50.”I pulled out a crumbled ten from my back pocket and handed it to her.She took it with a disapproving look and turn to put it in the cash register,mumbling something that sounded like “slob”. What,money was money right?”Here you go and if you would be kinda enough to tip.” She smiled falsely,nodding her head to the empty tip jar before turning back to take the next order.I mentally scoffed,ya right.I grabbed my latte and headed back to the quiet corner table that was tucked next to the window.I sat down and took a sip ,staring outside as it down poured, my thoughts wondering back to where Jordan could be.She had sounded so distracted and upset on the phone that I immediately thought something terrible had happen to her boyfriend,Brent,who had just broken his leg from falling down the stairs.But she reassured me that he was alright and that she would explain everything once she had gotten here.I sighed and looked at my wrist watch, 4:50. I guess I’ll just have to call her later.I slung my bag over my shoulder,grabbing my latte, and was just about to leave when a very wet Jordan came through the front door.As soon as I saw her face I knew something was wrong.Her face was paler then usual and her eyes had huge black bags underneath them.The thing that surprised me the most was that she wasn’t wearing any makeup.Jordan always put on makeup,even if she was just walking out to do the trash.When her eyes landed on me her face broke out into an watery smile as she ran up to me.I discarded my stuff back onto the table and embraced her as she broke down into a sob. “Oh Holly,I messed up so bad!!” she cried shakily into my shoulder.”What do you mean?”I asked softly,confused.She pulled back with a sniff and tried giving me a smile but failed miserably.We both sat down and I waited patiently for her to tell me what’s wrong.She sighed sadly and looked out of the window as she started speaking. “You remember my brother Avery right?”I nodded my head silently.Avery was Jordan’s older brother who had just inherited their family business last year.Their parents had gotten in a car crash and died minutes before they could reach the hospital.It was shocking for all of us since it happened so suddenly, we still haven’t completely gotten over it.Avery had just started out college to pursue his music career when it all happened and since their was no heir and Jordan was to young to inherit it,he had to abandon his dream and come back to New York to take it over.A part of me had felt bad for him but the other part of me didn’t really care.You see,me and Avery never really got along,it was hate at first sight.No matter what,Avery always seemed to find a way to get underneath my skin.”Well he’s been having a lot of trouble with the business and the company’s clients are starting to notice.I’ve tried to help but it’s all just to much for the both of us to handle and I’ve been able to take care of Brent.I am such a horrible girlfriend!!She wailed and began sobbing into her hands.”No it’s not going to be ok,I can’t help him,take care of Brent and try to do my job at once,it’s to much!!’ she weep uncontrollably.My heart broke seeing her like this,I was used to her being the strong one.She was the one who told me to have faith no matter what and yet here she was,breaking down piece by piece and I couldn’t do anything to help.Or could I?I sighed,knowing I was going to regret this latter.”I’ll help him run it.”She looked up at me, her puffy raw eyes filled with surprise. “Wh-hat?”I took a napkin and handed to her with a gentle smile. “I’ll help him run it,I have the experience and time since I’m still looking for a job.”"No I can’t ask you t-
I raised my hand and shook my head lightly. “Jordan,you need to take care of Brent and focus on your job.You don’t need this on top of all that,it’s to stressful.”She stared at me for a second before throwing her arms around my neck and hugging me gratefully.”Oh thank you, thank you Holly,I don’t know what I’d do with out you!!”I laughed
(continued)

and hugged her back. “You’d be lost,that’s what you would be.”

She pulled back with a laugh as grabbed her phone out of her purse. “I can’t wait to tell Brent the good news!!”

As I watch a smile blossom onto her face I knew I had done the right thing.But I still couldn’t shake the feeling that something horrible was bound to come out of this,either way.

-Well that’s it for so far and if there’s any grammar mistake,please let me know!!!

I just started writing it about 3 hours ago so I still have to go edit it and add more detail etc.I just wanted to know what ppl thought so far and if I should continue?

The story is about a girl named Holy who has been best friends with Jordan ever since they’ve been in diapers.Her family was like her own,well except for Alex that is.Ever since day one, Alex and Holly had hated each other,no one knows why but they just do.They can’t stand being around each other for more than five minutes without getting into a fight.

When Jordan’s parent’s suddenly die,Alex is forced to give up his dream of becoming a musician and come back to New York to take it over.It’s been a year now since Alex’s parents have died and things haven’t been going so well.With the constant rumors of Alex being a playboy and the sudden stock crash, Alex just isn’t able to do it all,even with the help of Jordan.So when Holly realizes this,she decides to help,even if it means having to help the one person she despis
despises the most.But what happens when Holly begins to start having feelings for him and an old friend suddenly shows up back into her life?Will she be able to deal with this and control and a billion dollar business at the same time?

Answer by anLii3
This is good so far. There is a lot of detail. For future references: Don’t add TOO much detail. No one would want to read how Jordan took the key out of her pocket, put it in the lock, turned it, and opened the door, okay. Also, whenever a new peson is speaking, start a new line. You did it the second time, but not the first. But, in the question, you should’ve said what the story was about. It’s good so far though.

Question by Mike: How sever do you think people’s everyday problems in first world countries are?
compared to people’s everyday problems in third world countries?

For example: an average problem for an American would be getting stuck in traffic on the way back home from work.

While an average problem for a person living in somewhere like the middle east might be: “OH GOD, THEY’RE BURNING DOWN OUR VILLAGE TODAY!!!”

To me i feel like the average first world person has it pretty good, but they just make things up to be pissed about and pretend its a travesty! Now i’m not trying to generalize here but realistically speaking, do you feel that you have it pretty good in the first world? or do you feel like you deserve more?
Also i don’t think its right to ridicule the people who live in third world nations because realistically its not their faults they were born into poverty
sorry i meant severe

Question by Faucett: What do “Yall” think of the word Yall.?
I personlly love the word, being a southerner myself I find it very useful and much quicker than if I were to say “you guys”. I can meet to people and say, “How yall doing today.” And they will both answer me. It creates a second person plural, where the English language sorely needs one. Also, I find that somehow northerners make horrible usage of this word. You can never use yall to mean you. But if I am talking to one person and I say “yall coming tomorrow.” it is infered that he or she will be coming with others.
Anyway, me question is what do all yall think about this word. Is it cool, do you hate it, do you have other cool words like this one up north or in others states?
I agree with gracie slick “yall” eliminates the ambiguity of the word you. And to the other one about SM words, I do the same thing but with SW words, I pronounce swim as Schwim, and always have, of course it may because I grew up speaking German when I was younger, but who knows.
lol, “fixen to” thats another great one.

Question by Playstation Portable: Do You Think Parents Should Tell Their Kids “I Don’t Like You”?
All parents — well, almost all parents — love their kids, for better or worse.

But what about when you just don’t like them? Is it OK to tell them that?

Tara Kennedy-Kline, a writer for the “Today” show, says she’s “so tired of hearing the criticism and judgment of ‘perfect’ parents who believe adults should never, ever say anything mean or hurtful to a child because doing so will surely send them straight to the therapist’s office for the rest of their life.”

And she practices what she preaches.

“Don’t get me wrong. I LOVE my boys, unconditionally, but there are moments when I simply do not like them. And they know it!” she says.

When a child does something disrespectful or hurtful, Kennedy-Kline believes that you actually do them a disservice by NOT telling them you dislike them at that moment. Failure to inform them of their bad behavior is “setting them up for failure in every aspect of their life, from friendships to jobs to marriage and even their role as parents.”

When a parent is angry, Kennedy-Kline says it’s perfectly OK to say, “Give me a minute because I don’t like you right now. Then, “make sure that the rest of the time you tell them that you love them,” she adds.

Sure. But does actually saying “I don’t like you” go too far?

So what do you think of this?

Do you tell your kids “I don’t like you”?

Best answer:

Answer by Mary Kontrarry
This is VERY wrong! Even ONE time hearing this can scar a child for LIFE! YIKES!

It’s your child’s BEHAVIOR that is undesired, NOT the CHILD. Telling the CHILD he or she is unloved/unliked in that moment is setting the child up for serious emotional issues! (saw that in my ex husband)

Telling the child that the BEHAVIOR is unacceptable is perfectly fine.

Good grief.

I asked this question a few days ago and got some good answers and a bunch of “YOUR JUST BEING RACIST…RACIST, RACIST, RACIST!!!”, type answers from the Liberal Socialist… though one stood out where a common respondent of mine “ROMARE” screamed bloody murder about me stating that “Mr.” Obama and his ilk were behind the mosque 100%. She state Obama would never do such a thing and I said he already has, well today “Mr.” Obama came out on national TV and said he was all for the building of the mosque however close it is to the site. This did nothing but hurt him and inflame tensions again…

…so now with this bit of updated information… what do you think?

With that I return you to your regularly scheduled question… Thank you.

———————————–

I asked a question about the Imam building the mosque near the 9/11 sight, and asked why is a slap in the face like this being allowed.

I had some good answers from Liberals that were truly thought inspired, then I had some from the Liberal Socialist that were nothing more then, “RACISM, RACISM, RACIST, RACIST, RACISM!!!”

I stated in the question that this was an attempt to set up a mosque to show conquest as is common in Islamic society. I cited the fact it was being called the “Cordoba House”, being the name of the city in Spain where Muslims made an attack on a peaceful co existing city with Christians and Jews. They came in and cut the throats of every man, woman, an infant inside the walls.

Yet the “Liberal Socialist”, again claimed racism and said something to the effect that, the mosque is not meant to be a sign of conquest and is nothing more then peace loving Muslims trying to worship. I educated them to the fact of the Imam being a terrorist and his VERBAL speeches he made on 9/11 about how America deserved what it got and his known support for Hamas. I posed this evidence to the Liberal Socialist, and there reply was… “Racism.”.

I enlightened the Bleeding Hearts to the fact that it was going to be so close to the Islamic attack site, only “600″ feet, (…and for you men out there), thats two football fields away people. You can see the Freedom Tower’s construction from the mosque site… once again after telling the Liberal Socialist this, they replied with “Racism…”.

Then it came to light that they attain the builders permits for the mosque were attained under fraud because they didn’t own all the property, and by New York law the builder must own every speck of property before they can apply for permits to build, or like I said; its fraud, thereby making them ineligible to build. I posed this to the Liberal Socialist, their reply… “Racism.”

I then educated them to the fact that the terrorist Imam, refuses to say where the money to build it is coming from, and educated them to the fact that some of the money was coming from people high up or at least attached to Hamas and Iran in some way, they again replied… “Racism…”

SOOOOO…. now today the news comes out that they want to open the mosque on September-11-2011… Are you kidding? What else do you bleeding hearts need to know that this is nothing more then terrorist getting a conquering mosque built on a site like as is taught to them in the Quran to show “Allah’s power” over those who do not follow him?

So what do you think? Are the Liberal Socialist right and were all just being horrible racist? Or are the rest of us Americans right when we say this mosque is just being built to glorify the attacks?

All views are welcomed, even those of the “Liberal Socialist”, just keep them valid and maybe we can debate them. Thank you.

To GEE WALLY:

You are confused. Not all Liberals are Liberal Socialist. I thought I cleared that up as well, but OK here we go.

A liberal hold Liberal beliefs and that is fine, we are all entitled to follow our own path. A Liberal Socialist is someone who follows Obama’s path of Socializing healthcare, banks, what have you. These people have given the hearts, minds, and souls to Obama. I hope your not one of his sheep. That would be quite sad.

Question by Jenna: Is this a good idea? I just don’t want him to think I’m mad at him..please answer =[ ?
So there was this guy I liked and I thought he liked me too. Well, we texted for a while, and talked in school/class some. He asked me to hang out 2 times, and I said yes both times. (but both times we just ended up making out) That was about a month ago, and we haven’t really talked to each other since. He said he wanted to remain friends. But the thing is, I think he thinks I am mad at him and don’t want to talk to him.
So…I was thinking about commenting on his facebook status…it says: “John had an awesome time at basketball today.”
I was thinking about putting, “Awesome, how’d it go?”
Is that ok? Or will my putting that make him think I still like him?

Thanks!
