Posted by admin on March 27th, 2011 and filed under mattel | 2 Comments »

I live in Singapore and i want to order some toys from the U.S. Mattel (Because it is cheaper) website. If i pay by PayPal, will Mattel send the package to my country. Sorry, just asking to prevent any mistakes.

If it turns out that they wont ship to your country surely to god they would refund your money. I think you are fine to order it

Is wearing wooden plugs for a long time and in the shower bad for your ears?

Posted by admin on March 25th, 2011 and filed under wooden | 1 Comment »

I read somewhere online that you shouldn’t wear wooden plugs in your ears for a long period of time because it easily carries bacteria.
And that you shouldn’t wear them in the shower.
Is this true??

I’ve been wearing wooden plugs everyday for about a month now and they haven’t done any noticeable harm (yet) so I’m not too concerned.

I suggest you don’t wear them when you’re sleeping or when you’re taking a shower/bath/swimming. It’s not good for the wood or your ears.

How to become extremely successful while without talking, communication and generally being an ahole?

Posted by admin on March 23rd, 2011 and filed under talking | 1 Comment »

Hi YA:

I have asperger’s syndrome and I hate talking, humor and fun in general. People generally don’t like me due to this.

Is it possible to become successful without having to talk to people and having a jackass personality?

Success = Money + Wanted by Women

How to achieve given the above conditions?

Yes.

But it depends a great deal on your definition success and your particular skills & talents.

If you like to read, try The Big Short by Michael Lewis. Among others, it tells the story of Michael Burry.

The "trick," however, is that Mr. Burry was driven to be very, very good at something that earned him a fortune. Not everyone has the skill or the drive in high reward, high stakes fields.

Why do they start talking about Back to School so early?

Posted by admin on March 21st, 2011 and filed under talking | 9 Comments »

School ended for me on June 15th and on July 5th I started seeing back to school adds. What the hell! We still have 2 months until back to school. They should not start talking about back to school until a week before it starts. Are they trying to get kids depressed?

It’s called marketing.

Stores time their ads for the next big event in most people’s lives, whether it’s school, or holidays. Once the summer rush is over, the next big time for stores is the start of school. Immediately after the start of school, they begin holiday ads, some for Halloween, some for Thanksgiving, some for Christmas. Our local Hallmark store began taking orders for Christmas decorations in July.

All the best.

How do you feel socially when you talking to someone who smiles allot?

Posted by admin on March 19th, 2011 and filed under talking | 6 Comments »

I have a friend who smiles all the time, as soon as someone starts to talk to him he’s like :D and he has so many friends, it actually makes being around him really awsome because you can have a good laugh i love positivity!

I also smile allot too and realise it makes the people who im talking to allot more happy!

Whats you view on this also?

nothing wrong with smiling alot. better than being around some miserable bastard.

What club can i join to overcome my fear of talking and become more social?

Posted by admin on March 17th, 2011 and filed under talking | 10 Comments »

Whenever i try to talk to people they seem like they are bored whenever im talking and people say that i have no energy. Im also very shy and whenever i do work up the courage to talk to people, there’s nothing to really start a conversation about? What club do you suggest i take to become more social and overcome the fear when speaking?

sports are a good way to get to know people because they require teamwork. I played volleyball and its literally the best sport to befriend people in.
As far as clubs go, drama club would be fun and you’d be surrounded by people that could help you break out of your shell. join anything that interests you! that way, you meet people who like the same things you do

How can I start talking to an old coworker of mine?

Posted by admin on March 15th, 2011 and filed under talking | 5 Comments »

We weren’t that close but he was really nice and funny but I don’t work there anymore so I have no clue how I would start talking to him. We’re friends on facebook if that helps.

If the two of you are on facebook, then he knows exactly how and where to find you.

When men are interested in you, they have no problems whatsoever taking the initiative and letting you know they are interested.

You can take it for a certain fact that he is NOT interested in you or else he would have asked you out by now.

Quit chasing after men…..let the ones who are interested in you chase YOU. You will be happier in life if you only will learn this one important lesson.

When a man wants you, he will let you know. Otherwise, all that you accomplish by chasing after men is that they think you are desperate, and too stupid to understand that they could have and would have asked you out if they really were interested.

Buy yourself a copy of an older book….it is called "The Rules"….read the book a couple of times. Follow all the instructions and wise up.

How do I get my boyfriend to stop talking to my twin sister?

Posted by admin on March 14th, 2011 and filed under talking | 5 Comments »

MY boyfriend likes to talk to my twin, because they are ‘best’ friends, and I wish it didn’t annoy me but it does, he liked her before me, but no he likes me. What do I do? all I want is for them to stop talking so much, not to completely stop talking. What should I do?

tell him how u feel. if he really loves u, then u coming out and telling him how it makes u feel and thast u want him to stop talkin so much he will listen. trust me my gf did the same thing cause we had a similar prob. mostly the talking part, but she came out and told me the first year we were dating and now its been 2 years and still going…so tell him how u feel

What is the best method of talking to multiple people?

Posted by admin on March 12th, 2011 and filed under talking | 1 Comment »

I know, this is a stupid question, but I’d like to know.

I am used to speaking to one individual, and talking that way to multiple people makes them think that I’m talking to myself or somebody else.

You need to move your eye contact (and head)to each and everyone in the group as you are speaking so they know each of them is being spoken to and given the attention deserved.
