Psh, I was infracted for posting an amblypygi without spoilers.

Anyway, question about Voodoo beliefs: if one creates a doll of oneself and carefully guards it, will it overwrite any other dolls people have made of them? Actually, how would multiple dolls work, in general? What if two different people make dolls of the same target, and then rip the same arm off twice, for example?

1. Just set sigs to not show and it would be miniscule.

2. Not this guy.

3. Contrary to popular belief, you have to be pretty stupid to get infractions around here. Either that or you're doing it on purpose.

4. You live in NYC? Can't you get FiOS?

Thanks, didnt know I could turn off sigs.

I had fios, its awesome. But I moved, and never got it again

Comp shit out on me a little while ago but Im hardly home, so ive just been using my phone for web stuff.

Might grab a laptop on blackfriday. Then maybe ill get fios again.

Until then, I get 5gbs/month of 4g speed on my phone. Just trying to figure out how many stupid youtube vids I can watch lol.

does higher octane gas do anything for engines that don't call for it? I read that it was just for engine timing but my brother keeps putting it in his truck because it's "the good stuff"

Are you tempted to buy a high octane gasoline for your car because you want to improve its performance? If so, take note: the recommended gasoline for most cars is regular octane. In fact, in most cases, using a higher octane gasoline than your owner's manual recommends offers absolutely no benefit. It won't make your car perform better, go faster, get better mileage or run cleaner. Your best bet: listen to your owner's manual. The only time you might need to switch to a higher octane level is if your car engine knocks when you use the recommended fuel. This happens to a small percentage of cars. Unless your engine is knocking, buying higher octane gasoline is a waste of money, too. Premium gas costs 15 to 20 cents per gallon more than regular. That can add up to $100 or more a year in extra costs. Studies indicate that altogether, drivers may be spending hundreds of millions of dollars each year for higher octane gas than they need.

Depends what car he drives, but most likely your brother is retarded.

There are healthy limits of cholesterol allowed in a persons diet, it's somewhere around 300mg. One whole egg has ~213mg. So eggs are pretty high in cholesterol. If you limit other sources of cholesterol that day you are good to go. Also, once every couple weeks isn't going to kill you.

The best thing to do would be just use egg whites. The cholesterol/fat in an egg is all in the yoke. Egg whites on the other hand are a very healthy food, high protein, low calorie, no fat, no cholesterol. Best part is most places sell egg whites in a carton right next to the eggs, so you don't have to separate the yoke yourself.

You're most likely fine. Tell your father to shut up and suck a bag of dicks.

Thanks, Foopy, and also re: eggs, you can make egg whites and just throw in a whole egg if you miss a yolk instead of using a few eggs and tossing the yolks on all but one or two.

What Foopy said. High octane gas is generally only required for high performance or turbocharged engines. Using fuel above the octane recommended by the manufacturer is a waste of money.

I'm writing a paper on why same-sex marriage should be legalized in CA. Specifically CA. Anyone have any good links to help me rather than my school's own database? Need 5 sources and I believe 4-5 main points. I have a few, but would anybody be able to point me in the right direction for this topic?

more recent scientific studies are showing there is little to no connection between dietary cholesterol and blood stream cholesterol, so don't sweat it. too many people assume you are what you eat, but the more we learn about the body, the more we realize how wrong that is

I was going to post this. I remember reading a recent study somewhere I think it was from the Berkeley journal of health or something along those lines. I couldn't find the study though so I might be remembering wrong but in it they did not recommend throwing away the yolk anymore because the nutritional value of the yolk is so high.

Do real life lawyers unbutton and rebutton their suits every 30 seconds, or does that only happen on TV?

[SamanosukeShiva]

unbutton when sitting, button when standing

unbutton when sitting, button when standing

It depends on the cut. Single-breasted suits are extremely common, and it is proper to have the buttons unfastened while seated. However, while standing you should leave the bottom button unfastened. Double-beasted suits should always remain buttoned, but only the top button needs to be fastened.

That being said, I generally don't give a fuck and only wear 3 button single-breasted suits, and leave the top button always fastened, and unfasten the middle one to sit.
