I've had to do a survey for a study and was stationed at a clinic to do something like that - give patients questionaires and help them fill it up. It was very boring - having a gameboy with me helped relief the bore a little.

Reply to Of Tele-husbands, Cyberwives and Virtual Lovers in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

Among my friends, I have observed this, that even with all the technology to ease keeping "in touch" - email, SMS, MMS, ICQ - young couples in early 20's who have been together for less than a year or two before being apart (due to studies or work), usually break up in the end. There is truly no subsitute for touch and actually hearing the voice of someone you love. Those that assume that they don't need to come home once in a while because they have

Maybe you shouldn't have said goodbye - or least had it seem like it was permanent... What a terrible thing to have happened to your friend. What's that about, road rage? Hope your friend gets better soon and his hand heals properly.

Star Ocean Regrets - a lesson on game saving in Playstation JoeUser Forums

Restarting sucks but I guess I'm gonna have to with this game. It's a real mental ache because I have put over 35 hours into this game. (It's a 80-100 hours kind of a game.) I made one stupid mistake of not playing around more with inventing better equipment for my characters. Now I'm stuck because I can't get past this boss character, Robin Wind

>>you are handed a brochure that explains the tipping policy. hm I don't remember getting any brochure, then again I'm not from Europe. But guess I've made my point. At least now I know what the normal tipping rate is...

Aluminum in the deordorant - it could have come off from the cheap cans they use to contain the stuff, can't it? Paraben is not listed because paraben is just the general name of a group of chemicals - esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid - a preservative. Link - The links from this site goes to an interesting list of products that contain parabens. <

How annoying! Put a big sign out there, "This area is under survellience", that might put a stop to them in the future.

There's no tipping culture in Singapore, although you are free to leave a tip if you are really happy with the service. There is already a fixed 10% service charge in the bill which is sort of like compulsory tipping - in this way we don't have to crack our heads trying to figure out the correct rate of tipping and the waiters will never come up short of their salary because of lack of tipping. When you don't need to tip, and you tip because you are re

Reply to I can't tell you what I am, but I can tell you what I'm not. in Misc JoeUser Forums

A lot of people feel the way you do when they are asked about themselves. They talk about the positives and try to balance by talking about their negatives and then seem to spiral themselves down by going too far on the negatives. I have a friend like you, I sometimes have to stop her before she keeps talking about the bad side of her which I think she just blow it all out of proportion. I do think it's very difficult to describe yourself a

Love the new look. Except...how do you give people an 'insightful' now, or does one have to go directly to the blogs to give points since it doesn't appear that one can do it in-forum? And the posts don't have links to the author's blog site - I've always thought that was useful because I could go directly to author's blog if I wanted read more from so

It does take a worldwide disaster to bring people together, if only for a while. Having aliens come down, would bring mankind together and make us realise that we are one on this planet, but if typical human nature has its way, we'd probably direct the same kind of hatred towards the new race. (Reminds me of the one time TV series, Alien Nation) In my pessimistic opinion, we wouldn't really change a bit. Not until we evolve into a less nar

Reply to Bathroom reading in Misc JoeUser Forums

I can never understand how my dad was able to read almost the whole newspaper in the bathroom. And our toilets were squating ones back when I was little. And he could be in there for more than fifteen minutes. Talk about a lot of shit to unload. To me it's gross to be in the toilet and be shitting for so long - it stinks for one and hovering over your own shit for so long sounds disgusting to me.
