If she can stay healthy and strong enough to go through the entire campaign, I think he has a chance, but I...

Which is more effective and easier-to-handle: one question with 300 answers or three almost identical questions with 100 answers each? I think the 3 questions would be tougher.

With one set of questions, at least there would be only one answer.

Answer to:
Do perfect strangers sometimes feel the need to give you their life story? In my experiences it is because they are lonely, need someone to talk to, and feel sharing that will gain them some kind of bond so you will reciprocate and "stay with them" in conversation at least. Most of these people are starving for someone to talk to and so they talk about that which they know best - their life.

Why is there always one person who doesn't like me in every group of people? (including Answerbag) I think that is probably a question we could all ask ourselves at some time or another. And the only person to really answer it is ourselves. Look within and see if you do or say things on a regular basis, in every type of situation, that could put someone or several someones off? Usually the answer will come to you if you look and think on it long enough.

Do trolls have some amount of "guilty conscience?" i mean, after my question was DR'ed -5..no comment from the perpatrator of course...it would help a great deal if the trolls had some shred of decency to leave a comment..as it stands, they are indecent!

There will always be trolls. If you cannot get used to it, you will be very unhappy off and on here. +5 for you. Now move on with life and AB. :)

You expect others to benefit from the domino effect of gifting things to others without expecting anything in return except feeling good.

Why don't people find it wrong when a women hits a man? I find it just as wrong. Women are in prison for shooting, stabbing and otherwise killing men by various means, including hitting.

The law should be applied equally.

Also, they probably eat more healthy foods and that helps their immune system up to a point.

Answer to:
Where has the conditioning that men shouldnt cry come from? Their parents growing up and society (part of society anyhow). It can be cured. I cry now when I feel the need. Growing up and into my early 20's I only cried 2-3 times. Now it is no big deal, and if I feel the need to cry, I do it. It is healthy to express those feelings that way, and very unhealthy not to do so.

About 300 or so feet up to the very top observation place. Narrow, old, worn steps. People going up and coming down at the same time! Very difficult if a "heavy" person is trying to get by you!

What is the craziest nutrition fact label you've ever seen? Recently on the side of something we buy that is supposed to be all pure rye and no additives or anything else it said: "May contain traces of wheat, corn, soy, gluten and oats." Great. We will be rethinking the next purchase of that product!

Have you noticed you are limited on how many "helpful" posts you can vote for per question? Do you agree with a limit? How many do you think should be allowed? That has been around for some time. You also are limited to the number of negative ratings you can give the same person in a given time frame. I think it is fair and also necessary for "troll" and other reasons.
