    What's up with the "here in the real world" mentions I've seen in some of the threads? Have I been living in a fake world all this time? With fake plastic trees?

    there is PJ world and real world...

    Boys are so lucky...us girls have to levitate or hold it. I go with the latter because there is no way I'm even attempting to pee at a concert *shudder*.

    I'm going to assume you don't go camping? I'm an "expert hover-er"
    There is big difference between hovering to pee in the bush and hovering to not come in contact with the petri dish of gross while peeing in a specific target. Option two requires more thought than peeing ever should. Besides I find that if I dance enough at a concert I dehydrate just enough before I have to pee. Very fine balance but I've done well with it so far.

    take your cup into the bathroom and pee in that, then dump it in the toilet and flush with your foot. I did that once when the only bathrooms were portapotties. Because no. I was quite proud of my ingenuity lol but that's the only time I've ever had to resort to something that desperate. Usually if you go BEFORE the show it's not bad. Then by the time you get out you won't be bursting.

    I find it a tad bit harder to balance whilst peeing next to a bush and not pee on my pants or shoes. Anywho, I stop drinking by water about an hour before the show, and try to carry a cup of ice with me, keeps me hydrated enough, but doesn't make me feel like I need to run to the bathroom. :)

    That's a cool idea....first I have to stop being such a beer slut, then maybe I can think about drinking water at a show. :P

    My grandpa used to tell me that you could throw a check on the ground to see if it bounces. Is this true ?

    Yes but only if check is filled out to Cash and if you don't pick it up afterwards :D

    ok, so I got a stupid question...now I know that "Call me Ishmael." is the opening line to Moby-Dick, and I know that it's the Narrator of the story but I've heard people say "Well call me Ishmael..." and I want to know what in the hell that means....???

    from what I am trying to find on the webby world...the narrator simply says "call me..." he doesn't specify his name so it is implied that his name isn't Ishmael. So I suppose when people say that they are being 'haughty' and saying that instead of saying, "call me anything you want" or they are trying to remain incognito.

    or something like that.

    Ishmael is one kickass name (and book! damn my not previewing before posting).

    Speaking of names, why do some parents spell their children's names as if penned in crayon by a five-year-old?

    When you are pushing a stroller on a sidewalk don't you think that the stroller has the right of way? Why would you make the baby stroller veer off into the grass? Move your ass.

    I agree with you, the stroller has the right of way. :) (but some people lack of common sense)

    I knew a girl in college and her sister named her daughter Pajama..the normal person reads that as night clothes.. But it was pronounced PAH-Ja-MAH, not Pa-JAM-Ma.
    That poor kid!! But not as bad as her brother( Pajama's brother), whose name was Shingles.
    Pronounced SHEEN-Glase.
    My friend had a rather normal name, Jaye- Kaye. But her sister, the kids' mother was named Armware.. Pronounced like the furniture piece..
    I can only imagine what these kids went through in school!!

    I don't know. All I can say is that I grew up in Woodstock, and stuff like that became the norm There are actually a few different women named Pixie in town and I worked with a guy whose parents named him Buck Rogers--true story.
