  • how much does marlon brando weigh?
    My guess is somewhere around 320 pounds, the man was huge.

  • what's wrong with Japan's economy?
    I think the better question is what's right with Japan's economy. Consider their rule of 20x, eg, that an executive leading a company can only make 20 times the lowest paid employee. However in the US we have no such laws...and then look at Whole Food...

  • How sociologists measure prejudice?
    They usually design surveys and questionnaires, and then design a study that takes into account different demogrphic data and get as much data as can be safely said to have "statistical significance" to support the findings of the study they're conduct...

  • How to make a username?
    Usually people pick one that involves hobbies, etc, or something they like :) You must be a fan of pets or cats, right?

  • Having problems viewing answers
    Are you using http://www.funadvice.com/ to use the site, or one of the international versions, eg, http://www.funadvice.co.uk/ ? (check your address bar to see which one you're on) And are you using firefox, or IE to browse? And what version? ...

  • Is there a way to disclude our photos from the rating pool?
    Hm, I know, I know- last answer to this was posted by me. However, if you go to edit your profile now, you can restrict access to your photos AND remove all comments & ratings. Or you can go to each photo & remove the rating / comments on individual...

  • Haw to create a webpage design?
    Use HTML / CSS and some desktop software, if you're on a mac, simultron is both free & awesome, and it has a built in preview feature. If you're on a windows computer, some text editors are free that have HTML / preview, CSS, etc, in them.

  • The famous letters,"O" and "M"/ Oprah and Mary Tyler Moore
    Hi there- I'm sure Oprah would love to hear your compliments...however, you used "funadvice" which is a seperate company. Not the official site for oprah. :)

  • Anyone out there in or from New Zealand?
    Lots of folks, actually. If you use our member search: http://www.funadvic.com/members you can enter the country & then search for men / women in that country, and the results are sorted by the last time they were on the site by default :) We...

  • Lying about their age on here?
    If you see somebody with an invalid date of birth, let us know - I routinely contact people about this :) Honestly, it's a USA federal law the reason we limit to 13 & up...if you want to change it, you'll need to lobby congress & your local politici...

  • Buddy4u Profile? (100.00%)
    In all honesty, if this company cares about you, they should be able to help you fix the problem :) And they should have some kind of tutorial, etc, on how to use the site. Contact them & they'll help you out...if they don't, then perhaps you should...

  • Where it says location on the profile, mine keeps changing?
    ...actually, that is a bug, and we need to fix it - thanks for the reminder.

  • What movie should I go see?
    Wanted is lame, I just saw it yesterday.

  • Can I get my ugg sandals wet?
    ugg boots get ruined if they get wet, from what I read...so, I'd try not to get the sandals wet, unless they were designed as "beach" sandals. The other thing I read is they're very hard to clean..you can buy an ugg brand cleaning & conditioning pro...

  • Does anyone like seafood?
    Sure, I like lobster, salmon, sea bass, shrimp...that's pretty much it. If fish from the sea counts as sea food, my favorite would have to be salmon when it's baked properly with some spinach on the side.

  • Is Bourne Conspiracy a good game?
    I've looked at it, but I didn't pick it up. I've never seen a video game counterpart to a movie that was "all that" however, your mileage may vary. Eg, I don't think Bourne the game would be better than Call of Duty 4.

  • Chess discrimination in school?
    Most school games favor the events where big, fast, athletic people can compete. You don't see cheering at math competitions (I was in one) or science competitions (again, I was in one) or in the US, as many people watching the soccer team (football, i...

  • Would like to watch a new anime, suggestions?
    Have you tried using amazon.com to see "people who bought this movie also bought..."? That way you could see anime that people bought who liked the same ones as you, and then go to itunes or a local store to pick it up. The last anime movie I watche...

    So...usually, we don't like to mention competing websites :) However, some I participate on professionally include webmasterworld and linkedin (both .com). People that use this site use others, as well - the largest being facebook & myspace. We h...

  • Speed between GPRS Class 10 & GPRS 32 ? (100.00%)
    Class 32 is technically the best - in terms of speed increase, class ten has 60Kb/ second, so the minimum increase would be 25% based on a chart I read. However, you'd want to test both devices as real world performance may vary.

  • Regis Salon?
    My guess is...either nobody here had experience with their hair growth products, OR they don't carry them. Hope the salon treatment went well, and let us know if their products did help your hair growth, as a lot of people ask that question.

  • Top MLM women today
    Honestly, no idea...however, with any program, there are keys to success: determination, discipline, and willingness to be creative. With an MLM, you need to ask yourself: is this product being sold everywhere among all the people I know today? Does...

    http://www.funadvice.com/q/pokemon_diamond_hm_rockclimb Try that one.

  • How much does it cost to start a site like this?

  • Do you believe in agencies that are looking actors no experience
    Usually, it's a sucker ploy where that's the "bait" advertisement, and then the agency tries to sell you on some training, etc, for a fee. However, yes, if you do land a job as a part time actor the pay on an hourly basis is pretty good - the trick ...

  • Angora Fire in Lake Tahoe
    Last year, the fire in Angora burned a total of 3100 acres, with about two hundred and fifty homes destroyed. Terrible. It seems they're just starting to rebuild now.

  • How do I make my own online flash game?
    A good place to start: http://www.funadvice.com/q/games_11122 Eg, do you have Adobe flash already? Learned actionscript? If not, then those are the two technologies you need to learn. Then using a program that will compile the FLA file into an SWF, yo...

  • Does anyone else pay more than 9,500$ for taxes?
    Well, in the US, if you make say, 50K per year, you're single with no dependents - then in total, you'll be paying around that much. And the national average for wages in 2000 was 42K per year, given inflation, it should be around 50K by now per yea...

    So above your picture (eg, on mine, here): http://www.funadvice.com/photos/view/25614 There is a "disallow comments" link which prevents people from commenting on the photo...should we change that to disallow "feedback" eg, neither comments nor rat...

    Have you tried using flash & actionscript? A lot of web based games are built in Flash with actionscript, which is a programming language you use to control events in the flash game. If you know some javascript, actionscript is relatively easy to st...

  • Love and Relationships
    If you use a proper question title, it's far less likely to get moved to another category as well, eg, use a descriptive title that accurately sums up what you're asking about.

  • This election holding true or ignoring ? (100.00%)
    Let's see - ever since McCain almost got us into a nuclear war...well, I'm judging him by the content of his character. As for the other guy, he hasn't messed up that bad, yet - so I'd like to give him a shot to put his foot as far into his mouth as...

    ...hm, I can't think of anything :( sorry. If you have even a line or two of the chorus or lyrics, then I can help more.

  • Way to find out all the sites I have an account with?
    ..if you're really paranoid, get a key logger install it onto his computer & presto, you record everything he types.

  • Way to find out all the sites I have an account with?
    Nope...and why? Because most sites you'd register with, eg: youtube myspace facebook google Yahoo MSN / Live Are all seperate companies...as to why they *don't* share their data, because it's valuable to keep you locked into their service ;)
