this guy who sits next to me in my art class always has the stinkiest breath. but also, I have the biggest/fattest crush on him. Is it a dealbreaker? Is there a way I can get him to have fresher breath for our inevitable first kiss? patiently awaiting your reply -pining patty
If you feel your art class crush is the one for you it might be worth investing the time to change his smelly ways. Start bringing a tin of altoids or a pack of gum to school and leave them on the desk. Hopefully he takes the initiative to ask but if not, simply offer them. This is an easy way to get him started on a route to fresher breath. If he decides not to take the path of improvement, it’s time to think about tossing him aside, or, if you really can’t let go, plan your first kiss outdoors and upwind!
What’s a good duo senior quote? -Playful Platypus
As someone who never went to high school, I never did a senior quote. However if I had to do one now, a favorite of my quotes was what I said in 1862, “A friend is one who has the same enemies as you have.” Feel free to take inspiration from all of my wise words throughout history, I’m sure there are some you could split up into a duo quote.
Billy has 20 watermelons. His watermelons increase at a rate of f(t) = 3t3 + 5t + 20 where t is the time in seconds and f(0) is the amount of watermelons Billy starts with. How many watermelons does Billy have after 3 years? -anonymous
2.5454138e+24 watermelons. Hope this helps!

I feel that my friends are homophobic, and I always go along with it, but I wanna tell them that this is wrong, but I’m afraid of saying that im gay. What do I do? -pppreston
If you want to stay friends with them, you can try to have a conversation about them being homophobic, or simply stop going along with the jokes. Watching how they react could help you see if their values are too different from yours or not, and you wouldn’t have to necessarily come out if you weren’t comfortable with it. It’s a tough situation to be in, and it’s worth considering how much you value their friendships, but also how much their actions hurt you. The answer is going to be different for everyone, just make sure to prioritize your own happiness and safety, whether that means trying to educate your friends, holding your silence, or ending the friendship. Keep your head up pppreston!
I’m not sure how to ask my friends about exchanging gifts for the holidays without offending anyone. What’s the best way for me to find out who is buying gifts for who and how much we’re supposed to spend on each other?
They call me Honest Abe; I always think honesty is the best policy. Try asking one of your friends one-on-one if they are planning on getting gifts for the rest of your friends, and if so what general price-range they were aiming for. Mentioning it to one person who you feel more comfortable with can be less intimidating compared to asking the whole group, and you should hopefully be able to get a better idea of their expectations.
my boyfriend wants me to start wearing a collar or he will break up with me. what do i do?
Tell him you’ll wear one if he does. Matching accessories could be the next step in your relationship that you didn’t know you needed!
