    How would you guys deal with rumors?

    Here are two example cases, both of which involve the rumor being false. For the sake of it, it'll be two guys in high school -- Guy A is a senior and Guy B is a junior -- who've been great friends since the elementary days.

    1. Guy A meets Guy C, a freshman, and makes friends with him. Now, it could be anything, such as just for the funny, but for the sake of this example, let's say Guy C also knows Guy B from elementary, except they didn't get along. He dislikes him and starts a rumor that he had sex with Guy A. It gets around and eventually Guy A hears about it. Guy A looks to those friends (B and C) first over other friends and students; when he confronts them, Guy B insists it wasn't him and doesn't know who started it while Guy C insists it was Guy B.
    2. Guy B makes friends with Guy C, a sophomore. Guy A finds out as the school days go on that he's really talkative and can be really annoying. After a month, he's on edge, but doesn't want to say anything to his friend -- Guy B -- and hurt his feelings. Guy A starts a rumor that he and Guy C had sex to get Guy B and Guy C to stop being friends. It eventually reaches Guy B, and he confronts Guy A and Guy C first over other friends and students. Guy A insists it was Guy C because he's the "newbie" of the group while Guy C insists it wasn't him and doesn't know who did it.

    The difference between the two is that one involves the rumor being between two guys that have known each other for quite a while, while one involves the rumor being between two guys that haven't known each other that long.

    Pretend you're Guy A or Guy B. Who would you believe and how would you deal with it? Additionally, say you didn't confront them and instead they were trying to find you to talk about it. Would you completely avoid them out of embarrassment or something and not even give them a chance to try and explain or would you be willing to talk to them regardless if you were embarrassed or not?

    The rumors can be anything from something minor to something like that, of course. That's just what crossed my mind when I got the idea to make this thread and figured it was a good rumor example, which could actually happen in real life, of course.

    Okay, I've actually got a few suggestions / ideas regarding this.

    Would it be possible to:
    • Separate the waiting time limit between posts and profile comments?
      - It's annoying that you can't go and post a comment on a person's profile and have to wait if you just made a post in a thread.
    • Reduce the waiting time limit?
    • Nullify the waiting time limit?
      - If not that, maybe just for Premium Members as a perk?

    Thoughts?

    I did not -- or, rather, do, since I still use it for its alarms -- have this problem with my old flip phone.

    Every now and then something will happen with the smartphone and my computer speakers will make this weird static-y noise that gets louder if I move the phone closer and lasts for about 10 seconds regardless if it can be heard or not. Additionally, if I'm playing on my PS2, it seems to scramble with my controller. Like, if the game is just sitting there without any commands from me on the controller, it'll all of a sudden act as if I were holding one of the directional buttons and go down or up over a list over and over (e.g., the battle command menu on Dragon Quest VIII) or act as if I pressed X. If I'm playing a game when it does this, it really messes things up.

    Now a little while ago, my phone appeared to freeze up, so it reset itself. When it went back on, I discovered it that also messed with the controller because Dragon Quest VIII started going crazy.

    I don't know. Weird issue. Thoughts?

    What are your guys' opinions on activities with other friends when you have a boyfriend or girlfriend?

    For example, for those that have boyfriends or girlfriends, if one of their male friends asked to go to the movies with your girlfriend or if one of their female friends asked to go to the movie with your boyfriend, would you see anything wrong with just the two going just to hang out and do something together?

    Okay, I've never dealt with depression, so I don't know what it feels like, so I don't know if I'm depressed or just feel down sometimes.

    When I let my mind wander, I will sometimes think about high school, and it just saddens me, I guess. I miss going to school, I miss my teachers, and, most importantly, I miss all the great friends I made -- from those who graduated last year to those who are still in school and are sophomores, juniors, or seniors this year. I've got a lot of them on Facebook, but it's just not the same.

    I sometimes visit my Spanish teacher's -- whom I had for 3rd Year Spanish last year -- 4th Year Spanish class, which has some of the students from 3rd Year Spanish, and that helps a bit.

    So what do you guys think? Any advice?

    So I wake up around 6:20 AM -- that's 28 minutes ago -- and feel rough stuff on the right side of my face. I just think I must have drooled while I was sleeping and go into the bathroom to get it off quickly (I could get it off without water). I look in the mirror; it's blood, so I had a nosebleed while I was sleeping. I go back and look at my pillow, and there's a tiny stream of wet blood on my pillowcase that went through to my pillow, so it was recent.

    The end.

    Wonderful

    The wisdom tooth on the bottom-left of my mouth finally started going down a while ago and is still going down, but I can now feel the one on the bottom-right of my mouth coming up.

    Not only that, but the one on the top-left -- which I got like over a month ago -- still hasn't gone back in all the way, and it doesn't seem like it will.

    Well, at least I'm not uncomfortable anymore.

    Idiots

    Let's talk about idiots. Do people even have brains?

    There's plenty of parking on the other side of the street, and this truck has to park in front of our house. To make it worse, there's a trailer attached blocking at least half of the driveway.

    I think I can get out when I have to pick up my mom at my aunt's at 4:00 PM, but that's not the point. People need to use common sense, and common sense tells me I shouldn't park in front of a driveway regardless if there's a vehicle there or not. In my case, the car's still in the garage.

    Why does it seem like it's only Kingdom Hearts that's targeted? Out of all the walkthroughs I have showing the opening and ending credits, it seems to be only Kingdom Hearts getting claims. The same goes for other YouTubers.
