What are some of the things you see as inappropriate but most people see them as normal?

Leaving the house in PJs or other slob-like clothing (i.e. ratty/ripped clothing, shirts that are 3x too big, sweatpants and slippers, etc.). That's the only thing I can think of right now.

Have you noticed a reduction in the number of questions you've been receiving lately? How many questions do you get in the average day (or week)?

Yes I have! It varies anywhere from 0 to around 10 a day (on a good day) now whereas I used to get like 20+ a day. In the past day or two it's picked up again but only because like two of the people who follow me decided to do small spams recently.

What items were on your Christmas list this year? (If you didn't make a physical list, list some things you hope to get for Christmas if you celebrate Christmas)

I had some books, video and board games, a couple DVDs, some clothing, a thermos and reusable water bottle, a jewelry rack, phone cases, bed spreads//duvet covers, phone charger, candles, eos lip balm, and a couple CDs.

(I apologise for all the Christmas questions delete if you don't want to answer I won't mind 🌸) - what are some of your favourite things about Christmas Day?

youcuntx’s Profile PhotoJ.
Honestly the only thing I really love about Christmas day itself is being able to finally give my loved ones the gifts I bought for them. I LOVE doing that. The food is a close second though ;p

I can relate to your answer regarding feeling stuck. Are you doing anything to actively change your life or are you like me and hope the universe intervenes and sets you up on the course you are supposed to be on?

(this is wildly late and I don't remember if you sent this off anon or not but oh well) I'm doing a little bit of both actually. I'm in a bit of a pickle because of family requirements in foreign countries so at this point I can't even really apply for much else besides my original goal, which I won't even be able to work at until this fall anyhow. So at this point, unless the universe intervenes to help me out, I'm not really actively doing anything else to help myself out anymore. I've done all I can for the time being considering my situation, I think.

Have you ever used a “photobooth”??? (not referencing the Apple kind, where you stay comfortably at home… But the one where you actually go to and pay money for, and occasionally they provide props? :P) … If so, do you like it?

I have! My boyfriend and I actually used one a couple summers ago and then used another one the following summer and ended up doing the exact same poses in the same order totally by accident. I love photo booths! They're fun little things. It just sucks that they're $5 a piece -_- And they're tight little spaces so that's no fun.

What will be your new years resolution for 2017?

(this is wicked late, I'm sorry) My main two goals were to lose weight and find a job. One is proving ridiculously hard and the other is proving to be ridiculously time consuming so far.

Do you edit your pictures? How many apps do you have and which app do you use the most to edit your pictures? If you don't edit your pictures, what is the reason behind it?

I do edit my photography just because the pictures often don't come out quite as bright as my eyes see the shot in real life. I don't make them vastly different from their original form, I simply touch up the brightness/contrast and maybe saturation, etc. I'll never crop anything or photoshop anything out of or into a photo though. I currently have one app that I use to edit pictures (whitagram) and one that I use to make collages (moldiv). If it's for Instagram/Snapchat or just a basic selfie I rarely really edit any of my pictures.

Inspired by a hashtag trend on twitter: What is it like growing up with your name?

People constantly misspelled and/or mispronounced my name in school and my teachers always started the year off by taking roll and saying something like "Is it... C..?" when they got to my name. I had a friend who misspelled my name for almost 8 years straight. When I was in elementary school I won a few spelling bees so the teacher who ran the spelling bee knew who I was by the time I ended up having her as my own teacher in 8th grade-- and she still misspelled my name after knowing me at least 4 years (and being in charge of the SPELLING bee).

Is there a movie that everyone likes that you don't care for?

I've never been huge on Beauty and the Beast but everyone seems to ADORE that movie-- even more so now that the new one is coming out soon. Same for The Lion King.

Do you think you'll ever get a pit bull? They are very sweet dogs indeed from what I've read.

As much as I love them, I don't think I'd ever get one unless a friend needed to get rid of one or the dog was going to be put down. I'm too attached to other breeds to choose a pit bull above others.

Do you think that 'banned breeds' of dogs is a good thing? Should a country/state ban a certain breed of dog? Why/why not?

youcuntx’s Profile PhotoJ.
Hell no. Dogs aren't the issue here-- it's their owners. Granted, there will always be that one dog that gives the others a bad name despite having owners with every good intention out there. But that doesn't mean an entire breed should be banned. I look at it as if we were banning certain types of people. Not all black people are bad but because some turned out to be thugs and murderers, the rest are all to blame for that? No way. That isn't fair and everyone knows it. Because some Hispanic people are tied to cartels and gangs, the rest are all to blame too? No way. That isn't fair either and everyone knows it. Because some white guys went on a shooting rampage and killed a bunch of people, every white person should be considered bad too? No way, not fair either. The same exact thing goes for dog breeds. Because some people are horrid abusive owners and train their dogs to fight then put them in dog fighting rings, all pit bulls are violent animals? Noooo way. Pit bulls are some of the absolute sweetest animals and they get the brunt of the bad treatment a lot of the time. It's absurd and I will never support the banning of dog breeds-- especially when the banned dog breed will be put down in shelters etc. where there's "no other option".

Would you like to go on a date with someone you meet on the Internet?

Well I met my boyfriend online and he lives 3,000 miles away so not only did we go on a date after meeting but he also lived in my house with me for a week the first time we met in person. Should we ever break up I wouldn't be totally opposed to online dating again so long as it was local. I really don't ever want to do long distance again.

How often do you wake up in the middle of the night?

I used to wake up once or twice to go to the bathroom but now I sleep like a rock straight through the night, except for rare circumstances where I might have had too much water or tea right before bed.

Why do guys think underwear questions will make girls like them?

I don't know if guys actually think that will make a girl like them but I don't know of any reasons why anyone would think those types of questions are appropriate under any circumstances-- except maybe a boyfriend or other (gay or female) friend thinking of getting a girl a gift??

When you have a headache or migraine, what helps you continue the day and push through it or what helps you get rid of the pain?

youcuntx’s Profile PhotoJ.
Thankfully, my migraines go away relatively quickly with a couple of Advils and a nap. I'm desperately hoping that as I age they won't progress to be like the ones some of my family gets. Theirs are debilitating and last at least a few days. I'm not sure how anyone can function with migraines that bad. We have a family friend who gets migraines so bad she has to go to the hospital for legit shots of more severe medications.

abortion: pro-choice or pro-life?

Generally speaking I'm pro-choice because I don't believe in telling others what they can/should or can't/shouldn't do with their own bodies-- especially considering abortion is not the actual murder of a real life, functional, self-reliant human being. However, on a personal basis I'm pro-life except under dire circumstances like the child not living very long or the child being guaranteed to live a life with a debilitating disability that would prevent them from ever being remotely independent.

Is there anyone on Ask that you would like to meet in real life, or are you happy just being online friends?

ihaslequestion’s Profile Photo✨Questionpanda
It'd be pretty cool to meet any of the people I follow eventually, but seeing as I'm not incredibly close even online with any of them I don't really foresee that happening any time soon, if ever. I'm down for either option though. Online friends are just as great as "real life" friends.

What was the last movie you watched? On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate the movie? Would you recommend it to others? Why or why not?

I watched Balto earlier tonight and that's a cute movie. I'd recommend it, maybe like a 7/10. It's your typical cutesy animated movie and rarely will I not recommend one of those.

Ever just glare at someone who won't shut up?

I have mastered my mom's "mom glare" when I see horribly misbehaved kids who are obviously misbehaving simply because no one is paying them any attention. But I don't really glare at someone who won't shut up. I sort of just zone out and quit paying attention to what they're saying.

❄ what do you typically like to do on snow days and/or days with bad weather ??

poetalunam’s Profile Photoleigh; ✨️
I LOVE when I'm visiting my family in Europe and there's a rainstorm. The room I stay in is on the top floor and the windows are huge but the roof sticks out enough to prevent literally even a single raindrop from getting in so I leave the windows wide open and just sit by them with the breeze on my face while I listen to the rain fall. It's even better when there's thunder to go along with it. But here at home the bad weather just comes off as miserable and ugly so I just stay inside with the windows shut and I do the same stuff I do any other day-- watch tv, surf the internet, read, exercise, etc.

❄ does your area tend to get a lot of snow ?? if so, what's the most amount of snow you've ever personally experienced ??

poetalunam’s Profile Photoleigh; ✨️
We literally never get snow here, ever. Like I think my dad was a kid the last time it snowed here. We get hail sometimes-- rarely. And we're finally getting rain again this year so that's nice. I mean I've seen snow and been in snow and whatnot but never around here where I live.

I recently learned that there is such a thing as therapy llamas: http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/14/health/llama-pet-therapy-oregon-feat/. What do you think of this idea? Would petting friendly llamas make you feel better if you were in a hospital or nursing home? Would you share a "carrot kiss" them?

Don't llamas have a reputation for spitting in people's faces?? Yeah, no thanks. I'm sure they can be really cute and sweet and all but the key word there is *can, not *are. I'm all for it for others if they can be helped by it but I'd SO much rather have therapy dogs because those are some sweetie pies that never fail to be total love bugs. And honestly dogs are just so much cuter than llamas. I would never share a "carrot kiss" with a llama. I wouldn't even do that with a dog and I like dogs 100x better than llamas, haha.

Haha, oh dude, I used to think listening to Nickelback made me hardcore. I still like them, but the mindset has shifted haha. 7 Days To The Wolves is soo good. That epic middle section where it's just the drums and the orchestra before the guitars crunch in. No words. Love it.

Ahah, Nickelback isn't nearly as bad as people try to make them out to be?? I don't know why they get so much hate. Yaaaas, that part of the song is great!
