csqcc | Yofi | 1,279,856,844,000 | Hi there,
One of my friends mentioned that she's using a website called ShareBuilder, and while I don't know much about the stock market, that reminded me that I've long wanted to buy a few cheap stocks just so that I can look at tickers for fun and have something to root for. I'm talking probably a <$50 total investment.
Can reddit recommend some sites that makes it easy, safe, and somewhat economical to do this?
Thanks! | AskReddit | jewish |
csspa | fakeredditor | 1,279,873,423,000 | Hi, Reddit! Hope you can pull through for me like you've pulled through for so many other needy souls.
I need some "feet on the ground" info about Hong Kong. Or maybe just someone with better Google-Fu than I currently possess. I need to find a street address in HK and a florist who speaks English. Allow me to explain....
A short while ago, I met a great girl... gorgeous, funny, smart, similar family to mine, same values, etc. Really a perfect package. I'm totally smitten. We've been openly flirting for weeks and we're talking about dating. However, with my luck, just a short while after we met, she flew off to Hong Kong for a 10 week internship and we've been stuck communicating over the intarwebz. Needless to say, I'd like to do something a bit more tangible.
I would REALLY like to surprise her by having a bouquet of her favorite flowers delivered to her office. She has a hard-ass for a boss and I know they would cheer her up something huge. I've spent a fair amount of time searching and all my googling has only yielded addresses for the main offices in Beijing ( [Link 1](http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/static/contactus.html) and [Link 2](http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/static_e/Contact_Us.html) ) and I certainly can't ask her for her work address without raising complete suspicion and ruining the surprise.
She is working in the HK office of The China Daily newspaper. Anyone think they can help me find the street address of that office?
And then of course, once I can find the address, I need to find a florist who speaks English and will take Paypal (I'm not sure I can trust giving my CC number to a purported florist in Asia. That's asking for bad news).
So Reddit, think we can make this happen? I'll be forever indebted to you. | AskReddit | jewish |
csunu | soopeh | 1,279,888,723,000 | Right, lets set the scene....
My sister is recently 18 and she works for a gym/swimming baths in a big hotel.
The other day a man called the front desk to speak to her, and asked her by name. When he spoke to her, he said he watched her every day, and wanted to know when she was going to do the towels. This freaked my sister the fuck out, understandably, so she just nervously said goodbye and hung up.
She told her manager and he took note, and called the police.
Cue 15 minutes later, he calls again and gets on the phone to her (the receptionist must not have noticed the voice) and then offered her £6000 for her to spend the night with him. I'm guessing he didn't mean just walk around with him and have a meal and go home seperately either. Cue more freaking out and another call to the police.
Luckily the police are taking it seriously and are trying to trace the calls.
She is, however, still working at the place, and being her brother I am still a bit worried that she is there where apparently the guy has been 'watching her.' So now I'm getting all freaked out.
So has anyone else had any experiences like this? Male or female. Would like to know how it ended up.
TL;DR: My 18 year old sister was being stalked at work, and got offered money to spend the night with said stalker. I'm worried she is still working there. Anyone else had experiences like this?
**Edit:** All those looking for pics, I would post them, but I doubt my sister would be too happy with random people from the internets fapping over her.
**Edit 2:** and as solidblu said: "Or the possibility of getting new stalkers where the consequences will never be the same..."
**Edit 3:** The main point of this post was to see if people have had similar experiences.
**Edid 4:** Remind me never to post anything like this again to reddit, ever. | AskReddit | jewish |

For the curious, here are pics.

Edit: Update - Well, by 5pm the bump in the middle had gotten darker and shinier, with a small dark spot in the middle, and had become a bit painful. We went to a doctor and he announced it was an abscess. He sliced it open, put in a drain, and bandaged it up. Got a script for antibiotics and pain killers. We don't know if it was a bite that did it, or if it happened some other way, but that's how the story ends. May do blood work to make sure he didn't get West Nile or anything. Thanks for all the suggestions! | AskReddit | jewish |

ctdtp | Jumba | 1,280,025,521,000 | Well yeah, in 3 days I will be moving to the Netherlands to continue with my studies. The reason I'm moving so far away is because I live in the Dutch Caribbean, and we only get financing if we go to the Netherlands. And since there are no decent universities on the islands I don't really have a choice.
I'm going to the Delft Universitu of Technology, and I'll probably be living in The Hague. It's the first time I'm moving away from home, so it's going to be a whole new experience. Luckily quite a lot of my friends are going too (basically my entire class), but I figure that without my parents around things will be very different.
I've been to the Netherlands before, so I know how trains and all that stuff work, but I know nothing about living on my own, the best dishes to cook, etc. So any advice is appreciated, I need all that I can get!
In case you're wondering, I'm currently 18 and I am going to study Aeronautical Engineering. So if you happen to go to Delft, some advice regarding the school would be great too!

* Specific Reddit-Memories you have of a submission?
* Some sort of Reddit-related anecdote (like the Soapier story)?
While Reddit shares many universal-memes with the Internet, I'd love to see if I am forgetting/missing any of the ones we have around here.

cufls | Rusty-Shackleford | 1,280,275,556,000 | You see them everywhere. Obviously Reddit has upvotes and downvotes. But so does Yahoo Answers, Youtube, and the like. The New York Times has reader recommendations. Facebook is all about how many people "Like" something. I remember when popularity ratings were less common. This is not a condemnation of a rating system (such as a 1 to 5), but just the fact that comments and article submissions are subject to what is basically **an online popularity contest for every single thought ever committed to text!** It's aggravating and stressful. Does it bug anyone else? What if reddit did away with publishing upvote/downvote statistics?

cuja2 | Unlucky13 | 1,280,298,634,000 | **Brief Background:** In 2008 I was caught with less than a gram of marijuana and a bowl during a routine traffic stop (10mph over). I was charged with possession of Marijuana. My (cheap) lawyer told me that he could have it knocked down to possession of paraphernalia which amounts to a small fine with a year of probation. I naively agreed to that. My other option would be the "First Offender" rule- to have my license suspended for six months with a year of drug testing. After that my record was cleared.
Fast forward to today and that charge is still on my record, past the time limits for an appeal. I've been turned down residency at an apartment, been denied the opportunity to volunteer for the Red Cross, possibly denied by Americorps (actual reason for denial unknown), and just recently turned down by a job that I was qualified for due to my record.
I am trying to build a case to take to my state representative. I want the First Offender rule to apply to paraphernalia charges and I believe it's only fair considering if I was charged for the possession of the drug I'd be fine, but the device to use it is a life long burden?

I've considered talking to the ACLU, but I don't know the way to go about that. Starting next week I will be requesting written statements from the organizations and businesses stated above saying that they denied me due to the charge.
Should I get friends and people to write good shit about me or something? I am a good person, I've always done a lot for other people, no one that knows me would ever state otherwise.

cukh6 | charkshark | 1,280,307,958,000 | Well, maybe not so suddenly. Over the course of the past few weeks I've noticed that it's become significantly more difficult to organise my thoughts, and, as a result, write, construct arguments, etc. Usually I'd consider myself somewhat competent in those areas, but not anymore. Whenever I attempt to write something structurally coherent, I hit a major mental block. I feel as if I have no control over my writing or speech; what flows out is simply an amalgamation of streams of thought without underlying structure.
Now, this really isn't all too specific and I don't expect a comprehensive answer, but I'm wondering what could have caused this. Sleep deprivation? Too much language input? (I read mostly in languages other than English but the majority of my interaction on a day-to-day basis is in English)

cvhfx | soopeh | 1,280,497,497,000 | Over the recent years, multitasking while driving has been clamped down on in most western countries. I.e. Talking on a mobile phone/texting. Completely right in my opinion.
Now, your car is one of the last places where you can smoke in peace without someone giving you a glare as if you are openly molesting a child. Quite a few countries are leaning towards banning it.
If they do that, shouldn't they ban eating/drinking/smelling your fingers after scratching your crotch while driving?
Thoughts? | AskReddit | jewish |

cvkxm | Vindexus | 1,280,513,448,000 | More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin_%28game%29
Basically each player in the game gets a target who they have to assassinated by using a water gun or a NERF gun. You're given some personal information on your target so you can find them. After you kill someone you get their target and the last person standing wins.
It's played 24/7 for days on end until there's a winner. It's played everywhere except for specific safe zones.
I'm thinking this sounds pretty fun and I might even do one in my home town. Anybody here done this? How was it? How was it organized? What could've been better? | AskReddit | jewish |

cvoud | Dev__ | 1,280,536,090,000 | Personally I love certain accents on girls, if you're Scottish girl I want you to marry me.
Don't get too region specific though either either, a US state or a country is fine. The accent doesn't have to be an anglophone one either but the person must be speaking English.
Ctrl + F your accent then upvote - otherwise add it to the list for others to upvote. I'd like to see what accents girls like so maybe include the gender e.g. Irish Female, New York Male etc.
We should see a cool poll and maybe some interesting results. | AskReddit | jewish |

I am having hard time and low progress in studies at the university. It's not for lack of time, but for lack of motivation and realistic study plan, i guess.
Could you share your study tricks? What keeps you on track? How do you force yourself into learning and making measurable progress? What are your most successful methods: restricting internet access, drafting daily/weekly study plans, any role models or helpful books?
For completeness of information I am studying math, learning french and would like to start preparing for the GRE. Time is not an issue :)

1dhobi | CoolMachine | 1,367,427,309,000 | I need an animal-savvy courier to fly with a cat from NYC to Oakland, CA. I will not ship the cat in cargo.
Background:
- The "animal airline" that opened a few years ago is out of business.
- All the other related companies I found either "ship" the animal or drive it--neither is good for this cat.
- I've only found one animal-transport service to do this for $2k--more than I can afford.

1dh0ef | chinagreenelvis | 1,367,399,583,000 | I noticed that a printer was offering double-sided paper at a lesser price than single-sided paper, which makes complete sense. You're using the same amount of ink but half the paper.
Still, this brought me to an interesting question, and I'm not sure how to do the math to figure it out. Which is ultimately worth more? The paper, or the ink?
My gut says the ink. But I'm more interested in how one goes about trying to actually answer this question...
EDIT: Apparently few of you understand the printing terms "single-sided" and "double-sided." If you don't, you are either not qualified to comment, or you are a clever jackass. In the second case, [I applaud you.](http://assets0.ordienetworks.com/images/GifGuide/clapping/conan.gif)
EDIT 2: As I said, I don't care which is more expensive as much as I care what the methodology used is. Imagine an 11x18 peice of paper with text on it. Now imagine an 11x18 peice of paper with a giant black square on it. Which is more expensive? The text, the square, or the paper? (Keep in mind most copy shops charge the same for a single sheet no matter what you're printing - they charge based on the kind of paper you're using and the size of the paper, as well as color vs black and white - not how much ink you use.) | AskReddit | jewish |

My grandpa died a few summers ago and I got to see him before he passed away but he was not very lucid most of the time. Because of that, his last words to me were a little weird.
My parents lived on the other side of the state and he and some friends drove a long ways to come see me right after I was born and being tired they stopped at a motel. Apparently someone got shot and killed at the motel right below them either during, or right after they got there and the other guys refused to stay at the motel, but my grandfather would have none of it and stayed and had no problems. That was the story.
Kind of a weird thing to tell your grandson, but I think he was trying to say something like "I love you, don't worry about me and death, it's nothing to be afraid of." | AskReddit | jewish |
