Fellow ents, I have grown our forest by 1.
So the other week I'm talking to a friend at work and the M.J. question pops up. I'm not ashamed that I smoke so i told her and she got real interested and asked if she could try it. Fast forward to today. I twisted up some dank, rolled around campus and initiated her into the wonderful world of cannabis. Good ti...
Clear something up for my friends and I regarding tonight's episode...
My friends and I are running a LOST death pool. My fifth round pick was "Aldo," the character played by Rob McElhenney of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. According to imdb, he was slated to appear in this episode. I could have sworn I spotted him in with the temple people, but my friends claim it wasn't him. So, can...

Awesome Valentines Day Present, Buffalo.
I want to get my boyfriend something or do something awesome for valentines day. He really likes firefly and I was thinking about getting him Jayne's hat, or a one slot toaster that you put into your computer... but I want to surprise him with something. We are going to Buffalo for that weekend so anyone out there know...
Just watched Downloading Nancy...
Downloading Nancy trailer Wow. Grim movie, thought it was really well done, and all of the actors did an amazing job. Why did it do so poorly with critics? **spoilers** I just have to say, I'm so glad that they actually went through with it. It angers me so much when movies have a whole build up to something and co...
Can someone please explain the basic principles of libertarianism?
I'm in high school and took a short facebook political quiz, which said I'm a libertarian. I've never even heard of this so I decided to google it. Essentially what I found was that libertarianism pretty much anti-state control, which I agree with. So basically what I'm wondering is what are libertarian views on the fo...
How-to or live cd to PXE boot a machine to install linux?
I have a laptop with a bad floppy drive and the only usb port is not mounting bootable devices. The only way I'm getting anything on this is via the network.

[TOMT]: Title of a science-fiction novel featuring a robot left on earth as a data collector and messenger for future explorers. [BOOK]
This novel was advertised in OMNI magazine in the early to mid-90s. The only character in the book was a robot / android as described in the post. I remember the cover featured a golden-yellow robot looking up at a starry sky and most of the coloration in the background was in blue / black hues with a frozen appearanc...

Ask Netsec: Is an iFrame that uses SSL inside a non-SSL page remotely secure?
One of my colleagues has captured the imagination of management at work by proposing that we take some of our existing sites (which require transactions) and turn them into Facebook Apps.

Reddit, what tattoos and peircings do you have
Oh hai! Bejamin here. I am curious as to what is out there, seeing we all have awesome taste. Tattoos, peircings, odd haircuts/color, scars anything personal of interest.

I'm looking to study actors and movies.
Howdy guys, (first time poster to /r/movies!) I'm into character animation in 3d (with some interest in branching to other 3D fields.)

I'm trying to find a porno that I saw a few years ago, can you help?
So back a few years ago, when my pornography browsing skills were rather rudimentary, I watched a fantastic video which I haven't been able to find since. I'm hoping that by describing it as well as i can remember it, someone else might know where I can find it again? It's set at a nudist beach, but not amateur, it w...
What was your craziest experience while under the experience of any type of drug?

The only way I can stand the AskReddit and DAE subreddits now is to read the titles as if they are being sarcastic or ironic or trolling. Try it, it actually makes it funny.
For example : **Ladies: What makes you think a guy is creepy? Any stories?** *This one is hilarious because this exact same question has been posted so many times that it has to be a joke at this point*. **Reddit, What songs blow your mind?** *This is to troll bait Redditors into fighting over which Radiohead song i...

Hey Reddit, I'm coming to Chicago. What should I see?
I have been to Chicago before but have always gotten stuck seeing the "touristy" things.

I am for sure going to the Art Institute of Chicago and possibly the Hull House. Anything else I shouldn't m...
IAMA college student who was just diagnosed with OCD. It's actually very difficult and has made my life a lot harder recently, but I like sharing. AMA.

AskGaming: What is the best 'Tower Defense' game you know of? (Alt: what is the best playable web game you know of?)
I am looking for great tower defense and playable web games. I was hoping there was a better list on reddit - but I am not aware of a good list of web/flash games nor tower defense games. Reddits structure doesnt necessarily make it easy to provide lists of links specific to a particular category.
Are you frustrated that Locale beta stopped working without any warning? This one should work until 2035.
Hello reddit, I modified the locale 0.695 beta so it continues to work until February 23, 2035 (0x1DEADB1FF42 in milliseconds). When I modified it I had to sign the application again, so it's very likely that android will refuse to upgrade it and you'll have to uninstall the original one. Unfortunately while uninstal...
[TOMT] I need help finding an Aesop Rock song. [music]
I've been trying to rediscover an Aesop Rock song that I listened to about 2 years ago.

I think the song wasn't released on any albums because I've looked through t...

Hey /fitness, what's your diet?
Do you have a consistent breakfast, lunch or dinner routine? Or do you eat more than 3 meals a day? Or maybe less? I'm curious as to what some of my fellow redditers consume while trying to stay fit.
Alright Missouri it's time to batten down the hatches, hoist the main sails, and all those other salty sayings!
First of all I would like to thank those who replied to my thread. From what I can figure we have about 15 pirates reporting altogether between reddit and the forums. Also, I have noticed the majority of you buccaneers live in the Greater Saint Louis area. I think its high-time we have ourselves a good old fashion meet...

How do we stop "Eternal September"?
Since there have been countless posts that have been up voted about how the (for lack of a better word) "intellect" of the discussions on reddit have degraded, I'm going to assume that this social concept has taken hold on the website.

Mark Kirk (R) won the Illinois primary to go up against Alexi Giannoulias (D) for Obama's vacant Senate seat. Kirk is a moderate Republican, but he's not great. Don't let him win, Illinois.
Kirk has adopted the party line on Health Care. At a pro-Israel rally, Kirk said, “To misquote Shakespeare, something is rotten in Gaza and now it’s time to take out the trash.” Kirk is for permanent detention of all Guantanamo Bay inmates and is now opposed to even transferring them to Illinois. In June, Kirk made ...

Okay. I came out to my mom (or well, was outed) and would like to forward her some literature so I don't have to explain all sorts of common misconceptions to her.

I can tell that she knows very little, but she's not being entirely closed-minded. Anyway, I'm sure there's a page or two out there, but I'm too flustered to wade through the f...

Can anyone think of a valid argument against gay marriage...not involving religion or "morality"
I'm curious. Do people against gay marriage have any valid reasons once you take religion and "morality" out of the picture? I'm from CT and ever since gay marriage has been legal, I have noticed NOTHING different about society, negative or positive. So why are so many people against gay marriage?
