Trees, would you please open your Bible to the book of Daniel chapter 4 verse 20.

Reddit, are you balding? If so, how do you fix it?
I've always had a widow's peak but I'm starting to notice that it is receding a little bit. Lots of people think that it's funny how other people lose their hair until it happens to themselves. How do you fix baldness? Is there really a miracle drug out there? And for the ladies of Reddit, is bald as bad as some men...
Lonely girl seeks stable man
So my boyfriend ran away. Not from me, but still away. He is only 20 and he has some mental issues that he struggles to deal with. Two days ago, he was planning a visit to my new house where I live with one other girl. On Wednesday, I found that he had ended our oh so important facebook relationship and his crazy ex gi...
How does adrenaline affect you, gentlefolks of reddit?
I'm not a physically active person *at all*. One of my friends and I just got into an impromptu wrestling match, which he started, catching me quite off guard. I assume my reactions were influenced by an adrenaline rush of sorts, because I easily had him pinned within a few seconds, and now I can't stop shaking, and ...

Gaming reddit, i'm gonna unleash some Baldur's Gate awesome on you now.
Today I was driving back from work and saw the registration number KGX. Anyhoo, i was thinking what it reminded me of, and for some reason the name Kangaxx came into my head. After much thinking I decided it was the lich from Baldur's Gate 2, anyhoo. When i got home i looked it up and I was right! Now, this may not be ...
Where do I start in regards to baking?
Hi all. I love to cook, but have never baked anything. My mom thinks I would be good at it (she is a pastry chef trained at Le Cordon Bleu) but I have no idea where to start. I don't like measuring things when I cook which seems to be a bit more essential when baking. Any easy, not so rigid recipes you can recommend to...
Ask r/web_design - are "share this" buttons a waste of space?
I'm talking about those endless rows of "share" buttons under articles/posts for Facebook, Twitter, Digg, Reddit, SU, Technorati, Newsvine, delicious, etc. I'm thinking about ditching them in favor of a cleaner layout, but I'd be interested in getting other opinions - has anyone seen these buttons actually generate ...
Mid-Atlantic redditors: Yet another death storm is bringing certain icy doom to our beleaguered region. How will you spend your last hours on earth?
My answer is the same as it was for the last storm - I'm buying beer and preparing for the complete, inevitable and hilarious failure of all basic human functions in DC when more than 1/2 inch of snow falls.
IAmA former telemarketer. AMA.
For a brief six months, I was a top-earning telemarketer for a company called Xentel. They are the ones who solicit donations on behalf of groups like the "Fraternal Order of Police." Conscience finally caught up with me and I quit this job, never to return. I learned more about telemarketing in those six months than I...
Does an NTP preference make us more open to conspiracy/far fetched theories?
I am somewhat of a conspiracy sympathist. A lot of my friends are as well, and nearly all of my close friends are NTs with way more than my fair share of NTPs. Some things are straight forward with a bit of research, should fluoride be in the water? Absolutely not, in my not so humble opinion. Is the official 9/11 ...

I'm now back at school making and applying math/computer models in biology. I've never taken any formal courses on set theory, but I'm pretty ...
Sensa! Has anyone used it????
I am thinking about using "Sensa" to help me lose weight. I want to know as much as I can about it, but I've had some trouble finding anything significant by doing a Google search.

Chronos and metal detectors.
My 48 hours old chronos stopped working the other day, while I was at the airport. It was definetely working on my way to the airport and it wasn't at the gate anymore.

Wife having twins. Need your ideas for a birth gift (please).
My wife and I are expecting twins in a few days. I'd like to buy her some kind of gift to show my appreciation for the many baby-kicks to her cervix for the last 34+ weeks.

I worked in the building next to the I-35W bridge in Minneapolis before and after collapse. AMA.
I wasn't in the building when it happened, and luckily no one I knew was on it. I watched them haul away the wreckage and build the new bridge, though I quit the job before it was completed. I know a bit about the rescue from an extended conversation I had with a MNDOT employee who was heavily involved. AMA
Looking for advice on changing server hardware
Right now I've got a headless server stowed away in my roommate's room (that's where Comcast comes out of the floor). The server is this nasty full ATX Dell XPS from 7 years ago. Pentium 4 3.06GHz, 1GB of PC3200 RAM, and two HDD. The thing sounds like a jet turbine, especially on hot days, cause it has a trillion fa...
Does Hulu, Netflix and Youtube completely lie with their ability to stream HD video, or is my ISP full of it?
I pay $67 a month for 16Mb cable from my ISP, all three of these streaming sites say that with 5Mb I can get full HD. I can never get anything more than the lowest quality from any of them and even then I have to buffer allot. My speedtests from any location on speedtest.net is 1.5-2.5Mb. But if I test my ISP's speed...
Developers! In a standard 9-5 work day, what percent of the work day are you effectively productive?
I would say that in an average work day, I am only actually productive for about 3.5 of the 8 hours I am on site. This is actual time entering code, or hacking at the database, or reading work email. What say you?
So what are your feelings about differences in age in relationships?
I ask in a general sense, and because I find myself kind of stuck at the moment. I have a bit of a crush on girl, but she's 20 and I'm 26 (27 in a few months). I mean technically she passes the divide in half and add seven test...but I can't help but think that when I was her age, she was in middle school...when 9/11 h...

What's the point of skill testing questions?
I remember a while back I was at McDonalds. They had the monopoly thing and I won a free burger. So I go to redeem it and I had to answer some skill testing question.

Reddit developers - The lack of a functioning search is causing me to reconsider my relationship with you. The search bar stares ever-so-tauntingly... I can't take the teasing much longer.
*Waves the reddit flag - dripping with the blood of thousands of pedobears* I was kind of miffed a few weeks ago when I couldn't do a search to find a post from a few hours ago. I was slightly inconvenienced yesterday when I wanted to find another lost post. I would really be okay with a half-attempt at a temporary s...
Am I the only one who doesn't enjoy webcomics?
My friends have always sent me links to things like pennyarcade or xkcd and very rarely I will get a laugh out of any them. Am I alone? I grew up playing a lot of games on the internet (warcraft, diablo, counter strike, team fortress, etc) so I think I have a good sense of all those internet memes. I am open to sugg...
Did anyone else notice the new sound between scenes in the premiere of LAX?
There is a new sound when the show flashes from the Island to scenes off the Island. I think this has to do with a Parallel universe that was created after the explosion of the H-Bomb that Juliette said "worked". Did anyone else notice this new exotic noise? It sounds like a helicopter played backwards.

Can someone explain the process by which fast food turns into waste so quickly?
How is it possible that you can eat a fast food meal and have diarrhea within a half hour? Does the food actually travel through your digestive system that fast, or is there some other process at work? I know this seems like a disgusting question, but I really am curious.
Why so much salt and so little pepper?
Why is it they seem to manage to fit around 52lbs of salt into each of those little paper packets of salt? The same packets for pepper always seem to have roughly 8 grains of black pepper in them. Do people really need that much salt and so little pepper?

Juliet's flashback in The Incident
