Anyone have any good ideas for stopping glow from laptop screen to appease sleeping spouse? | My wife hates it when I bring the laptop to bed because the light annoys her.

Variations On Simple Syrup? | I recently bought a pair of plastic squeeze bottles with the intent of filling them with some homemade simple syrup (it seems like an absurd thing to buy, given how easy it is to make).

What are some examples of large corporations that are not demonized by "THE LEFT?" | I was listening to my dad's take on politics a few days ago (not talking because it's difficult to get a word in edgewise sometimes). He repeatedly made the claim that "THE LEFT" (you have to say it in evil capital letters) demonizes profit and corporations that make large profits. His example was the suggestion of a... |

2-fold question here. Does hearing a particular artist's song in a car commercial make you more or less likely to buy that auto? Do you cry "sellout!", or embrace that the band is getting more exposure? | So I heard a song from 'grizzly bear' last night during the handegg bowl and I have to admit it was weird. Coupled with 'phoenix' being in some recent ones too, I got to thinking...

Guys: do you feel regret that you'll probably never sleep with a model? | My male best friend was looking at some porn and dirty magazines when the thought hit him so hard he had to stop fapping: he would never be able to sleep with a model.

What does it take for you to call in sick at work? | My job allows me to call in sick if need be with no penalties or the need to use vacation days.

Can you imagine life without being connected (to the internet)? What would you do without it? | Personally, as a writer, I would have to do more original research and rely less heavily on the internet, but I would only miss it for a time before other, perhaps more time consuming avenues (conversation, reading books) took over.
Professionally I'm not sure WHAT I'd do without the internet. |
DAE (guys, particularly teenage) cry, but only as a result of a huge amount of built up stress? | I don't know why, but I didn't cry when I found out that either of my grandparents died. The last time I cried of actual sadness was many years ago when I found my dead dog.

A little reasoning behind why I'm asking: I'm an RA for a college, and part of the job involves creating bulletin boards. Twice a year, I get to choose the theme. For the first board, I did a collage of people, animals, and things smiling or b... |

In the interest of equality - FEMALES of Reddit: How do I (a male) make myself look more approachable in public? | Like in a bookstore or at a show. I feel like I always look disinterested, when I'd really be very open to girls talking to me! What are the visual cues that I'm just missing?
