Why isn't there some form of reverse eBay posting? Say I want something and am willing to pay x with maybe x above that? That way sellers could quickly find buyers in their prefered price range.

Seems that is basically how selling goes, is there a reason it couldn't work in reverse? Say I want X, will pay X at Buy It Now but will pay X+10% (or whaver) if it's an auction.

Kindof like the grand exchange on runescape

What is your earliest complete memory?

My earliest memory is from preschool when a car caught on fire right in front of the school parking lot. I remember that the school had a large window at the front (like 10' x 8'), and the car was parked on the road just in front of the parking lot entrance. I don't remember how the first started, but I remember seeing the firemen drive up after several minutes, and when they cut opened the hood to spray water on the engine there was a huge cloud of smoke and flames.

I remember looking at a light on the ceiling while my mom changed my diaper. I'm pretty sure I was like 2 years old and I always thought it was cool and strange that I remembered that one thing, out of everything else... I figure it's because it was a repeated occurence that it stuck with me.

I want to get birth control, but I don't have any insurance. Has anyone gone to Planned Parenthood for some? What was the experience like?

My boss said that he was going to supply me with health insurance after 6 months of working with him. It's been over 2 years and I haven't seen anything. I'm 19 years old living with my boyfriend of over a year. It's about damn time I get some birth control. Can anyone tell me what Planned Parenthood is like?

It varries on the place, I've been not for birthcontrol and they've been very welcoming and nice. But I've herd a few bad stories from people. It varies

Why are most people in my age group (18-25) so afraid of waiting until after 25 to start thinking about marriage and children?

My personal experiences make me want to establish myself in a career, get a substantial bank account, and enough life experience before I want to enter the institution of marriage. And especially all of those things before I have children.( I want to wait at least until I am 30) A lot of my peers talk about it like its a game, and they are just expected to get into it as soon as possible. how do you feel about it personally, and why do you think this happens so much?

Some people want different things than you. Personally, I plan on waiting until I'm at least 30 to have kids, and I probably won't even have kids.

If you leave someone you recently met when they discover they have a fatal disease, are you a ****?

I knew a bloke in his twenties. Friendly happy guy, the kind everyone wants to be mates with.He gets a new girlfriend. Everything is fine for a month or so. New girlfriend starts to have weird coordination problems, like falling when walking across a flat surface. She goes to see a doctor, she has some weird neuro-degenerative disease. Pretty much falls apart emotionally. Doctor says she only has a few years left to live (Literally a few: As in 2 or 3.) and life will never be normal again. She already has to start using crutches. Eventually she will graduate to wheelchairs and assisted living (Will need someone to bathe her, clean her after toilet, cook for her, etc etc) After a few weeks the guy decides he doesn't want to be part of this any more and leaves. She says he's a bastard and proceeds to tell everyone, including his parents and friends what a scumbag he is. I've got no proof, but this is actually a true story, not a hypothetical question. It's not as if it's such an unlikely turn of events. Anyway what I'd like to know is, ... was this guy an **hole or not? My feeling is that he wasn't. If you answer, could you please also state your gender? I'm very curious to see the male/female divide here.

How do I help my mom who has been forced to living in nursing homes for 10+ years (shes 51)?

My mom has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. She has been living in nursing homes for the past 10 years, shes just reached her 51st birthday this year. She has been getting much better these days, due to medication or she has just learned to hide most of her paranoid thoughts. She is currently in a nursing home, she tells me shes feels like a prisoner, begs me to get her out. Myself only being 23 I dont even know where to start with this. Most of my family has given up over the years or are too selfish to really give a fuck. Im hoping someone has advice on getting her in an independent home. I could use some advice on dealing with this too, my heart literally aches every time I talk to her. Ive been mentally breaking down about this the older I get

What are some coincidences that nobody would believe if you told them?

But, obviously, happened. I was in a car accident last November. I totaled my car. And, it was raining and coincidentally "November Rain" was on the stereo at the time of the accident (CD form). It was a bad accident and I was terrified of driving, etc-well, I got the courage to go driving again, months later-I was with my dad-and I decided to take the same path I took when I had my accident. I shit you not, November Rain started playing on the RADIO as I approached the "scene of the accident." When is it ever on the radio? It's not the nineties. It was so kismet. Like, the full circle. Additionally, do you believe in fate? Things happening for a reason? Karma? Any of that Edit: Two years after my parents had been married, they were discussing college/parties/ etc. My mom mentioned how one time this guy and his friends dropped her and her friend off at home, and her friend puked in the car. Turns out, the driver of that car was my dad. They both just had to put the pieces together to figure it out. They had met in college, years before they "met" really...

I realized I had two friends called John Pardue which is quite a rare surname. Was on facebook and realized the have the same birthday. It was quite confusing. EDIT: No, No and No.

My friend, shes asian, sucks at drinking. She passes out after 2 shots. One weekend, we were very afraid because she was literally just gone.

Her face gets SUPER red after half a shot.

Having the "earthquake" in Boston today got me wondering. Anyone been in a crazy earthquake/tsunami, etc?

The Columbus Day windstorm in Oregon in the early 60s was the first one that I knew what was happening. Years earlier, my mother lost a lot of credibility one night when she bundled 4 children into the "root cellar" under the house. She was crying and praying and babbling and touching each one of us. There was a loud wind and she calmed down after that. Maybe 30 years later I drove over to the old place. I could still see where the twister went through. Missed the house by maybe 75 feet.

I didn't fill out the bubble sheet on my AP World History test. Reddit, what's the stupidest thing you've ever done?

I managed to get a 1 on my AP World History test last year because I only filled out the answers in the book and not the bubble answer sheet. There were circles in the test book that you could fill out but meant nothing and weren't graded. I don't think the proctor ever mentioned it so I must have missed it in the directions. My dad called the AP people and they said I got a 3 or above but wouldn't give me the score.

Why do fellow redditors condemn tattoos in posts that have to do with tattoos?

People who condemn or shit on tats. If you don't agree with tats, why bother even clicking the link and then commenting? Your stupid, self absorbed comment isn't going to make a difference to anyone, especially the person who ALREADY has the tat. It goes against the culture of reddit that says to be nice to people or you get downvoted. However, the culture is simply flipped when someone has a tat. If they have a tattoo, it is reddit approved to insult and degrade a person, no matter how great the tat is. I'm pretty sure they are aware it will fade and sag with age. You're not introducing any new or relevant information. You're just stating how YOU feel. The dude with the SEGA/Sonic tats on both arms had amazing tats that had beautiful color... However, Reddit had to ruin the post with stupid posts. The art, nor the artist got the respect they truly deserved because everyone was busy shitting on the fact that this guy had tats in the first place. TL;DR: Reddit is a fickle dick, depending on the current, popular opinion.

Probably not.

Reddit, you were on the Global News today. How do you feel about that?

So, i was just sitting on my cousins couch doing some homework, when i turned on the tv and started watching the news. It was a story about that slut that killed herself that everyone is trying to make out like the innocent victim, so i went back to my homework until i heard the fake as fuck white guy say "Well, as we all know those trolls are real jerks! and we have found out of a place called Reddit, that is the center of bullying and hatred!" Now this pissed me off, because not even adults can see the truth that we try to tell them. They made Reddit out to be a site full of cruel, disgusting, useless, low life, good for nothing, pedophiles. We all know the real story about the girl that killed herself, we all know the reality of it, we all know what she did, we all know that the people who are crying over it are really fake idiots that would no doubt be talking shit about the girl if she was still alive. So Reddit, what do you think about how the news is making you all look?

So she deserved to die because she was a 'slut'? I'd wager you'd enjoy sex if you ever got any.
