I suffer from a severe case of smelly feet.
I've tried all the usual methods of overcoming this;
washing them, spraying body spray on them, and even using odour eaters on them. However this does nothing, and the ssmell of my feet overpowers everything.
What should i do?
Posted by SnowBear
cut them off right now

You need to wear more breathable footwear. The problem of smelly feet is caused by bacteria thriving in the warm moist environment. Looser footwear, or a more breathable fabric will inhibit the growth of this bacteria. Also a change in diet may help reduce the odours expelled in your sweat.

what was your first fone and what is your favourite /// ? tia
Posted by mixin
even when i dont wear shoes, if ive been sitting around at home all day. They still smell....
any suggestions on the diet change?
Posted by BobaFett
of course they smell, they grow out from your bottom.

I suggest you need to exfoliate a layer or two of skin from your feet. Wash them twice a day with antibacterial soap and also rub them with a pumice stone. Wear shoes/socks as little as possible. Continue this for a fortnight and your smelly feet problem will be gone. It will also help to throw your shoes in the washing machine.

@switchbitch - Here's my 'Q' : How do you overcome deep 'depression' ? This is just not an ordinary one mate, I even am thinking of slashing my 'wrist' a couple of days back !
Posted by switchbitch
You need to determine whether your depression is being caused by a specific situation. If so, the first thing to do is discover the root of the problem and face it head on. Sometimes depression can be caused by a general lack of direction or motivation in life. This situation is a vicious circle of lethergy causing more depression and vice versa. Get yourself a goal or ambition; work hard for a year and go travel to exotic places. Maybe you would benefit from a career change, or even a complete overhaul of your life. Depression is an interesting topic; its apparent that happiness is something we can only hold on to for brief periods of time, before that "happy" situation becomes normality, and we increase our own expectations of what we need to make us happy again. What determines our emotional state is governed by how we compare our past to what we expect from our future.

Here's my question:
Given that time and space are intertwined and presumably infinate, and that the speed of light is constant and that no object can travel faster than the speed of light unless it has zero mass, and that general relativity could be regarded as making the Newtonian theory of gravitation redundant...
If you un-did your belly button, would your bum fall off?

- can you help me find another word for 'synonym'?
- If a person told you they were a pathological liar, should you believe them?
- try to solve this... There were three guys at a bar, and they had to pay $30, so they paid $10 each.. so $10+$10+$10 = $30 But hey... there was a mistake, they had to pay $25 instead of $30 actually, so they got five $1 coins back and they leave a $2 tip. So here's the thing: Everyone payed $10, minus they $1 they got back, it's $9 each, so $9x3 = $27 + the $2 tip it's = $29, but in fact they payed $30... so where's the missing $1? Solve it and you might just get that $1
Posted by BobaFett
will /// manufacture mobile fones again?
Posted by switchbitch
I said one at a time!
@bobafett- No.
@jim- Another word for synonym is synonyme, which is a valid spelling.
Yes, you should believe a liar. If he is a liar, he is telling the truth. If not, he is lying, which makes him a liar.
The missing dollar is not missing at all of course. The patrons pay $10 each, $30. They are given back $5 which is $1.66666666667 each. They leave a tip of $2, which is $0.66666666667 each. The beer, if thats what they are buying, costs $25, plus a $2 tip equals $27. But they paid $30... The discrepancy lies in the divisions of 2 and 5 by 3. $1.66666666667-$0.66666666667 equals $1. $27 plus $1 each equals $30.
@cycovision no, you cannot undo your belly button and it is in no way connected to your bottom.
Posted by Cycovision
@switch
Cheers mate, I'll give up trying to undo it. Nice work on the $30 puzzle by the way
Posted by swazi
wow, im pretty impressed, id have never worked the whole bar joke out, ok hers one for you, there this awesome looking girl who lives next door to me , and i got to speak to her last night by , informing her her car lights were on, and after she said thanx she said hold on, im coming, but i like walked away, so im thinking i blew my oppertunity, so tell me how do i get the chance again, and dont sa wait till she leaves her light on again, lol. thanx
Posted by switchbitch
Try leaving your lights on! Or sit by your window all day and wait until she leaves, then go after her. Or run out of sugar and go borrow a cup. This is a particularly good method, cos it makes it completely obvious you like her without actually saying it. It has the same effect as "would you like to come in for a coffee?"
Posted by swazi
ahh, i see , but the problem is she is arab, and im british and they get guys hitting on them all the time, and asking for sugar here just aint something you do, might try the leave my ligths on trick, but i think she would think i was trying something on.
thanx, your like apro at this, so how did you decide you wanted to start you advice service
Posted by Jim
@switchbitch: the first two you can't answer them ( normally
) but nice for the 30$ story
Posted by gelfen
@switch: using an alternative spelling is not the same as finding another word.
Synonyms for "synonym": analogue, annotation, answer, characterization, clarification, clue, comment, commentary, cue, delimitation, delineation, demarcation, denotation, determination, diagnosis, drift, elucidation, exemplification, explanation, explication, exposition, expounding, fixing, formalization, gloss, individuation, interpretation, key, outlining, rationale, rendering, rendition, representation, settling, signification, solution, synonym, terminology, translation
and if you undo your bellybutton your backside will fall off as long as you undo it all the way through (this usually requires the aid of a sword or other long bladed object).
Posted by switchbitch
Well if you examine the question, it follows that my answer holds. Synonyme and synonym are different words. The words you provided above are not really good examples of synonyms for "synonym".
Posted by rrojas260
ok it's my turn now. Sorry for my bad english
When I put myself my glasses I can see perfectly and when another people put them they see all blurred. So
Why when I put the glasses in a camera the obtained image is not altered?
The glasses wouldn't have to alter the forms in which the light arrives at the lens?
Sorry again for my bad english.
Posted by gelfen
i disagree. it's like saying another word for colour is color, or another word for characterization is characterisation.
the suitability of the results i provided above (taken from thesaurus.com), varies depending on context - although most are fairly lame i personally think "analogue" isn't too bad, or possibly "equivalent" which isn't on the list.
btw - in the chain game thread you claimed that "corequisite" was not a word. unfortunately it is (i took several of them at university!)
Posted by switchbitch
Ok gelfen, so i cheat a little bit, fair dinkum mate! Also, im not sure if corequisite is in the oxford dictionary but thanks for keeping me right.
Glasses..... Either converge or diverge light rays passing through the lens, thereby altering the focal point. If a normal sighted person wears glasses, images fall out of focus because the focal point is now either ahead or behind the retina, instead of focusing on the retina, which is what we want for an image to appear sharp and in focus. However, if we strain hard enough, we can compensate for this distortion. A camera will experience a distorted image also, assuming it doesnt have an auto focusing function. Our eyes are far more sensitive to tiny alterations in focal point; its what gives us such precise depth perception. A camera does experience the distortion, but when the image is reproduced it may not appear obvious.

Why am i drunk in the weekend?
Posted by switchbitch
Because youre human, and the success of our evolution is due to a very strong instinct to socialise. If nobody else went out and got drunk at the weekend, you may not either. Gathering and socialising is an important factor in asserting social hierarchy and improving our chances of finding a mate and reproducing. Alcohol becomes involved, because it suppresses our inhibition, and in an age of heightened peer pressure and social stigma, suppressed inhibition plays a key role in our capacity to interact.

my turn:
what is the meaning of life, oh great one?
Posted by switchbitch
There is no meaning, at least not in the sense of mathematical logic and the spacial and temporal dimensionality which we are familiar with. The meaning of life is an argument which simply cannot exist within the confines of our existance; that is, it is impossible to consider without another, common frame of reference. It would be rather like trying to explain a 3rd dimension to a creature which lived within the confines of only 2 dimensions, if that were possible, which of course it is not.
Posted by gelfen
i personally disagree with that, but i'm not gonna argue since i think the meaning of life is what you make of it (or possibly 42, or even to make plastic). there is an ongoing discussion in this thread if you're interested.
@switch: if you truely believe the meaning of life is unattainable then i think i feel a little sorry for you.
Posted by switchbitch
No the point im making is that we can never understand the meaning of or reasons for life and existance. The truly sad thing is that some people dont even think about it, and just plod along with a selfish ignorant attitude.

too true, too true.
...the point im making is that we can never understand the meaning of or reasons for life and existance
i don't believe this is true, but i think the human species is too immature to achieve the required level of understanding (perhaps in another 2000 years or so.....with a lot of luck).
