Open Question: Say something NEGATIVE about your FAVORITE wrestlers?

Ok Everybody, I want to hear at least one thing for all of you're favorite wrestlers. here's mine: Randy Orton wears way too much oil and I miss the legendkiller gimmick shawn needs to get hair plugs and get his eye operation already and get back in the gym instead of going to church and he also needs to start dancing and saying suck it again and stop being PG Nature boy needs to calm down, not that i don't like it, i'm just worried about him Kevin, Bishoff and Hogan are pissing me off by not joining The Band brian kenrick is stupid for wasting an opportunity in the WWE Aj Styles is stupid for not excepting a WWE offer even thought I like TNA and I respect him for standing by them HBK and taker aged really fast in the last couple years Shelton Benjamin doesn't seem to be improving on the mic or even attempting to have a gimmick what so ever Mr. Anderson is a bit clumsy at times Triple H stood up us Moncton fans by advertising to come to a show the same day as a st. John show and after seeing how little fans were at the St. John show decided not to come to Moncton a couple hours later I'm not very sure if RVD can still deliver, I mean i enjoy a joint now and then to but if that's all you do all day and don't take your wrestling job serious instead of training, ...i dunno, plus he's gettin up there. Billy Gunn, Goldust and Stevie Richards should have been way more succesful then they ever were, definitely more then Cena, that bum. Chris Masters shouldn't have changed his entrance or his masterlock challenge gimmick Chris Jericho needs a better finisher then the code breaker, and needs to make people tap with the walls of jericho more. Rey mysterio can't wrestle anymore because he's too old MVP is a joke as a face It's totally job like seeing Y2J let Edge make him look SO weak It pisses me off how Shawn puts everyone over, but he puts over anyone they tell him to, guys that don't deserve it like Cena, and he makes himself look so weak lately. Like when he's in a 6 man tag and doesn't do anything! except get beat on and beat on, and then finally beat on very badly and crawl to HHH for the tag to save him to come in and look so powerful and beat the crap out of everyone in the ring! The old Shawn would never do this, and I think its time to hang up the boots because he lost it. This is coming from his biggest fan ever! Kurt Angle's work ethic: he needs (more) time off. Eric Bishoff is so smart it pisses me off, he could make something succeed even more then I could. Kane is a jobber now In Randy Orton's early matches he did too many sleepers an headlocks where the hell is the juice? Eric needs to bring back WCW more

Open Question: Is A Marketing (Major) & Psychology(Minor) A good combo for a career in advertising?

Open Question: TNATION are you having doubts about the new monday night war?

i was shocked to find out that TNA only did a 1.0 against RAW. It blows my mind away for sure. TNA without a doubt had the superior show in terms of excitement and wrestling. WWE was same old same old.. dont get me wrong, i think we all knew that WWE was going to win in the ratings, that's a given. WWE is the popular brand b/c it is more known. TNA is just really getting out there, despite the fact that they have been around for 7 years. @ sharkboy TNATION SOLDIER: yea man, apparantly, in today's world, for some god forsaken reason, fans must prefer a purley entertainment show with minimal wrestling that is redundant (that means repeating, over and over. same stuff everyweek basically is what i'm saying, for those who dont know) (and i use that term loosely) instead of good solid pro wrestling mixed with entertainment. part of me feels that this move to monday nights was a HUGE mistake and happened way to soon. the other part of me is saying that it was only day one, in time, TNA will rise in ratings and not to give up hope on that. hell, WCW started out small and it rose to crazy heights. in general TNATION. i dont know what to think honestly. the expression "rome wasnt built in a day" comes to mind, but at the same time....you cant help but wonder....despite being the pg era, to deny steve austin still holds star power would be foolish....if TNA did a 1.0 this week, how bad would it be next week???? only thing i can say is dark times in pro wrestling......i miss the 90's so much its rediculous.... and for the record::: i know WWE marks will tell me i am "whining" i'm NOT "whining", i'm stating the obvious....i've seen quite a few of you admit that TNA put on a better show, but WWE got the ratings.. TNA needs to do some serious advertising...bottomline..they dont air enough commericials and just dont advertise like they should... if i see 4 TNA commercials per week, that is more then usual, its crazy. more

Open Question: Are there any legitimate free security software sites or are they all bait & switch?

So far all the websites advertising free software downloads for pc's have been misleading and attempt to sell a product. I'm beginning to feel guilty about attempting to steal or grab a freebee. Can someone advise me about this? Hell, if everyone else is paying, I will too, but I keep hearing about good free software. I presently have a subscription with Norton Symantec, but my pc is gettin slower and crashes too much. Thanks to all who attempt to help. more

Open Question: If you have a good advertising commercial idea, what can you do to pitch it?

Open Question: My band is trying to sell an EP?

So I'm in a band. The three of us have been working really hard and are finally in the last steps of putting out an EP. It's all totally self-released, because even though we're on a "label," it doesn't really do anything. All of us are in high school - two different ones. To make back the money we're using to actually make the EPs [and in order to make more], we're planning to sell them for a dollar. We figure that's a good price and we're not really planning to make a profit, just enough money to make more CDs and to be able to give them to labels and things for free. My QUESTION is... Obviously the most sensible place I can think of to try to sell these EPs is my school, but am I allowed to do that? Should I talk to administration about it? Since it consists of material we made ourselves, can we just sell it? Or how about like, the local mall? Would it be illegal to go up to people and ask if they wanted to buy it? Basically I just want to know the rules surrounding this. [PS; my band is called Bright Red Reason. Our myspace is http://www.Myspace.com/brightRedReason , so you could check us out too if you have time :D. Haha ok. Shameless advertising over.] Thank you for any help you can provide! Really :) more

I'm looking for a foundation which leaves an absolutely flawless finish.

Resolved Question: Why do conservatives always argue that living somewhere else would be worse?

Almost every time I've gotten into a debate with someone who calls themselves conservative, and I say things like...I can't pay my bills even though my husband and I work three thousand hours a week. Or, I have health care but they don't pay because of pre-existing condition, or I can't run for office because I don't have millions of dollars to advertise myself...Conservatives always say...well move to Iraq where I'll have to wear a scarf over my head. Or they say, why don't I move period. Why don't they realize that just because another country might be worse it doesn't make this one good or ethical. And why do they assume that because I have problems with this country that I would move. As an American citizen I chose to stay here in order to try to unbrainwash the masses. Also, I don't run from my problems. Makes me think that republicans are cowards always offering that I just move. Is that what they would do? Just run when you don't like something. Or just run to another country and blow it up? Or run away and only listen to people that believe what they do.Hm, so far I haven't gotten any answers, only insults. Let's try for some answers without insults. I know it's hard for you guys but I know you can think for yourselves, c'mon. more

i want a stable career and want to live a comfortable life, help my family financially, maybe own a business some day... engineering seems to be a good choice for that ...i do have some interest in computer engineering or electrical engineering (mostly curiosity about how things work ) so i thought one of those too would be best for me BUT heres the thing ...on top of being just okay in math, i also have an interest in drawing and art ( i draw anything thats in a photograph) my family thinks i have talent and it would be a shame to let that go. id like to get better at it but i dont want to end up a starving artist, i thought about graphic design and advertising but theres just sooooo much competition. now just because i can draw doesnt mean ill do good in graphic design, in fact ive done some research and graphic design has very little to do with actual drawing (it has to do more with the creativity that the artist supposedly has) ...and the way things are going graphic designers are prbly going to end up being the new starving artist from what ive been told (feel free to correct me if im wrong) i dont want to give up my drawing abilities, but i want to earn a good living my plan is to major in comp eng. or elec. eng. then open an internet cafe and take care of all the repairs myself and as well as offer my professional services ... then i planned to take a course in web design to make some extra money on the side and once my business is stable enough to hire someone to manage it for me id try to work from home and take up drawing, painting, art as a hobby .....what do you think about it? does this seem realistic? will i still be able to enjoy drawing and art? i dont mind the hard work i have to put into majoring in engineering ...all good things in life require hard work and dedication... i just dont want to waste the skill i have for drawing ....so yeah please let me know what you think about my situation, any advice that you can offer, any corrections you may want to point out, any info you can give me would be greatly appreciated ...thankyou for your time more

Open Question: Are there better places for a home buyer to find a Melbourne apartement other than?

..Domain.com.au and realestate.com.au I find it rare to find south facing CBD apartment. There's lots of west facing apartment ads that say "ooh ooh buyer, look at the view of the Docklands", but I'm not stupid. Having the sun in my eyes in the afternoon doesn't sound worth it. I'm under the impression that the best real estate doesn't even make it to the main stream newspapers or web sites. That the best ones are swooped off the plan or agents don't need to advertise because they already have a buyer waiting. Would that be correct? I feel like I've been browsing at left over property that no one wants. more

Hello, I'm doing a project for High School French II, and I want to know if I'm using the correct phrases so far.

Resolved Question: Do I have to be extremely good at math to be an accountant?

I'm in college majoring in liberal studies. I live in California and teachers are being laid off like hot cakes, so I was thinking in double majoring in business (advertising) and minoring in accounting.

Open Question: Aren’t you glad you’re not a famous rich actor/actress, going to the Oscars, because you’ve been nominated?

Especially women…they have to wear very tight and uncomfortable designer dresses in which they can barely walk, breathe or sit down. Add the high heels to that. I’d like to see how they handle peeing in public toilets in those. They usually don’t even own the dress, it was lent to them because they’re walking advertising but they have to name the designer in any interview. Any journalist on the red carpet will ask “what are you wearing?” It’s not like anybody care but it’s a requirement. The famous actress gets to wear the dress that she does not have to buy…but she has to say the designer’s name. The journalist will have to ask the question about the designer, so the actress can say the name of the designer, otherwise she would not answer any questions from the journalist and just waive and move on. You scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours. Then they have to wear those heavy, “this is the price of a house” cold stones around their neck and pulling down on their ear lobes. They don’t even own those jewels; it was lent to them because they’re walking advertising (then the jeweler has to go to court when celebrities’ personal assistant “forget” to return the borrowed jewels, ha-ha). They have to do all that while smiling a fake smile with fake white teeth, and looking a little too happy while wondering why oh why do I subject myself to this? Having money but wearing things I don’t even own…then, they remember…they got into this business for fame, fortune and adulation…none of those are easy. Then everybody will notice that they either lost too much weight or gained too much weight. Then whatever they look like, some people will criticize their fashion sense, in magazines, trash papers, online… Men will be judged by their arm candies. If she’s an unknown, sexy and half his age…then he’s a loser and she’s a gold digger. If she’s not sexy, even nice and classy, and she’s as old as him, because she’s his soul mate, then people will think “gosh, he could do better than that!” more

Open Question: what do you think about this tattoo?

basically im looking to get a tattoo and i want something with symbolic meaning and something that might make more sense to me than others but i dont want people to take the wrong impression. my idea has been done before. i want a red star with a fist in the middle.. the red star would symbolize my interest in the socialist party. im all for the working class, and my political views lean to the left.. although im nothing close to radical. im completely against big business, and corporations and i absolutely despise their methods of advertising and how they brainwash people just to sell a higher quantity of their product.... and blah blah.. the fist would signify a firm standing in what i believe.. its pride in being who i am, and with my rebellious nature i tend to stand up against any type of oppression. now if this is what i want why the hell should i care what people think? see thats where the problems come because this tattoo can be very controversial.. for starters: Im a future soldier in the US army.. what would they think of this? keep in mind what the red star and the fist can also mean : red star being the symbol of the soviet union; raised fist could be a sign of the black panthers( obv. not that) or the aryan race.... i dont want anyone to perceive this wrong.. id rather not even have to explain it but i dont want people to think im pro communism or im a white supremacist... what do you guys think? be honest and if you have better suggestions be creative. thanksAlso for anyone out there that shares this interest with me... im a huge rage against the machine fan.. while their political views seem radical at times, they inspire me greatly as musicians and one of their signs they liked to use was the red star more

Open Question: Poll: Do you think Pixar will ever make a bad movie?

Or a financial flop? Most of Pixar's fim have been amazing. Cars is their worst movie, yet it's still better than half of Dreamworks films. What do you think? Th new trailer was pretty bad for Toy Story 3, hopefully it's better than what it advertised the movie to be. Pixars trailers are never known to be good anyway, so there's still hope. more

Resolved Question: Is the Swivel Sweeper G2 a Good sweeper and worth the money?

Has anyone tried the Swivel Sweeper G2 that is advertised on the InfoMercials on TV. I need to clean up dog hair off the carpets and have tile and carpeted floors. Would like to clean the concrete drive as well. It looks kinda whimpy but I'm not hard on appliances any more as I'm now old enough to know how far to push stuff and when something is too much. They are offering two sweepers for the cost of one but is the shipping and handling outrageous or reasonable? I'm asking this here now b/c if I get on the phone the sales person should convince me to buy it but I would like to hear REAL stories of how this appliance has worked for other Yahoo members. Will this thin fall apart in a month? Will the brushes get filled with dog hair and stop working or is it easily cleanable in the brush area? Does it really run for 45 minutes on a charge and how long does it take to charge it back up? I realize that I will be dumping the tray in the trash quite a bit, but my house is a mess b/c my vacuum is too large and wont get into the small areas under the sink in the kitchen and along the cupboards and floor edges, and this sweeper looks great. But then the ad is SUPPOSED to make it look great. IS IT AS GREAT AS IT SOUNDS? I have a VERY limited budget and if there is something better for the price I need to know that before I blow $40 on this and probably another $20 in shipping + tax (California). Help Mr./Ms.Yahoo Wizards. more

Open Question: Please help me with this?

Hey all, Although it is only natural for you to be sceptical, I really hope you will hear me out. There is one genuine organisation (officially listed as a public limited company) which offers rewards based on the advertising efforts of the general public. It offers rewards such as iPod Touches, iPod Nanos, MacBooks, iTunes Vouchers, PCs, Xbox 360s, PS3s etc. To obtain the rewards, you must sign up other people you know to the site and have them complete an offer (some of which are free, such as LoveFilm). The gift that you receive is based on the number of referrals (people who have completed an offer through your link) you have managed to make. For instance: iPod Nano 8GB: 5x Referrals iPod Touch 8GB: 8x Referrals £50 iTunes Voucher: 3x Referrals iMac 3.06Ghz PC: 43x Referrals There are no cash prizes, although it is possible to choose £100 pound Amazon vouchers and you can always sell on the products once you receive them for cash. I have written this so that you, the reader, will sign up to the website through my link. My girlfriend and I are working away to get referrals through ebay, word of mouth and other sites. As you can imagine, many people hear about the company/website and this is why it is a good business model... The company gets other people to do its marketing and the people who you sign up to complete an offer may like the service(s) offered and continue using them (eg. LoveFilm). This is all that I have to say so if you are interested in the reward scheme and know that everything I have said is honest and true, please BuyItNow and I will send you my link to the website in question, alongside 2x links (including a news broadcast) which will show you that this site is legitimate and it will help motivate you to get the referrals you need to get the gadgets or amazon vouchers that you want. Okay, here is the link: http://apple.freebiejeebies.co.uk/224798 Here are a couple of links offering proof of the company's existence and legitimacy: 1. http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=L6ojaasY1hI&feature=related 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1hw0jrcDOE Thank You :)It's long because that's what it takes to explain and show people that its legit. Most people don't listen, but that's okay, its your loss. You could be getting an iPhone or 360 for free if you would only just listen more

Open Question: Do you consider it deceptive to advertise products eg volumising shampoo using models wearing hair extension?

And adverts for mascara using models with lash inserts or enhanced in post production? I know some companies do disclose this on very small print on the ads but surely if the product was any good in the first place they wouldn't need to use enhancements? It makes me feel distrustful and hoodwinked. How do you feel about it? more

Resolved Question: Your thoughts on Prostitution?

argue against these points that claim prostitution should be legalized and regulated. plerz. 1. escort services are legal in canada as long as they are not advertised in public areas. -less men in canada hire prostitutes than in the us (studies have been conducted) percentage wise. 2. street walkers and escorts are assaulted, raped and killed on a regular basis. they could be in a safe environment if prostitution were legal. 3. it would take money out of the hands of organized crime, which would reduce drug flow. 4. it would be better for the economy if prostitution could be taxed. 5. prostitutes dont deserve jail time because of their profession. 6. many law makers and businessmen are known to enjoy escorts 7. why tell someone what they cant do with her body if they aren't harming anyone? more
