• Commented on "Anybody else have to go to the bathroom?"
  I strongly agree with your opening statement. Conformity tends to be very prevalent among close friend groups, whether it's dressing the same way or getting the same kind of phone. I think its crazy how much people are affected by...

  I am the third born child in my family and I as well would consider myself as the risk taker/adventurous one in the family. My best friend since first grade also happens to be the third born child. These could...
• Commented on Charlie Bit my Finger- What makes an Online Video go viral?
  I never really thought about why some videos have gotten so popular, but that seems to make sense. Sport videos containing crazy tricks or brutal falls tend to get millions of views because they make you feel like jumping out...
• Commented on Who said I'm not intelligent?
  I agree with your belief that every individual has some sort of intelligence. Some are good test takers, while others are good at writing papers, doing projects, etc. I don't consider myself a good test taker either, which I think...

  I agree that increasing emotional intelligence would be beneficial in the work place. I think emotional intelligence would also be useful within families to be able to understand each other's feelings. It would build stronger relationships between family members so...
• Commented on People detecting lies
  I think it is much more difficult to tell if a witness is lying or not during a court case setting then just talking to them normally. Gestures and facial expressions could easily convince a person into thinking a witness...
• Commented on Relationships, have you looked deeper into them??
  I agree with what you said about proximity and how it helps build friendships/relationships. Currently, my best friends are the people who I met back in middle school. They all live within a few blocks away from my house, so...

  In agreement with ladex007, I think there are many foods and drinks that can affect the body similarly to drugs. I have a few friends who drink coffee every morning because they say they can't get through the day without...
• Commented on Who has the best parents!
  This is very interesting! I knew some parents were more strict than others, but I didn't know there were four specific styles of parenting. My parents are both authoritative and they set strict boundaries, but they will cut me some...

• Commented on To steal or not to steal
  This would be a very difficult situation and it is tough to claim whether it was acceptable or not unless we were put in a similar position. Though stealing may be an initial response if money was not present, I...
• Commented on Functional Fixedness and Scrabble (and other similar 3rd party games)
  I truly enjoyed reading your blog post. I didn't realize it much until now, but I run into the same problem almost every time I play Words With Friends. Especially when my opponent has more points then me, I find...
• Commented on Clean the dirty pot
  I found the picture to be quite amusing. It's funny how easy it is to oversee such simple solutions that happen to be right in front of us. Sometimes were just so used to doing something one way, and completely...

  I think the way dolphins and other animals communicate can be considered a language. They use noises and actions just like how we use words and gestures. As you mentioned, dolphin language can be thought of as a different language....
• Commented on Did you have to learn who you are?
  My earliest memory is when I was about 2 years of age. I remember using a onion slicer when my mom told me not to because she thought I would get hurt. I ended up cutting my finger and I...

  I myself can speak English and Japanese fluently, and I can speak Spanish pretty well. I'm able to maintain my understanding of Japanese, since I speak it regularly at my house. Spanish on the other hand, I have not used...
• Commented on Do they really work?
  This is a very relatable topic because these medications are so commonly used among college students. Many of my friends began taking Adderall and Ritalin during high school to help them concentrate on their studies. I have taken Adderall several...
• Commented on Bilingualism- Advantageous or no?
  Being bilingual is very advantageous in my opinion. My family is Japanese and I was raised in the U.S., so I learned English and Japanese both at an early age. I also took Spanish from 2nd grade till my...

• Commented on Bigfoot, UFOS, Ghosts, and God?

  You bring up a very good point. Indeed, football injuries have been a big turning point in many people's lives. One of my good friends from high school has been playing football and hockey since he was really young. By...
