Hang Out and Post

And the population size would really decrease :yes:

It would not be so good a thing, but there are men who will date taller women and women who will date shorter men, so I don't suppose it's partly just shallowness?

[IrishLiz]

At least it gets averaged out. Imagine if men would only date women shorter then them, and women would only date men shorter than themselves. That would be horrible.

 

This made me chuckle... for some reason it brought funny images to my head, like a 6 foot tall man with a 4 foot tall woman and vice versa.

You're welcome for the laughter. :)

I take pride in making my comments 110% funny.

[:)Doc]

It's amazing how at my school if you are tall, you are a freak and no one likes you :P Except for my little group of female friends of course b) Heh.

[antiaircraft]

Heh, I kinda know that feeling, although under different circumstances. In high school I wasn't initially much liked by most of my class, except for a few girls who thought that the little kid was cute. xD

[Luciana]

Hey guys, guess what?

I changed my name back.

also

This morning I woke up to the sound of my carbon monoxide alarm. boo ):

[CAV of Gang Green]

I hate the Carbon Monoxide alarm. It rang off once when there was nothing. Me and my brother tried to ignore it. Then it went off in one loud beeping noise that wouldn't stop. I had to rip the batteries out so it can shut up.

[Divya Bean]

A little self-centered, are we? :P

 

:P

Aw! There are a few guys like that at my school, and they take advantage of the fact that some girls think they are cute by asking them out. :rolleyes_anim:

[Luciana]

It's really annoying. I never heard the sound before, so it kind of freaked me out. Especially because it was pretty early in the morning.

Stupid toxic gases.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Don't you mean imaginary toxic gases?

 

If there really was carbon monoxide, you wouldn't be typing right now.

[Theresa2]

I hate the Carbon Monoxide alarm too its so loud and I hope you dont have it in your house

[Luciana]

I aired out the house for a few hours and walked around outside for a little bit.

I don't know whether or not there was carbon monoxide.

But I'm sure it's gone by now- if it was ever here in the first place.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Well, if we are talking about it, then that means we both have the alarm.

 

You have to have a carbon monoxide alarm. If you don't, you are risking your life. Carbon monoxide is odorless and can kill.

[Luciana]

I think Theresa means she hopes we didn't have carbon monoxide in our houses! That would make more sense, at least.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Oh. It sounds like she's saying that she hopes there aren't any alarms in our houses. :P

[The Score in Blue]

Is it compulsory to have these carbon monoxide alarms in the US?

I'm pretty sure we don't have them over here.

[Seliphra]

Not compulsory in Canada either, but my house has them because we had a CM leak.

[Luciana]

Carbon monoxide alarms became mandatory not too long ago in the US, I think.

Even if it wasn't mandatory I think people should have one. Just to be safe.

[antiaircraft]

No such alarms in Malaysia... heck, we don't even have many fire alarms here. Which is kinda odd, because I'm living in a house which has had an electrical fire before.

[-Ryan]

I wasn't aware those existed until a few minutes ago... xD

[antiaircraft]

Someone should invent an integrated safety hazard monitoring system. :yes: Something standardised and reliable so we don't have to run around getting all the different alarms.

Exactly. Mandatory or not, you should have a carbon monoxide alarm, and a fire alarm. You wouldn't want to die in your sleep now do you? :P

Actually, I'm pretty sure they have those. But they're usually more of a hassle because they cover a lot of things, which includes burglar alarms, which means you have to constantly turn it on and off (probably punching in a passcode) just to get in and out of the house. Plus installation might give people some trouble, and it costs quite a bit too.

 

I'm not quite sure if we have a carbon monoxide alarm. It's never gone off before, that's for sure :P

[antiaircraft]

Well, I was thinking something more along the lines of a more simple, rugged fire/gas/temperature/etc. alarm which you could stick in buildings of all sorts. :yes: Leave the security system elsewhere.

[The Score in Blue]

Yeah, but they don't even sell carbon monoxide alarms over here. We only have smoke alarms.
