Is it appropriate to wear a just-slightly-below-knee-length pencil skirt without tights/hose in a casual office setting?

Today's video! Enjoy!

What's your favorite teen movie?

Mine's Heathers. Or possibly The Breakfast Club.

So we bump into each other IRL.
Whats the first thing you say to me?

Let me preface this by saying I am NOT a coffee drinker!

I volunteer at a homeless shelter where I occasionally do an overnight shift... basically just making sure everybody gets breakfast and is out the door at a certain time.

Normally, the coffee pot is empty when I get there at night so I just have to start it in the morning. I barely know how to do that, but I've figured it out. Last night, though, there was half a pot left. I ended up dumping it and starting totally fresh because I couldn't find an answer in a quick google search... but would it have been alright to just add new grounds and water, and dripped more coffee into the already-existing pot?

How do you take your coffee?

What's your order at Starbucks/Caribou/Saxby's/whatever your other overpriced espresso shop of choice may be?

Do you have a co-worker where you find it impossible to get along with them, regardless of whether they have ever done anything 'wrong' to you? Why?

How do you/would you deal with having to work with them? Srs & non-srs answers welcome.

So in the last week I've noticed that the skin on my eyelids and general eye area has gotten swollen and really sensitive. I have wrinkles around my eyes. It's like my eyes have aged thirty years, and left the rest of me behind.
I've been getting a lot of sleep, eating regularly, no major changes in face wash/eye makeup/medicine, so I don't think it's an allergic reaction. I'm thinking it's just from the cold of winter. 
So does anyone else have this happen? know any cures? have any idea what it could be?

Thanks in advance! :)

Do you know where this is from?



Edit: What movie/advertisement/music video?

Considering the situation, I thought it best to bring this to people I don't know personally.

Because of a conflict between a friend and I, I decided to "take a break" from friends in general for a while because I was scared of messing up so badly again. I barely talked to anyone for a year. (A mistake, I know.) And now, I'm slowly starting to talk to and spend time with them, but I sort of lost my ability to communicate with people. I'm still getting used to having having group conversations because it feels like there's no room for me anymore.

I want to become close friends with them again, but I don't know how to just "jump back in".

TQC, what do you suggest I do?

Do you remember The Great Mouse Detective?

What lesser-known Disney movies do you love?

Joaquin Pheonix...on drugs, or all an act?

What's your last purchase from a TV ad INFOMERCIAL? gmab.

On Wednesday I'm scheduled to have surgery to remove half the skin and part of the bone of one of my toes. It's a long fucking story. The actual procedure won't take more than like 20 minutes and I'll be out of the hospital by Wednesday afternoon, but I'm really scared and I don't know why. I'll be put under anesthesia and I think that's what scares me the most.

Why am I so scared of anesthesia? I had surgery twice when I was little and it came out fine, and both those procedures were much more involved than what I'm having done on Wednesday.

Will you reassure me that I'm just being a basket case for no reason? Perhaps share reassuring or humorous anecdotes? :/

ETA: Is it a seriously dick move of my friend to be annoyed that I won't come to a party Wednesday night, because of this surgery? She's getting all huffy with me and I'm like SORRY BUT I KIND OF DON'T WANT TO DRIVE HALF AN HOUR TO NOT GET DRUNK WITH EVERYONE JUST TO HOBBLE AROUND ON CRUTCHES AND THEN GO HOME AFTER BEING UNDER ANESTHESIA EARLIER IN THE DAY FOR A FEW HOURS YOU WHORE.

I'm feeling a little down. What's something fun or awesome I could do (on a public holiday, 5.30 pm, no car) that would make me feel less down or more accomplished for today?

what would you buy with a $50 gift card to american apparel?

What's annoying you right now?

What are some of your favorite quotations?

Will you please share the last thing that really shook your world? Something devastating that happened? Something shocking to your life?

 

what commercials annoy you/ you cannot stand to watch?

I cannot stand any of the jared's jeweler's commercials especially the
one where he is signing for the girl. It seems like he doesn't care enough
to learn sign language, but he cares enough to buy her some stupid jewelry.

and the other one was some commercial (I forgot the name of it) where the guy was talking
about all the stuff he could buy with the money they saved and then the woman says oh no
we can't sweetie and you see she already spent the money on a new coat or something. He 
just smiles at her but I would have slapped the bitch.

is "tu me mens" the correct way to say "you lie to me" in french?

my favorite words are ocean and laissez-faire. what are yours?

what accent do you consider to be the most attractive?

what author's writing just pisses you off? (besides stephanie meyer)

For those of you who know languages other than your native one, are there any dialects or accents that you have a hard time understanding, or cannot understand at all?

For example, my sister knows French, and can understand anyone from Francophone countries. Haiti, Morocco, parts of West African such as Mali, and can understand them fine. In many cases French is the person's first language. However, with actual French people, it all goes over her head.

My Spanish is okay and I can generally understand most Latin America dialects and accents (although Argentines are more difficult especially because of the use of vos) but if I'm talking to an actual Spaniard...I can't understand at all.

Also when I was in Costa Rica I knew a lot of locals who knew English and I could talk to perfectly fine, but then if a British or Australian person in my group tried to speak to them...nothing. I would have to "translate," basically saying the exact same thing back but in my American accent.

Anyone in here have any similar experiences?

EDIT: I know this is normal, I'm just looking for what others have experienced in this regard.

Do you have trouble with obsession?
How do I get over one?

Do you know that there were movies made in the 1920's that were in color and/or had scenes filmed in color?
Have you ever watched one of them?
Do you think it seems weird for a silent film to be in color? ETA: The reason I asked this question is because just now I was thinking about the first time I watched the 1925 version of Ben-Hur and how thrown off I was when I saw the colored scenes in that movie. I don't think it's weird anymore though, I actually think it's pretty awesome that they had that technology back then.

What makes a stupid person?
