  • What R&B Song Is This?

    Alright, so I hardly ever listen to rap/hip hop type of music, but there is a song I have stuck in my mind and I cannot figure out what it is. It's a relatively popular song that I think was new around 2011 or 2012. It sounds like Usher or someone similar and I'm horrible at lyrics but the main chorus is something like "she's got a"........"before I let her go(know"...... then before the chorus it's something like "walk like she walk, talk like she talk" or something to that effect. Does anyone know the song I'm referring to?

  • How To Stop White Scuffs From Manicure (Men)?

    So I've recently decided to start taking better care of myself and that includes weekly manicures. I've been learning myself over the past 3 months and my nails are looking pretty good except these white scuffs on my nails. My cuticles get very dry and I think it is a results of trimming them when they get long. It's definitely not because a lack of calcium. I've picked up some cuticle oil and that seems to somewhat help. Is there a better way of going about this?

  • Why do I look so bad (dark circles, acne) in the mirror at Great Clips?

    I really don't think I'm that bad of a looking guy, but I look like a ghoul whenever I get my hair cut at great clips. The dark circles under my eyes are magnified by 100, i have slight facial flushing (very moderate rosacea) and a few pimples, but it looks like my cheeks are bright red and the one or two pimples that I have go from small blemishes to craters. It's humiliating! I'm a 27 year old guy and I generally don't get down on my looks but my god I wanna cry when I look in the mirror at that place. It's gotten so bad that it puts me in a mild depression for a day or two after. I usually am a very confident person, but I will have zero confidence for a few days after my haircut which makes matters even worse. When I look at any other mirror I'm generally okay with myself and even think I look really good a lot of the time. I know it's the lighting but I'd like to know which is the way that I truly look like in public. If I really look like the way I do in great clips I may resort to wearing a burka!

  • Is it okay for guys to wear concealed to cover up dark circles?

    Im 26 and have fought with these dark circles for years! I even recently tried juvederm and it seemed to make matters worse if anything. I'm totally straight but I'm just sick of dealing with this every day. Is it okay for guys to wear it? Also, can anyone recommend any brands or how to apply it without it being to noticeable?

  • Will I Be Single Forever?

    I don't know what my problem is. I think I have characteristics that women like. I think my looks are above average and I am very fashionable. I'm 6'5 and have a six pack (blonde hair, blue eyes). My face is not breathtaking but I would honestly say it's a solid 7 (assuming I'm biased imagine a 5). Maybe my behavior is a little odd, I have a very high iq and I find it difficult to participate in mindless banter. I'm very career focused and I would think that's an attractive quality, but perhaps not. I have a pretty good job right now and it's fairly apparent that I have a very financially secure future ahead of me. I don't want to sound arrogant but I constantly see guys that I deem are not the same caliber as me, but they're with very attractive girls. I mean the types of guys who are living with their mothers, 30 pounds overweight, haven't shaved in 4 days and will be working in a cubicle their whole lives lol. When I was younger I always just thought my failures were a result of me not being "dangerous" enough for girls and that they would wise up once I got older. But now I'm 26 and I'm not sure if it ever changes. I absolutely refuse to turn in my thomas pink shirts for ed hardy or affliction trash lol! Seriously though, I just don't get it and it angers me more than it saddens me because I just can't figure it out!!!

  • What Do British Girls Think of American Men?

    I have a job offer in London, but I'm a little nervous because I've never even been out of the US (I know very typical). I was just wondering what British girls thought of american men. I honestly have felt out of place my whole life and I'm looking forward to coming to the country my great great grandparents foolishly left over a century ago! So, am I going to be totally out of luck being an american? Will British fathers disapprove of a yankee such as myself lol?

  • Is this Fannie Mae and Freddie Macs business model?

    I'm trying to understand what they do. This is how I understand it, please correct me if I'm wrong or tell me if I'm right.

    A homebuyer recieves a loan from a private bank for 100 K at 6.5 % interest. The bank then sells the mortgage to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac keeping a small percentage of the interest, say 2%. Then Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac takes over the mortgage and keeps the remaining 4.5 %. Let's say they borrowed their money from foreign Govt.'s at 4.0%, then they have an arbitrage deal where they keep the remaining .5% as profit.

    Is this a good example of how they work? Obviously they assume more risked but they do so because they are backed by the govt. Do banks essentially act as middlemen in this situation? If my example is wrong would someone please right out a better one? Thanks

  • When you buy a commoditie?

    What are you actually buying? When you buy a share of company XYZ you are buying into the performance of XYZ. But what are your buying into when you buy something like pork bellies? Who are you paying, who are you going against? Is it essentially just gambling? Any explaination would be very helpful!

  • How to use Standard Deviation and Beta to determine a stocks volatility?

    I understand how to get the standard deviation for a stock by going through the variance. What I'm curious about is how to convert the stocks standard deviation into the stocks beta value. Also what is considered a low volatile stock as far as standard deviation goes? I know with the beta anything higher than 1.0 is considered highly volatile. Any information on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
