| Anyone have a track that they really dislike? That song "Let me take a selfie" is so annoying, and so irritating. It feels like someone is scraping their nails down a blackboard when I hear it. I've never had a song make me feel so agitated, but this one is it. As a result I now hate the word "selfi... |

Upload the .zip file. I have a few systems I use for malware analysis. I can take a look at what it is if you'd like.
It's not difficult to get around anti virus software though, so don't be surprised if it's not being flagged. |

| I love anything to do with space. Absolutely fascinating. But, I am always cautious about experiments such as these. For one thing not enough is known about what exists in space i.e. dark matter, to create an accurate model of space or the big bang theory. Even standard physics breaks down in space ... |

| I know some people don't smoke, or have ethical/moral views about cannabis, but please keep this thread on topic. This is a question to those that DO smoke cannabis. I've had a love/hate relationship with cannabis all my life. When my mental issues were at their worst (anxiety and depression) cannab... |

| I understand what it is like to gloat inwardly. I tend to feel that way toward people whom I perceive to have wronged me, but I never actively take part in anyone's failure or lack of success. Taking part in such wrongdoing is NOT a symptom of autism/Asperger's. It is something more like personalit... |

| Yes. I was bullied. At school it was direct bullying, but I have experienced indirect bullying that's not so obvious. At school I struggled to communicate and often responded with a shy tone. Bullies are in most classes at school, and when they'd talk to me I'd clam up. When they said something hurt... |

| If you lack success in your own life, there is a certain pleasure in seeing others fail. It makes you feel better about yourself knowing that failure isn't confined to you and others like you. This can be rooted in insecurity, jealously, envy, etc. However, if you desire to cause others to fail so ... |
