6 months ago - 10 answers
Emotion and facial expressionsWhen someone is lying, they will do one of three things. A) Show emotion when they have none, B) show no emotion (think of a poker face), or C) mask one emotion with another. Keep a close eye on the person you are speaking to, not just there eyes but also their entire face. Expressions are universal; whether you are a politician or a model your emotionsshow up on you face.Eyes and upper half vs. Lower halfThe upper half of a persons face is a much more reliable measure than the lower half.

I met 'Aunt Marie' as she had me call her when I worked in a donut shop in Anniston in the summer between high school and college. She came in every afternoon with a small styrofoam cooler, which I filled with crushed ice for her, for $.75. She told me her husband was sick and he liked to munch on the ice.

What Are The Worlds Weirdest Hangover Cures?
asked by Pished 6 months ago - 10 answers
A hangover is the price you pay in pain and suffering for the fun you had the night before. The Danish call it “Hammering Carpenters”, the Germans call it “Wailing Cats” and the French call it “Wooden Mouth” but it all means the same thing, you feel like something the cat puked up on the carpet after dining on alley scraps all night.Next time you experience that terrible “morning after” feeling, with the queasy stomach, pounding head and a mouth full of horrifying flavours, you can always try one of these remedies.

If you are unlucky enough to find yourself at ground zero on Z-Day, the following survival tips may increase your chances of staying alive (well at least until the sequel anyway).
Always Aim For The HeadA sure fire way to put down a Zombie permanently is to destroy the brain, when choosing a weapon fight the urge to get a gun only designed to impress your friends or one that's too heavy – remember you will need to carry it around with you. P.S. Hold back one bullet for yourself.
Stay Away From WindowsSo you have found some shelter and your fellow survivors are discussing what to do next. Don't get to close to the idiot standing with his back to the unsecured window.
