Disney Riddles YAY!?

October 3, 2012 / / 5 Comments

Question by robert.sanchez34: Disney Riddles YAY!?
There was a man in the MGM Studios. He was handed a phone by a Disney employee without asking his name or knowing his identity. After talking on the phone for a little over 30 seconds, he knew he was going on a cruise for free. So, he waited outside a building for someone. What happened?

A convicted murderer was traveling in Epcot, killing one person in every world showcase pavilion. He first kills someone in the Canada pavilion. After that, he goes to the closest dock and travels across the world showcase lagoon to the China pavilion. There, he kills another person. By the time the murderer is done killing the 2nd victim, the dead person in the Canada pavilion is found and the cops and a detective are called. The murderer then goes to the closest dock and travels to the France pavilion to kill someone else. By the time he kills the next victim, the detective figures out where he is going to murder someone next. Where? What is the pattern?
Don’t worry, I will show every one the answers. DISNEY ROCKS!

Best answer:

Answer by Ace
Wow, really good riddles. I don’t know either of them.

EDIT:

After re-reading the riddles, I feel that the answers might be a bit obvious…

1. The man talked to someone on the phone who said he was going on a cruise for free and told him to wait outside.

2. The man was going to the closest dock next to him. He always goes to the closest dock next to him.

from Thailand to Australia by sea?

October 2, 2012 / / 0 Comments

Question by ⊥ Bag: from Thailand to Australia by sea?
has anybody ever done it before, actually i am going to Thailand in a couple of weeks and i was just thinking about taking a cruise and i want to stay on a boat as long as i can and the longest route i can afford is from thailand to Australia, my main concern is that i hold a China passport and i don’t have a VISA to go to Australia, but i don’t care if i can get off the ship, i just want to be floating on the sea for a couple days, so will they let me on their ship if don’t have a VISA to Australia, how exactly can i make this happen
Thank you !

Best answer:

Answer by Halo
No you will not be allowed to board any vessel without a valid visa. If you board a ship in Thailand you must show a return ticket from your destination (Australia). At the end of any cruise you must leave the ship for it to be cleaned etc, even people who have back to back cruises (getting back on the same ship) have to depart at each final port. You will be denied boarding in Thailand without the correct visa’s.

are americans stupid?

October 1, 2012 / / 10 Comments

Question by Lol: are americans stupid?
ok so i have never believed in stereotypes i usually hate them, and i didn’t believe in the “dumb blonds” or “stupid americans” one, but i went on a cruise this summer and i met a lot of americans, there were 3 blonds that were very friendly and when they asked where i came from i said Chile, one responded with”omg! CHINA” you could think it was a misunderstanding (so did i but im a black 16 year old girl who speaks Spanish soo not Chinese at all”, then i repeated “no CHILE” to which they responded “emm.. whats that” i couldn’t believe it, i had never met anyone so dumb

then i met other kids who weren’t so bright but were sort of ok i guess, until THEY started talking about how dumb americans were…
i found it weird, but i had fun though, so i ask, there is no way ALL americans are dumb, assuming that would be STUPID of me, but really, i have been in europe and a lot of places in latin america, and i never met people like this (not that they were ad or anything), but are lot of americans like this?
excuse my english, its not my first language
with “ad” i meant “bad”
and those kids i was talking about were americans
guys theres not need for the insults, im not CALLING americans STUPID, im asking you about what you think and telling you my experiences with SOME americans, i clearly stated that i didnt think all of them were dumb
just because chile is a 3rd world country, it doesnt mean the education is bad, almost 90% of our schools are private education, and i know how to speak english and spañish almost perfectly and some french, so i think its very ignorant to say things like “I doubt 3rd world chileans are any more intelligent” or “we make more money and have a higher quality of life than you do” since life here is pretty good, you are the misinformed one dude, and considering america is in a financial crisis i wouldnt say your economy is better (chile´s economy is more stable than america) and there are more people in the US so obiously the rate of succes is higher

I Wont Lose My Job With Asking So Much Will I?

September 30, 2012 / / 1 Comment

Question by Codreezy: I Wont Lose My Job With Asking So Much Will I?
Im Planning on Taking a Cruise to The Bahamas from The Port of Baltimore
7 Days in September 30-October 7, 2012

I Was Considering Taking a 9 Day Trip to China to Tour The Country
(2 Days of Traveling, 7 Days There) From October 14-October 22, 2012

Then I am Still in The Process of Enlisting in The National Guard Which I Will Have to Request Time Of From My Job to Do That, Probably Wouldn’t Ship out Until 2013

But Would That Be To Much to Tell My Job That I Need Nearly 3 and a Half Weeks Off for My Traveling in The End of September – Near the End of October ?
Then Informing Them (if Successful) in Enlistment in The Military Reserves That I’ll Need time off for Training ?

Best answer:

Answer by richardw
They can’t drop you for the national guard stuff, but, they don’t have to let you go take a cruise. Honestly, if I were and employer and knew all the time you were planning to take off, I might be temped to find a way to get rid of you/make you quit… depending on what the job is. If making room in the schedule and workplans is seriously affected by your time off, be ready for a less than friendly work environment.

If it’s something like working at a restaurant, no biggie, you can always find another one. If it’s something you went to school for, you might wait for a natural break in employment before you take off for a couple weeks.

September 28, 2012 / / 3 Comments

Question by : Girls, what do you think about me? Would you want to date/be friends with a guy like me?

– I’m 15
– Asian-Canadian (born in Canada)
-Wears glasses (not nerdy ones though)
– Black hair styled similar to Daniel Craig’s
– I have above average intelligence (but not gifted)
– Christian-Catholic
– I enjoy Marksmanship and have a slick trigger finger with 90% accuracy
– Enjoys the occassional singing. Sounds a bit like Bruno Mars. high voice sounds like Prince. Attempted Michael Jackson but failed XD
– TV Shows: CSI, Everybody Hates Chris, Flashpoint, Dog the Bounty Hunter, CTV News???
– Movies: James Bond 007, Rush Hour, Kick-A**, Casino Royale, Speed, Spider-Man, Dark Knight.
– Music: Michael Jackson, Bruno Mars, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Chris Cornell, Eminem
– Enjoys watching Chris Rock
– Conservative on Crime
– Wants to become a Police Officer when I’m older.
– Past crushes (for some reason) all looked similar to Chloe Moretz (yeah, had a crush on her too)
– Never had a girlfriend
– Never really had the guts to talk to a new girl
– Likes my drinks shaken, not stirred (except for soft drinks. I’d prefer neither method for that)
– Good at playing cards (Won $ 8500 in fake money in a Teen Casino on a cruise)
– A member of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets (which means I’m literally sworn in to serve Her Majesty the Queen)
– I know how to treat a girl well
– I travel a lot. I’ve been to Hong Kong, New York City, Bermuda, Macau, Vegas, China.

So, what do you think?

Please no answers like you’re a freak get out. Only honest answers please.

Also, I’m a total sh*t magnet when it comes to things sometimes. For example, I’ve been targeted by a small gang of white supremacists (whom I single-handedly took on, and won)

And my relationships don’t last too long. My closest ever to a girlfriend was dated for three hours (that was because it was on a vacation).

Heck to provide a pic I even went through the trouble of making an account on espin network for the sole purpose of providing a picture because twitter pics aren’t big enough.

Why scamming businesses continue to thrive in America?

Question by redking13_ca: Why scamming businesses continue to thrive in America?
Just got a call telling me I’ve won a free cruise…

How can these businesses still thrive when they are based in america? i can understand when they are in india or china because u.s. law does not apply to them, but shouldn’t these cam artists be arrested?
I thought there were some laws against false advertising…

But i guess if i opened a computer store I could advertise FREE COMPUTERS to attract buyers, then you have to buy a $ 500-1000 warranty to get the free computer…

so i could see how that might work… but still

Ideas for a Sweet 16 in NYC?

September 25, 2012 / / 1 Comment

Question by goody2shoes: Ideas for a Sweet 16 in NYC?
For my Sweet 16, my mom is going to bring 4 of my friends and I to stay overnight in NYC. What are some fun things we can do and good places to eat? Also what good hotels can you recommend? We already came up with these:

-Go to the top of the Empire State Building
-Take a 2 hr cruise around NY on the Circle Line
– Visit St. Patrick’s Cathedral
-Rockerfeller Center
-Central Park (Maybe a horse drawn carriage ride)
-Possibly see an off Broadway Play so it isn’t too expensive
-Then just go shopping at Sephora, Toys R Us and Saks NY, etc.

For eating we were thinking of going to China Town or Mars 2112. Do you have any more suggestions. This will be in the summer also. Thanks!!
