http://www.wikihow.com/Attract-a-Sporty-Girl-when-You-Are-Not-Into-Sports

This article will tell you how to attract a sporty girl, when you are not into sports.

Steps

1. When asking her out, do so romantically and kindly. It will make up for not liking sports as much as she does.
2. Try your best to like at least one sport. This will definitely help you. If she asks whats your favorite sport, you won't have to lie.
3. Always think of her first over anyone. She will like that, especially if she is a bit competitive. Ask her for her number and tell your mom you wanna call her and invite her over to hangout or something.
4. Ask your mom if she will take you guys out to lunch together somewhere. She probably will, so you just need to get the girl to!
5. Have a sense of humor. This can definitely help you, because girls are often attracted to guys who are funny.


Tips

Be nice to her.

How to Deal With People Who Swear when You Do Not

This article will tell you how to deal with people around you who swear a lot.

Steps

1. Ask them to stop. This is the first step to getting them to stop. If this didn't work go straight on to step two. If they do stop, your problem is hopefully solved.
2. Ignore them. Block out all the noise they are making by maybe listening to music or moving into a place where you cannot hear them.
3. Move away. Go into another room and SHUT THE DOOR. This will most likely work and you will not hear them. If this does not work...
4. Go into another place completely. You could go outside if you were inside or inside if you were outside.
5. If they are REALLY annoying you, report them to the manager of the facility you are in (if they are available) or tell an adult around you.

Tips

Gentle reminders to stop the habit can be helpful, not score counting or lectures.
Try not to make anyone angry when you say things to people.
Try to avoid the situation that you think will bring to the swearing.

How to React Immaturely when Someone Insults You

Are you sick of when people have annoyed you, and then you don't know what to say and people laugh at you? Well with this guide, you can learn how to get people laughing at the person who insulted you, or give them a taste of their own medicine.

Steps

1. Don't listen. This really can work sometimes. For example: Person: You are such a loser! You (to your friend): Do you hear something?
2. Send their insult back at them. For example: Person: "You are such a loser." You: "If I'm a loser, then I'd hate to know what you are!" However, retaliating often results in an argument that nobody wins and makes you the lesser person. And it is usually what they want to happen.
3. Use the one line that almost never fails: "You wanna bet?" If they say yes, go up to someone and ask them if they think you are whatever the person said you are or do. For example: Person: "You are so gay!" You: "You wanna bet?" Person: "Yeah, OK!" You: (go up to someone and say): "Do you think I'm gay?" And then you can take it from there. Beware - the other person may agree and you'll end up a laughing stock.
4. Say,"It takes one to know one." And smile smugly.
5. Pretend they are a breeze. When they talk say "Is there a wind in here?" and "There it is again!" and "It's coming from right over there (point to person); that's so weird!" If you're on a bus with no open windows say "There are no open windows - where is that breeze coming from?".
6. If you're near your friends, and only one guy's making fun of you, just start telling him every fault that he has. This is definitely useful when with a group of friends who will back you up.
7. If you're as powerful as the guy, and have people that you know will back you up, ask him if he wants to take it outside. He'll probably back down or not show at all.
8. If you are known for being strong, you can step towards them and say 'back off', or 'do you really want to annoy me?' If they think they're stronger than you, this may not work, but if not... Go for it, you aren't doing ANYTHING except reminding them that you're strong and won't accept bullying.
9. Make him/her understand he's worse. For example, if he/she says "you're a loser", tell him/her "You say that!", or "Told by you, it's a compliment!"

Tips

Have a punch line, for when you have sent their insult back at them, "Ooooh burn!" always works

Sometimes, if you do it too often you will look like a loser, have a sort of salute, maybe, punching the air, spinning around or copying the sort of salute a famous person does. For example, I either do the DX sign or Mick Foley's salute if your into wrestling.

Act "cool" stand there with sort of raised eyebrows and a small but winning smile, sort of to say "I'm better than you." And if you are standing against a wall, lean against it.

http://www.wikihow.com/Stop-a-Wedding

We've all seen the movies where a person halts a wedding in progress in order to get back the one they truly love. In reality though, halting a wedding from going ahead - for any reason - is a very delicate situation that can easily backfire on you and spoil a significant day. If you believe you're justified in doing so, however, here are some suggestions for going about stopping a wedding with class and dignity.

Method 2 of 2: At the Wedding

1. Be very cautious about "crashing" a wedding. If you were not able to contact the bride or groom beforehand, and you are sure that you want to proceed, find out the location of the wedding. Unless you have been invited, you will have to find out where the wedding ceremony is to be held, and the exact time. Ask family members or mutual friends if it doesn't appear too suspicious, or perhaps check the wedding notices in the local newspaper.
2. Prepare your speech. If you're going to put a stop to something that has taken months to prepare and probably even longer to agree to, what you have to say needs to be incredibly compelling. Writing out a speech, rehearsing it, and learning it by heart are absolute necessities to overcome nerves and to project it from the heart.
Build an effective case.

  • Keep it brief but powerful.
  • Give reasons why the person you love is marrying the wrong person (and, if your reasoning stems from this, why it should be you instead).
  • Express your undying devotion to the bride or groom (if you're breaking up the marriage for romantic reasons).
3. Find a suitable place to wait. Do not allow yourself to be seated by the ushers. This increases the odds that you may be stuck in a bad part of the audience that will make it difficult for you to make your objection. If you have to, wait until everyone has been seated and the wedding is underway before you enter the foyer of the building.
  • If the wedding is outdoors, keep a good distance until the bride has walked the aisle.
4. Be in position when the ceremony begins. The best spot is at the back door of the church or room in which the ceremony is taking place. If the wedding is outdoors, move to the back of the aisle or seating area.5. Object. When the reverend, marriage celebrant, or judge asks if anyone should object to the marriage, step forward between the first few rows of seats in the back of the room. Boldly but smoothly raise your hand and say, "I object."
  • At this point you must immediately provide a reason why your the groom/bride must not marry the other person. This is where your well-rehearsed speech will ensure that you sound convincing and will help prevent you from coming across as weak, crazy, or insecure.
  • Some weddings no longer include this phrase. Unless you are sure this wedding does it might simply be better to talk to your love ahead of time.
6. Wait. The bride or groom will have only a few seconds to make a decision and everyone this person knows will be hanging on his or her answer. If he or she objects, quietly exit the room and walk away without making a scene. Don't be surprised if things do not go as you hoped; this is a very left-field, highly emotionally charged act. Instead, be gracious, nod politely, and apologize.
  • Exit the wedding without making a fuss. You've probably already caused enough emotional trauma for the guests present (which is why it is exceedingly important to always think long and hard before going through with this).
  • Have a taxi waiting, or your car, ready to make a fast exit.
  • If you need to speak with your beloved, wait until after the honeymoon and send an email or text asking to meet up.
7. Take charge if things go your way. If he or she decides not to go through with the wedding, it is your duty to immediately escort the bride/groom away from the pressure of their family and friends. There is no doubt that friends and family will be angry or furious and will demand answers if the bride or groom doesn't immediately flee the scene.
  • Have a get-away car prepared so that the bride or groom doesn't have to face the embarrassment of his or her friends and family.
8. Move forward in the aftermath. If your reasons were non-romantic, be a supportive friend to the bride or groom as they heal from this separation; even if it was their decision not to wed, it's still an emotional time and they will need support. If your reasons were romantic and you've won the heart of your beloved, enjoy life with your new partner. Be aware, however, that you're never guaranteed a storybook ending. Someone who is likely to walk from a wedding may be afraid of commitment, and insecure in relationships. This could pose problems for your relationship.

Warnings

  • Objecting to a marriage is risky and your odds of pulling it off are slim at best.
  • If you really respect and care about this person, talk to him/her ahead of time in private. Speaking up for the first time at the wedding in front of a crowd of people can be a very hurtful, impolite way to handle the situation.
  • Your 'beloved' may hate you.
  • You should try your best to work out any potential issues with your "beloved" before the day of the wedding. If you can't talk to the person and air your concerns, you should take that as a sign that breaking up the wedding is not the correct course of action.
  • In many weddings in this day and age the officiant does not ask if anyone objects.
  • In attempting to steal a soon-to-be spouse away, you will face the anger of their family and friends. If you attempt to break up a wedding, you may well ensure continuing hatred from your "beloved" and everybody else involved.
  • Unless you want to face immediate repercussions or you're dealing with a very understanding family, it might be a good idea to move to a different part of the country afterward. You should have a job and place to live in mind before you depart.
  • Seek psychological counsel. What you are suggesting is rare, not normal, and will cause life-changing memories for everyone in the room. You may also want legal counsel -- if you make any negative remarks about another person, you're likely to be sued for slander.

  • Someone paying for the date usually signifies that you are on a date

* An example of highly positive language would be: "That's the most gorgeous hat I've ever seen!" when the speaker really means, "No, I do not like that hat."
* An example of highly negative language would be: "Well that's one way to really blow an exam!" as opposed to, "Congratulations on your top grade."[1]

* When English speakers express sarcasm with the word "Thanks!", they often use a nasal tone.
* Some researchers say that this nasal tone shows a connection between sarcasm and extreme disgust.[2]

* If you aren't sure, just ask if they were joking.
* Also try asking the sarcastic person to give you a signal when they are being sarcastic. For example: they could wink any time they make a sarcastic comment.

Do not practice calling 911 using the actual 911 number. You can make an emergency call only when a real emergency occurs.

In Europe, a fork and knife are used differently than in the US. If you are right-handed, eat with the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right. Europeans cut each bite individually with the knife in the right hand and the fork in the left hand, and rest their arms midway between wrist and elbow

Erm... do they not do this in the US? I vaguely recall reading an odd World Book article about how merricuns swap knives and forks but passed it off as an old book.

Go all ga ga and just make baby noises. Say something like "Aw, goo, who's a liddle baby den, coochy coochy coo, look at you!" Total nonsense baby talk can maneuver you right around the issue of ugliness. And it can alleviate your guilt knowing you look like a complete idiot doing baby talk, thereby deflecting the awkward moment of lack of praise into a moment of self-deprecating behavior.

Have you ever been upset because your little sister or brother knew what you were saying? Possibly you just do not think what your parent thinks is right. Whatever the case may be, this is the article for you!

Steps
1.Think of what you want the culture to be called. Make it different and cool. If you want to make up a totally different way of life, you could make a language
2. Make up a good lie you know. No one knows for sure what religion is true; we just know that we think is true.
3. Spread the belief. Type up a bible of made up stories including the big lie of the main person you worship for your belief.
4. Act like you really love the belief you really think it. Your cultrue should be as big as a belief as Christian or Hindu.

Tips
• If you want to make a language, make sure it sounds cool. Try not to make it like gibberish, and make sure you do not sound like a crazy person.
• Try to have fun!

Warnings
• Depending on your language or culture, people might think you are crazy so make it cool and sense.

How to Be a Maggot

The Term "Maggot" doesn't mean those icky little creatures, no, they mean you are the heaviest-metal type of fan. The term "Maggot" came from the drummer from Slipknot, Joey Jordison. He created it for a fan, and then it caught on.

Steps
1. Listen To Metal Bands Like: Slipknot, Murderdolls, Lamb of god, kOrn and other artists.
2. Wear shirts, hats and other clothing.
3. Don't let being a maggot let your grades go down. Being a Maggot can be cool, but good grades will help the parents buy you CD's and other Band Items.
4. Don't be a low Maggot, like a series of bands, you can have a favorite, but if you like one, you'll never find another (Slipknot and Disturbed are cool.)
5. If you go to concerts, don't get into fights.
6. Have a specific band member that you like
7. Learn an instrument. Drums and guitar is the first thing. But if you like Nu-Metal, learn Turn-Tables.
8. Start a band! What a better way to become a maggot!

Tips
• Maggots look scary, with the face paint and the fauxhawks, you can be a maggot and still look like you.
• The Maggot will find you. If you force yourself to be a maggot, you won't like yourself at all.
• Don't listen to crap-metal. Stuff that only goes "YYYYAAAAAAAHHHHHH" isn't that good. Metal with actual lyrics are insane.
• If your parents ask you, "why do you like Metal so much? It's for idiots!"
• Say "why do you listen to (they're genre of music)?" and you will stop them straight in their tracks. If you think that's going too far, simply say "Why don't you?"

Warnings
• Going to concerts sound like fun, but it can hurt. At every concert, the chances are a moshpit will happen several times .
• Don't let the Maggot bring you grades down, that isn't cool.
Don't use drugs!
