Aqua_Sophia says:
"How can you tell if a guy likes you?"
Are you serious?
You can't really tell unless you ask him.
So go ask him.
But you might get embarrassed, so I'm sorry.
Sometimes when they like you, guys act like they don't like you.
If he teases you or is really sarcastic with you,
that means he likes you.
They'll be staring at you and flirting with you.
He's always looking at you and in strange ways.
You can usually tell by the way he looks at you,
the way he talks to you.
If he smooths back his hair in front of you and smiles at you
he likes you.
I think that's a sign.
He finds ways to just touch you
or tap you or something.
You can tell if he likes you if he does little things to make you happy.
If he wants to be around you all time, he likes you.
I'll tell you how: if a guy acts like a gentlemen towards you.
Jordan DeWester asks:
"How can I make myself as smart as Sherlock Holmes?"
Try acting like him.
Read the books, watch the show, see what he does.
Maybe that'll rub off on you.
Be aware of what's going on around you.
Do the best you can and observe people.
Become a detective.
Join the police force and you'll find out.
Take police training and forensics training and all that.
In your mind, pretend that you're being Sherlock Holmes.
Start eating more vegetables.
Just use brain food and that helps you keep--
well, it helps me get smarter.
You should read a lot, especially Sherlock Holmes books.
Spend a lot of time in the library.
Read everything you can get your hands on.
Talk to people who know more than you do.
Use Google. Google anything.
Google something that you know little of and just read up on it.
Go to college. Don't drop out of high school.
Go to college, like, four times.
Pay attention in school a lot.
Study everything that he knows. And he'll help you with homework.
If you wanna be as smart as him, study a lot.
And I don't mean just one or two hours.
I mean six or seven and take up the whole day!
Trenchcoats!
You have to wear lots of trenchcoats.
That is where all of his power comes from.
As soon as you put one on, you'll feel totally different.
Your IQ will double, and there you go.
You'll be just as smart as Sherlock Holmes.
Sharon S wants to know:
"How do you handle losing a pet?"
Aww.
Ooh, that's a tough one.
Talk to your parents about it. They'll know what to do.
Think of what it really likes and make a memorial for it.
It happened to me many years ago when I was a kid.
I just got another pet.
I would get another pet.
You can get a new pet and just name it
after the other one that you lost.
Pictures are always great. You have good memories.
Be close with your family. Talk about the pet.
If you have any pictures of your pet, make a scrap book.
Make a collage.
Hang it in your room or something.
Just do something to take your mind off things.
You can watch The Hunger Games.
That always helps.
The best way to handle it is try to take your mind off of it
by doing other things.
Go out, have a bike ride, hang out with your family,
play a board game, watch a movie together.
We're all human and you have to allow yourself
a time to grieve.
But there's many things in life, so you got to move on from there.
Ruman Hassan wants to know:
"How do I get a famous person to follow me on Twitter?"
I don't know. I don't Twitter.
If you become a famous person, he will follow you.
If you follow them, then they'll follow you back,
depending on which famous person it is.
You have to find them in person and just ask them.
Tag them in funny things or in a photo of something funny.
The best way is when they tweet something
try to reply with something funny or unique.
You'd have to start doing things that would get him or her attention.
Write them poetry. I like poetry.
You say super nice things about them and all of their stuff
and, hopefully, they don't block you.
Just don't be too creepy about it.
Never give up. Give them a shout out.
Tag them in a lot of your tweets.
Make sure that they know you exist.
Spam a picture or a message over and over again.
To get you stop annoying them, they'll have to follow you.
As annoying as it is, you just have to spam them.
Constantly get in their business.
"Hey! Hey! Hey!
One Direction, follow me! Hey! Hey! Hey!
One Direction, follow me!" And eventually they'll get
so annoyed that they'll either follow you or block you.
But it's the risk you gotta take.
Avasquez4:
"How do you keep a straight face during a funny moment?"
Laugh!
It's a funny moment. Laugh!
You have to control your face. That's all.
You're asking the wrong person 'cause I laugh at the most serious moments.
Zone out of the moment.
Just stare at something else.
Don't look directly at what is funny
and it has a little less impact that way.
Breathing out really good because it totally relaxes you,
like when you're meditating.
Punch your leg or bite your tongue.
That's probably the best way to do it.
What I do is I bite the side of my cheeks.
I go like that, but it's less obvious.
Bite your cheeks like...
and just keep telling yourself,
"It's not that funny. It's not that funny."
When I do it in my head, I'll be like this:
"Don't smile, don't smile, don't smile, don't smile, don't smile."
In my head, when it's funny, I'll be like:
Think about something very, very, very serious.
Be as sad as you can and you won't smile or laugh.
Just think of bad thoughts.
There's no way to keep yourself from laughing.
You might just have a little...(snickers)
Like...(snickers)
And everyone looks at you, but you can be like,
"Yes? I laughed.
Do you have problem with that?"
