- Andres Salinas wants to know:
- "What can I do if the woman I love is moving to another state?"
- Oh man, that's just such a bummer.
- If you love her that much, then move with her.
- If you really love her, you will follow her
so that you can be together.
- If the other state is nearby, then you can travel to see her.
- Maybe video chat.
- The world is just filled with a lot of communication right now.
Texting, calling, Skype.
- That's hard. I did long-distance for a little bit.
If there's hope, I would say stay with it
because if you find that certain girl, you don't want to let her go.
- You can try a long-distance relationship but let me tell you from experience--
that doesn't work so great.
So maybe you better give the girl a goodbye kiss, and that's what you got.
- You will be separated for most of the time
and so if you're people who can't make it work face-to-face,
I'm gonna try to say you have to learn to move on.
- If you love her, you have to let her go.
- Let her go!
There's always that saying, where it's like,
"If you really love each other, it'll end up reconnecting."
Let her live her life. Don't follow her. That's not okay.
- Well, I hate to say this but you may need to break up.
- Find another girlfriend in your neighborhood.
- If I was you, I would kind of have to move on
just because she could be having another man in the other state.
You never know.
- Move on. (laughs)
That's a tough one.
I was in the opposite situation where I thought I was in love with someone
and moved from Oregon back to California.
She ended up dating one of my best friends afterwards.
So you could do that, and date one of her best friends.
Yeah, date one of her best friends 'cause that's what happened to me.
- August Simmer4 says:
- "How do I eat Cheetos without licking my fingers?"
- Wash them before you lick your fingers.
- Have a napkin or a wet wipe next to you.
- Lots of napkins. Maybe wet napkins to get it off.
- Wear... a glove and you can eat the Cheetos?
- The easiest thing to do is find somebody else to lick 'em for you.
- You're not eating Cheetos right if you're not licking your fingers after.
- It's physically impossible.
You just need to lick your fingers.
- You can't.
That salty finger is so delicious after you finish the Cheetos.
- Lick your fingers, man. Don't let anyone bring you down.
Why would you be eating Cheetos if you're not gonna lick your fingers?
Isn't that part of the whole process?
- People say you look like an animal when you're sitting there,
licking it all off, but what are you supposed to do with all that cheese?
Like, you can't let it go to waste, so keep going.
- Jason Camarillo asks:
- "Any survival tips for being the middle child?"
- Go up to your parents, at least once a week, and just be like,
"Hey, I exist!"
- Just hang in there 'cause you may end up being the one
who really succeeds in your family.
- I think finding your own thing and focusing on that would be the best.
- Since you have an older brother or sister,
probably, you know, be nice to them.
- Be nice to your older siblings. Be very nice.
- Try to make it as best you can.
Your older sibling will eventually move out,
and so you will be the oldest for a moment in time.
- Don't get so sad because everybody says
the oldest and the youngest child gets the favorite.
For an Oreo, do you like the cream or do you like the cookie?
You like the cream, so that's good for being a middle child!
- I was a middle child.
You're always the bad one.
You're always the one that doesn't do anything right.
Just have confidence in yourself then, no matter what they say,
that first child isn't perfect, no matter what,
and neither is the baby.
- You're the lucky one who flies under the radar.
Like, the older one has already taken care of business,
and has broken in your parents.
The younger one's the baby,
and everyone's gonna be focused on the baby.
YOU, my friend, get to do a lot of cool things
that people are like, "Whatever. Second time around."
So I would just say take advantage of that.
- Scott Davis asks:
- "Why is a building called a building when it's already built?"
- I don't know.
- That's a very good question.
That could be a world wonder.
- That's a great question.
You know, why do we park in a driveway and drive on a parkway?
- The English language is already pretty messed up,
so I feel like just accept it and move on.
- I really don't know.
I didn't devise the English language and a lot of things in English
don't make too much sense.
- Ask your English teacher.
- Well the verb "to build," the noun "building,"
and I think it's just all that it's in a relationship.
- I guess that's just what the name was called for it.
- A construction worker said, "Um, when are we gonna build this building?"
or missaid something and then the manager caught on
and started calling it a building.
- Onyx and Sunstone asks:
- "What do I do if I forget my homework?"
- I'm a teacher.
You're asking the wrong man that question.
- I don't know. Your dog ate your homework.
Go with that.
- Say, "I forgot my homework. I'll bring it the next day,"
and that should do it.
- Bring it the next day if you couldn't do it with a parent's signature.
- Ask for maybe a half credit because, over all, that was your fault.
- The first time, you can probably speak to the teacher
and say, "I'm sorry. I forgot my homework."
But if it happens again, you're out of luck.
- Honesty is the best policy.
You gotta go in, you gotta talk to your teacher,
and you gotta say, "I'm sorry I forgot it,"
and maybe you take a lower grade or something.
- Thank the teacher for an extension and let the teacher know
that you promise to do the homework
and that you will have it to her or him at X time.
- I shouldn't be saying this, but I'm really good at lying.
So if you make it up, sounding like you were busy,
sometimes teachers will let it go.
- I doubt this will work, but if you're really desperate
you could try making up an elaborate excuse.
"The aliens abducted me this morning,
and I-- they took my homework with them!"

(confused) I'm... building-- building a building.
Oh my god.
