Is there a way to save a video off of youtube?
My friend saw that a friend of her boyfriends exgirlfriend stupidly uploaded a video of them destroying some of his property, a bass, amp and clothing. He may press charges/sue so we'd like to get those videos before they catch wind of the fact that she'll be slapped in the face with the law.

I've already tried vixy.net and its giving me an error saying youtube is down.

When was the last time you went to the dentist?
Do you go regularly or only when you need to?
How often do you brush your teeth?
Do you have "good" teeth, or are they "messed up"?


I've been dealing with massive jaw pain for the last 3 weeks and I can't take it anymore! I found a dentist that can take me some time tomorrow (I have to call in the morning and they'll work me in). They are going to deal with my emergency, then schedule me another appointment for a full on exam. It has been waaayyy too long since my last one (thanks to no insurance).

For those not American, what different words do Americans use that surprise and/or confuse you?

I applied for an ER Registration Clerk job last night. I REALLY want this job. What are the chances of them even looking at my application when I only have one spot filled out under work experience that was back in 2005? I filled it out online--how long does it usually take places to look at online applications?

How are you today?

Kings and potentates are often known by sobriquets and epithets, Alexander is great and Ivan is tremble kind of thing.

So tell me TQC what would Your sobriquet be? what would you want it to be? what are you hate for it to be?

After perusing a few AMA members' LJ profiles, I noticed alot of you are friends on LJ.


How many of you met and friended each other through AMA, and how many of you were LJ friends before AMA? Another way of phrasing it might be: what does AMA mean to you??


ETA: It seems like AMA's pretty darn epic. xD

When I first heard about this community a year or so ago, I didn't think it would be terribly interesting, I thought it was a giant meme "what did you eat for breakfast, who do you think is dreamy" and while there is some of that, and I do find it amusing, I was happy to find there is lots of interesting debate that goes on here. Some threads have even made me change my opinion on things I didn't expect, which I think is pretty awesome!

On to the actual question:

What do you think makes a good debate? Who do you think is best at it? Why?

Go into your AMA profile and take a peek.

How many comments have you posted? How many posts have you posted?

Have any of you volunteered with a local rape crisis center? What was it like?

Would you generally be overdressed or underdressed at a party?

Bonus for pictures of what you like to wear to go out partying!

Two books in a row now I've picked up, read through quickly being unable to put them down and then was left at the end with a feeling of not being sure if I liked them or not. Just a slightly disappointed "huh" instead of the highly irritated "ugh" that comes from hating a book or the almost orgasmic "...wow" that comes from loving it. The first was Darkly Dreaming Dexter and the latest was Wicked.

So AMA what was the last book or books that simply left you with "huh" over "ugh" or "...wow"? What about the book/story made you feel that way? What did you feel it was missing?


There will most likely be spoilers to various books in the comments.

I just put some turkey in the slowcooker and it kinda stunk.

Should I be concerned?

With children (in particular) having severe peanut allergies, many schools have banned peanut butter or have it as a strong guideline for something to not be brought to school. This I'm sure is not news to anyone.

I found out the other day that the high school my sister attends has (more or less) banned oranges from being brought to school. This is after an Educational Assistant "passed by someone eating an orange at the beginning of the year" (says my sister) and went into anaphylactic shock and the rule was brought into effect.

My question to you is should these sort of rules be put into effect at all?.. after one person (a staff member, not an unaware child) reacts to it? Do you think the rules/guidelines are more acceptable at an elementary school rather than secondary school setting?

Don't worry, someone else is cooking the turkey.  AMAers, your task is to cook a side dish/dessert/salad/whatever.

What do you bring?  Include your recipes!

I emailed a school's admissions/recruitment counselor two days ago regarding some questions I had about a program that I'm really excited about. The questions were basically, would I be qualified for admission, how could I strengthen my application (I included a short summary of my academic/volunteer/work background), and if any prerequisites that I took here in Panama would work for their prerequisite requirement there.

She hasn't emailed me back. Is it took early to call her and ask these questions over the phone? How long should I wait? Is it typical for admissions counselors to just ignore emails (not that this one is, but I've emailed a shit ton months ago, and no one has ever gotten back to me)?
