Dear Kathleen,
There are too many stupid people. What can I do to combat this? (Besides working to not be stupid myself, that's trivial.)
Sincerely, Melendwyr
Dear Melendwyr,
If I have to hang out with the borderline retarded every day, so do you.
Sincerely, Kathleen

Dear Kathleen,
TL, DR. Grad school, concerns, applying, ZOMG.
tak197
Dear Tak,
Cover your bases and apply to several schools. They usually only look at your last 60 credit hours anyhow (since it's a bit silly to consider first year grades - even the most brilliant people may have some really terrible grades from misguided course selection on their transcripts.) If you don't get in right away, do what my friend Gerald did - take some more undergrad classes, then apply again. He got accepted into Columbia in NYC.

Dear Kathleen,

Dear Kathleen,
I have noticed that as girls breasts grow, they get stupid. Do girls use brain matter to grow breasts? Did you find a way to re grow you brain?
Yours, Angry Misoginistic Nerd.
Dear Kathleen,
Why is being on the football team attractive while being on the chess and/or debate team isn't?
Yours, Nerd who can't get a date.
Dear Nerd
1) Breasts are made of fat. If you think girls with big boobs are dumb, perhaps your brain is made of fat, just like a breast. Perhaps this is where you got this stupid idea. Stupid girls come in all shapes and cup sizes.
2) Society tells weak minded people who want to fit in that guys on the football team are more attractive than people who aren't. I can't possibly fathom why people would think this. Actually, I'm probably a terrible person to answer this question. Graham doesn't even own a pair of running shoes, and I think he's great. My biggest celebrity crush right now is John Darnielle. http://www.themountaingoats.net/
I am the worst person to ask ever.
Yours,
Kathleen, OMG John Darnielle touched my hand and looked me in the eyes when I saw him play at Richard's *melt*, De Vere

Kathleen,
I'm a High school teacher. I recently had a student inform me that he uses steroids "all the time." I did as I was trained and notified his guidance councilor, the At-risk coordinator, and the Dean. The problem is that the student is one of our star athletes. I was called into a meeting with all of the people mentioned above with the addition of the head coach. I was informed that there would be no drug test, and was forced to sign a contract stating that if I told anyone else about the incident (parents, the media, and the like) I would be fired. The Dean made it perfectly clear that if I was terminated in this way, it would be next to impossible for me to find another job.
The way I see it, I could break my contract and report the incident to the powers that be. This may save the student from possible death, but destroy my future in a career I love.
What do I do?
Dear ENGeek,
Holy shit, speak to a lawyer specializing in labour law. Seek professional advice.
If you are really concerned about this, find another job (in another town, possibly state) and tip off the media.
Like seriously, holy crap, Kathleen
PS - Nanowimo winner? Can you give me some writing tips?

Dear Kathleen,
Plastic surgery continues to increase in prevalence, what is your opinion of the "perfect image through Barbie transmogrification" culture on the rise?
Should women pay exorbitant amounts of money to be pulverised on a surgery table to look "pretty"? Is there really that much point to doing so?
Sincerely, local concerned philogynist, Tim
Dear Tim,
If they want to fill their bodies with strange fluids, it's up to them. Personally, I prefer to generate all my own fluids because they are free. I am old fashioned that way.

Liebe Kathleen,
my 67 year old mother often doesn't eat that much. When asked why, she replies that she doesn't want to get fat.
At flea-markets she's always looking at dresses for little children. I'm afraid that she sees those tiny dresses as a role model for herself and starves herself to death to fit into them.
How should I approach this situation?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Casandro
Liebe Casandro,
I would suggest you talk to your mother honestly, and let her know how concerned you are. There is no easy answer for this. Good luck,
Kathleen

Dear Kathleen,
Do you think LRR could celebrate the wonderous gift the Graham has brought to us?
A day were we celebrate the replace of the f with the ph?
Maybe we could call it, phff day.

Dear Kathleen,
Is there any chance that you could turn these questions around on us, with much ensuing hilarity?

Yes. I'd say there's a good chance.

I also forgot to ask where is the second F in double stuf oreos?

So no one want's to talk to me, how to I fix this with out giving up yoyoing?
Dear CM,
Don't give up on something because people don't think it's cool. It's not technically "cool" to play the accordion, but that doesn't make it any less awesome. Talk to people on the internet who share your passion.
Sincerely,
Kathleen

Dear Kathleen,
Have you ever thought about doing a collaborative "ask LRR" or something with Alex, or are you two competing for question-answering dominance?

HomeBurger
Dear Homeburger,
I think ask an alex is really funny, but very different. Occasionally I dispense helpful advice. Alex is more of insane forum fun, and I'm like an ill-tempered Ann Landers with a sarcasm addiction. It would be a little hard for us to collaborate. We live thousands and thousands of kilometres apart.
With a witty twist on your stand-in for "sincerely".

Dear Kathleen,
What shall we use to fill the empty spaces, where we used to talk?

Nobody asks Graham, so he doesn't answer. How many advice columns do you people need?
Truly Yours,

P.S. You barely know me. Once you have smelled how bad this one pair of my shoes stinks, I don't think you'll love me anymore. They are awful.

Dear Kathleen,
We have seen Graham dance several times in various videos. What kind of dancing do you like best, and did you dance the dance of the senses to draw Graham into your web?
Best Regards,
WordNerd
Dear WordNerd,
I like jumping up and down and rocking out while watching a band, tapping your toes and bobbing to the beat at a concert, not traditional dancing. I actually cannot dance any better than you see in the phailhouse videos.
Also, if I had tried to dance for Graham, it would have probably acted more as a repellant than an attractant.

Kathleen

Come on up here to Okaloosa for a bit. Snow white beaches and emerald green water. ^_^
CT, as gorgeous as that sounds, emerald green is such a dark shade of green, water that color may not be the best thing to swim in.

Better than stale-tea-colored. Wakulla Springs, as good as they may be, turn a very disgusting shade of orangey-brown every single time it rains. Every single time it rains. And it's infested with rednecks. Who I hate more than Barney, or Teletubbies.

Dear Kathleen,
I recently emailed Paul, but did not get a response, does Paul actually check his LRR email address or am I considered "spam"
Thanks,
Rob Leggatt
Dear Kathleen,
What is your opinion on communism?
additionally, would you care for some Leninade?
Trying to think of a witty way to sign this question off,

Dear Kathleen,
Are you being driven mad now by the fact we're now just spamming even more questions after you answered the last 2 weeks or so worth of questions before?
Do you think we lust after your wisdom and knowledge and indispenable word?
Yours listening intently,
RC

Kathleen,
I'm a High school teacher. I recently had a student inform me that he uses steroids "all the time." I did as I was trained and notified his guidance councilor, the At-risk coordinator, and the Dean. The problem is that the student is one of our star athletes. I was called into a meeting with all of the people mentioned above with the addition of the head coach. I was informed that there would be no drug test, and was forced to sign a contract stating that if I told anyone else about the incident (parents, the media, and the like) I would be fired. The Dean made it perfectly clear that if I was terminated in this way, it would be next to impossible for me to find another job.
Dear ENGeek,
Holy shit, speak to a lawyer specializing in labour law. Seek professional advice.
If you are really concerned about this, find another job (in another town, possibly state) and tip off the media.
Like seriously, holy crap, Kathleen
PS - Nanowimo winner? Can you give me some writing tips?
UPDATE!
I went to the school board and presented them with all documentation surrounding the issue. I handed them e-mails and even a copy of the contract they had me sign. While I wasn't officially fired, I was advised to leave as i had stirred up all sorts of trouble. I was also assured that appropriate action would be taken against all parties involved.
I'm only 23 and I have already been dismissed for doing what I felt was right. This is the point where you turn the magic-8-ball over to reveal "outlook not so good."
Writing tips? I have plenty. I teach composition with a specialty in creative writing. Now the writing on LRR is amazing so I feel silly doling out tips here but...
My two big tips:
1 Read an author who has an amazing literary voice and try to emulate it. Trying on the voice of the greats is the best way to find your own. (I always try to sound like john Hodgeman or John Gardner.)
2 Just write--even if its shitty--just write. Always. The moment you stop writing and question what you're doing, writer's block will hit you square in the face. Worse if you stop for days, weeks, or (god save you) months, you may never be able to pick up your pen to finish your work. If you can squeeze out 500 words a day, then you are a writer.
Ps. Winning nanowrimo is easy. Just write 50,000 words in 30 days.
This is a metaphor.

Dear Kathleen,
Of the two versions of the song Mad world, which do you prefer, Tears for Fears or Gary Jules? Or, do both of them make you rage with the red hot intensity of a thousand burning suns?

ENGeek: I wouldn't worry about finding another job in a different district. All you need to do is under the why you no longer work there write something to the effect of, "Uncovered Steroid abuse in the athletics department and was fired for contacting law enforcement after administrators said that there was nothing wrong with it." Also contact law enforcement.

Angry Misoginistic Nerd: People who find they can get by on their looks usually do. Girls with big boobs can often fall into this catagory but big boobs is not enough.

1. cake: Big boobs are actually not enough, friend. Big brains are better--trust me. the least attractive woman I know also has the largest breasts. The most attractive, my fiancee, has the biggest brains.
2. Pikaqofborg: I am having a hell of a time finding work. I have put more than a little thought into getting a teaching license in Canada.
This is largely do to Loading Ready Run dispelling myths I held about the region. There was a time when I truly believed it to be a barren field of snow filled with strange woodland-folk and the French. Now I see that this is not the case.
