1) Do you believe in karma?
To some extent, yes. I believe that if you do good things, good things will happen to you in return and you'll get rewarded for your actions. Same with if you make a bad decision. It's happened many times in my life.

2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?
Yes. White lies are harmless.

3) What is your view of online relationships?
I agree with Pete in that I think it's odd that people still scoff at them when we are living in an internet-saturated world. There's nothing wrong with starting relationships with people online. I still think though they can't be as truly genuine as face-to-face relationships.

4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
I don't think I'd want to know anything about my future, because then I'd probably stress about it and try to change it. I'd rather just go with the flow.

5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
Nah. I want to keep my soul.

6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
Nope. But my flatmate just looked at me oddly.

1) Do you believe in karma?
Yes.

2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?
I have in the past and I always feel guilty about it later.

3) What is your view of online relationships?
They're great! Contrary to popular belief (lol), the Internet is NOT full of pedophiles and all around bad people. Even if you never meet the people you communicate with in real life, it's still a relationship, just in an online medium.

4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
I'd like to know if I'll be teaching any annoying teacher's pets. LOL

5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
Not really.

6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
Nope!

Easily the best 6 pack we've had in a long time:

1) Do you believe in karma?
Karma is simply the law of cause and effect extended into the realm of intention and the transpersonal energy dynamic, which, on a scientific level, we don't fully understand yet, but it doesn't make it any less real or valid, so yes.

2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?
In some rare and appropriate cases, yes, but a lot can be said for tact and diplomacy. I would more likely say nothing when the truth would be counterproductive or inappropriate.

3) What is your view of online relationships?
Amazing. Completely valid. They come with limitations and challenges like any good relationship. I really don't know how else to answer that.

4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
There's kind of a catch 22 here in that all of the situations in life that I crave certainty about are also all the things that demand a certain amount of faith and, for a lack of a better way of putting it, surrender, both of which require a certain degree of uncertainty in order for the future to manifest in the way it's intended to.

5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
There is the probable loophole that if I sell my soul for purely selfless and altruistic purposes then the devil's claim on my soul is completely nullified, so I would sell my soul to benefit someone else.

6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
Nope, but I got skills nonetheless.

1) Do you believe in karma?
Karma is a religious concept that has it's merits and flaws but it's fairly obvious that if you treat people with love and respect then you will get that back.
2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?
I think we all do that for both selfish and selfless reasons. If someone is down for a genuine reason then if you are empathetic then you should gee up people but not to the point that you are doing it for the sake of it.
3) What is your view of online relationships?
The internet has it's detractors but it is also a great tool in connecting people that you wouldn't come into contact with otherwise. They are not the same as normal relationships for sure but if they bring happiness into peoples lives then why not?
4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
The future should stay unwritten and I will see how it goes.
5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
A few more inches
6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
no but I do have a pointed tongue and not a round tongue

1) Do you believe in karma?
Yes, I don't know why though. But I absolutely do.
2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?
Yes, I couldn't have the heart to tell someone the truth if the truth wasn't pretty. What harm does making people feel good about themselfs do?
3) What is your view of online relationships?
They're unrealistic, but at the same point in time I have met some pretty amazing people that I don't know in person. I just couldn't start a relationship with someone I hadn't met. All the memories would be based on a desktop. Doesn't sound like much fun really.
4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
I'd be curious as to which direction I went in relationship wise, wither I finally got a decent boyfriend etc.
5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
A happy life, with good relationships.
6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
YES! My tongue is abnormally long. I get stares when I stick my tongue out to someone. Literally.

1)Do you believe in karma?

I kind of do, in the theoretical sense. Practically... it doesn't seem existent, which is a travesty.

2)Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?

Yeah... sometimes you just need to, I guess.

3)What is your view of online relationships?

They're sad and pathetic.

4)If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?

When will I meet my significant other (or if I ever will for that matter).

Maybe my time of death as well, why not.

5)Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?

Unlimited passage to heaven

6)Can you touch your nose with your tongue?

That's what she asked.

Thanks lady.

1) Do you believe in karma?
I'm going to have to go with no. As a basic rule, people who do good receive good and the same for bad people. But it seems to me there are too many exceptions to this rule to make it so.
2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?
I'm guilty.
3) What is your view of online relationships?
The internet is a great way to get to know people you'd never be able to meet otherwise. And what's wrong with that? It does scare me when people talk online for 6 months, meet once and then get hitched. It's all about being smart and using common sense.
4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
If I'm going to die happy.
5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
Can't say that there is really.
6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
I have many talents...but this is not one of them.

1) Do you believe in karma?
Yeah, but being bat**** crazy, you believe in all sorts of ****.

2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?

I think that's meaner than telling the truth, besides most people think I'm a bitch anyway.
3) What is your view of online relationships?
Wherever you can find love, baby
4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
If I get old.
5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
I don't have to sell my soul, he's already in me (lol)
No, I wouldn't
6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
Nah

1) Do you believe in karma?
A little bit. Though maybe it's just paranoia.

2) Would you ever lie to someone to make them feel good about themselves?
For sure. Chicks always say stuff like "I'm fat" fishing for opinions. It's just not worth telling the truth sometimes.

3) What is your view of online relationships?
Meaning what? Real relationships with people you met online? Or strictly online relationships, like those I have with all of you? Whichever it is, they are what they are.

4) If you could only know one thing about your future, what would you want to know?
Actually I'd rather not know any of it.

5) Assuming the devil exists, is there anything you’d sell your soul to him for?
Happiness. But I doubt the devil could give me that.

6) Can you touch your nose with your tongue?
No
