03:25 - Twitter - A friend wants to be my roommate, but I would rather not room with him. What should I tell him? -- Wobbly Orbit
06:23 - Email - My best friend wants to experiment and try meeting some men. There is a great gay club up the street from me, and I want to take him there to help him out. Two things: I'm straight, and I've never been a wingman before. Orientation isn't really a problem (been there a few times with my girlfriend, had a great time); what I need is some advice on how to be a great wingman. There are some rules that I should know no matter what the situation, or does this scenario require something more specific? -- Trying to Help in Jersey

Should the Bible be updated with online etiquette?

24:37 - Email - My dearest My Brother My Brother and Me. I found myself in a predicament I've never been in before. I've fallen in love with someone several magnitudes less intelligent than me. We've been dating for five months and our relationship is absolutely wonderful; however, I'm afraid of using words she probably doesn't know, or making references to things not found on the Real Housewives in fear of making her feel dumb. Can this relationship actually work out? -- Dumbfounded in Indiana

36:12 - Email - I'm a native Texan who recently relocated to Melbourne, Australia, (for love) and I'm at a linguistic crossroads. People down here say "mate" all the time, like in the movies, and I can't make myself do it. I say 'man' in the same way, like "hey thanks man" That doesn't really fly down under. Should I assimilate, or should I shake them haters off. -- Linguistic Blunder Down Under
39:40 - Email - I am coming to realize that I'm even more into live music than any of my friends, or at least the only one into it enough to pay a non-refundable two hundred and fifty dollars on a drunken whim to go to Bonnaroo this year. I know at least Griffin is into music festivals, but if any of you have advice for a first-time attendee with what seems like no backup I'd really appreciate it. Alternatively, what is the best way to guilt/convince my friends into going with me.[Note 1] -- Will G
48:46 - Email - Serious problemo in England. I recently impregnated my wife for the third time, and she is now insisting that close down my baby factory by having the man-snip, but I'm not sure I fancy that. What are your thoughts, and please help me? -- Dave in England
