Q: How do I prompose to somebody? I don't wanna be lousy and just get a poster with some cheesy saying and snacks. How do I make it special?

A: If you’re against that way of asking, I’d suggest bringing promposals back to the basics. Sometimes simplicity is everything, and if you combine that with a touch of romance, your future date will easily be wooed. A lot of promposals seem to be more about puns these days than the actual person you’re asking to be your date, which can be fun, but if you’re looking for something different, show that person that you appreciate them with something like a classic bouquet of roses and a sincere request to be their date and they may appreciate that on a deeper level than they would with a cheesy joke. If you’d like to do something a bit more extravagant, go to their doorstep at night, line up candles in the formation of “prom?”, and maybe even a heart, and ring the doorbell. Just make sure you plan a little bit with the family before you do this, you probably don’t want to end up going to prom with that person’s grandma.

Q: New phone, who dis?

A: Nice try.

Q: What's a word that rhymes with test?

A: If you’re asking this to finish a rhyme for your poetry assignment it looks as if you haven’t tried your best.

Q: I don’t have a question, but I do have a suggestion for prom and hopefully prom committee will hear this out. How about having a girl’s turn to ask boys to dance (slow dance) and a boy’s turn to ask the girls they want in a dance (again, slow). The EmCee should be really good at this :)

A: That’s a good idea, but if it isn’t followed through don’t be afraid to ask whoever it is you want to ask to dance during the night, I mean, unless they have a serious date accompanying them. Prom night’s the time to put aside your nerves so just go out there, be confident, and have a blast.

Q: HT SUCKS LOYOLA ALL THE WAY BABY

A: “This will get them,” they say with a smirk after typing out their wicked burn, “I’m so glad I went through the trouble of submitting this to Holy Trinity’s newspaper’s advice column. Totally worth it.”
