Rachmaninoff

I know I shouldn't laugh at this, since it does show behavior issues but I can't help it. The full article on it can be found here: [URL="http://www.myfoxorlando.com/dpp/news/011909_taco_kid"][U]Teen charged with assaulting mom with taco[/U][/URL] I know I had my issues with my parents when I was growing up, but it never turned into hitting or tossing food at them. o_O Anyway, what kind of scuffles did you end up having with your own parents? Did you ever toss a taco at anyone? =P

Chibi, Bichon's fall under the small side of medium dogs, since they're under 25lbs. They just don't fall under the toy category. So they can be considered a small breed. Oh and Allamorph, I've heard that Bichon's are quite stubborn on account of being fairly smart, but at the same time, they absoutely love routines, making them very trainable. So that kind of balances it a bit. Or so I've heard. =P

[quote name='Korey][FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"][SIZE="1"][COLOR="Navy"]Remember when I looked at your profile and you got all freaked out? Could have sworn I was gonna give you an infraction for something.... :p[/COLOR][/SIZE'][/FONT][/quote]And I see you've forgotten that the only reason I saw it, was on account of my sending a pm to you for someone else. =P

[quote name='Affliction][FONT="Tahoma"']Lol, I figured the previous name part of my profile would have been sufficient enough.[/FONT][/quote]Oh it is, but unless I have a reason to look, I rarely look at a member's profile. Anyway, welcome back then. You're giving life to the sentiment that once you join OB, you can never get free. =P

I'm not really interested in this paticular debate, mainly because it's been hashed to death among the people I know so I'm kind of sick of talking about it, however, in answer to this:[quote name='James][font=franklin gothic medium]Note: I don't even necessarily think that the Obama plan - [B]which I know little about[/B'] - is the right plan.[/font][/quote]This document isn't as specific as I'd like but it will at least give you an overview of what they want to accomplish with the health reform.

If you haven't read this yet, I highly recommend that you do. Not because I'm taking PETA's side or anything, but because the whole thing is so over the top, it makes me laugh, a lot. [URL="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/08/07/peta-unhappy-meals-targeting-kids/"][U]PETA Unhappy Meals Targeting Kids[/U][/URL] And just in-case you didn't follow the link to the page by PETA: [URL="http://www.mccruelty.com/unhappyMeal.aspx"][U]Inside PETA's UnHappy Meal[/U][/URL] The slogan, I'm hating it, along with the graphic they've made for it just cracks me up. So what do you think? Just another case of PETA being nuts? Or what? =P

[quote name='chibi-master']I'm not quite sure if the shivers going up and down my back are because I have my windows open, or because you're so creepy...:animedepr[/quote]No, no, no. I said ODD. Not creepy. =P He's actually harmless.

Just a little more on this. =P [URL="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8188201.stm"][U]Hackers hit Twitter and Facebook[/U][/URL]

I have one thing that bugs me a lot. When someone listens to the same song, again and again, for HOURS. It wouldn't bother me if they didn't have the volume up loud enough for me to hear it too. That honestly has me wanting to toss people out the window, five stories up. I don't care if you like a song [I]that[/I] much. Get some damn headphones.

[quote name='chibi-master'].........:o I was just thinking...that statement came out of Allamorph's head..... Whoa.[/quote]chibi, if that really surprises you... o_O Lets just say you have no idea how[I] odd[/I] Allamorph can be at times. =P

Personally I think it's fine. However, only if the people involved and others know it's just joking around. It sounds like this girl either doesn't know you well enough to know you weren't serious (or were you?) or you were going a little overboard. Fun or not, it's not worth hurting someone's feelings over and I'd definitely talk to the girl to clear it up. Even if you and the others are fine with it, she may be uncomfortable with it. Though I imagine that's the case since she got upset.

Oh and just for laughs: [IMG]http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/1499/realfollower.jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=JCBaggee][color=darkred][size=1]So, Twitter is down and has been for a while, as they defend against a denial of service attack. I haven't posted on OB in a while, but came to post this because I've got one burning question: holy crap, what exactly did we do before Twitter? The Internet feels kinda empty right now :\ --Christopher[/color][/size][/QUOTE]I would have never noticed since I don't use the service. I just do what I always do, school, work, games, browse other sites, etc.

[quote name='Sangome][size="1"']...SO KOREY, WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO OTAKU JEOPARDY? :D[/size][/quote]He's posting in Gavin's area. And we all know how LAZY Gavin is. It looks like the condition is contagious. =P

[QUOTE=chibi-master]Getting antsy about high school I am...:animedepr Also, patience is the only frail thing that is keeping me from strangling my demanding sister... I mean, I get that she's unable to do a lot of stuff thanks to her cast and I have to help her, but she doesn't need to act like she owns my soul...:animeangr[/QUOTE]How can you be sure that she doesn't actually own your soul? :whoops:

[quote name='Allamorph][FONT=Arial'](Actually I don't consider anything a "swear word". But that's just me being difficult. As Usual.)[/FONT][/quote]I'd wonder if you were sick if you didn't say something like that. =P

[quote name='Gavin][SIZE="1"']If you ever hear me speak Rach you'll know that I have no issues in regard to swearing, at the end of the day they're just words, it's the intent behind them that determines how offensive they are. In the case I would say that rather than intended to genuinely offend, it's just Cobain's way of trying to warn people against following his example. Of course maybe I'm wrong, but that's just how I see it.[/SIZE][/quote]That's why I'm not bothered by it. The actual intent is the key. I honestly don't swear much myself, but unless someone is trying to be offensive, I don't really care if others do. If that makes sense. Around here though, where it's highly religious, that kind of thing, I'd be surprised if any place would even honor a request to include something like that on a memorial marker. I just don't see it happening here. At all.

[QUOTE=Allamorph][FONT=Arial].....Conrad still talks now and again? [I]*shot*[/I][/FONT][/QUOTE]If it had been him, I would have been laughing hard enough to pass out on the spot. Which is a shame, since that would have been terribly amusing. Heh. Oh and I'm making cookies for some reason. Only one more pan to finish baking and I'll be done.

But what about having those swear words on actual gravestones? You haven't answered the question yet, unless that's your way of saying you are fine with it in any context. So... which is it? =P

[quote name='chibi-master'] who has trouble sleeping away from home? I hear a lot about people who do. But if I want to sleep, I drop like a rock wherever I am.[/quote]So long as I have a decently comfortable bed to sleep on, it doesn't matter if I'm at home or not. I just carry a set of ear plugs with me when I travel. I've found that simply shutting out unfamiliar noise is all it takes for me to fall asleep.

I'd love to see what you posted Gavin, but at the moment, it's not working. =P On another note, I'm still laughing at the guy who lost his images. :D

If you're not familiar with this then take a moment to read the article here on it: [URL="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32282920/ns/entertainment-celebrities/"][U]F-word in Cobain quote sparks controversy[/U][/URL] Basically the whole fuss is over this part of the article here:[quote][FONT="Arial"]Aberdeen city officials are upset about the quote that says, "Drugs are bad for you. They will f--- you up." The marker contains the full F-word.[/FONT][/quote]Now I kind of do consider swearing in bad taste, however, at the same time I can see why they used it. It is rather accurate after all. So the question I'm curious about is this: What are your thoughts on allowing profanity on grave markers? Yes or no and why? Personally I'd just leave it off, but that's just me. I'm not offended that they included it for this person. Though I can kind of see why they're upset.

[quote name='silpheedpilot][SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Basically, like a cell phone, these things can be done at a stop but rarely are. Let's face it. Most people, maybe not you upstart citizens, take driving for granted and/or are in a hurry and/or, like me, just plain don't care.[/COLOR'][/SIZE][/quote]This is true, most people always assume that they are fine doing it and that only the other person sucks. It's easy for me to avoid since I share a car with other siblings and use our light rail system for everything else. So yeah, I'm guilty of doing all of that when I'm using that. But I'm not driving so to speak, so I don't quite see that in the same light. Also, back in 2006, some idiot doing this kind of crap, ran a red light and wrecked the car my friends and I were in. I got a broken leg and multiple surgeries to correct it as a result. So sure I'm going to say it's dumber than hell, because I got to pay the price for someone else's stupidity.

Not really, but with finals coming up next week, I was thinking how nice it is that I'm not so busy that I need to forgo sleep in favor of getting ready for tests. What about the rest of you though? How long can you go without sleep? What is your record? I've had a few times where I went almost three days without getting any sleep. It's something I'd rather not repeat. o_O In my case it was related to school, for the rest of you, what was the reason you ended up staying awake? Was it for a party or some other reason?

I had some guy I know decide to rant to me, over AIM, about how imageshack removed all of his 'porn' images. He was really upset since his computer crashed so he no longer has them on his hard drive. And yet all I could do was laugh my butt off over it. He was not amused. Which just made me laugh even more. :D
