Queen Asuka

[color=hotpink][size=1]Wow, this thread has actually pissed me off to an extent. I'm from Georgia. The South. I've lived here all my life. I always hated the people who wore the Confederate flag as a symbol of "White Supremacy," but seriously, it is a part of HISTORY. You can't just go and erase that. And all of these comments about the South, let me let you in on a bit of history: The people who first populated the South were PRISONERS from England. They took people who couldn't pay their taxes in England, stuck them over here in the Southern states and said "Okay, see what you can do with this place." Also, the North was Industrial whereas the South was agricultural. Because of that, the South needed slaves to work the fields. The North didn't need slaves. So why would they condone such a horrid thing? I bet if the North was as agricultural as the South, it would have been a completely different story. I am not racist, and I am sorry that slavery happened. But you all just need to let it go. It happened over 200 years ago. And besides, the slaves were sold to the Americans by other Africans. It's not like we went over there and captured them ourselves. I feel so angry sometimes because people try to make me feel as if I OWE someone something because I'm a white southerner. Look, the only people owning slaves were the RICH white southerners, not the poor ones. It was such a small majority. Okay, I totally got off subject, but I was trying to make a point about the South. It was DIFFERENT from the North. The North is where all the power stood anyway. No wonder they had such a huge advantage over the South. It's just a FLAG! And it's a WHOLE lot better looking than that bull**** flag that the state of Georgia is flying now. *Sighs*[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by lea2385 [/i] [B]well, i am not to sure of that... i know somone who has been taking care of their younger (5 of them) since they were 10. they only have one parent, and i think they are pretty mature (they are mellow when people argue with them, stuff like that) but, from what i get, they dont like themselves....they have really low self esteem so, that means they are immature? [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]It means there are different levels of maturity. And just because someone can handle responsibility doesn't exactly make them mature or no. It just depends on how you look at it. And just because she is MELLOW doesn't make her mature. Which leads me to another point....:[/color][/size] [quote][i]Originally posted by SailorStar[/i] [b]Actually, yes, there is. I am. I mean. I dont go all giggly when i hear the word kiss. i mean, really. some boy who is my best firned ever, told me he likes me. guess what i said. cool. adn i like him back. he desnt want to go out, becuase he's afraid to get his feelings hurt. the last girl he went out with, he was with for a while, then she moved, and they broke up. i mean. im giggly when it comes to boys, but when its otehrs that need help, im probably the clamest person you will find. im dofferent from a lot of teens. i eat maybe, maybe one meal a day, then im not hungry for the rest of the day.[/b][/quote] [color=hotpink][size=1]Just because someone gets giggly or happy over something, they are automatically immature?! Let me tell you something, I love to call my mother MOMMY, I have thing for fluffy stuffed animals, and hey, I get giggly when I think about kissing my boyfriend. I'm 18 freaking years old. Does that mean I'm immature? Seriously... Yes, you can be there for someone, and maybe you are mature for your age, but I think you still have a lot of growing up to do. And eat. For Christ's sake, that is not healthy.[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Dan Rugh [/i] [B][spoiler]Nuriko dresses as a girl for a reason, though[/spoiler] [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]He does that because [spoiler]he's gay. And he's in love with Hotohori. He comes clean later and you find his motivations for being that way. It's pretty sweet actually...*Sighs* Then he has to go and get killed...[/spoiler] Actually, I have seen MANY different styles of anime and usually I don't have a hard time telling the guys from the girls. But every now and then, there's a beautiful male that slips by me. Nuriko, for example. *laughs* Ah, man, I love Fushigi Yugi.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I love the picture. It's very adorable. I love to see pictures of anime people sleeping.[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by lea2385 [/i] [B]well, i think your emotional maturity is different from your self esteem..... your self esteem is how you view yourself, i dont think maturity plays much of a part in that, if at all..... [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]You have no idea how much the two are interelated. People who are emotionally mature generally view themselves in a positive way, accept their faults, love themselves, etc. Those who don't, tend to be the immature types who need people to stroke their ego and rely too much on what others say. If someone calls them out, they get upset. It is a problem that I have been struggling with. For the most part I can say that I'm over it. I do love myself. I know that I am beautiful. Inside and out.[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by SailorStar [/i] [B]Well, i am mature emotionally. but not overall. i have to be one of the most immature 12 year old you have ever met. [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]You just completely contradicted yourself. And I will never believe you are emotionally mature at the ripe young age of TWELVE. My youngest sister is 12. There is just NO WAY. I remember when I was twelve. I thought I was SO IN LOVE with this guy I grew up with. Yeah, right. I had no idea, but I sure thought that I did. I think that I must be emotionally mature if I'm living on my own, spending practically no time with any people, and for the most part, sucking it up and dealing with it. I am hoping to meet more people, but as of now, school is getting the most of me. And I would rather be starting a family than going to college. It feels like a big waste of time and money to me.[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Drix D'Zanth [/i] [B]Can I just develop this topic into people's favorite drinks? Obviously, this will refer to people who can legally drink , or handle drinking maturely. [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]*Laughs long and hard* And that's about what, five people on the OtakuBoards in all? Even people who are old enough to drink abuse it. One reason I hate it so much is because I see what happens to my parents when they drink. Every weekend, they get some beer, and drink until they have a "buzz." But they are so ****ing annoying and I want to do everything in my power to get away from them. They act so immature and childish and you can't hold a decent conversation with them. Yeah, it's only a buzz. They aren't drunk. And they still act like ****ing idiots.[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by BabyGirl [/i] [B][color=deeppink]If your friends are only 14 then it may be an experimental stage they're in right now. As long as it doesn't become a habit or lead to an alcohol addiction problem, let them find [i]out[/i] what it's like to be wasted. Who knows, maybe they won't like it and will stop drinking entirely...it's possible that that could happen :)[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]I agree that it seems as thought 14/15 is the age when people experiment with it. I had a group of friends who used to do it all the time, every weekend. They would get completely smashed and then brag about which guys they did WHAT with. Yes, that WHAT. One of them keeps doing it. The other one realized how stupid it was and she pretty much doesn't do anymore. Another one, that just came to college with me, goes out and parties every night. She's not going to last long if she doesn't stop.[/color][/size] [quote][i]Originally posted by Drix D'Zanth[/i] [b]Tell your friends they need to get a hobby. Call me an ***, but drinking is really overrated nowadays. Hanging out with friends who like to waste time drinking is probably more of a waste of time than the act itself. Spare yourself the misery, find new friends.[/b][/quote] [color=hotpink][size=1] I pretty much agree with you there. People only seem to do it because it's what the "cool kids" do. And then they brag about the awful things they do. People nowadays seem to have no shame. And that's a shame...*sighs*[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Shy [/i] [B][size=1]These designs are somewhat faithful to the original comics they were inspired by, but were based on the new "Ultimate Spider-Man" comic book series. In fact, Brian Michael Bendis, a writer for the comic, was a consultant for several of the episodes. Some of the designs look great, (The Lizard being a prime example) but the main problem is that characters designs are not the most important part of animation, [i]the animation is.[/i] For some reason TV is unable to do a CGI series with realistic movements, and everyone ends up walking around like a bunch of robots. This makes the action very uninteresting and blocky, which is a major problem for an action show like this. It is even worse when the characters try to be intimate, like in a scene where [spoiler]Mary Jane and Peter kiss.[/spoiler] There is no depth to their movements, and it looks like one of those animated films people make with their action figures of Legos.[/size] [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]I guess that's why I like it: because it's so different. Sure, there are lots of flaws, but it sounds to me as though you are just nitpicking. I like they way they move around. It almost reminds me of playing with Barbies...I don't know... And I don't like the way MJ acts like she has no guts. She just submits herself all the time. I hate that. But she is still my favorite character and I still adore her. [/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I started a thread about this about two years ago and it became a very hot topic. Obviously, I'm against it. And even more so now that I'm in college. People will find any sort of excuse to get drunk. They all say they drink to "let loose." Well, I can let loose without being drunk. And I must say, I feel a ton better and remember a whole lot more than they do afterwards. :)[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I was just wondering if anyone was obsessed with this new animated series as I am? I first heard of it/watched it when I was on vacation in Oregon. My Uncle Ace is the biggest Spiderman fan in the universe and records it so he can watch it. So that's how I got to see it. I was mesmerized. I love the character designs and how they are so contemporary. I haven't seen alot of episodes, but I think that it takes place after the movie? I'm not too sure. I am so glad I have cable now. Even though I missed it every weekend until now. And still tonight I missed the first episode...*sighs* So yeah...anyone watch it besides me?[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]I love Buffy. Especially the episodes where she was in love with Angel. I'm such a sucker for romance... Your banner is pretty. (Both of them). I like the one posted in here the best. I like stuff like that...[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]You know, Return of the Jedi is my favorite one...isn't that odd? Of course, I love them all to death. I really don't like the prequels, though...[/color][/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Lady Macaiodh [/i] [B][COLOR=darkblue][size=1]You sounded like (and no offense by this whatsoever) an innocent little girl just waiting to be corrupted. You sneaky thing. You're bad inside... and you know it.[/size][/COLOR] [/B][/QUOTE] [color=hotpink][size=1]You know me all too well, Deb. And you have a cute voice. I love the way you laugh. And Ken has a nice voice. Sounds much older than he is. Piro's voice is pretty, too.[/color][/size]

[color=hotpink][size=1]Well, actually, as much as I love Star Wars, I have to tell you that your post is in the wrong forum. *Laughs* That's what Music, Movies, and TV is for, silly.[/color][/size]
