chibi-master Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 [quote name='Gavin'][SIZE=1]Also if this post counter for this thread is accurate, chibi is had thrice roughly thrice the number of random thoughts compared to the rest of us. Only double Al's though which makes sense I suppose.[/SIZE][/QUOTE] Rach pointed that out a few pages ago, silly gosling! YET ANOTHER RANDOM THOUGHT: I like the word "quirk". It is a lovely way to use a 'q', I believe! Not to mention I feel a special attachment to the word, as I have many quirks! Literally 25% of my science class was out sick today. Apparently, roughly half of the student body is sick with some sort of flu bug. That means that every teacher is going crazy with the Lysol wipes, even though they are not school issued! 'Tis a rarity, teachers demanding the usage of their precious wipes! I am frightened... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachmaninoff Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 [FONT="Trebuchet MS"]^You're probably correct. =P Though I haven't watched it so I wouldn't know. I did watch some stuff on one of those cop shows where they have footage from real events. One of them was some guy in a truck driving like he was drunk and wouldn't get out even when the truck finally stopped. Turns out that not only was he drunk, but other than some boots, he was completely naked. [/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, god forbid that citizens don't have time to read through thousands of pages of primary sources to understand what's going on in the world. Yeah, really, darn Congress for not making their bill-making process easy for the common person to read/understand. And yes, please fire back at me about how ****** Fox news is and how CNN gets wrapped up in sensationalism. I believe it is perfectly fine for someone to form an opinion over political events by reading multiple sources they respect. Blast me if you want, but I like [b]The Economist[/b] and the [b]New York Times[/b]. I tend to agree with what their editorials say and how they present their information. So excuse me for scoffing over the fact that you're getting annoyed at Congress for making their bill too long. Maybe you should try sitting in there getting **** done sometime. And Aaryana, until you start getting all your news from primary sources, don't scorn news sources, or don't laugh at me for suggesting that people use news sources to inform themselves. The fact is, even if you could use all primary sources to inform yourself, you'd never do it due to time and resources. If you're going to dismiss all news sources as illegitimate, you might as well stop reading any article or newspaper. [/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pooperson Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 [COLOR="RoyalBlue"][SIZE="1"]My roommate & I were up late last night talking about scary movies until we were too scared to go to sleep. She was telling me about how she wanted to see Paranormal Activity but that she wouldn't because it would scare her too much. But then tonight she told me that her fiancee wants to see it with a group of people but that she wouldn't unless I came with her. So yeah, we're going on Saturday, & I'm nervous. I love scary movies, but omg they... scare me. Whodathunkit, right? & also lol to what was said about news stations.[/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibi-master Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 ...Tense atmosphere much? Geez, calm down. It's a freaking bill. People will read it or people will not. No need to get so defensive and snarky about how some people choose to have information presented to them(this applies to both parties). Although I may not know where I'm coming from... I have no interest in even reading so much as a SUMMARY of a bill. Psh. I'm moving to the U.K. first chance I get in my adult life! I'm tired of all the crappy political problems of the U.S.!

The Spectacular Professor Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 [FONT="Comic Sans MS"]So I've been watching [B]The Weekenders[/B] again lately. That show is great. It's like [B]How I Met Your Mother[/B], but kid-friendly. Such witty banter and all the main characters are twelve. Also, the best part about Al baiting people is when they bite. [quote name='chibi-master']I'm moving to the U.K. first chance I get in my adult life! I'm tired of all the crappy political problems of the U.S.![/quote] Politics are universal. You may be able to escape certain stupid problems, but that doesn't mean more won't pop up in their place. About the only place you can escape political issues is the Moon.

Just sit back and watch the show of people rising to the bait. =P After all, god forbid Congress actually put something out for a week or two so the common person can have it long enough to use it to verify what those 'legit' news sources post. You know, to make sure they understand the issue better. But it's more fun to rush it so people don't have time to find the problems and object until it's too late and thus a royal pain in the *** to undo. That governmental mentality just makes me laugh.
