Things that annoy the HELL out of you.
Okay, he's annoying me enough that I'll just block him. How do you block again? I did it once and now I forget.

Food
My dad doesn't buy anything not on sale. Unless I make him. In other news, found an old AC unit so the living room is cool. Outside it is 100 degrees. And OMAHA STEAKS. Got a shipment from my dads aunt, she sends one every few months. So delicious.

Battlefield Discussion Thread
Ugh... I don't know if I'll like it. The graphics are almost... too good? It feels too real, where BFBC2 was a little cartoonish. Still, graphicgasm.

Lolol, drug habits aren't good. If anything you should feel good that you can resist temptation.

One in Seven Americans are [sic] Poor.
My opinion is that just because there are multiple injustices in the world doesn't mean we should only address the worst. Yet you have to start somewhere, attempting to fix everything at once is a recipe for disaster. (ZING RUNESCAPE QUEST NAME) omg no roonskaep in mah off topic dis r nt place foar dat geddit outttttt end annoying OT elitism. On topic, that is discussed as well in the book. People try to "solve poverty". That can't be done. The real solution is actually to solve the small things - diarrhea for example, or deworming people.

Drinking/Drugs
I don't get that. Why is it so bad to enjoy drugs alone? To each their own.

Touching, smelling, buying, or looking at aluminum foil causes IRREVERSIBLE ALZHEIMERS DISEASE FOREVER AND YOU WILL DIE SLOWLY AND HORRIBLY. The banks were intentionally trying to ruin the US economy and SCREW YOU ALL OVER AS HARD AS POSSIBLE. Marijuana causes CANCER. etc.

One in Seven Americans are [sic] Poor.
I know I'm a bit late, but having cable TV does NOT mean you don't live in poverty. Let me direct your attention to this http://www.amazon.com/Poor-Economics-Radical-Rethinking-Poverty/dp/1586487981 Poor Economics: A Radical Rethinking of the Way to Fight Global Poverty. I read this book and it was absolutely eye opening. An extremely simplified version of it is: What you think the poor would do with extra money is utterly false. People without enough food who acquire extra money will NOT buy more food or even better food. They will buy less of worse food, and unnecessary things like TV and cellphones. But I simply cannot explain it in one post. Look for a torrent if you don't want to buy, but I consider a must read for anyone even slightly interested in how to actually start addressing the problems of poverty and poorness.

Also known as K2 or "fake weed". Either he used way too much or was really hamming up it.

Cyberbullying
I still just don't understand why people don't use the block function or get help. Or get over it, which I know isn't easy. Of course it's hard to make it stop, but is it really easier to kill oneself?

Cyberbullying
I'm seeing a pattern here. If someone is not like you, doesn't agree with you, or can't do what you do, they are automatically wrong/weak/dumb. Interesting. Nope. But if they care so little about their own life that they're willing to just kill themselves instead of getting help, I don't feel sorry for them. Maybe that's douchey or whatever, but that's how it is.

Cyberbullying
I get the difference between a minor case and one like that. I can't say I've experience suicide due to cyberbullying, but I can say that I was bullied for much of my life. I had few friends at a time, and I was beat up at least two or three times. A lot of people still don't like me and make no qualms about saying so. But now I have friends and I am aware of the social consequences of actions. I stood up in eighth grade to a bully and punched him in the face. That summer, I stood up to someone else (who had wronged me multiple times) driving him to tears just with words. I know what it's like to be bullied and not have friends. But I didn't commit suicide. I manned up, got physical once or twice, and showed people I was not to be messed with. If people are too... I don't know. Weak? Nice? Too something to do that, then I'm not going to feel sorry for them when they go to the extreme.

Cyberbullying
Of course it's wrong. Of course people who do it are jerks and lowlifes. But killing yourself over it means you're letting them win, and that you don't care enough about your own life to solve the problem.

Cyberbullying
I'd prefer people weren't, I'm just not going to cry over people who let it get to them.

Cyberbullying
Taken from the first site on a Google search of "cyberbullying". Honestly, it sounds like dedicated trolling to me. I can't help but feel that the people who have killed themselves over somebody saying hurtful things to them anonymously shouldn't have been on the Internet in the first place. This. If you can't handle the heat, get out of the kitchen. The video explains it well. Warning: NSFW language. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_ZiRT8Nwkk

Cyberbullying
Unless you live in a truly terrible neighbourhood, the scale of bullying you see in schools is way more than people should have to handle in real life when at the workplace. Nobody needs it. Should is the key word here.

That is [bleep]ing disgusting, are you serious? Yep. Breaking societal standards 24/7, that's me.

Cyberbullying
Well, if a parent knew about it and didn't try to stop it, then they have no right to complain about laws and how police/schools don't care after their child is dead at their own hands. Might seem harsh/cynical, but that's just hypocrisy.

I've asked people online if they're black and it immediately turns into a [cabbage]storm.
