Grrrr, searched through the whole thread without finding my name once. Must... raise... post count. My favorite would be Goddess (unfortunatly she left us :( ). She had a habit of being painfully correct on every thyread she posted, making it impossible to argue with her. She'd make a good dictator. and she actually cared enough to pm me when she left with flattering comments and a sad message of her departure. Hmm... I could list a lot of OT'ers who are fun to be around. I could list a load of people who I admire who probably never heard of me. What I find annoying about threads like these is that it brings down the little guy. You know, the guy with the 200 post count who's only been on OT for a few months and may be a really great person but no one seems to notice them, while those who have been around tif since the dawn of time are listed in every other post. Nevertheless, these threads are fun because of all the people who will comb every page searching for their name and will not find complete happiness until their name is mentioned and try to list other people as their favorite to flatter them and in return get their name mentioned. Its these peoples miserable endeavors that drive these threads. I'm one of those people.

Like most kids, when I was little I'd always consider running away because of getting grounded. never went through with it though, thankfully. I probably can't post other thoughts I've had for the sake of your sanity.

Whether he's stalling or not, it seems like a reasonable excuse to not be killed by lethal injection. There may be trouble finding his veins, the medicine might be weaker on his large body, etc. There are other ways to kill him though, right?

Love the show, but never get a chance to watch it. any show that anime fans thinks is a disgrace and combines fantasy and humor in it it a good show for me. I still don't exactly know who's who (Xuko's the bad-guy-turned-good right?) except for Aang, who's pretty obvious to tell apart from everyone else.

^seeing jamie covered in gold wearing gold undies scarred me for life. quite funny though. I love big explosions (who doesn't?). I think the water heater one was my favorite. damn, that thing went far. hit the ground like 30 seconds after it exploded. Then there's the cement truck which I thought was freaking amazing. and like all nerds who watch mythbusters, I'm willing to do Kari. I'm surprised Tory hasn't offered it yet. or has he... ;) . Then there's Adam getting an anal probe and having his eyebrow burned off. I think the most surprising conclusion of any tested myth would be the bull in a china shop one. They freaking walked AROUND the shelves.

Thats probably the worst way to die I've ever heard about (well besides having your death laughed at by the darwin awards). Out of all the ways to get killed, to be beheaded and stabbed by a man at random, on a bus, in front of people who are now scarred for life... I'm so glad his family wasn't watching this happen to them. that would be pretty much all the visual agony one could take. So much for "only in america" huh?

the egg came first. the riddle never specified which egg. dinosaurs laid eggs long before Al Gore invented the chicken.

Hmm... I'm usually a good boy, don't think I've ever been caught doing anything. Oh but my friend decided to one day stand on the desks and dance while the teacher was out of the room. My other friend recorded it and put it on youtube. My teacher likes to patrol youtube, and she somehow knows most of our screen names. so she found the video. luckily he didn't get in any trouble, the teacher just lectured him. I'm not sure what scares me more in this story: my friend who had the balls to do the act in a private school where punishment can be deadly, my friend with the balls to record it and youtube it, or the kid with the balls to tell all our screen names to our teacher so she can patrol our videos. My teacher is a pretty good stalker though, she knows how to get all our myspaces even if they're set on private. something about looping. so she likes to find our myspaces with bad images in it and threatend to tell our parents if we don't edit it in 3 days. my friend got busted for having images of himself giving the finger several times on his myspace, and his parents found out via the teacher. This is why I don't have a myspace. Of course there's the many many times some of my friends were caught cheating because they failed to do an assignment. what surprises me is how many people do it and don't get caught. you should see the number of cheaters in my school.

Yeah I've had dreams that I fall off a bridge and stuff and jerk awake in the middle of falling. feels rather awkward. I've also had violent dreams of murdering people I love for no reason, of people near me being killed, etc. Perfectly natural to have violent, obscure, and scary dreams once in a while.

A lot of people here are saying "you'd get used to it" Wrong. Our media has done enough to the point where nudity cannot go as "oh he just decided to not wear clothes today. lets go have lunch". Nudity will, for at least a few decades, go as either disgusting or erotic. it will not be socially acceptable for ages, no matter how natural it is. In ancient times and even today in some tribes walking nude is normal, so it is possible that eventually people will see it as normal. But today, media and our society has looked down on nudity as a dirty practice and will continue to rebel. That being said, I still don't see why some people think nudity is necessary. and as some people above said, people who chose to wear clothes may feel left out. Obese, excessively hairy, and people who consider their bodies to be outside the "sexy body" category of our society would feel unhappy, and people who consider nudity to be bad and voice their opinions through wearing clothes will eventually be made fun of, called prudes, etc. Besides, whats the problem with wearing clothes?

Miley Cyrus "seven things". First she talks about the 7 things she hated about some guy, then suddenly she switches modes entirely and talks about the 7 things she likes about him. I guess its because she didn't want her fans to think she genuinely hates someone.

I reject your reality and substitute my own! Mythbusters is one of my favorite shows on TV. Combines fascinating and educating science with the fun explosions and humor. Its every nerdy teenage boy's dream show :ugeek: now all it needs is for Kari to strip down in the middle of the show. oh wait, that already happened, didn't it? That covered in silver myth or something? I love the discovery channel.

The internet. for losers like me with nothing better to do on friday nights, it's quite useful to communicate with other losers with nothing to do on OT :lol: .

When I looked at the thread title, I thought it was another menstruation thread :-# Anyway, when I first learned to ride a two wheeled bike I had numerous cuts and bruises on my legs from falling and getting scraped by the bike that I never noticed. One time playing basketball I broke my finger getting a rebound. Didn't know until we took a break 20 mins later. I just felt a mild pain on the court as if I had hit it on something, but nothing major. Its amazing how papercuts can hurt more than other injuries just because you can see right away when it happened rather than 20 minutes later.

Meh, gardening's for people with patience and sanity. the only plant I've ever grown in the past decade was a bean plant for 5th grade science class. and it died in a week anyway.

Damn. I hate the fact that I joined tif 1-2 years after all the good nostalgic moments happened. I feel soo in the dark here. Kinda like a white guy walking through a flea market. Except this flea market is full of nostalgia and friends long gone that I've never met. Makes me feel so out of place. :x Welcome back anyways I guess. as for the whole nostalgia thing, I get that a lot when I find a youtube video of things I remember when I was little, like old tv shows. I practically cried when I saw the Muppet's Kokomo video yesterday after nearly 10 years. and that thread about 90s cartoons is one of my favorites of all time because of all the old tv shows I used to watch as a kid. Thank god for youtube, where I can relive the best tv shows of all time.

I have respect for anyone with the balls to do stunts on bikes or skateboards or whatever. As for me, my most amazing bike trick was getting rid of the training wheels :

Today I got my internet back after 3 days of no internet. A squirrel had eaten through one of the cables outside. Damn squirrels. I was never so bored for 3 days straight in my entire life. Finally I got back on today and scrambled through all the sites I usually check daily to see whats new. Now I realize how much I take the interwebs for granted.

Meh, I don't see much wrong with this. Sure, its body fluids. But so what? The painting looks pretty good, the idea is the cycle of a body function in a woman. its funny, the art world tolerates pictures of naked people, often people engaging in intercourse, but then they see an image of a natural body function and vomit uncontrollably. And then there's you guys, many of whom frequently visited the "mature content" tagged threads that are now gone, laughing at the disgusting stories and engaging in discussions that cross all lines of sanity, and then gag at the thought of how this picture was created. #-o

*sigh* another thread that tries to find glitches in universal logic. I hope it's satirical. well if it isn't, here goes... As the Mythbusters have found, toast doesn't always butter side down. The most common reason it does so is because when you spread it, you press an indent in the center of the toast. thus when it drops off the side of a table, the indent causes it to flip over. and because when toast drops off a table, it normally flips once and lands upside down. there's no crazy theoretical paradox here. Just physics. Although it would be funny to see what happened anyway.

I see nothing wrong with their marriage rituals. The parents didn't wed her off for true love or for sex, they did it because they trusted that the girl would be in the care of the husband's family. Kind of like an obscure adoption ritual. Just because it seems odd to countries where marriage has a different definition, doesn't mean its immoral. I'm sure some countries are laughing that we condone gay marriage or marriage purely for sex, or marriages lasting for less than a year.

My friend pranked his sister by taking a screenshot of the "this page cannot be displayed" message when you mistype a web address. then he set the image as his background. Both his sister and his dad fell for it, trying madly to click and click th exit the fake browser :

Aren't jurors supposed to keep info on the trials strictly to themselves? :-# thank goodness i'm only 14. I still got a while to go before my jury summon :thumbsup:

Statistics (and common sense) say that guns are used more often for suicides and homicides than for self defence. More lives are being taken then saved. In fact I'm pretty sure a majority of the time weapons are used for self defence are in convenient stores and other commonly robbed places. Seriously, in the past year I think I've only heard of 2-3 cases of a theif or murderer being injured in someone else's home because the homeowner had a gun handy. Besides, if you're held at gunpoint by a theif in your livingroom and your gun is locked up in your bedroom, I don't see how owning a gun in this case helps anything. Most sane law-breakers are not going to break into your home and allow you to move to your bedroom so you may grab a gun to fight back. Besides, what do guns protect you from? Bad people... weilding GUNS? So guns basically fight guns (unless you're nice and lucky and the bad guy has a knife instead and you happen to be at a safe distance whereby you can shoot him without him hitting you first). If guns were off the street completely, then there would hardly ever be a murder unless the murderer uses more creative or risky ways to kill you. and as another person said, most gun crimes are done with illegal guns anyway.

actually, I find that technology is the cause of about 9 out of 10 of my sleepless nights. Back when I used to play Runescape whenever I got the chance, I found that if I played before bed it would take me an extra hour or so than usual to fall asleep. My mind is still running with thoughts of what I was playing. So as an experiment I stopped playing rs before bed and instead watched some good old reality shows and read a book before bed and found I slept a lot easier. however, if I watched action movies then my mind would start unintentionally filling with actiony thoughts I couldn't control and I lost sleep. I think your father has the right idea, but his restrictions are too extreme. Maybe a rule "no computers or videogames before bed" would be a lot better for you than depriving you of everything you enjoy.
