"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Most of us can't even understand our girlfriends.Just be glad you've exceeded that level.Like I'm a sarcastic guy,I use it at least once in a conversation with people I don't respect.Yet,I can't detect her sarcasm,its just how it is,I guess.

Iraq war, your opinions?
No,no no.Thats missing the point entirely.Even military targets without solid evidence is wrong.Some countries have forced enlistment.So does that automatically make them enemies?You could kill a lot of people who did nothing wrong except be born at the wrong time,just to kill 4-5 people who kill your guys. Deaths are deaths mate.Its not like NYC was flattened by 911 :roll:

Iraq war, your opinions?
The most commonly used bomb in modern warfare is of a cluster bomb type. Basically it detonates about 200-400 feet over the ground, throwing smaller pieces of explosives into buildings / the ground while showering the area in molten metal. These bombs can cover the distance of 3 football fields in one explosion. Not only will next door be harmed in the bombing, but most likely the majority of the block. Cluster bombs also leave a huge amount of undetonated explosives left over, these explosives often look like tinned food so the hunger ridden Iraqi citizens are attracted to them, when they try to open them they explode, often resulting in serious injury (limbs being blown off) or death. But in that particular bombing they used "surgical" meaning they only took out certain bombings. To me America's being a bit of a bully,like what happened with North Korea.Something like "either shut down your plants or be bombed",right?If thats not the case I'm sure I could find another example,yeah.

Beijing 2008
I don't really know much about that,but I do know why they picked the date it starts on.8/8/08,the word for eight sounds like the word for fortune,so that makes it an auspicious date. But other than that,screw the Olympics lets talk about the YOG.

Camp Help
^Also,I once made them climb a tall pole to get the flag (they had to just take the cloth).And we didn't have two teams trying to get each others' flag,we had three teams trying to get the same flag.The flag if the person carrying it is shot,goes to whoever gets it first,regardless of shooter/shot.(Though the shot is disquallified for 30 seconds as a penalty)

Iraq war, your opinions?
I did some thinking in school today...I'm going to return to the source of the argument:bombing Iran. The reason U.S. soldiers were in Iraq,according to Wikipedia was there were supposed to be WMDs there.Understandable up to the point where they accused them of harboring Saddam,and began "bombing".No doubt am I in of Operation Shock and Awe,but would people working unwillingly (just to put food on the table) in the buildings die?Wouldn't buildings next door be even slightly affected? Now I've not exactly been following modern wars carefully,but I seriously doubt that there is a solid reason for U.S. guys to be in Iran.And I doubt even more Iranians would kill your guys without reason,its just against the Qaran.The most likely reason I would kill troops?You're killing mine.Therefore if you can bomb Iran for a few of their guys killing yours Iran can sure as hell bomb you back. And llamster,people in Hiroshima are still affected by the bombs to this day.More babies are born with disablities and other stuff wrong/missing in Hiroshima after the bomb.I always pictured being physically unable worse than being dead.

Kardish-Darkness Falls(Ulitharid(See NPC))
Okay,you didn't miss much but unfortunately you have no assignments as to sieging yet.Considering your character's ability you'd more want to be in charge of a full out battle,so I'll schedule one. Currently I'm working on a couple of Eaters races,so I probably will be a little busy for a while.

Iraq war, your opinions?
Quoting Wikipedia,here's some ways in history the bombings can be expressed/ [edit] Historical applications According to its original theorists, Shock and Awe renders an adversary unwilling to resist through overwhelming displays of power. Ullman cites the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as an example of "shock and awe.".Ullman and Wade argue that there have been military applications that fall within some of the concepts of shock and awe. They enumerate nine examples: Overwhelming force: The "application of massive or overwhelming force" to "disarm, incapacitate, or render the enemy militarily impotent with as few causualities to ourselves and to noncombatants as possible." -So that they noncombatants will be alive to say how Americans spared their lives,probably increasing popularity. Hiroshima and Nagasaki: The establishment of shock and awe through "instant, nearly incomprehensible levels of massive destruction directed at influencing society writ large, meaning its leadership and public, rather than targeting directly against military or strategic objectives even with relatively few numbers or systems." -No crap,Sherlock they weren't even after military means. Massive bombardment: Described as the "precise destructive power largely against military targets and related sectors over time." -Over time?The video I saw on Nat Geo wasn't that slow...It was pretty quick,according to journalists there,too. Blitzkrieg: The "intent was to apply precise, surgical amounts of tightly focused force to achieve maximum leverage but with total economies of scale." -So their economy should survive?I'm not too sure.Because didn't they take out most stuff important to economy? Sun Tzu: The "selective, instant decapitation of military or societal targets to achieve shock and awe." -Decapitation?Sounds violent! Haitian example: The "imposing shock and awe through a show of force and indeed through deception, misinformation, and disinformation." -Self-explanatory,right? The Roman legions: "Achieving shock and awe rests in the ability to deter and overpower an adversary through the adversarys perception and fear of his vulnerability and our own invincibility." -Yes!We are invincible!We have the Death Star!We have the Force!No,we just have lots of bombs Decay and default: "The imposition of societal breakdown over a lengthy period, but without the application of massive destruction." -Have you seen the inside of the bombed buildings?I'd call that massive destruction. Royal Canadian Mounted Police: The selective application of force emphasizing "standoff capabilities as opposed to forces in place" to attain military objectives. -What was the military objective here? As for Jack,I have nothing to say to you.I so want that facepalm back.

Turned away from university
I'm not so sure to be honest. I know these are only quotes and it's so easy to lie, but he was 'deeply ashamed' when he was arrested and vowed never to do that kind of thing again - which he hasn't, so far. He says he grew up 'surrounded by drugs and violence' and to be honest I think turning your life around because you have your heart set on something and are determined to go and get it is more of an achievement than getting four As... I grew up surrounded by failure,stupidity,smoking,gangs and that other things thats pretty bad.I'm more or less un-screwed up.

Iraq war, your opinions?
Found the name its Operation:Shock and Awe.Not the best way to gain publicity,but if we kill some of the Muslims its a bonus! :roll: Don't say any thing about not killing them,unless you beamed Spock down,and Spock beamed all the Muslims in the buildings out,beaming them back down peacefully after the bombings.

Iraq war, your opinions?
I was taking that surgical bombing in Iraq as a reference,and are they not still civilians?Unless they magically changed into unicorns and military bases the facts are you bombed civilians to end a war.Don't tell me you'd bomb America if Al Qaeda took over and your citizens were stuck within...

You can remove bad traits after time,but not in a year.The university is right in turing him down.It takes a minute to realise your wrongs,but it can take a lifetime to correct them,especially if you have a horringible attitude.

Everyone is a little bit racist.Its true

Iraq war, your opinions?
Jack I didn't know you were that ignorant.Wasn't it your people who bombed innocents in Hiroshima twice?Retaliation for Pearl Harbor?They killed your troops you kill their civilians.Brave [wagon]. Even if Americans did that thing they did in Iraq where they harmed no civilians they aren't making themselves any more popular. Apologies I'm sorry to say,do not help in any way.Sorry I cut out your balls,you can have mine if you want.

Some new sigs (c/c please) and Pixel WIP
I'm just going to do your WIP,kay?Because thats the one you can change the easiest,to my knowledge...His wings are a little small...Unless he's a bee he can't fly (Bees are supposedly unable to fly,due to wing span:body weight ratio or something).Unless he's a Chinese Dragon?But those don't have gold hoards =D

Why does everyone hate F2P?
Which one? hmmm...I forgot which act.scene.lines they were. I think it was when Cassius was "justifying" the assassination by saying how Caesar became "ambitious" and had become arrogant by scorning all the people he so-called "stepped on" to become the emperor of Rome. I loved that part.Followed up by Mark Antony's manipulation it was awesome.
