Bronies. Bronies everywhere...

Teacher's get next to no salary as it is, and obviously we need new materials to keep education worth getting. Trips and other special events are part of the culture of public schools, so it would be a sin to take funding from it. This leaves eliminating sports, or eliminating arts/music. Tough choice. This poll is a little bias due to the vast majority of us being ex-runescapers [see also: geeks]. I think they're equally important, as they both are forms of expression, socialization, and lead to no clear career path. If we HAVE to divert funds frmo one of the options, I say take equal parts out of both of these. I don't think we HAVE to do that though. Education should be priority number 1, followed by financial security, and then national security. That being said; the USA spends WAY too much money on a military that does little more than occupy other countries.

I'll take that as a resignation of your man, card. Thank you, and have a nice and frilly day

[garden tool] boy, a "think of the children!" post. Thanks for actually posting some content though e: You can't say [garden tool] on this site? What? Care to actually debunk his points? Not going to win any arguments with insults... No, I don't because of the part I quoted. It'll just result in running in circles. It wasn't an insult, his post WAS a "think of the children!" post. It's parents responsibility to monitor their kids, there are a hell of a lot worse things kids could do than smoke a little weed. How hypocritical of you to call me out on lack of content, and then not support your own side of the debate :P I have further points than just 'think of the children' [which is a perfectly legitimate argument, by the way] it just happens to be the point I feel the most strong about. Parent's are supposed to be responsible for their children, yes. I agree. But let's be honest for a second, and look at how the world actually functions instead of how it should function. Parent's are very uninvolved in a kid's life, between divorce [40% of all children of this current generation in the USA have separated parents], working multiple jobs to keep up with today's expensive world, and the internet...parents have very little say in how their kids turn out. Kids these days are mostly reared by Sales teams through use of the internet and TV. The problem in this lies in that they are taught vague morality, with no attachment to a physical representation of a human, with a compulsion to spend money. But before I sound like a paranoid nut ranting about advertisement... If marijuana were legalized, how long would it be before other drugs were legalized? Heroin was once used for medicinal purposes if I'm not mistaken. Obviously that got taken off the shelves pretty quick. What kind of catastrophe has to occur before we realize that being able to buy marijuana in a common shop was a mistake? And before you use the argument that marijuana is a plant, and heroin is a drug...the definition of a drug is a foreign substance that the body encounters resulting in a chemical reaction which then effects your state of being. Sounds like marijuana is in fact a drug, plant or not. Moreover, heroin is also a plant. Most commonly seen as poppy seeds on things like bagels, but yes, heroin -> one of the most addictive substances on the planet is both a plant product, and a drug. And don't go saying that you can't be addicted to marijuana. No, you can't get addicted to the substance itself, that much is true. But you can become psychologically dependent on the feeling it brings you, which is just as bad if not worse. EDIT: regulating it would be the best compromise I could come up with to the advocates of the 'legalize it' campaign, but honestly, alcohol is supposed to be 'regulated' and yet you see middle schooler's drunk off their rocker EVERY weekend

Oh joy, another condescending poster contributing nothing to the thread. -sigh- I'm lazy, not a troll. The way I see it, the benefits of legalizing it do not match the detriments. Yes, less people would be meaninglessly arrested, and jails would be less crowded. We could also tax the hell out of the legal version, to gain revenue off of the dope fiends. And I'm not saying that everyone who uses marijuana is a dope fiend, don't take that out of context. My point lies within the fact that if it were legal, it would then become a household item, as the way of alcohol. Instead of liquor cabinets in recreational rooms, there'd be 'weed gardens' in every window sill. This makes it very easy to access for people of all ages, including the children of all users [or owners]. The average age in which people admit to beginning drinking is estimated at 11 to 12 years old [sourceless quote, my apologies]. If marijuana were to become legal, the amount that would become visible, and obtainable to the public would match the accessibility of alcohol, if not trump it. As we know, marijuana causes many chemical reactions in the brain including, but not limited too, a feeling of being 'high', 'laziness', 'droziness' and a mellow feeling. That's all fine and dandy, hell I could drop some Taurine and Melotonin at the same time and get generally the same effect...but prolonged use of marijuana has a horribly noticeable effect on one's short term memory, as well as motor skill development. Do we really want kids to be exposed to marijuana at such a critical age that it could permanently disrupt their development into a functioning adult? My opinion? No. No we don't. Disagree if you must, but don't expect me to change my mind.

Oh joy, another 'legalize it' debate. Thank god most of you don't vote.

That's the car I want to get in a year or so, but they go for about $5500 here. They usually go for $5,500 -$6,500 around here, too. which is kinda why I want to pounce on it I'd go for it. What color? it's gray with black trim, and lacks a spoiler. I plan on changing all of that if I buy it though, with the extra money saved from the initial purchase. I want it black with a purple underglow, purple rims, and obviously a spoiler. But let's worry about buying the car itself first lol

Day 7: song that reminds you of an event; I remember September of 2001, and basically the next few months of that school year not because of 9/11, but because they played this song on the announcements everyday thereafter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3S7mlRYL-8

Found an '07 Cobalt Coupe for $2100. Might get it. As long as we're on the subject of cars. This week is going to be filled with paper writing >.> 3 pages tonight for tomorrow, 10 pages tomorrow for friday, and then 5 pages sunday for monday

I knew I should have asked for an opinion before I went scissor-crazy. Oh well, it'll grow back. I didn't even notice much difference, the third picture just looks like you combed everything a little more carefully

I hope you learned from this experience, Tim. NEVAR... tell me if I am, and to what magnitude that I am jelly.

Funny, only a year has passed and that "9" is now a "5" to which only 2 original members remain. Life goes on, things change, yada yada

Yeah. I have to agree. Not a fan of Coco pops either. Thirding this motion. Chocolate in the morning is kinda gross. Special K w/ strawberrys is where its at.

Absolutely nothing! [as i'm writing my 6 page bibliography]

"Only block driveways with cars for 2 hours, no more." Find another means of blocking driveways. i suggest cinder blocks, as they can't easily be run over, and aren't difficult to transport

The Cape? :(

you're [bleep]ing intense with this lol. Where on earth did you get a water gun that shoots ~40ft? as for tactical advice...bring your pistols to school, wait by the exit to your main road leading to your school and get them all as soon as they leave school grounds. Either that, or just chill indoors for long periods of time

Day 6: a song that reminds you of somewhere...They play this song at every wedding at the catering hall I work at. Not a bad song, and I think of work everytime I hear it lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVESzTCqc50

Day 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsO6ZnUZI0g I fell in love to this song about 4 or 5 years ago. I think of her everytime I hear it. Ah, to be a highschool sweet heart again.

Tried to get a raise today. My boss's boss is trying to cut back on employees, resulting in the downsizing of virtually all of the people I hired recently. Obviously, this means no raise. Balls.

I feel like this happened a lot longer ago than "recently" but I think it's stupid to suppress a people's freedom to express their religious beliefs. It's not like all the burqa wearing broads are forcing other chicks into them. That I'd have a problem with. But if their just minding their own business, doing their own thing, I really don't think any laws have to be involved.

Day 4: Song that makes you sad: There's a handful of songs out there that make me sad, but this one in particular gets me for some reason. I know everyone hates on Nickelback, but ya'll can shove it, because hating them is mainstream. And they were once a very respectable band. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BB0DU4DoPP4

Also happens to be a friday lol

Pissed at my sister. Dosed on Melotonin. Now I'm depressed and pissed at my sister. Obviously that didn't work in my favor.
