Moral Dilemma
:o I think I love you. (btw, how is your baby doing?, I haven't spoken to you in months) : But seriously, your view of fate and balance of good and bad are identicle to my own philosophies. The difference is...I love screwing with fate. Mostly because fate is often cruel and unjust. I frequently feel the need to step in and atleast try to balance out fate. As for the whole good vs. bad thing...spot on to what I've been thinking. There will always be a shadow cast somewhere when there is a light.

If you could stay at any age forever...
lol. Obama is barely over that age and he became the president of the United States... Plus he has a family and kids. His decisions from January 2009 onwards will affect hundreds of millions of people's lives across the world. If that's not "something", then nothing in life matters. OT: Definitely 18-25, the above poster has good logical reasons on why 3-4 would be ideal too, but then you'd be entirely dependent on parents... Not to sound like a jerk, but the question asked what age YOU would like to be frozen at. Not everyone is Obama. And ideally, yes his decisions could affect millions. But lets face it, it takes years to accomplish something even really small and stupid. Plus if you do something wrong, everyone hates you. Or if something major goes wrong, even if you can't help it, everone hates you. That doesn't sound like a very good life to me. and yes my choice of being 3 did rely on parental dependance, but...I figured that was just a given when choosing that age.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Unfortunatly underage drinking is more than acceptable where I live. We had the AP Stat class draw up a chart deal and it revealed that 74% of our highschool drinks or has drank. I'd say about 30% drink regularly. On another note, I find it funny that you are like the eighth person on this thread alone to tell me to dump her. :lol:

Who is your favorite Tipiter?
IGoddessI GingerWar Dragoonson (I may have misspelled one or two) and basically everyone from the relationship thread I have a debt to that thread that I don't think I could ever repay. Thos three names just stick out to me the most. This is my first day posting in like 6 months, and those were the only three I could remember from the thread. Each had helped me greatly in life and I owe them a lot. Saying they're my favorite posters isn't enough.

If you could stay at any age forever...
I would choose to stay at age 3. Cause I'd be cute as hell with out a care in the world. I wouldn't even care that there's so much fun in being 25 or 16 or even 18. Face it, at three...there are no worries at all. here's some flaws in ages: 0-2: Cute, but most of your day consits of being smothered, asleep, or being yelled at. 3-4: Still cute, and life is all about exploration and fun 5: school starts and negetive aspects of the world come into play 6-10: parental control starts to suck. rebellion ensues. fun is countered by guilt and responsibilty 11-13: awkward phase. blech. 14-18: fun...but way too much to do and think about. plus there's an overwhelming amount of responsibility that in my opinion outway the actual fun factors. 18-21: this is when real life supposedly smacks you across the face. that's no fun 21-35: peak of physical fitness and the like. responsibility and pressure to "grow up" suck the life outta this group. 35-45: midlife crisis. *shudder* 45+: too old to really do anything. on the plus side you can retire and enjoy your family. too bad your too old to really do anything. If it matters I'm 16. So my opinions lack a bit of info.

How would you raise your children?
I want my kids to be raised exactly like me. Except, with a more prominent father figure. The way I plan on raising my kids, they'll be smart, disciplined, and probably lacking creativity. It's a fair trade off though. I'm going to be very conservitive about everything though. As libereal as I am, I want my kid nothing like that. My kid will certainly have an open mind, but (s)he certainly won't love everything. I'll also spit out life lessons like a damn fortune cookie like my dad did for me. It's what made me what i am today. And I think I'm a pretty good person. Here's some main points I'll enforce: Fairness Justice Unbias Judgement Open minded perception is reality keep your eyes open and your head up, there more to this world than you can see athletic musical talent jewish morals and ethics jewish traditions reading lessons at 4 math lessons at 3 logical thinking at 5 minimal videogames until 12 how to address people respect more respect (its that important) how to meet people drugs/drinking = bad Everything else I'll let him/her decide. Of course, I'll vote whether or not it's for the greater good or not. It does seem a bit tight and hard, but it's how I was rasied. And so will my kid. And I'll be damned if (s)he isn't.

Check it.
When I was much younger yes, I constantly came up with ideas for videogames. I even drew up some concept art every now and then. But is it ever going anywhere? No. Were they bad ideas? I really don't know. But the world won't ever know either, so there. =p

Moral Dilemma
1: Interesting question. If you were to let the train go, you would feel as though you could have done something. Then again, The workers should have known the train was coming, so it was more their fault then yours. Following the logic that 3 lives > 1 life. You would hit the switch. The problem now is that you are personally responsible for taking a man's life. This sucks even more because he was the one smart enough to not work on the area the train was still running on. If the 1 guy died, you'd feel awful for taking the guys life, and the other three guys would feel responsible because their stupidity cost them their friend. Personally I'd probably go with instinct and flip the switch. This would of course be followed by a mad dash for the lone worker in a desperate attempt to get his attention. 2a: I'd stick my finger in the babies mouth and cover it's head with a blanket. Just not with lethal force. Babies rarely survived those kind of conditions anyway, not that that justifys killing the purely innocent. In short, i'd stifle/muffle. But not kill. 2b: Same answer, but if I must, I'd dash out with the baby into the Nazi forces so that I am killed and hopefully grab the attention away from the other survivors. I wouldn't want to live after watching someone murder a baby anyway.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
There's a long story behind this short story but its rather irrelevant so I'll skip to the point. My girlfriend called me at 4 in the morning today. I was just over her house like 5 hours before at a party with her. She calls to say she got drunk as soon as I left. I am very pissed off. She's only 16. She doesn't drink. Nor do I. It's bugging the hell outta me to put it lightly. Advice?

Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone (New Album)
Psychosocial (debut single): very good song. Little more hardcore than my taste, but I still liked it very much. All Hope Is Gone (title track): Very hardcore. Didn't like as much as "psychosocial". There's just way too much noise...even for a metal head like myself. Overall I think I'd rather spend my money on Stone Sour albums (which I still have to buy :/ )

Recommend an artist/band to the poster above you
You're either very desperate or very sarcastic. May I suggest some 'Fell Far Behind'?

Why is it wrong for males to hit females?
That's like asking "Why is it when a man is with tons of good looking girls, he's cool - but when a girl is with tons of good looking guys is viewed as a [bleep]?" It's a simple double-standard of society. Face it. We're all slightly sexist. Most of us in the males favor.

Acne *Dun dun dun!*
I didn't get anything even remotely close to acne until i was nearly 15. Even then it wasn't bad. My skin is smooth, I get a maximum of like 3 zits on my face at all times, usually under my lower lip or on the sides of my nose. The only problem is, although I don't have many breakouts, mine tend to last a good week or two and tend to be rather large. And by rather large I mean about the size of Lincoln's head on a penny. It's not too awful, especially compared some people I've seen. I heard tooth paste can keep acne down for those of you looking for home remedies.

That kid that went to your school.
Lol these are some good stories. Here's a few of mine that i can only come up with at the time. Taha (grade 7). I don't wanna give out his last name, but lets just say if it sounded any more Pakistani, it would smell of curry. Anyway in general he was a cool guy. Had the nasty of habit of spitting out death threats though. Not very easy to tick him off, but he was one of those immature guiys that would hate random people for no real reason. One day he went a tad over the edge and started a streak of bomb threats including brining knives and gun powder to school. Got him arrested & expelled. Mary (grade 11). Slightly autistic. Shall I go on? Basically she flips out when people make cat noises. That and she goes buck over the smallest of things. I did get the chance to get to know her better, and in actuality she is rather nice and pretty cool. Just really loud. And really obsessed with anime. But seriously I remember one time she came into Chemistry tutoring, she stormed in, yelled "I hate Chemistry" at the top of her lungs the threw her text book at a bunch of test tubes. Later that year she was in lunch with me and for reasons I'm still not sure of she got up, stood on top of the table and yelled "I hate you all" then proceded to throw a water bottled full force at a teacher. Good times.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
That's fine. I don't think I've even been on this thread in two months. Ah well... :-w In truth there really isn't a lot you can do. I mean, if you're both adults and you can provide for yourself I suppose the two of you could get a flat or something and move in with each other. Another alternative is to ask your own parents if she can stay round if her mum does move away. What you have to realise though is, chances are, the two of you will be separated at some point. You'll both go to college or something, and you'll be miles apart from each other. It's nice to live the teenage dream relationship now and believe it's gonna last forever, but the vast majority of teenage relationships DON'T last forever. Enjoy now, instead of worrying about the inescapable future. You are right to be worried. Long-distance relationships almost never work because of the lack of a physical connection between the people involved. Without that connection, the emotional attachment also seems to fade away and soon enough to you start filling your free time by talking to other girls and one or the both of you realise it's time to move on. You have her mother's promise though. I doubt her grandmother is the only thing keeping her mum in town, trust me. She must see some potential in living there - maybe a job or a career or just a general way of life. And I doubt she'll want to move just like that. That's really all I have to say. Be honest with yourself. Cutting your own instincts down simply to save a relationship is a loving thing to do, but it's not usually the right thing to do. Glad to see I got advice from a true veteran of this thread. That's about the only good news though -.- . A few hours after my original pot, her grandmom died. Right infront of my girlfriend. Must have been a bit traumatizing. But anyway, as things seem to be working out, her mom is holding off on moving until graduation. Then they'll move back to their old home town and she'll go to college there. It sucks, but so does life. But you're right, instead of focusing on the bleak future, I should pay attention to the amazing things that are happening in the present. Can't say I love how this is all going down, but atleast its not worst case scenario.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I'm a mess. Before I begin my issue, I'd like to apologize for being so neglectful to this thread and this forum in general for the past 6 months or so. after the site crash, i just never returned. Well...here is my first post in a very long time.... My issue is by no means simple. I'll try to simplify it as much as possible, but it won't be easy. My girlfriend has a very complicated and distrought homelife. Long story short on that end is that she lives over 10 hours away from all her family except her mom whom she lives with now. The only reason her mom chose to house her in this particular area was because that the grandmom lived not too far away. The grandmom is now highly ill in a hospitol and it's pretty much a miracle that she's even still alive this second. Her life kind of depends on the location of my girlfriend to a certian point though. If the grandmom dies, the mom is going to want to move away and take my girlfriend with her. There enlies the issue. The mom told my girlfriend that she would stay in my town as long as our relationship held strong. Good news for me, but me and her both kind of feel bad for being such a burden on the mom. We've been going out for the equivlelent of a year now (almost exactly) and i just don't know what to do. Long distance relationships are rather out of the question. But I refuse to end such an amazing relationship over anything. When I promised that, I didn't exactly expect anything as heavy as this...but I still stand by that promise. Now then... What the hell can I do? :(

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I really can't stand when people think social standings matter. I've seen some really geeky guys with some really hot girls before. It happens all the time. Social stature has nothing to do with it, and if you think it does...then you may not be mature enough for an actual relationship. Well, I'm not there to really judge it, and every girl has their own way of showing interest...but my guess is, yes she's into you. And well if she isn't...its not like you really lost anything. So, ask her out and see where it goes :wink: umm...huh? (Could you elaborate on this "honey moon" period a bit[for my sake]?)

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
:lol: You were just watching comedy central weren't you? anywho...sorry I haven't been as responsive as i usually am on this thread I try to keep up with all of it, but now that i have a life again, it's tough :P I'll just throw some advice in so this isn't completely spammy: That's a shame. You seem really into a girl you can't have. Human behavior tells me you want her more because you know you can't have her. But as long as shes with the other dude, i saw lay off. And if you end up giving up on her, it may be for the best (so you don't screw with their relationship). Next time, make your move before the other guy :wink:

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Alright, sorry to cut into IgoddessI 's problem, but i got a question. Me and my girl (for those paying attention, my relationship with her is by putting it lightly, complicated) were on a date tonight. So we walked to her friends house, like usual and started kissing on her friends bed. It got pretty intense and then she just kind of stopped, gave me a sad face and walked out of the room. I followed her and asked what was wrong, she replied with a "I don't want to end up like my sister" (who got pregnant in highshool and has had a really...'interesting'...life style since.). I said that if i was going to fast i'll slow it down, but she didn't really respond to it. She basically said she didn't want to talk about it. I know her pretty well, but i'd never seen this kind of reaction before. Was it something I did, or is this an issue on her side of the deal? Or is this one of those questions that i'm really paranoid about, and you guys can't really help because you weren't there? :-s

What is a word? and Any point to this?
lol, i often question the importance of words. after all they are just sounds. simply noises we make in which we communicate with each other. If you repeat the same word over and over for a few minutes non stop, you start to realize just how odd the word would sound if it meant nothing.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
0.0 wow, i never thought I'd see the day. I can't believe you're dumping him, you seemed so into him, so much so that I actually knew how much you loved him before you even said so in this post (you had a habit of bringing him up in other OffTopic threads). Can't believe after 4 years you're just gonna end it. If you feel it isn't right, by all means don't let me stop you, but personaly i think the only thing more important than communication in a relationship is dedication. If you find a way to cope with the iminiant pain, would you mind telling the rest of us? I'm sure there are plenty of people on here who would love to know. i wish you luck with your future relationships. And although I doubt you'll need it, if you need any help or whatever we're all here for you. Hell, as this thread proves you've been there for everyone else.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Give a different guy to chase after. Kind of like throwing someone else into the line of fire to save yourself. If she's interested in some one else, chances are she won't think of you as a potential boyfriend. Well, I'm really no good in these kind of situations, but if you really want my input: Girl 1: she's religious, and since you've known her for so long, you may want to hold off for a real relationship with her. You seem to be looking for a short term thing Girl 2: Sister of a friend? don't go there. If things get gly between you two at some point, it will get ugly between you and a lot of other people. Not a road you really want to go down, unless you really like her. Girl 3: Party girl? sweet. They're loads of fun, even if you're not usually a party person. If you're looking for some short term fun; go for this girl.
