That is really interesting. I wonder if it would be possible to spend two years at another school and then transfer. Oh wait, looking through their site, it really looks like it doesn't go by traditional school principles at all. I could start school in January if I wanted to. And since it's a two-year program where most universities take four, technically it's about as much as a state school. And since it's private, no out-of-state tuition. Huh. I'm going to have to look at it. Financial aid seems solid. Wonder what scholarships they have... And aquarius, you should win a prize.

Lent, seriously, how old are you? Fifteen. Ish.

The only trouble I've had is if there's a guy who flirts with everyone. Then I can't tell whether they're genuinely interested or not. Try and be more attentive on him. I flirt a lot for s'n'gs, but I can tell if a girl genuinely is interested. Odds are, the guy that's comfortable enough around women to constantly flirt is pretty good at picking up on that too. Standing really close to him, touching him a lot, those are two of the biggest things I notice. That hey wanna hook up thing is a lot cooler, honestly, rpg. You should buy a leather or at least denim jacket to wear whenever you say that. Then, before she answers, light up a cigarette and take a drag. Yeeeeeeeah.

Really just about anything can be considered an IOI depending on inflection, body language, stuff like that. There are just some that should instantly make you know "hey this girl/guy is into me" (for you girls: guy's IOI's are pretty much unnecessary for you. we're generally very obvious and not subtle).

Or become his best bud. Seriously though, you'll become friends with everyone in theater, especially if you guys put on a production. Cast and crew are a little bit more separate from each other than they are in their individual groups (if you get what I mean), but everyone's still really tight. You're a family. A very flamboyant, eccentric family. And building sets is fun as [cabbage]. Just throwing that out there.

I like the multiple universes idea. Or, infinity minus one idea. Not quite infinite, but damn close. Perhaps there is a universe where everyone wears one of those fruit hats. Everything else is the same, except obviously there is no religion or war or technological advancement. Everyone is busy balancing their fruit hats. Plus, when you consider perception - your universe is really created by your brain. You don't hear or see or taste things - your brain decides you do. So, really, the way I see it, if you convinced your brain that gravity doesn't exist, it won't! I read too much Hitchhiker's Guide.

Stage crew builds sets and does everything to make a play work. Anything theater-related is incredibly fun to do, and a great way of making friends, I promise you. There's probably already a good sound guy, for example I know there's a senior at my school who does the sound for every production, but he has to train someone to take over when he's gone, right? I have to try and find a ride to school for tomorrow. It's tough, because most of my friends are in football and they went to a game in New Mexico today and probably aren't even done playing yet. And walking to school would suck since it's about a mile (not too bad) in 30-degree weather. Actually it's supposed to get colder tomorrow and rain even more than today, possible sleet. [bleep] me.

In fact, you aren't asking her to go out with her. You're telling her that she is going out with you Friday. I was thinking, the term "asking out" sounds pathetic and unmanly. Telling a girl that you're going out, however, is guaranteed to put hair on your chest.

Yep, and this was when they began the ice-cream frosty thing, where you could add toppings onto your frosty, you know what I'm talking about? I had M&M's on this particular day. They certainly offset the crunchy saltiness of the bacon in a very good way. The cheese was not helpful with the overall taste, though. I love wendy's, you guys. About the only fast food I would ever eat on a daily basis. Probably because the only one close to me is 3 miles away, so even on a bike that's burning whatever calories I pick up over there :lol:

Haha, yeah, like imagining that we're hanging around on electrons that are atoms making up some giant people. I think about stuff like that sometimes, but it's really just flights of fancy. It doesn't really pertain to me whether or not some thumb is hovering above us until it falls, so, oh well.

Man, I need to talk to my Spanish teacher. I should have a 95 or so in that class, but I have a 63 because some papers a sub was supposed to give us never gave us them, so the whole class has three papers missing and thus three zeroes. It's clear I did the rest of the assignments on that day - and I got 100's on them both because they were easy verb worksheets - but I better fix that. End of the six weeks is next week, so, yeah. Oh, and we got Dish television the other day. It's pretty cool. I thought it was neat but not any huge deal, until I realized we have more than 200 music stations. A lot of them suck, but I've found 50 good ones I absolutely love. Hard to choose which I want to listen to. I wish Pandora could have a television station, haha.

Surprisingly good, actually, pieguy. I used vanilla, though. And I haven't done the new "wings" because they're just chicken nuggets with sauce so poo on them.

Two I can name off of the top of my head - plasma cosmology and steady-state. The Big Bang theory rests on a few things we can't even prove yet, we know - it's just hypotheses that hold it together. Hypothetical inflation fields and so-called "dark matter", for two. It just bugs me that everyone accepts it for fact - well, anything for fact - when it's just the thing that got popular. Other theories are hardly even given funding anymore. And yeah, I like fighting the mainstream period. For anything, really. Rebel without a cause or something like that. Although I'm more apathetic, at least towards my non-causes.

I've dipped one of every menu item at Wendy's into a Frosty. My favorites are still fries and chicken nuggets, though.

Right idea, wrong method. Don't ignore her, (unless when first opening, and I'm pretty sure nobody else on this thread opens anyway) instead disqualify yourself while DHVing, or use a neg or 2 (or more) if you think she might get hit on a lot. Apparently some 10s in places like LA won't respond unless you neg a couple times in a row within the first few seconds. Hey, I open at parties and social situations. Nowhere near as strongly as a real gamer would, though. Just the fact that I do it seems to put me ahead of the race, and if I came on too strongly gaming, I'd probably scare a high school girl away. To Alex's dilemma, to be honest, a face-to-face conversation would be better. Because if you're hilarious as hell on msn and can't follow it up in real life, she'll be disappointed. If you think you can handle it, break the ice via the internet, but most people are far more humorous behind their screens. I'm funnier in different ways. Physical humor is tough online.

I believe that there is a God, and he's probably from Japan. Therefore, we are entirely wrong, and the Big Bang and Genesis are both stupid, as we'll find out in the future, because something incredibly ridiculous happened. There are plenty of theories that go against the Big Bang with that equally ridiculous term "empirical evidence". It's just that nobody cares about them, and Carl Sagan ignored them. Scientific elitism. "Not only do I have to be right, all of my friends that have equally good ideas must be wrong! And in 200 years everyone will agree with me and definitely won't think we were ignorant people who knew nothing!" I hate elitism. I'm very elitist about it. With such things in science that don't effect me in the slightest, I take a stance of not caring. We'll all be proven wrong some time in the future.

Say: "I can't." Or, alternately, ignore her. Either one works. If she tries to initiate conversation, be cold. Use body language to show you're bored and not listening or caring, and keep responses to "Yes" or "no".

You have terrible reading comprehension. So what if one company is doing this? Of all the things that happen in China, the one you're most worried about is dudes not being able to pretend to be wizards with vaginas? Really?

Not at all. Quit thinking you're a social reject, or you will be one.

Depends on how you define interesting. I know very few genuinely interesting people. But I have low standards for friends, so as long as they have a cool name it's aight. Know what I'm saying? Nawmisayin? Anyways. Just lower your standards. Everyone has something interesting about them once they've reached a certain age, you just have to dig a little deeper to find it. But not by being friend zoned. That's the whole point of dating - to find out about people and choose someone to be in a relationship. You shouldn't stalk people and find out everything about them, because imagine how boring it would be hanging out with them? "Hey, remember that time we did that thing together we both knew about?" "Yeah" "Yeah it was pretty cool huh?" "I'm leaving." Or so.

Houston has the most black people in Texas. But you obviously didn't go through much of Houston - there's still more hispanics and black people than you seem to think. Through all the state, Hispanics make up between 30 and 40 percent I guess, and blacks make up maybe 15 to 20, from what I can remember from geography last year. Lot of Asians in the bigger cities as well. But North Texas and the Panhandle have the most whites. Really North Texas actually, although there aren't many black people in the Panhandle.

I'm Texan. So a good deal of Eastern Europe and Native American. Mainly Comanche. I have a feeling most people here are white. Then, I would find the next largest group Asian, and then Hispanic, and finally black. AND THEN, ZULU! WAHAHA!

-David DeAngelo on meeting women, Double Your Dating 2nd edtition. Being barely 15, I can't really go to bars or clubs, so do you guys have any suggestions when it comes to where you can meet girls? I'm really annoyed at the lack of interesting girls at my school. :mellow: Teenage/college hangout spots. I'm sure there are a few in your city.

Not much different from chili cheese fries. The cheese is just a little less ... melty. And the chili isn't chili at all. It's gravy. Which is not chili, you know?

School is a real confidence-killer for me. And it really bums me out that I make such a worse impression in school than I do outside. I'm actually more comfortable with complete strangers than people I see every day. Then again, I can see the logic behind that. With schoolmates, if you mess up too badly it ruins your reputations, so staying a little quieter can help. But still, I hardly act like myself at all in school. And it's lame. Oh well. There are very few people who actually act like themselves in high school, and around this age many people don't even act like themselves outside of school. I guess I'm lucky in that I don't like [cabbage].
