Why would you want a fully automatic? You run through ammunition so fast, a civilian really has no use for it. I mean, rapatatat and you're done. Now, if it's just collecting, I think that's fine, because a lot of automatic weapons are the bee's knees.

Nobody says what they mean, especially not teenagers. And most things people say are pointless, because everyone acts like an idiot because they're afraid of being singled out. I know people that pretend they don't know what "ambiguity" means. And they take the same classes as me. I don't even know what you think seems horrible, considering 90% of young adults and teenagers in the west drink occasionally or often for entertainment.

I throw the chicken flavored ones in a pot with water. No others. I didn't know you could season them. I thought it was against the law or something. Or, maybe it just never occurred to me. I really prefer the first explanation, to be honest.

But, who says he would try to spend it all? Maybe he'll just set up a one-world-government. Or get into money fights with what's left of the Rockefellers. With billion-dollar bills.

This is a stupid survival situation. How would we know how much food we have? Different food lasts different amounts of time. What kind of island is it? Where is it? I'd have some nice leisurely swims, and, assuming my friend is Zooey Deschanel, eliminate the taboo on nudity. I just got a free vacation, might as well enjoy it!

Yeah, but you'll probably have a kick-[wagon] kitchen. "Hey, want some foie gras with your freshly brewed beer, sir? Watch out for the stuffed dolphin!" I imagine your home to be like that.

The beginning was normal, and probably what most people would do. The ending was where the little bell should have gone off in the student's head. But, of course, we have the power of hindsight. I'm sure the guy feels terrible. But when you're in a combat like that, even though it's in a dojo, there will be so many chemicals released into your body that your entire mindset is framed around the word "kill". If it wasn't, we wouldn't be the best species on the planet now. Hope the guy's okay. But it isn't like he was just walking down the street and then BAM! they started beating the hell out of him. He wanted to spar. And black belts, when they spar, they take that [cabbage] seriously. EDIT: Oh, this was in the 80's? Seriously? Why don't I just [bleep]ing post videos of the Holocaust and we can all discuss how terrible it was? Come on.

Jumping 200 feet in the air and landing safely. I think that would be interesting. The ability to make it rain candy with my thoughts. But only crappy off-brand candy that nobody likes. Invisible pee that doesn't stain or smell or anything. 'Nuff said about that one.

Haha. A girl and guy I know broke up recently (I told them both they should break up when they'd been dating for more than the entire second semester, but they didn't even though they haven't seen each other all summer), and the girl's myspace changes every day from "Losing the one you love hurts :/" to "I hate him!" to "(other dumped phrase)". I think it's kinda funny, but I'm a major [wagon].

I'm a lot like tripsis, I don't stress nearly as much as I probably should. I get into a lot of stressful situations by not being stressed. Imagine that. Sometimes I do get stressed, though. Mainly just wondering about the future. Sometimes it's hard to paint a good picture.

Well, guess what kids. While you were sleeping, Big Brother (Or Big Business? The Rockefellers run it either way...) has been preparing a "Secure Flight Program" prepared to "keep us safe" while we fly. Of course, should the government decide that you spent a little too much time in the military, or maybe you checked out the wrong book at the library, you'll "accidentally" be marked on the no-fly list. Conveniently, this act has been passed with zero media coverage and nearly no public discussion. There are almost no articles about it, because NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT IT. This is the best one I could find out of a dozen, and if anyone finds one that's more angry, please post it so I can throw it up here. This is an outrage. The totally legit act that's helping us be SO MUCH safer. [hide=The Washington Post is the best I could do.] [/hide] This makes the Rockefeller part of Zeitgeist discussing the New World Order begin to look eerily true. [hide=Zeitgeist.][yt]pVEPlxwlzCE[/yt][/hide] Now, you guys know me. I'm not exactly a conspiracy guy, mainly because I don't think that our government has that much power. But this stuff makes you think, maybe it isn't the government? Maybe there's a power that makes the federal government quake like a little girl? I don't trust this. You might not think it's huge, but this is the first step to a Real ID for every citizen of our "democratic" nation. Maybe I should start listening more closely to Alex Jones. EDIT: Oh look, Alex Jones has a take on this. This will infuriate you more, so check it out guys. [hide=Alex Jones] [/hide] More control. What the [bleep], why can't we put a stop to this? Why doesn't this guy just hang around every airport on Earth?

Okay. I live in Lubbock, Texas, and it sucks balls. So, I'm not going to talk about it. I'll talk about Amarillo and the Panhandle, where I might as well live because I spend as much time as I can in Amarillo and Canadian. It hovers around 100-110 degrees fahrenheit every single day during summer (starting in April, ending in October), we have a "spring" and "fall" that last about a week, and then during winter all bets are off. We get blizzards and it can be in the low teens or single digits (with wind chill it hits negative teens, blizzards are rough here, and wind is X-treme), then the next day it could be 80 degrees. Wind. Well, there's a lot of wind because there's nothing to stop it. Lot of ranch land, some farming for cotton and the occasional corn. During a recent thunderstorm, just north of Lubbock an 86 mph gust got clocked. Thunderstorms are awesome. Rain, hail, wind, lightning, I love it. Even tornadoes, even though they're scary as [cabbage] no matter who you are. I've seen a couple dozen in my life, I suspect, and about 4 or 5 have affected me directly. One has hit my house - well, my yard. it hit our neighbors and left us with minor damage except to our porch (we had to completely rebuild it). Lot of bugs and creatures. Coyotes are a big problem, especially in Canadian. If one is seen, it's usually shot. Snakes have to be watched for, and you always shake your shoes out for spiders and scorpions if they were in a place where they could have collected them. Amarillo has a real small-town feel to it, even though it has almost 200,000 people living there. A lot of ranching, and a lot of good food. Namely, Mexican and Texan fare. A couple restaurants serve great tamales along with chicken fried steak. I really love the plains. Now, I guess I'll talk about Lubbock. Unfortunately. It's a lot like the Panhandle weather-wise, only much more mild. There hasn't been a tornado touched down since last year, and there's never more than a couple a year in the entire Llano Estocado. A lot of Mexican people, because Lubbock is a major place for illegal immigrants to settle. I'm not really sure why, cotton farming doesn't much more work than a family would be able to provide. Huge differences between the poor and the rich. Almost no middle class here. The school I go to is pretty wealthy, but that doesn't say much, because most of the black kids and mexicans think they're in a gang while some white kids think they're living in the Hamptons or something and the rest think they're in Compton. I'm ready to get out of here. Dust storms every fall and spring, thanks to the cotton and the wind. It sucks. I developed allergies to all the cottony dust. Oh, and Lubbock has terrible drivers. Texas Tech's campus is really the nicest part of town. There's nothing to do here, really. Drive north and watch the storms. There is one biking trail that's fun to explore, although a lot of major drug deals go down there so if you hear someone you have to hide. And it's true that Texas Tech has some of the hottest college girls in the country. However, the polls saying they're the [bleep]tiest and most prone to STDs (1 in 3.5 girls in Lubbock county has chlamydia alone) are also, sadly, true. Not a lot of diversity at the university, either. Mostly rich white kids from Dallas and Houston. Anyways, Amarillo and the whole Panhandle is really pretty nice. Just be respectful, because otherwise you'll get your [wagon] handed to you. Lubbock, just keep away. If it wasn't for Texas Tech there'd be nothing here.

Really is a nice place. I wanted to just walk around more when I was there, but my grandparents are old so we had to drive literally everywhere. If it was two blocks, we had to drive it. Dammit.

My dad was making fun of me. He was a combat engineer in the Marines, so he got to shoot all sorts of [cabbage] - tanks a couple times during his time in the service, his M16 just about every other day, mounted weapons as often as he could ... He never shot a .45 unless he had to, though. I always thought that was wierd. Anyways, when I start living on my own, I plan on keeping more guns than my father. He never really kept many around, I had to go to my extended family about guns. But now I really like shooting. Hunting still isn't very exciting for me, but, who knows. Maybe I'll learn to bow-hunt. Or just jump out of the trees and wrestle bucks to death. :P

Stop drinking water wha? Anyways. I've achieved a whole [cabbage] load. I grew and past 6 feet (I think that's an achievement), I managed to tone my arms and chest a little, learned how to ride a bike, learned how to approach whoever I want and start a conversation, learned how to play my harmonicas even better, learned a lot about a whole bunch of stuff through books, proved I could do a 6-minute mile (well, 6:09), opened up musical highways, took myself out of my comfort zone in San Francisco, Seattle and Vancouver, and a whole bunch of other stuff. I'd list my vacation achievements, but it's a lot and I have to do my summer reading project.

I wish I lived on the west coast. Holding doors and all that is in my blood. If it gets that good of a reaction, I'd be in business. Here it's just another thing everyone takes for granted.

Theremin, harmonica, banjo, ukulele, or the ability to DJ. All would be interesting, unique skills. Particularly theremining. Be MAD CRAZY YA'LL. As to being good at sex, why? That's 10,000 hours of sex you're passing up. Not like any of you will get it in the first place hahahahah. Of course, instantly having 10,000 hours of sex could probably be an interesting experience. Would it be a noticable, erm, mess? Or would it just kinda feel the same, and then you're just good in bed? Of course, it would probably take less than 100 hours for a guy to get good at it, and about 10 minutes for a girl.

He's in England, thus starting college in a few weeks. Crazy England. Anyways, I just noticed he said he didn't drink - ARE YOU CRAZY? You're of legal age, why the [bleep] not? Do you know how much opportunity that gives you? Bars are [bleep]ing great places to meet people! You don't have to drink yourself, and even if you do, it isn't hard to keep from getting drunk. It's just alcohol, come on! Man, you don't know how lucky you are. Us Americans get our freedoms and responsibilities dragged out for as long as [bleep]ing possible. At about 5 years old and up, it's possible to be tried as an adult. 16, you can drive (generally). 18, you can smoke stuff, have sex, taxes, vote. But you don't get to legally drink until you've lived for 2 and one tenth decades! Thoroughly ridiculous. Prohibition was idiotic and it's left a lasting impression, leading to kids not knowing how to drink safely and many more drinking-related fatalities than in European countries where who gives a [cabbage], it's just beer. Anyways. Go have a drink on me. Or, you know, on my IOU.

That is changing his mind frame. If he's walking around depressed and miserable, people will pick up on that vibe and avoid him. Seriously, sometimes changing isn't a bad thing. Although what you said is pretty much the same advice. It's just that if he thinks he feels better, he will feel and look better. I, for example, have taken up the habit of looking at myself and commenting on how sexy I am every time I pass a mirror. Silly? Yes. Awesome? Yes. And it builds confidence like a mother [bleep]er.

Got mine yesterday, but they've been known to change on the first day. Which sucks, because you're supposed to go to your second-period class to get your new schedule. And guess what: your second period can change! And there's a list of everyone's 2nd periods in the school, but it's like a game of hide-and-seek for it. With 2500 kids. PLAH. I'm really [bleep]ing ready to start, though. My classes are apparently really strange, because nobody out of the 30 or so people I know have the same periods. We have the same classes, but they're complete opposite days. It's wierd. Oh, wait, my friend that just moved back from Dallas has almost the entire second day of classes with me. Pretty hilarious, how it's his first year at this school and we have tons of classes together (I've only met him a couple times, he's a cool guy and a lot like me, but honestly more of a friend-of-a-friend) , but my friends I've been at school with since middle school don't have any. Haha. Oh well. I'm ready for theater in particular. I loved that class.

Nobody's going to give you some magical solution. You're in a terrible mind frame, for one thing. If you think it's impossible for you to meet girls or join a club or make friends, it will be impossible. If you think you're depressed, then you are! You need to start thinking you're a cocky, cool, hot piece of [wagon]. For one thing, start sitting up straight. Now, for one thing: have you actually been diagnosed with Asperger's? Because it seems like anyone who spends a lot of time playing games and not being social thinks they do. Not trying to be an [wagon], but if you're a hypochondriac, you need to realize it NOW before it really gets out of hand. Anyways. You have to start with your mind frame. You think every single thing to improve must be so hard, and your situation makes it impossible - all wrong. Don't want to get on the bus? Walk, take a bike. If you live in a moderately sized city, there will be plenty of places to meet girls. I mean, you could always wait for school, but that won't help as much as just walking around. Maybe go to a shopping mall. A big thing is, you need to make more friends, preferably ones that live close and/or drive. If you only think you can stay in your house, your mind and body will force you into staying. You need to walk around, enjoy life! Also, I thought the legal drinking age was 16 in England?

My answers were bolded. Take them as you will. Also, while school is much more tricky than the real world, I do not recommend using someone else to try and get a girl's number. It's nowhere near as ballsy as walking up and asking her.

What's a lanyard? We don't even have locked doors at our school, and if you walk sorta purposefully (or if you aren't Mexican or black) the teachers won't give a damn where you're going. We had to run around the school with swords in theater yesterday and about five teachers saw us without saying a word. Wonder when we're gonna get shot up. They've had threats every year since 2002 except for last year. Maybe my presence is protecting the school. Bet that's it.

Personally I think she just thinks of you as cute as in, her friend's little brother. But, hey, give it a shot. At the very least, if you get rejected, it'll cure this one-itis you got going. So, if you feel up for it, just go, hey, maybe we should do something as more than friends sometime. Sounds like a plan!

I just don't believe it would put a dent in operations at all. Even if it did, many of those cartels have incredible influence in Mexico. They're the ones we should worry about, and they're the ones that could handle something like that You're saying our government won't tax the living hell out of drugs they've fought hard against for over a century? Or hand the production and sales rights over to their buddies at the big tobacco companies? C'mon, man. I thought you were more cynical than that. Wasn't really directing that in a debating way. Because our states can't. For example, California, one of the largest and the most populous state, is in debt over 20 billion dollars. It would take federal power to do something like that, but, surprise surprise, our federal government doesn't have that sort of power. You have a point, but I don't think lessening their control on drugs (lessening, they would still have quite a bit of power) would hobble them as much as doing something with agriculture subsidies would with Afghanistan. I really don't care if it's sexist, because I'm pretty much positive there were no little girls crying over it. And if someone was offended, they should find something more important to worry about than whether or not someone on an internet forum is being sexist. This could be like 18th-century Congress. I have a cane, and I'm ready to fight about it. I honestly think nobody is competent enough to find some single clever solution to all this. Of course a ridiculous prohibition on drug use isn't great, but it would take a good 40 years, beginning today, to work education over drugs into schools and all that. There isn't even good education over alcohol and tobacco. It's always, "It's bad!" while kids can look at the TV and see people drinking just fine. What needs to be educated over is how a drink or two can be enjoyable, not just a means to an end (of getting thoroughly trashed). Anyways, I've started rambling into alcohol now. I'm tired of debating, and swore I'd stop a long time ago. Adios. Sorry, was that racist? I see you take me too seriously. I apologize for being cynical, but I figured it was useful for slowing down all the "Build a huge fence!!!" comments. By the way, I am sitting. In front of a computer. As are you. I guess I forget the State Department is waiting for us to come up with something good, and then take it. Ah tough love. I bet you'll become President now, just to make me look like an [wagon]. You'd better thank me in your speech. I'll be watching. Inauguration 2032, I believe? See you there.
