[hide=Kanye West isn't an idiot for once.][yt]s28ipdtgQM0[/yt][/hide] Anyways. We don't have a lot of people that are used to being a minority here, do we? Here's what I've picked up from school, should be about right... There are a few gangs in Lubbock, a couple serious ones that control drugs. We also are learning of an organized crime syndicate that robs big shipments of iPods and computers and that sort of thing. Not a whole lot of gang wars, but a lot of people get jumped. I know plenty of kids in gangs, some have dropped out. A lot of it is just [cabbage]ting and getting high, but it leads to the serious ones. Someone's brother or sister might be in a gang, and they'll act like they're in one of their own until they're old enough to join the real thing. Getting jumped is the only real thing to worry about. Car theft, burglary, stuff like that is only in the far-east part of town, where it's a real ghetto. Drugs trickle in, but it's nothing to bother you if you don't take it. But you'll get jumped for nothing. I carry a knife 24/7 now because I ride bikes and walk a lot with my friends. If you're in a group, you'll be all right most of the time. They're really cowards. A guy that went to our school (a sophomore, I think) actually sexually assaulted one of my classmates and got off with three weeks of community service because he was only 15. Of course, he wasn't so lucky at school - broke his collar bone for sure, then probably had a few other injuries. The gangs are bad, but not that bad. Only the serious ones or real idiots will rape girls. Everyone here takes that seriously. Even jumping someone here will end badly, most of the time. It's pretty much a mess at school. Most of the fights are caused because so-and-so jumped so-and-so's friend, and then it just strings out. It sucks. But I've never gotten jumped or anything, because nobody takes me seriously. A couple friends of mine have, though, and we've told all the girls we know to never go anywhere alone if they're walking or something. Gangs aren't good. Just my two cents from what I can see out my window.

We certainly had fun. That game at the end was a blast :lol:

I love just about every single album on there. Cool idea with the videos too, that's very helpful. Nice to see someone that likes Motion City Soundtrack, too. And Weezer, although I'm a little ashamed of loving them haha :lol:

This makes me mad. Teddy Roosevelt was probably the most kick-[wagon] guy ever. Having him as the leader of early 20th century United States? He should have a whole damn chapter. I agree about the history and whatnot getting cut out, too. My world history teacher last year was only interested in facts. Nothing else. If you knew the capital of a couple countries, great! How about how they feel about America, or maybe why they're an important nation? Pretty ridiculous. Maybe Skynet is already active, and saw Terminator, so it's just going to destroy education instead.

I'd love to try it, but I don't know a single place that would keep cool enough to brew in. It's at least 80 degrees in my house constantly, so I don't think I could brew easily.

Apparently we have a Five Guys. Guess I'll have to try it. Burgers and fries, eh? Sounds good.

But extremely ROCK AND ROLL Right?

HEY. HEY. WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING. I declare we join the brewing forums. Quoi was my paaaalll.

AUGH SO MUCH FUN. Me and a friend have found the most fun on every map. Hokay. Wake Island - The base close to the airfield on the side with the Allied carrier, right? There are islands right there that can be walked to (also an easter egg on one) through the water, with tons of bushes, rocks and a few trees. Me and my friends would hide there, and then sneak up and capture the base whenever it got taken. Our team did nothing, so we pretty much got a bloodless best squad :lol: Although you can just as easily take gun and snipe people or something. Guadalcanal - The giant rock-mountains that are pretty much the only islands must be swimmed to. There are easter eggs on them, and they're very fun to run around on - and if you're a good (or patient) sniper, you can snipe people that run around the fuel depot and ridge bases. Great fun. Iwo Jima - THE MOUNTAINS NEXT TO THE AIRFIELD OH GOD. Funny story - me and my pal were going around in boats looking for a good island like Wake Island's. We saw some guys on those mountains, shot at them, and it turned out they were enemy snipers! We were surprised, because it looks like a horrible spot. So began a massive battle that pretty much became the whole game. We'd rush the mountains (very hard), and those snipers (there were two different squads, it was so hard) would try to keep us back, it was GREAT. The first time we rushed out of curiosity, and there were so many snipers and even a few riflemen it was ridiculous. I got nine kills, my friend got six (he fell off the mountain twice). Eventually we got brought down because one of them had snuck to the other side of the mountain ridgey area. So began the next battle. Me and my friend both got into airplanes and flew straight into the snipers, who were now in two clusters on the mountains. I killed one or two with machine guns and bombs, but my friend crashed his plane perfectly and killed the rest of the far group. Then we had to counter-snipe the ones on the far side - very, very hard because we had rifles! Man, that was so much fun. Two of the guys sent me friend requests after the game. I should accept them... Anyways, since it's not likely that that will happen in other games, you can climb it (as a sniper) either straight from the airfield or along the beach of the Allied side. It's a really hard climb (except for one trail from the airfield, you'll probably find it), but that sniping is so much fun. You can kill people anywhere on the map, really, but the airfield, bunkers and lighthouse are easy shots. You'll want to clear the forest next to the airfield with C4, though, because it gets in the way. Otherwise, this is a great spot - nobody will see you (unless they're [bleep]ing around in a boat :lol:) and you can get plenty of kills. If anyone wants to play, my gamertag is Jett Airliner. I play pretty much every day, but I'll be gone after Thursday this week - my Mamaw passed away and we have to stay after her funeral.

Abc, just open your mouth and let words come out. It'll take practice, since you're essentially a total virgin to anything social. It isn't hard to make friends. Even though we're teenagers, a lot of us are still kids. Of course, if we were eight it would be much easier to make friends. You ask someone if they want to get some juice and BAM best friends for life.

Oh man, my uncle has a convertible Dakota. He hasn't kept it in repair, though, and it's just sitting by his barn, haha. That's a nice Grand Prix, too, especially for how much you got it for.

Not a website, a book. Titled Steal This Book. Guess they followed the advice. Except, they put it on the internet.

Maybe the world is going to end...

Seriously :lol: Plus, aren't all those pictures of the guys with the tans and hair pranks or something? I honestly don't think anyone would go out with five friends looking exactly the same and expecting to get chicks - or be taken very seriously.

Nah, in two hundred years the Israel-Palestine thing will probably be remembered as a minor thing. Unless one of those two groups conquer the world or something. Errrr.

NEW CHALLENGER. Wait, is Turkey open and unconquered? I don't plan on doing much this week. Wait, no, nevermind. I remembered how crazy it was last time. And I must fight the urges.

Happy?

We should form a club. I hope my birth ends up in them ... But, otherwise, I don't think there have been any huge events. Then again, the Battle of Agincourt was just another brawl for Henry V! Someone told him he should put it in the books, and he said, "Ye olde timey villiain! Offeth with thy headeth!" Paraphrased.

Here you go.

I'ma graduaaaaaaaaaaate high schoooooooooooooooooooool. [bleep] yeah. Sounds like a good year. TI will release a new album. So will Maroon 5. Several celebrities will die. There will be an election, and Obama will win. There will be trouble in the Middle East Christmas! Easter! July 4th! Thanksgiving! Birthday! I'll be 18! I'll start college! My parents might move to Dallas! I'll buy my motorcycle! Exclamation marks will be so out of style. Cancer drugs. Marijuana will be legalized and brutally turned into cigarettes by tobacco companies. I'm gonna take you by surprise, and make you realize, Amanda. There will be a boy and fifteen girls born on February 29th. I will get into a bar fight. I will meet Jewel Staite and Summer Glau and Morena Baccarin. What happens from there, can only be influenced by ROCK AND ROLL Ryan Reynolds will officially declare me his dawg. I'll visit New York City for the first time. Maybe I'll get mugged or something, haha. Recession = over! Challengers will become the official car of ROCK AND ROLL The expression ROCK AND ROLL will be so damn ROCK AND ROLL Stupid skinny jeans will be out of style. I'll actually have to go on a ROCK AND ROLL road trip to NYC, Chapel Hill, Austin, San Diego, San Francisco and Seattle because not only will I get accepted to the colleges I like, I will be BEGGED to go there. I will save the life of Adam Sandler. Adam Sandler will die. Fable 3 comes out. Is disappointing. I'll go to SXSW 2012 and I am so ROCK AND ROLL that I am declared the king of the festival. North Korea will not be ROCK AND ROLL punctuation and capitalization is lame Occasionally. Looks like ROCK AND ROLL to me!

I think that's really cool looking, actually return. And I really like the color. L0rd, I wish the parents around here had as much sense as you. There are about thirty Mustangs in our school's parking lot at the beginning of the year, all no older than 07 and many of them Shelby or GT. About five by the end of the year ... Plus a lotta kids get ridiculously large trucks. Most of the drivers in my group of friends have good starting cars, not exactly luxurious or fancy, but they get hit so much because those kids can't handle fifteen feet of truck! Augh. That's one reason I'm happy I won't be driving our Dodge. It's 16 feet long. And a V10 is really pretty hard to control when you hardly know how to drive.

Yeah, that's true. It'd be a really fun challenge, as long as you don't have to eat the fries. And I take back the cheese and bacon comments - it isn't a fifteen pound burger, haha. My bad.

That honestly sounds horrible to me. A five pound burger, well, that's good. Five pounds of bacon? Awesome. Five pounds of cheese ... Ew. And five pounds of fries? That's like three pounds of solid salt. Eugh.

Liiiiiar. I just don't want you to have one. Even though I don't like that sports look. Liiiiiiiiar. You could buy friends. And grades. My dad found a 95 Lexus (SC), and it looks like we might get it. I wouldn't complain, my brother and mother drive Lexuses and they've never had a single problem. Quality cars right there. We're trying to sell the Dodge RAM I was supposed to get (a 2500, extended cab, V10), because it has more problems than we expected. I hope my dad doesn't try to go cheap on me as he does with, you know, everything else. Because if it breaks down or something, I have to get my own car after that. And I already have to pay insurance and gas, because of course when my parents make more money, the less they give me. (My brother and sister didn't have to pay a thing. My brother got a '99 Firebird/Trans Am and my sister got a nice Mazda) Oh well. Still got a year 'til I'll be driving. Not sure why my dad already wants to get the car.

Who says everyone else hates him? You have five people on an internet forum saying they don't like him. From a picture, nonetheless. Although him holding that cellphone pisses me off. Having a cellphone isn't cool.
