Post pictures of your pets here
I sat laughing at Dave for like twelve minutes. The look on his face is priceless. "What the [bleep] do you want."

North Korea launches a rocket
That wouldn't really be a small action. I really doubt North Korea has the balls for that anyways. Although the tangle of alliances would be much different, and we already have a handful of troops over in South Korea. Not to mention there's always at least one supercarrier cruising within eight hours travel of any potentially hostile nation. I think. Heard it on Discovery or the History channel... Anyways, NK would be swarmed from a hundred angles. Remember WWII? Those Japanese are itching to jump out of the grass and slice and/or dice. Or we could go Mercenaries style. And why would world war three require nuclear weapons? You guys are acting like people haven't realized "OH [cabbage] THESE ARE NOT COOL DAWG."

Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...
I always bring my bat and my knife downstairs when I'm home alone. And if I don't have those and I'm already downstairs, if I hear a noise or my dog barks, I grab a couple kitchen knives. If I was a robber, I'd break in just to see that. Bet it's hilarious.

I'd Like My 4th Amendment Back, Please
It's a cultural thing for a guest to bow in much of the world, actually. Obama was probably told that, but it doesn't matter anyways. It was a generally nice thing to do.

More like unfair UN distribution. And since everybody (well, Israelis and Arabs) have historic claim to the land, they should be able to share. But they're unable and unwilling to share a pretty crappy little area. Why couldn't the holy land be somewhere nice, with plenty of room? Whatever. And I don't get where people in staked-out nations get off, calling all that finders keepers or whatever. What about England? Ripped between plenty of civilizations. America? Same. It's just that we have big armies and fluff ourselves up with them. Recruitment, yes. But there are a handful of crazies that won't be talked to, and will pretty much try to kill everyone they can. These guys won't be helped but for a bullet in the brain. A difficult situation, because on the whole diplomacy would be better, but a lot of the dangerous ones are too greedy and self-serving to allow for anything for the greater good. I just don't think that someone who won't be talked to, like many of the leaders of the Taliban, should be worth more than a few bullets. But, of course, it isn't as simple of that. If only.

Today...
I went and bought a bottle of Jack Daniel's today. I wasn't even carded. It made me laugh because I was doing it for Easter this weekend, and my dad dared me to. Pretty dang funny. I know I look older than fourteen, but twenty one? Ha. Oh well. Isn't the drinking age in Belgium 14? Whaaaatever. I just thought it was funny. Be an even funnier story when all my cousins are drinking up.

What do you think will happen to us?
If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon If you believe there's nothing up my sleeve, then nothing is cool It'll be a while. There'll be a rush for moon, Mars, Europa and whatnot colonization. We'll build orbital cities. Floating cities. Urban sprawls. Most of Canada is uninhabited. Seriously not that hard of a problem to consider, we have science fiction bros and broettes. And science fiction is loosely based on science.

The Metric System
I know both generally. But I like our quirky, illogical system. It's interesting. Conforming to the man of metrics is so conformist, bro. So should we? Probably. Will we? Doubt it.

North Korea launches a rocket
It might be ridiculous to you. But I'm sure there's somebody that was saved by an American soldier. But, of course, there's probably somebody out there that feels wronged by America.

I'd Like My 4th Amendment Back, Please
While I don't have anything to hide, there's a limit. Maybe if someone is strongly suspected, with plenty of evidence, sure ... But in general I would say no. But, I can always plead the fifth. Hearts and minds, yes. But there are some people that might need a gun to stop. Can you actually say you believe any diplomatic relations with certain individuals (or some nations) would work? I vote sharing. It's a holy land for three religions. At least for Jerusalem, get a nonbiased group of warriors like the Swiss Guard to, well, guard, and have some sort of congress of Muslim, Jew, and Christian leaders governing. Or we could give everybody casinos. Worked for my people :thumbup:

Man, it's gonna be released right in the middle of my trip in summer. Won't be able to play it until July. Oh well, I won't be able to play anything until then anyways.

North Korea launches a rocket
the UN, when they decided to never hold anyone to international law Aaah, I wanted to make that joke. On another note. How is this anything like world war two? If that's so, I'm clearly Abraham Lincoln. I grow facial hair. I've chopped wood. I have a hat and a suit. OH MY GOD THE CONNECTIONS TIME TO FREE THE SLAVES GUYS! You're also forgetting the, I don't know, millions of differences between now and world war two's time? Besides, you need to learn your history. The US didn't enter the war for about three and a half years. Yeesh, you guys would probably have a lot of people listening to you, but now diplomacy is at a relatively high point.

There's a reason why most people find them parables. But, I guess it isn't a terrible source to sorta see what life was like in 0th-century Palestine and Israel.

Mount & Blade: You conquer castles and stuff!
Aw my lords are [bleep]s. I sent them off the warpath for a few days to stock up armies and store prisoners, and they totally abandoned me and my 52-person party when Lord Meltor's 200-man army showed up. I lost one Swadian knight, lawl. But his troops were almost completely recruits, too. It was wierd.

This game sounds like a ridiculous gorefest. And I must have it. Solely for the reason that I've always wanted to kill a helicopter with a person in GTA IV.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
The way of the Man is to try and avoid the friend zone entirely. Try a leather jacket or motorcycle. No matter how nice you are, with those two items, you have a 75% drop in friend zonings. But, really, it's kinda hard to explain. You guys are just too nice. But we're all young, and it doesn't matter so much. But you should take a lesson from T.I. or someone.

Is God real post your thoughts!
I have my beliefs, you have yours. God is a reality to me just as much as He isn't to you. I like my beliefs, and while it's clear I'm in the minority here in this vogue of rabid conversion atheism on these boards, I'm sticking to them. Old Testament: Between 8,000 and 4,000 BC. New Testament, from 300 BC to 700 AD or so. There's a reason why there's a Book of Romans, Luke, whatever.

So you could defend your personal beliefs against people up to ten years older than you who've pretty much found what they like, not to mention rabidly attack beliefs that they find ridiculous (I find it stupid too, but you'd find a similar answer from a five-year old) ... When you were twelve? It isn't like people are taking him seriously, you're demolishing him. But, now that I know he's about as old as me, I can destroy him too. Need a team change button, because he's old enough to learn not to take dogma so ... dogmatically. So, I'm pretty much done. Not my fault he has less formulated beliefs than my eight year old cousin. Well, it naturally occurs for the most part, as all sexuality and fetishes, whatever, does. If you mean it's kinda wierd, I think so as well, but I guess they think we're wierd. That's why they're commonly referred to as queers. It wasn't exactly derogative, just a word for wierd that got rolled up as always.

SAT and ACT
I'd probably expect something like that on them. I hate math, haha. EDIT: Yeah, I might try to take the subject tests when I take the SAT (I think) next year. I'll probably take the ACT anyways if I take any AP courses these coming few years, so I can have both I guess. Whichever does better I'll send in.

Morals > Rules?
An interesting dilemma. What is a rule but a moral a lot of people hold true or logical? Rules were made to be broken, of course. And people all have different morals, so it isn't like either of them are inflexible. This is somewhat a philosophical question, I see it. Pretty difficult because it has no real answer. We people like to put titles and rules on things. We try to dress our universe up like a little dog at a party. But the dog is actually a bear, while we're fleas on the bear's [wagon]. Still, dressing up the bear is the only way we can comprehend and understand it in our not-so-humble little way. I do like metaphors.

Chill the [bleep] out guys, seriously. He's like twelve, he has no idea about his own beliefs. I formed my own beliefs less than a year ago, plus they're still evolving and changing constantly. If you can find me a twelve year old who has fully found their own beliefs, can explain them enough to satisfy themselves, monkeys will fly out of my [wagon]. I don't think there's a single person here who can do that. He might be broadcasting his ignorance, but plenty of adults do it on a larger level.

Mount & Blade: You conquer castles and stuff!
Probably ten bucks from Steam if they have another sale soon. Shame on you for thinking this game is only worthy of five dollars. Anyways, I'm rebelling against Swadia. We aren't doing too bad, considering those damn Khergits keep besieging our castles. [wagon] faces always get beat. But is it a better strategy to bring my eight or so lords hacking and smashing just all around? Or keep them guarding strategic areas? Because we're just cutting a swathe through Swadia.
