Compulsory subjects at school > your thoughts?
I and many others excell at english, yet don't see a point in it being mandatory, seeing most of the stuff is irrelivent anyways (tell me where in programming or photo/video editing, the jobs I want to do, will you need to know how to analise poems and photos, or even to write an essay). Infact, the only reason I haven't left the top english class to go the bottomw is because most of my friends are in the higher classes. I mean I could understand maths or IST due to the world today, but not english but (atleast in Aus) you need to do atleast 12 units of work for yr 11, but can drop down to 10 in yr 12. Not only that but some classes only have 1 unit, which means you would need to do more subjects to get the req. 12 (it also means if you do 4 units maths or english you get the most free periods a week, but it is alot harder)

Meat lovers vs. Vegetarians
while I love my meat and eat it for every meal I eat =P~ I dislike the methods being used in the slaughterhouses and such. I would much rather own me own cows and hunt and eat them, then buying slaughtered cows. As it stands though it doesn't happen much these days, and I couldn't stand cutting up the animals :-X as long as I don't cut it up I'd eat it though :

Compulsory subjects at school > your thoughts?
I don't think english should be compulsary either, I mean what I am doing now is rediculous, mainly because of the was they expect us to think, yet I seem to think things differently, so I fail with creative thinking, yet excell at problem solving

loyal or go with the flow?
same as me. there are a few nerds im friends with but im friends with a lot of "cool people" too. i think the 'cool people' think im a nerd and the 'nerds' think im a 'cool person' in a friendly way. the 'cool people' always joke with me about me being a nerd. if there's some big math problem or something its "whats the answer to that you nerd?", there only joking around though. lol same I joke back if someone asks if I like being a nerd by saying "want me to still do your ? then stop asking me that"

loyal or go with the flow?
I hate it when that happens, I usually will stick up for the 1 guy, unless the others are ALL better friends
-
loyal or go with the flow?
So Tip.it, are you a loyal friend who always has your friends back? or are you more likely to stab your friends back to go with the flow of others, or because you want something? I am more of a loyal person myself, get ripped off because I'm still friends with the 'uncool' people

is Grammar Really important?
I have found grammer to be very important, too many times have I gotten confused/angry because of lack of grammer because of the way it seems to sound (internet is great place to have your meaning misinterprated (sp?) )

Another parent problem thread - i need help.
I still say talk with them about what is happening, and ask if they wouldn't mind you staying with them, and tell them if they don't want to they don't have to (try and help out alot and they will probably prefer you staying) if not I'm sure there are many people who would take you in. Now I'm not sure about where you live, but I know is Australia teens not living with their parents and are who are still in school get some money from the government (my friend gets something like $400AUS a fortnight) and I'm sure the government where you live will have something like that, so use it to still pay for stuff, like atleast rent, school, food, that sort of thing.

I'm Sleeping TOO Much :(
try setting an alarm for 5 or so minutes earlier from when you normally wake up, but try and get it to be a song if possible, then every week or so put it 5 mins earlier, making sure it's the same song every time, soon you will automatically wake whenever you hear that song (it's what I do, Through The Fire and Flames gets me up no matter what : and when I'm awake it makes me that little bit more awake and alert :D

~Whats Your 360 Gamer Tag?~
dad says he is sick of the xbox being on the big tv, and coz the back room tv is in an awkward spot I may be getting my own tv, and if it and the laptop I'm getting have VGA support, it will have a 2nd function as a 2nd screen for the laptop, but I will almost certainly have to pay back, which I'm cool about, with petrol prices so high I'll just use the family car, and the almost unused van, rather then paying too much for my own car + expenses sounds fun! best part is we can do it anytime, as I have the map and rules saved on my HDD would just take a bit of organising, due to time differences Saturday night. 10pm Gmt viewtopic.php?f=151&t=745817 *slap* you know I hate Sat nights, because it's awkward for me

Another parent problem thread - i need help.
Your parents sound horrible tbh. Not to be offensive, but everything you told us can scar any child for life. I would seriously suggest talking to a close relative, and if that doesn't get immediate help, I would call the authorities. You might be moved out of your house, and your brother too, but it would probably be for the best. If there is a relative that you are comfortable around, and you think they would accept you into their home, I would suggest trying to move in with them. You could also try to find that substance again, and put a little in a plastic bag and hide it for later, to find out if it is anything by having it tested. Thanks, i searched for it earlier, but I havnt been able to find it, my parents may have used it, if it were to be an illegal drug, instead of going to the authorities, i'd be more than delighted to blackmail them instead. The only decent relative that lives near to me is my grandma, but i'd rather not make her day miserable by complaining about stuff to her. is your grandma really nice to you? if she is then maybe you could talk with her, and there should be no reason why you can't live with her plus your grandparents (assuming your granddad is still alive) would love to spend more time with their grandson(s) (if your brother moves with you, hopefully you can work something out : ) trust me grandparents do everything with "a dash of love"

The Buttered Cat
Great idea...only one problem...how the hell do you weld a nonmetal object to a metal pole? And wouldn't the pole like allow the cat to land sideways or something where the cat just kind of walks away with a pole/cat on its back? Seems like the pole would cause interference. What needs to happen is to get conjoined cats who are attached at the exact center of their backs. No pole, no "welding", no problem. ya but how do you get energy from the cats? with my plan they will be spinning the pole which we could hook up to turbines for energy! :D

Is God real post your thoughts!
I don't call Atheists evil, misguided maybe, but not evil. Not only that but there was a while where I was not a christian and none of things appealed to me, drugs for example are addictive, and I have seen people who are dug addicts, I've seen alcoholics, and I doo not want to be like them, they are destroying their own lives and the lives of their family and friends. I have never seen this video, nor do I want to. I can't explain why this person did it, and I hope they asked for forgiveness because that was really stupid, and I won't deny him being christian, but he made a mistake, we all do (especially me :wall: ) and I never said being Christain makes you good by default, it doesn't, that's the simple truth, but if you are living as a true Christian than you should be a 'good' person. :roll: stupid stereotypes visited my church before? no? well then stop saying my church potrays Atheists as evil, infact we need more in our church..... Yeah; he's gonna have a hard time making any reasonable counter-argument for that. Should be interesting :). yes I do hope it is interesting :) it isn't justified, I would rather nobody suffer, the things I have seen I never want to see inflicted on anybody, even those who treat me the worst

What are your flaws?
sometimes I feel [development delayed] socially, and mentally I find it almost impossible to do pushups on my toes, yet I can carry heavy objects :wall: will often think of what I should have said and keep analizing certain things said to me (like a spent half a week thinking what the girl I like meant by "my life's purpose is not to serv you... yet" turns out she was joking :cry: )
