No double spacing? How odd. My high school uses the MLA Formatting and Style Guide. Do you know if your school uses a formal, universal style guide? Or is it just your teacher's policy?

Ahahahaha. I just have the math today. I had a completely pointless week so far at the expense of sophomores like you. I thank you. Standardized Testing in the US ? A functioning [i'm not fully sure] education system ? THE US IS FALLING APART !!! I had another godamn practical examination today, in the lab ... Yes, in the USA (California at least) we have have standardized testing. In CA, we have Standardized Testing and Reporting, otherwise known as the "STAR test". We take them every year from second grade to twelfth grade (roughly 8 years old to 18 years old). Which tests you must take usually vary year-to-year, although you usually must always take at least a language standards test and a math standards test. According to all teacher that I've had, colleges don't pay very much attention to your STAR test scores but the scores affect how much funding your school gets, so most people try their best. My high school finished our STAR testing this week. We tested for half the day for four days: last Thursday and Friday, and this week's Tuesday and Wednesday. I had to take a language test, a math test (Algebra II), a chemistry test, a biology test, and a history test. They all seemed very easy to me. The real testing now begins for me: the Chemistry AP test. So, today and for the next week and a half, I will do a lot of studying.

1. I procrastinate too much. 2. I don't keep promises to myself. 3. I have a hard time preventing study sessions with my hot Asian girlfriend from turning into make-out sessions. Good or bad, depending on how you look at it.

Tintin was actually published from 1929-1983. Tintin is amazing and ageless for the fact that it can still be enjoyed 80 years after original publication . [yt]34Sb0hGUNIQ[/yt] Life is like a hurricane...

What kind of government would it be? What would be the first thing you did? What adjustments would you make to your country? I would turn my country into a supreme dictatorship and make my people worship me. Kind of like North Korea. Then I would produce a powerful military. And get nuclear weapons. (Like North Korea.) Once my military is established, I would invest all of my (the country's) money into science and health care, to develop a way to live forever. If it is transplanting brains into new bodies or some other way where you achieve immortality, I don't mind. Once I am immortal, even if I am conquered or captured I can always come back. Once immortal, I will also have an infinitely long time to develop further beneficial technologies. Basically, more super powers. So yeah, if I was master of my own country, I would try to become an unstoppable superhero. And then once I was a superhero I would use my powers to improve the lives of everyone.

Granted, you used past tense instead of subjunctive (correct="I wish I were God."). Therefore, you used to be God but no longer are or ever will be :mrgreen: . I wish that I do not have to go to school on Monday.

I play the Halo 1 trial, mostly because not even Counterstrike 1.6 will run on my computer well enough to dominate (I'm pretty good at it if I may say so myself ;) ).

I hypothesize that the British way of naming floors of a building is based on the fact that if a "floor" or "story" = 10 feet, then when you are on the "first floor" (2nd American floor) you are 1 "floor" (~10 feet) above the group. Basically, the distance between two levels of a building is the "story" and not the floor (that part you walk on) of each level. As for the metric system, I am split about converting to it. On one hand, the metric system is a better system for many reasons. On the other hand, it would be difficult for people to adjust. I suggest a slow change over to the metric system, starting with printing both metric units and US customary (or for Brits UK imperial) units on signs/bottles/anything with units on them and then eventually getting rid of the customary/imperial units. It should be noted that many US customary (and UK imperial also, I believe) units are now defined according to SI units. For example, one inch is now defined as exactly 25.4 millimeters. The pound (mass) is defined as exactly 453.59237 grams.

How about we add a question to the OP: In addition, what is the worst pain you've ever inflicted on someone else? And perhaps let's add the worst emotional pain ever inflicted on you and worst emotional pain you've ever inflicted on someone else.

That is [bleep] stupid. It is a rule, whenever a guy see's another guy with his legs open, he kicks him hard. That is manlaw. It's totally a manlaw to never kick another guy in the nuts because you know how much it hurts. [bleep] that [cabbage]. How else am I supposed to win a fight I start without bruises? I suggest that you do not start fights and instead try to work out your problems by talking with people like your mommy told you to. And if someone does start a fight with you, run away or go Gandhi on their [wagon]. Any sane person in their right mind should not fight you, though, if you do not also fight. I mean: people won't get worked up enough to take a swing at you if you do not do the same. So stay calm and you stay safe. (Unless a person is drunk or mentally insane, in which case go ahead and kick them in the balls and hopefully you will pacify them enough to run away.) On the topic of the thread, the worst pain that I've felt was the many times that one gets kicked/hit in the balls accidentally or on purpose. The worst pain that I've caused was probably the same thing, accidentally and on purpose. I've absolved not to hurt anyone ever again, though.
