This thread is stupid. it is filled with: 1. people trying to show off / people with superiority complexes (thank you max) / people sucking up to each other 2. idiots i read five and a half pages of utter crap, and my responses to most of the posts were... who the [bleep] cares? And that response went to people defending emo Why? Am i a stereotyping bigot? maybe i'm preppy and hate people different from me. Maybe i'm emo, trying to get attention (ahahaa). Or maybe im a an idiotic troll. Yes, i have a feeling already that i'll becalled that. But it seems to me regardless of what i say or what i am (the latter of which shouldn't even matter) no one will acknowledge truths (and by truths, i mean things that actually happen. some people should go outside more often.) because said reader is one of the two types of people i listed earlier. Or both. Maybe none, but im not one to ask and care. Anyways, back on track. I dont know where emo came from. Nor do i claim to be an expert on emos, or any other "social group", because 1. you dont care (in fact, no one does. so i won't bother), 2. i don't care so much about someone else's style that i want to know them, and 3. i forget but im sure theres a third reason. Ok. Here are some of those "truths" i have gathered from just observation, or overhearing some people. I'm no psychologist. Just a bystander, per se. Ok. 1. Emo kids are labeled cutters because they advertise it. most don't cut. those who do cut because it makes them more emo. Don't even try to compare this to people who cut because they are depressed. 2. Emo kids say they're emo because they don't want to be with the other crowd (the only people i see argue against this are people who are emo themselves) 2.1 and so they form their own crowd. Irony, yes 2.2 tools, much? 3. Emo guys wear tight pants because they think it makes them look different. Not sexy. The hair is for sexy. You know, covered eyes, draping hair for the "mysterious" look. funny story: friend (male) dresses semi emo, not on purpose. Wears his only pair of tight jeans. Black shirt (i forget what was on it). Hasn't cut his hair, so it was too long to gel, so he lets it droop in the front (his mom cuts it). We go to the mall with other people, get split up, we find him again laughing. Supposedly, he went to hot topic to get some anime thing in the back for his little sister's birthday (which is why we had split up earlier) and a flock of emo kids went up to him and criticized his emoness (or lack thereof). He said one girl said he would look hotter if he had grown his hair longer, but he probably made that up :D :D :D 4. Emo kids are actually happy. Because they can afford to buy all their [cabbage] at hot topic at their ridiculous prices. And their ipods (preferably black). But the happy draws less attention then sad. And the sad works with their "mysterious" look. 5. Emo kids listen to their music because no one has heard of them, or because it fits into the emo genre. And this is an issue with peeps on this forum too. For some reason, people think listening to bands no one has ever heard of makes them different. Conversation with an emo kid i got paired up with in class (we had finished work early): (he started) What do you listen to? Me: _____ (irrelevant) Him: Yea well i like ____ (band no one has ever heard of) Me: Thats nice Him: (goes on to list other bands) Me: (i had just met him, so i tried to be nice) So I didn't even ask him. Wtf. And then you look on these forums, the "favorite bands" threads or "whats your fav song" and you see some good songs, some original songs, and then... some kid listing 10 fav songs, with 10 diff bands, all of which have never existed to you up till that moment. Followed by "yea omg this stuff is great" as if someone cared. /end So what does this all mean? In case you didn't notice (or in case i didn't mention it), all five of those, stereotypes you would call them, people do because emo kids think it draws attention. So why do people hate emo kids? Because no one cares. But yet they persist. The best summary of the emo outlook would be #5, since it goes a little beyond that. They advertise their lifestyle, mentioning, literally, at every moment they can, some aspect of their life that is different and unique and (sometimes) how we are all tools (irony, again). And every time they do so, it is followed by the listener with the reaction "i don't care", whether it be expressed verbally, or by walking away as to never hear them talk ever, ever again, or by booking said emo the "avoid this kid" section of the mind (most common, as it is the most courteous. But probably the worst for them, since it doesn't help them realize it) Oh god this post isn't over yet But its not that bad. I actually typed up a rl example, but i figured it was too long (which it was) so i cut it out and skipped to this: Not-truths about emo 1. goths are not emo. big difference there 2. emos are not depressed. its the look that makes them seem it. see truth #4. striker6 posted truthery, calling an emo depressed is an insult to anyone actual clinically depressed person. No one ever chooses to be depressed. 3. Emos can't back their attitude. Most learn pretty quickly that their facade breaks under pressure i.e. i dont know this kid, but i was standing in line to get a bottle of water in the morning (no loose change for machines -_-) and one emo kid cuts in front of another emo kid. Near the back the gansters (not gangstas, as you will see) notice and call him out. Emo kid gives attitude (gansta (again, not gansta) remarks), needs teachers to save his hide fifteen seconds later. Line shortens real fast, and i get water. 4. Being emo does not make you unique. I think plenty of people have already addressed this, but just in case you didn't notice, you're just another tool. Alrite, thats all. Since i posted, i must be one of the two type of people i listed. So i guess i'll be number 2. Cuz i'd really would perfer that over #1 anyday. And for those who think i speak nonsense, ok, you tool

I actually lol'd pretty hard when i read that...

anyone else having trouble opening doors past the first time? You shoot, breaking the shield... then you wait. 10 seconds later it opens. Really annoying

Its almost equivalent to slaves working for our chocolate. These are just people trying to not die. Literally. You take it like they purposely farm gold to make your life, playing runescape, harder. They have no economic freedom. Ever been to china? Its not like they can pick up any job when you're competing for even the lowest rages. If you're going to hate anyone, hate their bosses.

guys, school sucks major [wagon] :(

Your logic fails due to the fact that apple holds most of the player market right now and just look at LP's post. And in case you didn't know, people use ipods for more than music p.s. i have never owned an apple product

Dayum, 160gb. Its a freaking hard drive that fits in your pocket The new nano, the little fat thing... it'd look better if it were in the portrait shape. Its so... square and fat. like the creative zen v... i've never owned an ipod, but with my experience with many other mp3 players... ipod is the easiest to use. They... work.

Go record the exp and time it takes to do three or so runs. Convert that into xp/hour. Determine the amount of xp you have left, then divide that amount of xp by your xp/hour rate for the # of hours

don't worry i was just kidding, im the guy with the zammy book

I've always followed the whoever-in-the-room policy. But I've seen both sides Last summer i went with three other people to DK's - nothing good, until a friend had to tele because he almost died. Afterwards, we got enough drops for 5m split between three, yes, we started with four, split. The other member that lost out was mad, and i felt really, really bad, but he also followed the room-in-policy, and since i got none of those drops, i could not offer him any shares, nor did he get any shares at all. But I've been on the other end of the stick. A few days ago i went with Time and Fast to the Armadyl boss, and teleported on the second to last kill when he was almost redbarred. The final kill right afterwards was armadyl legs, but i was not in the room, and i did not get a share. But i didn't mind, since we all (tacitly) follow the policy Ive always honored the room policy. Theres nothing I can really do unless the other teammates decide to offer a share, but thats not in my control. It simply can't be helped if someone has to leave early, but a policy is a policy. the only way around this is to get the split policy clear between all members before the actual drops take place

haxer you have two protection prayers on at once

Dude. your last five sentences went right over my head i have a router. its... 4 years old? It randomly drops my wireless, which includes this comp, in my room, and my sister's laptop. never figured out why...

dude YOUR BANNER IS HUGEMUNGOUS

they didn't need to "confirm" the ancient mace. The pendent was the only problem, since ppl couldn't get it back

gp spawns, which only spawn 1 coin, are also plural

its not a "high level tactic", its prettymuch the same thing that happens with barrows. Or any other monster. The diff would be, i guess, the generals attacking you

cut your hair yourself i literally just did 18 minutes ago. it looks fine, except i can't reach the back. i'll ask my sister to help me later...

i was considering goin to sara with my bro and friend how hard was it? We went in with 5 people, amongst wich 3 120+ers and we had to leave after 2 kills. The boss casts some sort of temporary imunity spell and uses a lightning strike on you. She's also very fast. I tried to solo her. I vidded it. I'll upload it tomorrow I went down so fast, she hit faster than i could eat. Needless to say, i died

wow that is crippling...

they are always aggrssive no matter what

Soloing drag chain, then selling for 12m. the next day, kq gets her range update. drag chain shoots up 20m based on a very true story edit: getting to GWD, getting a 40kc, then relizing you don't have a grapple/hammer

No more going back to bank because you forgot your key :D i love it
