"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
You speak the truth. As for telling a girl she's too young? No girl is too young ;) Im' kidding I say jsut tell her exactly that, she is too young and you need an older woman to call your own. New places to find girls? the thing is, the harder you look, the harder it seems to find one. I usually just trip over them at random. You said take the subway to some place? GREAT idea. Hell, even the subway can be a meeting place. That's how I met one of my latest female friends. I was taking a train to my college to take a placement test, and she happened to be going to do the same thing. Anywhere can be a meeting ground. Just keep your chin up, and your mind ready. [/hide] ]Notice how I said meet new people :wink: To be honest, I've decided not to care about getting a girlfriend or anything, just having fun. I happen to find meeting new people fun, so now me and my friend are going downtown to do random shenanigans. It's definitely going to be fun :thumbup:

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Rpg, to go back to your situation, the only problem with the two girls being friends is if the girl you're interested in holds back from pursuing any of her curiosity in you because she wants to stay loyal to her friend. Unless you tell the one girl "lol no you're fat" or something like that, you can easily let her down softly. Best case scenario you get the girl without hurting feelings. Worst case, no one is hurt, you get into the circle of friends, and you don't get the girl because she isn't interested in you in the first place. Either way, I think you need to be a gentleman and let this girl know that you aren't interested in her so you don't let her be led on. The sooner the better for you. And my problem at the moment is figuring out a good way to tell a girl that she's just too young for me to consider, and finding a good place to meet people. I'm considering just taking the subway downtown by myself or with a friend and just finding stuff to do.

Toy Story 3 Sig Request
Thank you. The text isn't quite what I was looking for, but I think I can fix that my self.

I vote you just flirt with the new girl, and tell the "uninteresting" girl that you don't like her. You're definitely over thinking this one. All you did was flirt with the girl, it's not like you two have gone on a date.

I'm going to disagree with everyone and say that you should do it as soon as possible. Waiting for her to come back, dragging out the relationship for weeks, is just disrespecting her. She'll be away thinking and dreaming that she'll come back to you and everything will be perfect, and then you'll drop the bomb of you two breaking up. If you break up now, she'll have the vacation to recover, maybe even find someone else to fool around with. Think of what's going to happen when she comes back and you break up with her.How are you going to explain your reasons? Are you going to lie to her say it was because she was gone for too long? You can't say you're her friend if you do that. I'd like to know why people think it's better to drag out a break-up.

Toy Story 3 Sig Request
Well quite simply, I just want a Toy Story 3 signature, as the movie series is easily my favourite of them all, and the third would have had me crying if I wasn't holding back, seeing as how it was in public and all (More just that I know my friends would not have let me hear the end of it). For specifics, right now I'm hoping for as many of the main characters as possible, set on a white background, with the words, in the Toy Story font (Or something similar), "Stay young". Characters should take up about 75% of the signature, and depending on how much space is left, the words on either the far left ("Stay" on top of "young"), or on the top-left, above the characters. List of characters: [hide] Woody Buzz Jessie Slinky Mr. & Mrs. Potatohead Slinky Dog Rex Hamm The 3 Martians Bullseye The Sarge Barbie [/hide] Should be similar in style to this, actually, near exactly. [hide] [/hide] If anyone can do this, I will allow you to request any text to be put under the signature for as long as I use the signature (At least 3 months). Also, the gratitude of the kid still inside of me.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Way I can see to end it right now, or be able to go with a summer fling and set up (Prepare her) for a break up when you leave for med school: Just tell her you don't want to start something serious with her because you are leaving for med school at the end of the summer. Whether this means you're breaking up with her, or you want a fling, depends on her interpretation, and she'll interpret it as what she wants. If you think you don't want to try a fling, just tell her that if she suggests it or if she thinks that's what you mean. Also good: It's your last summer before med school so you don't want to be tied down before the no-life that will be med school. As for my situation, someone asked if I think she still has feelings for me? I really don't know. I've always found it very easy to "read" her in some ways, then impossible in others. I doubt that she has feelings for me though. I'm almost thinking that I have feelings for someone else, but I really don't know right now. I've decided to settle on aiming for fun rather than a relationship, but of course my feelings are going to be what dictates that in the end.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I've done that already. That's why I'm still completely uncertain. I go to school with her, we're close friends, we still talk every so often (But we both agree we need to actually talk more). So pretty much the only thing I think I can do is just wait and keep on going like I've been going, or at least plan on going.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
So I have a question, and it might end up requiring a fairly lengthy back story to answer. But to quickly sum up that story, me and this girl (tried) to date about a year ago, and were on-and-off (Mostly off) for about 5-6 months. At one point we were very attached to each other, "love". It ended, both directly and indirectly, because she didn't have time due to her water polo. Now, after this, we stayed very good friends, I dated two other girls. To describe those two relationships, the first one was great, but for me, after a couple months, some how it just wasn't what I wanted. The second one should really have happened, I didn't have much interest in her (And for good reason). Now, after I ended the second one (About a month maybe month and a half ago), I began to consider the possibility that maybe I still have feelings for the girl I dated a year ago. I dismissed this as "remorse for the loss of a feeling" because it was the same time of the year that we had started dating, and quite a few of the events were the same. I'm still in this sort of limbo, where one week I'm sure it's nothing, the other I think there's that possibility. Hell, earlier this day I was thinking about how good it is to be single, being able to flirt with anyone without risk of annoying a girlfriend or being judged by others. Then about a half hour ago, the feelings came back after seeing one line of text. So my question is who thinks that this is the feelings coming back, or the memories of the feelings coming back.

Getting in shape for Wrestling
I agree with this, except for him doing the Beep test as a training exercise. There's a reason it's called a test, it's not meant to be used for training, other than to show progress. Replacing with interval training would be much more beneficial, especially since it would develop all three areas you list there, at once. Power is agility and strength combined, so training just power is the ideal. You focus on agility or strength to adapt to a strategy or make up for a weakness. Interval training, such as 150's or wind sprints, would help him more than the beep test. The beep test will help him with endurance, but that is at a gradually building pace, not in bursts, which is what you need for wrestling. Intervals are beast when it comes to building endurance. This isn't me making this up, this is coming from someone else, who just so happened to be a coach for a Canadian national rugby team. So I'm saying follow what weapons said, but try to throw in 150's whenever you can. [hide] A 150 uses a standard 100 yard field. Start at one end, and then sprint to the other. Turn around (No rest) and sprint to the 50 yard line walk to where you started (50 yard walk). Rest as long as you think you need (I've been advised to wait minimum 35 seconds). Then do it again. Do about 3-4 of these in a set, wait as long as you need between sets. Do 2-4 sets. This is an all out sprint every time. Don't think of the next sprint or the next set, think of completing this sprint as fast as possible. [/hide] Either way, weapon's is right about working on strength, power and agility. You really should talk to your coach about a workout plan.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
That's pretty much exactly my train of thought. It's a little more complicated. We are comfortable going to each others houses, just we haven't been dating for long yet and haven't brought it up with our parents because we both live at home. She added me on facebook because we have a lot of mutual friends. We live just a few miles from each other. But I haven't told my parents that I'm seeing this girl because they haven't been aware of my past relationships and in my opinion it's weird to explain that we met online. I know the right thing to do, it would be to just talk to them about it, but I'm just not comfortable with that. If I felt like it could turn out to be more than a short term summer thing I would eventually bring it up. But right now I feel like I'm back in highschool again. I guess with time I'll figure things out, thanks guys. Having your parents meet your girlfriend after hiding it from them is awkward, it was for me. I had already gone through what I'd call a "serious" relationship before my parents met one of my girlfriends. Just don't worry about, if you dig her, there should be no reason to be afraid of bringing a girl home. So just have her come over, to your parents, she's your "friend". If they don't ask you about your relationships, they don't want to be nosey. If they think you're having sex, there's two possiblities: "The talk", but you're too old, and THEM being all quiet and awkward. So I'd say you're safe.

Mass Effect Thread
Did my first run through after importing my file. Beat it easily on normal as an infiltrator (Assassin cloak class), redid the ending just for the achievement (Just had to switch out one of the team leaders). Right now I'm on my second play through, this time on Insanity still as an infiltrator, and I just finished horizon. I love the assassin's cloak, it makes some enemies so easy. Increased weapon damage, you have all the time to line up shots, and if you need to, find better cover. Incinerate is a pretty sweet ability as well against the Collectors. I find that most of the time both of my teammates end up dying, even for incredibly simple fights. As I don't waste my medi-gel on a basic fight, that means that half the time I'm by myself. That's where the cloak comes in. Wait for them to break cover, use it, they stand still, and you have the perfect chance to line up a shot. Insanity is hard as hell. I'm slightly afraid of krogans because of Garrus' and Moridin's recruitment missions. So what are the different combinations of biotics you guys have found? So far the only thing I've seen is using Warp on an enemy after they've been Pulled/Thrown/Slammed. My favourite is Slam followed by Unstable Warp. Lifts the guy out of cover, then they explode right above their enemy. Doesn't always work, but when it does it works well. Also, I'm disappointed in the heavy weapons. I've yet to find one that I'd use over a regular weapon. In fact, most of the time I just ignore them. The Cain is probably the only thing I'm going to use, maybe even the particle beam if it proves well on most enemies. Is Arc Projector effective against non-tech enemies?

Real life pictures - 4
[hide][/hide] This is what you get when you combine subway rides, camera close-ups, and me laughing at my friend. Awkward half smiles revealing every imperfection on my face. I quite enjoy this picture for some reason, and I really can't say why. Index please , replace A? Also, does anyone know what that mole-like thing on my bottom eyelid is? It's been there for quite some time and I've never actually known what to call it whenever someone asks. Done. :) ~Romy Appreciated.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
If my new girlfriend (more on that below) was not all that into me and realized how unsatisfied with her current situation she was when she started flirting with all the guys she met at a party, I wouldn't blame her. I'd be bummed out, but it wouldn't be anyone's fault. But I'm not even necessarily going to go out with Ana, she just sort of made me wear my real eyes. I'm not a heartless psychopath, I realize I hurt my ex, but the only blame to be pinned on anyone is for my staying with her, and leaving was the only way I could correct it at least a little. You could say that this same thing happened to me about a month and a half ago. I realized that the girl I was dating, I just didn't have feelings for her anymore, so I decided that the best thing to do was break up with her. I now have another girlfriend. Just a general question, how long do you think you need to wait before dating someone else if you initiate the break-up, assuming you want to respect your ex's feelings?

Toy Story 3
Slinky Dog is the only character who is being voiced differently, due to the death of Jim Varney (RIP Ernest). Blake Clark is replacing Varney. So basically, Toy Story 1 & 2 are my favourite movies by far. I will be going to this opening night, no matter what.

The Running Thread
What school do you go to? I'm over at Sir Wilfrid Laruier C.I. Never mind, find you in the standings you posted. You go to Woburn, right? Yup I go to Woburn. Did you run at regionals? If so what events did you do? Nah, I don't run for my school , I would, but rugby gets in the way of track, and football gets in the way of cross country. I was kind of disappointed that Woburn didn't have a Senior rugby team, you guys had a good one last year.

*Diet* questions
There's really no such thing as a "tall person" bike, unless you're something like 7'. I'm 6'3" as well, and a regular bike works perfectly fine for me. Just adjust the seat, on some bikes you can probably adjust the handle bars as well. One thing I can suggest is just to start increasing you physical activity; start doing sprints and more physically demanding activities, go to a public pool and swim there. Also, if we know what exactly you're allergic to, we can help you find foods that you can eat. Although if you really want good diet advice, I'd suggest trying to go to your doctor.

How to drink more water and less bad "Crap"
No, continue, please. Because I'm pretty sure you were just trying to be pretentious and flaunt your nutritional understanding of fat vs. sugar. You said you dont like the comparison, but they arent making a comparison. The commercial doesn't say "Drinking a soda has the same nutritional impact as drinking this huge glass of fat!" They just want to disgust you. So how does this deter you from soda if they aren't comparing soda to fat? The disgust factor is meant to say that it's the same thing as drinking a glass of fat. Yeah, they're throwing in the shock value, but yes, actually, they are trying to say that the nutritional value is similar (It is of course an exaggeration). They're using the commonly held (false) belief that dietary fat = body fat. If this belief didn't exist, they would use something else, and make it disgusting (For instance, if it was meat instead of fat, they might use meat scraps). They are showing the public that high sugar = higher change of weight gain, but they're also telling the public that dietary fat = high chance of weight gain. So they're implicitly supporting the false belief in their attempt to raise awareness for the real issue.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I want to play the "Have you met Ted" (How I Met Your Mother) game with a friend of mine, he being Ted (Not introducing him as Ted though :razz: ). Mostly because my friend is, in all honesty, hot as [bleep], but doesn't have much confidence, and literally no history when it comes to dating. Pretty much everyone who knows him agrees on this as well (The looks part) Basically, I'm wondering if anyone's ever tried. It also seems like a crap load of fun even if it doesn't work. Oh, and tomorrow I find out if rock climbing is a good date idea.

Happy FOUR TWENTY!
This day is just annoying. All you get is a bunch of people making a big deal about being able to smoke "legally"* whereas they'd rarely be charged with possession or use in the first place (At least in Toronto). *I say legally because it is still illegal, it's not like the law is amended for one brief day. These idiots just think it is because cops aren't going to bother going after so many people. Just wondering, does anyone actually know the legal status of marijuana and any associated punishments? I'm actually quite curious about it. It's like my stance on religion, I support the concept, the followers however are my problem.
