Baller, you should buy a van.

 

You should paint in in tye-dye.

 

You should write "Mystery Machine" on it.

 

You should grab all of your friends and go on a roadtrip.

 

You should reach the edge of a cliff.

 

You should put a brick on the gas, so that it drives off the cliff. (Can be achieved by leavinbg door open and hopping out.)

 

You should watch the explosion.

 

You should avoid the cops.

 

 

 

 

Oh, and this is what you should use the rest of the inheritence money for.

 

Or have medevial armor smithed for you, then have a massive medieval battle with wooden weapons (which you should have carved for you).

 

Cool armors:

Chainmail (duh)

Oriental plated armor

(I'm not recommending plate armor, as is even more expensive than the other two.)

 

Cool Weapons:

Halberd

Billhook

Ballista

Chinese Repeating Crossbow (Dear God, yes!)

Trebuchet

 

 

 

If you do stage this battle, take pics.

The only difference between Hitler and the man next door who comes home and beats his kids every day is circumstance. The intent is the same-- to harm others.

I told her there was a secret method to doing it - and there is - but my once nimble and agile fingers were unable to perform because I was under the influence.

I would laugh, not hate. I'm a male. :(

Since when was Ireland an island...? :wall:

I actually have a hobby of licking public toilet seats.

How would I go about learning to play guitar if I have no musical talent whatsoever?

 

You just need a guitar and some dedication. I think some guitar players like to keep this secret, but all it takes is practice. Really. Anyone can learn to play guitar to an intermediate sort of level if they are dedicated enough. The internet is an unbelievable resource.

I agree. Starting guitar can be very frustrating because you'll probably sound like [cabbage] and you'll rage because you can't do what you want to do. Practise. But don't make it a chore, guitar playing should be fun. :P

 

It would help to get lessons but it's really not needed, you learn more at home.

 

Are you planning on playing electric or classical?

Getting good at guitar is really easy. Once you get past the whole beginner's hump and get to know your way around the guitar, the only difference between you and Yngwie Malmsteen is hours of practice.

 

Also, LEARN MUSIC THEORY!!!!:

EDIT: ... Ten guitars? O.O

My dad's been playing guitar for like 30 years. And my sister has one and my grandpa gave us his old one. I think there's only 8 actually.

You should get help from your dad :P

 

If you wanna learn classical, start learning how to read notes.

http://datadragon.co...cation/reading/

 

If you don't want to learn how to read notes.. learn how to read tab - It's easier to find tabs than musical score online.

http://www.howtotune...ead-guitar-tab/

 

A website with guitar tabs that lots of people use

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com

I recommend downloading PowerTab because you can hear what the music you want to learn sounds like and you can play along to it.

Or 'buy' Guitar Pro (better version of Power tab)

 

If you want to learn how to play classical songs without learning how to read notes... (use tab instead)

http://www.classtab.org/

 

A small tuner that you can download to your computer (requires microphone but can tune other instruments) is AP Tuner.

http://www.aptuner.com/

 

There are some lessons on ultimate guitar that are also helpful for beginners.

On the same topic, I'm interested in classic guitar, and I can already read music. Where can I get good scores online?

Hrm. I don't know any specific websites but generally what I do is find the name of a classical song I like and search for pdfs. Sorry I can't be of much help.. A google search is really good. Just be specific (e.g "free pdf music score *insert name here*). Another way you can get score is if you have powertab/guitar pro - I know on guitar pro that there's an option to hide the tab so you're left with score. :S

 

My friend asked me a question:

 

you know those little picket kinda house thingys?

do you know what they're called

and inside in movies people always dance in them

and they have steps leading up

http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/warner_brothers/a_cinderella_story/_group_photos/chad_michael_murray10.jpg

 

Does anyone know the name of it? I'm stuck. xD

I know what she means, that.. house that appears in every cheesy movie that has a ball, the two people in love go there and kiss. *rolls eyes*

Ohhhh yes! That's the one! Thankyou.

We'll sneak out while they sleep

And sail off in the night.

We'll come clean and start over the rest of our lives.

When we're gone, we'll stay gone.

Out of sight, out of mind.

It's not too late,

We have the rest of our lives.

I turned 16 like a week ago and I don't have my temps which is quite pathetic. Is the temps test hard? I'm just going to look over the main points in the book tonight and tomorrow moning then I'm just going for it tomorrow. Am I [bleep]ed or are the questions common sense?

All common sense except for fines and restrictions. Look over those.

I pretty much agree with this. Make sure you look at parking distances (not sure if it was on the test, its on some.)

There is this three-year college I can go to and get my Bachelors in Computer Science. The cost will be around $30,000.00. This college is not well known as of now, but it is one of two colleges in my state which offer a doctorate in pharmacy technician.

 

The other college i want to go to is a well-known four-year which will cost me about 40 grand.

 

 

Which college would be better? I know some companies only hire those who have a degree from a well known college, but I do not have a lot of money.

Not really much to go on, so it's difficult to tell, but I would be wary of accepting or receiving advice about colleges from Off-Topic (online forums in general, really). Don't be scared about your last statement. If two applicants are equal in distinguishable characteristics a place of employment might base their decision off of your place of education but plenty of other things are more important.

For most of my life, I have been kind of anti-social. This isn't because I wanted to, but because people kind of avoided me at all costs :/ I spent the majority of my life up to and including now sitting inside playing video games and stuff... always alone... This is still how I am, but there has been a slight change during the last few months. People started acknowledging my existance out of nowhere. I'm not "popular", and I don't really care about that. I don't know what happened, but I am no longer the guy that you have to avoid at all costs =o I no longer eat lunch by myself, there are a few people (on the bottom of the social ladder like me, but people nonetheless =D) That associate with me now. I've never seen any of them outside of school (mostly because I don't go outsid =p), so I don't really consider them friends/mates. I know now that, at the very least, everybody doesn't hate me like I thought. I know I won't be "normal" during the next two years of high school, that is, interacting wtih people outside of school, but I'm okay with that. Everybody in my school at least knows who I am (I think), and probably don't want to be seen with me. I'm just wondering what I should do to try to be more social now that I know that I'm not the anti-everything. I was planning on waiting until I started college/uni to become "normal", but I've already wasted the first 17 years of my life ._. And advice on what I should do?I haven't gotten nearly enough sleep this week, so I'm sorry if what I'm saying doesn't make sence =P

I have alot of guitars around my house.

 

I have an acoustic, and a les paul, my brother has a 12 string acoustic, normal acoustic, 2 electrics, my dad has an acoustic and a 12 string acoustic, and if they count, 2 of the smaller NOVA guitars. So 10 altogether.

 

Unspam: I need a good song to do a drum cover. I'm working on a bomb track cover, but I'd like one for when I finish. Any suggestions?

I might get killed for suggesting Avenged Sevenfold songs.. Bat Country and Beast and the Harlot. -shrug- Dunno if they have any other songs with nice drumming. :lol: And to be honest I know nothing about drums, but I thought it sounded cool. Hah.
