Random Thought Thread (RTT) 39

So, we start off with the topic of Kokkuri's life?
Or something else?

Let's talk about how my cult leader keeps a masturbation diary.
Basically, he wrote the time stamp, imaginary target, and how many times he do it.

>>2 That assumes he doesn't use pornography, which he has stated several times that he does.

>>3
Can't watch porn in school toilet.

Therefore we can deduce that it's a combination of both.

>>5 Indeed. *takes a puff of an old hickory pipe*

Everytime I go to the vet all the nurses and staff ooh and ah over my cat's coat. My cat though now has been fully vaccinated. (^-^)b

Asked someone out today. She said she wasn't looking for anything serious right now, which is entirely understandable, being so close to graduation. She still gave me her number, but its clear we're just gonna be friends. Eh, s'whatever.

>>8 Try and fail? Try again, fail better.

So I moved some money around and now I am aupporting 7 creators on Patreon instead of just 3. Patreon is just easier to deal with than all that tapas tipping.
I got a phone emulater on my desktop so I could get the app and tip via desktop, but then half the ads won't even play and it freaks out the app. :/
If I ever get some ads to load I'll tip to the creators I'm not supporting, but as it is I guess it'll be fine. I can't give money to everyone.

My history teacher did the coolest impressions of JFK and Nixon today. He's really good at them. Just another reason for me to love him. <3 <3 <3

He actually started ranting to us about safe spaces today. It was so funny. "Millennials are the most whiny generation since the 60s. 'Oh, no, my candidate didn't win, I need a week off from school.' While there's people who don't even have a roof over there heads. Give me a break. That kids is what I call first-world-problems."

In other academic news, 4.5 GPA currently and that's rad. That means my cumulative GPA is a 4.1 =)

A new thread already, well then.

>>11 Welcome back!

I'm starting to realise my addiction for reading some really good fanfics.

>>14 I stay clear away from fanfics like they are the plague. I've only ever read a few KaitoxShinichi ones. They just made me depressed that they weren't canon.

>>1 much dissapoint, very topic.

My lecturer in his youth convinced his pals to smoke, and also have 'shrooms. Best lecturer ever.

Apparently he took shrooms' once with his best friend at night in a park.

"So the pigeons and ducks were so confused about two clueless dudes here at a park in the middle of the night right? SOooooooo the pigeon comes over to us first and asks for bread and my friend says "Na m8 sorry we've got none".

And then comes the duck and asks us for the same thing, I responded, "Pal didn't you hear what we just told that pigeon over there?"

To which the duck replies, "yeah sorry I don't speak pigeon"..."

Tldr? My lecturer has a funny mind.

>>14 >>15
Alternatively, you can make >>2 to >>5 into a fanfic.

>>8
Friendzoned. Time for some vodka?

>>9 Yeah, maybe later. Like, after I graduate and move on to somewhere else. In hindsight, its kinda dumb to ask people out this late in the semester as a senior, especially if you know theres a good chance you'll be moving away after graduating.
>>17 Drinking doesn't help for shit. But, uh, thanks? I think?
Anyway, how are all you guys?

>>18
I've heard cases where drinking actually eliminates stress. It's written on reddit, so it must be true.

>>18 Well, my kid(cat) got his shot. He behaved himself very well for the nurses and doctors so I'm a happy mom.
I think I'm going to try and convince ma mere to go to this museum with me, but I'm not sure she'll agree because it's cold af outside for some inane reason. Yarn exhibits though.
I baked chocolate chip cookies last night. They're pretty tasty, albeit a bit flat...
If the museum doesn't pan out I'm just gonna try to do some homework or work on something.
I'm doing okay I guess.

So this is my current game on Hearts of Iron IV.

I started as Turkey, and reformed the Ottoman Empire, then invaded Iraq. I formed the Central Powers with Austria-Hungary, a Fascist alliance, and became opposed to Germany and Italy's Axis.

Then an Officer revolt in Russia deposed Stalin, and Russia joined the Axis. Italy began to try and force neutrality in the Balkans so that nobody would go to war with them over Greece.

When WWII broke out, Italians ran into Turkish soldiers in Greece. I went to war against the Axis, with the Allies, and Austria invaded Italy while I invaded Libya. Germany fell to France, as did Spain (who joined the Axis), and now Russia is being attacked in the Baltic by Canada/UK/Netherland/America, in the Ukraine by Romania, Bulgaria, and I, and in the Caucuses by my armies. China fell to Japan and is now enemy territory, while Japan invades British India.

Currently, I've turned Turkey from a weaker nation into the largest industrial power in the Middle East or Eastern Europe. My army is one of the largest, with new tanks and machineguns, and I have a new submarine-based navy which has moved from trade interdiction again Spain and Italy, to attacking Japanese convoys in the Indian Ocean.

Once WWII is over, I'm turning my armies on Arabia to reunite the Ottoman Empire for good.

>>21
Good luck with whatever you're doing.
Also I don't really get it, but can you crush America til it turned into a slave country? Pretty please?

>>22 Pretty sure he's past that point in the game. They likely have already eliminated slavery.
That alternate history sounds pretty cool, though. Keep updating us on the events, Maru.
>>19 The irony is so thick, it is impervious to all cutting implements. Besides, why suggest vodka? Vodka sucks. I prefer beer, bourbon or wine.

>>21 Your game is doing quite good.

I just remembered that earlier this week when I was playing Civilization IV Beyond the Sword I had to deal with a Shaka that was not thinking smart. In that one, there was a number of centuries of peace between the Zulus and Egypt (the civilization I was playing as). That all changed when Shaka declared war on me.

At the time Shaka had declared war on me, I had two defensive pacts with Portugal and Persia. Since I was the one that war was declared on, both Portugal and Persia had to go to war against the Zulus as well. So as a result, the Zulus ended up getting wiped out.

>>24 Well that was suicidal. Wonder if it was a defect in the game's AI, or just a trait of the Zulus that made them declare war so unnecessarily.

I went to the musuem and saw all the yarn. °v°
Sooo tired now though. I just woke up from a small nap. I will be continuing my nap until dinner.

Yarn!!! 0o0

And I found a cat while I was there.

Her name was Cleome. I didn't see any of her siblings though. :\

>>28 GG looks disgusting with those hearts

>>13 Not-so welcome back tbh. More like I've been here but just popping in and out.

>>31 Oh well, you're just not on very often though.

aaaaaand thats it

Well, that was that

You think someone is going to write an essay to finish the story that goes on and on

You know, sometimes I really do not like it when someone shoves their opinion down your throat like it's the only one that matters and anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong and brainwashed. =/

>>36
So.. Americans and dog people?


Konosuba ended with an episode dedicated to a slime. But of course.
I WANT MORE.

>>37 Oh, Neko. You and your overgeneralization.
Konosuba is pretty nooice, though. It was quite refreshing.

>>38
Everytime I say I study psych, people will say "oh, so you read minds?" 90% of the time.
And so I concluded that over-generalisation is a trend and I'm happy to use it since it makes everything simple.
Never trust an Australian to caary in dota.
Never expect dog people to be polite.
Always expect some random passerby to be a potential criminal and proceed with caution.

>>39 You blur the line between generalization and paranoia so well.

>>>22 America is not on my radar :p

I just want to secure my Russian border so I can crush the Arabs and make the Ottoman Empire great again.

And also, liberate China.

>>41 Fuck China.
>>39 If you specifically say Psych and they respond like that you should just reply with something related to pineapple. They might get a reference or they might get confused, either way you win.

I went to the zoo~
I guess I should do some homework before spring break ends soon...

>>37
Not all Americans, but pretty much. Accidentally got myself in opinions and politics.

>>42 What reference is that?

>>43 Psych is a popular american tv show. Pineapples are a thing in it.
Psych was pretty great, not really the newer seasons, but the old ones.

Psych was pretty great, I miss it.

You know what else is related to pineapples? Caspar Lee... Anyone watch YouTube?

I'm greatly regretting giving my number to this guy. I've come to really, really dislike the person.

>>47 Block 'em. Thats what I'd do if I regretted giving my number to someone.

Hi BBS. Long time no post. I am officially bored of my adult responsibilities.

Some chick at school is trying to fire our U.S. History teacher, b/c surprise surprise, she's so sheltered she can't believe he doesn't hold the same views as her! (=

Lol that's like me trying to fire my insanely feminist newspaper teacher. That's so stupid. The whole world isn't going to agree ON ANYTHING! Why would you be mad that your teacher doesn't hold certain opinions?

>50
How is she even going to do that?
lawsuit?

>>51 she told another teacher about it and said teacher told her that she has to write a formal statement (kinda like a business letter I suppose) explaining the dilemma. It's bullshit, honestly.

>>49 It's been so long I don't even know who you are.

>>51 IIRC, there was a teacher who was fired for teaching evolution in a religious school over there.

Bought a bread from a supermarket today.
It was moldy.
After looking at the package, it said to keep on freezer.
It was kept on the shelves in front of the cashier.
..

>>54 They probably kept it by the cashier because it was going moldy and they were hoping it would sell fast up there.

>>54 What kind of bread was it? If it was gluten-free bread that needs to be frozen, it was probably in the wrong spot. Other than that, I am not sure why.

Anyone else feel bored with life?

>>55
Maybe. Or maybe they just don't care.
It was an Asian supermarket with a lot of imported stuff with sketchy food labels.
I've seen a food label that says it contains 138g sugar per 100g.

>>56
An imported soft bread from Korea with strawberry cream in the middle.
I'm guessing it was loaded with preservatives since the expiry date said 2018.

>>57
Drink some tabasco.

>>48 Very good idea. Don't know why I didn't think of that. Thanks.

>>58 That's your idea of fun? You're an odd one, Neko. Then again, what's new there?

>>59 Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or sincere.

>>60 Nothing

Nothing at all

>>61 I was being sincere. Although, when I went block the person I remembered the reason I didn't do so in the first place is because there is no option of blocking a number on my phone.

Get you a guy who tells it like it is. <3



My mom recorded this Charles Manson/Manson Family show on ABC for us and it's really awesome!

There are a few pics in this special where Manson looks like fucking Kurt Cobain.

>>60
Well I'd say drink lemonade, but it's probably winter over there.

when you join a chat group of your friends from primary school, and can't remember anyone for jack's worth

>>63 What? Thats dumb. That oughta be a standard feature.
>>65 Just because its winter doesn't mean it will stop me from enjoying lemonade.
>>66 Thats life. Welcome to the club.

>>65 Apparently there's this belief that only America has real lemonade. Supposedly everywhere else it's carbonated. It sounds like bs.

So I've been watching Iron Fist, hehe, I like it. The fight scenes are really good. In the beginning they were kinda fake looking, but as the series has progressed they've gotten super awesome.

>>67 fuck

>>68
Americans believe a lot of things.
That they're smart, that hollywood movies are good, that celebrities are experts on everything, and that 4 years of trump presidency is armageddon for the whole world.
Just buy them mirrors and let them admire their own reflections.

>>68 never heard of that
>>70 A lot of countries seem to do that.Hollywood movies are pretty good though, but movies from Japanese and German are great as well. Many criticize celebrities as well,more so the people who idolize them are the ones who don't really criticize and agree on some of their unpopular opinions. Trump is really unpopular with many people because of his comments he made public and many media news are against him, but he maybe he could have handled things better like that travel ban. I don't think he is going to be terrible president though. You sure don't like US

>>71
I'll repeat what I said in the previous RTT: I want to smash America's glasses and stomp on his face.

As for Hollywood movies, they're good. For Americans, that is. Once it tries to touch on foreign cultures, it's just cringeworthy. Just look at the anguish of the brits when Hollywood try to remake their movies.

I know Trump is unpopular, but come on. It's only 4 years (why is it so short anyway?) and why would they brong the whole world into the argument if not narcissism?

>>69 If it makes you feel any better, you get used to it eventually.
>>72 You sure got us Americans pegged, don't you? We're all just such narcisistic pigs, appropriating cultures and staring at our selves in mirrors, getting high off of our own farts and all that.
Your overgeneralizations get a bit old, is what I'm saying.

>>73
Internet rule number something
The internet never changes.

Master Pie, master pie,
Gimme the summary of Onani Master Kurosawa.

>>74 You're not the internet, Neko. You're a person who thinks they're a cat.

>>76
Well, to tell you the truth,I'm a cyber cat that can only exist on the internet so technically I'm also the internet.

Not so boring news of the day: the Satanic Temple's trying to get a bronze monument erected in Arkansas. All hail Satan.

...why can't I sleep?

>>67 That's what I thought too. There is a feature for blocking calls, but only calls and not text messages. Apparently the only way to block texts is by logging into the Verizon website and going through some complicated steps I won't be bothered to follow to block a single number.

Today is a good day...

I really want to be apart of the Dollars Emotional Support Discord server but I'm blocked and it sucks.

>>79 Well, if the person in question is still annoying you, the process may be worth it. Are they just annoying, or are they harassing?
>>77 Clearly just making up the rules as you go.
>>80 Of them, I really only like Gamegrumps. Even then, their stuff is kinda hit or miss.
>>81 Why are you blocked?

>>82
Well, I need a creative respite after staring at a bunch of papers about the theories of lightness perception for hours.
Why do people love physics jargons so much?

>>83 Didn't know this was the Stupid Questions Thread :p
I dunno. I think it has to do with a strong desire to sound smarter than one really is.

>>82 The person is very rude and disrespectful, not to mention immature which is why I don't want to answer the messages. But because we'll meet anyways once the weekend is over I'm not sure if it will be worth it.

I sat in a chair for eight+ hours. My ass is sore. I was counting how many yards were in bolts of fabric.
On the plus side though, my boss said that if I continued to work extra hours for our inventory prep he wouldn't give two fucks if I took Wednesday off.

>>74 Actually not a rule

>>75 Dude grows up

>>86 Take it off

>>87 Oh.

>>82 So many reasons, hahahahah-!

..I should start sheep-counting.
Maybe it'll help me sleep.

One hammer, two hammers, three hammers, four hammers, five hammers, ..

How many people actually read these posts and think. what is the point of throwing random shit into a pit?

How many people actually read these posts and think. what is the point of throwing random shit into a pit?

>>85 Well, that sucks. I take it they aren't easy to ignore, either?
>>89 Do I wanna know?
>>87 Your response to >>86 is super easy to take outta context.
>>92 I don't know, probably just you.

Was agario the first io game?

>>93 No, hahah. I don't think anyone does. No one needs that kinda negativity in their life.

Hah! xD

>>93 I'm banned from pretty much everything for being an insufferable glory hole the most cancerous bullshit to vacate itself from the ungodly bowls of edgelord autism.

That's probably the most polite way I can describe what went on with everything.

Fuck, I'm ban on site in pretty much all of the major Dollars populations and no it's not a good thing but, fuck what can I do? I made my bed, so I might as well just sleep in it.

The Blaze is fucking stupid for suspending Tomi Lahren for basically what is her being not conservative enough. Liiiike, uh, doesn't she go on her show and talk about how liberals do the same thing? Yeaaaah...

Also, David Rockefeller is dead *puts on tin foil hat, starts making elite sacrifice conspiracies* and it's Barron Trump's <3 <3 <3 birthday. Cool.
-------------------------

During U.S. History, my teacher was talking about the 3rd rising of the KKK and said, "They just wanted to hold blacks down." So I say to my friend, "I can't wait for one of them to hold me down. So hot." We started learning about the Freedom Rides to and again I was like, "I would have gone just to flirt with KKK guys." Not historically plausible, but a girl can dream ;)

So I was under the impression for quite some time that when LBJ made Affirmative Action, it was the Affirmative Action that we all know today as the one with the racial quotas, but that was fucking NIXON. Just more reason for me to dislike him smh.

We also discussed feminism (my favorite topic), great stuff. Teacher was up there ranting to us about the ERA and Phyllis Schlafly and giving us stats. The feminists in class were esp. fuming when he started discussing Roe v. Wade. He started talking about it very briefly, pretty dramatically, I thought it was quite funny and so did like everyone except the 6 or 7 fems, but he called it "institutionalized murder." Then my friend, a femmie herself, comes up to me after class and starts spewing her feminist bullshit to me (trying to convert me lmao). It was pretty funny, actually. I think that since we've literally got only four more chapters left and two months of school left, we should just do a debate about it. We did it last year about Hiroshima and Nagasaki, now time to do it about a more modern topic. All pro-life ppl get an automatic A, tho, lol. Wouldn't put that past him, tbh.

>>93 Definitely not easy to ignore. The person always seems to be able to find me no matter how hard I try to avoid the person and inquires about my reason of not responding to the messages. Also, I apologize if I'm bothering you. It seems like I'm just whining to you about my problems.

>>98 Meh, don't apologize. It's the RTT, everything goes here.

>>97 Pro-choice for the win (because pro-death isn't an option). Anyone ever hear of overpopulated?

>>96 On the bright side, you can't be banned here. I'm pretty sure you'll fit right in with the rest of us assholes. (•-•)b

>>94 Google.

>>99 i think you actually can get banned from here. Doesn't happen a lot though, and from what I gather it's pretty easy to work around if you wanna be persistent.

Anyway, I'm considering making another thread on the music board, but at the same time I know it's probably completely pointless.

I talked to someone yesterday at uni because a class demanded it, and I tried my best to be friendly and I think i succeeded, and I ran into her again just now. She seemed to recognise me but since I had no real reason to say hello I said nothing. Now I feel kinda bad about it. So long potential friend, I guess.

Just got done sending an application for QuestBridge College Prep Scholars Program. I feel pretty good about it rn. I'll find out if I got accepted to anything in April. Hopefully one of the programs they offer at Yale ;) BUT I'M COOL WITH ANYTHING, MAN!

This sophomore girl, wonderful fucking person, she absolutely adores me, she like invited me to a concert, man. For freeeee. I doubt my mom will let me go, but that's really nice of her. Can't believe she thought of me instead of one of her sophy friends. <3

>>99 Baha, I was banned here for awhile. I had gotten into a really violent fight with Kite and I had made the mistake of bringing it to the BBS when it should have been a situation contained within the Discord server.

So they banned me from here but I keep a really good VPN ( it's not Tor, Tor sucks dick ) so I kept coming back here and they basically told me that as long as I stopped being an asshole they'd keep me around. So then I agreed that it had gotten to a point of just.. pestilence. So I stopped my shit and fucked off from the site for while.

I could do the same thing with iirose anytime I want but, like I've implied before: There's not point in being a nuisance, yeah? I figure that as long that I'm here I should be constructive and offer the benefit others with whatever I'm able to.

And maybe if I'm lucky, people will let me back around. ^.^

>>102 I don't believe it, he's changing.

>>93 Wow. I can't believe you

>>103
Do you even believe in anything besides porn?

>>104 Not even that, sadly

I think I got Niege's luck.

I missed the deadline for an assignment worth 20%, halp.

>>106
Red flag alert.
RIP

>>106 you misspelt my name. now you're cursed or something

>>98 No probs.
>>104 Is that anything to believe in?
>>108 Seems legit. How does the curse work?

Weird error happened..
Anyway.

>>109
Religion and marriage started because people wanted to have legitimate reasons to experience porn. Have faith.

So I'm going to have the next two and a half days to myself. My sister had to travel back to my parent's house because she had a doctor thing pop up, but because I have school I had to stay behind. Lol, not even my cat is here. He's been at my parent's houe since spring break because he had to have another doctor's visit for his boosters to the shots he got.
And I don't have work on Wednesday~ Literally just going to binge Netflix.

>>109 She is forever going to have spelling errors that make her look stupid(er).

>>103 It's worthy to note that I've been being referred to as masochist because... well.. it's kind of a long story.

So, I had met this girl who when by the name Nova. This was IRL and her and I ended up becoming rather fond of one another. We would talk for about two months before we decided to take things into a level of intimacy. What I didn't know is that she was an adult-film model and she was very good at her job. I learned that when I spent a week with her during a transition period between schedule for my work. I'm a private security official and they had promoted me from a data entry secretary to a field officer, and i had a week off from work so that they could run the paper work.

Well anyway, she and I had gotten very close, but after some time of our dating, I had fallen into a mental illness, and I couldn't handle the strain of the relationship with her. She had a very powerful personality, as one is apt to wield in her line of work. Well, I did the right thing and I broke up with her so that I could focus on my mental health.

She had flown off the handle ( I guess she really liked me in retrospect haha ) and she had started making claims that I had raped her when our sex was completely consensual and I had both video and written proof of that from comments left on my Facebook page between us.

I had been getting slander and battered by what seemed like half the internet, I had been getting calls and messages from guys threatening me calling me a rapist and a fraud and all of that ugly stuff. It was a bad situation. I had managed to confront her about it, and her followers were merciless with me. Keep in mind that this consequences had a very physical threat to them as our relationship with just that; irl. Given this, the backlash from her internet followers and real life close friends seemed biblical from where I was sitting.

I mean,I was the guy. She is an attractive girl who's job is... basically a public service. If I was anyone else, I would have believed her too. But I held my own against her false rape accusations with a certain grace, and it was enough to break her cycle of lies. She and I no longer talk, but during the pandemonium, I had been getting comments and messages from friends who support me, as well as enemies of hers who have felt this kind of wrath from her before I had.

Basically, this was one of the messages I had gotten from a good friend, and she basically wanted to explain to me that this kind of episode is nothing surprising coming from me, but she was questioning why I put myself though these kinds of compromising situations.

She had asked me if I was a masochist, and it's a comment I had been getting a lot at the time. I asked her why, and this was her reply.

It seemed profound.
So I saved it.

Rape = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQbei5JGiT8

>>112 That's heavy, man. Sorry to hear all that.
I don't tend to keep messages like that. In fact, I delete all messages, so that I don't get too attached. Always had a problem letting go.
Annnnnnd now I feel like I'm in the Personal Board again.
>>110 Faith? Yeah, sure.

>>113 bro, that was fucking hilarious.



My friend's boyfriend got accepted to Northwestern. So rad!

>>112
I find it weird that people still trust women who post rape diaries online.

Anyone ever thought that scientific language is basically an encryption to prevent regular folks from butting in?

>>116 there are some people who can't speak about their experiences in person, so they try to use the Internet as an outlet of their emotions. Some might be true and some might be lies, but we can't just completely ignore them because we assume most of them are lies.

>>117 Or maybe, the smart people just wants to spite uneducated people by using complicated words, they themselves have a hard time pronouncing.

>>117 Yes, fuck jargon

>>118
Well, based from what Water said, she's done that multiple times already. If she claims to be raped every few months, it should raise some questions at the very least.

>>118 >>119
As much as I hate it, it probably has some uses.

Like, yesterday I saw an article written by a supposed nutritionist. The title: How I spend my holiday eating detox diet.
Complicated language can be a sign that you actually know the stuff.
But really, sometimes people take it way too far.

Speaking of science, it was pretty fun punching through papers like how martial artists break wood blocks for the sake of physics.

I'm such a rebel. I've stayed up until 5am now doing a fucking puzzle.
But fuck that puzzle and its motherfucking curvy border. I've been working on it for five hours and I don't even have that fucking border done. You can't even begin to understand the frustration I feel. And the picture is of a fucking polar bear, the background is all in whites and blues. Gah- I don't even like polar bears.

>>122
Welcome to crazytown. Now I'm not (unproven accusation) the crazy one in this thread.

Side note: my lecturer pronounced statistics as 'testistic'

>>123 Proven btw, all you have to do is check the last few RTTs

>>125
The only one permitted to be crazy in the Pieface cult is our glorious leader. In other word, you.
The rest are not permitted to be crazy as not to overshadow our leader's character.

>>126 Oi, I reserve the right to be as insane as I wanna be. Cults of confections be damned!

>>4 Doujin is an effective way, and required no sound.

>>128 it took you 124 comments before you can reply.
>>4 I use headphones. In the public area during lunch. When your too secretive, people would be curious of what your doing.

>>129 wait what??

I believe that almost every character in durarara has a mental disorder and I am here to diagnose them

Izaya orihara: Socio/Psycopath, god complex

Mikado Ryugamine: Compulsive liar, ADHD

Anri Sonohara: Depersonalization disorder, codependent relationships

Shizuo Heiwajima: Anger management problems

Namie yagiri: IDk if liking your brother is a disorder...but she was like, a mother too him since their parents never helped...so...

Seiji yagiri: again not technically a "disorder", but; necrophillia/objectsexual

Shinra/Mika harima: OCD and obsessive behavior

Sane characters: Masaomi Kida, Celty Sturluson, Tom, simon.

>>131 That was the whole point, mate

Null hypothesis is defined as *inserts a pointlessly long definition* which is useful for *inserts pointlessly long sentences* which is why it is important that we *inserts the lecturer's opinions of why it's important*
I hate statistic.

>>133 Yeah, but research methods/statistics are absolutely essential for us, unfortunately.

Africa is a bitch. Why does it have so many countries? -_-

>>135 Corruption

Best thing I've read all day:
Doujin has a guest artist. Guest artist shits on scenario by going full NTR
10/10 quality
It was hilarious

Finally. Finished. The Fucking. Essay.
I'm never looking at lightness perception materials again.
Also, ALAN GILCHRIST IS A PRETENTIOUS PRICK.

Middle East was easier. But why my teacher insist on teaching Africa and ME together is beyond me. There's already a shit ton of countries in Africa so lets dumo more on you just cause. :/

I'm getting tired of playing Slime Rancher.
Guess I'll study a bit..
And I regret saying that.
Time for a nap.

hello. just pasing by. i'll disappear again like...

NOW

*smoke suddenly appears out of nowhere and kurosuke vanishes into thin air.*

*coughs*

When your white supremacist friend allows you to live in his utopia lol.

He's pretty extreme. If you saw the rest of this conversation you'd either be disturbed or inspired or both lol. He's literally Hitler, but worseeee. Fascinating guy tho.

You know I keep on reading about how wine can close up your sinuses but it's actually helping me unblock them from this shitty cold :/

>>140 Wtf

A wild Kurosuke appeared

>>142 whoa i got one too,in fact i just threw up my dinner

A shame Jontron got kicked from the game

>>144 Only a little. He made this bed.

I have a sudden craving for Harvest Moon and Rune Factory.
When will they make some new ones?

>>143 yeah i apologize about that.. i just sometimes get wild. welp.

>>147 we love you anyway tho

Puzzles. -_-
That mother fucking border still isn't done. I got about half of it.

Other news, I am now the proud owner of a lamp. It illuminates my failure at puzzle building.

I miss my cat too.

>>149 Pics or puzzle plz?

>>147 GGWP

I went to the mall and I bought some shit and now I'm happy. #Materialism

Had to watch a whole documentary on the year 1968. It's amazing. I recommend it.

"Geodesic shapes, duuuude."

Me: *is still abstaining* (and btw it's been ok but I'm counting down the days, man, and I've already compiled a list of places I'd like to eat at after this over. Vegan food is pretty good tho lol.)
Family: *takes me to place with literally no options for me*
Me: I'll just eat at home
Fam: Omg you're so rude! When other ppl eat you have to eat, too.
Me in head: Maybe this is why you guys are fucking fat!

Jesus Christ, AH playing Mass Effect Andromeda, five minutes in I'm fucking clutching my sides and in tears from laughing so hard.

>>152 RIP

I'm going to a meet up for accepted students at my college this Saturday. Hopefully selective mutism doesn't screw me over and I'll actually be able to talk. I'm pretty excited for it, though. And next Wednesday I turn 18 woah. Time is going by fast.

Preferential Voting or Ranked-Choice Voting or Single Transferable Voting is pretty sweet. I want it :D

for those who don't know what it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8XOZJkozfI

Anyone watch the new samurai jack, it was pretty brutal

>>158 Yeah, and I'm loving it. So far, a solid continuation of one of my favorite cartoons from when I was a kid.

My friends called me a bishie earlier...
( . .)

>>160 Sure they didn't just call you bitchy?

>>159 Never watched it... I feel I'm missing out

>>156 Holy shit I thought you were 19 or something

>>161 Definitely bitchy

>>162 You're still 15 if I'm correct. (I always am)

>>163 16 :P

>>162 Never too late to start. All the episodes are online or available for streaming somewhere.
>>163 & >>164 This is just too good.

I'm practising poker face by maintaining a sleepy expression while reading BL in lectures.
Thril.

>>166 You're gonna die that way
>>165 Vat did I do
>>164 You're our big boy now

>>162
19? Wow. I'm usually mistaken as much younger than I am. But nope, I am still a minor for the time being.

Lightning is so fucking bright.

>>169 well yeah
Rip club penguin

During the Holocaust, would the Polish and Russian Partisans count as righteous among nations if they fought for different reasons?

>>171
Yes.

>>168 Even I have been mistaken for looking younger than my actual age. I recall back when I was 23, someone thought I was 20 due to my looks.

>>167 You said to Pieface: "You're still 15 if I'm correct (I'm always correct)"
His response: "16 :p"
So you were incorrect. Just kinda found that funny.

Does anyone here dislike artificial smells, like air freshener, perfume, cologne, candles, ect. They are always too strong for me and cause my nose to bleed

>>174 It's a long running joke hehe....don't know if he still remembers though.

>>176 That I'm always 15? I thought the universal joke was that girls never goes past 17...

>>175 Kind of. The room sprays in small bottles are really strong for me. Even with one spray, I had to leave the room for a bit. Left me coughing whenever I went into the room =/

>>176 To be completely honest, I forgot

>>175 Yes. I hate fake scents.

I shared a picture with someone on Tapastic. They liked it.

My puzzle is coming along pretty well too. Finally getting shit connected and I sorted out all the pieces by shape and color so it'd be easier to find their homes.

My final for Creative Studies is also coming along. That's the one about rape and not many liked that it was about rape or that there were cusswords. Bunch of pansy asses.

I bought this notebook and I think I'm going to make collages in it by cutting out and pasting doodles that I drew in other notebooks in it. I literally fill my notebooks with drawings and doodles and then when I finish the notebook I don't know what to do with it because I don't want to toss the doodles, but I really don't feel the need to keep my notes from classes like logic or biology. So now Imma just cut the drawings out and toss the notes. (°-°)b

Chapter 5 of Starfighter has started. (~°v°)~: *✧・ﾟ:* *:・ﾟ✧*:・ﾟ✧ .・゜

>>175
I think I disliked them? I can't smell anymore, so I have to remember when I could. They always make me cough, even though I can't smell them. So I definitely hate them for that alone.

I finally finished the border. °-°
I have like fifty pieces left. But honestly, I thought the border was going to be the last thing finished at the rate I was going.

When are we gonna start talking about Kokkuri's life? I'm bored and dun wanna do work.

>>184 Now

It's amazing how a crazy chicken lady can be productive

>>185
You call failing a subject and in the brink of failing another 2 productive?

>>186 For her, yes. Its all very relative.

>>185 >>186 >>187 pffft love you guys

Is cocain vegan?

>>189 I'd hazard a guess and say no. There's a lot of shit in cocaine and some of it is probably animal related.

I finished the puzzle! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

I'm in the town of my college for the meet up and it's snowing?? I haven't seen snow in at least 5 years. Wow. It's not even sticking to the ground cause it's not cold enough. But still, it's snow.

The junior class is going on another field trip to like a national college fair thing and I'm thinking of just ditching this one again. I told my mom that since it's on a Thursday (one of her off days!), I can just be "absent" like I was to the last junior field trip and we can head to the Reagan Ranch instead since I've never been there before and since it's free. I mean I'm doing something educational either way lmao.

Never. Never base an anime on just the first episode.

... thank you for letting me rant.

>>193 Unless that anime is episodic.

>>190 Pic or its a lie

And never ever judge a manga based on its anime.

The student meet up went well. I actually managed to talk, so that's great! I'm so pumped to go there. It's such an amazing school.

Also, if there's any fan of Voltron Legendary Defender on here, please watch the live video on Facebook tomorrow for Pidge's birthday. I'm freaking out about it and you might see why.

Toy Story 1 looks like it was made in SFM.

>>199 It was

>>197 Nice!

The follow up to the last part of >>198.
I am so happy. Can't believe Voltron actually chose to feature my art during this!!

Some dude at my school got accepted to all the colleges he applied to and waitlisted at fucking HARVARD!!!

So rad!

I made 4 tantos over the weekend...
And Sabaton is coming to SF!

Gods, I feel dead. Western Civ exam was today. I took the ENTIRE class period finishing it, I don't think I've ever hit time while taking an exam. I'm super happy with my essays though this time around, my second one literally spanned like three pages, it was fucking LONG. But I also got the extra credit questions just in time so even if my prof. finds fault with anything on the the main exam I got that backing me up.

>>205 Nyanka, not sure you're comfortable with talking bout your religious views, but I couldn't help but notice you use "gods" a lot. Are you polytheistic? Just curious.

>>206 Yes and no. I just decide to save myself the hassle and believe in the possibility of everything (inlcuding ancient dead religions) and nothing at the same time and then I'll sort all that shit out when I'm dead. I don't see the point in disadvantaging myself by excluding a religion or belief system in my beliefs and then hating on people who worship differently. #Equality
If I absolutely had to pick a religion though I would be torn between Satanism (an atheistic religion where stupidity is a sin) and Pastafarianism (a religion that believes pirates will save us from global warming). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So the Undertaker from wwe just retired from his last wrestlemania in case no one knew

I'm taking my ACT on Saturday. Pretty nervous about this. I'm glad I am actually taking the time to study, even it is at last notice, but right now, I'm at a 29, I just need to raise that at least 3 points and I'll get the score I want b/c Yale. =)

The next few months are going to be an absolute brain overload for me. First my ACT, then I have to do a bunch of bullshit for school, cuz I'm performing in our multicultural show (again!), I'm joining the new Theater and Film Club at school, hoping to acquire an officer position (b/c leadership looks wonderful on a college application)! I have four AP tests in May, I've no fucking idea how I'll study for all of them in a timely manner and remember everything I need to know. I'm for sure not studying for AP English or Spanish, b/c how the hell do you study for a test based on comprehension. Either you get it or you don't. Then I have my SAT in May, sadly the day after my AP U.S. History test. HAAAAAAAAA DEAD. Then I'll be taking the SAT Subject Tests for Spanish and U.S. History in June, and then I'll probably volunteer in the summer at the library. I think I'll probably volunteer for the orientation thing they do to the freshmen over the summer, too. I literally only have 10 volunteer hours out of 100 that I need to complete, so that would be good for me. Oh, and I want to get a job, maybe, perhaps, yeah? Oh, boi, and now I'm forgetting the fact that I have to do AP homework over the summer, too. AP English Lit., AP CompSci (I actually don't know if the new teacher is offering it, but I'm going to e-mail her soon), AP Gov (hardest class in school to get into), and AP Environmental Science or Physics, whichever I get into. Then when summer is over, depending on my ACT and SAT scores, I will take the tests again sometime between Aug-Oct. before the Early Admissions deadline. I think I'm screwing my brain over, but I can't imagine it any other way. =/

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH

>>209 Man, I wish you luck...

Fuck I have an English test tomorrow

>>207
Try scientology. And I thought Pastafarians believe in tentacles?

>>210
Eni-tan will offer his butt if you get a double-digit score.



That moment you finish a long-running game and feel strangely empty. I need some catnip.

>>211 Scientology is too hipster for my taste.
Doesn't everyone believe in tentacles... I didn't think they're existence was doubted. :P

They need to make an HD remake of oregon trail. Keep the same mechanics,just make really beautiful 3D graphics.

>>213 Yeah it would be really cool to see an HD remake of The Oregon Trail. After all, that game is quite enjoyable. I have seen it remade as a card game though.

>>211 Wow, what am I to you, some man-whore?
I only offer ass for perfect scores. Clearly.
Seriously though, Neko, your brain is nothing but BL, isn't it?

>>215
About 75%
The 25% requires a strong stimulus to function.

Guess I'm officially an adult now. Fun. Though, technically I'm not really 18 until 6pm.

Theater and film clubs contains only the most pretentious of pretentious students. College apps are worth it tho plus i personally am interested in that stuff. It's all good except the ppl, but when are ppl even that gr8?

>>218 When are people great? Dunno. Mostly when they wanna be, I guess.

One of my friends stole my close friend's usb.
And I'm really tempted to open it and go through all the files because no one knows much about him.
But it would be betraying his trust.
He doesn't know we have it....
I don't know how much longer I can keep myself from doing so...

>>220 well expect the unexpected then


I love me new cut.

I'm going to try out to be the person who does the morning announcements next year, fuck yeah.

All the ppl have this kinda thing that they do as an outro. And my friend was telling me I should say, "Have a lovely day!" Oh, gosh, I'd fucking laugh after every announcement. I hope not many ppl want to do the announcements next year, b/c srsly, I want to do it.

>>222 Say something condescending, though very veiled.

>>224 That doesn't make any sense...

Bought some cheap strawberries on a whim, turned them into a jam on a whim, and now I'm stuck snacking on strawberry jam one teaspoon at a time because I don't eat toast, or any kind of bread for that matter.

>>226 empathetically speaking, that sounds a little sad '.'...

-gives you fish jam-

>>226 Put it on ice cream or something.

>>227
Fish jam sounds as appetising as zombie slush.

>>228
It's only 25% sugar instead of the usual 50%
It's kinda weird when the ice cream is sweeter than the topping.

..I'll just make some crepes. Maybe next month.

>>229 Crepes sound good right about now. Too bad I don't have the ingredients or will to drive out and get them.

*Begin venting

Gah~ Final prompt for my Creative Studies class and literally I've hit writer's block. I was writing so fucking well on Thursday too, I wrote like 5 pages in one go and I'm literally on the last fucking segment and my brain refuses.
And the thing is I'm not even writing like 'original' work, I'm just talking about some of my OCs. It should be fucking easy! Nope. asdfghj It's due tomorrow.
I don't know why it's so fucking hard for me to just write "Solomon thinks he deserves to be raped because he's gay." Gah! What the fuck does 'lyric essay' even mean? (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

*End venting

i like pizza...I just ate pizza. now I feel fat. Uhmmmm, I still like pizza.

>>232 pizza is bae



So took my ACT today and I feel pretty fucking good about it. The dude sitting next to me was annoying though. He kept falling asleep and he was snoring so I mean you know it was distracting, but not too much. Just bothersome.

Both of my friends like the same guy rn. He seems to like both of them, too. I wonder how that'll work out. (((=

1st day 'back'.
Idiots on the main board still exist. I swear if they just directed the introductions board first when log in and permanently pinned an FAQ or map or something at the top, we wouldn't have such a problem with newbs.
-job is great. Thinking of going to work with Microsoft tho. Pay is better.
-had 2 art gallery openings/shows recently. They went great.
And waiting my ACT scores now.
>>233
Feeling good about it too.

>>234 Welcome back.
Why would you ever tread upon Main? Wouldn't go near it with a ten foot pole.
I have the Random board bookmarked so I never even enter in the password I just go straight to Random.

So I finished and submitted my final writing prompt. I like it and I hate it so I guess I got that.

I spent a whole bunch of money for an easter basket I'm planning on sending to the AH guys. I just have to finish up some fanart I wanted to send along with it and hopefully it'll be shipped off in a couple days.

>>232 Had pizza yesterday.
Bought 2 with my bro, halved each.
I ended up making a pizza sandwich from Hawaiian and Cheese & Onion. Best thing ever.

>>235
I wish I could use a ten foot pole and shove it up every idiot's ass like a shish kabob. I had it bookmarked but I got a new phone and stuff.
Ohhhhh fan art? Link? I wanna see.

My fascy friend and I are arguing about conscription and it's wonderful. I want conscription to fucking die. It's so stupid.

Him: If both genders are equal, then both need to be subjected to conscription.
Me: How about both genders just don't have to be drafted at all? Yeah? Yeah!

Him: Serving your country is a right.
Me: Dying for your country is not a fucking right.

I wonder if he wants to serve. Oh, wait, that's right, he prolly doesn't because he fucking hates his country. The whole "Dulce et decorum est..." thing is such bullshit. I'm patriotic asf, but no way would I ever DIE for my country.

>>237 It's not drawn yet and it's going to be traditional anyway.

>>240 do you think you could give a small teaser.

If many things are as fun as heck, what is as fun as heavan

Well now that r/place is gone there is now pxlr space,which is nice. Also found a cool website called anondraw, where multiple people can draw on a canvas online in public or private. Maybe the art board make a server and use it

Fuck exams.

Seriously. Fuck them

>>242
Once upon a time I had exams.
Now I have assignments.
Take-home assignments.
That you can do leisurely.

Oh Mishka the husky died

>>239 Guess you're a fairweather patriot, then. S'okay, most Americans are.
>>242 If you say so.

>>245 *looks up term* Yeah, that's pretty much me.


We're still actually arguing about this whole "women should be drafted" thing two days later hahaha.

Fascy friend: Well, if we don't let women fight in war then it'll just be a slippery slope to take away all of their rights
Me: That, in and of itself, is a slippery slope.

This is a huge anti-fem, too, btw, well now I don't think so tbh. I mean he's literally the horseshoe theory in action. Far-Right winger who argues on a different basis, but pretty much says the same thing as liberals/SJWs/whatever. So he's telling me I'm not for gender equality and I didn't mention it--although I should have--but he has NEVER been for it himself. I mean I think women should be allowed to fight in war, but only if they meet the same standards as men, y'know. Like anything. If anyone wants to play a role in something then they need to fit the standards of that role. Sometimes men have the advantage, sometimes women have the advantage. That's not sexist at all, but this guy is telling me, that I'm so sexist, when he thinks women shouldn't have the right to fucking vote or be a part of government. LIKE wtf and I'm the sexist one between the two of us. I don't think so lol.

>>236 Oh man that sounds delicious, I had an all meat pizza from a place I've never tried before. I t was great, but honestly Hawaiin with some jalapeños on it is my favorite.

So this guy has been flirting with my friend for about a week now and we all know he likes her. She told us she wasn't interested in him, but in our group chat my bestie has been telling her a few things and i feel kinda bad for the guy because they're leading him on. My bestie is telling him stuff to make himself look stupid and my other friend is fucking teasing him as if she likes him back.

Ppl are terrible. u_u

>>248 sounds like you hang around the wrong people. I'd let the guy know, and call out that bitch. Make sure to screenshot stuff from the group chat.

I've been texting this lady who wants a fwb type of relationship. She is a single mom in her 20s. We've been texting for a few days, and sending pics. We are about to meet up soon for sex, and am 18 btw. I am also a virgin, so this would be my first time. Should I fully go through with this? My family doesn't know, but they would not approve.

>>246 My view: Women should be conscripted if they are physically up to the standard of the average man, and responsible able to, as in, they aren't raising any children who depend on them.

>>250 If you think you need to depend on your parents, don't tell them.

>>251
Not entirely sure about this, but there should be some divisions in the military that barely requires physical strength. Inteligence officers, perhaps, or communications staff. Heck, today's wars are fought by pressing buttons and launching missiles.

Neko's got a point, there are plenty of jobs in the military that don't require hardcore physical labor. Imo we should all just stop having wars.

>>250 She *cough/he/cough* gonna kidnap and murder you. You dumb. Sex is gross anyway.

>>253
The US? stop having wars?
Not happening :|
Wars are profitable. Maybe only second to entertainment, but deals on firearms and placing non-dollars-dependent countries under their control is highly lucrative. Plus, military employment also gives people a lot of jobs.
Take away war and the US is doomed... says some expert on war economy.

>>252 Then what's the difference?

>>255
One group gets to die as goblin grunts who patriotically charge through the battlefields, and the other gets to die as anonymous gremlins.

>>256 Truth.

I'm so mad and proud at the same time. I got a 93 on my WesternCiv exam, but like literally the highest grade in the class was a 96. I was so fucking close. I really thought I would be highest too and I really wanted that lemonade. Ahhh. Goals: aim for a hundred on the final, take one of his classes next semester and demand a lemonade then.

>>251 I literally keep telling him that, but apparently "that's sexist."
>>252>>253 Also true, I'll have to bring that up, see what he says.


It's Day 3 of discussing war & gender w/ my fascy friend who turned uber feminist lol, but 'salright. As I've said, fascinating mind, we just have wildly different views.

Him: If a woman has dreamt her whole life to join the military, why should barriers exempt her?
Me: Well, there's a lot of circumstances where people have dreamt their whole life for something, but that doesn't fucking mean they're going to be able to get in if they don't pass the requirements.
Him: Clearly, you don't believe in equality of opportunity
Me: No, you're just conflating equality of opportunity with equality of outcome.

>>249 they're not bad ppl, just desperate for male attention, sadly. I'm not getting involved in this. We're all meeting up on Friday. It'll blow up in their face and I'm not going to partake in telling them what to do about it b/c I'm simply not interested in this bullshit.

so i was thinkin right? right. and i was like why isn;t there a TV screen that you can mount to your walls and then you can controll it with a remote or something. Like then you can swivel it back and forth or to the left or to the or right. it would be so practical. im my opinion at least. so That's my random thought XD don;ttake my idea!! >:(

>>259 (^-^)b

I walked three+ miles today. I went into the post office to ask questions about mailing my AH easter basket (hopefully I'll have some of the art done so I can send it by tomorrow and it'll arrive for Easter). Then I walked to a WalMart so I could get some water and batteries. My fucking smoke detector has been beeping like an asshole because the battery is low, I had my door shut + two fans going + music playing and I could still hear it all night. After that I walked back home. My paws are sore.

>>258
Equality in opportunity is bullshit anyway.
Just take a look at the statistics that say Americans only have 5% chance to move away from their economy class (high, middle, low) no matter how hard they work.
On that note, the whole concept of equality is rubbish.

>>261 It's only ever been an ideal, never a true reality.
Still, doesn't mean it isn't worth pursuing.

>>262
They should at least change the semantics, imo.
Being equal requires a standard scale, and since the word equality is used for pretty much everything, people are just saying being equal means this or that without any substance to the argument.
Maybe change it to fairness or randomness.

>>262 this

>>263 you have a point. I think ppl just want to whine about something that can't possibly be achieved realistically. The "equality" ppl want is not the equality we see in real life. Real equality is realizing everyone has certain advantages and disadvantages and that life simply isn't fair. But I suppose "equality" is subjective.

I can't believe I actually completed Lent. Vegan and sugar-free for 40 days (more like 46, I had no idea Sundays didn't count). Tomorrow is my last day. =) And then on Friday when I hang out at the mall with my friends I'll be eating my first non-vegan meal.

Lol the boy we're going to the movies with wants to fucking movie hop and sneak snacks in. I'm actually ok with it, but lol I'm just a paranoid freak who thinks she'll get caught. The snacks I don't mind, I do it all the time (movies are hella unreasonable), but the movie hopping, hmmmmm.

We're most likely going to watch shit movies and I mean I'm fine with that (lol it's not my money and that is why). They all want to see Ghost in the Shell. I haven't even seen the anime lol, so that's kinda shit for me, b/c I was planning on doing that before watching the fucking movie w/ an actress I fucking hate (lol, i just hate her when I see her, it's really not anything against her acting hahahaha), then when we're done watching that apparently Beauty & the Beast, not really something I'd enjoy watching at the movies, more of a home film for me, and then possibly, hopefully, Logan.

I want to see that Get Out movie. It looks cringey as hell, but it reminds me of my parents (minus the horror).
Plus, reminds me of me and the boy I like =') His family shoots animals, hope they don't shoot me JK JK!

With the whole movie hopping thing tho, I really wanted to go to the mall to hang out, not spend the whole day at the theaters. At some point they're going to get hungry, I'm not going to sweat it. We won't buy tickets twice, b/c that's not practical lol. I'll prolly just get annoyed quickly by all the incessant flirting that will occur, but ugh, whatevs.

When you make too much pasta to eat by yourself :(

I can't eat 3 bowls.
Who the fuck made it so it expands.

>>266
It doesn't expand that much.
You sure it's not marshmallow?

>>267 A bowl of marshmallow noodles soundds about right.

>>266 You sure it's not soap. That stuff gets huge in the microwave.
That or you just left the noodles in the water too long.

I've been feeling blegh lately. My preferred boss at work has been on paternity leave and so his higher up has been taking over his role and he's awful at it. I keep trying to get my shit done, but then he'll just stop me and pull me over to do some stupid, ridiculous task. On top of that he changed my schedule to overnights without telling me and he scheduled me hours that I can't even work because of my morning classes. I'm just like really pissed off at him and want to yell at him, but when I went in yesterday he wasn't even fucking there. :/

>>269
IT'S PASTA.
deja vu.

>>270 We're not starting this again. -_-
...But logic = He has so much PASTA because he left the NOODLES in too long and they got bigger than necessary. Noodles can refer to a dish, but also refer to what is in the dish.

So I walked to the post office and sent in my AH Easter basket. Hopefully they'll be opening it up on AHWU #365 because that's the one right after Easter. And I wrote AHWU #365 really big on it.

>>271
Debate of the century aye.
...But logically speaking, it could easily have been macaroni, or ravioli, or some other form of pasta. Which are not noodles.


Also, Easter = eat chocolate and get fat day.

>>272 You are correct about Easter.
*Ignores noodle comment

The guy we're going to the movies with. I felt so bad for him until he told ny friend that he's bad with women and would rather "die than go alone to prom." Ugh. Protip: Never date or crush on anyone who is actually pathetic enough to feel that way.

So he tells her "dating is a game and he likes the idea [because again, he's like the archetypal lonely, sexually suppressed man]" I mean wtf if he wanted to put his dick in her seems like he should have said all of this after the fact lol. If that was the goal you'd think he'd fake his "love for her" until he either fucked her or took her to prom, but maybe that's too long of a wait for him.

I'm glad my friend told him she's not that kind of girl. He apparently got pretty triggered about it, so good, fuck this guy.

What's that post in another language mean

>>275 Which post? Link it. And Google Tranlate.

So I just spent an hour trying to get a hundred on this quiz (and failing) before realizing that my grade doesn't matter. I just needed to take it and then fill out a survey, the certificate of completation doesn't even have my grade on it. Aghhhhh.

I really want to skip my next class, but I need to talk to my prof about a quiz I took that still doesn't have a grade even though it should be graded automatically after I take it.

I really hate life rn.

>>273 Spirals btw. So not noodles.

>>277 *Sighs. I think this is just an american thing. Noodles include EVERY TYPE OF NOODLE! It's like saying a crayon isn't wax because it's a crayon.

>>278 Really? I always assumed it was a square-rectangle thing. Y'know, all noodles are pasta, but not all pasta are noodles? Something like that?
I dunno. I don't really care.
One reason to love my school: since its a Catholic institution, we get Holy Thursday and Good Friday off, as well as the Monday following Easter (for return travel, I assume). Its like an epilogue for Spring Break.

Are all noodles pasta? Like rice noodles,egg noodles

All noodles are pasta, but not all pasta are noodles.

Maybe it's an American thing?

ATTENTION AMERICANS
Not all noodles are pasta, and not all pasta are noodles.
Pasta involves things made of egg, flour, and otther additions.
Noodles are versatile and can be made out of anything. Examples include just as boob said on >>280, rice, spinach, wheat flour, other types of flower, etc.
Google up vermicelli, or soba, or udon. Those are types of noodles that no self-respecting Utalian would call pasta.
Rule of thumb: if it's not yellow, it's not pasta.

/end sermon
Better you listen to this than the priest rambling on about watching porn is a sin.

>>282
Typos..
Meh, leave them be.

>>282 ...but rice is a type of pasta D: Spinach noodles are also considered a type of pasta. etc.

We even have specialty pasta outlets that sell spaghetti pasta made from unique combinations of various flours / spices / veggies / etc. Few of them are yellow or share the texture of traditional Italian pasta, but they're still considered pasta regardless of ingredients so long as they can be cooked like it / used as it o:

Probably the only thing we don't call pasta here is that crispy fried shit you get at the Chinese place, even if they try to call it "noodles" on the menu... we see what you're doing... (If it doesn't package dry (or doughy?) and cook wet, it ain't pasta >c damn knockoff products)

>>284 (For the record, I know rice is a grain, but it often gets lumped in with everything else there. (There are also pasta that are designed specifically to mimic rice.))

>>284
HOW DARE YOU REGARD THE RICE AS PASTA YOU APOSTATE. HANDS OFF OUR SACRED STAPLE.
..but anyway, if that's how you classify things, wouldn't be long beofre spiralised vegetables are called pasta.
just saying.
And by that definition, instant noodles are pasta.

>>286 yes instant noodles are also pasta

"spiralised vegetables"

... would this include sweet potato pasta?

tl;dr: America ruins everything?

>>287
Yes. Spiralised raw carrots, spiralised raw zucchini, etc.
tl;dr: Americna english is diabolical and should not be used in international communications.

>>284 Americans are fucking weird.

>>278 The fuck? It's literally a spiral, like, a vegetable spiral, but made of wheat.

How the fuck is that a noodle?

I'm not even going to read all of the posts that happened while I wasn't on, but just know I hate all of you and the majority of you are stupid. -_-

And this because it gave me a giggle.
The majority of you are noodles.

The word noodle was derived from the German word Nudel in the 18th century from an UNKNOWN origin. That's right, UNKNOWN.
The people who first classified spaghetti as noodles probably didn't know shit about the difference between Italian food and Eastern food and had the brain capacity of a toddler, in seeing only the long, and tentacle-like appearance without noting the difference in ingredients.
The people who still insist that all kinds of pasta are noodles are even dumber.

>>292
On a side note, the average IQ of US citizens is 98 compared to 104 and above for China, Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong (all the countries where noodle is highly popular). In other words, Noodle as an insult is a pathetic attempt by an inferior country to mock people smarter than them.

Think we went WAY too hard on this noodle argument.
I'm just glad everyone's still alive.

>>291 They were fucking spirals

>>295 I'm just glad I had 'em, the pasta, I mean

actual random thought thread ^

>>297 thx omg XD



Ok, so yeah Ghost in the Shell sucked.

Mall good. Mall fun. Cute guys. Yes, yes.

I had to read this piece by James Baldwin for class today and we have to do responses for the pieces we read and I titled mine "How to Start a Cult for Dummies." He's either going to love it or roast it so hard. That is, of course, if he reads it. We do 2-3 per each class (3 weekends, 2 normal class days), but since he loves roasting ppl's work, it takes most of the class to get through everyone's responses for only one of the pieces.

I think he'll choose that one though, b/c although the guy loves Twain, we already read through responses for another Twain piece last class, and I'm sure he wants to read our responses to OTHER authors lol. =)

>>298 Had a feeling the movie was gonna. Just based off of the trailer, it seemed they weren't gonna try too hard to be faithful to the source material. Hell, they got her backstory all wrong.

forgot how much fun polyvore is tbh

it was such a great idea on their part, too. I bet they make bank.

god I don't even remember 90% of my old posts on this site.
Really need to stop being such a tripfag.

Holy shit.

Flip Flappers is the best shit I've seen in ages.

Also the only shit I've seen in ages.

>>303 Is it?

The AMVs of it look great, but I've been avoiding it because the moe aesthetic gives off "this is literally just fanservice, please don't watch me" vibes. Might try a few episodes if it's decent tho.

>>304 You're taking a recommendation from a guy who reads mostly hentai.

>>304
Bae, combine the semantics of line #2 and #3.

>>304

Eh, it does have bits and pieces of fanservice. Though, I found it to be a good show. It's very artsy. In a way, I would compare it to Little Witch Academia due to the flow of the story.

I'm writing my next article for the A&E section of the school's newspaper on Ten Second Songs and I contacted him on Facebook and he actually replied back and so I'm going to have a legit interview in my article. This is so cool. I'm so in love w/ that man. <3 <3 <3

I should do this more often. I don't like doing interviews with people at school, but I do like contacting ppl online haaaa my social skills suckkk.

Lmao, can you believe I was actually going to write an article on Vaporwave and I told myself, nah, how do I really write about that plus I need to stop talking about memes and so I decided to do it on him instead.

Did I eat yesterday? ...Yes. Am I going to eat today? Maybe....
Anything I cook is going to involve dishes. I don't want the hassle, but food... and incoming expiration dates. :/

>>305 Hentai has better stories than the average ecchi tho.

>>306 ? I meant that I'd at least try it if it gets recommended enough. Otherwise it's in the "don't bother" bracket.

>>310 Just try the first few episodes.

That should give the general vibe of what the series is like.

Come to think of it, it's easter.
Shouldn't we offer Bambi as an offering to God or something?

>>312 Offer some halal Cadbury easter eggs to Bambi.

From what I remember of the tradition.

>>313
Aren't humans supposed to make the rabbits run around like fools and then burn them at the altar?
The felines would just eat them, though.

>>314 Let's just burn the humans or is that too much effort... seems like they would make a fuss.

>>315
Burning humans smell bad.
Let's just use gas chambers.

>>312 noooooOOOOOOOOOO

>>313 yes this is accurate. chocolate should always be fed to internet bunnies on easter. (no need to look it up) many thank.

>>313 Only got one this year. Not buying more for that false idol.

I haven't seen the lolthread in a while. I think it deserves a bump today.

A few years later and I still don't get what makes anohana so touching.

Well hope everyone got a good Easter, I keep finding new cuts on my hand everyday for some reason

>>321
It's probs the curse of Easter Bunnies.
You should do an exorcism.

>>321 RIP Boopwrang

Found a recipe for vegemite spaghetti.. Some things you just can't un-see.

I changed my name, it used to be Tamiko. random

>>324 Do Australians even like vegemite? From what I've heard that shit tastes awful.

I worked 9pm to 8am. Holy fuck I feel dead. Some douchebag thought it would be a great idea to wreck a mod and condense the five sections to four and we had to spend hours fixing it.

I've been watching Daredevil on Netflix, that show is good. I don't like some of the characters, but I think the plot makes up for my dislike of them.

>>326 I admit that I have not watched Daredevil on Netflix yet which is kind of funny since I am a superhero fan. Course one reason why I have not watched it yet is because I am currently doing a marathon of every season of Power Rangers that is on Netflix. I am currently up to episode 24 of Power Rangers Mystic Force.

Fuckwit (read: self-proclaimed "Anti-SJW") Logic:

"OMG I can't believe they took JonTron out of the game! He was just expressing his opinions! No matter how controversial they are, you shouldn't just fire someone for disagreeing with you or stirring your audience! That makes Yooka-Laylee a political game! It's all propaganda!"

"OMG I can't believe Mass Effect hasn't fired Manveer yet! He's such a bigoted racist for all his comments about white people! He's alienating a huge portion of their audience! He should've never been let on the team! Refusing to fire him when their players ask makes Andromeda a political game! It's all propaganda!"

...

Everyone keeps hitting on me -_-' like there was this one guy that came up to me today, started talking and said "you're really cute" and then said "nevermind forget I said anything" before completely denying he was hitting on me when I didn't even ask. I had a friend a few days before confess that she's had a crush on me for a few months. I was literally PULLED into some girl's BREASTS (completely different girl and occasion). I've been winked at by acquaintances on numerous occasions. Do I have that affect on people? I mean, I find it really unfortunate as I pretty much feel no attraction, even to attractive people. I also find it really flattering, but at the same time it's probably morally frowned upon to be flattered at the expense of others...

Also I'm back and slightly manlier. Which is really weird that right after that started happening (wearing mostly guy's clothes but still rocking long hair), more people started hitting on me... hmph.

>>326
Nah, most people don't even like them.
It's one of those local products that you don't like but eat anyway.

>>328 that's accurate, sadly ^^;;

No group can escape the cult mindset I suppose. Arguments only matter when they're beneficial to the collective. It must never apply to the other side ;)

I've been pretty sad for a few days. When I went to the movies the other day w/ my friends, my bestie's mom came pretty early and my bestie's sister was there, too, and I'm not kidding she ran over to her so happy and she even waved at us so happy, "HI M*******'s FRIENDS!" I'm just really sad about this b/c when my friend came back she was annoyed abt it and I thought she was pretty lucky to have that. I don't think I've shared this on here yet, but my little cousin that I'd talk about on here often, I haven't seen in her in 9 months and I miss her so much every day. You really don't realize how much you care about a person until you don't have them anymore. Much of what I see reminds me of her and I get so sad when I see other little girls who look similar to her. I just want to see her back and my asshole uncle doesn't even seem to care. All he cares about is his girlfriend and I'm pissed off abt it so much. I feel like I won't see her before I leave for college and it just gets me so sad, b/c I really love her ='( </3

2am I am awake. Sleep schedule absolutely fucked. Godsdamn the WalMart academy and them making me work overnights again. I have classes in the morning. T^T

But some good news, I've gotten over my writer's block and forced out a page and a half on my Creative Studies final.
I'm feeling very on top of my homework. The only things I have due this week are a small inclass quiz and an exam for my online Astronomy class. (Tbh, I'm super glad I got to take Astronomy instead of Chemistry for my science credits, way fucking easier.)
I need to register for my fall classes soon though.
I've been worrying about my graduation year since I changed my major and then accidently missed that one day class that I have to take before I can do anything in the education side of my major. I should be at the halfway point but I just feel like I'm not (even though I probably am and I'm just being paranoid).

>>332 Thats what I did for science credit, too!
... then I still took chem, anyway.

Daily contemplations: magical girls are forceful brutes with the combined IQ of a slime.
Credits to Re:Creators

>>334
*combined species IQ.

Fall registration is being a fucking bitch. I have three classes set in stone plus my intro to teacher shit which doesn't count as a class. I would like at least one more, preferably not in fucking history because I'm already registered for three of them, but apparently I can't take child psychology for some unknown reason and every other class suggested by my degree plan and seems interesting doesn't exist. I settled on intro to econ for my fourth class, but there aren't any dates listed and my schedule says it's online and I don't want to take online. (¬_¬)
Why does it seem that registering for a class is the hardest thing about the class?

I'm really mad about my Creative Studies professor. We were doing workshop again (the last one for the semester) and so of course I wanted to workshop the piece I've been talking about that's about rape because I'm planning on that piece to be my final. We had 15 minutes for each piece that was being workshopped today and he spent like 10 minutes on mine ranting about how much he didn't like the way I presented the rape, the tone of the story, etc etc, and of course it's not like any of the students are going to speak against him after he's been going on and on about how much he didn't like it. And then he's completely disregarding and outright disagreeing with my notes that I add in at the bottom of the doc saying that I'm wrong and don't know anything about my own character. Like wtf? T-T

>>337 "don't know anything about my own character."

How does that even work? "Yeah, I mean, she wrote it, but...I DON'T LIKE IT SO SHE'S WRONG" is literally your professor's mindset lmao.
---------

Auditioned for my school's annual multicultural festival. Singing "Les Yeux Ouverts" this year. It'll be rad.

Tmmrw is fucking Theater and Film Club day. Trying out for publicist, have to write down something on a note card though. A lot of my acquaintances are in there, maybe they will vote for me? Lol, cool cool.

Man, I hate ppl who don't like the answer they here so just assume the other person is lying. My bestie asked me to ask our other friend if she liked the boy who went to the mall w/ us back and I asked and she explained to me some stuff, but essentially, the answer is no and that she actually hopes she doesn't, b/c it stresses her out. Completely understandable, yeah? So I tell my bestie and she starts getting mad (YES, MAD) b/c she thinks the girl is lying when the girl does not even have that kind of reputation in our friend group.

I just think my bestie wants her to like him back, b/c it gives her a reason to 1) talk about her negatively if they do something she doesn't like and 2) b/c she is literally the most "I flirt w/ my friends boyfriends" person ever. No lie, I will never ever introduce any of my boyfriends (haaaa) to her...like ever. Isn't that terrible? But it's b/c she's like that and I think that's really shitty.

Okay, so I uploaded the piece on wattpad and you guys can read a little bit of it and tell me what you think.
https://www.wattpad.com/400684987-prequel-to-a-not-sg-fanfic-that-i%27m-not-currently

(I don't know why it keeps saying that the title of the part is Untitled Part 1...)

I'm glad I am doing well finally in my life and got my 1st paid check. As long I've been studying for medical I really can be hard on myself but I'm doing ok. The more I been doing good I need to feel proud. Sometimes though I just feel so confused or hesitant. Ooooh I'm just a good person I need to know that, that's why I'm here and this is how my mind can be sometimes. Very confused to feel sometimes.

I can't believe I forgot abt this story lol.

Me: *mentions Danzig in presentation*
Teacher: How the hell do you know about Danzig? That was some obscure band when I was growing up. You really are a weirdo, miss. Honestly, though, you'll find that these guys with long hair have no personality...that's why they grow out their hair.
Me: Glenn Danzig has tons of personality! *remembers above headline*

I had to read a Fitzgerald piece for English and it was SHITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.

What this dude could have said in like 3 sentences turned into 14 fucking pages of flower-y writing. Not anything wrong w/ that kind of writing, but it was soooooo boring, it draggggggged.
--------------

Ten Second Songs answered my questions for my article. <3
My goal when doing these articles is to get noticed by Yale, but man, I'm having a lot of fun regardless of that fact. ;) For sure I'm going to keep writing for something in college. It's just a lot of fun, not so much the deadlines, but other than that, I love this stuff.
----------------

My English teacher said he hates PINK FLOYD today omg (at least he likes the Doors ;) ). It was funny tho, b/c he started explaining how he loves all other classic rock bands, but that Pink Floyd irks him b/c he thinks it's what "college freshmen who were just introduced to drugs" listen to. XD

>>339
Doesn't look like a BL scenario so Imma skip it.

Anyone heard of the mystery that is Bruno Borges?

>>343 The prequel isn't. The main character is gay, but he doesn't get romantically involved with anyone until the main story.
On the topic of my story, because I hate myself, I decided to give into conformity and rewrite the whole thing. Now it's just a boring, lifeless therapist report which kinda pisses me off. :/

>>344 Nope.

Allergies and mosquitos, why must one suffer at the nicest seasons

>>346 GG

>>344 Nope

I went to the Ronald Reagan Ranch Center today and I'm so glad I did that. I loved it, man. It was hardly about politics and mostly about his personal life. He's such a cool guy. I see what my history teacher was saying lol. Funny guy, too, man. And so handsome when he was young!!!

Glad I ditched the stupid College Fair field trip for this hahahaha cuz I had such a great time.

My kitten is back home. =^x^=

>>349 Didn't know it ever left.
How is the little scamp?

>>350 I briefly mention that he'd been at my parent's house on >>111 because of shots he needed to take. But anyway, he's doing pretty good. He immedietly jumped all over me the moment he got home lol and he's been passed out in my bed for the majority of the night. He weighs 10 pounds now! My mom got him all fat. >v>

>>351 Oh, that!

Does anyone have/know where I could find insider information on the mock stocks app, Best Brokers? Or insider info about stocks and which ones to buy, and also info about the best tobacco stocks to invest in.

Also, does anyone have ties to/know someone in: Delta Airlines ?

Better yet, anyone who is willing to work with me on getting our stock portfolios up?


I'm having a competition with some friends, you see, but we never set clear rules, so naturally, they will cheat as well; in fact, one of them already has the upper hand bc of his knowledge and access to a partner's stock portfolio. Thanks for the help~

I think I just had a mild allergy reaction, too bad I don't know what caused it. My lips starting swelling and I got some extreme itch as I was in bed in the morning.
A brain transplant could take place this year, I'm sure that is going to be a huge boost in the medical fields and people's future
Is anyone watching the new samurai jack season

>>354 Yes, the new season is nooice. Whats your favorite part about it?

>>354>>355 Man, episode 6 had to be my favorite due to bringing so much nostalgia back in just that episode. What a surprise to spoilerspoilerspoilerCENSORED

Also, the usual popup of old members here and there and such. I'm probably poofing again, but left a thread in animation.

>>356 pleasedontleaveusagain ;-;

Naisu thread tho. It's always nice when cartoons get some attention in that board.

>>354 >>355 >>356
I haven't started up on the reboot yet (want to rewatch the original first), but it looks great from the bit I've seen.

>>354
It's pretty good so far. Had honestly forgotten about it since the last time I watched was so many years ago.
That said, the new season's doing pretty well with tributes to the old, while keeping the art style the same and adding to the story.
Definitely going to keep up with it, for sure.

Also French elections going on at the moment, we'll see what happens.

>>358
It's lacking the comedic impacts that the US elections have. Meh.

RTT:
Now that I think about it, ultimate weapons in RPGs are more like the final goals instead of some extra boosts. By the time you get your hands on one, it's likely that your characters have enough levels to kill the final boss AND the extra boss with a few hits. Also, trophies are there only to make players spend 100++ hours just to get that final elusive 'unlocked all achievements' trophy.

>>359 Both elections hold dire consequences resulting from stupidity. Its not funny, its goddamn terrifying.

>>357 SorryBarabuubutitgonnaprobablyhappenagain

>>361 ;-;

How to be very dumb:
1. Make a site with excessive ads and popups for $$$$.
2. Put a banner on the site lying about the source of those ads.
2.5 "They're from the sites that host these videos, not us, I swear!"
3. Embed a popup ad into the close/"X" button for that banner.

If English (literature ) is English what would it Be in different languages?
(Besides 'literature')

>>364 I dunno, I guess it depends on the language? Ex: Spanish for English iis Ingles.

>>364 (Not sure if that's what you were asking?)

"Literature" (as a class) does translate to other languages normally. It refers to the study of written language in general, not necessarily English specifically. It's common to leave the specification out when you're studying in a language native to the school's country, especially at lower level learning (high schools / etc). ex ---v

In America: "literature class" vs "French literature class"
In France: "classe de litterature anglaise" vs "classe de literature" (someone tell me if this is wrong lol)

There are other types of language classes, as well. Literature is just one that focuses on interpreting writing more than speech or technical abilities.

Is there a new season of durarafag or did some asshole advertise the site with a link to Main instead of Intro?

jfc main is cancer

At least the perma-reaper is coming soon. These threads won't last long :\

>>364 So the class is called English literature and since us English speakers are so arrogant we just shorten it to English instead of literature. In a French classroom the class would be called French literature and it's shortened to literature/littérature because that's the topic of study or it can be shortened to just French/Français like how we do.
Side note, when I was taking French class, after about three years the class became less language learning orientated and more literature reading orientated and I would spend most class periods reading works in French and I obviously still called the class French class and not French literature class.
Side side note, but that's really just a high school thing. They call it English literature because the works are in English. In college the classes are much more specific in ex. you can have a class called 'English literature class from 1700 to modern times' or something and the English part means that it specifically comes from England, you could have a similar class called American literature, or German literature, or like Women's literature, LGBTQ literature, etc, etc.

>>367 Rip

Girl: I don't want anyone to know we had sex. *describes explicit bullshit*

Yet she is saying this shit out loud. Like...if you don't want ppl to know then why are you announcing it to the whole class??? I hate ppl. I hate them so much.
-------------

In other news, the smartie boy at my school who got accepted to Yale is at Yale rn for Bulldog Days <3 <3 <3. THAT'S SO COOL! I sit like two seats away from him in English. When he comes back, I'll be breathing New Haven air omg. I need to ask him how he did it, man. Ughghghghgh.

Ugh, I'm obsessed. Lol, you can't even mention someone famous to me who went to Yale, b/c I'll start talking or thinking about the school. "HEY MOM, INTERESTING THING ABOUT THE MORSE CODE.." I should just get into the school based on how much fucking trivia I know about it.

>>355 probably it has the same elements of the old show and added some new action and plot targeted towards older audience
I've had a stuffy and runny nose all day and I found out my sister left the window open, and then said that opening the window didn't cause my allergies to worsen.
Wonder what will happen if we ever develop a conscious for robots

>>371 Either something really good or really bad. I don't see much middle ground here, unfortunately.

>lurking through lolita fashion channels
>finding Lovely's yt comments in the wild

These things are related.

Just picked up my cap and gown. Wish I could just skip past graduation and get to whatever comes after. Also wish one of those damn schools would just get back to me already. Uncertainty pretty much defines my life right now.

Can people assume anything if others don't have proof against it

>>373 You found one of my YT comments? Really?! XD

I'm so stressed rn. I don't think I'm going to do good on my AP Bio exam. I'm trying to retain as much info as possible, but it seems like I'm losing it all. I loved the class my freshman year. I guess this teacher is just TOO lax. If he hadn't allowed us to get comfortable w/ screwing around in class maybe everyone in the class would feel more confident, but everyone feels like they're going to fail the exam and that's not good. And he tells us today, "Ok, on Friday [this is the Friday before our exam that's on MONDAY] we'll have a CRAM SESSION." What teacher tells you to CRAM? =( Sucky thing is that's the day before my SAT and although I'm not going to really study too much for it, it still a concern. I don't want to be overloaded with information. =/

>>376 yepp lmao
It was about Fairytale Boutique going out of business.

That legit sucks tho. It was such a cute store :c

>>377 ah yeah yeah, I vaguely remember! It was pretty cute. Sucks, cuz when I found out, I had wanted to FINALLY go in. There's another "clothing" store in the same mall area of Little Tokyo, but it's just not quite the same. =/

>>378 Kinda wish Louisville had a Little Tokyo. Closest thing we have to a Little any-nationality is Germantown, which feels pretty much like the rest of the city.

>>379 The closest we have to a Little any-nationality in Oklahoma is reservations. We have quite a few of those.

>>379 >>380 I mean, northern NJ might as well be made of littletowns with how tightly nationalities stick together lmao. (PSA the Indian-controlled districts have the best thrift stores -- beautiful stuff for great prices. & Italian areas have the best restaurants and takeout food imo.) Don't expect to feel welcome at either tho.

Southern NJ is a little more (less?) diverse. Lots of farms and white suburban areas. The only ghettos you tend to see around here (distant from the cities) are for the black community, plus white trash trailer zones. Neither have much culture accessible to outsiders obv.

NJ's weird. And expensive. Mostly expensive ;-;

Only nationality towns I've been to was little France and china town, they have good food
>>376 good luck on the test nonetheless

>>374 Grats

ugh the Countries board is so gross

I wonder if it'd crash the server if the mods permasaged every dupe in that board in one go. Not sure how well the reaper would handle all those deletions ._.

jesus christ it's worse than test, and that board's entire purpose is to be spammed. what the fuck countries??

>>385 icrieverytim ;-;

>>386 ;-;

I mean it's really the only board that really allows languages other than english.

Will the story that goes on and on ever be complete, will someone write a 10 paragraph essay to finish it?

>>388 It's not like there are a ton of threads full of discussions in other languages, though. The spam is from users refusing to use the index, instead just posting threads like "omg is anyone from xyz!?" These posts get few to no responses because ten more duplicates quickly pop up, bumping the other threads off the from page, keeping anyone from seeing them and actually having a conversation.

It's treated like an extension of Intro -- once you post your "Hello!", you go post your "r u from-" x-x

Imo that's why rules against duplicates and board cleaning is important. When the front page moves too fast, the only active threads are those bookmarked by regs who know they they're there and want to come back to them, or that stay bumped from popularity (earned or not). Keeping a single thread for each topic ensures new users can easily find and participate in conversations instead of being locked in an echo chamber.

But no mod wants to touch that dump :\ It'd be a month of work just sorting through the dupes, nevermind policing the changes. It'd take a lot of effort on our part as well (to make sure users know what they're doing wrong and where to go).

>>389 front page*

tl;dr: countries is still a dump. rip.

I just realised Les Miserables is a harem.

Oi, Barabuu, I forgot that my Skype screwed up and pretty much removed all my contacts. Also at this rate, do you have Discord?

I wish I had a PS4. And all the games I really care that I want are Persona 5, and the Yakuza Series. That's like only a few games. Feelsbad.

One more thing, anyone going to Anime Expo? The fact I usually tend go there since there are no other conventions that are cheap on prices(and most are 2-days instead of 4-days)

>>392 Yeah, I have a discord o:

Don't really like either skype or discord (both have trash user interfaces), but at least discord can be opened in-browser.

Same email as always.

The fujoshi fandom will always astound me and give me pleasure.

Man, Live2D's gone to hell.

The new licensing scheme is an immoral money grab, Euclid has the same limits of any other 3D model outside the facial expressions (plus awkward hair pop-in during turns), Cubism 3 isn't getting a full trial phase for early testing, and they're still marketing the 2D side of everything as if subtle character animations are the only thing you can do with plane morphs.

Sad. I was really rooting for them :c

UGHHHH, I fell asleep! I have a paper due tomorrow and I hadn't even started on it and now it's almost 11 and I wanted to start it at 7. °^°
And I'm still procrastinating!
asdfghj fuck Africa!

>>397 Guh, 1am now. Paper finished. I may have procrastinated a lot inbetween writing paragraphs with rereading Sharp Zero and taking micronaps. I'm okay with how it turned out though. It's fucking legible at least.

Sorry, but I'm pretty pissed and I need to rant:

When you exploit your niece's death for attention. Sick. It's funny how when your popular and something really bad happens to you it becomes everyone's issue and the whole world is naturally supposed to become your support system, but if you're a nobody, you're on your own. The school won't mourn with you, hardly anyone except who you associate with will give their condolences, and the school staff certainly won't ask students to give out donations to your family in case they need it for the funeral.

Now, I don't say they don't do this stuff for this girl's niece and her family, but I find it funny how there have definitely been other students on campus who have had family members die and no one cared. Now, because someone popular who has been aggrandizing her niece's cancer on social media, we're all supposed to give our sympathy and cater to her because her niece died. Now, regardless of my own views on death and what happened to her niece, I think it's disturbing that she's been using her cousin since her diagnosis and now in the afterlife for attention.

She shaved her head bald to make sure the little girl wouldn't feel left out and that I thought was alright, but what did she do about it, she brought it up in practically every conversation. It wasn't about the social statement she was making anymore, it was about people noticing her and making sure they noticed.

Then suddenly a GoFundMe and Instagram account pops up and now we're rolling. Post the most pathos-ridden pictures you can of this little girl who has no control at this point of how she's portrayed while she's on her death bed. Perhaps I am just a cold-hearted person, but it reeks of pure exploitation (a la St. Jude's!). They posted pictures of this girl in pain, writhing in her hospital bed, for what? We have a family taking pictures of her in that state instead of helping her immediately when they see her like that. That's terrible!

Now she's dead, and yes, we are expected to donate to this girl's cause and ask her how she's doing as she paints the colors of this girls cancer ribbon on her newly-shaven head, because even though she "wants to be left alone," clearly she means the opposite or else she wouldn't be calling so much attention to herself. She wouldn't be saying stupid things in class like "If I stayed home, I would have killed myself," because she simply knows it isn't true and she says it in a way that says "I WANT A REACTION."

How can you be so egotistical to think of yourself when the niece you've been promoting throughout campus has died? This isn't about anyone except the person who has died. I understand people are going to react (and there's a variety of ways to react), but it's horrible to see someone making someone's death about themselves without any reason except the desire for attention.

How is she talking when she talks about her niece, I mean, it'd be a bit heart crushing if I found out my niece died.
>>398 I give myself an ultimatum to stop procrastinating

>>400 Let me know how that ultimatum pans out.
Man, Bambi's right, this site is loading up with all sorts of garbage.

>>401 It's getting popular again. Can't find the source of the advertising, though I am amusing myself lurking through all the off-site groups. Love seeing links by proud noobs "omg dis mishun is sew impootant" end up 404'ing from an old permasage.

>>400 My life is an ultimatum. It doesn't help.

>>400 Naw, see usually I give myself rewards for completing some x amount. In this case though the paper was just so easy I straight up couldn't take it seriously and thus found difficulty in writing it.
This paper had a max of two pages and a min. of one and a half and that included the intro and conclusion. Like, if I had takem it seriously I probably would have finished it in thirty minutes instead I fell asleep and read comics. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

>>400 Procrastinate or die?

>>402 It is?

I gave a guy my email. He said he wanted to be able to hit me up and talk about anime and I was just like okay, whatevs and so I just gave it to him. He seems to not be a complete idiot for a human and has decent tastes so we'll see how this goes.

When you get a 31 on your ACT and you remember the Yalie girl you talk to said that anything above a 30 is really good. <3 <3 <3

ECSTATIC!!!

Now just need to wait for my writing score.

I just realized... I have 69 subs on youtube.
I should do something for that. Too bad it's finals week.

>>405 Hope he's not a bad weirdo. That'd suck.
>>404 It is.
>>406 Congrats! I only managed a 26... three times in a row.

^ We procrastinators are faithful believers of last-minute miracles. You should praise us more.
Plus it seems to be a national attitude in Australia, so all the better.

>>409 Hey, I procrastinate with skill. It's one of the few skills I've honed to an arrow point. I get the appeal of "last-minute miracles." I just stop myself and wonder sometimes "could I be using my time more wisely?"
Then I realize I'm here, on this BBS.

>>410
The real skill is to aim for that time window where divine inspiration is most likely to come. For example, writing your the introduction for your report just a few days before the deadline and doing the rest exactly two days before deadline actually gives you better result than writing them weeks before deadline.
Procrastination ensures the best environment for the brain. All the time spent dilly-dallying are justified.

Goddammit I'm in one of my moods again. Wasn't I in one like a month ago? Fuck me, it's so close to my tests, too. Fuck this.

Not sure if I mentioned this before, but I'm auditioning to be the person who does morning announcements at my school and I think I've got a pretty good shot of winning. Why? Because only 3 other ppl are auditioning. 2 of which are automatically put the bottom of the decision-making process because they are underclassmen. I'm srsly the only chick trying out for this and if I'm not mistaken, I'll be the first chick to do these announcements...like ever if I get chosen. Tbh, we need a LOVELY voice on the announcements. ;) I say, I'm going to get it only b/c the person who's choosing knows me fairly well and I mean I do this shit on YouTube already, what's the difference? XD

He said make it unique. Everyday the announcements contain a holiday and I mean holidays don't change. No kidding, for 3 fucking years I've had to hear them make the same stupid jokes about the same obscure holidays. I think since we're supposed to be a school of "high ambitions" I will change the holiday thing to a "what influential person was born today" thing. Me on Dec. 8: "AND SO ME IN MY PAST LIFE WAS BORN ON THIS DAY. HE WAS THE MOST AMAZING, HOTTEST, RADDEST GUY TO HAVE EVER LIVED AND WE HAVE THE SAME INITIALS. DEFINITE PROOF I AM HIM IN MY NEW LIFE."

I'm probably gonna disappear from the sight until Friday when Finals are all said and done. Study guides are cunts.

Something entered my news feed bout a Fyre festival in some unknown island organised by some unknown people.
My day was made.

>>414 ?

>>412 "Tbh, we need a LOVELY voice on the announcements"
:|

>>415
Google it up.

>>412 >>415
shh, she's taking the first steps to become a propagandist news reporter.

>>415 ;)
>>416 ur prolly right.


The boy who got accepted to Yale is not going to attend Yale (so I can still be the first one ;) !!!) He's choosing between Stanford and Columbia rn, both very fine schools. He's going to be a history/poli sci major (lol funny thing is my mom keeps encouraging me to double major like that, too). I'm so excited for this kid, honestly. It's so rad that he got accepted to so many exceptional schools. I can only hope that's me next year. DX

>>417 That's epic, congratulations
Do you guys think we have emotions so we are able to preserve things that benefit us and get rid of others that deem troubling to us

This AP test is going to be hard

Shhh, just gonna drop this picture and leave.

>>418 Which AP subject are you taking?

So I'm 99% sure there's a fat ass black widow chilling in a crate outside my house.

Trailers are highly flammable, so I can't risk killing it with fire.

Next best course of action?

>>420 Poison. So much poison.

>>421 I have dogs :c

>>422 I don't see the problem.

>>423
I think she's trying to say the dogs are too stupid to tell apart poison from kibbles. Still, it's minor inconvenience at best.

^ Do we care if dogs get sick?

>>424
'minor inconvenience'
As in digging a grave / preparing a cremation ceremony

Silly cats.

Anyway, my dumb stepdad wants to capture it to donate. (I'm not taking responsibility if he gets bit lol) Apparently you can take them to a local vet & they'll send them to the authorities, either for research or to have antivenom made for local pets who get bit.

>>424 It's at the bottom of the steps where we take them out. Poison'll be a residual problem, even if not ingested directly.

>>420 Put on some shoes and stomp the fucker. Seriously, you guys and insects/arachnids...

Capture successful.

>>428 It was in a tiny ass milk crate. I'm not shoving my foot in there.

If I didn't break the poor old box in the process, I'd probably get bit by something else on the way out lmao.

Lol I dropped a cup of iced tea my mom bought me and she was so pissed off at me, but the excuse is not "I'm mad b/c you dropped it," the excuse is always "I'm mad b/c you don't care that you dropped it."

I hate how everyone else in my family has some sort of flaw, (and I don't see not caring as a flaw, but yeah I guess it can be), but their flaws are justified as their personality and when I do something it's never justified as my personality, which it is. I'm a nonchalant person. Like I'll freak out about academic things and that's about it, but when it comes to anything else. If I break something, oops, well it happened. If I drop something, oh, well. Even when I lose money, I do freak out, but if I don't end up finding it, I figure that's my own carelessness. It's not something I dwell on, b/c I already have enough to be stressed about, so extra stress isn't what I'm trying to get.

But my nonchalance irritates my mom and I assume that's b/c my dad's like that, but I mean there's so many benefits from not caring about things you can't control. I mean I just dropped that beverage. In addition to not caring, I'm a total klutz, no way was that not expected of me.

I srsly think it could have been cleaned up and that was that. There's no reason for my mom to get mad at me to the extent she did when all that had to happen to fix the problem was to clean it up. I guarantee if she dropped it, she wouldn't be mad at herself, but no one in my house ever places their own standards on me, b/c of my age and I think it's fucking stupid. If you're not going to get mad at yourself for doing something, then why would you get mad at someone else. It's like the person who cheats on everyone, but when someone cheats on them they get pissed off. It's absolute hypocrisy.

Just another reason for me to want to get out of this house ASAP. I cannot wait to go to college. My mom told me not to end up like my aunts who never come by, but it's likely that will happen and even she's said it's likely, b/c I just don't like the dynamic of my immediate family. The problem w/ my family is that they can't be chill abt anything. If they don't like something I do, they freak out. It's incredibly annoying and I want to get away from it. I want to be around ppl who don't care like me.

What they freak out about is me dropping this tea w/o realizing we have the fucking money to buy this tea and enjoy it. Like if we were uber poor and getting that tea was an absolute treat, I'd understand it, but we aren't and that's just the reality of it. It's a matter of looking past yourself and at the bigger picture, but they don't do that. She's treating me like I burned the fucking house down.

Urges to go bike riding in the good ol' suburbs of Sydney. Except I'd have to bring my bike on the train which mom-in-law isn't fond of. And dang it no one likes bikes here.

I feel quite listless. Friends are a little boring and the family is full of TV fanatics and obesity. Socialising is out of the question. I've already binged watched 3 series, don't think I wanna do that for a while again.

Someone besides the cats give me ideas .-.

>>431
Ghost-hunting in the graveyards.

<.<.....^


Fok nu. I'm too scared *you'll* be there.

>>431 Alligator hunting in the sewers.

>>434 I'd have better luck finding a kangaroo than an alligator down there.

>>433
Why would I come all the way to Sidney just to hunt a single bird? There's no shortage of fat birds here.


RTT:
I actually made an edible vegetable dish. Cause for celebration.

So Neko and Nyanka are going through some sorta phase. Whats up, guys?

>>437
Trying to pass off as non-felines.
Seems to be useless though.

>>437 Shh, what are you talking about? Nyanka is studying for finals... >>413

>>419 physics

>>438 M'yep.
>>439 Uh-huh.

I wrote an article about individualism vs. collectivism and my teacher thought it was very one-sided and that collectivism should be portrayed in a positive light. Leave it to the libtard to tell me on fucking MAY DAY of all days that collectivism is positive. Yes, pls, tell me how everyone thinking the same is such an amazing thing.

Oh, but "It can't happen here." Give me a fucking break, it already is happening here.

Speaking of "It Can't Happen Here" though. I srsly ought to read that book. My mini-hiatus from fiction (that isn't assigned to me at school) is sorta killing me. I actually checked out a copy of the Turner Diaries and I might read it...no lie if I do, it'll be the first time in a year (I stopped reading fiction in May) that I read a fiction book. I think it'll only be a tiny hiatus from my fiction hiatus (lmao). The only reason I'm reading the Turner Diaries is b/c I heard it's what inspired Timothy McVeigh, plus I was reading about Nazis and the dude who wrote it was like an American Nazi and well yeah, you know, I'm into those things. Plus it's about killing ppl in California, b/c we're all about that miscegenation here. Lol, I'd be so totally dead if whatever happened in that book happened irl.

Back to my article tho (ugh, sorry for the jumping around), I'm going to appease my teacher. Make it less one-sided, whatever that means, I literally state that collectivism is good for unity and that tribalism is natural. I'm not going to deny that, but what it leads to isn't positive and there's no way to fucking sugar-coat that. I can't believe I'm being told to make the fascies at school feel better about themselves. Next up, I'm writing about what happened at UC Berkeley with the Ann Coulter situation. I hope saying that ANTIFA is a radical group, essentially (through action) against the first amendment isn't "one-sided." Ugh. But I must always remember, "it can't happen here"!!!!!!!! *rolls eyes for eternity*

>>442
Isn't that just plain unmiformity instead of collectivist culture?
Collectivist cultures are more stagnant overall but it's not like they're. incapable of change, or internal conflicts for that matter. (communism is not the only example of collectivism, btw)

>>443 But comrade, uniformity is collectivist in nature.
I also never said they weren't capable of change (just look at those NatSocs!) or internal conflicts (that's why dictatorships are overthrown just so that the people who come into control afterwards become a dictator themselves. It's a vicious cycle, man.) or that commies were the only collectivists (nationalists, the alt-right, religious extremists, cults, etc. Any and all groups are a collective, but it is the nature of their collective that makes them for individualism or collectivism). (=

I think this song characterizes collectivism perfectly!



AP Spanish test tmrrw, yayyy...ugh.

I think I did good on my test (=

3 finals in one day, but I think I pulled it off with good results. My Western Civ final I'm a bit not fully happy, it's prolly going to be a high B or low A. My geography final though should be an A because that one is super easy. My Creative Studies final... I don't actually know how that shit gets graded, he hasn't graded a single assignment this semester soo... I guess I'll see in the upcoming week.

Now all I have left is my Astronomy final which is due by Friday.

>>445 Did 'well.' You said you wanna go to Yale? :p
Two finals tomorrow. One is the presentation of my group's Capstone project before a board from the psych department. The other is for linguistics. Fun.

>>447 never forget George W. Bush went to Yale ;)


So I'm barely getting over the fact I've done one test. Time to prep for the next one! APUSH here I come. I hope they don't ask me anything about the 70s, b/c I can't talk for shit about that time. I can bullshit that time period. If they ask me about the Reconstruction Era, I might not know shit either. Colonial times is a hit or miss. I can totes talk about all the religious wackadoos (gotta love the Quakers, man) here. Not sure I will remember the economic and social structure differences between all the regions though. McKinley and TR's presidency could also be a hit or miss for me. I don't remember much about anything in that time period except that TR is fucking awesome. Ugh, Woodrow Wilson, too. Like wtf about him except WWI and his Fourteen Points.

I'm not ready =((( MULTIPLE CHOICE, yes. ESSAYS, no. )))= I will prolly rant on here some more about history, later. Enjoy. =)))

Well the AP physics test wasn't that bad I guess, apparently almost everyone had trouble and had to guess. Well, maybe I'll will do better on AP physics 2

Oh a fellow warning
https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/05/01/intel_amt_me_vulnerability/
I you have AMT,ISM,or vpro on your intel, there's a chance you could get hacked remotely

>>448 Thats true, he did... because of his family's money and a "legacy."
Only one school I've applied to hasn't rejected me yet, and thats Kent. Hoping for the best, but mentally, I'm definitely preparing for the worst.

I got a 95 on my Geography final. The class average was 77. I can't even understand how it's that low. We were allowed a notecard during the test. I had the entire study guide on mine. Plus people who went to the review day got bonus points (I didn't go). And on top of that there were extra credit questions on the test. Stupid humans.

>>452
Still trying to wrap my ahead around that.
You're allowed a notecard? In a test?

Just gave my Capstone presentation. I think my group did well, though we got an 86 on the paper component. Apparently the member in charge of the learning psychology influences dropped the ball on citations. I should still get a high B/low A, so I couldn't care less.
One final left. My final final, too.

>>453 Yes, and we're allowed to fill it out front and back with as much info as we want.
There would probably too many failures without it.

Everyone else: *studying for APUSH*
Me: *stressing out about studying for APUSH*

I'll get a 4. I crammed last time and got a 4. I'll be fine with a 4. Today's World Press Freedom Day and it reminded me of the muckrakers and then Jacob Riis and then that reminded me of different reform periods and I thought that would be good synthesis. I also thought that maybe if I get the 70s I could easily talk abt the femmies (I love feminists for all they offer me in my class!). I hope they don't ask me about any wars that aren't the world wars or vietnam, because I don't remember much abt the Span-Am war or the Civil War bored me so I hardly paid attention (13-15th amendments tho, yes yes). And Korea is literally the forgotten war!!! But hahaha containment, man. Hell yeah. I can talk about foreign policy during the Cold War that should work. I hope they ask abt the 50s & 60s tho, because those are my best time periods.

Help a girl out. Ask me some questions about U.S. history or give me a topic. It is much appreciated. (=

>>456
The US bombed Japan in 1945 on the basis of rigteousness. Other countries don't think so.
Explain.

>>457 are you asking me to explain why other countries don't think it was good ooooor???? XD good topic tho ;) we did debates about that last year for AP World History. Fun times.

>>458
Explain both sides. So why'd the US think it was necessary? and why'd other countries condemn the attack?
Devil's advocate is a fun profession, really.

>>458
Oh, while you're at it, please explain why the US seems to be more fussy about darling Hitler more than Europe?

Us bombed Japan to make them surrender, it was the alternative then going through an all out war with another country, many more would have died. The Japanese were pretty nationalistic and wouldn't give up until the bomb.

>>461 Not necessarily. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-Rrmqju74A8

>>459 I'll try my best to explain the other countries. It's been a while since World History, but I'll try!

U.S. thought it was necessary, because one (and I actually hadn't known this until this year, buuuut...) if they hadn't, Japan would have become another Korea and Vietnam. The U.S. asked for Russia's help in Japan at that point, but Truman was like lol we don't want to split the country in half, so let's fucking drop these bombs on them before they can help us and we have to fulfill our promise (or something like that). Two, the U.S. thinks the bomb stopped many more deaths (but I'll argue why maybe not a little later). Plus, Pearl Harbor is always the basic argument. An eye for an eye and whatnot. On the other hand, I find it kind of stupid for them to say it would have stopped the Japanese from coming over and fucking around with our country, because, well, the Japanese have a culture that glorifies death for honor and they were ready to just fight to the death (which is terrifyingly admirable), so wouldn't the bomb just be another part of "dying in honor." Just my thoughts on that. Other countries are going to condemn the attack, because of the inhumanity, especially when it could have been settled diplomatically (and here is where my history gets foggy, but there's a lot we discussed in World History class that supports that and I just cannot think of it >460 I wonder the same thing, too. In a modern context, of course. Back then, some ppl in America actually loved Hitler (TIME'S MAN OF THE YEAR <3 <3 <3). Uh, but I would guess its a cultural disparity, perhaps or the fact that ppl like to forget the past, also. The past is only beneficial to ppl when it supports their argument--that's my take on that subject lol. However, I don't really see ppl fussing over Hitler unless they're comparing him to Donald Trump, which I find particularly funny. Nazis though, everyone's a fucking Nazi now. =)

If you have more questions that'd actually be great. I'm sitting here answering them thinking to myself "these are bullshit questions" b/c I'm doubtful I'll get something like this on the test, but thinking about it on the spot without googling it is actually really great practice. Thanks, dude!

>>463 well this post came out fucked up, it should not be a big block like thatttt. Eh, whatever...

Explain why it was okay to bomb Dresden, but not Kyoto or Tokyo.

Have fun with this one.

I think I've got 2 assignments due on monday and a 2000 words pseudo-dissertation one week after.
Meh, I'll worry tomorrow.

Posting so you don't think me dead

Fucking bs Captcha only works on ipad

>>465 I actually don't know anything about the Dresden bombing (just it's name hahaha). Thanks tho =))) All U.S. history questions and concepts are appreciated.


I was Skyping my friend rn and learned a lot of shit (well, my brain resurfaced the info at least). I forgot the War of 1812 happened at all, but remembering it has really helped me understand some of the relations we had w/ France and Britain at the time. Then I was reminded of the Era of Good Feelings and the Monroe Doctrine and remembering the Monroe Doctrine made me remember the Roosevelt Corollary (LOL DON'T FUCK WITH THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE ONLY WE CAN DO THAT! UGH!). Then if they give me an essay to argue about Washington's neutrality proclamation and whether or not the presidents after upheld it, I could actually write a pretty good essay arguing for or against it. Ugh, beautiful. I'm a little worried about anything past Reagan though, b/c we did not learn anything about George H.W. Bush and beyond. My teacher said it wouldn't be a large focus of our test and I hope that's true. Now, I'm remembering something important about the Span-Am. War--that wonderful, wonderful YELLOW JOURNALISM! Randolph Hearst (hey, hey, that's the grandpa of that one chick--Patty--who got Stockholm's Syndrome after being kidnapped, nice!)

We took a practice test and I missed 10 questions, which in AP standards is not bad. Just depends on how good you are compared to everyone else taking the exam. I'm going to take the practice tests in my book tonight and tomorrow, too. =) Friday is coming soon. I stopped caring about my AP Bio exam, I'm ready to fail =(((

Almost done with the categorisation essay. Research methods assignment will be done tomorrow.
By Saturday I can get started on dismantling arguments about the existence of free will. Fun.

Well, gonna have to start from scratch on grad school. Kent said no.
Eh, c'est la vie.

Well I somehow got the fever, but even though I feel weak and tired all the time, it's still better than the constant runny nose from allergies

I went to see a double feature of Guardians of the Galaxy to celebrate the end of finals week. The second movie was... okay. I really liked the action scenes, the special effects, and even the gooey/cheesey scenes were alright. The only thing I didn't like was the forced humor. Like they really kept cramming it in there. And it was funny, don't get me wrong, it was just too forced for me to actually enjoy it.
Also bought myself some new fake earrings to torture myself with.

APUSH TEST TOMORROW!

I just spent two hours ranting to my mom about U.S. history from 1650 - present. Have to say, I feel pretty confident. Still feel fucked by the 70s and colonial time period, BUUUT I'm going to go over that tonight! My essays will be RAD; I'm sure of it. It is my Manifest Destiny to pass this test. ;)

>>470
Move to Canada. Everything's easier there from what I've heard.

>>474 Strongly considering applying there this time. Gonna do some research on it. Not gonna lie, given the shitshow we're trying to pass as the USA, it might be better for more reasons than one. :/

>>475
Probs a good idea. Lately more and more cringe-worthy studies have made its way past peer review for some unknown reasons.
Won't be long before phd = just another undergrad.
Shoutout to UC Berkeley.

Been ages since I've been on here. Been showing my one friend Shizuo vs Izaya videos.

Dude, that APUSH test was really easyyy! <3 <3 <3

And the things they asked about colonial and 70s were what I knew!

Also, thank you feminism!

Stuck in a rut. Can't find any justification why decision-making criteria can shift with repeated experiments.
Due date's Monday.
Oh well.

So that guy I gave my email to a while back had a gig last night with this band and so I went. Pretty decent music. I appreciate any rock band that can fit both a trumpet and a trombone in it.
But I told him I would try to go, but then the dick didn't put me on the list for people to get in for free because it was past 8 when I got there and he didn't think I was going to show. He owes me $20 now.
I found out that he smokes though... :/

Took my SAT a few hours ago and I feel pretty good about it. Been browsing some of the memes and I can tell which shit I got wrong, but for the most part, I got the majority of the answers right and that makes me feel really good rn. Goal is 1420. =)

Monday is my AP Biology exam. For once in my life, I don't mind getting a bad grade on something =/ I don't regret taking the class, but I do regret not studying on my own after realizing the teacher wasn't going to teach us anything. ='(

>>482 Biology isn't a hard subject though lol and I don't even like science and i think I made like a B in my college Bio class.

>>483 it's AP tho lol and idk how I'm going to do on my exam since all he practically taught us was "chlorophyll doesn't absorb green pigments." It definitely wasn't a hard subject my freshman year when I had a great (and strict, so that doesn't hurt either) teacher; this teacher is bullshit. )=

>>481 Weed? Opium? Crack?
>>484 AP is basically the same as college level. You'll be fine.

>>484 It's the same lol. If you pass the AP exam that means you don't have to take the course in college. You get college credits for it.

That being said, just make sure you know the evolution of plants. The whole non-vascular & vascular, spores & seeds, and all that stuff. And the evolution of animals and the different kingdoms. If you get those down you should be pretty much good. That was like 60% of my college bio class.

>>485 I hope (=
>>486 yeah I know it's college level lol, but I don't know ANYTHING. I'm not going to pass a test if I don't know shit lol. As for studying plants and animals, sure I'll do that: "You got it, dude!"


Lol so my friends unanimously decided (w/o me) that we'd be going to the movies next week and welp, guess that means I can't fucking go. Don't really care at this point. I feel like a fourth wheel, tbh. Just hope they don't think I'm a fucking FLAKE for not going. Maybe they won't care. Ugh, I need new friends. =///

Lmao, my mom this morning tho: "You should have watched the fight last night. He [Canelo <3 <3 <3] won and was very cute to look at." Lol, sad I missed his cuteness, but glad I didn't go out. There had to be at least 20 ppl in our house last night. I was not going to say hi to all of them, ugh. Idek how we fit all those ppl in our living room. Our house isn't small, but it's not particularly big either. X)

ugh. main.

not gonna bother with a full sweep until I'm sure it's chilled.

>>487
>I'm not going to pass a test if I don't know shit

If that were true, it would already be over for me.

>>489
That probably applies to a lot of people.
Bout 80% of population?

>>487 Flaking means leaving at the last minute though

>>487 For the most part, those are typical high school friends. You do need better ones, as do almost all high schoolers. You'll get them, too. Might take a few years, but you'll get there.
Also, don't expect people to get more mature in college. They usually don't get better until they graduate, and are forced to adult for real.

Oh whoa, quite a few people are a bit mad at the newest samurai jack episode, something about it being hetero or something

>>493 Is Samurai Jack homo?

Bump~

Heteronormative, cisgender, homophobic, transphobic , bigot, sexual fluidity, gender spectrum, patriarchy.
Did I miss anything?

>>489 I feel these words are more true than ever. I totally feel like I passed that exam w/o knowing anything and I actually cannot believe it XD

>>493 "Might take a few years" lol, I NEED THEM NOW! jk jk, hopefully that's true for me, dude.


We did show and tell (it was totally impromptu lol) in Spanish class, so I found a fucking choker in my backpack and used that and I said "My favorite chokers are the ones that go REALLY tight." (Y'know except, like, in Spanish) And the whole fucking class laughed, so now they think I'm one of those "Choke me, daddy!" girls. Idk how I didn't notice how that sounded when I wrote it down lol. Good fucking times, man. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lol I'm the one in purple.

>>498 It is. Its true for just about everyone. Unless you're an sociopath or a hermit, you'll be fine.

Gah, I invited that guy over to my apartment and now I regret it. I hate it when humans invade my territory. Why did I do this to myself? Because it's convenient and I'd feel more comfortable staying in my apartment than going over to his.
Or maybe I should send another email saying we can hang out at the library... but I own dvds of the anime we want to watch so just argh....
Socializing sucks.

On another more positive note, I completely finished my rape story so it's exactly the way I want it to be and not cansored for class. Parts 1&2 are up on Wattpad. I'll probs post part 3, the last part, on Thursday when I have free time and fix part 1 too.

>>501 Wish ya luck ;)

In the incredibles mr incredible is blonde and ms incredible had brown hair, how coud they have a daghter with black hair. Their two sons have blonde, and since blonde is recessive thatwould mean ms incredible is a carrier for blonde hair as well, VIOLOT IS NOT THEIR DAUGHTER!

>>503 Or she's just dying her hair black like the emo that she is.

>>503
At least it's not pink.

DO you guys think we have feelings to preserve things that are beneficial to us and get rid of things harmful to us?

>>506
I think that 's instinctual rather than pure feelings.

>>504 SHE'S NOT EMO! Anyone who watched it would know, she's shy, that's why she turns invisible. Someone who is shy wouldn't drastically change their appearance like that.

>>507 But aren't feelings instinctual? Like, you can be instinctically afraid of something.
>>506 No, because if that was the case I would have quit my job a long time ago.

>>508 Dyeing her hair black would not be a dramatic change, especially if her hair was dark brown like her mom's.

What do you call a person who makes doghouses? A BARKenter.

>>510 Lame. Also we have joke thread you can post your jokes to. They range from equally lame to horribly racist. Post 199 gets me everytime though.
http://dollars-bbs.org/random/res/1316744714.html

So the guy says he wants to hang out, I say we can chill at my place and order pizza, and 15 hours later and he still hasn't emailed me back. -_- Fuck humans.

>>511
Well, that works too.
There are different disciplines within philosophy (and psych, for that matter) that consider feelings as purely instinctive, and others that consider feelings to be an extension of free will separate from instincts.
For the second one, the takeaway point is that instinct is something every living organism have. They cause the most primal emotions such as fear and wariness, but not more complex feelings like wanting something.

My grades depict my life way too fuckung well.

>>513
Isn't the last one the most relevant to your future slacking plans?

>>514 Yeah. But it's only a one day class and I forgot about it when the semester started so that's why it's an F. I also can't take any other teacher classes before this one which kinda sucks.

That guy finally emailed my back and said he'd pop in at around six. I told him I didn't care when he came, but I'd be kicking him out at 10 lol. My sister is also here now which makes me feel less awkward about having someone over.

>>515
Sometimes I really can't. tell whether an American A is better than an Australian 70, or whether an F is worse than 50.

>>516 Well,
A = 100-90
B = 89-80
C = 79-70
D = 69-60
F = 59-0

When your English teacher tells you, you're "too lava lamp" and "hippy dippy" for him. Oh, gosh, I practically died of laughter. He asked me if autocorrect told me to add "man" at the end of the sentence. Tbhhhhhh!!!

=) Today's my day to relax. Tmrrw is my AP English Lang. & Comp. test. I'm getting a 5 on this one for sure lol.

>>517
but I heard that it's an unstandardised score?
Something about education institudes trying to pass their students as top achievers so they give as much A as possible.

>>519 Ehh, given that education is mostly governed by individual state governments and not the federal government that would depend highly on the individual state itself. One state could be doing that and then there could be forty-nine that aren't. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

>>520
Well. maybe. I just find it a liiiiiiiiitle bi t suspicious about how many Americans brag about (or aim for) straight As online (amd in movies, ofc) when the high scores are supposed to be reserved for those blessed by the Gods of education.
On a side note, the grades at Melbourne uni are as follow:
H1 : 80-90 (Bravo)
H2A : 75-79 (mildly. hurray)
H2B : 70-74 (slightly average)
H3 : 65-69 (average)
P : 50-64 (at least you passed)
N : 0-49 (No)

Plus since I know humans have the tendency to not set any goal that doesn't give instant gratification, it means that US netizens have a pretty decent chance for straight As. Unlike, say, Germany.

>>521
*H1: 80-100

>>522 Thats a pretty broad range to qualify as "bravo..."

>>521 Two notes here.

1) Homework, take-home projects, and class participation are a big part of your score in America. Tests, despite being what you spend most of your time preparing for, don't actually count for much and tend to be fairly easy if you didn't daze off in class / don't struggle with the subject in general. Most of your grade is completion based ("did you do the shit I told you to waste your time on?") rather than accuracy based ("did you do that shit well or actually learn anything from it?").

2) We have weighted scores above 100 in America, which is where the "blessed by the gods" bit comes in. Certain classes and assignments are graded higher/lower than the standard and influence your overall score. (This does depend on the district / state / teacher, though.) For example, our district had four or five different class levels, and even if you always scored a 91+ with an "A" on your report card, your GPA would be affected differently depending on what level the class was.

Basically, "A" is the base grade you're supposed to get for doing all your homework and being decent at tests and memorization.

Students who especially excel at studying in America will take higher level classes (AP and above) so that their A's count as 6's instead of 5's or 4's on their GPA, giving them a competitive edge. (4.0 normally implies straight A's.) ex. I took honor classes (I prefer the learning style), which bumped my A's to 5's, B's to 4's, etc. That also bumped my final GPA to ~3.6, even though I failed a class and got some low grades (fuck history).

>uni
Ignore me lol.
Thought we were talking high school.

Eh, I'll leave it there.

>>523
That's pretty much the only range available. And the only score you need to know. They only numerise your final subject score.
Your assignments, unless it's an online quiz, is graded by H1 and the like. For the finals, they won't even reveal your scores.
Meh, I reckon above 78 is already considered good in this place. Depending on the subject, ofc.

Incidentally, even among the relatively easy courses like Psychology, getting above 90 is like playing dark souls on hard mode.

^ I'd like to point out that this entire conversation is based off of:
1. The idea that our school systems are rigged to give kids higher grades then they deserve.
2. You thinking that I'm not smart enough to deserve my As.

Concerning 1, I'm not saying it's not 100% percent true because different states = different rules, facilities, and teachers which I have no knowledge of, but even keeping that in mind I don't think any teacher would give a kid an A if he's failing the class when giving out a C would suffice for minimal passing.
When it comes to 2... fight me.

>>528
Did I not say America netizens?
More like, your school gives a mark for a one-day attendance so I can't really compare it with anything.

Also, being rich as an individual has nothing to do with it since we're talking about things in a cultural level. The most convincing argument that I found was that grade inflation happens because of a combination of capitalist economy + inferiority complex.
Some surveys run by the teachers union or shit found that the average grade in lots of school (uni and HS alike) had inflated from C in the 80s to As in the 90s. It's like reorganizing the value of currency, just because it seems higher doesn't mean it's worth higher. But since there's no grade above A, there comes the ceiling effect. Probably doesn't mean much domestically, but let us foreigners roll our eyes in resignation.

/end of sermon.

Probs a good article. Teacher's tenures also depend on their students' grades.

There's a captcha now? Been a good couple of years since I've been on here. Still shit posts on main though I see xD

I just found out that it's possible to make porridge with milk. And that salt is not the specified condiment.
Sweet porridge. Can't decide if it's weird or gross.

I just found a stash of reference sheets from dozens of anime in my old band folder. Shit had character names, location descriptions, the episodes / chapters I left off on, the sites I used, etc. all written out in detail, one per series...

Sometime I forget that I used to be a serious weeboo.

Like I was the fucker that actually said kawaii desu to their fellow weeb friends at school.

>>534

Well AP exams are over

omg i just found a tamagotchi

Just attended my graduation rehearsal. I'm apparently graduating magna cum laude. Also, my school is super skimpy on the champange. Tasted like goddamn Welch's.

Me: hey you wanna be interviewed for newspaper?
Teacher: SURE WHAT'S THE QUESTION?!
Me: Well, since you're a UC Berkeley alumna I was wondering what you thought about the whole Ann Coulter situation?
Teacher: Oh, boi, ughhh, let me think about that

And then she never got back to me ='(((

My AP exam today was gud stuff. I had to write three essays and one of them's a quote essay, so you basically give them your opinion on a quote and it was basically asking people's opinion on "fake it till you make it" and I wrote that essay snarky as fuck and I'm sad, b/c I'm never going to see my essay again. ='(((

Recently got asked if I would write for a conservative website and I'm p. happy about this. =')))

Tmmrw I have a phone call interview. Very nervous about this. ='|||

I'm low key pissed at my sister. She said she was going to make Mac&Cheese w/broccoli for dinner, but I told her before she even began cooking that she shouldn't and I didn't want any because I had pizza in the fridge. She came into my room later and told me it was done and I of course gave 0 indication that I was interested in the food she made because I was eating pizza.
Next morning I go into the kitchen and there are litterally still pots full of the shit she made just sitting on the stove top. I fucking spent an hour and half cleaning the kitchen on Tuesday and now it fucking reeks and it's fucking filthy again.
Her excuse was since I never said I wouldn't eat when she came into my room she just assumed I would. Yeah and I know she's going to pull the stupid rule of whoever cooks doesn't have to do dishes as an excuse to not clean up her mess.

Oh and of course when I mention working today she says that she woke up at 3am and couldn't fall back asleep so obviously not. The fucking twit spent the entire night/morning on YouTube. You can't complain about not being able to fall back sleep when you didn't even try.

>>536 what version
So trump just fired the FBI director

>>540 A couple from 2004. Tamagotchi Connection. They need new batteries, though.

Did my phone interview today (this is for the Red Cross!!!). The lady told me she'd let everyone know tomorrow if they're chosen and I think I did fine. I think I'll get in. I'd be really stoked if I did. Apparently another chick at school also tried out. Would be rad if we both got in, so that I could be around someone I know. =)

The editor-in-chief of my school newspaper said I should try out for EIC this year. I'm considering it. I was only going to be a section editor, but maybe I should do EIC. I've significantly improved and I clearly enjoy what I'm doing (now at least lol). It would be cool. =)

Things are looking up for me. X)

>>542 yes yes very excited. I've been selected to volunteer for the Red Cross this summer. Rad.

>>543
As a what?
Mweh, it's not that exciting. It'll feel old in a few days. Personal experience.
Incidentally, my local shop had about 200 people applying in the last 2-3 monthsssss. Only about 10-15 showed up for the interview. Rad indeed.

So during my "I'm hating life" mood on Thursday I went to the library to just get out of the house and do my own shit. I finally uploaded the rest of my Not SG Fanfic rape story
https://www.wattpad.com/400684987-prequel-to-a-not-sg-fanfic-that-i%27m-not-currently

and I started working on A Not TVD FanFic. Like TVD had something (plot wise) and then the author just kinda got fucking lost in it (and was also just kind of a shitty writer) and the show cut it all out instead of just trying to work with it and the tv show is kinda lame and whiny imo. So now I'm just reworking it, changing characters and condensing the fuck out of it. Also making it BL and letting my Bonnie x Damien ship sail.
Spent an hour working on a cheat sheet with all the characters on it, I didn't even get through all of them. TVD has a shit ton of characters. I actually realized that there were some that I was forgetting earlier today. I'm already at 12 on the sheet and I'm still not anywhere near finished.

>>545
There's a character in existence named Bonnie?

>>546 Yeah. In the tv show she's a pretty black teenager with long curly black hair and a tad sassy and very independent. In the books she's short with pale white skin (often described as doll-like) with curled red hair and is very childlike/innocent.
I'm going off mostly the book descriptions for my fanfic, but I'm changing her to a guy and I haven't quite settled on a good name for him yet.
TVD = The Vampire Diaries by the way

>>547
Oh that series. Stopped watching after first season.
I remember the plot goes something like this.
Event A -> Kiss -> Event B -> Kiss -> Event C -> Some melodrama -> sex -> Event D -> Big reveal -> Sex
Rinse & repeat.

"Best" friend: Ugh, why is *teacher in charge of AP Lit next year* making us take a diagnostic test, that's so unfair!
Me in head: Are you actually fucking whining over the fact that you have to show you can handle the class? UHGUHGUHUGH

I can't stand my friends anymore. Ppl really. I'm just going through my moods (haaaa this one's been lingering), but srsly I'm getting so annoyed with everyone, esp. my "best" friend. I'm getting sick of all their fucking whining. "Oh, no, I actually have to try." Yeah, no fucking shit. Now get to it or don't get in the fucking class. It bothers me even more b/c my friend knows she's in a shit position. She doesn't want to do anything, but she wants to get into a good college. Her grades aren't good (pretty sure she has to make up some classes, but she doesn't want to go to summer school, b/c omg time away from BULLSHIT) and she isn't involved in any extracurriculars, she does nothing in her free time except fuck around on social media. I mean she knows she's in deep shit b/c even she says it. Idk, it just pisses me off. EVEN MORE WHEN SHE TRIES TO PUT ME DOWN FOR WHAT I DO! She told me pretty recently "I hope you don't get into Yale, so I can laugh at all your hard work" and that wasn't a fucking joke. Like wtaf "best" friend? I hate being around her so much and it's even worse to fake that you like being around someone and I'm so glad school is almost over so I don't have to deal with her for a good amount of time.
------------

OMG IN BETTER (eh, it's more bittersweet) NEWS! MY WHITE SUPREMACIST AUSTRALIAN FRIEND, he had a breakdown sorta, he was really depressed y'know, b/c he realized his white supremacist beliefs were fucking terrible. He finally saw the hypocrisy (horseshoe theory and whatnot) of what he was preaching and then was like "whoa, my videos are utter garbage," which personally, he had GOOD points, but I'm glad he's grown from it. He seems so much better honestly. Sucks, we're never going to talk again, but I know he'll be better for it. I told him I'd catch him on the flip side to which he responded "Yeah, but there'll be no catching me anymore, friend." D'X I told him "you never know" and that was that. =/ Sometimes I try to find the significance for why ppl are put into my life and I cannot think of anything for this kid. I suppose it was a chance encounter. We were very much similar is all I can really say. Practically the same age, going through all the same bullshit. I just wonder what flipped the switch in his head. He asked me if I had any questions for him, but I said no. Twitter deleted the messages already, which really sucks, b/c I don't want to forget him, y'know, but whatever. Like I told him, I'd catch him on the flip side. =) It'll be alright.

>>544 oh barely saw this =/

I'm either going to be writing articles or making videos for them. =)

$870 for a book. Just wow.

>>551 Who would seriously pay that much for a book? it seems crazy if you ask me. Even I would not pay that much for a book.

Graduated today. Yaaaaaaaaay.

Vegan cheese alternative tastes like dust.

>>553 congrats c:

>>553
Grats.

>>554
The only thing good about vegan is raw vegetables. Processed products? Nah =))
And that vegan catfood should be made illegal.

Got my yearbook and I can't believe I didn't get the Wildest Hair superlative. The girl who did just has messy hair she never brushes. I, on the other hand, had hair that was purple on one side and blue on the other with parts that were straight and others that were curly. No matter how hard I tried, it would not be tamed. I was robbed of the title. :/

On another subject, I spent 10 hours yesterday volunteering at a charity event and I'm still exhausted and I feel sick. Totally worth it though.

Someone asked me today if I was going to be graduating HS soon. I graduated high school TWO YEARS AGO. Why can't I just look like a college kid? Instead I'm just a perpetual kitten.

>>553 Congrats. How are your grad school plans coming along?

>>554 Why even try it?

>>557 Unfortunately, I'll have to reapply in the fall. S'whatever.

>>557 It wasn't intentional. A frozen pizza bamboozled us.

The picture looked so tasty. Then we cooked it. And cooked it... and cooked it......

"why isn't the cheese melting?"
"why isn't the crust burning??"
"maybe it's just old. it's cooked anyway, I'm hungry, let's take it out"
>take one bite
"OH GOD IT TASTES SO ARTIFICIAL WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF CHEMICALS ARE IN THIS"
"why does the cheese taste like dust"
"the mushrooms were definitely canned"
"i bet this cheese is really tofu, that's why it wouldn't melt"
>check the packaging: "gluten free" "milk free" "meat free"
"called it"
>first ingredient is "purified water"
>mushrooms are the only ingredient without "organic" next to its name
>the fake mozzarella content alone takes up half the ingredient list

It was a fucking vegan pizza with a real pizza on the cover, some serious false marketing bullshit. Who has the conscious to make and sell this shit anyway? Who buys that shit except by accident? No way did anyone intentionally spend money on that awful trash. I don't care how vegan you are, you still have to have taste buds of some kind.

We each got one bite and immediately threw it out. Couldn't even give it to the dogs.

>>559
vegans.

>>599 well that stinks, did you order a pizza after?
>>533 nice job getting your koalafications

>>561
Pretty sure it's the wrong country for koala puns.

>>561 lol I'm not that rich

I think we made spaghetti instead.

>>562 Was Boop responding to me? Cuz >>533 wasn't me.
But thanks, everybody. You're real swell.
And yes, its definitely the wrong country for koala puns (I'm American, unfortunately).
Got a freah batch of new artists to check out. That should keep me busy for about a couple days.

>>563
How much does pizza cost over there?

>>565 Depends. I can go to a small pizza joint and get a pizza for $5-6 or I can get Dominoes which has the best pizza imo and spend about $9-15 depending on if there are good coupon options.

>>566 A frozen pizza from the supermarket costs about $2-5 depending on brands and sizes.

>>566
And the delivery cost?
Does Dominoes have value pizzas over there?

>>564 Congrats, bud

AND HOLY FUCKING SHIT CAPTCHA FINALLY FUCKING WORKS

>>565 I mean, if you get it from the foodbank, nothing lol.

But if you're ordering food to be delivered, $15 minimum here. Gas money isn't worth the price difference of pickup either.

Went to my dad's side of the fam today and I'm so worn out honestly. I'm going through a lot rn and this isn't helping my case and i just wish my dad wasn't the way he is.

>>569 Oh hey, I forgot you existed.

>>564 yup I was, dont know why I typed in 533
Hope everyone had a nice mothers day

Me: Things are going good
Life: HAHAHA FUCK YOU

My mom is fucking insane. We bought her some nice patio furniture for her for Mother's day and we assembled it in secret to surprise her. She saw it after we set it out and was literally like "What's that? When did we get a green chair? I think the neighbors have been over on our side!" I just died laughing. And then she was still just like confused and asking why we had patio furniture and I was like "What do you mean? Happy Mother's day. What else would this be for?" Granted Mother's day was yesterday, but still me and sis did tell her that we were coming to visit her to give her her Mother's day gifts.
On top of the furniture we were helping her set up her garden for this year.

>>574 Did you fail one of your tests?

>>575 man, that'd be much better atm

Challenge of the day for English class: Find a prosaic song. Any ideas?

RTT:
Still here wondering why feminism still exist when so many people hate them. There are better cults to pledge your allegiance to. Scientology, Satanism, Piefascism, or even that church of flying spaghetti monster.

>>580 Feminism as a cult? Maybe the extremists, but not all.
Also, kudos for coining "Piefascism."

>>580 I mean there still needs to be some equality in like india, Islam, and some parts of Asia

>>582 Feminism is barely about equality. It's about women trying to prove their better than men. But you are right about some Asian/middle east countries needing more equality.

>>583 Gah, I died a little when I noticed my spelling/grammar error.

>>581
I gratefully accept the credit.
Believing that women are the most systematically oppressed species in the planet and that they have to teach kindergartners not to rape people?
Delusional beliefs + manic obsession. Pretty cult-ish if I do say so myself. And no, not all feminists are like that. Just about, say, 80%?

>>582
This. >>583
And for the poor fools who say "that's not what feminism is about, look up your dictionary!" I impart unto thee these words of wisdom:
BY DICTIONARY DEFINITION, A SWASTIKA IS A HOLY SYMBOL. NOW GET ONTO YOUR KNEES AND PROSTATE YOURSELF BEFORE THE NAZI FLAG.
Otherwise, screw dictionaries. They're rarely accurate anyway.

Anyway, Islam's a lost cause. India, won't happen for another century or so. Asia, need to topple China first and everything will follow.

>>585

Although Prostate works just as well.

>>585 feminism is cancer ;)


Some of the junior class is reading The Catcher in the Rye right now (they do literature circles, YEAH lmao, lit circles, I think it's actually better that way...more books, various discussion, whole class won't cheat off of each other, very centered...whatever!!!) Anyway, my "bestie" is in the group reading Catcher and she says today, "HOLDEN IS MY SPIRIT ANIMAL!" And I'm cringing SO hard inside. If Holden was real, he'd call my friend "PHONY." Who hasn't heard the phrase *insert thing/person you're obsessed with* is my spirit animal"? It's so basic and sounds like the fakest compliment you could give something. I wanted to roll my eyes out of my sockets when she said that.

She said something like "He doesn't even need to be mad about anything." You know, I actually went into that book already with that mindset, b/c I watched the South Park episode about it. So I was reading it, trying to get pissed off at Holden, well, opposite happened (clearly), and umm, idk, a lot of ppl see it as that, I think he's realistic. My current teacher says by the time you're 22 you'll get over Catcher, but I guess I'll find out in 6 yrs.

Sorry to people who are offended when I say this...
but...


Quack.

>>588 How could you?

>>588
You have insulted the revered master pie.
PREPARE TO BE HUNTED DOWN.

>>588 What the fuck did you just fucking say, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

>>587 I still kinda like Holden at 22. Granted, I realize he's a whiny little kid who's struggling to face reality, but then again, that was me at his age.
>>588 Hatash, I see you so rarely in here, but when you show up, controversy always follows.
>>590>>591 Hunted down by Boop, apparently. Keep a low profile, Hatash.

>>592 Hatash is more controversial than Lovely?


WHAT HAS THIS WORLD COME TO?! QUACK.

>>593 Lovely's controversial? I thought she was just extreme.

>>593
Well, it's 2017 so..
You can blame 3 or more of the followigs:
-Humans
-Dogs
-Climate change
-USA
-Puppies
-Trump
-Clinton
-You
-Meme
-Life

>>595 Eh, Clinton's pretty 2016, Neko.

>>594 I'm both

>>592 It's always the plan. Kappa

I won first place for creativity in the boat race

>>599 GG

>>598 Kappa? What about Kappa?

Parents started complaining about the senior quotes in the yearbook to my school, saying they were "inappropriate". And my quote, "My grades may be straight, but I'm not", is one of the many they claimed to be inappropriate. Because apparently people being not straight is inappropriate?? Man, it's 2017. I thought people would get over the fact that LGBT people exist, but I guess we're still bad. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

>>602 Open discussion of sexuality in general is still weird here. The US is simply too sexually repressed, though I suppose our movies and advertisements would lead one to think the opposite.

>>602 but I mean, it's still a lot of improvement, I mean people in my state are okay with people being gay and guys acting like girls. I'm sure most states are good with the lgb, not sure about trans though

>>602 that's actually pretty funny lol. In terms of the "inappropriateness" tho...in general, I guess ppl don't like "controversial" things (even tho we live for it lol). Saying something like that isn't necessarily controversial tho, I'd say it's bold, and I think when ppl get shocked by bold statements, they deem them inappropriate even when they aren't. Inappropriate is completely subjective, too ;) Your senior quote is fucking rad.

Went to a science fair today. Pretty cool. Sucks that we only had 20 minutes for the only cool thing we did there really. We looked at booths for those 20 minutes and my friends and I talked to this chick (she was a foreigner, too, I LOVED heer accent) who did her project on perception of death pre-Black Plague and post-Black Plague. It was pretty interesting, man! There were a lot of cute guys there, too, and you know being smart is always very, very helpful. Then we met this therapy dog (he's going to be on the Ellen Show in 2 months, so if you watch that show, be on the look out lmao) who works with celebrities. So I met a dog who has met Paris Hilton and George Clooney and lots of other ppl I don't give a shit about, but give a shit about b/c the E! Network tells me to care about them.

Oh my gosh my eye is starting to twitch again. =(((
It's been such a long time since I've been twitchy in my eye...and it's sooooo bothersome. I can't even blink without my eye rapidly twitching afterwards wtf. It's only one, but srsly...ugh.

"I can't be friends with Eric. He's too twitchy." Just switch Eric for Lovely. Ugh.

Me: *looks up causes*
List: CAFFEINE
Me: Oh...uh, is this what I sacrifice for coffee and Coke?

What are some cheap foods to give to 35 people
>>606 tea is a good alternative for caffine

>>606 My eyelid goes all twitchy when I'm lacking sleep, am uber stressed, or a loud noise startles me.

So my iCloud kept telling me that it was getting full so I decided to hop on and delete some stuff off it. I thought it worked like a backup of sorts, nope. If you delete something off your cloud you delete it off your computer. Luckily restore is a thing. But tbh, I deleted over a 1000 files and only restored less than 300. I left the rest in the trash. I'm now only using 3/5gb of storage on my cloud and it is literally 90% pages documents.

Also, super loud, scary thunder. :/

>>601
Secret military code. Kappa

>>604
I still find it confusing that people's attitudes in the US can be more or less generalized to the states'.

>>607
Instant NOODLES. Emphasis on noodles.

>>607 tea has caffeine actually, but umm doesn't matter, I fucking hate teaaaaaaaa (unless it's like that artificial raspberry kind...like the one that Brisk makes)

>>608 same minus the loud noises

Newspaper: K turn in this application for editor positions by Friday. Get two teacher recs.
Me: Ok, let's do this *procrastinates and now has to find two teachers to recommend her tomorrow*

I hate being socially awkward...and busy lol. I'm so glad it's literally just an "Is this student good at *insert arbitrary action related to school*? Check Y/N?"

Tonight's dinner: half a honeydew melon.
I feel vegetarian.
It's not a good feeling.

>>603
Yeah, I knew some people would find it weird or just be a little uncomfortable, but to call it inappropriate and demand refunds? That's... a bit of a stretch.
>>604
Arizona is pretty good about gay people. They're not like.. hateful towards us, but still a little uncomfortable. There's still a lot of shit towards trans people though. Ironically, there was a senior quote about being trans that they didn't say was inappropriate, but I think it just flew over their heads.
>>605
Pretty funny, indeed. I've been laughing at the parents' angry comments. Thanks, by the way! I love my quote. I actually used it to come out to my parents.

>>612
That's called being petty, dear. Probs wanted those $$ for wine & dining.

>>613 "Dear?" That sounds kinda condescending. Not sure why.

>>614 Because it's coming from Neko.

When your friend is being difficult about the movies. Kms. (=

>>614
Because I was trying to impersonate Rapunzel's step-mother.

So I just read some random Jehovah's Witness pamphlet lying on the table. Apparently Jesus is one of the four horsemen and Satan is basically the earth itself.
It's followed by a testimony of a convert, apparently he became interested when he saw how respectful the witnesses were compared to baseball supporters.
Where should I start? Meh, no, he's a lost cause.

I called into work and had the most wonderful nap. My sis and her bf have left the apartment too so I have the place to myself. Might take another nap.

I bought season one of Fringe. Fringe is one of the best live action tv shows to ever grace the world.

On an unhappy note. My sister is making pot brownies and the entire apartment reeks from the weed. In case anyone is wondering - marijuana is still illegal in Ok.

King Arthur was cool. Charlie Hunnam and Jude Law are baes. Two of my friends were just making out during the whole movie. It was p. funny.

Ate at Johnny Rocket's today. Loved it. Hate my friends tho, they didn't want to leave a tip. What kind of a person does that? We totally undertipped him, too, which was even worse, but to put the cherry on top my friend was like "Here's your tip" in the most condescending way to the dude when we handed him the money. Ugh.

>>620 As someone who comes from a country where tipping isn't a practice, why the fuck do you need to tip people anyway? It's kinda stupid that you need to pay for the wages of workers directly, and not the shop actually giving them enough money to live.

>>621 The tips are considered part of their wages and as such their paychecks are very meager. And yeah it is a very stupid system. Short answer as to why = waiting tables is generally a woman's job.

Wowza that last samurai jack episode

>>621 In many states, servers get less than minimum wage.
Usually, only children don't know this. :P

>>621 oh, huh, yeah...i forget other countries don't tip lmao. You're tipping them for their service, y'know. Think of it as a sign of gratitude. Unless the waiter sucks, then think of it as a custom. ;) A lot of ppl do it b/c they know they're going to keep going to an establishment. If you're a good tipper, you'll get better service, extra perks, etc.

Remembering that I have to do the announcements at school on Tuesday (= Scared. I'd really love to be the announcer...

the admin for the japanese dollars forum is shutting down the site and i remembered just how long i've been doing this whole dollars thing... i have to admit, i'm pretty sad that the japanese forum is being shut down. and it got me thinking, how much longer is this bbs gonna last?

i've been "in the dollars" for so long now that if saw my old posts most of what i'd feel is embarrassment tbh. but then again, it's also been so long that it doesn't really feel like i made those posts.

>>624 You do realize he is not from the States right? He lives in New Zealand.

>>627
He's a kiwi.

>>621
Since I'm a conspiracy theorist..
The point of tipping is to screw the official records about your earnings. Since you get taxed more the more you earn, it only makes sense to downplay it a bit (a LOT). It's mighty fine since those tax money are just gonna be wasted on another nuclear bomb anyway. Plus it's a way to make the prices look cheap to customers, so it's also a business strategy.

But it doesn't sit well with non-USA citizens because whenever we come to the US, we're gonna have to calculate whatever the service and state tax were (which most people wouldn't know), so it's basically a systematic conning.

>>623 Tbh, it was what I expected. I thought it was good, but it felt rushed.
Now give us a Samurai Jack MMO

Other than that, an actual RT.
Those fidget spinners are getting out of control.

>>629 Fuck fidget spinners.

>>629
You know, they coulda just watch dog videos. Nothing makes you focus on the background better than moping dogs. That ought to improve selective attention.

>>629 Not sure why they're a thing. Thankfully, they're a fad that'll die in a few months or so... or at least that's what I hope.

"Indonesia the peaceful and tolerant pluralistic country"
Ha. Ha. Ha.
How low is the standard for tolerance again?

>>632
I have no idea why they became popular either. If you don't need to fidget/stim, then they're just toys that serve no point. Seeing how most people don't need to fidget/stim, it confuses me as to why they gained popularity. They are helpful if you actually need them, though. I don't own one (yet), but friends have let me borrow theirs, and wow, they help calm my nerves so much. I actually managed to talk to someone I didn't know because my brain was focused on spinning it instead of panicking over socializing. It can be a great tool, if you actually need it. Otherwise, people need to stop obsessing over them.

>>634 I just straight up don't see the point of them. I do just fine in my classes simply by fucking around with my pencil. Twirling a pencil between your fingers is downright therapeutic.

Going to the movies tonight with the email guy. Snippet of our conversation over the matter.
Me: And before we do anything I'm just gonna go ahead and set the boundaries: It's not a date. I don't date lol. We're hanging out as friends.
Him: I'm cool with it just being chilling, I'm also cool if it evolves into more at some point, but for now it totally doesn't need to be.
Me: There's no evolving bro, we're not pokemon lmao. I'm too ace for any of that shit.

RTT: I need to clean my kitchen. I think my disposal finally went kerplunk.

Starbucks is not coffee. Repeat: STARBUCKS IS NOT COFFEE.

What the actual fuck?? The text on BestBuy receipts disappears over time? What is this disappearing ink bullshit??

If they're heat printing on zinc paper and it's sensitive to certain temperatures / etc, they need to disclose this shit, especially when most warranties rely on keeping the receipt. This is fucking nonsense.

>>634 Most people do fidget to some degree. It's not limited to those with anxiety / adhd / etc., so there's no reason it shouldn't have mainstream marketing and use.

>>635 please teach me how to spin a pencil. seriously. I can twirl a baton, but pencils are fucking beyond me. They just fly out and hit someone halfway through any attempt.

>>637
The key is the weight and shape.
You'd want a pencil that's not too light like those 30cents crap. Plus it has to be more or less cylindrical (technically they're polygons but meh), not like Faber Castel's triangular pencils.
Also don't sharpen your pencil in case it flies off and stab someone's eyeball.

>>637

>>639 I've seen this video before. It didn't help.

I tried watching it with the audio off this time and totally got it, though. The key is to keep your middle finger moving with it longer than you'd expect, so the pencil gets enough spin to reach the other finger. Adding more pressure makes it go farther in the direction it's moving but doesn't help anchor the spin itself (which is where I've been derping).

>>638 >>639 many thank, bbs. new skill acquired.

I'm sitting next to my crush...things couldn't be better. <3

Math class always makes me sleepy, no matter how much I sleep

I need to probably take more time into my animation schoolwork with all the spare time I got...Maybe...

^ Jesus guys I'm not doing like flip tricks with a pencil. When I said twirl it between my fingers I meant like how you roll/flip a coin over the top of your fingers except the pencil goes between your fingers and not on top.
I start at my index and when I reach my pinky finger I flip the pencil over and twirl it back towards my thumb and when I reach my thumb I flip it over again until I reach my pinky again.
My fingers are not coordinated enough to do any of that shit. I can barely get them to click on the right keys on the keyboard.


I'm peeved at sis as usual. She keeps insisting that my hanging out with email guy tonight is a date even though I've made it perfectly clear that it's not and I'm not interested in him in that way. Of course though since I'm female and he male and we're going to see a movie together it has to be a date, can't just be friends (and I wouldn't even consider us that yet at this point) hanging out at the movies. If we were both the same sex no one would even consider it as a date, it would be seen exactly as it is (even though homo ftw of course). Grrr, humans are stupid. -_-

Ugh, I have to do the announcements tmrrw. I'm so nervous. I actually only have 4 things to say, so that's actually good...Unless ofc, the softball teacher adds something...then I'm screwed cuz his announcements are loooooooooooooooooong.

I have to do holidays. I'm going to do 2. Tmrrw is World Turtle Day and Lucky Penny Day...Not sure how I can say something cool abt these holidays, but I will try my best...

Wish me luck ;)

>>645 Stop complaining about it then. The less you care, the less they care.

>>646 GL

Sorry guys, but I'm leaving you for this board instead.

Nojk.
Source is /u/nited Va-11 Hall-a on the Google Play Store.

>>647 I don't care that she insists on being an asshole, that's normal. It bothers me though that she decides to tell our boss and just about everyone and anyone within earshot that I'm going on a "date" even though I'm not.

I enjoyed King Arthur though. The music they had for it was fucking intense. They were playing tribal music during some of the fight scenes and it was pretty epic. I also enjoyed all the flashbacks and flash forwards they used to tell the story, it was very refreshing and Ocean's-esque.
The actual plot though... not very King Arthur. Merlin wasn't even in it, nor Morgana or Guinevere.

>>636 Just now figuring this out?
>>648 Saw that in the store, didn't know what it was. Still kinda don't, I guess.
>>642 Lovely, is this you?

Nah. Was triggered by a dood saying "let's get coffee at that starbucks"

I finished storyboarding/outlining arc one of my not tvd fanfic. I feel dead. bleghghgj. I'll probs start scripting it Thursdsys. We'll see how well I can get myself into a flowerchild's mind lol. Why I always torture myself by writing in 1st person pov I have no clue.

Imma go to the store and buy snacks and shampoo.

>>648 same

>>645 oh, you meant literal twirling... oops lol.

>>650 It's pretty much a chan site, but mainly text. It's a fanmade app that is supposed to act like the phones on the game VA-11 HA11-A (Cyberpunk Bartender Game(pretty much a Visual Novel). I'm a fan of the game and didn't realize the app as it just randomly appeared on my google play. So I was bored and just went on it. The Burg Board on it was just random, though.
>>653 Join me in glorious burg

I'm bored. Need to take a shower.

Not too sweet, not too salty, dry but not too crumbly.
10/10 fort shortbread fingers.
What's a shortbread anyway?

I haven't been on in a while...

Performed for my school today at our multicultural show. It was k. Hope I do better tmrrw.

My fem sjw friend: These ppl shouldn't wear clothing from other cultures. That's cultural appropriation smh!
**There's a fashion show that is included before our performances**
Me to friend: Since your a feminist and believe women should wear whatever they want, but also believe people shouldn't wear clothes from other cultures, then what?
Fem sjw friend: You got me there.

Idk man, she thinks I'm insensitive to other ppl--not false--but I don't think ppl should be told what cultures they can and can't indulge in, and I think it sucks that type of idea is pretty widespread. I'm mixed race and I live in one of the most multicultural states, I get to interact with so many dif. ppl. Why shouldn't I be allowed to participate in other traditions, wear clothing from other cultures, represent other cultures, etc. if I want? Does me not being a part of that culture mean I'm excluded and if so, what makes that okay?

Heyo! So I've lately been craving a Hachimenroppi x Tsukishima Roleplay, where the shipping is Izuo, so Roppi would be on top but I can never find anyone to play Roppi's role. ;v; If anyone is looking to join me in a roleplay such as, feel free to message me @ kishouchan.dollars@gmail.com ! Thank you ;v;

^ Oh look a person who actually used the RTT for its intended purpose instead of just creating a thread/spam. >658 You should point out to your friend that 90% of the clothes we wear are chinese.

>>657 You haven't missed much.

^ Same. seems to be that way.
It is however, entertaining nonetheless.

>>658 >>660
Also mention that everyone wears t-shirts in practically every other country.

>>660>>662 lmao I actually did. She said "manufactured clothing doesn't count." (= ppl love making exceptions that apply to themselves!

>>656 "Shortbread is a biscuit traditionally made from one part white sugar, two parts butter, and three parts flour. Other ingredients like ground rice or cornflour are sometimes added to alter the texture."
- Wikipedia

>>663 What the fuck does that even mean? Are peeps handmaking hijabs, kippahs, saris, and yukatas? I was pretty sure most of that shit was made in factories. Like naw everyone's just got fucking silk worm colonies and cotton farms in their backyards to make that shit with?? Lovely, I don't care how much of a friend this chick is to you she's not very fucking bright.

Gaw, I have early work shift.

Also, email guy says that Danger5 be the best tv show. Australians' opinions?

>>666 yup...she says stupid shit daily abt social and political issues.
--------

So for our multicultural thing we had cards with one of our "identities" on it and I'm not big on that whole thing, but I asked them to put "mixed race" on mine and so they asked, "Can we put mulatto?" and I'm here like "Sure" b/c Nirvana and my mom saw it and was like "I don't like that they put that on your card." In my head I'm like, "Yeah, but if I could, I would have let them put spigger on there for sure lmao."

Next year will be my last year doing it so I'm going to do something really spectacular. Californian culture b/c I LOVE MY STATE TO DEATH. I'll have a little speech beforehand, I've got it pretty planned out rn...I think it'll be gr8. My friends want to know what I'm doing, but they are going to CRINGE if I tell them what song I'm singing, so I'd rather they just fucking wait. It's a surprise. ;)

I have to choose a song to sing for my Theater & Film Club, too. =/ That's what I'm going to spend this 3 day weekend doing.
