We don't have one.

We don't even have a mascot. We have a symbol for our school which is the black hawk, but that's it. :(

Liar.

When I open up my browser and see that Inbox (1) it's like someone hit me with an instant-joy stick.

Is something wrong with me if I cracked up when the car slammed into them?

Also, I think I saw this in health class a long time ago. But seriously, it's quite hilarious.

its understandable but when you go say with a date its good sophmore year and im going with a date im stoked cause im not the lucky of a guy well you all know that im on newgrounds so it explains alot

Yeah, but if your date wants to go to homecoming, well that's your opinion, but going to homecoming is what all the "popular" kids do. And I do not want to be "popular". It's pointless. I have a girlfriend, and she'd rather go to the haunted house than homecoming. It's just plain more fun. It's kinda like what the rejects do instead of school-sponsored activities. And rejects are more fun to be around with. Like my friend Matt has hair way down past his shoulders and wears chains, and is way more cool than the popular kids who all they talk about is "OMG HE SAID THAT!? WHAT A BI-OTCH". Sooo, yeah.

Yes, and we also need the saint's aura, the chat to be finished, an outbox in the PMs, a way to see if someone's answered to your comment on their blog, the list goes on and on and on...

A quick google search gives me this image. Looks like it would be maybe alcoholic, but if I saw something like this in a store, I'd probably buy it. Cool story too.

Ehhh, this chick at the haunted house I always work at sounds incredibly british. At first I thought she was just screwing around, but she actually has a kickass british accent.

You know, some guy creates the bets art on earth, but only when he is furious enough to kill, and maybe sometimes does, maybe create artwork out of those.

I don't know, I'd probably see it.

Sounds pretty kickass if ya ask me. I'd see it as well.

I doubt it.

1. people are slowly losing interest in this site.

I'm not. And neither are other people. Having 200 people on at 11:21 AM on a THURSDAY is pretty incredible. I don't care what your site is, if you have that kinda numbers when it's the middle of a weekday, you're doing something right. Also, more and more people will come in here and be as interested as you were the day you signed up. Oh wait, you signed up today. Well, you know what I mean... It's like playing a new video game for the first time. Everything is so exciting and new you just explode with excitement.

2. horrible moderation.

Says you. I think the mods do a pretty swell job.

3. the site is controlled by a bunch of 10yr old kids.

Last I checked, Tom is 30, and so is most of the staff. Not 10.

4. moderators act like they are gods.

Yeah, but it's all good... Just sit down, eat your soup, don't act like a jackass, and you'll be fine.

5.flash videos are becoming less interesting.

Watch different flash. I always love being the first person to watch an UJ movie. Even if it's total crap, I love watching it. Because it's funny it's so bad, or it's just plain awesome, or it's right in the middle and still makes me interested somewhat.

6. audio is now a bunch of random people high on drugs.

Listen to different songs, or a different genre. I doubt you really visit the audio portal regularly.

7. the newgrounds staff can't control there own site.

First off, it's their. Not there. Secondly, yes they can. I haven't gotten a internal server error (is that what it was called?) for a LONG time now... Everything is running normal as far as I can tell.

~first and last words of the appledragon~

This isn't a movie. It's a website on the internet. Stop acting like your this big hero exposing the truth about a government. You pointed out a few flaws about Newgrounds, which aren't that big of a deal. A word of advice dude; just chill. It's only a website.

Hi, I'm PinballWizard976, and I'm a Newgroundaholic. I joined up here about a year ago for the sole purpose of reviewing a flash. It seemed like a cooler site with the flashy design since it was just after the redesign. Over time, I kept coming back for more and more to see what new flashes were out. I kept clicking that bookmark over and over again. Then, I discovered the forums in late October. That just sent me over the top. I went crazy posting more and more. I want to stop. But then again, I don't. I love and hate Newgrounds at the same time. Somebody help me please. *sobs*

Okay, I dramatized it a little bit... ;)

If you watched the video that was just made last night. You were see that those 2 kids are only an example. I do think it is in the makeup of the genes too but if people are dying from something like this is should not even be on the shelf. I hope your opinion changes back and I honestly hope that company gets law suits up the ass.

People die all the time from drugs. Aspirin alone kills around a million per decade, when they are taking the normal amount that their doctor prescribes them. Don't be so naive. And I can tell you didn't read my entire thread, so I'm not watching your entire video. I did watch most of it, but it just kept going on with mothers talking about how their kids want to kill themselves. I got the basic gist of it.

There is no age limit to smoking cigarettes, you just can't sell them to minors. Least that's what I've heard.

The law is that you can't sell to anyone under 18, you can't smoke them if you're under 18, but you can possess them and be under 18. Legally, how would you get them then? I don't get that last part of it. That's the US though.

Huh, haven't visited that page in while. Just some random names that spammed me way back when. I just un-blocked everyone on there. I crack up when someone spams me with the typical "FUCK U FAGGOT I FAUKED UR M0M" message now.

I'd have to disagree. There are different colors of human beings (an African is dark-colored, whereas a Canadian is lighter-colored), so what would you classify them as? Different races of humans exist. It's just a way of classification. Racism just means prejudice against someone because of their race. So, racism would mean racist, but that's just like saying that terrorism represents terrorists.

Anyone going to see this? I think it's a pretty good plot, and I'll probably go to see it. If you're too lazy to watch the trailer or don't understand it, click "see more" then "synopsis".

That's just plain stupid. Leaving your cell-phone / mp3 player on a table in the open is like writing a note to it saying "steal me!" I just keep mine in my pocket.

This may be a little, strange, but I'd love to see some sort of new rank for submitting different things to collections. Like, say you recommend a game/movie to some sort of collection/series and it gets accepted, you get a point to your _______ rank (sorry, but I don't know what we would call it). But then if it gets rejected, you'll lose a point. Sort of like the whistle status. It'll make the site more organized, and it'll give something for people to work on besides B/Ping and flagging reviews. Just a thought.

I mostly text when I'm at home or out just because it's faster, but I don't text at school. It's pretty pointless.

Eh, you've never experienced the wrath of BBR's hefty bans, so that's sort of a bold statement. It was basically whatever a normal mod would give you times around 3 or 4. So, what would be a week-long ban could end up lasting a month.

Like, seriously...

Answer these question to the best of your ability:
- Do you think racism in America is predominantly black vs white?

Yes

- Do you think black vs white racism is the most talked about form of racism?

Yes

- Do you think other racisms (for example white vs Latino, et cetera) are worse off than white vs black racism because they're less talked about?

No

Thanks for your time if you do fill out the survey.

Sure thing.

Finally! Level 18! I was stuck at 17 forever...

I totally agree. Most fans of that song are 11 year olds playing guitar hero

My favorite songs by DP would have to be My Woman From Tokyo, Space Truckin, Speed King, Hush, etc. etc.

I'm working at the haunted house I work always work at. And Friday is opening day. Woohoo, I'm pumped to be able to scream at people again and make them run away crying.

No payment, but the look on people's faces are priceless.
