Ever had one of those moments when you realize you're an idiot? I've just suffered one. Previously, I'd asked for an opinion of me based on my forum postings. I hadn't too many posts to judge by. I was under the impression that my account had been deleted and had started a new one under the name "Brosque". I just rediscovered my old account. I'd forgotten that I used a different username.
So, I'm just going to sit here and feel stupid for a few minutes. Thought you might want to know so the pointing and laughing could start.
Agnotism is cool because it's the only one that says, "I don't know." That's the greatest thing to say because you're still right.
"Is there a God?" "I dunno."
"What about heaven?" "Dunno. Never died. Let you know later."
"What happens when we die?" "How 'bout I send you that way and you come back and tell me. I don't know."
Better off with Buddhism. No god in it. Just a strict code of behavior.
Or go Deist. Deist= God existed. God created Earth and man. God took a walk and left us to our own devices.
Bust out your dictionary, man. Atheism = Absence of belief in a deity. Not belief in nothing.
Was dating a girl who called me "Brosque" at the time I signed up. Seemed a perfectly good name/rock to hide behind. So it stuck and she went bye-bye.
I've got both and I prefer the mp3 player. The mini disc player takes a while to write music to disc. The USB connection for mp3 players is much faster. Battery life is similar so negligible.
Just use the old standard response to 3 year olds. "Your parents don't love you. They hate you. They wish you'd never been born. You're simply the result of a defective prophelactic and a botched abortion. Odds are you'll grow up to be the sort of person who spits of windshields before begging for change in exchange for wiping the saliva off with an oily rag. Do yourself a favor and contemplate suicide now." At least I find it always worked with my younger siblings.
Easiest stuff to pick up while new, would be from bands like:
Greenday
White Stripes
System of a Down
Blink 182
Nirvana
Puddle of Mudd
...etc
Two days? Congrats on starting. I've been playing for over 8 years, though I stick more to acoustic guitar.

Why the fuck you fucking with me
Why the fuck you playing with me
Why the fuck you wasting my time
Why the fuck you hiding my sunshine
With friends like you who really needs it
Your smiling face is misplaced, you're so deceiving
I can feel my spirit leaving
I cut my wrists you see them bleeding
Just like a parasite you creeping
See me psychotic, see me jumping of the deep end

I'm from the St. Louis area.. a third of the way into the country. The midwest. I dunno why it doesn't count as the mideast. No hostility here. We just gather on opposite sides of the Mississippi River and try to start rumbles with those damned Illinois people.
Not a clue on the name, but I saw the new Resident Evil movie... whoever played Jill. Very nice.
Look on the bright side, the world of made up statistics emotional people are 10x more likely to get hit by a crosstown bus.
1... 2... 3... 4... 5... GOT ONE! 1... 2... 3...
How about a train slamming past on tracks, dragging a username? Seems like it could work.
Could I sell it for a better soul?
I'm an American, whether I like it or not. Personally I don't believe in the "Sins of the father being passed on..." bullshit. I was born in 1984, this will be the first election I'm old enough to vote in. So don't start giving me shit until after I've made my choice this November.
As for the history textbooks, you're absolutely right. I'm a student of history, our textbooks omit so much relevant history. I've been after the board of education at my college to open new courses in history. Personally, I'd like to see a course dedicated to the involvement of the American-Indian in our history. They played a much greater part in each of our wars than is recorded in any average textbook. I'd also like a course in the history of U.S. international policies and actions. Our interferrence with other governments, and shady deals. But I know I won't get either of these courses.
I imagine other nations are the same. No upstanding citizen on the educational board of any nation is going to accept a textbook which points out their nation's flaws. They'll instead go with another textbook which feeds us the happy horseshit "we're a great nation".
I may not love my country's past. Hell, I'm not too fond of its present. But the future, I've still got a chance to affect.
Maybe I'll run for president in 2020. I'm a broke college student from Missouri. I have no political affiliation. I'm the most stubborn asshole you'll ever meet. I profanitize more than is socially acceptable. I tell the truth. I've never broken a promise. i'm not fond of wealthy people. With qualifications like that, I'm lucky if they'll let me walk into a local city hall... let alone the White House. No one wants an honest politician. It'd destroy the whole system.
Our government is set up so that it's the Congress who has to listen to every poll and bend to the will of the people. The President is supposed to be an independant decision maker. The scapegoat of the world who's only real job is to enforce the laws set forth by Congress. In reality, it's the Congress who is oblivious to the polls and the will of their constituents. It's the President who bends to each opinion poll in a desperate scramble to hold his post. How nice would it be if a politician just told you how he really felt? What his personal stands were, rather than his party's stands? How about if he had no party? Wouldn't that be nice... to know he makes his own decisions? Won't happen. At least not anytime soon.
That's a lot to read. I didn't intend to type for so long. Sorry, but thanks to anyone who muddled through it.
Dunno why Goths are feared. Knew a lot of them in High School... some of the nicest people I knew. Grizzly bear looking mo' fo's with interiors like teddy bears. It's a front for non-conformity. I dig non-conformity, but if you all avoid conformity the same way... it becomes conformity again. Whaaa.
Works best if you beat up a freshmen... they're not likely to suspect you if you fall in with the rest of the upper classmen. Or do what I did and beat up the first Senior to try you.
Hellboy guy's name is Ron Pearlman. Just thought you'd like to know.
I could use the time travel, but I'd prefer spacial travel. Teleportation. Imagine being able to pop into a user's room just long enough to smack them upside the back of the head, and POOF reappear back at your own computer.
Wouldn't mind visiting a few beaches either...
The gun pen kind of freaks me out... but one question: Can it still write?
Disregard me. This is what I get for posting before scrolling further down the topic list. Already been done. My apologies.
What's up with people wanting to be mods? It sounds like work to me. Work takes effort, and I'm not cool with that. I'd rather just sit on my ass and enjoy the BBS.
Got rid of mine two years ago. Hated the mo' fo's. Glad to have straight teeth, but it was hell waiting. Sorry man.
You have missed the most important of all questions:
Can God make toast fall jelly side up?
Wait... Sex on the basis of the quality of my posts? Are you telling me there's finally a reason to have paid attention during English class? That my spelling and grammar would someday lead to fornication?
You know, I would have paid a lot more attention if you'd only told me that sooner.
Attention all users:
Due to the cost increase of crude oil, Management has been forced to close some routes. All transportation to the following destinations have been temporarily cancelled:
HEAVEN
HELL
AMSTERDAM
We hope to soon be able to offer passenger service to these destinations again. For further information call 1-800-FUK-OPEC.
My guess is they think of me as someone who pops up sporadically for a couple of days and then disappears for a while. Not a forum regular. Took me three years to make three hundred posts. Still talking a post once a week at average. So my guess is "non-entitiy".
How am I supposed to know what someone else is thinking?
(arches eyebrow)
I'll just stand here, and you know, try to look cool.
And ignore that a stranger has just proclaimed their love for me.
I work nights... so I still have to work regardless of the holiday. Maybe I'll catch some more sleep and hang out with my girl.
