2. Don't get Hurt, Make successful video === Rich, so buy yourself an officer rank! Fuck college!
3.Don't get hurt, video bombs ===== Try again
4. Get hurt, video bombs ==== At least you're not in the army.

Nice, but I only have 10 hours and no camera. Might be enough to staple my scrotum, but not quite enough for it to become a hit sensation on YouTube.
However, your sugestion has inspired me so instead I'll refer all of you people to this and I shall now expect your insight on such an important topic.

It's not a personal touch, it's an idiotic misprint.
If my tattoo said "the devil dances in the pale moonlight" instead of "dance with the devil in the pale moonlight," could I still say it's a Batman reference?
It changes the meaning, and is just another example of how people who think they know philosophy because they've read 1984 are almost always idiots.

Who said it couldn't be both? An idiot's personal touch is probably going to be idiotic, no?

No, because you changed the meaning. Does the misprint change the meaning of the quote for 1984 boy? Clue me in if it does.

They do not mean the same thing. They could be interpreted as having the same eventuality of logic, but they do not mean the same thing.
"Slavery is freedom" indicates that by being a slave, you are free.

I think on the action figure and in the comic she's bare-assed, with leaves in similar dispersion around her torso and legs. Definitely won't be doing that. I'll probably make a pair of ivy bikini bottoms. Little more coverage in the back than a bathing suit, but less than regular undies. And I'm sure there will be lots of double-sided tape in use to keep everything where it belongs.
I'm also probably going to buy a wig. My hair won't be quite long enough, though I'll most likely dye it red again so I can do Oracle wig-free. I'm thinking about getting a wavy long red wig and weaving the ivy in, and just leaving it that way, so the ivy won't be an additional preparation thing when it's time to get dressed.

I like euphemisms. Sometimes.
Did Steve say a memorable phrase while rescuing you?
"Fear not, my beloved lady, for I am here to protect you from this despicable pervert"
Like, myself =)Let's not be skeevy, here, dude.
I have a tab open with dictionary.com when I'm talking to you.
Main Entry: skeevy
Part of Speech: adj
Definition: disgusting or distasteful; nasty, sleazy
=\
I'm sorry if my joke was distasteful.
I think the last time I was called dude it was staff.
"Dude are you hitting on me?" when I translated a tango, and the translation could be interpreted both ways, because it talked how the bandoneon moaned.

Yes, I get the picture.
And I'm sure there will be lots of double-sided tape in use to keep everything where it belongs.
I don't get the picture there.

Have you ever worn a wig? How does it feel?I might need one if my hair keeps losing the battle.

That's not the army, that's the boy scouts.
It's about running, doing lots of exercise, being poorly fed, being insulted, and pain.

It builds character.
I'm not for war-- but not everything is terrible about the armed forces.
The only bad thing about it is that... it's preparation for war, instead of building up the world community. That's only the resulting part.
Salvation Army would be cool...

Oh shit that's awesome, looks way better than that piece of human waste that was "Bubba Ho-Tep". Vomit please.
And I love Ted Raimi. I loved Xena.
No, wait I STILL LOVE XENA. Ted Raimi was all over the place for no reason other than he was Sam Raimi's brother or cousin or whatever but he was awesome anyways.
And seriously don't ask people on the internet about anything serious unless it's got to do with a computer.

To be fair though...
When is Chile going to prepare for war?
And if so, what's the spread for it to be long.

Easy: post a blog full of hateful comments about Michelle Bachelet, and full of praise for Pinochet, before sending a link to the nearestrecruitment office and local newspaper. If that doesn't get you discharged, you'll have to make a pass at your commanding officer whilst feigning homosexual, incestuous, bestial desires.
Which, conversly, seems to be the attitudes that get you into the British military...

1. I can't think that going on the internet and proclaiming your intent to weasle out of something is a good way to go. However your status as a student might help.
2. Poison Ivy. Giggidy giggidy. Now I know you're a reasonably normal person but there have to be people in that crowd just using comic books as an excuse to dress like that. As I recall you also repelled advances from Data, which many of us doubted our own abilities to do.
3. I called you dude 2 days ago in my story (Which everyone, including the master of discuise, who I made a sniper because they needed a sniper, is in)

Just about any other depiction of poison ivy I've seen had a green coloring to the skin, the body suit for that would allow you a bit more coverage, about the same as a catwoman deal. Plus when I look at this one I can't stop thinking of lettuce head from kids in the hall.

Walk in And in a loud voice say " You can get anything you want at Alice's Resturant" & walk out.
Even better get a friend (same sex works best) hold hands & both of you go in & give it a go.
If your lucky they'll take you for faggots (sorry Fli no offense meant, but were trying to save this guy from purgatory) & they won't want either of you.

The cheap ones are very itchy. I think it's worse wearing one with hair under it, because if you're bald underneath you can wear padding. When my grandmother had chemotherapy, she had a really nice human-hair wig, but even the nice ones are still a little uncomfortable. And they shift around in ways your natural hair wouldn't.

Bodysuits are expensive and I'd really like to do this one. I saw someone do it with a flesh-tone bodysuit, but it was meh. I actually have everything I'd need for the "classic" Poison Ivy (kind of like this one), green tights, green boots, strapless green leotard. But I want to try this one out and see if I can make it work.
And as for the lettuce head, I wasn't going to put the leaf "cap" on. She only has that in a few issues. For the most part it's a few strands of ivy woven into her hair.

You kiddin'? They'd make me an officer.
So, anyway. Turns out I'm too late for doing any of the paperwork that could un-draft me, but I can still wave my papers at the barracks as soon as the oficial call is made. And apparently all I needed was my student certificate in the first place.
So it's all good, but that'll be a day wasted out of just bein' dumb. Specially when I pretty much met all of the requirements to be excused from the draft in the first place: College student, near-sightedness, and both tortured and disappeared relatives from back in the days. Hell, if I had managed to father a kid and to get my parents to divorce by now, I'd have the discharge power of an entire platoon.
