Doesn't every race do that?

It's just the same as a bully whaling on a nerd, because he tries and is largely successful.

The only reason I could think of what he's proposing as a "dark secret" is that black kids happen to be more impoverished in the US (for various debatable reasons I won't go into) and so there are more black bullies to whale on the others.

Some of these seem a bit loaded just to have an argument. Others could have been easily answered by Google if they really wanted the answer.

But jesus, the first one seems to think changing the entire system is easy as a flick of a switch.

It doesn't scare me a bit.

It's inevitable except in rare cases where your life get's put into mythology like the ancient Egyptians, Greeks or Romans (and even then, we can't exactly prove it was all true). Billions of people have been on this Earth and we do not care. Those old skulls of homo sapiens, or before that? We don't really care about that particular individual other than the evolutionary bits and what general life was like rather than the individual life.

Seeing as 99.9% of the worlds population doesn't know who you are alive now, it doesn't matter if they knew you when you died afterwards. Personally I think that's worse going out an unknown but then becoming famous after your death, like Van Gogh.

That doesn't mean I wouldn't want to die famous, or become famous later, but it isn't the be-all and end-all of things.

The Flood / Re: What would your post count be if....
« on: October 25, 2014, 07:47:50 AM »
I think even combined I wouldn't have enough posts to get a custom title here.

Let's see, judging by my average post count here and multiplying by 2 years(as the first year I basically just watched the chaos rather than joining in)

(2x365)x7=5110. Huh. Guess I was wrong, though I'm not sure I posted as often as I do here so this may be an over-estimation. Just add 637 and you've got my total (<5747)
I still saw you around on Bnet quite a bit. Or maybe you're just one of those members that stuck with me.

I stuck to threads interesting to me, so some days there was nothing to post in and I had a gander around some other forums.

Who knows, same interests perhaps? I'm not particularly known for being memorable.

Organising a houseparty with a few houses on my street.

Thinking of hollowing out a pumpkin and using it as a themed-fishbowl.

I'm sure that paying it won't be any trouble for the UK, but it will certainly leave a dent in the budget.

Aren't we still in some sort of deficit? That's sure to cut the UK some slack.

Not to mention the bailing out of lesser-EU states (not to say they're any worse of course, but Greece and the PI_S don't have a strong economy). It seems that EU is just getting grumpy because we voted "No" for something a year or so ago and got demoted to some sort of lower status in one of the many unknown but important EU councils we have.

(My memory has failed me terribly as to what it was all about; I blame how dull the EU political stuff is sometimes)

News just in, David Cameron says he ain't paying the tab.

No, seriously.

This should be interesting.

They can't really threaten Britain with much.

"Oh, you're going to kick us out of the EU? We were totally gonna do that anyway"

Yeah, it really does seem like quite the 'No frack you' situation. If they go for sanctions then the UK will have even more reason to leave. I've been quite the pro-EU chap for a long time, but they really have some incompetent feckers running the show.

Even though this surcharge isn't anything out of the ordinary, and the UK has previously had rebates through the same system, the sheer tactlessness of the timing staggering.
It would make more sense if they allowed them to pay in installments at the very least, but no, gotta scrounge it all up by December.

Hell, I'm not certain my Uni funding will entirely last me to then. How the hell is D.C. gonna pull 1.7bn out of his arse in that time?

Might do frozen limes soon. Could be good with Tequila, just have to suck it afterwards.

« on: October 24, 2014, 07:01:02 PM »
Rule 1: Women Love Bastards:


Rule 2: A majority of texts must have some form of smiley or display of emotion in them. Otherwise you're just a cold emotionless person, obviously.

Does lolSapphire still exist? I remember I was on a list of members that weren't able to get in. I called Jay the muslim equivalent of Sarah Jessica Parker.

Yeah it's still there. Took a visit today to post and bide my time to see the injustice. It seems relatively dead though, so I'm guessing it's largely full of 'Mericuhs.

« on: October 24, 2014, 07:24:27 AM »
Alarm goes off 7:20.
Get up, go downstairs and have cereal/coffee.
Go back upstairs after finishing (~7:40-8:00), grab washing bag and towels and take a shower.
Finish shower, dry off and brush teeth/shave if necessary and go back to room to get dressed (~8:10-8:20)
Pack bag and fill my pockets with necessities (pack of tissues,Wallet,Phone and Keys)
Jump on laptop to check for important e-mails and drop by here until ~8:50
Leave for Geology lectures.

This all changes on weekends where usually I'm up around 12-ish not knowing what happened last night and who I am, and all the above steps get mixed up.

We bounce off each other with the crazy shit we say, and share the same humour. We were there for each other when both of us ended relationships (separate times).

He'll be coming up to visit in a few weeks after I went back home to see him, get pissed and eat kebabs.

Gaming / Re: What do you name your classes?
« on: October 24, 2014, 06:43:50 AM »
I like doing little wordplays on them.

i.e. FAL/Snipers are "Long-Range Loner", Shotguns and SMG's are "Close Quarter Chaos", and my personal favourite on W@W is a Browning MG with an M1 Carbine and a Flamethrower, dubbed the "One-Man Overkill"

There's usually a few variations on it depending if the class is AA or AT, or orientated around Assault Rifles/ Explosives, but you get the idea.

Since going to Uni, apparently I've gotten skinny.

The thing is, I was skinny when I left, so I'm more worried I'm becoming unintentionally (anemic?).

I'm eating chocolate digestives to compensate.

« on: October 23, 2014, 05:32:43 PM »
I never got the American obsession over Credit Cards. You spend money you don't have, only to pay it back with your actual money later, and if you go over you get charged loads. It seems only existent for the bank to catch you out and squeeze money out of you.

Spoiler
(not taking a stab at you Deci, relax. Just a general rant)

I understand.

Well, I need to start building credit anyway. I have no credit history whatsoever. I need the credit (good credit mind you) so I can be able to buy a car or a house later on.

Same goes with renting an apartment, they're going to check my credit for it, and if I don't have credit, I get nothing.

Shit. I hope they don't pull that shit on this side of the pond...

Reciprocating smileys is where it's at, just do it right.

e.g. Don't reply to "Hey! How are you? :)" with "My grandad died yesterday! :)" That's just bad on many, many levels.

Yeah, I like finding out which types of simleys people use when I first meet them, the smiley tongue out one seems to be the most popular.

:P

I'm more of a  ^^ or  :^) myself

A recent thing where I live was :L, essentially replacing lol. Suitable for most situations.
