We were just a normal middle class family.

My parents were the ones that kicked ass when they were younger, though. They both came from very poor families; from getting evicted from houses, living in cars. My mom's father ended up being shot by his girlfriend [a different woman than my mom's mom, of course] and was a drunk.

That was a really shitty life, and the fact that they've done so well for themselves over the last 30-40 years speaks volumes.
Wait...your grandfather was shot?
yep. Shot and killed three days before I was born.

Oh fuck no. I'll go on record and say I'd rather have Obama run for a 3rd time then let that bitch ever set foot on the campaign
If only there was a way for you to voice your opinion about who you wanted to be the leader of our country...

Uncomfortable fact: the investigation concluded that some of the crew were still alive after the explosion (3 of the 4 personal emergency oxygen supply devices were manually activated), which means they met their fate only when the crew cabin hit the water after freefalling back to earth for 2 minutes and 45 seconds.

Fuck.
They were most likely knocked unconscious moments after they deployed their masks as they weren't pressurized at all.
This is true. I guess that's...less terrible?

I wish I had the balls to do these things in the name of science and exploration. I can't think of anything I would give my life for. I have the utmost respect for these people.

middle class, our household was making about 50-60k, and I was lucky enough to get a free ride through university for my acedemic achievements, with the highest marks in physics and auto throughout HS.

I'd consider 50-60k above middle class.

My household makes somewhere around 3k a year and we get by pretty well.
...your whole house brings home three thousand dollars? What in the hell? That's nothing.

No, around 3000 pounds. Which equates to around 4.5k dollars.
That's still pretty much nothing. People can't live on that kind of money. How do you buy food? Pay utilities? Internet alone is a good chunk of your whole year's income.

Serious / Re: Bar unvaccinated kids from public school?
« on: January 28, 2015, 06:20:05 PM »
It's a bit of a tricky one, considering how the usual reason for a child being vaccinated is a lack of education as to how vaccines work on the part of the parent. Kicking a child out of the one place where they have a chance to learn that vaccines don't infact cause autism/ebola/flatulence (Or all three) seems counter-intuitive.
Let's be real, though - little Johnny isn't going to tell mom and dad that he needs a vaccine. Even if he does, mom and dad will tell him it's against their beliefs.

« on: January 28, 2015, 05:21:19 PM »
Yeah, things are pretty good for me. I love my job, the people I work with, my friends and family.

Things are good. No complaints.

What exactly is your job?
Now that I've finished my Masters in Educational Technology, I work with the county department of education on researching current and upcoming tech, software, etc, to use in the classroom, and I work with the teachers on how to effectively use it in their classroom and build it into lesson plan.

How's it pay?
Much better than actually teaching :)

Nah

Why is that?
No job so no money so can't do anything

Have you been trying?
I've been trying since last June mate

Damn, what have you been gunning for job wise?
I studied in Business and Accountancy, so there is literally hundreds of jobs to apply for, that's not the problem. I think it's because I don't have any work experience so they just pick the more experienced people immediately.
Accounting is always a good place to be. Have you looked into temp-to-hire/contracting gigs? They aren't all entry level bullshit. I have a lot of friends that work in PR/HR, accounting, etc, that got their jobs that way.

The first vote, introduced by the Rhode Island Democrat, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, said only: “To express the sense of the Senate that climate change is real and not a hoax.”

But Republicans have grown canny about being called out as climate deniers. For the Republican party leadership the current preferred phrase now is: “I am not a scientist” – which casts doubt but avoids outright denial. However, Obama made that line a butt of his jokes in the State of the Union address.

Inhofe, the veteran climate denier in the Senate and incoming chair of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, stunned a number of Democrats when he asked to co-sponsor the amendment.

For a moment it looked like the ultimate climate denier had had a change of heart – but no. Inhofe was ready to acknowledge climate change was occurring but he was adamant it had nothing to do with human activity such as the burning of fossil fuels.

“Climate is changing and climate has always changed and always will,” Inhofe told the Senate. “The hoax is that there are some people who are so arrogant to think they are so powerful they can change climate. Man can’t change climate.”

This is starting to get really painful to keep reading about.

Stop doing stupid things, people.

You're not alone. I feel the same. Bolding things doesn't have much effect for me, which is why I usually underline.

Bashing the very place they go to advertise
"They"?
Us.
I guess that means since a couple people have asked b.netters to join Sep7 that means I can't criticize the shitty people there.

Hm. Who knew.

Right

And yet you still flip your shit when I complain here
Because you just whine and post "NO FUN ALLOWED" pics. You offer no constructive criticism.

Same thing I do only the other way around
Yeah, no.

I complain
You complain

Whats's the difference?

Besides the fact that you turn into a total pussy when I do it
I'm not complaining about anything. I posted a dumb post from a b.net user and we all had a laugh at it.

When I have an issue with Sep7, I comment in the appropriate threads or PM a mod, like I'm supposed to.

You, on the other hand, just spam pictures about NO FUN ALLOWED and offer no constructive criticism whatsoever. Maybe you should stop being a pussy.

1) lol you took me seriously
2) And I suppose this thread is invaluable to the Bungie staff for improving their site




Way to prove my point
I'm convinced you've literally never had fun in your life.

Wot
I mean, all I ever see you post about it how terrible things are.
