1. I'm sorry, that's incorrect. Please have a seat.

The correct spelling is:
f-u-c-k-i-n-g i-r-r-i-t-a-t-i-n-g b-u-l-l-s-h-i-t

:P

[JohnKleeb]

3. thats trig you're talking about

(One of my friends had the hots for the teacher. :D)

[JohnKleeb]

33. hahhahaha

12th grade government was awesome for me in that way but not because of teacher. Oh the cute girl that you could never have because she had a boyfriend and was way out your league but nice to you nonetheless. Sigh.

[ZombieNixon]

36. Ah, don'cha hate that?!

x(

[JohnKleeb]

39. Sure I do

But hey at least I wasn't treated like I didn't exist like a cliche 1980's movie. Best of all though I was a history nerd I was loved by some.

[ZombieNixon]

40. Yeah, everyone loves sitting next to the smart guy!

:D

[JohnKleeb]

46. Yeah but the thing was

I am a total dumbass in other htings. Ah Asperger Syndrome what good have thou done me.

[Ava]

15. you don't like philosophy?

:shrug:

[ZombieNixon]

18. On the contrary, I love philosophy.

Ever since I came to the realization that classical philosophy is just bunch of dead white guys gassing on about their own opinions, I've been enjoying tearing it to shreds. :D

That being said, Pausanias was still a sick pervert. :grr:

[JohnKleeb]

19. Call a Greek a Turk sometime

;) The results are hilarious.

[Ava]

21. Is Plato a dead white guy gassing on about his own opinions?

:P

[ZombieNixon]

24. Yes. He just does it an circumnavigant style.

But he's still not really searching for the truth. Every philosopher's work is highly colored by his own worldview.

[Ava]

25. hmmm. i guess you are probably right,

but i still love philosophy, because makes you think hard.

[ZombieNixon]

27. It makes you think about what you think is wrong about it

and that makes you think about yourself. So, I like it.

Also, I'm a contrarian asshole, so I revel in destroying time honored argument. :D

[Ava]

2. LOL!

:rofl:

[DS1]

4. I love geometry, easist math I ever took

S-A-I-L-E-D through that course. Algebra, on the other hand, that's some boring shit right there

[Ava]

5. Algebra is fun

once you get through the "this makes no sense" stuff it's fun because it all fits together like puzzle. I'm taking Trig right now, and THAT i hate!


i know, i'm a nerd :cry:

[JohnKleeb]

7. Jeez trig at your age?

Then again I am as they say "LD".

[Ava]

9. i'm about 1/4 of the way through my trig book

and i hate it! my friends my age are just now starting algebra which i'm a bit shocked by.
my favorite subject is history. like i said I'm a nerd... you know, one of those who "likes" learning :rofl:

[JohnKleeb]

11. Now history is something I can actually brag about knowing

[Ava]

13. i love history

mainly 20th century history. My favorite to study is the industrialization age.

[JohnKleeb]

17. Oh man me too

You learn about the Homstead Strike yet? Fucking Henry CLAY (my bad) Prick and Andrew Carnegie. That certainly was an interesting time period since it's a period of transition and those are always interesting.

[Ava]

20. oh no! Henry Ford is an idol here in bama!

:rofl:

best book I've read about stikes was about the Wobblies. I'll try to find the book link online and post it.

[JohnKleeb]

22. I meant Henry Clay Frick

Different guy, but an asshole. My great grandfathers were in the Miners union so I think its obvious to say I am very pro union.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

34. Awww, c'mon...You know the middle ages/the Renaissance kick ass.

:P :P

:hi:

[Ava]

47. nah! i hate the crap!

it's a romance and poetry! blah!

i'm not your typical love-struck girl my age! :P ;)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

48. I don't do it for the love.

I do it for the blood and guts! MUAHAHAHAAHAHAAHA!

:D

(Not really. I'm a pacifist. :D)

[Ava]

49. i surprised you are not into the jazz age

now THAT was an awesome time! :P

[WritingIsMyReligion]

51. I love jazz.

I love F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Yeah, I'm into that bitchin' jazz.

:D :P :D

[Ava]

53. yeah, but i was mainly talking about all the women of that era

it was the roaring twenties and women were kicking ass and taking names! :P

[WritingIsMyReligion]

56. Among other things.

:silly:

[Ava]

58. oh yeah, among other things

who said flappers were 'loose' women :P ;)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

61. They knew what they were doing, that's for sure.

There's a reason jazz was looked down upon "way back when": legend has it beginning in the brothels.

;)

[Ava]

72. well hell, Billy Holiday started out as a prostitute.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

78. Yeah, they were an interesting group of people.

Bird snuffed it at 34, and spent time at Camarillo after running naked through a hotel. Bill Evans was wasted on cocaine most of his life. And so on, and so forth. :D

[JohnKleeb]

59. and drinking

:hide: 20's has my interest because we had some of hte worst presidents ever that decade. Including Calvin Coolidge who talked like he had a bug up his asshole.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

63. Fucktard still takes the cake.

Which he CAN'T have and eat, as well.

:hide:

[JohnKleeb]

67. Ah Mr. Pretzel

He's got the lowest job creation rate since Hoover. Can't believe the bastard is a two termer.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

68. 'Cause America's fucked up right now.

:crazy:

:argh:

[JohnKleeb]

75. People in some states were more concerend about gays marrying

than they were the economy. Playing to people's hatred a glorious way to get elected, NOT.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

80. 'Cause those gays are after you! Look out!

:crazy:

[JohnKleeb]

85. I don't have a gaydar

I think that's good I guess.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

87. Never understood "gaydar."

Who GIVES a fuck?

:grr:

:D

[JohnKleeb]

91. Dunno

I like being ignorant like that. Oh you're gay? I don't care.

[Ava]

66. the 20's has my interest because it was an era that completely changed

america, and not just for the good (the Wall Street crash)


oh and don't forget about the Anti-Flirt League :rofl:

[JohnKleeb]

70. I wrote an essay on how it was a period of conflict

on my history test. Was rather good I explained the reemergance of the klan, the division at the 1924 Democratic Convention, and the Scopes Trial.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

74. Scopes Trial was fascinating.

Liked that play, INHERIT THE WIND, very much as well. ;)

[JohnKleeb]

77. I saw that in 8th grade

It's amazing and relevant.
Right around the same time I started getting political. Was the same year of Bush Vs Gore.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

83. I love ITW.

Great play. ;)

[Ava]

76. i focused on the 20's in my 6th grade final paper

yeah, i was the only one my age that even knew about the 20's! :rofl:

[JohnKleeb]

82. When I was in 6th grade

I was being disappointed that I missed my friend's fake marriage to Pamela Anderson Lee. Yeah I was immature, wait was? AM.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

84. "The '20s? What're those??"

:rofl:

You a sophomore, Ava? ;)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

32. I'm doing trig now in my geometry class.

It's a bunch of fucking bullshit nobody gives a damn about.

:grr:

[Reverend_Smitty]

10. Geometry was the only math class I got an A in

all the rest of them I got B's and C's. Although I did get an A in elementary statistics my soph year in college, but that was a bullshit class. Now that I'm barely passing chemistry I really wish I paid more attention in algebra!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

31. Geometry sucks ass, and you know it.

Who gives a damn what the properties of a 30-60-90 or 45-45-90 triangle are, and how the fucking sides relate to one another? Sure as hell not me.

:grr::grr::argh:

[LaurenG]

60. No you've got that back wards

kleeb is right in this case, geometry is weird. Algebra makes sense and I used to be decent at it. Besides you seem like the kind of "brainiac" who could do anything well. :7

[WritingIsMyReligion]

65. Geometry makes my head spin.

All those pictures....

:scared:

:hi:

[LaurenG]

81. It's the angles that I just can't take

I need round things. lol

[WritingIsMyReligion]

86. Yup. Triangles are evil incarnate.

:grr:

[nemo137]

16. I'm getting a middling B in Stats for Social Sci

and let me tell you, it's the highest math grade I've gotten since middle school.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

28. I'm sorry, it's actually:

s-t-u-p-i-d-a-s-s-p-i-e-c-e-o-f-s-h-i-t-t-h-a-t-n-o-b-o-d-y-s-h-o-u-l-d-g-i-v-e-a-d-a-m-n-a-b-o-u-t

:grr:

[JohnKleeb]

Thats what I call a synonom

[WritingIsMyReligion]

35. Yeah, no shit.

Fucking nonsense.

:grr:

[JohnKleeb]

42. It really is

I mean today in Math we discussed the Koeningsburg Bridge problem. Goddamned Prussian bastards if you're so irriated that you may have to go around a bridge more than once then tough luck, it happens.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

43. LOL!

:rofl:

[ZombieNixon]

30. Think about that next time you walk into a building or under a bridge.

Geometry may be difficult and irritating, but it's undoubtedly necessary. :) :hi:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

37. Unfortunately.

x(

Fortunately, I have NO PLANS WHATSOEVER to go into ANY math OR science field. Give me history, please, or English/writing/literature, or Latin, or any other foreign language. Leave the numbers to the next guy.

:grr:

:hi:

[ZombieNixon]

38. So, if I told you you could learn to read and pronounce any language

but to do so, you had to learn to count in base 12, what would you say? :shrug: :P

(Because you can do that)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

41. I'd snap my head off at someone.

Bases are ANNOYING.

x( x( x(

[ZombieNixon]

44. You can snap your head OFF?

How do ya do that?! :wow: :P

[WritingIsMyReligion]

45. You are the definition of annoying.

Go ahead, do it....Spin that for me.

:P

[ZombieNixon]

50. Annoy...synonym: irk

Irk: from Middle English irken from Old Norse yrkja in turn derived from Proto-Germanic *urkja from Proto-Indo-European *urg-yos suffixed zero-grade of root *werg- meaning "work" or "action."

The definition of action, yep, that's me! :D

:P

[WritingIsMyReligion]

52. OMG....

Shut UP! :rofl::rofl:

:rofl::rofl:

You are too funny.

:silly:

:rofl:

[ZombieNixon]

54. Years of studying linguistics will do this to you.

:crazy:

I can now speak reconstructed Proto-Indo-European, a thoroughly useless but incredibly cool sounding skill. :silly:

[JohnKleeb]

55. How do you say You're a jerk, you know that

in Proto-Indo-European blah.

[ZombieNixon]

62. I doubt they had a word for jerk in that context back then.

So, I'll use "bastard" instead.

Possible translations include:
*tu yewesne si:
*tu es-si: n.yewes
*tu n.yewes-sunu: es-si:

Or other permuations of above words.

(In case you're wondering, I am *really* fuckin' bored right now. :freak:)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

69. Where are you?

Dorm room?

:D :P :D

[ZombieNixon]

73. Yeah.

Done with class...feel like being lazy. :D

[WritingIsMyReligion]

88. Well, poop on you.

I still have homework to do...including geometry. :puke:

[ZombieNixon]

95. What kind of geometry?

:shrug:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

97. Basic intro--Euclidean.

We've done, goodness, all sorts of shit. Triangles--I had to know ALL the congruence properties. :argh: Circles, damn them. Considerable work with angles. And, oh, proofs, truly evil incarnate. :grr::grr: Now we're into basic trig--tangent, sine, cosine. Like I GIVE a SHIT about that FUCKING nonsense! :grr:

[ZombieNixon]

100. Proofs suck.

But sines and cosines are my bestest friends these days. Even when I'm writing fiction because I keep trying to make sure that my SF has a sense of plausibility, and that means having a sense of scale. Most SF writers seem to think that traversing 45,000 light years or so would be simply a matter of hours. Bastids. :grr:

:D

[WritingIsMyReligion]

102. SF drives me nuts, too.

Give me historical fiction or fantasy any day. I much prefer the past to the future. NOT that sci-fi can't be very good, of course. But it usually weirds me out. :scared:

[ZombieNixon]

104. Good SF

(I'm using that in the "speculative fiction" sense, to include both fantasy and science fiction) is hard, especially as it gets detailed because you want to make sure your conculture and society are outlandish but not so much so to make it unbelievable, but not so detailed as to have to resort to Mr. Exposition charaters or "as you know" speeches ("As you know, we've been traveling faster than light for 300 years now." "Of course I know that ya bastid! Why are you telling me?").

:crazy:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

105. 'S hard stuff to write.

Good luck!

;)

[JohnKleeb]

89. I am done with classes next friday

Then its out to the ballpark whenever I can and hopefully some parties too since people will be coming home.

[ZombieNixon]

93. Ya bastid.

I don't get out until the beginning of June...Damn you, quarter system! x(

[JohnKleeb]

96. Yeah but you have the liquor benefit

The closest I've done to being drunk in the last month was putting too much sugar and creme in my coffee when I was ironically enough at an AA house. I saw an ad for Watermelon bacardi in a magazine. I want that :(.

[ZombieNixon]

103. I want whiskey.

:(

[JohnKleeb]

106. Whiskey would be nice but I dont wanna head to class

hungover.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

57. That's awesome.

PIE fascinates me.

;)

[ZombieNixon]

64. Mmm...pie.

:9

:P

[WritingIsMyReligion]

71. You're evil.

:P

[ZombieNixon]

79. Evil...from Old English "yfel"

from Germanic ubilaz from PIE *up-el-os double suffixed zero grade of root *wep meaning—OK, I'm going to shut up now. :yoiks:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

90. I don't mind.

Some of those wandering math nerds might, though.

:D

[ZombieNixon]

92. It sucks. I'm like a nerd in everything.

x( Math, science ('cept biology), history, language, computers. I never got a moments peace in school because people were always asking me for homework help. x(

[WritingIsMyReligion]

94. I'm history, English, Latin, algebra.

No sciences....I don't let people know what I can (and CAN'T :D) do there.

[ZombieNixon]

98. Antiquis temporibus, nati tibi simile in rupibus ventosissimis

exponebantur ad necem.

:hide:

:P

[WritingIsMyReligion]

99. I only understood a bit of that....

I'm only Latin I, damn it!

:P

[ZombieNixon]

101. Essentially, it means:

"In the good old days, children like you were left to perish on windswept crags."

I love insulting people in obscure languages, because they just get the :wtf: look and leave me alone. :D
