In my defense, I've gotten better. Also, the secret's been out of the bag for a week or so. Casinodoug has a server, and I joined it.

Goal: To build something aesthetically pleasing, fitting with the mideval theme.
Idea: Create a gladiatorial arena of Zombies vs Testificates/Players.

I think I'll just pretend I never found it, and move on with my project.

Well, I'm guessing that they were early to mid twenties at the time, and they're less than 20 years old. You're about 10 or so years off, Havok. Mom and Dad are pretty old.

Yeah, I ain't touching those things. They're really damn old. And I don't think he even remembers that they're there. They're covered in dust and dirt.

I was looking for a good place to set up my little woodshop, and I checked in the shed, and I found a few stacks of Playboy Magazines. What, if anything, should I do with them? And have any of you found the porn stash of a parent before?

Someone's already made that point!
*chirping crickets*
What, are my jokes that dull?
I'm just axing!
I thought they were the cutting edge!
Broken axes are comedy gold. Or pyrite.

What's wrong with getting the other half for a good price and giving to charity at the same time?

And we're not much different, except that we also take the skin to make leather, the bones for all sorts of shit including weapons to kill more animals with, the tendons and ligaments to bind things together with, the list goes on and on. A full grown deer can make you a nice jacket, a decent knife,...

I just read through Vampire: The Masquerade again, and I've had a few ideas. None of them are any good, however, and I just felt like mentioning Vampire: The Masquerade, in case it would give you ideas as well.

That handle was precariously thin. Maybe go for a thicker handle. Also, why the fuck would you use a double edged axe? It's impractical, and if it bounces back, it's gonna be quite painful.

Does the fact that I played Traveller matter in this discussion?

It does. Until the potion wears off, and he goes back to being bbq'd

I wonder, would a potion of fire resistance protect you from the sun at all?

Sounds good. Maybe add in a hat for daywalking purposes...

If it can be solved by a computer, than it sure as hell can be done mentally. I'm proof.

I can do a geometry problem entirely in my head. Something like,"If x is at (4,-9), and y is at (-9,4), find the midpoint."

I cannot be the first one to think of restricting the suggestion subforum so that you have to have been here for at least a month before being allowed to post in it. It would bring forth a new era of silence, lasting for about a month. But what a month! And, we wouldn't have to deal very much with t...

Math teachers: Stop making us show our work. Try encouraging people to do the math in their head, it's good for them. And for the love of god, stop giving homework just to give us homework. In fact, maybe stop giving us homework at all, if we need to practice, we'll fucking practice.

Thanks for all of the comfort. Thanks for taking a few minutes or so out of your day to help a 14-year old on the internet maintain his sanity. Also, today, I learned that I have to show my work on tests as well. And you know what the reaction to that was? "Right, well, fuck this, I'm outta her...

Also, as a sidenote, all of the classes are both patronizingly easy and bureacratically opaque at the same time. They add difficulty through the meta-lessons, which is not what a school should ever do. If school's gonna be hard, it damn well better be because of what they're trying to teach us, not ...

I'm not the one being down on myself. That would be everyone around me. And while I am a bright kid, as you said, I am also infected with a terminal case of laziness. And I don't do well under stress. And my life is nothing if not stressful. So, yeah. That's pretty much it

It's better than the writing I did when I was 15. Not a high bar to set, I admit, due to the fact that I'm not 15 yet.

That was fucking brilliant.
