  2. *pulls out her spare pair of glasses, then beats GG with a wet noodle until he returns her first pair* :P

  3. They're classified as learning disabilites because they interfer with a child's ability to concentrate and learn. Of course, it's way over diagnosed and many doctors just say 'diagnose' it because the parents want some medicine to make their kid behave instead of working with them and helping them. There is a much better solution, it's called 'Sit down and shut up!' as demonstratred by South Park one time.

    Warning for Women!!

    WARNING FOR WOMEN: You've heard about people who have been abducted and had their kidneys removed by black-market organ thieves. Well, this kind of cruel theft is happening with other body parts as well! My thighs were stolen from me during the night a few years ago. I went to sleep and woke up with someone else's thighs. It was just that quick. The replacements had the texture of cooked oatmeal. Whose thighs were these and what happened to mine? I spent the entire summer looking for my thighs. Finally, hurt and angry, I resigned myself to living out my life in jeans. Then the thieves struck again. My ass was next. I knew it was the same gang, because they took pains to match my new rear end to the thighs they had stuck me with earlier. But my new ass was attached at least three inches lower than my original. I realized I'd have to give up my jeans in favor of long skirts. Two years ago I realized my arms had been switched. One morning I was fixing my hair and was horrified to see the flesh of my upper arms swing to and fro with the motion of the hairbrush. This was really getting scary - my body was being replaced one section at a time. What could they do to me next? When my poor neck suddenly disappeared and was replaced with a turkey neck, I decided to tell my story. Women of the world wake up and smell the coffee! Those 'plastic' surgeons are using REAL replacement body parts stolen from you and me! The next time someone you know has some thing 'lifted', look again...Was it lifted from you? THIS IS NOT A HOAX. This is happening to women everywhere every night. WARN YOUR FRIENDS! P.S. Last year I thought someone had stolen my breasts. I was lying in bed and they were gone! But when I jumped out of bed, I was relieved to see that they had just been hiding in my armpits as I slept. Now I keep them safely hidden in my waist band.
  5. happy birthday! *throws confetti*

  7. My grandpa did. And probally will again for local stations down where he's at when my uncle gets a chance to install it.
  8. Well, this isn't Canada. Granted a lot of those are on the extreme end, but yeah. Spanking your kid, even the kind of spankings I recieved as a kid, can get you arrested for child abuse. So, another generation grows up with no discipline and very little sense of self control.
  9. yeah, i saw it several years ago....it was a little slow for my tastes, but had a good story with it....

  11. get goats....but not sheep....goats will eat it down, sheep can destroy the roots.... or just pile it over with rocks....someone did that in my neighborhood.......
  12. Are you new to the internets? Have you always wanted to try the chat abbreviations that you see floating around? Then this informative video is for you! CJWksheoo3k
  13. Pay off my college debts. Then buy one of those hydrogen cars if I can. I'd still have to have a regular car to go home for the holidays, but that's once a year. The rest of the time I use it, if I could get it filled up anywhere in Dallas, it'd be worth it!

    Which is why I locked it.
  15. and buy rechargable batteries....you'll save a LOT of money in the long run b/c even just taking pictures can use it up pretty quick....espically if you use the flash a lot.... Also, the closer you zoom, the shakier the video can be. If you can't get close to your subject, find something steady to rest it on while you film.
  16. Well, it depends on what you want to do more of. If you want to shoot lots of video, getting a camcorder is a good deal. If you just want to take the occasional short video, but lots of pictures, get a higher end digital camera that has a memory card you can swap out. (i think they all do, but make sure anyways) That way, you can take lots of pictures, but if you want to get a movie shot, you still can.
  17. i just have one question...what the heck were they trying to make by mixing vegitable oil and pee together?.....o.@...
  18. ok, there must be something wrong with me because i don't see a need to go beyond DVD. I've seen movies and games in HD and Blueray, on devices made for it, and I can't really see a difference unless I get really close to the screen. And even then, it's not a big enough difference that I care. I'm perfectly happy with regular DVDs and I'm annoyed that if I want to buy new movies after a while, I'll have to buy a new, more expensive player and probally pay more for the discs. It kinda ticks me off, to be honest.
  19. i never bought an HD DVD either....i've only owned a DVD player for about two years now....not counting the one on my computer that is....
  20. wait, so now i have to buy yet another player? *grrrrrrr* I don't care about HD!
  21. sorry, my typing skills are going downhill......*dies*.....
  22. The link worked when he posted it. And it doesn't matter where he was born, his parents are both American citizians, so that makes him one too. He could be born on Mars and would still be a natural citizian. (though, wouldn't that be cool? you could tell people you're a real matian! )
  23. Because it's a pain in the ass to sit there and roll a lot of change if you don't have the fancy machine to help you. And a lot of banks are now charging to count the change, even if you have an account there and are just depositing it. Which is rediculious because they have to open home-rolled coins and put them through the machine anyways.
  24. I know a guy that had one of those water cooler bottles....when it was full, he was able to take his family on vacation........ i prefer to use cash because if i rely on my debit card, i'll overspend....that's happened so many times in the past........
  25. i have some kind of low, black planter thing i got in high school as a prop for a play....last time i empted it, i had enough to go to Akon and buy me a kick-ass messenger bag with Vash on the front.
