I know you've told us about this before, but in my opinion, that's a really dumb system. When I was in high school, I knew lots of kids who did very well on their math HW assignments because their parents were so desperate for them to get good grades that they "checked" the assignments (read: told them what to do, step for step). Some of them also had tutors who served the same purpose. These same kids then took the exams and did poorly because they were completely incapable of critical thinking and problem-solving on their own.

If these kinds of kids were going to school in Texas, I'm sure that they'd be getting A's in math classes even though they didn't deserve to.

What? The most you get when the grades are dropped is about 5 points, and every grade dropped is something that does not count for much

In my experience parents usually dont know much more than students on useless school stuff. They can help a little but most cant or wont get you any higher. And dropping a grade only changes so much.

I'd ride it. :D

I was watching the news about some Occupy Denver protest and some dumbass hippie yelled "Guns dont belong here, this is America!" Hippies are stupid. lol

But she has a horrible red-and-black circle for a stomach!

To each his own, I suppose

I am having a very hard time concentrating on my Sociology paper. This is understandable, since I am literally writing about garbage

I am seriously regretting the fact that I did not bring anything with me to eat


I finished that stupid garbage paper though

Think of it as a targeting reticle for your "missile". :D

It's funny because it sounds sexual. :p

The opposite would be MW3's terrifying "Press F To Pick Up Soap" prompt. That's not the kind of thing I want appearing on-screen when I've got a hairy Scotsman nearby.

The school called my house while I was in class the other day to ask why I haven't registered. I really wish I could have been there so I could tell them that it is because they made it impossible since they keep changing a bunch of my passwords around without telling me

Im looking for any skyrim quests where i can fight the thalmor, already did their embassy and broke some dude outta their prison.

Holy shit! Duck, You Sucker is on TV! Seriously, that is the greatest movie of all time.

Thanksgiving kicks ass cant wait for awesome food. Its got family and good food and none of the commercialism crap xmas has, perfect holiday.

Just got back from eating Turkey over at my neighbor's

Things I found out while listening to my dad talk to my neighbors and their family:

1. Somewhere down the line, I have some Mendoza in me

2. My father's great-great-great grandfather was killed by them damn Injuns

3. My father's great-great grandfather (and his brother) had to be put up for adoption becasue of the above

4. My father's great-great grandfather ended up being put into slavery by some goddamn Protestants until he escaped as a teen

Frakkin' Protestants. :mad:

It was after the Slavery was abolished, too

That's just wrong. So, so wrong.

Cant believe how many idiots are doing black friday.

I've been listening to Bathory all day

Non-annoying Black Metal FTW

I just realized that the Power Rangers are racist. The black ranger is black and the asian ranger is yellow.

I guess so? But when they're in the suits, it's actually footage from a Japanes show (with an all Japanese cast... probably). So it wasn't racist originally. Also, in Japan the yellow ranger is a guy.

I realized that I primarily drink out of mugs. That's kind of weird; maybe I should buy myself a big ass Stein for teh lulz

I changed my xbox motto to tactically epic and an error messgae saying a word thats not allowed was used?

Might be picking up "yepic," which is another name for Y!Epic, which is a Yahoo chat client. Try changing it to "Tactically Windows Live Messenger Epic." :p

If you spent your childhood watching that Suite Life show, you had a shitty childhood

Good thing I only watch Hannah Montana reruns. :D

It's been a year, dammit, where are all the new chapters of Black Lagoon?

im drunk and watching beavis and butthaead life is good.

The "Occupy" movement has come to my town. I wonder when the street vendor beatings, vandalism, and sexual assaults begin? :(

I'd pay $1, nothing more.

The occupy movement is here, a bunch of homeless people moved into their park and its pathetic, they never even protest, they just stay in their tents all day.

It's getting to the point where it takes youtube videos their length x2 to completely load. Fucking Comcast, I never had these problems before they took over from Time Warner

I'm surrounded by people, but I still kind of feel alone

Welcome to my world.

It's because almost all of my friends moved away or are only free when I'm busy (and vice-versa). I go days without talking to anyone other than my family (and I don't rewally talk to them that much either). My voice is literally getting weaker because I barely speak

My 6906 won't fully chamber rounds; when I release the slide, it stops just short of being in battery

Anyone know what could be causing this? It's doing this with everything I put in it
