The kinds of things I see people say over time on here really makes me doubt how many are honest about who they are. How tragic.

It's the internet, Clove. The biggest masquerade of human-kind. 

How honest would you be, considering the fandom and the people it attracts, and the general opinion of said people?

So I have a question for those in the know: you know how with some SSDs you can't mix them with other brands because of the controller mismatch, are you able to with Samsung one's? Thinking about getting a 850 Pro 512 ($400 bucks!) but don't see the point if I can get something of the equivalent that will work for cheaper.   

Oh, and are hybrids any good? Thinking about getting one as a slave/backup.

Welcome to the Internet where anyone can be anything they want.

By the way, did you know I'm a Fox? Quack!

May want to put that in bits and bytes, that's where a lot of people look for help.

 

Also, please save me from this incredibly boring science class, where time has slowed to a stop and its just meaningless numbers. I have only the promise of English and a wonderful yogurt granola bar to keep me going.

I've come to know a precious few people who are, and I hold them very close. I had a lot more to say, but having thought about it for a while before posting I'll just leave it that I grew tired of being that way.

Ah well it's a sad reality that people will always hide and lie, but it does make you appreciate honesty, doesn't it? Precious little of it in the world.

 

 

In other news my art teacher is more helpful for English, English careers and planning than my English teacher and my careers teacher.

No I mean knowledge in English and writing career paths, though she speaks English as well as most people.

I do believe Nova is beyond our help.

Actually there is hope for Nova. It is the ghetto blacks that don't stand a chance.

I'm still around... I'm just recovering from university ending, my job changing things up and a multitude of trips out of state and house work/remodeling...

 

I am not forever-gone... just on long hiatus! :S

I hope to be back after next week, since I'll be in Disney World all of next week, and until then I am busy helping put in carpet and playing Stellaris in the down-time...

Well glad to see you around here, again!

I saw a possum on my regular walk today. Second time I've seen him and the second time he's scampered beneath the brush before I could grab a pic.

Will stuffing my mouth with blasting caps ans hitting myself in the face with a spade get rid of my headache? Because it's that or sleeping through fourth period.

Ask to see the nurse for some Advil. If it's sinus pressure ask for a nasal decongestant.

We don't have a nurse!

That's unfortunate. Our schools were mandated to have at least one official nurse, if not to control and distribute the higher risk meds (adderall, ritalin) then at least for liability purposes. Ask your teacher if they have any. They always do; handling kids is a headache.

I find it odd we don't have one. I don't think any in my school's have them. As for the teacher, I bet my current teacher has some, dealing with this class. However kids aren't even allowed to take medication at school. Not even antacids. They don't trust anyone. 

Oh and this is wonderful. My eyes are now tearing up and itching. Not sure if it's allergies, but those don't account for this headache since it isn't sinuses. Oh and now my neck hurts and ugfhhgeh why? This video is so loud too.

That's awful. I hate how common this is, too.

Parents often come of as entitled because they made you or something along those lines. Honestly though they damned me to a life of illness...

Well every time I see a new account created I don't ever see them post anywhere. It makes me wonder if it's actually people. The anti-bot software was updated though.

A lot of people join sites and never end up using them much.

Until Phoenix I never stayed at a forum more than a week or two.

Not a unique problem.

Heh.

That statistic you gave is odd, though.  So they just join to leave?

The problem is, a lot of furries just aren't well-adjusted people.

Once you've convinced yourself you have thick skin, all types of diseases will rot you from the inside.

Ehhh... Too morbid.

I don't think the emotional or mental punch can be avoided, but the time that damage can be noticed is variable. How people take criticism or insults is no different.

Yup. Either forgetfulness, not enough like-minded people, none of their friends are here, etc. There's a plethora of reasons that they join and then never come back.

See if I'd know what I was getting into when I made an account I'd have spun on my heel and walked right out. 

These fellows wise up in time, it seems.

I should have lashed out on my first day on the forum.

If I did that this forum would cease to exist.

Let me tell you a story about 2011 LOLFurries/Furluminati forum and me lashing out.

We didn't come back online for ~6 months.

Hey check it out.

I'm half way to my goal of 2K likes!

I'll have to do something special to celebrate when I hit 2K likes.

Not a cake. Something different. Hmm...

If "The Dude" has taught me anything, it is this: any problem can be overcome with a good game of bowling. I think I'll go bowling.

 That's because they have a brain.

Completely derped in science class. I related the wave we were studying (wavelength and frequencies and stuff) to hamburger helper. When asked why I proceeded to answer "because noodles." 

 

What I meant was the wave looked like a spiral noodle.

Don't worry it gets better. I was handed this in English.

Somebody had printed a stack of them.

Best use of printer ink ever.

WTF kind of school do you go to?

Are you sure it is actually a "school?"
