What a terrible way to teach spelling. It's accurate sometimes. How about coming up with a rule that works, otherwise don't preach the stupid shit. People would argue that there are some exceptions. Bull, there are a lot of exceptions. It doesn't work. That's like if I said all words start with Q, except the exceptions to that rule. It's just dumb.

I remember getting screwed up by that rule! Now firefox and spell-check are helping me to live a normal life again XD

Today completely sucked. I don't know what happened but I went to school today, and some jackass is spreading rumors about me. He was telling my friends that I was talking behind their backs. Then he went and fucking wrote some bullshit e-mail. In the e-mail he just made fun of my friends. He signed it from me. then left it all over the school. I lost a lot of friends today. But oh well. It's time to move on, I've been made fun of in the past and I really don't give a shit what people think of me. So I'm just going to mind my own business and not even get into it. At least I still have friends that know I didn't do it.

if you have proof expose him and then let it go.

Because that's the way high school drama works. You present evidence and everyone forgives you. Everyone is sensible. Happy ending. Yeah.

Honestly if your friends can't deal with that and understand it wasn't you, they're barely friends at all.

Anyway, new rant:

I have really bad neck hair in the back. I mean, it's not the usual amount I see people with, it's really thick. I can't really shave it off since I can't see it, and when it is shaven off (by like my mom or dad) it grows back frickin quick. Now i'm no expert in hygene, and all that sort of thing (I don't really have all that much facial hair, other than that annoying fuzz in the mustache area, so generally I don't shave) but do people normally cut that crap off regularly, or am I just a weirdo who has an abnormal amount of it? All i can say is that it's frickin annoying.

Do it yourself next time.
Get a compressed air can, hold it upside down, spray on a Q-tip, apply to wart area, ???, profit!

I thought I had something like a wart, I have no idea what it actually was (my dad had seen it and said it was a wart) but I ended up gouging it out with a pair of tweezers. It bled, a lot. Probably wasn't the method of choice, but hell, it worked.

I've been under the impression that the xbox 360 malfunctions whilst due to a design flaw, that poor handling was the main catalyst behind it.

After treating my xbox360 with love and respect (well, the most one can give for a console)...I got 3 red lights. This is just really upsetting...Came home from the movies hoping to snipe some Brute but I am met firstly with a frozen boot screen, then nothing.*sigh* 360 was always a good thing to relax with after a whole day of work/study

So I won't be playing you guys again for awhile sorry.

I told you I would get my hands on it.

Seriously, that sucks though. I ended up renting an xbox. I know it sounds strange but it was a great way to chill after school and shit loads of homework. Get to talk to friends, kill people online, etc. On the downside, the only time I find to play is usually on the weekend

.

Oh, and I'm pissed that Microsoft hasn't sent me a box to ship my xbox in. I waited almost two weeks for it and then I called them, got "Oh, we sent it but I'll send another one for you. Should only take 3-4 business days." Well now its been over a week.

a far far dream............

all Microsoft wants is money if they really cared about customer satisfaction we would have a portable 360, custom UI builder program to make custom interfaces for yourself and others and much much more.

the day Microsoft turns into a customer friendly company is the day my name officially become billy bob joe dog diggidy

Are you referring to what Detox and GTAF said or what CE Mike said?
