ha I was right, they did switch!!!!!!!!!!!!!
but yeah, people think I'm weird alot, but I just think they're boring. Obviously I do new stuff all the time to keep myself interested, but they never do so I get bored. And some of the new stuff is weird, but its more interesting than the normal stuff.

Went to salt lake for a game convention thing for a COD4 tournament.. but we got there just as the Halo 3 one was starting, and the COD4 one ended.. :\
On top of that, I'm done with energy drinks.. I got one to wake me up so I could prepare for the long drive, and I felt like complete shit. I was really lightheaded and felt like throwing up. I really shouldn't have been driving around an urban area in the By the time we got to Dennys for some food, I felt better, but cried from laughing at the littlest things.. Like my friend saying Vanilla, 'Veyenilla'. I almost passed out laughing so hard.
The convention wasn't all that cool, either.. The coolest part really was the LAN parties they had.. COD4, Halo 3 (I guess.. I wouldn't really bother with it though), Counterstrike, Team Fortress, etc. But if you wanted any chance at getting in the tournament you'd have to either go early on the last day, or go for the full 3 days.. which, I wouldn't do.

Where did that happen? I highly doubt shadowkhas's rant was directed toward you.

3/4 of my post that was asking tural about harassment was removed so it only had the exchange rate thing.

Because your spelling is incredibly unreasonable.

I pointed out that last i knew harassment was not tolerated according to this.
And yet tural seemed to have gone back on his words by harassing a member for his typing skills.
As far as im concerned bullying for typing skills is a pretty petty thing and is also in my opinion rather pathetic.

Can I come?

Anyways, I feel like general shit. I have absolutely no energy, so I'm basically dead in my chair, only moving my hands. I have to take a piss, but it takes too much effort to stand up and walk five literal feet to the bathroom.

Also, call me a lazy fuck, but Summer Vacation is damn short. Maybe it's just that I'm older and time is more insignificant than it was to me give years ago, but Summer is nearly half over, and I haven't done jack shit. I want more time.

Yesterday, i went out with my girl friend, and got really mad becuase of something that happened. It wasnt something either of us did, it was because of the way people were looking at us. We are both biracial, ie Half Black Half White, but from looking at me most people cant tell and assume im 100% black. She is lighter skinned, and has curly( not quite afro) hair. People were staring at us as if we had committed some crime serious as murder. It wasnt from a single group either, i could hear people from both ( white & black) making comments and staring. WTF

Yea people are retarded. I was with a friend the other day and we saw a couple where there was a white guy with a black girl. My friend said that it was disgusting and I just shook my head and said shut up. I myself like black woman and think of them as the same as any other race.

shadowkhas · Post by **shadowkhas** » Mon Jul 21, 2008 5:28 am

If any of my friends said something resembling that, I'd feel ashamed for even having been friends with them. People can be the biggest idiots at times, that sucks that you had to get that from them.

guysullavin · Post by **guysullavin** » Mon Jul 21, 2008 11:32 am

look, i think its horrible, but some people are just affected by things that others arn't, i know it sounds stupid, but im pretty sure theres something that just makes you feel disgusted, and just wants you to turn away. its not something we can help though, all we can do is just not make a point about it. because if you do, then your going to get in serious shit.

There is a word for that, it's called racism.

There is a double standard to racism. Thats all I will say, because I dont wanna get banned.

We're all prejudice to some degree deep down inside. No matter how you act on the outside, you secretly are intolerant of at least one type of person.

Anyways, next topic.

Lies.

People are taught racism, it's not something that is natural. Not everybody is racist, I'm not. Period. I don't judge people by their color, I judge them by their actions.

The reason there are racist people in this world is because they were brought in contact at one point or another the false idea that one race is better then another.

People believing in racism is an admitance of ignorance.

/rant.
