No.
I think it depends on the college. Mine won't until about the same time they release the papers.
Now, in response to YPU: all Brits receiving results get to have a nervous breakdown until at least elevn tomorrow morning. And then after that either hysterically happy jubilations or commiserations time.

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Koorly, wow, that's late to be paniking.
We get our results (we think) between 9 and 10!
G'luck to y'all getting them =D.
G'luck to those who need results to get into uni. G'luck to all you AS people.
Me? Not nervous at all. Why get worried about something out of your control?

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Just wait for when the time to find out SAT scores comes around. That's when us Americans will be freaking out.

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
I'm beginning to get to the stage where I'm about to freak out and my results aren't until next week. :smalleek:
Gotta think of something else, gotta think of something else!
@V: Old'ns, eh? Getting a bit ahead of yourself there. :smalltongue:

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
It's because of all of us old'ns panicking :smalltongue:

Because it was totally under my control and is something that might just make up for 5 odd years worth of crap?
Not meant in an angry way, just in a way that totally empathises with the worriers.

Either that or its third. Although I think it was first...

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Atlanta has the most airplane traffic, but Heathrow has the largest number of passengers. Thus both are the world's busiest depending on your definition of 'busy'. From wikipedia here.

Well, you managed to infect me. I had a dream about going in to collect my results. And my schooling was finished a long time ago.

I'm So Worried (Monty Python song written by Terry Jones):
I'm so worried about what's hapenin' today, in the middle east, you know
And I'm worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow
I'm so worried about the fashions today, I don't think they're good for your feet
And I'm so worried about the shows on TV that sometimes they want to repeat
I'm so worried about what's happenin' today, you know
And I'm worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow
I'm so worried about my hair falling out and the state of the world today
And I'm so worried about bein' so full of doubt about everything, anyway
I'm so worried about modern technology
I'm so worried about all the things that they dump in the sea
I'm so worried about it, worried about it, worried, worried, worried
I'm so worried about everything that can go wrong
I'm so worried about whether people like this song
I'm so worried about this very next verse, it isn't the best that I've got
And I'm so worried about whether I should go on, or whether I should just stop...
I'm worried about whether I ought to have stopped
And I'm worried about, it's the sort of thing I ought to know
And I'm worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow...
I'm so worried about whether I should have stopped then
I'm so worried that I'm driving everyone 'round the bend
I'm worried about the baggage retrieval system they've got at Heathrow.

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Heh... That's just what I kept thinking of :smallbiggrin:

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Yes, I find the two are somewhat inseparable, not helped by the fact that I have it on record. Yes, that's right world, tremble in awe at my ownership of not one, but two record players!!! With an auto-retracting Expo and an auto-repeat, multi-speed, stacker HMV, I am unstoppable!! ...I just have to come up with some dastardly plan I can use them in which people might try to stop and in doing so prove the accuracy of my prior utterance. ...damn, foiled again.
It's high time I washed some oak trees...

You kidding me? I couldn't wait for that day, because I knew I'd have an awesome score! :smallbiggrin: Actually, it was only mediocre. 1980 on the 2400 scale... :smallfrown:

So why do you keep screaming? :smallconfused:
And has anyone else noticed how the smilies at the right are never in the same order? :smallconfused:
EDIT: My brother is watching Star Wars. I watched a couple scenes. I wanna be a jedi again. :smallconfused::smalltongue:
EDIT2: Actually no.

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
On a week when the temperature never got above 20 degrees, and a month where 25 was unseen, I am suffering a three-pronged bug attack. The aphids have returned, undaunted by the soap wash, the chili-and-oil spray, or the manual squishings, to their beloved pair of potted plants. (Sorry, Serpentine, suggestions failed.) The parsley stems are plated with soft blue-gray beetles. A singular but steady trickle of wasps likes to enter this room, yet I can see no wasp nest on that side of the house; I make allowances for being short and unable to see the top side of the jutting bit of this story.
I flaunted my SAT score enough the last time the topic arose.

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Argh! What is this ice cream? It's like razor sharp ice crytals with flavouring! :smallyuk:
Eating ice cream is supposed to be fun...
EDIT: But I'm happy again now. Because I watched a Monty Python skit. :smallbiggrin:

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Well ladybugs eat aphids Quincunx. You can just train an army of those and your plants should be fine.
-
Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
You should put pineapple on it. Or cherries. Or caramel sauce. But not all three. That would be weird. :smallwink:
Alternatively, you could just let it sit out for a bit.

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
OK, that's the last time I talk about dreams on this board...
I had one of my more just plain wierd ones, and I think it was Playground related...
I think it was based on Playground Squares over in Structured...except Atreyu the Masked Llama was either a set of Wii-chucks or my passcard for work encased in some kind of Star Trek-esque glass dome and asked questions in the voice of Otto from the Simpsons...
...and these are my pleasant dreams.
Anyway, topics at hand:
aphids-no idea, ladybugs eat 'em, but that's all I know
ice cream-it's been too bloody long since I've had any...I should remedy that.
-
Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
Yeah I tried again for GitP-related dreams, and failed. Got some crappy Eve dreams... Not particularly interesting, though the scenery was beautiful.

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
I wish I had nice dreams, I just don't have any dreams at all really. Or I forget them if I do.
Also, Tragic_Comedian: That avatar is 120x120, sorry but it's bugging me. :smalltongue:

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
If you go check the Results thread, you'll see that I can shut up now.
Jibar happy. :smallsmile:
The artist's impression is very much on the ball though. :smallamused:
We just didn't have any plungers.
DAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!

Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
I had a strange dream last night. I can't remember what it was but I remember it being strange.
-
Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
My dreams are usually either exceedingly wierd like last night's, or exceedingly unpleasant (not the nightmare fashion...just, really unpleasant to remember or think about).
-
Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
I get a lot of nightmares. Something like 80% of my dreams are unpleasant. The other 20% of my dreams range from the weird to the x rated.
-
Re: Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101
I rarely get x-rated dreams. And frankly, I like it that way. My dreams are more interesting this way.
