A Thread in Which Banter Most Random is Expulsed Into Existence, By Ravens_cry #142

[Scorpina]

I have no major quarrel with beaches (though sand between my toes bugs me), but I'm a vegetarian and uncooked meat makes me very, very queasy sometimes.

[cycoris]

But what kind of ice cream did he get you?

I got a scoop of peppermint and a scoop of grapefruit sorbet, in a cup. It was delicious.

[Nano]

I got results for my compsci AP test just now. A 2.

Fffffffffff.

[Phase]

In my dream I pass the exams. its me.

and THEN the big proctor comes. for a little you-didnt-fail

Don't worry, it's not going to change the outcome of her rapport card.

Why? The sight? The smell?

Also, you really should try barbecued vegetables sometime. Or at least properly grilled ones.


Hmm. Peppermint and Grapefruit melting together... If you say so, Cycoris.

So what if you're a vegetarian? I have access to veggie burgers and veggie dogs that are actually very tasty. We'll have a veggie BBQ!

[Cogwheel]

Lillith: How do you survive that job? And more to the point, people like that. I don't know how you have the patience >_> I suggest Eadin's idea, possibly combined with actually dropping the kid into a pit deep below Moria. That bit might be a little difficult to arrange, though.




Oh, and since everyone seems to be offering help: If anyone needs help with Japanese (strictly help with existing work or actual questions, not "teach me", since I'm the worst teacher ever) or wants stuff translated, let me know

[Trobby]

Just got back from seeing Toy Story 3.

...;w; My goodness that was a good movie. Nearly cried right at the end.

[Commander McCoy]

Fffffffffff.

On the subject of AP tests... I got a 4 on both US History and English Lang/Comp. Woo!

[Nano]

Methinks perhaps you need to sit a moment and consider tact.

[Superglucose]

I got a 1 on the programming exam. A 4 and a 4 on the calc/physics exams.

[Rawhide]

I got A 4 on the printer.

[Roland St. Jude]

I got A 4 on the printer.

That was terrible. You Audi take that back.

[CoffeeIncluded]

I got a 5 on Euro history last year. Wait, you mean that this year's AP test results are back? Where?

[Ravens_cry]

My favourite Veggie Burgers are the ones that are not ashamed of thier meatless status and do no try to pretend to be meat, but an excellent tasting patty in their own right. Like these.
When I want meat, I want meat, not some spun soy fibres dipped in oxo cube juice.
But hey, each to their own. I am a proud omnivore, food of all kinds is a joy for me.

This is why they are our leaders.

I've gotten a 5 on a major test in high school. Showed the grade to the people at college and they gave me credit for a course for it. Same goes for a few 3s I got on other major high school tests... 12 college credits for those grades. (I was real sick the week I got those 3s. If I wasn't hacking my lungs out, I'm sure I could've gotten another point or two...)

Ugh, I sympathize. I had a huge math test and english project last year right after I was out sick for a week and nearly hospitalized from swine flu. I did horribly on both and I ended up getting Bs for the final quarter in both and it brought my average down to a 90 in both classes when I should have done much better. And I had an SAT2 in chemistry a week later and I think I lost about 20 points because of it.

I'm lucky they let me bring a thermos of hot tea to the AP exams. The person checking people's thermoses for Vodka by pouring on his arm and smelling is lucky that he trusted me that I had tea.

Wait, you could bring a thermos to AP exams in your school? In my school we could only bring a bottle of water with no label.

Also, it's true that you start hallucinating with a high enough fever.

[Rutskarn]

Rutskatar 3.0 is officially in the trial/tweaking/demo stage. Now is the time to tell me you hate it, to no effect.

EDIT: Well, I've seen it in the sunlight now, and the error log is as follows.

1.) Background's too orange.

2.) Head's too damn small.

3.) CHANGE

I'll get to work on 1.) and 2.) presentlike.

EDIT 2: That's a little better. I'll tighten up a few little details later.

No, we couldn't, but they let me anyway because I needed it. One person was kicked out because their "water" was vodka.

[Nomrom]

Yeah,this is definitely true. Probably the weirdest experience in my life was when I had a fever of about 104-105 and started hallucinating in my room.

[Recaiden]

Really? Real life can get so much weirder.

Also, it's true that you start hallucinating with a high enough fever.

Definitely. It's very fun. And by fun, I mean horrifying in several different ways. Afterwards, it's amusing though.

[Coidzor]

SO STUPID. I hate it when people do things like that.

[Rawhide]

Two questions spring to mind. Why on earth would you do that and what is so problematic about vodka (I mean, taking it to a text is stupid, but it is hardly performance enhancing)?

[Dallas-Dakota]

I got a 1 on the programming exam. A 4 and a 4 on the cat/physics exams.

How bad is it that I read it likes this?

[Cobalt]

Rutskatar 3.0 is officially in the trial/tweaking/demo stage. Now is the time to tell me you hate it, to no effect.

I ha- Oh. Well, if it won't do anything, then bah.

Though the eyes stare into my soul.

[Coidzor]

I guess just fairness. No performance altering at all.

No spiking other people with vodka they thought was water to get them to do worse. That sorta thing?

*shrug* Some people claim they do better if they test with a little bit of alcohol in their system. I don't buy it. Is silly. But might help partially self-medicate test anxiety in a bad way.

[SpiderMew]

I just got a certificate from the university i go to, saying i made the deans list.

w00t w00t for good grades!
