rachel - Ha-ha. Oh, no no. I thought it was great. I laugh at anything. Heheh. :smiley:

Actually, I am seriously considering doing that… :wink:

Mitch - Awesome! It would be great if he could be a member, here. :mrgreen:

rachel: Now that would be the most awesomest thing in the world!

Since I was told to post this here, so I will:

I was having lunch ther other day. And my mom had left to go to her class. So I was at home fixing my self a Banquet Rib TV Dinner for lunch. I got it fixed and went to go eat it. I was cutting the rib and all of the sudden. Something happend and my whole TV dinner except the potatos ended up in my lap. I got mad and threw my fork. And well… I broke the Kitchen window. I was so lucky that I was not grounded.

Anyways here’s some Pictures of the damage:

nightwheel: I’m glad that no one was seriously hurt.

Not really interesting but … we finally got cable and wireless and the works! So now my (Miss Mary) Mac is online for the first time! And now I can watch and upload as many youtube videos as I want - helps now that I got excellent quality footages.

It was worth the two days of stress and agony, even having to lug the Mac across the parking lot and onto the second floor of the Mall. I think my sculpting classes are really giving me loads of arm strength- never could lift the Mac tower before yesterday. :open_mouth:

So you have broadband now, FONY? That’s really cool. It makes such a difference to your 'net experience, doesn’t it? :wink:

Ha-ha!

rachelcakes: Oh yeah, such a difference! xD I’ve dealt with dial-up for as long as I’ve had the internet, and though I dealt with it it really is a lot easier for me now. :smiley:

Our boiler broke two weeks ago. The first thing I did was ring up British Gas, and they quickly sent someone round to switch off the boiler because the whole house just stunk of gas. They then told us that to repair it, it would cost a little over £1100 and would take six hours.

I then rang up to book an appointment for the repairs, and they said that the next available engineer for such a big job would be in 2 to 3 months. This would mean a very long time without heating or hot water- up until then, baths for us consisted of boiling a kettle and heating a few pans of water.

I then rang up a different company, who came round the same day, fixed it for £300, replaced only one part, and took a single hour.

A warm bath never felt so good. :laughing:

One time my friend and i wre in a playground looking for cool crystal rock looking things. there were some boys there doing the same thing. well, we forgot to see if anyone was looking when we buried them to keep them safe. so the boys saw where we hid them and decided to dig them up and keep them after we left. then we came back and saw that the boys had stolen our rocks. so we hid behind a bush and saw where they buried our rocks. and after they left, we dug them up and took our rocks back and the ones the boys had collected too. and they are still inthat playground! under the slide i think. exept i don’t care about them anymore :smiley:

I was at TGI Friday’s yesterday and the name of our server was Flo, she even sounded like Flo from the Movie Cars. Thought that was interesting.

Here’s a story …

My grandpa spotted a seagull with an injured wing in my neighbor’s yard. My mum’s used to those sorts of things, and she took him in. She taped his beak shut while she was bandaging his wing. It was pretty funny because he somehow got it off and was staring her right in the face and she immediately backed off - having experience with seagulls I do know they peck hard. Anyway, when she was on the phone talking to our vet, she told my sister to put the seagull down on the floor. The bulldogs thought it was food until it started moving really quick. He made such a funny soundless walk down the hall and into the dining room with my sister hot on his heels.

We still have him- had to get his wing amputated, and we’re looking into giving him to a wildlife care center. He’s doing fine- we’ve been feeding him scraps of Costco chicken. :smiley:

This happened over three hours ago:

My mother was looking for something in my wardrobe. But she didn’t find it, instead she found many old toys and plushies, including a Jessie doll (without her hat) and a Dory keychain. There were even some Digimon plushies. The commentary from my brother was funny:
“You can still sleep with all those monsters in your wardrobe?”

Well, not the ost interesting thing. But oh well…

Cool stories you guys.

Here’s one. I was talking about Smash brawl with my friends when a rap battle broke out. THese guys were so hilarious, but they had to move away for interupting people’s lunch.

Hey, guys. Here’s an update on a previous story I posted about. Remember when I made the announcement that Johnny might be shooting one of his upcoming movies in Wisconsin? I’ve got news for you, he is… or at least I think/hope so.

The film in question is called Public Enemies in which Johnny plays John Dillinger. The crew will be shooting a scene this month in Milwaukee (they’ve found a bank there that’s perfect for the scene they’re going to shoot) , and they’re shooting also in Columbus, Wisconsin as well. The film is directed by Michael Mann (director of Miami Vice , Ali , and Collateral) and distributed by Universal Pictures.

In addition, two other films are shooting in Wisconsin as well. The films are Blue World (which is shooting in Milwaukee) and a film whose title I can’t remember as of late.

So I get a call from the bank the other day. Apparently someone got hold of my credit card number. they used it to buy a $2,000 dell laptop and a bunch of iPods and ended up mazing out my credit card. However they did not have the correct expiration date and that is what raised the red flag for my credit card company. The bank covered all the fraudulent charges.

Close one, aZnCdn! :astonished:

I have this group of people at my schol who love smash and use cheats to strengthen their skills. When I challenged them, I played with no cheats and won. I was like, “okay, it goes like this. Either I use cheats and I’m indestructible, or you don’t and you just plainly suck.”

This is not exactly a good story but I need to vent and if I vent elsewhere I’ll be ignored as usual but at least if I post here I’ll have some sort of chance.

I was waiting for my teacher to come to class, so my friends and I were talking and complaining to one another about how we can’t get our paintings done, usual banter. And the teacher’s assistant (this is after weeks of muttering bad things under his breath and to some of our faces) drops in on our conversation and tells me that if I can’t tell the difference between light and dark (never said I couldn’t) that I must be retarded and I should drop the class. He also hurled at me some more insults; my friends were way too shocked to say anything … somewhere along the line he randomly said “At least I’m not the one who’s fat” as if that had anything to do with it.

Yes, I’ve had bad classes and bad teachers and dealt with them and was willing to deal with this one as well. Apparently the assistant revealed the teacher’s true feelings since when the teacher comforted me he told her “why don’t you just tell them the truth??” and denied everything he had ever said to me.

I filled out a report and luckily got into another painting class with the nice teacher that spoke to us.

I feel like such garbage right now, and if I didn’t know not to let the things people say get to me like that, I would’ve gone and committed suicide. I’m so lucky this incident didn’t occur in high school, because chances are I would no longer be here.

I hate myself for crying because I’m sick of being emotional that way. I didn’t even tell my mother what happened because I’m afraid I’ll start crying all over again. It’s bad enough I’m starting to right now as I’m writing this.

I’m so glad to have gotten this out. :stuck_out_tongue:

I won’t let his words deter my plans to become any sort of artist, but it really hit me hard. I know not all people in this world are like this and despite the sorts of garbage I’ve had to put up with throughout my entire life, I still hold on to that hope that there are good people in this world.

There are a lot of bad art teachers in the world. Maybe I’ll post some of my lame art teacher stories later, I don’t feel like it right now.
