Random Rants VII: Why do they ALWAYS do that?!

[Annex]

It depends on how bored/interested in 60's rock one is.

Are you having an actual rave at your house?

 

[Ekolite]

Not a good idea lol, particularly if there are gate crashers and even more so if your parents are of the ''I care if my house gets trashed by strange teenagers'' sort. Good luck though .

 

[mythmonster2]

No, just a hurricane.

Ah, you live in Houston. Good luck!

We got pretty much nothing up here in northwest FL.


(maybe I should say 'down here'...)

WHY DOES EVERYBODY HAVE TO BE SO GODDAMN ANAL ABOUT USING TIMES NEW ROMAN?

Sure. 12-point font. Fine. I like it. But still. Why is it necessary to use Times New Roman on EVERY SINGLE PAPER? My font of choice is Garamond. It's quite legible.

Here is an example of Garamond font. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

See? Perfectly fine to use. Not like I'm using Wingdings or something like that. So why the hell do I have to use Times New Roman? There are plenty of other fonts out there, so why do I have to use only this one?

This really pisses me off. WHO CARES WHAT FONT YOU USE AS LONG AS YOU CAN READ IT?

 

[Ekolite]

In that size I would say that that font is difficult to read, and your teachers aren't going to want to spend an hour with a microscope trying to read your homework. TBH it isn't the most clear of fonts.

 

[salty mud]

That font is illegible. End of.

Rant: The girl I have been ranting (and raving) about lately has already got a boyfriend. Why I wasn't informed, I don't know. Perhaps the person who told me was 'fibbing.' Either way, it is a very unpleasant scenario to be in.

Why's everybody so excited about (or dissapointed at the lackthereof) natural disasters?

Using alternate fonts gives it the appearance that you're trying to artificially enhance your paper or make up for lack of content. It also creates the potential for the teacher to be distracted. In other words, when everybody uses the same font, the only thing the teacher can evaluate you on is the content of your work, which is the only thing it should be graded on.

It certainly would explain a lot. That'll teach you not to bring out "teh hugz" before they're due.

I'm sorry this happend to you though.

You don't think they're cool?

Why did I have to learn cursive!! I NEVER use it, except to sign my name. But why bother learn/teaching it? I hope it dies within a few generations, I'm going to grow up and write in cursive so I can piss off the kids !

They hurt people sometimes!

They tried to indoctriniate me into that cult back in grade school. Good thing I was a wall back then!

oh my gosh... history class proved to be even more ******** today than it was ever.... we took the most pointless notes.... and my teacher proved to me that I know more than him.

I was seriously about to stab myself in the eye because doing that would prove to be more useful than taking this course...

"Mound builders were known to build mounds, and other temples"

real great notes..... I don't know how he had soo many

 

[Ecofarm]

People misspelling a word in the title of their thread.

A sure sign of worthless crap, and I think you know what I mean.

Don't splat me!

If I was told of the situation, I wouldn't have showed some possibly amourous intentions. I'm a bit confused to be honest...

 

[Bigfoot3814]

Don't splat me!

That was not me splatting you... that was a reflection of you being splatted by society.

Well if I were you I would find out the truth immediately. If someone's not having fun with you, you won't look like a dick if you actually didn't know. If someone is, you have a good oportunity to do... something... I don't know what, but something.

 

[salty mud]

I have no idea what you mean there, but I gather you are trying to say stop being a freak and act normal?

I get the picutre.

Dude WTH! NO! All I'm saying is that if she thought you might seem like a jerk if you she thought you knew she had a boyfriend the whole time.
