Random Raves XIX: My nipples explode with delight!

I love cardgame's avatar.

Awwwwww Yeahhhhhh

Anywho, I don't like the PSAT for the simple fact that I never heard from it. 33 on the ACT taken the same year but apparently I wasn't good enough to reach any-finalist/noteworthy stage for the PSAT. Grr.

But this is a rave thread! Accordingly, I'm going to hang out with friends tomorrow and my gf on Wednesday, and I have no homework tonight. Woohoo!

My PSAT Exam is on the 15th. What is this I don't even

 

[choxorn]

I got to "Commended Student" which is the thing just below Semi-Finalist, applying to the top few percent or so who aren't in the top ~15,000.

(P)SATs are worthless pieces of junk.

 

[Takhisis]

But a-SATes rule.

 

[choxorn]

I prefer Kill-SAT's, myself. You just can't beat the ability to shoot giant lasers from space.

 

[Takhisis]

Well, what is A.Sate, you silly choxorn?

 

[Verarde]

My friend popped in again for counseling. I feel good.

SAT is so Eastern.

ACT is where it's at.

Heh. Start at ~:44 for an example of farming with dynamite.

Just saw a rare sight: A Coast Guard Black Hawk flying off towards Virginia Beach. That might sound pretty normal, but I live about 300 miles from the ocean. Also, it's raining steadily. Why would a Coast Guard helicopter be flying in the rain 300 miles from the coast? Oh well.

In other rare sightings, as I was walking to math class I saw a white Lambourgini parked on the side of the road, a nice one to. I couldn't tell what make it was, but it was too small to be a Gallardo and it wasn't a convertable so it wasn't a Spyder. It also didn't look like the new Aventador.

Diablo or Murcielago would have to be my guess.

 

[Ajidica]

Yeah, it looks like a murcielago after I checked google. I thought murcielagos were bigger though.

Is there a nearby airport. Maybe they broke down and had to get repairs and were flying it back.

 

[W|M]

It could have been stolen.

No. And even if there were, I doubt it would be closer than any airports closer to the beach. In fact, there's an airport just off the beach, along with a military airport a little further inland, both of which would probably work on Coast Guard Helicopters.

Probably swift water rescue training - is there a river nearby?

Yes, but not nearly deep enough. Heck, canoes have a hard enough time going through without scraping the bottom.
