  1. =( I must really, really suck for not even one reply. Even for a negative reply?? ;_; Now Xisto has hurt my feelings.Either that or this is the wrong forum. I couldn't find another forum. I would've posted it in the GrApHiCs whatever forum, but I thought that was for digital stuff. This was the second closest thing. =(
  2. ^ hahaInspired, these are fantastic. You could get paid doing this.....maybe.
  3. Did you not read any of the posts at all? This topic was done so long ago. You make it sound like you only read the first post, and not very well at all. But then in your second paragraph you say that you did read the backposts.I got disproved so long ago, why continue to repeat what people said? I never said evolution refers only to humans, I said evolution consisted of all of life. I believe I thought creation referred only to humans. Of course, I know it didn't, but I had just blanked out and somehow forgot since I was so focused on that subject anyways. The pont of my first post wasn't my misconception of what creationism was. It was the fact that evolution is a process and creationism is the beginning and that's it. Now, taking granted that creationism isn't still happening, it currently is not a process. What I meant to say in my post, was that evolution is the process of which populations change over generations, while creationism was how these creatures were placed on earth/whatever. Meaning, the lollypop taken out of a package neatly wraped is not the same as the licking of the lollypop. The beginning is 'creationism' and the licking is the 'evolution'. With that, we can even combine the two theories and say that creationism happened first and is done for now, and evolution is carrying out the continuation of creationism. Of course, this is only one thought process. People who are still condenced in their religion and continue to think that we are as we were millions of years ago (when humans first existed???) and we have not changed a bit, since God is so almighty and perfect. haha, that's a good way of looking at it though. I like =) Anyways, no9t9, I just felt a bit offended of how you just came on like that. Of course, if you were not talking to me, then my deepest apologies. I just wanted to set things straight.... But then if you were accurate in your post, then my mind must have changed quite a bit from the time I typed up my first post and I'm implementing my current ideas into here. If that's the case, I'll give you a lollypop.
  4. For my Biology Semester long project, we're working on our portfolios this week/weekend and we have to have a theme and cover page etc. So for my project, it's on panic and so I had to make a cover page somewhat related to my topic. For my cover, I did a drawing. Her name is Marina and she's...in a state of shock I suppose. It's from an aerial perspective, so don't be confused or think I'm really bad at porportions. I didn't know what to do for the background.....I was gonna do like, grass or something, but then decided to this psychedelic abstractism kind of thing. It's kinda cool, kinda gay, whatever. It reminds me of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory for some strange reason, but you know. It's like an explosion of color. I tried to keep it as bright as possible, but I really don't have any neon-ish colors anyways. Maybe an excessive use of yellow was put into place? Sorry if it hurts the eyes. Marina was at first supposed to be a somewhat realistic person, but I totally messed up. I tried so hard to make her actually look like she was shocked or scared or something of the sort, but I ended up making her eyes and mouth too big and so there was no room for her nose. So now she looks like some douched up anime character or something. Her hands are disporportionate from her head, but it's okay cause she's not even real. I had a little trouble making her fingers look like they were turned up, but I guess it turned out alright in the end. I messed up her dress thing. It's supposed to look like it's all wavy and stuff, but it just looks like plain crap. Too bad. By the sound of her name, you'd think she should be a blue-dressed girl. Well, I had thought up the name after I did the drawing so that was a bit retarded of me, but I love that name. I hate pink, but my teacher is all like, "omg it has to be cute blah blah" so I just decided pink. But now that I think of it, I should've gone with green...since it's my favorite color anyways. That would've been cool though. Anyways, please look at it, critique and comment. Say anything negative anything positive (although negative would be more helpful, positive comments are nice ) Tell me what I need to fix, what I need to change, etc. I worked pretty hard on it...probably around 2 hours haha. But yeah, when you hold it up in the air and let the light hit it, it looks like a piece of wax paper. Quite interesting anyways. Stats: Time - A span of Wednesday to Saturday, little by little, a total of 7 hours. Title - Marina Medium - Colored Pencil Size - Regular Letter 8.5/11 Tabbed - Psychedelic Marina: http://smg.photobucket.com/user/mi1k/media/marinated.jpg.html
  5. How much would a terabyte be? 100,000 gigabytes? Or 1000 gigabytes? Well, it sounds cool. >_>Who needs any more than like, 100 gigs anyways? My computer runs on 12 gigs. >_>;
  6. =(You stole my topic. I already made a topic exactly like this, but so much more in depth........Anyways, I totally agree though. I hate all the alternating caps, the '1337' speak, the excessive use of acronyms, etc. It's so annoying you just wish that people over the internet would have fun a different way....Besides, it's so hard to read the Internet languages sometimes since people often have their own different interpretations of what characters a letter should be made of. It takes so long to read it, and two times as long to write it. There really is no point in typing like that unless to grab attention or you just happen to feel like looking like an idiot.I'm a huge grammar spelling freak so it really pisses me off sometimes. >_> It's just really stupid to see people degrade themselves and follow fads and use massive amounts of colors, etc. Tacky stuff like this should be kept to like, titles or something to attract attention. But they really shouldn't be used in the body of a post or something.Anyways, people should just at least learn to limit their use of such languages, or atleast learn when the right time is to use it and when not to use it. Of course, there's also those serious Internet fools who get so engulfed in what they're saying and they get so angry when people correct them. haha. >_>;Another thing, is the excessive use of emoticons....I mean, I'm a victim of emoticons myself and I emote just about every second I'm online. It's horrible because it's so annoying, but like, when I'm talking to people on IM, when you have nothing to respond with, but you need to let the other person know that you're atleast reading what they're typing, you really don't have too much of a choice as to what you put...... I mean, for me, it's either "oh" or "" Or something of the sort. I could always say "Oh, that's cool" but that's so retarded. Using 'oh' usually shows uninterest and emoting usually shows 'hey look, i don't care." So you're sorta stuck @_@Anyways, the Internet should be a place where you improve your typing skills and your language skills......not where you make them worse. Because after a while of doing it, you get to the point where you do it in real life as well. Like the whole 'u' & 'r' & '4' stuff.......I used to do that all the time and I'd do it in my school papers as well. But I stopped as soon as I realized it. =/
  7. Oh my god, I know exactly what you mean. The gas prices are crazy. I live in Georgia and we probably have the cheapest of everything. Like, our gas would be 50 cents cheaper than that of California or something. The gas prices seem to enjoy fluctuating For our car, we always buy the premium kind since that's the best for our car to run on....since the gas prices went above $2.10, my dad switched to regular..... It's not like it's a horrible thing, but it's a bad thing that we have to downgrade our gas quality just so that we can keep the price at less than 30 dollars for a full tank. It's so obscene.. The whole Iraq thing......I think that we really had no right in jumping into Iraq's affairs and all. It's just bullcrap to know that Bush was vile enough to almost make the US become an imperialist country by 'freeing' Iraq. I personally think that Bush declared this war mainly because of vengence and oil. The scenario almost reminds me of the whole European countries during the imperialism age when they went throughout the world gathering raw materials that were not found in their own counrties.... We're running out of fossil fuels, so Bush decides to ambush another country and take their reserves? It almost disgusts me. ~_~ Of course, if he did go to war with Iraq just because of the fact that there were rumors that Suddam might've had weapons of mass destructions.....well that's idiotic as well. Just because you think, but you aren't sure, so you choose to infiltrate an entire country, capture their ruler, and mess up their government because of something you're not entirely sure of? It's so annoying to hear this because I sure as hell wouldn't want someone storming into my house because they thought I stole a diamond from the nearby jewelry. But then, there's the fact that since there 'might' be, it's possible that there were and we could've prevented a huge genocide or geocide or something of the sort, but that's just retarded. >_> Why would we have any reason to think that Iraq would use their 'weapons of mass destruction' anyways? Because we help Isreal with their needs and we don't them? Probably because Iraq didn't need it I mean, there are tons of twists and confounding things that could alter the decision of Bush, but overall, I think he made a stupid decision attacking Iraq. Our troops were busy looking for some crazy dictator like person, when we should be looking for Osama. But.......I guess 9/11 isn't as important as rumors.
  8. It's a theory that all animals and all plants, etc, all came from one, common ancestor, that eventually branched off several different ways, allowing animals to adapt to the environment, whether terrestial, arial, or sea. Monkeys probably evolved from something simpler, which evolved from something simpler, etc, until the simplest thing exists, a cell organelle. or something of the sort. Like, the first organism to exist on the earth was probably a tiny little cell, which eventually turned into say....a bacteria. The bacteria would branch off into something more "complex" so that there were more functions available to better survive/have a chance of reproducting better in a certain environment. It's all just branched mumbo jumbo. But I'm sure you get my point. Don't ask where the first organism came from, because evolution itself does not explain that, or attempt to explain it. It's possible that creationism and evolution tie in together, like..... Creationism put the one organism on the earth, and then evolution takes it from that. I mean, who knows what the book of genesis really means anyways. It all depends on how you look at it.
  9. Yeah....I dunno. I suppose you're right. I didn't really see that creationism was talking about the whole....animals etc.. But I dunno. I'm still a bit sketchy about the phrase. I had thought about it a bit and they're both pretty conceptual. Blargh. Cause, creation....is the making of humans and animals and whatnot how they are today, and evolution is the change in those specimens how they are today. Haha....I turned into what I most hated. I did exactly what I hated people doing. >.> I guess I looked too into the evolution thing and not quite the creationism thing. Spring break gets to you huh....
  10. This is crazy...What's the point in having so much space? Just trying to beat the competition #_#I was going through my inbox today and I scrolled down to the bottom and BAM, 96 mb, 5% of space used...."WHOA" I went crazy. But not ecstatic crazy. Just weird crazy. I don't know how they fit so much space on their server thing =/
  11. You know how you go to certain topics, and they read: Evolution vs. Creation or something of the sort? Well, I sorta wanted to ramble about this. It bothers me, because Evolution is something that happens, while Creation is how something began. Correct? Generally, when people think of the term evolution, they think of humans evolving from monkeys. While this is one explination of how humans came to be, it's not describing evolution as a whole. I think some of us tend to become selfish, thinking that humans are the only ones that change can occur in, because our minds are able to do so much more than the minds of our fellow earthling creatures (animals), so we think that evolution is directly talking about humans. But it's not. Evolution is the change of genetic information in a population over generations/time. Right? It talks about all animals. All plants, fungi, bacteria, everything. It's how a population adapts to the environment around it. I hate seeing "Evolution vs Creation" because they're two totally different things. If it was, "Humans evolving from monkeys Vs. Creation" or "The Big Bang Theory vs. Creationism", then that would be more accurate. Is it not? I'm not 100% sure about the whole creation thing, but I thought creation was the theory that God created humans and the world around us in 7 days, as they are now. Yes? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Anyways, I just wanted to point this out, and wanted to advise others, that if you do make a topic about this sort of thing, to never confuse evolution with the human evolution from monkeys. Evolution vs. Creation is like comparing a rock to a shoe. They're totally different (aside from the fact that they are both solids). I dunno, it just bothers me sometimes. >_> And another point. During the arguments in these topics, people also tend to make unjust points against evolution. The thing is, some of these points are easily refuted because the people who make these points don't realize the difference between a theory and well....not a theory. Questions? Comments? Concerns? =)

    The "lol" Phrase

    I know what you mean. The LOL phrase is overused these days. It's like one of those words you use when someone says something that's supposed to be funny, but you don't think it's all that funny, so you say lol so they feel like they're funny.....but they're not. I hate when people use it time and time again...typing it after every single sentence. Freak: Yeah, so then he chopped his head off Retard: LOL yea Freak: And then he goes, "Momma!" Retard: lololololol Freak: Hold on. My mom's calling. Retard: lol Freak: My butt is gigantic. Retard: lol! lame I hate when I talk to someone and all they say is "lol" It's just like shut up! But then again, I'm not exactly all that innocent. I used to, when people talked to me, I'd just respond with "oh". I mean, they were always uninteresting and I didn't know what else to say....so I just...said oh. But I dunno. If you want someone to respond properly, say something interesting ya know? Don't like lol around. It's stupid. >.> But I do it sometimes. Not really. I actually type my stupid emoticons. Which pisses people off. I guess anything blatent pisses people off. ::shrug::
  13. It's just for the internet? Does it delete any windows files you might need or something? Does it delete spyware and adware etc?...Does it have spyware with the download?It sounds neat though. I might try it =)
  14. I'm a student. 10th grader in highschool. (well, where else would you be a sophomore #_#)I don't know what I wanna do when I grow up though. I'll probably end up working the cashier at a mcdonalds cause I'm so inadequite and have such a poor work ethic. Blargh. I get distracted easily. =(
  15. Yay for hulunes! Big 300! yay :)I usually like to post in the Vent Forum. That's where most of my posts are anyways. It's fun to argue about things that bother us or whatever. Just things that piss you off, you know? Plus, the people here give good feedback sometimes. It's usually the same people who give the better feedback, but it's still awesome.And, venting, depending on how much anger you behold on the topic you vent about, can give for a lot of sufficient credits. It's really great I think.The content of the post is usually.....USUALLY related or at least a bit relevent to the topic of the thread you're posting in. And like yusri said, it's not the number of posts, it's the quality of your posts. =)
  16. oh my god. I'm an idiot. I just realized what the problem was. When you get hosting, it COSTS 30 credits, meaning I get 30 credits deducted from my......credits.omgomgomg I figured it out. I'm such a genius. But now I need like, 10 credits.....sucks.
  17. I just had 32 credits....and now I have 2. What the hell??I've been on for less than 20 minutes....how could I just lose all my credits??I'm sad...
  18. Ah....I only skimmed through the topic. Too many replies that are too long to read >_>Anyways, first poster, I know exactly what you mean.When I was 10, I went online to a chat room in AOL. I was just really bored and wanted to talk to someone and I didn't even know what a chat room was. I just wanted to let the time pass by. So, I went into a chatroom that said "Friends" and I was like, "oh yay!" And then I went in and saw, "IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO A HOT 16 YEAR OLD FEMALE, PRES 123" and the like. I was like, "o_O wtf is this?" and then this guy IMed me and he was like, hey. And he was like, "asl?" and I told him this and that, cause I thought he was just some cool guy or whatever. Then he was like, "So, do you masturbate?" And I didn't know what that was. I asked my friend who was online at the time, what it meant, and he was like, "Where'd you hear that from?" I told him this guy was telling me about it (or whatever) and my friend told me to stop talking to him.Internet people and cybersex is really disgusting. It's the same with phone sex. It's all just peverted crap that people these days desire so much. They get horny off of little words that mean nothing except for the pleasure of themselves. It's all totally wrong. People these days......sheesh.
  19. Then leave the site. If they don't know how to critique properly, then they shouldn't critique your art at all. If they can only stick to one style, that's there problem. You should get comments from people who probably actually know what they're talking about. They looked like a bunch of idiots that just liked to follow suit. Lame.
  20. Haha, I did, but then he got all pissy at me. It was really entertaining for a while. It doesn't matter anymore though. He stopped talking to me cause he's mad at me >_>
  21. The fact that it was unreachable to so many people made it more......"Omg I want it so bad". It has 1 gig of space, which is pretty "radical" for a free email account....I mean, compare that to MSN's 2 mb of space...thats for a paid Internet thing.Personally, I don't think it's THAT great right now, but that's just cause it's still revising and so on. Plus, it's a good place to throw spam to and stuff and not worry about it filling up your most used inbox etc.I don't use it for porn....cause I don't......well, I'm not interested.I use it if I need to send big files to myself or just store large amounts of data. Plus, there are some features you just can't get with other free email things. Maybe they'll add more things like a calender, but some of the things like hotmail or yahoo adds aren't really useful. =/ I kinda like gmail cause it's really simple right now =)But in the end, it really isn't anything to boast about. Especially since everyone just about has it.
  22. This isn't good for your friend. It's an unhealthy relationship. He's so totally whipped, you need to give him a punch in the face. Maybe somehow pin her down or something and some how show that she's a backstabbing little *BLEEP*. Unless of course, you have a friendship with the girl and you place a high amount of value on it....If you think, then your friend deserves better than her. Or, maybe you can slap the girl up some >_>
  23. HAHAHA omg, I know exactly what you mean!I met this guy online, and he was like, blah blah blah whatever. We basically just started talking pretty much daily. I talked to him cause I didn't wanna do my homework and I thought he was the same.Turns out, he fell in love with me....or my personality per say, and he's all acting lovey dovey and *BLEEP* over the internet and I'm like, "God, this kid is gay" but I went along with it cause I thought he was just messed up.Turns out, he really was in love with me, and I was like, "Oh God. I can't let this get any further or he'll look like a dumbass when I tell him I'm not interested in some guy over the net" so then I start sorta stop getting on AIM and start ignoring him and whatnot. Then he gets all pissed off cause I'm "avoiding" him. I told him it was for his own good since normal people don't fall so deeply in love with others on the internet. Hell, he doesn't even know me. So then I told him off, and the next day, he comes back and tries to tell ME off. Then he's like, "Omg, I'm done with this *BLEEP*. I can't handle it" >_> so I'm like, "yeah okay, go away"Then after that, he started saying it was my fault cause apparently I led him on and that I lied to him about him being hot and stuff. He really isn't. His head and face is like, it's really unattractive. Plus, he's super annoying. So anyways, He's all like, "Lolol, I dumped her *bottom*!" and I'm just like, "What the hell? Okay, say whatever that will help to rise your self esteem, dumbass."So I'm just sitting there cracking up as he tries to cover his *bottom*. He knows it's his fault cause he's the one who even cried over me. He's all messed up. Then when I said he cried, he was like, "How do you know I wasn't lying?" and I was like, "Well, you're callling me a liar.....so you must not be one....right?" then he just never responded. He's a dumbass.But yeah, I know what you mean. Hilarious. lol.....no date.....Man, these people are such hypocrites #_#
  24. Yeah....sometimes, like, when there is a word that looks like it could be spelled either way, they put both in and stuff. I mean, it could be right and it could not be, and the best way to verify is to take a look at your real dictionary on your table top. However, too many people are too lazy so they just trust dictionary.comDictionary.com is really only good for words used everyday...that's why the whole common usage thing. It's almost like Urbandictionary.com, except a little more sophisticated...i suppose. It's still good....as it gets the point across.The thing on the atheist and anti-theist thing.....the prefix 'a' means 'without' so, 'without theism' basically. I dunno. I guess you're right.It's usually best to leave out definitions from dictionary.com because sometimes it could be wrong, and when you state that you got the definition from an Internet website, people laugh at you in debates....but when you say you got the definition from your oxford dictionary, people also laugh at you for taking the time to do that....I dunno. Dictionary.com just shouldn't be used as a reference for more serious things. But who cares right?
  25. heh. Becca, that's how it is with me. Girls like my stuff, but guys hate it.GGG, I thought it was actually pretty cool. The neck was messed up >_> like, just how it looks sorta cut off, but i guess it fits in with the whole er....texture? you were getting at. but I like the rest. The thing is, that when one person says something negative, the rest follow. Don't mind them. They may thing they're telling the truth, but they're just trying to get away from saying everything they see is good, so they pick on one person.It's what happens everywhere. Like, there was this one thread where this girl posted her picture. People at frist started being nice and saying she was cute, but then one person said, "omg you're ugly" or something, they all started saying it after. People are just waiting for negativity so they're not the only ones. Who cares about them though, right? As long as you like it, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. It's how you see things, not how they see them. Besides, they thought that it was supposed to be realistic, cause I guess it's the common thing. It's different, and that's what makes it cool.
