  1. the US does NOT own outer space!noone does!it really annoys me that the US thinks they can control the world and what other nations do!they think they are the best and should be the example of a perfect society, yet they have heaps of slums and are so controlling!someday I wouldnt be surprised if the US creates a world war three!A200
  2. I know what you mean about tag a longsI hate it when you are going somewhere and someone just wont let you go alone, they are determined to follow you wherever you go!like when we went to france, some of the other people from our school on the tour kept trying to go with us, and we basically had to dump them with people from their same grade to give us some peace (us as in my friends and I) so we could decide where we want to go at a certain venue without having someone else hanging on saying 'NOOOO I DONT WANNA GO THERE!' or 'WHY CANT WE GO THERRE???? I WANT AN ICECREAM!!!!!'.Really annoying!A200
  3. I dunno about UnionsThey are good for collective bargaining- aka the union and a whole heap of angry employees demand better conditions from the employer. and also for those who do not know the system at all, the unions can help you and advise you on if you are getting a good deal etc. at negotiations.but what I HATE HATE HATE is when they go beyond assisting the worker and go to the point where they are there to further their own political motives and try to control everything and call useless strikes to stuff up the country.yes I think unions are good at times, and industrial action is good when things are really bad and the employer is not giving in, but please, union thugs and heavies can be so intimidating and annoying at times.also I have found that once you join a union, they dont let you leave and then decide to charge you astronomical fees for all the help they gave you???A200
  4. i dont know if I hate the ALP or noti hate the way my parents try to brain wash me, but I also hate the ALP and some of their stupid policies, especially climate change.according to a political compass test I did last week, I should be voting for the greens.WTF?
  5. I can write a whole essay on what I hate.I hate spiders.Who the hell devised such a horrid animal? They are relentless and scare me to death. Why wont they leave me alone? WHY?I go into the shower, pull the shower curtain behind me, turn on the water, start putting shampoo in my hair and then turn around and there is a massive hairy hunstman spider on the shower curtain!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I screamed so loud it made my dog bark and go crazy. They scare me to death, I hate them, they freak me out.I cant even look at pictures of them! I was reading an information atlas at school the other day and I was reading an area on south america and I turned the page and there was a massive image of a tarantula! WTF! I dont wanna be reading my atlas and see creepy spiders! I hate the stupid publisher for putting such a vile image into my atlas!I hate it even more when idiots like to play on my fear and put fake spiders on my bed, in my locker etc. or send me an email titled 'Hey look at this', I load the email and they sent me images of spiders, big and small, all shapes and sizes. I almost fell out of my seat! I almost died! I just closed the browser and started getting all frantic that a spider is on me... I really hate them! :angry: GOD SAVE me if I ever go to south america where there are heaps of massive arachnids everywhere!They freak me out. I get scared. I cannot explain my irrational fear of spiders. I am not scared of some other common fears (snakes, clowns etc.) but spiders scare me.Is it because they are ugly? have massive legs? i do not know? maybe it is the way they run, or everything is in terms of 8?i find it interesting that I am not scared of daddy long legs (which technically aren't spiders) which are extremely poisonous, but they dont scare me at all.is it the hair? is it the big legs? why? WHY DO THEY SCARE ME SOOO MUCH???How can I get a cure? anyone?I could go on for hours on other hates of mine, but i'll end it here
  6. Well the US Election is tomorrow I think, and I bet Obama will win hands down.Palin is a dumb dumb embarrassment to the US, and I don't even live there!She is so dumb, I just can't contemplate some bimbo like her being the vice president of one of the greatest economic/political powers on earth!A200
  7. It seems the dominos are starting to fall- WA is no longer controlled by the ALP and they were considered a safe government!In 2009 I can assure you QLD's ALP will loose out to the LNP, who, to be honest, don't seem to be any better. But QLD just seems to be sick of Labors *BLEEP* and want someone new in.As for the other states... well NSW will probably fall in their elections in 2010/2011 I think, as they are ALP and the Rees government is failing abysmally (Iemma was no better).Interesting times ahead.
  8. HelloI have signed up for the MyCent new system, and I was wondering if my negative balance here is transferred?When I signed up, I was like 23 credits in the red! I made a good post and that dropped to 13 or so, and today, checking Xisto - Web Hosting, my negative credits have not been moved over so am I therefore on a new, fresh slate, or has the whole thing not worked (aka my forum account not linked to the Xisto - Web Hosting one?). I notice my balance is 700 mycents, is that from the big post I made or is that what they give everyone for switching over...?If you could answer my Q's, that would be greatly appreciated :PA200
  9. I think doctors are alright.When I had to go to the doctors when both my legs started swelling up, the first guy we went to did a few tests, checked my temperature, checked my ears and chest etc. for infection and apparently it was 'clear'. He just said to take this medicine and go home. So we went to the Pharmacy, bought the medicine and I took 2 of the tablets each day.It actually got worse. The next day my coughing got really bad to the point where I was vomiting, I had massive stomach cramps that made it really hard to go outside and I started getting a temperature. The swelling on my legs grew to my ankle and foot and intensified. So my mum booked a visit to the same doctors surgery, but made sure we visited a different doctor there just for good measure. Because I had been wearing long pants that day, once we got there we were shocked at how far it had spread, (from my foot, which was swollen, all the way up to my lower leg). She immediately took action and did a temperature check, and all the other tests, and said it was really bad and I need a blood test and an ultrascan on my leg. (this was about 5PM in the afternoon). We went to the closest blood centre (luckily just around the corner) and I had my blood test (first time I had ever had one) and then at 7PM we had my ultrasound check. We then went home and I started using the new prescription my doctor gave me.Was that it? No.Later that night I got a call from the doctor saying she had recieved the blood test results, and that I had an unusually high amount of white blood cells in my body- she recommended I go to the local emergency department ASAP! When my dad told me, I was really scared... going to a hospital!! Lets put the end of this very briefly-I went to the hospital, they wrote me down and said to wait in the waiting room- 2 hours later (10PM) someone came, then they checked my legs and got all the details and put me in another room while they put a drip into my left hand, and I was in that room for 5 hours as they needed a specialist doctor to see me and he was really busy. By 5AM the next day, they put my into a proper public ward and I had a brief sleep before the sun came up, and I spent the morning in the ward, having a tube in my left hand for the medicine being pumped in. They finally got a room in the private ward available, so in the afternoon I moved to the level above and it was heaven, so much better than the public ward where you share a room with like 4 other people, its especially bad if one of those people is constantly talking in a really annoying voice, making you feel very very on edge and wanting to get a knife and stab someone.I spent another night in hospital (in the private ward) and the next day I had my last course of medicine before they decided I was fit to go home (as my legs had swollen down considerably and I was feeling better) and they gave us a final prescription, and we went and got it and I took those tablets. (They were extremely small, which is good for swallowing. I needed to take 2 tablets, 3 times a day, for the next 4 days). Once the tablets were finished up, it said on the box as my prescription that I don't need any more. The swelling on my legs disappeared and all was well :)A200
  10. Polygamy is just wrong.Why should a man be allowed to have 3 wives? What does that show to the worth of each wife? Anyway, can you imagine how expensive it is to have multiple wives? That is three times amount of clothes, homes, cars and shopping to pay for!
  11. I try to protect myself by not downloading illegal files and the sort, only downloading files from secure and safe websites.It also helps for browsers to have a little message that comes up reminding people about them and how to avoid them etc.
  12. I have heard that in some countries, people with HIV/AIDS have put infected needles in the seats at cinemas, so when people sit down they get stabbed by the needle and contract the disease- is this true or not?A200

  14. Which is your favourite? Midtown Madness Midtown Madness 2 Midtown Madness 3 I love MM3 on XBOX, it is awesome. Such a shame they never made it for PC. If they did, I would get it in a heartbeat! MM3 is really good, I really like it. Good graphics, good cars, realistic and fun. MM and MM2 are good too- I have the trials on my computer, but I can't find my CDs for the full version and I can't find a site that has a reliable copy for download (shhhhh ) I love driving around cities in games and hitting cars and stuff, so much fun. What do other people think of these games?
  15. Microsoft overtake Google in a search engine war? Possible.Unlikely.Market share:Microsoft: 0Google: 100Honestly, I don't know anyone who uses anything other than google. Microsoft Live Search is really really bad, I never find what I am looking for and it is just easier to pop over to google and search it.I also like the fact with google it does maths for you (2 + 4.4) etc. and you can use 'Define:cats' and you get definitions.Plus the fact there is Google Earth and Google Chrome- its a wonder that Google haven't overtaken Microsoft already!A200
  16. HelloThanks for this post, +1 useful!I think it must also be remembered on air flights that when you are eating the food they give you, don't be loud and slurpy in your eating- it disturbs passengers.Also, please refrain from 'passing wind' or being loud and destructive, it really makes the experience for all a whole lot worse.A200
  17. Ok, so when I arrive in Paris I go to bed at 10PM Paris time, or do I go to bed early Brisbane time? Last night I went to bed at 9:30pm, so I could get enough sleep. Its 6:40AM and our plane leaves at 2:45PM. So when I arrive in Paris 'tomorrow morning' (6:55AM Paris time, 2:55PM Brisbane time (tomorrow) which is 'tomorrow afternoon' here, I go to bed early and tired so by monday I should be used to the time difference? Diet? I need to do a diet? Thanks, that post was useful! A200
  18. How do we know that out of space actually 'exists'?How do we know that the earth is not a bubble being used as a scientific experiement by a greater and more powerful species, being shown to millions of their species around their world to provide hope and happiness (aka the truman show)?For all we know, when we 'leave' the world, we just enter in another chamber outside the set of planet 'earth' and just stay in one spot, with everything else coming closer in an optical illusion, and the earth going away in an optical illusion too?But what could we find in outer space? Could we discover another developed world like our own, with people inhabiting it, but thousands of light years away?Who knowsA200
  19. Meh I am not having sex at the moment but I am banging my stick if you know what I mean :DOk ok jks jks This thread is really seedy. I hope noone goes into any great detail (no photos please).
  20. Hello all On Saturday afternoon I am heading off from Brisbane airport (GMT 10) to Singapore (GMT 8) in order to get to Paris (currently GMT 2). We leave Brisbane at 2:25PM, arrive Singapore at 8:30PM (or around that, in GMT 8) and then leave Singapore at 11PM to arrive in Paris at 6:40AM (GMT 2). When we arrive in Paris it will be the equivalent of 2PM Australia time. Now I imagine that first day will be pretty horrible as the first thing we do is go up the Eiffel Tower, and then spend the day actually going around doing things. I imagine after the 2nd day there or so I should be used to the local time, hopefully. Apparently going east-west is better than going west-east?But coming back apparently will be horrible- leave Paris at 10PM, arrive Singapore 6 or 7PM and leave Singapore at 11PM to arrive in Brisbane at 9:30AM, I cant remember the exact times so these are estimates.However the day we arrive back home is the last day of holidays, as the next day we have school. Will I be able to stay awake to go to school, as I assume I will be used to Paris time? I have never been to a timezone that drastically different so I am scared of the effects. When I come home should I go straight to bed, or stay awake until the normal bedtime of Brisbane? Any tips or help needed to combat this experience is wanted :)ThanksA200
  21. Can you guys please read through my modern history speech and tell me what you think? It is meant to go for between 5 - 8 mins but mine goes for 9 mins, the teacher said he doesnt mind if we go over just dont blabble so I haven't blabbled ------------------------ HYPOTHESIS: FDR and Stalin were effective in the introduction of their economic policies, however each attained major disadvantages that counteracted the positives. ------------------------ Thanks a million! I am presenting today, some people went yesterday and went for like 13mins and got an A so being a bit over shouldnt be too bad A200
  22. December 12, 2012.4:44AM.A North Korean plane heads over Washington, completely invisible due to new technological advances at the time. As it reaches 5AM, a bomb is dropped from the plane and lands square onto the White House.BANG BANG BANGA whole chunk of the USA is gone.7AM. A plane appears over New York, and in an instant, another couple of million people are dead, the same happens in Chicago and Los Angeles.The USA gather their bombs up and send planes over North Korea, thinking mistakenly that it was the Koreans. As the USA planes get close, NK realises and sends out a whole army of planes to destroy the bombers. NK wins and the bombers are destroyed. The USA is screwed.NK then send a whole big bang of planes over to USA and bomb whats left. By now, all 330 million residents are dead- the USA is now a nuclear wasteland.NK and China fight over who will be the big world power. China bombs NK and NK is wiped out.Meanwhile, the rest of the world takes notice and gets concerned. The UN launch an emergency meeting in Zurich, Switzerland, and most of the world unites against China.Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Argentina, France, Canada, Mexico, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Romania, United Kingdom, Singapore, Indonesia, Japan, Mongolia and South Africa. They call it the ANBAFCMFGSIRUSIJMS league.However, China gains an allegiance with India, Vietnam, Phillipines, Russia, Iran and Saudi Arabia all team up. They decide to bomb out Europe, to kill off half of the ANBAFCMFGSIRUSIJMS league. South Africa is completely obliberated, France and Germany fall, UK goes, Switzerland bombed out, Singapore is also attacked and defeated. Canada try to save Australia but are knocked out.Which leaves Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Indonesia, Japan and Mongolia. Mongolia, Indonesia, Mexico, Argentina and Brazil all leave the league, leaving OZ and NZ against a massive army.Blah blah blah I am getting bored, OZ and NZ are knocked away, and the rest just bash each other up until they're dead.The people of New Caledonia wake up on a nice summer morning and are completely oblivious to the fact the rest of the world doesn't exist. They live in peace and life a long life.End of story.A200
  23. Why don't you live with your family, they are there to support you in times of need and I am sure you will always be welcomed back home! My sister is like 22 and she still lives at home, but does that matter?How did you end up alone in an apartment with nothing anyway? Who pays the rent? Do you live with anyone?A200
