  1. I live in the North west of England, in a county called Cheshire, in a town called Runcorn.We had a surprisingly cold summer this year (still sunny though), and although it's supposed to be Autumn (or fall) it's still really cold. If it wasn't for the leaves still being on the trees, everybody would think it was winter.
  2. I wouldn't say I was a Xisto addict, it takes quite alot to get me addicted to forums (even when they are for the musicians I listen to, I don't usually get latched onto posting). Although I don't consider myself an addict, I do try to post frequently, for my website's sake. The thing I do most often? I'm unsure as to exactly what, but I'm more likely to be found sifting for topics to reply to, rather than chatting in the shout box. If you had to rate some sense of addiction I have for this forum, I'd say about 15-20%, on most days. It's a bit higher today, you see.
  3. Some people wouldn't mind, aslong as there's some sort of pay check, I guess.
  4. ooh! It looks pretty interesting actually, I will probably go to see it when it's released...
  5. http://www.nbcnews.com/id/21386988/ Even if the guy wasn't drunk, it's pretty clear that dragging your nine-year-old daughter on a sled attached to your pick-up truck while you're drunk is an incredibly dumb idea. He obviously wouldn't have intended to kill his daughter though, but isn't being reckless enough intent in the eye of the law?
  6. That is really quite true, atleast from what I have seen. Erm...I'd much rather go with a guy who is "fat" than an anorexic one. Or an "ugly" guy rather than a "pretty" one. The problem with some attractive guys (and girls) is that if you let them know it, it can go straight to their head. But with that said, if someone is told that they're fat, it goes straight to their head aswell, but their heads deflate rather than inflate - as would some one's head do if they were told they were attractive - metaphorically speaking, of course.
  7. This can't be serious, can it? Oh, as I forgot: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7043056.stm
  8. BBC Independent Notice from truefusion: When quoting articles, do give your opinion on the matter.
  9. Yes, I agree. If she had really been cutting herself, she wouldn't go around bragging about it. I know of this, as another friend of mine had cuts on her arms, that I saw accidentally. When asked about it, she hid her arms and didn't say a word. Rather than the friend i mentioned in my first post who practically brags at every chance she can get. Ignoring her has actually made her cool down with her antics. She is almost back to normal, just sometimes starts with a bit of overreacting, but that dies down pretty easily. I haven't spoke to her for a few days, but it seems like (from seeing her talk to other people) she has stopped it. I'm worried though, if she would just start it again soon, maybe when I start talking to her again? She's not going to do the show if she has no audience, so to speak.
  10. Is my friend attention seeking, or does she just have some serious issues? She used to be a really close friend of mine. We'd only hang out at school and sometimes afterwards, but still quite close. Only it seems like she can think of some great big lies. Such as once, she claimed her mother had hit her for no apparent reason, and this was why she ran away from home one evening, in Spring this year. After hearing this story and talking to my friend about it for a few days afterwards, it turned out to be that my friend was giving "her mother cheek", so her mother threw a scrunchy bobble (hair bobbles made out of light material, non metal) at her just before she decided to "run away". After a week or so, she "ran away" again, probably because in her mind, her mother wasn't treating her very well. She keeps "running away" until the police find her wandering the streets of our town late one evening, and warn her that if she runs away again she'd get sent to some juvenile detention centre. I write run away in quotation marks, simply because she only walks around the streets or hangs out at friends' houses for four or five hours and then returns home again. Not actually leaving home and living elsewhere. My once friend also likes to storm out of class after small arguments, slamming the classroom doors and screaming before rushing away. All the things I have mentioned above were from some months ago, now she differs her tactics to more extreme ones. Just last week, she was bent on suicide by starving herself. She resided to starvation after five or six claims of attempted suicide via a bottle of pills only to be caught by the unsuspecting mother or younger brother. Somehow she doesn't realize that starvation would take quite a while. Every day she would ask how pale she looked, and when I or one of my friends would say that she was starting to look pale, her face would brighten up for a moment, then the happiness simply disappears. Just today, she was sat behind me in my French class, scratching the underside of her arms. When asked my one of my friends why she was doing that, she replied "making another scratch". I commented on this, telling her to stop it and stop being stupid, only to be snapped back at straight away. At least she stopped the scratching. Is that self harm, even if she doesn't even make a proper mark on herself? I stopped being friends with her after her rude behaviour (snapping, constantly insulting, sarcastic tones), even though she could probably do with a few friends. She blames all these antics on her mother. Her mother doesn't treat her nicely (not letting her on the computer, is what she says). Her mother won't let her have everything she wants. Maybe this is all very bias of me, and she really needs some real help. I don't know.
  11. I'm not religious, I have no religion at all, yet I believe in this to some extent. So in that way, religion doesn't have to do with PA... Good point. If it was to do with religion, it would not be called Paranormal Activity, but "miracles".
  12. That is a good point actually. And why are a few people just focusing on the bad points? stop being so negative, and just enjoy "the best years of your life" (as it is said)
  13. I think that's quite funny...how long did it take? 10 seconds? Welcome to the board! I will try to help you out... Marmar? Is that spelt phonetically? If it is then: She's like no one you've ever seen I didn't think I'd charm her But I've been living like a dream All this time, I've been in love with Marmar I could probably think of something alot better...but how is that?
  14. Seven Strings? That's pretty awesome. My sister plays bass, but at the moment, she can only play 4 or 5 strings. I myself am a musician, also. I play guitar, like so many people on here and alot i know offline do. I play mainly electric rather than acoustic (I do not really like the sound of acoustic guitars). I own a "fake" Les Paul, which cost me Ł129, two years ago. I get lessons for free at my school, but I don't know what grade I'm at - I haven't been taught through grades until now (learning a Grade 5 piece for my GCSEs) I do like to sing aswell, although I haven't had a single lesson of tuition on it, I plan to sing in my band some day. Another way that I'm a musician is through writing lyrics, music and sometimes complete songs.
  15. If God lost this case, who exactly would pay the winner? Saying God is real, would he reach down from heaven with a pot of gold? Or would some form of the church have to pay for it? I don't think it would ever reach court, basically because it is an absolutely ridiculous case, and like said before, just a publicity stunt.
