@Technicolors, go for it. You will be sorely missing out on this beetle if you don't get it.

My gear grinder? Energy drinks, man. I drank one thinking it will have no effect like it usually does. Now my whole body's tired but my head isn't :ouch:

Probably so most people can use them without asking for help. A lot of people still run XP because it's been around for a long time. Having to teach the kids how to use 7 would be too much work.

We just went to 7 and Office 2010and it's fine. Everyone understands it, except for the real technophobes of course.
 
Aargh, all my body hurts. Perhaps because I was playing badminton yesterday and just this morning my body feels like - stiff and painful. I did warm up my body though yesterday. It will be worse because I'll on for a long journey today and it's not making it any better..
 
But the thing is, you didn't warm down after the game. Warming up prevents injuries, but warming down prevents the muscles from being filled with lactic acid. This causes them to go stiff.
 
I sleept so badly last night. I thought that the thin bed sheet under my blanket was the actual blanket and I've been freezing my 🤬 off all night and waking up. My neck is stiff to, I think I fell asleep on it wrong.
 
My friend that I carpool with for school now has class at 8 AM on Fridays. Thus, I have to be here for 8 as well. I'm still half-asleep. Being on campus so early grinds my gears as I am not a morning person. :grumpy: But, I have no choice in the matter. At least the line at Tim Horton's is non-existent at this hour....
 
Today I accidentally put my left shoe on before my right...

From that moment on, I knew it would be a catastrophe...

It was really tough.. I kept wanting to walk all funny... and sometimes Id press the wrong pedal while driving my car... Being Friday the 13th and All I wasnt sure if I'd make it through, but somehow.. I dunno... just figured it out I guess...
Soo happy!! XD!!

Fixed that for you. :sly: I mean, if you can use XP, then it should take you about 3 seconds to figure out how to use it....
 
Did you know that the school computers we have came with windows 7, but the tech department uninstalled it and put XP on them. Why?????

If they use a network client (like Novell), the version of the client they have likely runs best and is designed for XP. At our school, with the sheer number of programs that are used using 7 would be impossible without the newest most advanced computers.

It did for me. It's just some people are idiots, as you said. Also, in Office 2010, all the menus have changed position. It's fine for me, as I have common sense, but you get a few who get confused by a slightly different menu.

When you claim that honey is Bee crap and get an answer wrong in school :grumpy:

No, it's yellow! Therefore, it's bee pee! :dunce:

But seriously, what would compel you to claim that? You should've known it was going to be wrong... Were you being sarcastic on purpose?

I did but my stupid French teacher always overruns forcing me to scribble down 'French: Homework' in my diary and then try and catch my bus...

Isn't there another bus? Im usually good at writing down homework, and it helps that the teachers always remind us to write it down when they set it.
My Gear Grinder, being ignored. I hate it...

It's a school bus so there's only one. And there's one public bus a week which doesn't even go through my village.

Doesn't the school bus leave a bit later? Ours leave 1 hour after school ends, enables people to do after school activities.

Being fat... I work out and I don't eat like crazy... Makes no sense.
I'm pretty "rounded" (as I like to call myself :lol:) and I used to worry about it, being at a sporty school and with loads of kids with 6 packs etc., but now I've come to accept I am who I am and I don't care anymore.

But it's extremely detrimental to my life and can shorten it.
 
My stupid internet connection. Was half way through a race in the Swift series and got disconnected.

Yeah but unless you're really fat then it's fine surely?

Upwards of 200 lb. Hopefully less than 250. I bet I'm about
215... Anyways, it sucks being one of the few fat people at my school, and that's odd being that I am in America.
