That somehow I've managed to lose my maths textbook, so I'm having to do all the homework from a disk version of the textbook. :grumpy:

My math course has no textbook :D!

What grinds my gears? The school blocked easybib, under the categorization of games... :banghead:
 
The snow Grinds my Gears....I can't work in this hellish white slush, and it's draining my wallet fast :grumpy:

At least that's what I thought untill I saw 2 window cleaners working today.... I think they're mad, I mean, you only fall off once right?

But then I felt guilty for not working :(

Mind you, one of my customers whose sons are both window cleaners in other countys said that they haven't worked in days. He also said they would be crazy risking their (There, they're, their?) necks up a ladder.

Pfff I dunno.

Only one word for them. Demented. (It's their by the way)
 
On GT5 you take 3 photos, and one is best, but on photobucket you can't tell which one.
 
Photobucket's crap. Use Flickr, much better...
I agree, Flickr is the best site for uploading and sharing photos.
What Grinds my Gears right now is forgetting my coat this morning when I cycled to school. It was OK getting there but coming back I was frozen. :grumpy:
 
Now I can't o to 🤬 work so now I'm gonna be sitting at home doing nothing. My dad always says he was working at the garage when he was my age yet most times I wanna go nobody'll give me a ride over mainly because my mom has to watch some stupid TV shows and my dad's to busy. My stupid 🤬 brother is frying a ride somewhere and he's gonna almost certainly smoke pot and she probably knows it yet I can't go to work.

What I've just done! I acted before thinking! I tried to copy something for fun to see how the printer copied things but I did it wrong and something else came out so I ripped it up and threw it away. Only it looked important and original, as if it had been put in there to be copied but it came out where what I copied should have come out. Oh jeez. Now I'm going to be paranoid that I just ripped up something my parents needed!

Also, I found out my mom smoked while she was pregnant with me.
 
What grinds my gears? Airlines grind my gears.

I had been lured in by an airline that claimed it would let me take my guitar onboard. I paid extra to go with this airline and also sacrificed nigh on 10kilos baggage to go with them too.

Now I read the small print that was tucked away and despite saying I can bring a guitar onboard, it seems that the rules were written for a guitar no larger than a steinberger.

Gotta hate the small print... It's amazing how many rip-offs they manage to cram into such small text.

The smoking bit REALLY sucks

Yup. So it looks like I'll be taking a rucksack as carry on. What's infuriating is that I can take a golf back on no problem... That's bigger than my guitar case. I have a good mind to stuff my guitar case inside a golf bag.

If the shoe case fits, wear use it. I say go for it.

Actually, I've had a better idea. I've heard that airlines are more sympathetic if you take a guitar in a soft gig bag. So I think I'll check if I can find a gig back that will fit the guitar case inside. 💡

If the person behind the desk asks, I'll act as if I take my guitar all the time and tell them it will be destroyed if it's checked. Obviously the guys at security are going to realize what I've done. But if they ask any questions, I'll just say that I find it hard to carry with my arms but want the protection of a hard case.

I looked up the effects and so far I've had no effect. But I'm also only 14, I have a lot of time ahead to developed cancer and diseases. Apparently I'm 20-70% more likely to have heart disease and diabetes, and I'm overweight. So... Ya.

When new members of the community feel it's necessary to drag up old threads that have been laid to rest of died off and then comment on them after the debate/ topic is over!!!

You'll be fine. Look at the lifestyle of people around you - a lot of people from first world countries abuse their bodies to the extreme and still somehow manage to survive.

If it really concerns you, do something about it.

Well there's not really anything I can do, except exercise and eat better. I exercise daily and I'm working on eating better.

Start working out. I used to lift everyday. I am now just conditioning but I need to get back into weight lifting. Makes me a better driver :)

What is tree'd? I've seen it and looked it up but have had no clear answer.

Site link please?
 
I have an awful feeling that I'll just be alone for most of my life. I want to make more friends, and become connected & close to them. I want to have more fun towards a course of people. But, it never works. I don't understand why.. Maybe I'm just not a talkative person? Maybe I'm just not normal to their social pool? This was a problem ever since I walked into preschool. And it still is.. I cry my heart out by the thought (not now, however). And suicide crossed my mind several times. I'd never even had one person who stuck with me for a long time, in the exception of my Sis. Every one of them left me like I was an insect, and never to be seen again. A couple did helped me out in hardships, but they just fainted away, to much nicer and generally more comical persons. And even though there is something I should have done, there was just nothing. I was helpless. But what kept my head up was my own imagination, my own surreal thoughts & implications. I pretend someone was there, and soon have the most joy I'd ever experienced. I wished countless times that they are actually there, and I tear up as a result. But I always seemed to like it, although more likable if a living being was there with me. On the other hand, I do lose it and just cry out, but I recover afterwards.

Fortunately I do talk to lots of people at school. And I have a great time with them. Just not, in a "pinky-promise" kind of way.
