Only if it's shopping at A&F and eating out at a place that sells vegan dishes and non fat non hydroginated all natural fruit smoothies.

I was thinking more along the lines of walmart, burger king, and then smoking cigarettes on a overpass until we get bored and call someone to come give us a ride home.

SCORE. Deal.

Cool. What are the functions then? I'm very interested to learn. Please note that I intend to convey no sarcasm. The amount of English language material available is limited, and what is available is usually either poorly translated or lacking in precision. So please offer your insight.

Everything is trying to drive me insane. This thread has increased my insanity factor. I'm losing my mind. It's Strnnnnnnnng's fault.

Brilliant!

You never know what you will find following random links here.

[hate to bump you like this but...]

lol I had forgotten about this thread

[Pookie]

Its kind of like reading old philosphers.

Like, I read "I think therefore I am", and it's so simple and practically stupid at this time in society that it's funny. It's surprising that was a breakthrough moment in the world at the time.

But sometimes you find old threads, and you read what people say in them and it's just kind of the same thing. Like, is this what the issue was back then?

But nonetheless, Oracle is wrong . The elements are every single one of those things, it's just those things aren't exclusive to those elements.

Heh, but I can say many aspects of this describe me quite well, even if it isn't the definition of Ti.

Dude, you shattered the only thing that was keeping me going. I don't have an excuse anymore. How many more are going to suffer because you needed to increase your post count? Are you really happy now?
