Probably, but still. It holds true today. Most of the females I know IRL would rather be in a relationship with a total douchebag, then bitch and whine and cry when said douchebag cheats/dumps/abuses them, then to be in a relationship with somebody who actually gives a shit about them beyond trying to fuck them...

My reaction when they bitch goes something along these lines: "Yeah, I'm sorry that happened to you, but it doesn't really surprise me. I could've told you it would happen..."

Thanks for the compliment. I've never really felt comfortable with my looks...especially pictures (must admit, the one for my flag is the best taken of me...), as I always somehow manage to look like shit...

Nobody's comfortable with their looks. Judging by the flag, you aren't ugly. You're actually kinda cute with the glasses and all. None of us are Jon Hamm, much as we'd like to be, but I would not equate your appearance with that of excrement.


Its just that I've never really gotten compliments on my looks IRL... I've gotten a few on here, but not in the real world...

Thanks, that makes me feel better. :)

That the ads for Pitschy have been put up.

That apparently people in 6th form have to start wearing ID badge things to stop people not in school coming in and talking to their friends.

Some look at Vulcan rounds and ask "Why?", others ask "Why Not?".
For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast,
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed;
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,
And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still!
