Hi, all. I'm not sure if I'm on everyone's ignore list, or just don't stick around long enough to read the replies. :)

I'm beginning to wonder if there's a mathematical equation to explain how this thread grows faster than it can be read. When I started it was 40 pages. I take it I'm reading it wrong.

I like being relatively light, although it would help if I weren't so skinny but I stayed the same weight. I'm not as bone-thin as I was as a young child, though. :p

That's usually what I'll do with the thread titles; if it doesn't sound like something worth participating in I'll just ignore it and keep looking.

Tends to be the best thing to do during a threat. Usually if somebody intends to go through with the promised threat, they want to kill as many as possible. Telling the students to stay home rather than all come to school to be in a large gathering is a safety measure that is smiled upon.

Except active shooters tend not to let the school know they're coming to shoot up the school, they silently wait until the school is packed with people and then go in.

Threats made ahead of time are typically bomb threats, as my school faced lockdown a few times for prank bomb threats.

I like to keep a tight control on how long my posts are, and make them as short as possible. I omit, or leave out, any redundancies. A redundancy, by the way, is when you state or describe something using more words than need to be used. I don't like redundancies.

Did I tell you how I like to keep my posts succinct? :p
