It depends on how it happens. If it's an out of nowhere accident sort of thing, I wouldn't laugh. However, if it's like my friends and I are doing something stupid with rollerblading or skateboarding, snowboarding or something like that...yeah, I will laugh at first if it doesn't seem so serious because we don't really -have- to put ourselves in the danger in the first place so it's funny that it turns out that way. It also depends how bad the wound is of course. To be fair in all this...I laugh at myself when I get funked up too and I don't care if others laugh either. In some ways it can help me recover quicker. If someone has a broken limb or sprain etc, it is serious and of course I would help him/her to get where he/she needs to go etc. I've broken bones, had tendinitis, sprains etc. It's part of life and some people milk it for all it's worth after it's treated, taking it so serious. I take it light when it happens to me and don't focus on it after the fact it's casted or whatever. I don't try to tease or laugh at anyone that takes the injuries so dire though because they are too serious about it and just not willing to make light of a situation that's going away and well if humor isn't shared it's kind of pathetic and cruel. That's the point with most broken bones etc. They get better. If it was something more serious like someone has heart disease or cancer or something, I'm not going to laugh at all.
If it is part of another thread, go ahead and continue talking in that thread if it has to do with the voice acting stuff. I am going to close this one as it is not needed. If you want it instead moved to the Spam Zone, send me a PM and I'll reopen it and send it there.
Did you give her the note? Or just try talking to her? Either way, she seems to be very anxious and needs to calm down. If you do have to head out to a friend's do that, but you might also want to tell her that you are there for her when she wants you to be. She seems like she's going through a lot. I take it by what you said, you don't know exactly what is her problem. Stand strong though and keep us informed if you can.
Weird. Well I hope it all goes good for you. Pretty cool to find a sister even if it is such weird circumstances.
Why did she come forward now? Did she know your dad well or anything? Hope things work out for ya. If she's cool then you have a kick butt sibling at least. Is your dad in the dawg house now?
Pick a time when she is definitely home and will get it. Either wait until she starts yelling at you and just put it down and say 'read it' and head out of the house for a bit or do it at a calm time when emotionally she doesn't seem stressed and you can then stick around or go for a walk. Either or works. Just make sure you don't just leave it laying around somewhere that she can't find it and know when you lay it out that she should read it sooner or later so then you are prepared for her reaction.
Oh just how bizarre was that? Very funny.
Toss out the nasty veggies...hell yeah! Those things suck.
lol, that was great. :)
Repliku Xuklirep - sounds almost Egyptian.
Tyra Banks also tries to say she's got back. She's not really someone to listen to for advice heh. She's a super model that tries to act like a common woman which well, just isn't happening. Also, I know plenty of girls that talk every bit as dirty around each other as men do. Some of the girls talk dirty with the men and have some interesting fantasies. Perverted minds are on both sides of the fence. Just men happen to be more likely to go be stupid and carry out their thoughts, though don't think some women won't either. Men have porn while women have romance novels and smut books. Smut books really aren't much better than porn. I read one and was like *blink*. Any way, sexual perversion really depends on the individual, whether male or female. I would not listen to Tyra Banks on what real life is. She has not lived it.
Basically, write a letter if you want to go that approach and say in it the positives and negatives. Let her know that you are upset with her that she yells at you all the time and you just cannot talk to her at all when she's like that. Explain you care and want things to get better but they never will as long as she keeps mistreating you and that you are mature enough to handle talking to her calmly to resolve things and want to make the family scenario work but she has to also be willing to. Express your feelings on how you feel when she does scold you and scream at you and that you just can't say anything back because it's extremely hard to talk to anyone who is very angry. Make it a letter that shows that you are willing to work with her but only if she will tone down her anger and talk to you civilly. That's basically what I mean. Show that there is some kind of positive that can come out of it such as you both getting along much better with each other and helping each other out and well, doing things as a family would. But at the same time let her know the current relationship is just not working out and it is really getting you very upset and angry yourself. Does that help to explain it more? It's a matter of being in depth with both a future of wanting to work together and yet addressing the heart of the matter which is things can't go on as they are.
Really. He could just get some porn and take care of his fantasies. Why he has to go and try to manipulate some girl...sick.
No problem. It's not a bad question. It just belongs more here as it doesn't have an effect on the game and is a fun thing to think of. As for who I'd kiss... Aqua. She's hot. Secondly, Larxene... though I'd want my lips back afterwards someday.
jettie, don't run away. Your mom is someone who has anxiety and yells and screams a lot over small stuff. She's stressed but she needs to learn. She's not really abusing you other than verbally and frustrating you. It's not a life or death scenario like I thought I was in when I was 13 because my mom was a freaking psycho. I even 'trained' her in the end because well, after a certain point she couldn't even hurt me anymore physically. The thing I'd suggest you do instead is try to stand up for yourself some more. You say you keep a lot inside of you. I have a couple suggestions for you to try perhaps but I really do think you should -confront- her on the issues if all she does is throw tantrums where she says stupid things and maybe tries to hit you now and then. One is that you tell her straight out something to the affect of "Mom, we need to talk. I am tired of being hurt and you probably are too. I want a better relation with you and I want to stop feeling like dirt because of the stuff you say and do. You've gone too far and I don't need the stress. I'd help you but you've got to back off me more so we can work as a family." Saying something like this may make her mad and fuming but you can also tell her if she refuses to talk and just starts screaming "Talk to me when you can do so in a calmer voice and actually want to listen to my side for a change" and walk away. Sometimes to stop the cycle of stupid abuse the kid does have to take charge and show some maturity. If you cannot do that because you really do not like confrontation... I suggest this. Write a note to her explaining your feelings that you have about her scolding, chastising and belittling you. Tell her in the letter the things you'd want to say to her if you were standing in a room with her in a controlled environment where she couldn't hit you and you know some force would be keeping her quiet. Also, tell her you love her and want to resolve things but you cannot deal with things as they are and both of you need to change and have better communication. Save the letter for the next time she yells at you and really hurts you. Then take it out, drop it or put it on the table where she can see it and say Read the letter, I'll be back to talk'. Take a walk around the block, go spend a couple hours away from the house if you need to. Go do something to try to relax. If you stay around the house tell her you won't talk to her until she's read the letter. Sometimes you do need to take a stand and let the parent know he/she is going too far and if it can be fixed without running off, it's worth a shot so you've tried all angles before taking the big step to saying 'farewell to this crap'. You are right in that running away is an eye opener, but it also causes you more pain than it can be worth. Running away should be the last option and if you are willing to go through with such an act, why not try the lesser thing first which is to fix the family problems at home? I'd suggest doing one of these acts before you decide to pack up and say toodles so that you know if things can be worked out at all. Maybe someone else has some other ideas they've used. Just, you may have to confront some issues before they are going to get better. Running away is the option when all other avenues fail and if you have to go then, at least you know you did everything in your power to make her listen first so you gave her a chance and you a chance. In life we just have to sometimes take a stand and if that doesn't work, yeah, we gotta move on.
If he's drunk when you talk to him...drinking is no excuse. He can understand you even then. I'd also slip it to him that alcohol is a depressant and so all of his problems are only amplified because he's being an idiot and drinking to try to get rid of them. That has never worked for anyone. Drinking isn't bad for someone who isn't down on their luck emoing constantly. It is bad for those who use it as a way of 'coping'. He's wasting your time and hurting himself willingly. I hope you can break the chains here and don't let him guilt you. He's doing this to himself and you don't have to go down with him. Maybe what you do will make him see that he has to value others more and stop being so selfish, because really, that's all this is.
I understand. Basically though if people are not willing to listen to you if you tell them in seriousness that you are not a lesbian, they have basically called you a liar, which isn't very nice. The teen years are years of exploration and figuring out how you do feel and what you are attracted to. If they don't get that, put it on them and just be honest with yourself. Sooner or later those other people will stop saying what they are and you know who you are so don't let them bring you down. Peers can be amusing people sometimes. I'd say that he can still be a great guy even if he doesn't like imagining himself with a bisexual person. It doesn't mean he hates bisexuality. It means he doesn't want to go out with someone who is and he has the right to choose what he is attracted to or repulsed by as assuredly as any bisexual person has the choice. If we were all the same well...we wouldn't have so many problems with dating etc would we? At any rate, shadow of sephiroth, I hope things are going alright for you since we haven't heard yet if the advice helped or not. Good luck!

Ah, cool deal then. *nomnom*
Oh man, that was so funny that he got caught and asked wtf he was planning. I could only hope more losers like that get arrested.
