Probably any country that's not old enough to have its origins Shrouded in Myth has had something interesting happen around the time it was formed.

I'm tempted to unfriend my dad on Facebook.

I don't want him to know what I say there...

All of the adults, really.

Maybe that wouldn't be a bad idea.

I've found that for a while now all of my biggest statements have been on Tumblr, where I don't have any baggage like "family" or "people I went to church with".

She slapped me. (Hard enough to completely knock me unconscious, going from what my cousin said.)

And the reason is childish (IMO)…

Shane's response was a dull "oh"…

Is it smarter to pick a job by its location, or a location by the job you can get there?

Konkfan 7: Why did she slap you?
She was very furious; I have no idea why.

My cousin says it's because one of my sister's favorite trope pages had its namespace changed and all examples removed, though? (It just confuses me even more, to be honest.)

Regardless, she has no right to slap you out of the blue.

re:removing dad from facebook

For pesky relatives / IRL people who you don't want butting in on all of your stuff, like internet, it's best to have a seperate account to add/friend them with.

You can also set up a group of your friends that isn't the people you don't want to see certain stuff and set your default privacy to show to that group. It's not perfect, and you can't set a standing blacklist, but it's a start.

Looking through example resumes...

These managerial candidates? It's like "You're already a boss. Do you really need to boss around more people?

I had this random thought recently. The saltwater crocodile is the largest living carnivorous reptile in the world, as well as the largest living reptile in general. It got me wondering: what's the largest living herbivorous reptile?

I like to keep my audience riveted.

… seventy-five members. For a forum that's two years and about three months old, that's a lot, right?

why would she slap you for that? it's not like you had any relation to that
I suspect it might be because she thinks I was involved in that decision (which I wasn't); if it wasn't for Shane being unable to access TV Tropes (or his computer not being able to open Chrome or Internet Explorer anymore due to computer memory-related issues) she might've slapped him as well.

Regardless, she has no right to slap you out of the blue.
True; we already spent a long time not getting along and only sometime last year did we start getting along.

Us not getting along in the past was because of burn scars on her left hand and leg; it was 16 November 1999, when I was about three years of age. There was a blackout, it was around 8 PM, I ran around in the house (despite being told not to), knocked a table over, there was candles on the table, and Michelle got burnt on her sixth birthday.

I don't remember it, though that's what she said when someone at Shane's forums asked, so…

She basically hated me since that day 'til sometime last year. (An awfully long time…)

I really don't want to go through something like that again…

Siblings fight. It's a basic point of life. For example, my older bro's broken my wrist, twice, though he didn't mean to.

Granted, some ladies I know can hold a grudge.

Here's hoping things sort out on your end!

Bought that new Rick Riordan book yesterday, part of The Trials of Apollo series. I would be lying if I said part of the reason I was so excited wasn't because I heard Nico and Will are like an official confirmed thing in this one... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Some online gamers have no manners.

I join a high-level quest and somebody says, "You came to the wrong one. The boss is really hard. You should retire now."

And then a few seconds later, "Um...bye?"

Um, if you don't think we can win, why don't you retire? ;/

Finally decided that Kunal, Admah and Rahi will be the names of my main characters. That took a ridiculously time to figure out...can't do without my Meaningful Names, though.

I sat on a folding table and fell down flat on my ass, which was an accident, but when i turned to tell people I was chipper and fine, I heard people laughing.

I told myself I shouldn't care about what some fucking high school kids think of me, but I just... I couldn't handle it.

Luckily three other girls backed me up in the bathroom and helped me wipe up and cool down.

Life is hard, that's why no one survives.
