What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

He was hoping for some action is what I gathered and realized that it was not a good idea.

So he starts to date a so called 'Whore' to get laid? I don't believe it works that way. When it comes to whores where I am from, it is usually just get down to business and leave. When did dating get involved in Whoring? Kids these days just complicate everything.

Smile: Almost finished with the charity auction announcement. The announcement will be brief and somewhat of a rip off of what Dish has done in the past, but getting this thing started puts a smile on my face. This has already become a second job for me, and we all need to tip our collective hat to Dish and the other mods in the past who have helped my the auction a success. A lot of man hours go into this and I'm thankful that the auction will go on.

Bonus smile: A few friends have already donated five bucks here, five bucks there. Not much, but every penny helps.

Ticked: Raking leaves in my yard is as pointless as shoveling the snow off a sidewalk in Chicago. You work for a few hours only to find the same issue the next day.

I mulch the leaves by running the lawnmower over it and put it back into the grass.

Fourteen. The people I was with was 15 or 16.

So you're in 8th grade?

My mower is a mulcher, but there are way too many leaves to go that route for my backyard. I'm actually taking a quick break from raking, as after an hour of it, I'm not even a quarter of the way done.

If megas is 14, he should be a freshman in high school no? And although he's wet behind the ears he should know better than to allow any guy to push a girl, and that calling any girl a slut is super bad form.

Confederate flag isn't necessarily a racist symbol, I end up seeing it used as a "Southern Pride" kinda thing. A lot of racists do seem to love taking it up as a symbol though. I don't see a lot of confederate flags in Texas, but I think that's because most people here end up just displaying the Texas flag instead when they want to show some regional pride.

Is there any regional pride going on besides Texas and Deep South? I've never seen any other state flags being shown in American movies and TV shows. If a movie or TV show is based in Texas you're almost sure to encounter as much Texan flags as you'll see plain American flags (or more), but you wont see the Washington state flag in Twin Peaks or Frasier and so on.

I've lived in Texas my whole life, so the whole regional pride thing is a pretty natural thing to me. Closest thing to that sort of pride outside of the south I think might be New York (especially NYC) or perhaps California? They might not be flying their state flags around, but there seems to certainly be a lot of pride.

Haha! Maybe the 90's were just different but your life as a 14 year old is VERY different from what mine was. I think mine was more fun.

Heck even my 14 was more fun than his, and that was only five years ago. As time goes on more and more emphasis is put on having relationships at younger and younger ages. Having a girlfriend when I was 14 wasn't even a remote though in my mind at that age, I just wanted to game.

I miss working at a middle school.

My middle school was filled with shitheads.
