After years of nagging, I finally found the willpower to clean out my entire room. Then came the wardrobe, where I eventually encountered a Redback Spider. FML.
On the plus side: I got rid of stuff, found my Gameboy Color and several of long lost games, finally got room to put out more of my figures that never quite made it (I still gotta buy more glass cases)...

 Well done. and yes, this forum is starting to go on life support. :S EDIT: Also rumors are starting to fly about the fate of Kilik in the events of the timeskip. Some believe he might even be dead. Keep in mind it's only a rumor, and it may be over blown like the fate of Sophitia and the origins of Viola. |

Hahah... I just basically did the same thing. I found my cousins Non-Colour Gameboy and Super Mario Land (seriously have no idea how the hell it got there) and a bunch or random stuff I had no idea I owned. Like a Gundam kit. And Wrigleys gum. I was buried in an avalanche of clothes tho. Not a good experience... |

Howdy guys, been a while blah blah blah.
Anyway, I was at the driving range today with a mate and as we were playing a father and his young son started to play behind us. The kids like 9-11 years of age and is getting abused by his father about his golfing skills and how he can't hit the ball 200 yards. I'm not a prominent golfer but I can barely make 200 as it is. I need to be having a really good day and all my factors need to be in the right place.
The kid hits 100 yards, which is pretty good.. actually amazing for a child with no real upper body strength.. The father was nowhere near happy and starts blasting the kid about how he's a terrible child and blah blah blah. The kids just taking it. Never did the father say the word "son" or anything and the kids there trying to impress the father by trying really hard until he pulls a shoulder and I heard the kid drop the club and I turn around. He's writhing in pain as his shoulder is probably out of the socket from swinging a iron around for about an hour.
The dad brings out the real hard stuff now, "I hate it how you're my son" "You're no good" "You're embarrassing me" "You're going to be a failure".
I look at my friend and I say that's how rabid drug addicts are born.
We head over and ask if every things alright, the dad shrugs us off, My mate pops the kids shoulder back into it's socket and sits him down. I go get the kid a water. We start blasting the father on how he treats the child. The kids going to get seriously *profanity*ed up if he continues to do these kind of things to his body.
Oh well the father just told us to piss off. We left, I'm feeling sorry for the kid.
Some people shouldn't be parents.

Holy crap. I need a licence to keep birds, but Douche-bags like that guy can just go and have kids, and get away with verbal abuse like that? The poor kid - here's hoping karma comes back to bite his dad in the arse! Seriously, my tolerance towards people like that is ever wavering...
Well, I am currently doing my rounds on the four Primary Schools I have to teach at during middle school exams - always a killer... So today I taught the grade 3 and 4 kids at the smallest of the primary schools in the region - there's like a total of 12 kids combined, so naturally the 3's and 4's share one classroom. I took the 3's first, all 5 of them - as expected - little obnoxious brats. I was teaching them basic english, so todays lesson was animals. During the grade 4's lesson, when I show theme the pictures and teach the english, I happen to say "I think frogs are cute". Standard responce for this remark is "EEEEEWWWW" (little shits), and I also happen to say I like lizards too. One girl, who was particularly obnoxious, yells at me(in Japanese) "You're not a girl, because you like frogs and lizards! You're not a girl! You're wierd!"
-_- I was just like "ouch, bit of a low blow there..." naturally, the teacher did nothing, so I was losing my patience very quickly. This other kid in the class made it a point of copying everything I said, as I was saying it - not in a bid to you know, learn english, but just to mock me. I kept telling him "don't do that - I don't like it" ; they all just thought it was funny, and think I'm an idiot because they think I can't understand Japanese....
so yeah, a day filled with fun, fun, fun... (I want to punch something)

Three things celeste. Firstly, they are children. Kids do these things Secondly. If you are not getting their respect... try shooting a puppy in front of them. My Boss says it always works!  Thirdly... Don't let them get to you. Sometimes in order to get our lessons across we must teach by example. If this student doesn't listen then hit him with a assignment! Kindness and patience were what two teachers i respected had. Be stern only when you must. They are there to learn from you. Frogs and birds are amazing. Tell them about how important it is to have them in the ecosystem! |

I hate it when I am forced to act by work protocol when dealing with westies. Particulary when they threaten my life.
On a side note, what is it with Westies and Bogans and talking like Skeletor?

In my opinion, westies and bogans don't deserve to be treated with any decency if they're threatening to beat you up (from my experience), and I can imagine it's worse for you Borge, because they are your customers... Whoever said 'the customer is always right' doesn't know what they're talking about....
...how does Skeletor sound when he speaks? -_-
