    School is gay

    School's about more than just the individual facts you learn, it is more about learning methods of thinking. Education teaches people how to write and think analytically which are two very valuable skills in the modern workforce. Also, Daniel Quinn has brought up some relevant points about the...

    Most depressing song...

    "Jeremy" by Pearl Jam Also, idk if anyone's still confused but "Hurt" was definitely originally a NIN song that Johnny Cash later covered (and changed a few words.) My choice as most depressing song would have to be a different NIN song. "Right Where it Belongs" is really sad and questions...

    School is gay

    Unless you have some unusual skill or get very lucky, its doubtful that without college you'll find a job with a salary capable of supporting a family. The reason society tells you that its worth studying and going to college is because in 20 years that could be the difference between making...

    Ipod Touch

    Someone in one of my classes had the 8 gb one, it was really sick. Not only was the interface and everything just as nice as on the iphone, but he had also cracked some software thing so that he had a NES and SNES emulator running off his ipod touch so he was able to play all of those classic...

    Your favorite class in highschool

    I enjoyed US History junior year because everyday we would have epic political debates, it was so much better than classes in which teachers just reiterated information from the textbook.

    Any bright ideas for scaring friends on halloween??

    Get a ghille suit so you can hide in grass and bushes and jump out at people. If you're completely concealed they will be much more scarred when you jump out to startle them.

    Itunes alternative

    I personally dislike Winamp, but one time when itunes stopped working for me I was able to configure songs on my ipod using it. There are definitely more freewares that are compatible with ipods, but winamp is the only one I personally know of.

    This movie looks AMAZING

    Of course this movie is insensitive and politically incorrect, those are the reasons why its going to be hilarious.

    College is hard

    I've been working much harder so far in college than I ever did in high school, however my mid-term grades at college have actually been much better than they usually were in high school. Of course, if I had enrolled at Carnegie Mellon I would probably be working my ass off without the good...

    Significance of color in the great gatsby, anyone?

    Say that the color of the billboard with the big eyes (I forget which color it was) symbolizes the color of god because that billboard watched over the valley of ash like "god." Say that the gray color of the ash valley is the color of death, poverty, and despair. I can't think of a third, but...

    HAHA i may be F%*&ED

    Even if you couldn't do this, I'm almost positive that when you arrive you can change which SAT 2 tests you are taking. You can simply take whichever tests you need when you arrive because with SAT 2s they simply give you a booklet with ALL of the SAT 2 sections so you could just take US...

    College essay topics

    start off by quoting ben folds: "Let me tell ya'll what its like, Being male, middle class and white" Actually, don't do that. If you do choose to use that as your essay topic you'll have to write very carefully to not come across as arrogant, racist, spoiled, and bratty. What are you reasons...
