The Daily Chit-Chat

[Chris]

Really? Hmm... maybe we did, I'm pretty sure it was ONLY in Reception, perhaps Year 1 as well...honestly can't remember.

Definitely didn't have in Year 2 though.

[Bear]

We must have been retarded then. Then again our school trips were very strange. We went to the Tesco's down our road! How exciting.

[Spaz The Great]

I stole loads of Biff and Chip books. Who can forget the classic Biff and Chip and the magic key.

We don't have those in America.

One of my friend's girlfriend stole Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire from the library in ninth grade. Then she threw it in her fireplace because she had no urge to read it.

Hehe that sounds funny

If I stole a novel from my school library, would that make me a rebel too?

Almost got something'ed to death day before yesterday. Came across some psychopath in a forest. I was drunk, a friend was drunk and sleeping and two other friends were out to get something to drink and would be back within 20 minutes (it was 4:30 AM by the was). And then, suddenly, a man was screaming and charging at us. He was about 200 meters away but I didn't know he was heading for us, so I was just cusually getting all my stuff. I then realized that he, in fact, was getting very near. I beat my friend and told him to get the fuck out. He went, I quickly grabbed my phone, wallet and some other stuff and jumped on to my cycle and took the time just to look back. The guy was just a mere 15 meters away and still charging right at me. Cycled as a motherfucker.

I survived, hurray. I won't be going back there at night anymore though..

[TG187]

He probably wanted to say "Hi".

[Hansui]

Yeah, the guy probably wants to befriend you. Though on a quite unusual way.

That's gotta be the funniest post ever lol

It's a bit unusual to charge at you just to say hi

[The Bossman]

"Excuse me madam, do you know where I can find the nearest portaloo cabin? Oh, OK. Nevermind, thanks anyway." *Runs off*

[Pandora]

Meh, you guys should have heared the guy screaming. Nobody sane screams like that.

It didn't scare me at the time, all I thought was that I should just GTFO, just in case he'd head our way (not knowing he was running at us). But looking back, man am I happy I took action immediately.

Oh, and did I mention that just before I fled (when he was pretty darn f**king close), he said "Don't run from me, boys."

Yes, that'd make you think he was up to any good... you should have heard him say it. I'm happy I went.

Other then that, I think I heard a women being raped that night, a few hours before the man came. Not sure though.. She was just shouting for like 2 minutes and then stopped.

Edit: I totally forgot to tell..

So I was supposed to go to some disco like place today (Hollywood Music Hall, in Rotterdam). I didn't go in the end.. Just because I didn't feel like spending money (as I've got all these fines and stuff). Now it turns out some girl I dig like a motherfucker is there. Really, not just some nice girl. I've seen her as the holly grail of sex for the past 3,5 years now. That's a long time, right? Fuck. She's drunk right now, probably. I envy my friends who are there now. They better now do her.

[Dirty Harry]

I'm fucking starving.

[Nate10]

i didn't really find Jace's post funny at all. I hate when shit like that happens.

For instance: a month ago at around 2 in the morning my cousin and I walked over to the local 76 gas station and there was a bum on the side. I walked past and shook my head to him in a friendly manner, and like the dumbfuck my cousin is, he said how are you. The bumb looked at us, told us to come closely, asked us if we'd buy booze and I said no, then he said to not tell the clerk that he's out there hittin' the bong...

So I go into the place, we get our shit, and when I give the dude my money to pay, I look back and the bum is looking at us through the door and when he sees I see him he quickly goes back to the side of the place. I told my cousin just just hold his knife when we walk out, and I'd do the same, and when I said that the clerk asked what we're talking about. I just told him there was some sketchy dude outback. He didn't seem to have a problem with it.

So as we're walking out I was just passing the first pump at the station and I look back wondering why people were yelling, and the clerk was telling the bum off how he'll call the cops and get him arrested if he doesn't leave. At that exact moment, when I looked at the bum, I saw his eyes were completely fixated on me. I kind of got the chills but shrugged it off. About 5 seconds later I heard the bum screaming at the top of his lungs saying he was goning to kill me and my cousin. I looked back, and he was running towards us. Fast for a bum too.

He was somewhat far away still, but my cousin was already off. I was pissed because I'm out of shape but we basically ran about a mile towards our house. We ditched the bum after I caught up to my cousin after about 5 minutes by jumping some fences and running through the back of some people's houses along the way. Still though, we stayed up all night looking through the windows in secrecy just in case.

Worst part about all this: I dropped $30 dollars, a flashlight, and half the fucking food I bought when we were running for our lives.

[TG187]

That's why you should take some professional fighting classes, you can never know when you will need the skills in situations like these. Its better to be ready not to be taken by surprise. ( Opinion )

I actually always thought most of those were a little practical but they'd probably do me some good. I can hold my own in a fight, and have, but eh, there's always more to learn.

[Pandora]

I understand the fear. I was a little wtf at first too when people said they found it to be a pretty funny story. I wasn't scared at the time, even felt sort of amused afterwards (sort of the same feeling as when you evade the cops, but than better. I call it the "Haha, BIATCH!!" feeling), but at the time.. it just felt like serious business, all I could think of is we've got to get the fuck outta here.

I made a little discovery yesterday by the way. It seems that we we're not all that far from some place for the mentally unstable (psychopaths, too). The forest being notorious to be a place were these guys go to if they manage to slip out (as it's not a prison and they may leave now and then. Though not at night.. this guy must have escaped. Seems to happen quite often).

So basically, this guy was indeed insane and god knows what he would have done if he would have gotten his hands on us.

Luckily, I didn't lose anything. Packed everything just in time.

I did martial arts quite long ago.. I´ve got very little stamina these days, and though it sounds corny, I actually still am pretty strong. I´d beat most peoples ass of anyone my age. Those ´Though´ guys at school leave me alone cause they know I´d beat the shit out of them if they´d ever really annoy me. All it takes is just looking at them and they´ll back off. Pretty funny at times.

I don´t really look strong though.. It annoys me. I´m pretty much just bone with muscle. No fat at all, but it makes my arms look not all that strong, as it´s not very big in my opinion.. People who have had physical contact with me know better, but it´s annoy that usually, people don´t just realize it at first glance.

Still, I can´t fight strong grown up men head-on. I'd rely on tactic, and that's pretty much useless when fighting a crazy guy with a weapon.

Also, I'm thinking of actually finally posting a picture of myself here, on TGTAP.. but I'm not sure yet.

I hate putting pictures of myself on the Internet. Even for some website that practically only consists out of video clips I'm barely ever visible, and that being my own site..

I actually like the fact that I'm only 5'5" and am skinny, makes people THINK you are weak, but like you I can hold my own in a fight. I guess this would be an alright time to say that you should never underestimate your opponent?

Oh and my I ask why you don't seem to like posting pictures of yourself? Obviously you don't have to answer, just am curious....

Me too. I don't find it good to post pictures of myself on internet no matter how safe someone will say it is, that's what they say on some sites. Who knows on who's hands gets my picture and what the hell he would do with it. If someone believes what I say is cool, if not its still cool. Don't have a problem.

I have that problem at my school too with other colleagues. ( Romanian education system is very different from the UK's one, just in case someone asks ). They like to have fun of others just because they are little or have less strength than them. I go often at the Gym that's why I am a bit muscular and so and the ones from school don't really say nothing to me. Have attended some fighting classes few years ago too. Haven't forgot the moves though. Like I said in my earlier post, is very good to know how to fight properly, you cannot know when you will need the skills in a fishy situation. Can happen everyday.

I don't know.. I always just hate pictures of myself.. I'm fine with just looking into the mirror, but just not pictures. I hate it when friends make pictures of me, and it's another reason I don't use social networking sites.

Until then.. just remember my mom's from Asia, dad from Europe. I've got short, black hair and I'm about 6 feet tall and have a pretty slim build, I think..

I'll post one day..

Reason I'd hate being judged as not all that strong at first is because people see it as a weakness that can be exploited. Well, it can't, but it's just annoying to always have to make that clear. Too much of a hastle..

It's strange that I'm strong though.. I really don't do a damn. My legs are pretty fucking muscular (you know, with all the lines of the muscles being visible, like in DragonBall Z ), but that could be explained by me having cycled quite a lot to school in the past, but I've got no idea why my arms are so strong and my abs so visible.. I really don't do a thing and used to eat a shitload of food. I don't these days though.. Probably because all the nicotine, I really have lost all my appetite... On the bright side, I'm trying to quit (: Haven't had any today yet.. I'm down to just about 1 a day now.

[Nate10]

Ahh. I gotcha Jace. Not to go off topic in here but I figure I'll get a few more responses in this thread than in the Big Community thread... but yeah I was wondering: what is everyone's take on suicide?

I understand when people have a terminal illness and they don't want to suffer anymore. I would rather go with dignity.

I have to say though when people kill themselves in public places like on the train rails I find that really annoying. I missed a Babyshambles concert because someone threw themselves on the rails. I just find it selfish really.

I agree. It's bad enough that there life was that bad that they wanted to end it, but then to make everyone else see it, etc. It's like "wouldn't pay attention to me? now you will!"

Suicide is a "permanent solution to a temporary problem" as most times depression, embarrassment, whatever ails you can be solved with medication, counseling, etc.

Like Bear said if someone is terminal then I can see the desire to do it yourself rather than dying in so much pain, but I'd like to think that if I'm ever unfortunate enough to have a terminal disease I'll face death down and die when it comes for me and not take myself out.

Oh and, for people who murder innocent people before taking themselves out? Why? Why did you have to hurt so many others? Why couldn't you just end your life?

[NickS]

It's either they don't want to die alone or they want to see what it's like to kill someone or maybe it's because they've gone nuts.

[Iconoclast]

Or they kill them with a reason that seems logical to them, and then suicide because it got clear to them after the murder. Pretty weird, if you ask me.

[NickS]

I've always wondered how getting hanged actually kills you. Does anyone know why? And when someone gets hanged, do they die immediatly?

[Bear]

It depends on how long the rope is.

If its too short it will take off your head.

If it is too long then you you will strangle to death as the force isn't big enough to break your neck.

If it is the right length then your neck will break and death will be instant.

Its all done by measurments of body weight and height. I saw it on this show about finding a less painful way of being executed and they went through all the different types of execution. So they did experiment on hanging a dummy with different lengths of rope.
