Got Something You Want To Say?

Me too. :sweat: It is easier for me to read the subtitles up close. :mrgreen:

You should try watching it once on TV. You'll be amazed how much detail you miss on the computer and probably will never watch on the computer again. You will see real people with expressions on their faces instead of shadows in the night shots. If you need to see the subs up close you can even sit closer to the TV.

Same problem with golf. Don't know why my golf buddies feel it necessary to play so early in the morning. :shakehead:

You realize you'll have to wear one of those funky white wigs with the curls...

Krim,

I read that query by that young lady regarding her homework assingment.
I think it was commendable for her to come here for help.
Out of curiosity I tried to find the homework thread you referred her to. I never knew there was such a thread. As of now I still can't find it. How will she a noobi be able to find it? Unless I'm a total idiot I can't seem to make it come up in the search engine. Thanks in advance for your help.

:doh:

Maybe.

Or it got merged with some other thread.

What about the "talk crap about school thread"? I know whenever I did my homework I was talking crap about school! :beaten:

It's now confirmed that there are at least 33 fatalities. So awful. I feel so bad for the victims and their families.

I just got an e-mail from my college admin, saying that this situation is bringing light to our own emergency preparedness in these types of situations. Even though it's really hard to prevent this kind of thing from happening, I'm glad that they're raising awareness on how to deal with stuff like this.

Unfortunately, this kinda stuff always happens AFTER a tragedy.... Like 9/11.

I worry about this.

Murders walking on campus with pistols, killing 32 people and injuring what was it... 17 more?

Defectives walking into High Schools and turning shotguns on their class mates.

Children and true believers strapping bombs on their backs and walking into shopping malls.

And my reaction this morning? --- No reaction at all, really.

And that's troubling.

I don't know if it's that I can't quite take it in... or that I can't be bothered to take it in.

You're not the only one.... I think just about everyone is desensitized to this seemingly endless daily carnage that's on the news... :sweat:

When we heard about it at work, there was almost no reaction. Everybody just sort of collectively shrugged their shoulders like, "Yeah, too bad, but what are you gonna do? Now how come I can't log into my system?" Obviously, our priorities are all screwed up. :shakehead: [/list:u]

It is comforting to know that some good will come out of this evil. Especially since there was a 2 hour lapse in time between the first murders in the dorm and the 2nd set of murders in the building with the classrooms. The lack communication to the students was horrendous.

I don't think our lack of reaction or response is one of desensitivity. I think it is because we don't feel we can do anything about it, or prevent it from happening again, in our little corners of the world. After 9/11 in NYC there were places peolpe could go to volunteer or offer some concrete assistance. The rest of the world could watch the news and feel the fighting positive spirit. In this case, we sit in our offices, classrooms or homes after hearing such tragic news and feel numb because we feel powerless to change it from happening in the future and won't allow ourselves to openly grieve and bring it too close to our hearts. Too painful to do so. Sometimes I think we women have it easier because we can let our tears fall freely and no one will think less of us.

Sorry didn't mean to get so serious, but hey just needed to get that off my chest.

(edited to say) They just announced on the news that the killer on VA Tech's campus yesterday, was a student named Cho Seung-Hui, who was a native of South Korea.

I've spent an hour or 2 last night to dig it up, and I've come to this conclusion. A quick search on homework and you'll find stuff from the talk crap, kat-tun and arashi threads. ( releated... ? :beaten: )

I did found some evidence and its past name: HELP ME WITH MY HOMEWORK..........!!!! I tried cached sites, internet archive... didn't work. Found 1 post with the date it got locked here (Sat Jan 21, 2006) and an interesting discussion here. :rofl: IIRC, not long after that, Aho lost like 200 posts or something and lots of threads got deleted. We lost a few good jokes and we can't bring it back. :puppydog:
