Did daddy ground you for something tonight cause you are being a whiny little bitch.

My day:

I woke up at 6:30 AM, got to school at 8:05, started class at 8:15, trolled the webDip forum through my double econ (in my defense, others that don't have some form of entertainment simply resort to sleeping through class), ate lunch, talked with Pacers broadcaster Mark Boyle for an hour, went through the rest of my school day, worked out vigorously for an hour after school in preparation for my climb this winter, drove halfway home, almost got hit by a semi that ran a red light, drove the other halfway home, ate half a frozen pizza, went to work, worked five and a half hours (when I asked some woman "how's the food taste?" she responded "good, how about you?" and I managed to contain my laughter until I got back to the dish room), stayed thirty minutes after close for no particular reason, drove home, listened to my voicemail (apparently some gut from San Francisco is going through a nasty divorce and decided to vent to me. Called me a "lying whore" and a "bitch"), uploaded the message to my computer, posted it to Facebook (that's how much respect I have for people), got on here and wrote this massive ramble.

Maybe that'll explain why I'm a whiny bitch.

Other possible explanations: a) I'm a teenager, b) I'm tired as fuck, c) I have to work again in 6 hours, d) it's Yom Kippur tomorrow and my parents won't let me eat, e) I didn't get the scholarship I wanted from Northeastern, f) my newsfeed is still filled with idiots spouting 9/11 conspiracies.

Pick any and roll with it.

Damn bo, your life is so full of things.

My day:
Woke up at noon. Went running. Built a computer. Wasted rest of the day on computer.

I think I win.


In unrelated news, why the fuck would Northeastern be offering you scholarships now? Isn't it a bit early, even for you freeloading sports guys?

They offered me a two week decision if I applied early action, so I did, and they gave me a two week decision. I didn't get their [random person's name] scholar award though so I can't get a full ride on academics. Not really all that shocking.

a) Our counselor requires we get all of our applications in by October 31 (beats all scholarship/ED deadlines in the country; allows him to focus on juniors the remainder of the year too), so no, I'm probably right on par with everyone else in my class.
b) We're in the top 1.5-3%, sure, but we aren't millionaires or something like that. We have enough to have some luxuries but only because my parents have invested wisely throughout their lives, not because they make a ton of money. In fact, I probably make more than they do in a single weekend (assuming two shifts) when you account for the expenses they pay.
c) Thanks. Came by surprise this morning.

Sorry Liberal Hate Mongers & Gay Right Industry insiders....Matthew Shepard was NOT murdered for being gay. Seems he was a Meth dealer, most likely killer because of his drug use, possibly by a gay lover...

Sucks when the homosexual hate crime bullshit narrative to the country turns out to be a lie, huh? Kind of like all the bullshit claims of racism frequently seen, or sexism...which are far LESS prevalent in reality than those Liberals who PROFIT froj keeping hate alive claim...

Liberals suck.

When did I spout a conspiracy theory?

The idea that Shepard was a gay hate crime was never demonstrated with anything other than rhetoric.

Now there is a book in which there are interviews with friends, family, business associaes, the killers, etc....a much larger picture than EVER was presented in the media.

Yeah...I'll accept this over the trumped up political message douchebags like you bought hook line and sinker at the time....just as you - good gullible sheep that you are - tend to believe everything your media pumps in to your head as long as it validates your pre-concieved notions....which notions were formed by the same liberal machine that educated you...thus you are easy prey for such manipulations.

The court testimonies suggest Shepard was killed because the guys freaked when he supposedly came onto him. Anyway, they didn't convict McKinney of premeditated murder, and none of this was in the court testimony that I've seen. Without going into detail, the court ruling suggests that they didn't lure him into the truck to kill him but that they killed him because of something he did to them in the truck.

The trial is over, the dudes are locked up, speculation is pretty much useless at this point.
krellin (80 DX)
16 Sep 13 UTC
lol....yes, speculation is useless...the truth doesn't matter as long as you like the narrative that resulted.

You know, defendants use strategies all the time to get off that don't reflect reality, Bo. How many people plan out a murder and then claim insanity? Duhhh...

So, these guys used the strategy of "a homo came after me and I freaked out in the moment and reacted violently and killed him...no pre-meditation, etc"...as opposed to the "we had a bad drug deal/I wanted his drug stash so i killed him..." defense...

Think before you spew, Bo...
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
16 Sep 13 UTC
Yes, speculation is useless. We are in a legalist society, are we not? I didn't speculate over whether Zimmerman murdered Martin or not because the court said he didn't, so I'll roll with it. Either way you slice it, McKinney and his friend (whose name escapes me) intentionally killed (i.e murdered) Matthew Shepard.

I have a problem with claiming insanity too. I don't know why that came up, but I agree with you there.

IDEA: Enclaves & Exclaves
I've get a hard-on from keeping non-SC territories neutral or the color of an eliminated player; maybe it's the Yankee in me, but I hate seeing the entire board a single color -- it just seems so totalitarian.... So, here's an idea: what if you got an extra SC worth of "supply" for surrounding such "unowned" territories?
