IF you're bike is highly decorated, 90% chance it will not get stolen. IF you're bike is some $20 craigslist mountain bike with absolutely nothing changed, 50% chance it will get stolen without a lock. IF you're bike is locked, you are 100% safe. IF you do not worry at ALL about your bike being stol...

Direct quote from his acceptance speech:

"These times show, that sometimes, war is necessary, to maintain peace."

Sheez what a tool this guy is. You're paying all that money because the people at the top who organize Burning man are slowly collecting all the money they need to eventually lock us onto the playa, some say the year of 2012, and make us their eternal slaves for various sick, demented, and sexual pl...

Just leave the country, it's very simple.

So where do the 100's and 100's of people recording come from?

I have to say I'm Lebanese-Armenian and my voice is DAMN sexy. The ladies freakin' LOVE my accent. Picture the movie preview guy voice, just as deep but a LOT suaver, coupled with an excellent vocabulary.

It's a really long shot but I'm just throwing this out there. What if we have a public transit system that is run by the residents of Black Rock City? What I have in mind is a 'people-hauler' towed by bicycles. I haven't really put much thought into how the actual design will be but five bicyclists ...

Oh really? That might explain it.

Yes it is pretty peculiar now that you mention it.

Oh why thank you.

Armand - Pleas don't assume you know what it is I was referring to by making a characterization of me as a troll. I'm a Dragon Lady, thank you very much. As someone who seems to know everything, I would have expected a more accurate interpretation. I would have expected a more accurate interpretati...

I only become negative when the all powerful God himself wakes me in my sleep and tells me which random hobo I should butcher for today as a sacrifice for our almighty lord.

TLTR But I do just want to say how sad this thread is. Imagine realizing at the age of 18 that life has nothing more to teach you. Yes, I've made it very clear that life cannot teach me one more thing. I'm pretty much the next Jesus and consider myself a prophet from God himself. Life can't teach m...

Well I have to say I always take this topic seriously. I'm fully aware of trolls/trolling but yea, it gets annoying after a while, especially when it gets to the point on some forums where every single person is trying to troll each other.

Either way, I feel I represented myself well.

I have a response for that but all I'm going to say is balls JK, balls. That is all. And I don't "make it work out for me," life does that part. So I am to understand that you think that it takes balls to be irresponsible? Again, I would think that a person with "The Answer to Life" would not have ...

And yes, shit still does happen to me, its just a matter of how you look at it, and how you can make the best of it. Take my getting pulled over about an hour ago as an example. I felt like total shit because I knew he caught me in a complete oversteer, but in the end its going to work out for me. ...

And yes, I am going to burning man this year, and plan to for every year for the rest of my life. I'm currently busting my ass trying to get a theme camp going for this year with my brother and other group of friends coming. We already have sound completed, and it's going to be called "Watermusic an...

Armand - Below the box that you type in when posting, there are 4 boxes. Make sure that all of them are unchecked, i.e. that there is no check mark in the box that says "disable bbcode". You can also adjust this to be your default setting in your profile. I think the reason why people are reacting ...

Oh I'm only friends with maybe 3 people from my graduating class. The rest of my friends range from 20-24. No I didn't buy my ticket yet. I buy mine last minute from people who have to sell them. Last year I bought my ticket for only $60 bucks. Just another way I save my money. JK, stop making assum...

All my other posts are examples from my daily life as well as just clarifying my philosophy on life to others. But when you tell me I'm just another 18 year old, then yes, I am going to try and defend myself because I'm not just another 18 year old. Whatever man, I'm really not going to get into the...

Everyone has their fuck-ups in life, and everyone did stupid shit in their teen years. Read all the posts I have made in this thread, do you know of any other 18 year old with such a positive and levelheaded outlook on life? It's obvious you don't agree with the way I look at everything, but I'm not...

lol please tell me how. I literally quoted others and applied the same tags and I don't know why it's not working, it works for every other forum im on. So yea, BBCode, how do i do it?

[quote="Boijoy"]:: clearing throat ::: I TRULY want and BELIEVE I should have a beer. ok,, but Armand ( after 11 infractions including 3 DUI's all at a tender young age of 18..) telling this poor cop his life story... is PRICELESS.!!! :lol: Armand.. that's just some funny shit.[/quote] Hey the cop d...

I respect every single person's point of view, opinion, thought process, and logic, but I don't agree with all of them. [quote="Armand"]I'm sorry but [b]in my opinion[/b] that is the stupidest quote I've ever read. It pretty much reiterates what I said above. The person who wrote that quote is a tot...

Yet another example of my every day life. I just got pulled over about an hour ago because a cop saw me drifting in my datsun 240z. By the time he made me sign the ticket on the trunk of his cop car, and after I was done telling him my life story and why I do not deserve this ticket. He told me, "I ...

[quote="Armand"] One example of many, I went to fill up gas the other day, and I had lost my wallet and I couldn't find it. I didn't immediately think of the worst and think something like "OH CRAP I musta dropped it before I went into my car and someone musta stolen it, spent all my cash, and proba...

[quote="ourania"]Oh to be 18 and think I know everything again. Seriously, sometimes shit just happens. There's no way that everyone who has ever had anything crappy happen in their lives has manifested it themselves. I work in a children's hospital and this attitude drives me a little bonkers. I wo...

I don't mind the criticizing, but I have mastered this philosophy so well that nothing really bad has happened to me since I've been practicing this point of view with not a single doubt. I do believe that you can even control others mistakes causing you harm, such as a drunk driver hitting you. I d...

Here is an essay I wrote with the intention of helping others. I have recently discovered exactly how life works and can literally make anything I want in my life occur. This essay sums up how I do it pretty well. Fyi I'm only 18 years old, I have done drugs in the past but I don't plan on doing any...
