[B]Been working there for nearly 6 months now. So.. hmm.. about 140+ shocks so far. :) [/B][/QUOTE]
Isn't that how it has to be: one shock for every day. :D
I'm reminded of that Simpsons episode where Lisa's science project was to prove that a gerbil was smarter than Bart.
One of her tests was electrifying a pellet of food. When the gerbil was shocked trying to eat the tasty morsel, he kept well away from it from then on. Meanwhile, Bart kept trying to get at an electrified cupcake, repeatedly shocking himself.

Really?! I really can't recal once! Well obviously must be a Swedish thing with regards to women. :)

C_Mon, I don't believe you! :)
Another irritation is ppl who don't clean up after their dog fouling.
And seagulls ( a mild annoyance) when they pick at dustbin bags and make a right mess.
And all the rubbish is strewn everywhere.

We'll it's cloudy to day also. YAY! :)
I remember as a kid when we were asked in pre-school what we thought was the best season and everyone answered summer or winter, but now if someone asked me I would answer Autum. :)
we meet twice a week for lecture, Monday and Wednesday..
5 minutes before the end of class time on wednesday, the lecture was winding down, and she was getting ready to release us...
then said "OK, I think thats everything you'll need for the test on monday..oh!"
then writes "Log(log(log)))" on the board, and solves the problem really quickly and erases it...
then releases us....
there is something WRONG with this teacher. She managed to get about 60% of the class to withdraw in the first week, and of the few (I think 10 of us) that are left, no less then 4 are positive they are going to fail the class, but HAVE to take it.
gah...

yeah, i had a teacher like that my second last year of secondary school. did my head in. how i got a B i dont know:rolleyes:
what really annoys me these days is when the lecturer is writing on the board in such small writing that u cant see it; so u ask him/her to write bigger, but all they do is outline it a bit harder:mad:

Autumns can be nice if the sun is out and weather warm. But in all I think I prefer Summer and Autumn the least. Everything starts withering/dying and the nights get darker. By winter I'm used to it and pray for snow. :)
[QUOTE][B]Summer, in a couple billion years when the sun has died out. I agree with you. [/B][/QUOTE]
Lol thats very depressing Exile. ;) You need to go live on Pluto I think or that new planet Sedna. (horrible name I think)

ShadowDancerWhen I say, "Why aye, gadgie," in my heart I say, "Och aye, laddie."London, UK
i suppose someone has to find him attractive:D
im a summer fan personally, mainly cos winter round here is so bloody miserable and wet. if it were dry cold id be happy, but its not:(
wet cold is not so bad. rather rain than what we have at home...it's supposed to be snow but its not...(actually it is snow, at least flr a day or so, but then it turns into a graybrown slush puppy...).
well, the air is bloody dry, it's just your sweating so much you go though 3-4 shirts a day....
I can drink 2.2 leiters in a single sitting (5-8 minutes) after spending all of two hours in the summer heat here...
so you see...I'm a fall/winter/spring fan here...I HATE the heat.
ShadowDancerWhen I say, "Why aye, gadgie," in my heart I say, "Och aye, laddie."London, UK
nah, heat is better than cold. id rather drink alot than sit anywhere freezing. also my hands are the first things that i cant feel properly if its cold, which means that i cant play my bass. dont have that problem in the warm:D

ET you're not like Xander are you?! ;) Being a Buffy fan, Xander went out with a teacher that turned out to be a preying Mantis (whatever they're calledl lol) He made a joke out of it saying that was the only attraction he got from the female species tehehee! :D
As for seasons, I think preference also has alot to do with where you live in the world.
It doesn't really get too hot here in Summer and no Mosquitos. But I do worship the sun anyway, though now I'm a snow worshipper too. ;)
Rain well once a wk is fine but every day for a wk and the next I loathe.
Another thing really irritated me today, is in the shops.
Nearly always the shop keepers never put you stuff in the bag for you and they're on the actual counter infront of me yet how simple it is! They pick up each item to read off barcode and all they have to do is put it in the BAG! Doh! Today.......2x there wasn't any bags so I had to ask and they act like "what oh yeah"? as if they're really dumb. Why can't they be taught? Its not hard!! There's only one woman in my town that puts stuff in a bag.
The newsagents have bags behind the counters so obviously I can't get them, yet I still have to ask everytime.
Anyway thats my rant for today.

Pre Calc again, we had a test on monday. To prepare for this test, I spent 10 hours thursday studying, 6 hours friday studying, 12 hours saturday studying, and 8 hours sunday studying, for a total of 36 hours studying for a single test.
In my book, that should equal a shoe in for an A. I mean, hardly ANYONE can spare that much time to prepare for a test, soooo, should be good, right?
Wrong.
I got a "D". A Freaking "D" after studying 36 hours!
There was ONE C, 7 Ds, and 10 Fs on this test. GAH!
So, she is giving us the option to re-take it next Friday. It'll prolly be harder. (She hinted as much, she considered this an "easy" test)

I have. Many times. Though not as common as men spitting for sure, the female spitting is widely recognised here in Sweden.
Rude customers, and that fucking methodone-taking bitch who comes into our store and expects 5-star treatment every time.
