AHA! Thank you Zero for reminding me of what Florida's minimum wage is. I
forgot whether it was 5.15 or 5.50. ____________________ "People always say what we are looking for is a meaning for life…I don't

Ouch, the min wage in washington is 7.16 which is nice, but it's still $600
or more for a crackerbox apartment, unless you wanna live in tacmoa.
They're actually looking to drastically raise the federal min wage from
5.15 to 6 or 7 bucks an hour, or so I hear.
gov't grants are the best way to go through school if you're one of those
people REALLY good at writing essays and convincing them that you want it
more than someone else and are going to use it wisely. I know the Pell
grant will pay half your living expenses and most everything for school,
but you can only have a maximum of one parent and one sibling who's
graduated college. ____________________ Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas. |

i live in maine and the minimum wage here is 6.25... and it sucks. it's
hard to earn any decent money off of that... especially since no company
wants to pay overtime. and i find that very strange, because a lot of
people don't want to work overtime. they'd rather go home and have nothing
to do with work except when they have to be there. so in reality, the
people staying to work more than they have to will get a lot done for the
company because they are either passionate about it or want the extra cash.
either way, they won't be bad workers because they are sacrificing there
time to stay at work longer than the should have to.
FUCKING DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!
*sticks it to the man again...*
anyways... college... i got some scholarships... and such... pretty neat.
GOOD LUCK to everyone going! it should be an awesome expirence. lots of
hard work mixed with some elements of fun. ____________________ Take your own life... Stab it with a knife! |

Why should they pay overtime when they can just cut you off altogether and
outsource your position to someone that will work for a min wage of
$0.80?
I really don't wanna get going into the economic terrorist tactics this
country pulls on it's own citizens....I really don't...I'll have a brain

Bettie: He is keeping on track that the thread has to somehow turn around

fact I refuse to believe that he says all his shitty comments in term of
trying not to piss everyone off, I often times think when I am being nice
and i actually READ his posts that he is just instigating a fight to
entertain him and his little ploy to make shmeng become a rotting, fetid
piece of shit because sooo many of them are. And a bit after my beginning
at quite recently a was a bit of a troll but I like to think I'm pulling
myself back on track BECAUSE I don’t want to be categorized under a label
with people like Abbadon who simply sit and criticize then whine when
people throw it back in his face. I am in NO way entertained by your antics
Abbadon. I find you rather putrid and annoying. You make my nose turn up in
disgust.

While online during my lunch break at home yesterday I was contacted via
AIM by someone here at Shmeng. Talking a little with them I told them I
don't post much to the forums right now because everyone still seems up in
defence. Mentioning that I'm a bit of a forum troll due to my reading it
but never really posting much. This person asked me what exactly a troll
is. So I told him/her that a troll was someone who says stupid shit for
attention. Who picks fights just because they can. I call myself a forum
troll because I take in everything but do not contribute.
This person then told me that they often go into a forum and pick a fight
and then they "calm down". I told them this was very troll like behavior.
They said "oh really" and then I had a knock at my door and had to walk
away from the conversation. They seemed to walk away as well.
I just don't get how people expect that perfect strangers on the internet
should be caring or forgiving towards them for being rude of being idiots.
What the fuck is wrong with people?! You cannot just walk into a web site
and expect everyone to put up with your shit just because your there! Do
you even have a brain?

ok i think once a man reaches the age of 18 he should be able to piss in
the toilet..well, unless hes not physically or mentally able...but if he is
he should not be pissing on the freakin' toilet..every five minutes i have
to disinfect something (i know..piss is sterile right?) soon enough i'll be
driven insane.....INSANE I TELL YOU!!!!!!!!!

A lot of people know
that they are only fooling around, but people on the net don't, and they
get sick and pissed off with all the shit that takes place....it this was a
recently formed site then i am sure people would be a lot more
forgiving..but it ain't..So I say screw em', I like your point. ____________________ "It is said that we loose ourselves in rage, I think I find what is

Racye, darling there is a BIG difference between "trolling" and observing
or creeping. If you contribute, without being a demeaning jerk or just
screaming for attention, then you're a contributor and not a troll.
Honestly, I'm sick of it right now, said my piece and leaving it at that
unless it is in defense of someone who deserves it, or something better and
less idiotic comes around. I don't blame you one bit luv. If you don't
have to get your hands wet, then don't. ____________________ Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas. |

Sodding cunting bastard hell.
Is it just bad luck? why oh why is it that whenever i spend any amount of
time writing an article, a post on a forum, or anything, anywhere, not just
on this site, but everyFUCKINGwhere, i seem to mysteriously logout in
between the last full stop and the pressing of the 'post' button. how does
this happen to me. it never happens when i write a three word reply, or a
single paragraph. only when i take time and effort to really put some
thought and work into something.
shiteholes. i wouldnt care so much if it wasnt for the fact that forget
that it will happen each time, because sufficient time has passed since i
last built up the will to make such a post, so i dont think to copy it onto
notepad before i switch rom the preview to the post.
does this happen to anyone else, or is murphy just sitting wherever the
fucking cockend sits and laughing at me for forgetting his law. why couldnt
peters law effect me, or even the milder sods law. Oh fucking no. its only
ever murphys law. ____________________ Eritis sicut Deus scientes bonum et malum.
