I seriously do...I made the mistake of lurking around on gaia again, and got sucked into a debate with a bunch of bleeding heart teenage pro-lifers...you know, the kind of kids who don't even really know what sex is...I wanted to hurt them. Please, knock some sense into me, people. What ever happened to my days on Gaia when I did nothing but shop for items and stuff? *smacks self*

Teenagers are generally ignorant, so for someone to feel the urge to smack them is not uncommon.

Ignorant, and overzealous, yet pompous that they know everything.

Oh i'm 19. And I know everything *Add RANT HERE*. So you old foggeys should stuff it! :D

teens on here are not usually like the ignorant ones you are referring to. most here are well educated and know what they are talking about.

Thats very nice of you to say but I still think we are in general. You get the odd one every now and then.

Technically, I'm still a teenager myself (I'm 19 for another 6 months), but yeah, this age group is usually quite ignorant. It's mostly people under the age of 17 that tend to get on my nerves, personally. They haven't gotten past that know-it-all stage yet.(Personally, I think I might have slipped into the "oo shiny" stage,lol..burning out already..not good.) Anyway, I'm really starting to appreciate the environment here...educated people, semi-intellectual conversations...am I giving this place too much credit, or am I pretty much right about NS (in comparison to Gaia)?

Yes. They actually bother to learn. Thats why they are the social outcasts they are, and post on this forum. (Myself included)

I have to agree. I only started on this forum today and I must say I am very impressed. People who disagree usually give well thought out and respectfull responses to one another. Heck, even you dirty hippy libs are not so bad around here! ;)

Spending time alone with a computer isn't so bad...it's kinda fun.

Listen, I never said I knew everything (15, by the way. that's right, make your snide comments) and a lot of references I don't understand. However, I know enough information on current events to made informed judgements. I do not enjoy people saying that I'm young and pompous right now, and in time I'll come to see that conservatism is right, or whatever they wish me to believe.

Yes, even if you disagree with people, they still seem quite educated. I'm 15 right now and in the middle of high school, so I can't escape them.

exactly :D

Not to mention anti-social.

Highschool is hell with fluorescent lighting, isn't it? Trust me, it gets better.

Yes. My school is 95 years old, so its also is moldy and dusty. But it's still the best in the city.

Sometimes being antisocial keeps you out of trouble....that, and there's really nothing to do when you're the only person in the building....

Hmmm yes i love this place too (most of the time) but don dis the pro lifers

Yeah there really is nothing else for me to do either... Seing as its 1:20 on a Thursday night and I have school tomorow.

And I guess it keeps me out of trouble... but trouble is fun too. (or at least trying to avoid getting caught [with whatever] and avoid getting in trouble)

Hmmm yes i love this place too (most of the time) but don dis the pro lifers Notice that I said "bleeding heart teenage pro-lifers." I've got nothing against the educated ones, just the ones who get angry and discredit medical facilities such as Planned Parenthood for no real reason. Hop on Gaia sometime and check them out yourself. You'll probably be just as disgusted.

I'd rather be here yapping than out getting drunk. Eye strain is easier to deal with than a hangover.

I don't drink either. I was thinking more along the lines of marijuana, or the far more exiting and illegal activity I sometimes endulge in.... jay walking!

lol Personally, I like trespassing on government property. There's a large mental health facility here, most of which is filled with abandoned buildings, rumored to be haunted. Needless to say, I love dragging the freshmen out there,lol.

And even if it isn't really haunted... You can give those freshman one night of hell... Say, why do they follow you out there anyways?

Ignorant, and overzealous, yet pompous that they know everything.

So basically, exactly like most of the General posters here.

jay walking!

At least thats a healthy illegal activity you got there.

Well, freshmen hear about a haunted place, and for some reason, I seem to attract weird shit. I don't really know what it is, but pictures turn out weird, people see orbs, yeah...weird things...*shakes her head* I don't really buy into all of the explanations they offer me, usually. I think it's because they're a bunch of sheltered pseudo-Christian kids and I'm kind of off-the wall and blatantly pagan. Some guys dragged me away from a movie to use me as a medium in a seance during my freshman year. I decided to humor them and ended up nearly stoned off secondhand smoke...*shakes head* I did some really stupid shit that year...

Without stupid shit, there can't be smart shit. Sounds fun though.
