Post the little lies you tell yourself every day to keep you going.

I'll start:

1. That which does not kill me, makes me stronger. (boy is that a crock)
2. Yes, one more Dr Pepper can will fit in that trash bag.
3. If I ignore it, it will go away.
4. There's nothing the right potion can't solve.
5. All your base are belong to us.
6. No, seriously, this time I won't cum in your mouth.

People whom associate with losing causes are too deluded to be changed by a medium such at this.

That goes for sympathizers of the Nazis, Confederates, Soviets, Apartheids, Eugenists, and the litany of the rest of history's losers.

1) I'll just take half an hour to check my email and forum-surf, and then I'll do my homework.
2) Instant messaging will help me write my essay because I can ask people for ideas.
3) It's not horrible for me to like Britney Spears or the Spice Girls if it wasn't my fault for hearing it in the first place.
4) If I write it on my hand I'll remember it.
5) If I stick it on my doorknob I'll notice and remember it.
6) I can be "only 14" when I don't want responsibility and "almost 15" when I do want rights.
7) It's not pathetic that I've been on NS since the last day of seventh grade, and I'm now in high school.
8) People besides myself actually give a shit that I'm taking all junior/senior classes next year.
9) If I wake up without an alarm it means I've gotten enough sleep.
10) Procrastination =/= later stress.

My fav. lies are:
-Most everything GWB says(those lies are so transparent that it's funny)
-Religion(unfounded beliefs that are believed by billions? Egads! It does make people do odd things at times, and sometimes funny things.)
-Natural things are good for you(See this fugu? It's natural, but it can kill you if it's not prepared right and you eat it. See this hemlock? Natural, but it kills you. Fire? Natural, but it can burn and kill you. Poison dart frogs? Natural and can kill you. Tsunami? Volcanoes? Earthquakes? Natural, but they can kill you. Various plants are natural but can kill you. Get the point yet?)
-Natural things are bad for you(Sunlight? It can give you skin cancer, but only if you're outside a lot more than you should be; you actually should be outside for at least an hour so that your skin can make vitamin D, and you need unfiltered sunlight in order for various cycles to work right. Sex?...let's not go there. Natural sources of water? That's only because PEOPLE polluted it! Outside air? See water.)
-Makeup, dresses, and jewlery make you look good.(More often than not, they make you look either A:Ugly or B:Not any better than you did before.)
-Video games make you violent(I've been playing those since I was five, and I cannot physically harm another human being on purpose; I chicken out before I can.)
