Who would be who?

We'd all flunk.

Who would be who?

you'd be the rape victim *pounces*

you'd be the rape victim *pounces*

*Stabs penis*

Or not.

*Stabs penis*

Or not.

*tells all the popular girls that you have HIV*

I'd be the hall monitor...

We'd all flunk.

ROFL! /thread

I dunno, I'd probably be the smart-aleck sarcastic guy who ignores every class except the one he's interested in, and when he's in the class he's not interested in, he'll read magazines or books. He'd also make random sarcastic remarks.

he'll read magazines or books.

...in school?

*tells all the popular girls that you have HIV*

*Tells them I caught it from you raping me*

...in school?

Not related to any subject in school though. Mostly books about Paganism or the Paranormal.

I'd be the School Shooter.

I'd be the teacher's pet, unpopular with nearly all the students for acting and looking a bit weird. Actually, my friends at school were always the geeks, the goths, and the weirdos no-one else would talk to, so I might actually fare okay socially if NSG was a school, considering there seem to be quite a few misfits on here. *isn't naming names*

Well I know I'm a misfit. *laughs*

I'd be the same as I am in college now :S

*shudder*

I'd be the quiet janitor who secretly lives on campus in the basement.

How the hell should I know?

I'd be Professsor Snape :p

Seriously though - it would be a school with a large amount of geeks, nerds and very pretty ladies ;) Niiiicccee.

*Tells them I caught it from you raping me*

*is kicked out of school and spends all day dicking about at home instead of learning*

sweeet.

Not related to any subject in school though. Mostly books about Paganism or the Paranormal.

omg I'm in Columbine!

I'd be the School Shooter.

clearly what we need to do if we hope to stop further shootings is to ban ns

Who would be who?
Hmm... Who would I be?

No, seriously, I have no idea, but I've been fairly active lately - so you probably do.

I suppose I'd be the History nerd, always with his face in a book, too shy to really talk to anyone, and often snapping whenever someone tries to start up conversation.

a large amount of geeks, nerds and very pretty ladies ;) Niiiicccee.

One of these do not belong, which one could it be?


If you said the pretty ladies, you'd be right. ;)

no idea, but i'd probably hang out with the metalheads and the potheads again

One of these do not belong, which one could it be?

Sits back and observes how the ladies of NSG devour Wilgrove :D

Sits back and observes how the ladies of NSG devour Wilgrove :D

That actually sounds hot.

...I'd be a teacher and most of you would be failing my class.

and guess who has to clean up that mess...

*gets the industrial steamer vac out.*

...I'd be a teacher and most of you would be failing my class.

So, Dr. GoG, what are your views on abortion? *draws GoG into a long political debate until the bell rings*

and guess who has to clean up that mess...

*gets the industrial steamer vac out.*

Ahh the only time I'd get a blowjob. :(

That actually sounds hot.

Of course. Why else would I watch ;)

...I'd be a teacher and most of you would be failing my class.Good luck getting me to stay awake.
Satan couldn't even get me to stay awake in her class.

Who would be who?I'd be the perpetually (Except on test days) asleep guy. The one who never wakes up in class and still passes the test.

Ahh the only time I'd get a blowjob. :(

LOL... with a steamer vac?

Go ahead kid... guess the caf will be serving steamed weenies for lunch...

Slightly sketchy Russian guy here

he has Vodka git im!

Could you stop waving Mr. Cheney around? :p

I'd be the crazy kid running through the hallway naked and tackling people at random. *nod*

i'd be the crazy kid running through the hallway naked and tackling people at random. *nod*
OH NOEZ! MY BOOK HAS FALLEN! :( v

I'd be the crazy kid running through the hallway naked and tackling people at random. *nod*I thought we put you in the closet, dude. :p

I would probably be the outcast amongst the outcast.
Never could quite get to grips with that whole "social code of conduct" thing.

I thought we put you in the closet, dude. :p

Are you saying he just came out of the closet?

I'd be the crazy kid running through the hallway naked and tackling people at random. *nod*

Now I remember why I do my work AFTER school lets out.

Are you saying he just came out of the closet?

Well, he is running around naked, and tackling men.

I thought we put you in the closet, dude. :p

Are you saying he just came out of the closet?

No closet can hold me!!!

he has Vodka git im!

Lol,I actually was the illegal moneymaking operations guy during high school...

I'd be the outsider who hangs out on the front steps with a few friends during lunch, and who always says what he thinks and doesn't give a damn what anyone else thinks about it. :tongue:

Lol,I actually was the illegal moneymaking operations guy during high school...

And after that, becoming President of Russia was easy.

I'd be the outsider who hangs out on the front steps with a few friends during lunch, and who always says what he thinks and doesn't give a damn what anyone else thinks about it. :tongue:

OMG you're so cool! Like james dean reincarnated.

And after that, becoming President of Russia was easy.

I've been found out! *makes a hasty phone call to my friends at the KGB*

I would be in the parking lot smoking between class or just off school property. Skipping school became a past time. I would be listening to Pure Metal talk about who was the better guitarist Jimmy Page or < insert Rock Icon here >. I clearly vote for Jimmy Page. Talking about what video game we are all playing this week. I paid some attention in Science class, some in math, very little in english class (actually would rather drill screws into my hand than discuss MacBeth for nth time), History was occasionally interesting. Music I was useless in ( I think only people who have an aptitude for music should be forced to take music), same goes for Art.

Gym is mostly a waste of time and good class to skip when the teacher is not looking. Actually we had it down to science. Show just long enough for attendance and then suspiciously disappear.

Are you saying he just came out of the closet? See below. :D

Well, he is running around naked, and tackling men.

No closet can hold me!!!I lol'd. :p

OMG you're so cool! Like james dean reincarnated.

"Too fast to live
Too young to die
Bye-bye" ;)

I clearly vote for Jimmy Page

Class fool, then?

OMG you're so cool! Like james dean reincarnated.

Why the need to be rude and sarcastic?

So, Dr. GoG, what are your views on abortion? *draws GoG into a long political debate until the bell rings*

You get extra points for inciting debate. You may not fail right away.

Good luck getting me to stay awake.
Satan couldn't even get me to stay awake in her class.

I'd be the perpetually (Except on test days) asleep guy. The one who never wakes up in class and still passes the test.

You can sleep in my class as long as you don't bother the other students. You'll still fail.

I've been found out! *makes a hasty phone call to my friends at the KGB*

*Makes call to my friends at the YMCA* They breed 'em tough there.

You can sleep in my class as long as you don't bother the other students. You'll still fail.Nobody's complained so far. At least, not to me.

Nobody's complained so far. At least, not to me.

Then you have bad teachers.

I always hated this lie teachers would make :mad:

*taps foot*

Actually, I sleep quite often in class. But I pass everything I get, so I don't get too many complaints.:D

You shouldn't be able to pass if you're sleeping.You're right. Still passing, though.

You shouldn't be able to pass if you're sleeping.
why? I passed all the classes I slept though. Man that fustrated my teachers.

*Is disruptive*

*wishes corporal punishment was still legal*

*sighs and eyes the metre stick*

[whispers] Jack D will be in the usual place.

Good to know...

Why the need to be rude and sarcastic?

NA would have been one of the cool kids who liked making the outsiders feel like outsiders :D

But he would have been surprised to see that sometimes we were rooting for the same team.

*sighs and eyes the metre stick*

Dear God! This is a RP! In general! It's... It's... MAGNIFICENT!

*Torches 900*

Not really.

Really when you think back over it is was mostly a waste of time.

Can someone tell me how Shakespear prepare you for critical thinking? Just about everyone I knew went to the local book store and got the Cliff notes / Coles notes for whatever book we were reading.

Really what does MacBeth teach you about real life? That it is good to be the king? Merchant of Venice? Othello? How about the Great Gatsby? Think of all the books you were force to read and the nonsense essay you had to write. Poetry is right up there as well.

I would paid more attention in Physics, math, chemistry, computers. I would not have gone out for football. I would dropped all second languages (Latin, Spanish, french). Although latin is pretty good for figuring out mottos but that is pretty much it.

I will stick with english, which I am not that good at either but it is my native language. I would taken more shop (Industrial Arts) classes automotive repair would come in real handy today.

But I have excellent technique!

*lets LG have the Rugby ball instead of mucking up my bright white kit*

why? I passed all the classes I slept though. Man that fustrated my teachers.

don't they have coursework in America?

SNIP

are you suggesting that school is in any way important?

don't they have coursework in America?I've never been in a class where coursework is worth more than 20% of your grade. Test/projects are usually 70/80%, and homework is usually 10%.

*lets LG have the Rugby ball instead of mucking up my bright white kit*

Not really maybe if you went to the "right school" made the "right friends"

They should teach usefully things like stockmarket 101, think about if they offered the series 7, how about object oriented programming in C++(could be any language java works for me)? Now that you could use. Business classes, teach you how to fold sweaters for the gap.

NA would have been one of the cool kids who liked making the outsiders feel like outsiders :D
nah, I was most decidedly NOT one of the "cool kids" in highschool. I didn't come into my own really until about 20. Which is really why I have no desire to revist the experience.



But he would have been surprised to see that sometimes we were rooting for the same team.

Ehh, not really. Even though we might be at odds on virtually every political issue I can think of, common ground always exists somewhere.

I'd be the cranky old English teacher who sleeps during class and has a bottle in a brown paper bag in the bottom drawer of her desk.

I've never been in a class where coursework is worth more than 20% of your grade. Test/projects are usually 70/80%, and homework is usually 10%.

WTF! back in my day it was like 40% or higher

how old are you?

SNIP

or something useful like personal finance, Spanish/Polish (depending on the continent your on) or crazy shit like personal fitness

I have no desire to revist the experience.

so I'm not the only one feeling horribly depressed right now *shudders at that stupid hat I used to wear*

I've never been in a class where coursework is worth more than 20% of your grade. Test/projects are usually 70/80%, and homework is usually 10%.

Reports and such are all part of "homework" ?

Goes under "Projects" Usually.

don't they have coursework in America? yep, but courses that do have coursework (not all do) are ones I don't sleep in.

are you suggesting that school is in any way important? nah, just Shakespear.

I'd be the outsider who hangs out on the front steps with a few friends during lunch, and who always says what he thinks and doesn't give a damn what anyone else thinks about it. :tongue:

Nah, youd be the English "teacher" who could explain the symbolism in Lord of the Rings to us.

Course, with your interpretation, might help to be tenured first.


Or maybe the History teacher, with all your cries about Fort Sumter.

Dear God! This is a RP!

No. This. Is.

SPARTA!

.....sorry

WTF! back in my day it was like 40% or higher

No more like this

With regard to highschool. Back to school the movie is priceless. Sam Kinison is awesome! And of course only Thornton would hire Kurt Vonnegut to appraise his own work and he only gets a C!

I'd be the random guy who walks around a lot.

:rolleyes:

Silly boy. If I were ever to become a teacher, I would teach mathematics, because in math there's only one answer and it's the right answer. :D

I would be heard hiding in a piano room in the depths of the music department.

:rolleyes:

Silly boy. If I were ever to become a teacher, I would teach mathematics, because in math there's only one answer and it's the right answer. :D

Youd still probably give the wrong answer to simple mathematical equations, and then just scream about orcs and Sauron when you were called on it.

Then, when you were proven wrong, and the rest of the math teachers disagreed with you, youd scream Fort Sumter.

Why the need to be rude and sarcastic?
Neo Art is the sort of caricature of conformity that I used to think only existed in the paranoid delusions of metal lyricists. It is sort of his thing.
nah, I was most decidedly NOT one of the "cool kids" in highschool. I didn't come into my own really until about 20. Which is really why I have no desire to revist the experience.
The OP doesn't mention "high school" specifically, just "school," which is open to any number of interpretations.
So I'd be a kindergartner. I want my nap time and colored blocks, goddammit!

I'd be the resident sarcastic and Jewish asshole that feeds off peoples misery like those black cloaked things from the third Harry Potter movie... Er, wait... That's what I was in high school.

Everyone loved me, until they became the target of my wise cracks.

Ah, Sakaki-san. Maybe, if she weren't considered a Yankee.:tongue:

Oh, and before the Americans of the site aim at me with all their anthrax and their amo, let me explain that ''yankee'' is a term used in Japan to describe a tall and somewhat strange person.

Oh, that makes it way, way less offensive. Thanks.

I'll have you know the women loved me in Japan. I think the only time I didn't get propositioned by a Japanese girl when we went out was that time that one girl kissed a mouthful of Tequila into Robbie The Canadian's mouth, but he was already drunk, and for some reason got it into his head that she was trying to poison him, so he pushed her away, and then she said "I suck you, long time", which reminded him of that line from the Kubrick flick about Viet Nam, so he started laughing, and she got pissed, and Rizzo The Black Canadian had just dropped a beer onto the porcelain in the water closet, and it broke the lid, and the bouncer wanted 50,000 yen to pay for it, and Rizzo was drunk so he tried to walk out and like five bouncers jumped him, and finally he calmed down but then he tried to leave again, and none of us got laid that night.

Oh, that makes it way, way less offensive. Thanks.

It has, in other words, nothing to do with Americans.

Let me tell you. That's what you get for traveling to Japan with 2 Canucks. Don't you know that Canadians are scary? Do not go on trps with them. You must learn this lesson, because if you don't, you will never get Japan-laid ever again.

never heard that in the Japanese version of the anime. which episode? :confused:

The ep where she's changing for gym. They refer to her as an American (bust) and then as a yankee. You must pay close attention to the Japanese dialogue.

And this is different from now how?

The ep where she's changing for gym. They refer to her as an American (bust) and then as a yankee. You must pay close attention to the Japanese dialogue.

will watch it again. but then again, what's wrong with being tall?

It has, in other words, nothing to do with Americans.

You sure? The etymology of the idiom has nothing to do with Americans? Where would the Japanese have come to associate "tall and strange" with "Yankee"...hmmm....

You're lucky. "Chica" in Japanese means "dude, totally, check out that smokin' little number over in the Full Metal Alchemy section, I would give 100 points off my next standardized test to tap that".

The ep where she's changing for gym. They refer to her as an American (bust) and then as a yankee. You must pay close attention to the Japanese dialogue.

I think every culture should start defining people's appearances through offensive terms for other nations. It would be a great step towards world peace.

No, I meant Q-ko-Chan.

Isn't she cute?!:D
cute? she's a walking diabetic starter! :D

will watch it again. but then again, what's wrong with being tall?

Nothing, but I think the undertone is one of calling a person tough or unappealing. Another anime that uses that strongly is Fruits Basket. Uo-chan, Tohru's friend, is called a yankee by her peers because she has big boobs and is quite tall.

Methinks, a lot, that this anime reference will cause a horribkle debate.:(

I think every culture should start defining people's appearances through offensive terms for other nations. It would be a great step towards world peace.

Spain does it. But we use the term ''moro'' (Moor/Arab) for that. *nod*

So...when you kept shouting "Moro, moro!" it wasn't just Spanish for "more"?

I think it's the charicteristic of being Tough. Sakaki is seen as Tough by the students who don't know her. and the one referencing Sakaki as "Yankee" would be Osaka (if it took place at the pool changing area) and we know Osaka's thought process...

and seeing a "nice Japanese Girl" become Americanized is rather a shocking change. ;)

I've always found it very entertaining how the Cubans have a dish called "Cristianos y Moros"...

For you, it was ''more''.:fluffle:

Little pieces of pasta with sharp edges that try to stab one another?

You remember "Ping Pong Club", where the American was the huge dude with such bad pit stink, they drew it with constantly undulating lines coming from under his arms?

I'm half asleep - so i'm confused with this thread. :p

It's like a jihad in my mouth!

Uo-chan... she's also the Tough one right?

Indeed she is. She was a member of a gang in the anime, and Tohru's mom helps her quit it shortly before dying on the car crash.

Exactly. Still... it's rather odd. American girls don't always give an aura of toughness. Many of the ones I know personally are rather girly and delicate. That's why the explanation for yankee confused me a bit when I read it. What I mean by that is that I don't think Yankee should be synonym of American toughness. I don't think that's the way Americans see it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

and seeing a "nice Japanese Girl" become Americanized is rather a shocking change. ;)

It is, but I've seen that happening more and more in anime as of late. And the use of a lot of English is also quite a strange thing.

Shouldn't the title of this thread be, "If NSG were a school...?"

It IS !

It's like a jihad in my mouth!

I find it insensitive that you would jest about such a thing!

And also extremely funny, but also INSENSITIVE!

I just pictured you doing that...with your tongue...and your throat...your head leaned back, your eyes clenched....

Well, I need to log off for a while.

Rice and black beans, of course.

I did think wealth was within my reach for a while, but then I read some of New Limacon's threads on economics ... :(

There is a fine art to paying the officer just enough that you don't get arrested, and just little enough that it still costs significantly less than the ticket.

You should. And I just noticed we're threadjacking again... we should probably stop.

''Moro'' is also Finnish for hi.

I'd be the School Shooter.

I actually remember my friends making a joke about me being a school shooter. It was weird because I also had, uh, 'plans' at the time...:eek2:

Heh, I wanted to be an astronaut or fighter-jet pilot when I was ten or twelve (1975.)

Then reality started to set in, and while the hundreds of other boy astronauts adjusted their expectations to "computer programmer" or "bus driver" I declared that I wanted to be a wino bum.

Guess what. I'm 45, and I'm a wino bum.

So be careful with that. You could still end up as a psychopathic killer / suicide. :tongue:

''Moro'' is also Finnish for hi.

And it also means ''going down to the coast'' (bajando al moro) in Asturias.

In any case, using ''moro'' is highly despective so I better not elaborate on this one anymore. Besides, it's more threadjacking.:tongue:

If NSG were a school, it'd be on fire, and all would surely perish as they ran around looking for a moderator to complain to about the flames rather than leaving via the clearly labeled fire exits.

Despective is a perfectly rational word. If "introspective" means inward-looking, and "retrospective" means backward-looking, most certainly despective should mean "un-lookable-at."

The usual word is "despicable" but given the lack of a "-spicable" root I say despective is an improvement.

I say to use your best judgment on that one. I had a lot of different hats for "school".

when i'm in a school, i don't give a rat who is who. i'm there to learn things that intrest me, (tecnologies, sciences and arts) and hoomans aren't one of them.

err.. or so I've heard.

It is, but I've seen that happening more and more in anime as of late. And the use of a lot of English is also quite a strange thing. this was RL. My friends Neice came to Hawaii to go to school... and she refuses to go back. :D

Last time I heard her friends from Japan came over, and the differences between them were... let's just say she was shocked she once acted like that.

If NSG were a school who would be principal/dean?

Kat or Fris.

I think they should fight over the top slot.

did you know that special tiles can be made?

add to that the stall doors are not only hollow, but the hinges can be the perfect hiding places for wires...

and you never heard me complaining when I was ordered to renovate all the bathrooms during that last summer break...

I be that annoying dude always on the outside of the crowd who doesn't look like his belongs anywhere,but still catching a lady eye ever now and then so he can crash and burn. Yup, I THAT guy! :P

I shall be 'that kid, the quiet one, the one with the half psychopathic look on his face most of the time.'

that seems to suit me, now I shall slump back into the shadows.

I shall be the rich crazy kid who drives an old T34 to school. And into School. And out the other side of school. Don't worry, it can't shoot anything so its just a traffic accident.

Yeah, NSG is too poor to afford baths. The kids only get showers. :(
