Enjoy it while you can though, any of you youngsters. Bills suck.

Believe it or not I know what you mean, Agony. WARNING: SLIGHT SINGLE POST DERAIL

I was bored one day a year ago and decided to daydream about what it would be like to be an adult: having to deal with idiots on the road, I hate when my dad has to do that *says 10 in head when he sees people going over speed limit*

The more money you make at work the more you have to pay in taxes. Bills take away what you really want to use your spare money on. If you are too nice to kids then they will become spoiled brats, not nice enough and they won't value life. You don't have as much time to play, or to even interact with people as if you were a kid. You have to wear ties *grumbles* and have to go to court for jury duty. If a liar ever gets you into court, just one wrong word can send you to jail. ((I think U.S. Judges have too much power))

Mortgages go on for what seems like an eternity. Instead of people getting you those tons of presents for Christmas, you have to buy them yourselves: which isn't really bad except a lot of kids like electronics that cost more than $70.

And worst of all: If you don't do well in school you have slim chance of getting into college. And if you don't go to college you get stuck on the back of a garbage truck. ((actually that isn't that bad. If you think about it, garbage men/women must make a lot of money.))

And we come back to the beginning here: If you do go to college you will most likely get a good, paying job; but the more money you make the more you have to pay. So that year when you parents kick you out of the house must stink.

Basically I am glad to be 11 :mrgreen:

And that's my two and a half cents

Naaaa

You can get a job and after a year, get trained up to be the manager. Once you done that, you can be a manager in any other simular types of work... it aint all bad

School - well - yeah - that was in the 70's...

All I remember is smoking the gree stuff and playing PnP DnD.

Suffice to say - I didn't learn much...

Well I've cooled down again now since I just had my poetry/ramble on about journies english exam and I did alright I think. And yes, school is good fun, apart from the exams of course. I can't comment on what it's like to be all gorwned up and have responsibilities, but you can always find fun somewhere ^^

Yeah.. That was -high-school for me. We used to go outside during breaks and have a smoker, just before either dutch or german classes, because we felt those were most boring and just because those were most of the times after the lunchbreaks. One day, a friend of mine brought some sweets too, to one of those lunchbreaks. So I took one. I have -never- been so sick in my whole life. Don't do candy, mmmkay?

A lot of people actually got suspended from school because they did something druglike.. Sometimes I really wonder what will be coming of this nation. But on the other side, it does create some fun at times.

Ah.. and then we grow older.
