So, half of a 5k run in 12.48, or a mile and a half in 12.48.

So that's...one and a half 8 minute miles?

Not too horrible a challenge.

I spent five hours working on this application process. Aside from listing information about my entire life, I ran into this section:

Section [REDACTED]:
Have you ever been a terrorist?
Have you ever associated with known terrorists?
Does the thought of being a terrorist inspire you?
Are you really sure you are not a terrorist?
If a terrorist strikes a bargain with you, would you accept it?
Have you ever tried to overthrow the US Gov. by the use of terrorism?
Are you friends with any known terrorists?
Have you ever been charged with terrorist-related activities?
Have you ever illegally commandeered an aircraft?
Have you ever pretended to be a terrorist?
Have you ever dreamt that you were a terrorist?

...And so forth.

Today may be the last day of this five-day headache. I'm done messing with caffeine.

I can imagine a girl squinting and asking someone out. It would be painful to watch. Perhaps that's not the best idea :P

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say, but if you want to lose weight and remain fit, switch to eating more protein and vitamin-laden foods. Don't just cut out food and expect to be all right.

Using bleach certainly can't be good for you, considering how much Tropers and Bay Watchers use it.

I'm talking about something society encourages: helpless women.
I don't remember ever encouraging that. What about you, the rest of society?
Of the women during my years of high school, a few were Hillary Clinton-style activists, there was a huge track and field hockey team, the jock-'class' girls were very deadset in their social and financial goals, the goth girls were in control of their personality and their lives, and the insecure were often the ones who didn't have many hobbies or ambition.

There weren't as many of these helpless, sit-in-the-kitchen-and-raise-kids style girls as you make it out to be, and this is in Ohio!

Also, to counter-balance the scenario, the men with general confidence and ambition exhibit the same results.

I dated a girl who was completely on top of her life, and it was the best thing in the world. Since I was also like that at the time, it was a relationship of two strong, healthy, and independent lovers. I've dated the clingy, and I've been clingy myself. From what I gather from my friends and 'general society', people want to be with people who bring the best results with the least amount of maintenance. If a women wants to do all the housework and take care of the children, a man isn't going to pass that up, but that same man may want to go off-roading with his lover, or find someone who can keep up with his interests.

Augh what am I trying to say...being complacent will bring you a complacent-liking man. Being yourself will yield you whatever kind of person would be interested in how you are.

(Side note: I personally wouldn't want to be with a girl who sat around all day playing video games...I'd get bored way to quickly. If I exhibit myself as playing games all day, I'd turn off any desirables while attracting undesirables (in my opinion). I think people come with the territory, not that the territory comes with the people)

I think the advice you meant was "it'll be harder to change your personality than look for more people to pick from".  Because I think that's the better idea.

And stereotypes start from somewhere, and you can tell a lot about a person by, y'know, being around them and observing them, as Vector seems to have when talking about people she knows.  Just throwing those out there, lest anyone get too confident that "any human judgment of other humans == prejudice".
Yeah, that's what I meant. It's late.

I think I meant to say there's probably as many people interested in the way you are now as there are in how you plan to change yourself.

How fucking long ago was that conversation?  Do you record all of our chats Toony?  That's pretty creepy.

Excuse me while I reorganize my chatlog folder by date and respondant.
Pidgen saves your conversations. I have a friend that cite's my contradictions.

Vector is stereotyping gender roles. Vector, stop that. Different people like different things. You won't know what someone's like until you get to know them. It'll be just as hard to change your personality to find a specific guy than to just look for more people to pick from.

I watched a movie call Teeth, which must be one of the worst movies of all time.

I find realism adds to attractiveness, and perfect symmetry is uncanny. Of course you don't have to go overboard on it, but maybe that's just me.
