My mom says she doesn't pay me an allowance because I never help her with anything. Then I say she never asks for help with anything, and she says I never ask IF I can help. Regardless, she MAKES me do the laundry anyway, and she used to pay me an allowance (3 dollars a week, la-dee-freakin-da) for it but quit with that. Grrrrrrrr. LAURA WANT MONEY! All I have in my wallet is saved-up birthday money. My method for quick cash: Don't spend all the lunch money my parents give me. Of course, that just brings on my peeve of not having a full stomach. |

I have the Mom who Sends Lunches Packed. Except on Certain Salad-Bar-Worthy Occasions. Yeah, it sucks. But my mom buys me a lot of stuff I want, so I guess I should not complain. But I will anyway. |

Oh well, Mrryh. Sorry fo your lack of money. Another thing I hate. (I will be talking about chorus now) I am a bass. So, my vocal range is very limited, from really low, to low. And I hate it when there is a note in my part that is too high for me. I am the only bass in the school, so there is no one else to hold my part with me. So, when I can't reach the high notes, you can feel the hole, and it really bugs me. |

I hate it especially right now, because my dad and I are painting all of our bathrooms. And it stinks, and I hate it. But, I do get money for helping my dad, so that's pretty cool. I love the smell of fresh paint. I don't know why. I think my sense of smell is different from everyone else's. For example, I don't mind the smell of a skunk unless I'm REALLY close to it, like the time my dog got sprayed. Ooh, that reminds me: Pet peeve: Trying to get skunk smell off a dog. |

It's better than what I get (not my much, though). I get ten dollars a month. You get twelve dollars a month. I save my money wisely, I think. I bought my computer for $13.00 at a garage sale, fixed it up, and now it works fine (just a little slow). I'm buying a $50.00 television. I bought my stero for $100, probably the most expensive thing I've bought. Other stuff (PS2, H*R stuff) is from relatives and holidays. If I sold everything I had, I'd probably have around $500. |

Well, now I get zero dollars a month, since she gave up on the allowance thing. Curses! |

Oh, SNAP! My parents never gave me an allowance as a child. Remember parents, if you don't want your child to end up sitting in front of a computer screen talking to TEF like poor Ace, give generously to your children. |

And how do you think the miserable TEFs feel about that? Seriously, folks. Help the poor guy out. Donate. To the Help Ace Get a Life Foundation.
Peeve: Kaiser Williams. All of you go PM Duct Tape Patrol and ask what that means. |

Eh? I haven't done that in a couple months now. I listened when you first started ranting about it. Jitka... well, Jitka's an anomaly in the space time continuum. I don't really believe he understands what he reads. Or maybe he can't read. None of us are really sure.

I've been sick for...ohh....aboot the past week now. It's killing me appetite, and it's only adding to my excessive depressive state of mind. The good thing is that the more depressed I am, the more I write my new story. So in other words, it's good that I feel like the utmost crap......yay......? |

My latest peeve is having long, thick hair in the summer. It makes the back of my neck unbelievably hot, so I have to clip it up, and THEN it starts drooping. |

Oddly enough, despite the obvious, my hair doesn't bother me at all this summer. I'm no hotter than usual. The only thing is that my hair isn't as curly because of the humidity. Knots in my hair on the other hand......hurt.....yarr....
I am NOT talking aboot Don Knotts people.... |

Peeve: Noob-bashing. I know it almost never happenes here, but I hate forums that do that. How will your society get better if you never welcome new members? Like this forum? I mean, if this forum had noob-slapped me when I joined, I may never have become this contributor. |

Another old pet peeve: People who insist on putting two spaces after each period, even though they're not using a typewriter or a monospaced font. Folks, this is the 21st century; you're not in Mrs. McOlderson's keyboarding class anymore. When was the last time you saw a newspaper article or novel written like that? |

Ugh. My mom does that, too. Also, she double-clicks on hyperlinks, and clicks on menus (like if she were in Start, she would CLICK on Programs) and I'm always like, "YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT!!!" and then she calls me Miss Correct-All, and Correct-All is a brand of laxative, so while that's funny, it's all g'arr-ish. |

Rofflage. My dad likes to double-click on links and things, and sometimes it's annoying. Miss Correct-All. |

Old Habits Die Hard. As much as I try, I can't bring my self to put 1 space after a sentence. You can't tell from the web, as the browser automatically removes the 2nd space, but I can't not put that second space. Physically Impossible. It's more likely that I will come to love Mondongo Sancochao than reconfigure my thumb to stop double-clicking on the space key after the period. It would take an entire brain-rewiring. Pet Peeve: People who insist that if I try Mondongo enough times, I will learn to like it. I don't want to learn to like it. Chicken feet? Fine. Malta? Fine. But I don't want to learn to like stewed intestines and honeycomb tripe. |

Yeah, this is pretty much exactly the same habit I have that I can't get rid of either. I never even really noticed that web browsers automatically remove that 2nd space until you just brought that up. Hmm... Another peeve on here: People who don't take their turn in H*R Clue (or any other games here). Seriously, that game was moving along fine for two rounds, and now all of a sudden, the first three players all forgot to take their turn. Urggh - it kinda takes a bit of the fun out of it.

Second round is too early to forget. |
