Wait, didn't you say you were hit by a speeding car?

Yes. About 60mph in a 30mph zone.

And to Ace: I was walking at the side of the road, me and another boy were both hit on the right side of our bodys. It hurt like crap and the car just kept on driving.

Um, a car going 5mph could break your arm. Something about this seems weird.

Two things:

1. I'm not good with estimates and such.
2. It 'nicked' on on the side. It wasn't as if it was coming straight at me.

And do you really think I would lie about something like this? I can't even type with my right hand!

Umm, Funky, I may not be a PH.D in physics but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that if you were hit by a car going 60 mph you would get more than a sore arm.

I geuss your right.

But the car was speeding: this was a road beside a school, were the speed limits are quite low (30mph to be exact).

Seriously, guys, why are you all suddenly on this witch hunt? He already admitted he was exaggerating, but we've no reason to suspect his story is an outright lie. There's infinitely many ways to get hit by a car, and it's entirely possible that he received minor injuries from a glancing blow from a car going 35 or 40mph. What do you possibly stand to gain from calling him a liar, and what coluld he possibly stand to gain from lying to you? Seriously, chillax.

Toast paint.

Peeve: Day after my wife buys me an Ipod Shuffle, work bans mp3 players with writable memory. Aka CD player that can read mp3 disks = ok, Ipod Shuffle = banned.

Peeve: Police (cops). The school I go to thought it was important to tell the police about me and the boy who got hit. And the police officer involved came to the comclusion that:
1. The car's wingmirror hit us.
2. The car was speeding
3. And the car was close the the curb because it was throwing a broken watch (wtf?) out of a car window, though the car still should have pulled over knowing it hit us.

I like how you left out the "n" there.

First off, let me say, we're all glad that you are ok Funkmaster. That's all that's important now.

As for a peeve, sleeping with your contacts in. Now I've done it about over a dozen times. I mostly do it when I'm at a friends and I forgot my contact case. Now in the morning, I wake up and can't see a thing, cause the contacts are all foggy. I hate it. That, and it kinda hurts too.

Ow, glad you're ok funkstar. Why would someone be throwing na broken watch out of a window anyways? Crazy guy.

I go to a lot of parenting forums bacause I'm interested in names and I absoloutley hate it wnen people say DH, DS, DD and the like. These acronyms stand for Dear Huband, Dear Son and Dear Daughter. Why can't they write the whole ting out and why do they feel the need to put dear in front of the words. It's just so freaking cutesy.

I say, if life gives you a lemon, wing it back and add some lemons of your own!

Peeve: Rain. Rain sucks. It gets me all wet waiting for the train. And, as an added bonus, rainy weather makes me depressed.

Rain until next Tuesday. Now is a good time for a parade. Of cars.

Yeah, it's been raining here a lot too. And I don't like it, because sometimes water will get in my car and soak my driver's seat, because there's something wrong with the window fixture thing.

Beyond the Grave · **Posted:** Wed Oct 12, 2005 3:19 am

I love rain. I like to sit in my room and listen to it. Rain has almost musical.

Peeve: Thinking that an appoinment is at one time when it is actually an hour later. Today I thought I had a doctor's appointment at 2:30, but instead it was at 3:30. I drove like a madman to get there onlt to find out that I had to wait for an hour.

Look on the bright side: You could have been an hour late.

Better early than never, like those crazy mixed up aphorism-ers always say.

Heh. I once showed up an entire day early for a conference. On the upside, I met a really cute receptionist and, being 200 miles from the office, still had the day off work.

Do you guys ever get the feeling that you are being watched?

I have, I am feeling it right now. It is freaking me out. :eek:

Didymus · **Posted:** Wed Oct 12, 2005 4:07 pm

Have you ever been watching someone, and suddenly they start to suspect you are watching them? I hate when that happens.

I always seem to be fllowed by a police car when I'm driving. It's like they're waiting for me to mess up and pull me over...yarr.....

Well, maybe if you didn't wave that falchion around and threaten to keel-haul those scurvy dogs, they wouldn't bother you.

Obomaru · **Posted:** Wed Oct 12, 2005 6:12 pm

Here's mine, I'll just give an example.
In my industrial arts lesson, I spent a lot of time to make a realistic wooden helicopter. And it was hard... Between two lessons I went to our school's cafe to buy some yummy chocolatey junk. And when I came back it was just gone and I got a bad grade for having done nothing.

That angered me greatly, but then I came home, ate noodles and felt good again.
(I don't know which smiley to put here: :mrgreen:

EDIT: Ok, I'll just solve things with an eekdancer.
TOTPD! :eekdance:

Jitka · **Posted:** Wed Oct 12, 2005 8:39 pm

Here's a peeve: Today I was in the library in school, using the computer, when we were all told we had to leave. Why?

Bees. A LOT of bees.

You should have seen it. There were bees literally swarming over the skylights in the library. One girl got stung, and there were more, younger kids panicking, so we all had to leave. They must have a hive in the walls somewhere. Anyway, it'll probably be a while before we can go back into the library. At least not until the end of the week.

Bees, man. Bees.

That happens all the frickin' time.

Let me say this, Speeding tickets suck. I had to pay $$145 for mine. But the plus is, I don't speed anymore, at at least the cops don't know I do.

Mr. Sparkle · **Posted:** Thu Oct 13, 2005 9:35 pm

Ack, I'm so tired of my homeroom, sure the teacher is nice to me in particular, but the kids that surround me are all, well, retards, sorry, it's so descriptive of them. They are all in the lowest classes and have to have special teachers make sure that make sure that they are on task. And I barely get anything done. Sorry if that decribes anyone here.
