Are you insinuating that people who go to school are somehow harming the level of discussion on the boards?

Today! I'm bringing the little one to Kindergarten this morning, and the eldest is in 4th! 😱

there seems to be an influx of immature "rug rats" when school is done for the year that come here in the summer. thats all the OP was trying to convey.

you are correct, but it just seems like there is a huge number of kids (literally) that come on here and are not really mature enough for this type of enviroment.

Well, its one of those "cant see the forest because of the trees" situations.
When I take a step back and just read for a whole day (not posting) I realize that we are losing our marbles faster than ever.
Just about every issue we bring up has been discussed ad nauseum already. And the quality of discussion about those issues drops each time.

that's when it's time to take a break from the net.

Took a road trip to Vegas.
Spent money.
Now broke.
Net free.
Life better.

no, its just an increased volume

 

[krunchykrome]

OMG, two weeks......Nooooo!!!!

Im gonna be busy as sh!t. Five classes, working 18 hours per week at my internship, working out 4 to 5 days a week. And a girlfriend. jesus.

On a good note, and a little motivator for me, this is my last semester as an undergrad and I'll finally get my BS.

Well, that went off without too much of a hitch - the 4th grader walked to class, and we sat our Kindergartener down in his chair and let him color while we talked to his teacher. He was fine until we said "bye," then his hand shot up and grabbed mine for moment and he had that look of panic. I smiled and kissed his head and told him to have a good day, while I dragged my wife off before she could pick him up and run out with him. 😛

Oh, and I manged to avoid 7 cops near the school with my expired inspection sticker, only to pull up next to one at a light half-way home. I tried to get in some spot where he couldn't see it, but as I turned, he quickly switched lanes and flashed his lights. Bah! 🙁
