Quote from: "Cecilie"But being 14 sucks.
Quoted for accuracy.

I know this is a cliche, and every teenager feels this way, but I hate still living with my parents.
Living alone is pretty sweet. If you don't mind doing the dishes and laundry and that sort of thing. Too bad I'll have to move back in with my mom later this year... (I'm 17 btw)

All cars in the UK have to be checked for road worthiness once a year starting on the third anniversary of the day they start being used. Its called an MOT test. Mine was due on the 21st and so I booked it in today. The test only costs £35 and I had a discount voucher so I was going to pay just £20! Of course the garage can find things that need to be repaired/replaced so one always ends up needing some work done. So one braces oneself for the call along the lines of 'Sorry sir but your car has failed the test and we are going to have to bleed you dry to get it back on the road.'

So how much do you think the actual bill was?

I was expecting some huge number, but I guess that was the point.

Quote from: "LegendarySandwich"I also wish there was a law in place that prevented me from getting bad grades, so I would have more motivations to be a good little boy and do my homework.

go out and be a 14yo kid...enjoy it
But being 14 sucks.
Yeah I (barely) remember being 14, it sucked balls. The only thing that might have made it a little bit tolerable is if I'd gotten some tattoos on my face and neck.

Yay! They've finished filming Iron Sky!

And at te same time I don't know should I laugh or cry,, bacuse some jacka$$ (finn too, damnit) wrote an article that basicly made it look like we finns somehow worshiped the nazis and that is the only reason that we could make such a film... :rant:

I just wonder when are we going to get rid of this decades old Soviet propaganda, since that's all that it is. I'm getting tired of hearing and, unforntuantely, I hear that crap on both sides of the border. Oi, it's the 21st century, not 1950's! :hide:
