RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

Also: I'll probably never have kids, anyways, thank god, they won't have to suffer then.

Also2: What you think about parents going through your stuff? I have pipe + other related shit in my drawer, if anyone ever wanders this far, I guess I'm dead. Hmmm..
I must move my shit. Aaaaaaand I'm getting downvoted, typical shitty reddit. Fgts.

Retarded reddit.

As Redditor I'd have to say subreddits with 100k - 1million subscribers should be avoided. 10k is a little of a exaggeration.

Congratulations humanity,because you refuse to let go of the old and evolve you actually make people believe in 2012. Not only that, but you're the only species on Earth that were able to make it possible, now we get to sit until we die because we couldn't get to Mars. We have failed as a society and don't deserve our gifts to survive for this long. Maybe this is why dinosaurs are extinct, we sure aren't any better than the dirt you say we're created from. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pla...DvwSOFto#! Noo

RE: Retarded reddit.

I don't do any drugs, but this reminds me of this time that I was playing with fire...

I had this plastic cup that was wet (but not filled) with isopropyl alcohol (70%). Then I lit it. It burned pretty blue that showed through the cup, but then the cup started getting hot. When I saw the cup starting to melt, I decided to blow it out. The thing is, when you blow into a container filled with flaming vapors, the flaming vapors come out at you. It was kind of the same effect that I'd expect from a small flamethrower. Except it was coming at me. I singed off my eyebrows and a good bit of my hair. But it wasn't over yet. Still recovering from being very close to 'on fire', I noticed that I still had a melting plastic flaming alcohol cup of doom. The next best idea was to wave it to try to get the flames out. This, of course, went very badly as well, and had the effect of spraying flaming alcohol all over the room. It went all over the (thankfully, nonflammable) wall and my neato wooden office chair. I somehow got the cup out, but the clean up was horrible. The whole house smelled like burning hair, the wall had black (from the charring paint) and white (from the alcohol bleaching) splotches, and the varnish on my chair was all bubbling up. With lots of Lysol air freshener and a few box fans, the house smelled OK again, but I just hope that nobody ever sees my splotchy wall or chair...

Tune in next week for another ... Stupid Story of the Week with CinnamonSynonym!!! (Maybe)

I guess it wouldn't have hurt to have had some precautionary actions taken before starting a fire inside a plastic cup?

Though once I burnt a napkin and when it was burning strongly, I tried to toss it out the door onto the concrete in the back. Unfortunately, I failed to take into account the wind and the napkin was blown back into the house still burning. Luckily the napkin turned to ash before touching anything.

I then proceeded to burn another and this time carried it outside with my back to the wind and let to fly. It was pretty fun.

Fire just never works the way you intend.

btw, i was telling my friends this morning about a picture i saw on reddit and one of my more idiotic friends said "nobody uses reddit" and so we got into a bit of an argument about how nobody visits it, yet it's ranked #136 (#163? just took a quick glance) out of 1 million top sites...then after him not giving up i pointed out how he worships false gods (he likes the norse gods and likes to say that we can't kill him because he is a god or the dragonborn)

I like reddit but I have to stick to the smaller subreddits. On any of the bigger ones, you get downvoted to oblivion for expressing your fucking opinion. I got tons of downvotes for saying "Well, I don't think this thing is that bad...". I mostly stick to 4chan anymore, the people there are actually allowed to have different opinions.

TL;DR: Most of Reddit is a hive mind, 4chan is somewhat better in that respect.
