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.

RE: TheLiberal is now BritishButterfly, ask away.
We had to make butterflies for Holocaust Remembrance Month, and a friend of mine joked about 'a British butterfly'. Hence the butterfly drawing and name were born.

The great Jewish conspiracy. As if they're the only ones to ever be killed in number...
Anyways...What color would a "British butterfly" be and why?

Yes.

====
1) It is decorated with the top wing being a British flag (one on both sides) and the original British flag on the bottom (same).
2) Primanti Sandwich. IF you don't know it's capicola, egg, coleslaw (not creamy), fries on Italian bread. Pittsburgh specialty.
3) Yes.
4) Eh. Pretty good.

If you could resurrect 3 times, at any age and future time(can't resurrect backwards), what would you use them for?
(while dead, you have the ability to be like a ghost and see/hear everything and be anywhere...without needing to get a visa or pay ridiculous airline prices)
