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.

I'm sick of people not LISTENING to me.
I always read shit that everyone else wants me to read. Same with movies, games, and all that other shit.
Shit people have wanted me to look up:
500 days of Summer
Repo! The Genetic Opera
Twilight (lol)
House of Night
True Blood
Vampire Diaries
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
House of 1000 Corpses
L4D
Lost
A shitton of Lifetime movies my mom wants me to watch, whether I want to or not.
Shit I've asked people to watch/play/read politely:
The Path
Donnie Darko
American Mcgee's Alice
Dexter
It pisses me off. Every one of my friends ignore me when I suggest something. Yet everyone demands I watch all of their shit. Now, I loved most of what my friends suggested to me, but that's not the point. We were deciding on a movie to watch, and when I said Donnie Darko, she immediately was like "We're not watching that shit."
RRRAAAGEEE! Next time they recommend me something, I'll reply "fuck you, I'm not watching that shit."

FIGHT THE POWER!!! FIGHT THE POWER!!! Tell them to blow it out their ass.
Repo was the only thing worth watching in there anyway.

SEQUEL?! I'd better look into that.

I liked True Blood (hence my signature). They're not Sparklepires, and actually drink human blood instead of being pussies. Lost is okay, the scenery is pretty as hell, but I'm sorta bored, as I'm uber ADD sometimes.
Oh yea, I think I recommended Dollhouse too. Even if it was anti-feminist.

House is really good. It fails after the third season though.

Re: I'm sick of people not LISTENING to me.
I used to love House. I'm not sure what's been happening lately, because a few months ago it was full of fillers and I was all "meh".

I was going to, but I've been busy... and I'll just get this outta my system now. Damian is cute... if not a complete ass.
Oh, and I finally found a series where the show was better than the book. True Blood. (I read the books, they were good, but not as good as the show... it got too confusing, with the faeries, werewolves, shifters, vampires, witches, etc. it made me wonder how the fuck humans could overlook something like that.)

When people do stuff like that to you it's a sign of a controlling person. They want you to do everything for them but invest no mutual time in your interests. Maybe you should reconsider if they are your friends or not. I cannot tell you how much I have had this happen to me. The only person who watches anything with me is my boyfriend.

Re: I'm sick of people not LISTENING to me.
Dexter is by far the best TV series I've ever seen. Then maybe the Stargate series or Burn Notice, all quite nice. I can't wait for the next season of Dexter to come out!
CrayolaColours, do you live in the England or Canada or something?

Re: I'm sick of people not LISTENING to me.
Haha, The Mentalist was awesome. I still love the part in Dexter where Doakes says "You creep me out" and Dexter thinks "In a building full of cops, doakes is the only one I creep out"
I may of got that quote wrong, but you get the idea
"If at first you don't succeed; call it version 1.0"

No. Why would you ask that?
I watch Dexter on Showtime... well, I did. It got shut off. So now I watch it on sidereel.

Never watched Dexter, so Dexter's Lab wins by default.

Re: I'm sick of people not LISTENING to me.
I asked because you spelled your name with a u (Colours), and the U.S. doesn't. I don't know about other countries however.
