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.

inglorious bastards
its a good movie. its not historicaly accurate. but its cool to see that some units did that during the war. some parts are funny to depending on your sense of humor.
life is just blah blah blah. we hope for blah, and sometimes we find it. but mostly its blah. and waiting for blah. and hoping you were right about the blahs you made. and when you think you just got the whole blah damn thing figured out, and your surrounded by the ones you blah. death shows up and blah blah blah.

Re: inglorious bastards
basterds* is how its spelt
and brad pitt is fucking sexy.
no, i loved that movie. it was a really great experience going into the cinemas and watching it. i had a smile on my face the whole time, and that wasnt just because i was met with a good lookin' brad pitt, but also the storyline, characters, plot, movie techniques, script, those little parts that make you laugh, and brad pitt...oops i already mentioned him.
go watch it.

Re: inglorious bastards
Cool, I'll prob'ly rent it when it comes out on DVD, seeing as to how the ageist bastards prevent me from getting in.

Re: inglorious bastards
I really want to see it, if just for the angry Nazis and to see Brad Pitt acting all badass in his Nazi-beating up-ness.
'NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN!'
'Oh Yes Yes Yes Yes!'
I like my Brad Pitt badass rather than just an annoyingly goodlooking male romantic lead.

Carla Franklin may be a whore. She may be a wonderful, kind, moral woman. Seeing as I don't know her personally, I cannot know for sure. However, I find her actions (suing Google, requesting the personal info of her critics, getting angry over random internet idiocy that she should ignore and be bigger than, trying to get this site in trouble because of a few users' commentary on the situation, etc.) pretty ridiculous and unwarranted. If she didn't want people to to be talking about/judging her, well 1. that's impossible, she's a human, and 2. she shouldn't have been a model or agreed to be on film. AND 3. she DEFINITELY shouldn't have sued Google and made all this fuss over a few random idiots whom she probably won't ever know expressing their opinion. Mmkay? MMKAY.

Re: inglorious bastards
I think Brad Pitt is under rated as far as male opinion goes, girls love him oviously, but he has always been a good actor and there are WAY to many stereotypes about him. ok, so he married Angelina for the press attention, but hey, thats life in showbiz. get with it or get out.

Re: inglorious bastards
Great Movie. I personally love Terentino films. I think I might actually buy this one rather than download it.
Whilst some work diligently there are those who ask why. I am one of them

This has been a test of the emergency pointless argument system. Had this been a real pointless argument, someone would have been called a facist.
Ceiling Cat: For that you need to wear a fursuit, though.
Inside sources say that Carla Franklin has had more dick in her than a public urinal.
