Ah! IT'S A PINK ELEPHANT! And it's MINE

And by "we" I mean "my sister, Theresa and Melly."

So the Gang was outside painting. Ms Clark comes out.

Melly (expecting her to say no): Can I paint a heart on your car?
Ms Clark: Sure!
Theresa: *goes a-painting*
Melly: ... woah.

So they paint, as Ms Clark and Mr Plewis watch.

The first paint strokes!

IB kids are so NOT gangsta that they can't even spell "gangsta".

More damage.

A culprit!

Considering Mr. Plewis is an english teacher, this must've made him cry on the inside.

You know what's going through Danny's mind: W. T. F.

Plewis practices gangster...ing.

...and Ms Clark does a booty shake?

Yes. Yes it is.

Complete with Melly's handprint!

Doubt begins to creep onto the artists' faces.

...and Ms Clark's. Also, Theresa practices her angry white trash face.

WTF!

Student!WTF!

Plewis's tattoo. He claims the reference is from A Winter's Tale:

Mam. There was a man,— 40
Her. Nay, come, sit down; then on.
Mam. Dwelt by a churchyard. I will tell it softly;
Yond crickets shall not hear it.
Her. Come on then, 44
And give’t me in mine ear.

Enter LEONTES, ANTIGONUS, Lords, and Others.

Leon. Was he met there? his train? Camillo with him?

Somehow, I am doubtful.

YES!

NO?

NO!

Stereotype Breaker Man pose!

Melly and Clark begin to pick fights!

Oh, BITCH!

And Melly just lost her Oscar.

Wrightliciousness!

"...WTF!?"

Plewis and Clark IN ACTION!

plewisXcore

Goodbye my "ganster" friend!

Stupidity spreads.

And a fragment of my sis's pretty painting, with garbage, for fun.

I've finally made a very important decision in my life.

I've decided to drop IB and move to BC to attend one of Canada's best clown schools -- I really need something to push me into a new mode of existence, and this is that chance... and it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance. I hope to be in BC by the end of April. Yes, this means dropping out of IB, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make to become a better person -- hell, more accurately, a different person. I don't like where am I, emotionally, mentally and all, and I need this jolt. More than any of you could imagine.

One of my greatest fears is being average... and I am average. Completely. All I want, really, is success, and although leaving all of you will kill me, it's what I have to do to be who I want to be. I'll only be an excrutiatingly long plane ride away, after all. :P

But jokes aside, it's very important to me. On such a day as this, I hope you all understand where I'm coming from. Look at your calendars and remember everything that has taken place today, all under the name of the first of April.

Finally, a not-annoying meme.

1. Shuffle your playlist.
2. Of the first 25 songs that come up, no matter how embarassing, put your favourite lyric on your LJ. Try not to include the title.
3. Open season to your f-list to see who can guess the most songs.
4. Strike the songs off as they are guessed correctly.

songs currently found:

~~1. "But not a real green dress, that's cruel."~~
2. "Here comes again / Blood in the vein / Seven a.m., the cars come"
3. "Has he taken any time / To show you what you need to live?"
4. "Fallen leaves in the night / Who can say where they're blowing"
5. "Your rule of thumb / Makes me worry some"
6. "The smell of hospitals in winter / And the feeling that it’s all a lot of oysters, but no pearls"
7. "Come down to my house / Stick a stone in your mouth"
8. [instrumental-- will add another song onto end to compensate for it. it's Count Basie's "Corner Pocket," by the way.]
9. "watching out for a sunny day / where there's love and darkness and my sidearm"
10. "Tattoos of memories / And dead skin on trial"
11. "Got that old black feeling and it's out to trace / Feels like..."
12. "But I'll be a bag of bones / Driving down the road alone"
13. "Keep coming up with love / But it’s so slashed and torn / Why why why?" (the lyrics I actually like best give it away :P)
~~14. "And even without clucking like a hen / Everyone gets noticed, now and then..."~~
15. "Too many mountains and not enough stairs to climb. / Too many churches and not enough truth. / Too many people and not enough eyes to see. / Too many lives to lead and not enough time."
~~16. "Black-eyed angels swam with me / A moon full of stars and astral cars / All the things I used to see"~~
17. "Gonna paint a wagon... gonna paint it fine... gonna use oil-based paint cause the wood is pine... (PonderOOOSa pine, wooo-ooo.)" (NOTE: the source is all that's needed for this one)
18. "Colored lights can hypnotize / Sparkle someone else's eyes"
~~19. "Let’s make the best of the situation / Before I finally go insane."~~
20. "So I turned myself to face me / But I've never caught a glimpse"
21. "My name was Brian McGee / I stayed up listening to Queen / When I was seventeen..." NOTE: only the source of the song needed.
~~22. "So that night, when he came home, I fixed him his drink as usual."~~
~~23. "I found an island in your arms / Country in your eyes"~~
24. "I know tomorrow brings the consequence At hand. / But I keep livin’ this day like / The next will never come."
25. [different version of 19, so another song tacked onto end]
26. "And these minstrels will soothe my jangled nerves... ... Have the Rolling Stones killed." Only source of song needed.
27. "If you ever get annoyed look at me I'm self-employed / I love to work at nothing all day"

and i added in a bonus for kicks, as it is witty. But only if you know the full song, so hah.

28. "Now that was the life / No worries no pain / Just stay in my place / and grow a little more each day"

Indian Architecture.

MORE Indian architecture. Also a good cultural site.

I also like Gothic architecture.

A lot.

Yes, because oh so many kids will try to learn about the differences between Romanesque and Gothic architecture. This link amuses me every time.

Speaking of Romanesque vs. Gothic...

I like the art there, but I disagree heartily with the premise.

More 'classic' art.

I'm tired of stupid people making arguments against gay marriage.

1. But my religion says...

nice as that is, this isn't a theocracy and your religion has no rights concerning the creation of laws. In a democracy, the majority rules; however, minority rights are guaranteed. If the government pulls a Laurier, however, it will end up that your church/temple/mosque/synagogue won't have to recognize gay marriage if they don't want to.

2. EEEEWWWWWWWWW

I'm going to ask Nizkor.org to put another item on their list of logical fallacies: "Argument from EWWW OMG LIKE TOTALLY GROSS."

Just because I don't want to see your fat jiggly hairy ass bobbing up and down as you screw whomever doesn't mean I need to make laws against it.

3. But it will destroy the 6000 years of sanctity of marriage/Marriage. Marriage is an unchanged institution for thousands of years, is under attack.

This, loves, is called "Appeal to Tradition." Basically, since everyone's been accepting something for however many years, it's good/better/whatever.

Now.

Galileo was put under house arrest for saying things we now know to be true. Crazy things, like the earth isn't the centre of the universe.

Yeah.

Just because for hundreds of thousands of years humanity thought that the Earth was flat and that everything revolved around them, doesn't mean that it was good to keep that idea just because it was traditional.

The Galileo thing also works as a good example against things like "Appeal to Popularity" (well, everyone else says it must be false!) and "Appeal to Authority" (God/the Church tells me it's not true, so...)

Secondly, marriage has not been unchanged for 6000 years.

Solomon had more wives and concubines than I could count.

Men could marry 12 year olds.

Arranged marriages.

Ban on interracial marriages.

The good old biblical, "Hey, we just conquered the city and she's a virgin! Sweet! *carries off virgin to become his wife*" and "You want to marry my daughter? OK. Pay up." ways of getting married.

4. Well, they CHOOSE to be that way!

Just like you choose to be heterosexual! In fact, I'm sure you could switch and choose to be homosexual! C'mon, test this theory out by fucking that guy!

No?

Why not?

I thought people could become ex-gays...

Hm.

5. Well, it's not natural...

Which is exactly why you have penguins having gay relationships for life, and proof of gay relationships back to ancient Greece.

and besides, this is known as the "Naturalistic Fallacy." Just because most animals don't, doesn't mean we should act like most animals by giving up your technology and tossing faeces at each other.

6. Anyone who says that a child should have both a mother and a father has very, VERY loose ideas on gender. Gender is how you behave/feel, usually compared to the fixed societal gender roles (masculine, feminine, androgyne).

My dad is the femmiest male I know. My mum is the butchest woman I know (personality-wise for both of them.)

Saying that, "Oh, well, children need to learn about gender" pisses me off for that reason, and because I hate the idea of gender roles. But I digress.

Any other effects you cite about gay children must be cited, and must not come from the AFA or any similar association, but from a scientist. Published in a scientific/sociologist and academic magazine. And thoroughly debated. Mainly because I want to see if there's any ends to the sentences you happened to leave out, such as... "predominantly caused by the treatment of children at school because of their gay parents..." just like I am searching for those studies at various universities.

Secondly: they can have children. it's called adoption or sperm bank, or even surrogate mums, just like how a lot of heterosexuals get kiddums.

7. Rape, dog-fucking and sheep-banging, oh my!

Lessee. The good ol' slippery slope argument.

Point the 1st:

No, it cannot lead to bestiality-style marriages between a man and his dog, because last time I checked, dogs have no legal standing to sign a marriage license.

Point the 2nd:

Scalia, you incompetent moron, masturbation is already legal, and I'm guessing 95% of adult humans have done it/does it, too. (that's another thing to find a paper on!) As is fornication.

8. "It's special rights-- they can always marry a member of the opposite sex!"

...*sigh.*

And finally, the infamous "I'm going to ignore the issue of transsexuals for now" argument.
