Guys help,
I want to ask this girl out but shes shy and awkward and so am I. Someone told me she likes me but I don't know whether to trust this information and shes an awesome friend and I don't want to fuck it up by asking her out. But she is cute and smart and everyone thinks we should go for it. I don't want to fuck up an awesome friendship like I did with another awesomely hot girl.
just do it.
I'd explain why you should, but I don't know how to do it in an upbeat way
[QUOTE=wewt!;42164180]Instead of red rags, why don't you use gloves?[/QUOTE]
Because there's certain machines than you can load material into that will potentially grab gloves, pulling your whole hand in rather than just grab the rag and pull it in.

I swim through the rain.
You could drown.
I sit here and read about rain days and heat days and I really just wonder to myself, 'where were these in Florida?'. The only time we were given days off from school were when there was literally a hurricane on top of us.

We hardly get snow days in Michigan because we're so prepared for the snow. As soon as snow starts falling the salt trucks and plows mobilize.
Although, on the western side of the state, they're smart and use sand instead of salt, and it doesn't destroy your car.
my district's superintendent in middle school was really loose with the off days
once in 8th grade i got 2 days off in a row for cold (it wasn't actually that cold)
the current superintendent literally gives no shits about any weather and the only reason why schools are closed today is because shit's flooding everywhere in the district (except not where i live!!!)
I remember one year in high school our superintendent got in trouble because he didn't close school on a day where there was literally 3" of ice on the roads and a bus slid into a students car and there were some fairly serious injuries.

this much rain
God damn I need a truck in a hurry but it's hard or impossible to find them in my general area but when I do they're usually "herp derp 10 year old rusty truck 20k or 17k bluebook value!!" even though most Tacoma's aren't worth anywhere near their bluebook value.
To add shit to the fire, the Volkswagon I drive to work my Grandmother lends me is now being contested, because apparently my Uncle "needs" it even though he has a Tundra and a station wagon. My Mom gave him her old Pathfinder once and he sold it to his ex who broke it, like, last time I saw it, it was stalling and dying right there in the driveway and that car had been babied it's entire life. This is the same uncle that steals shit, like copper piping from my barn and dremels from the workshop when no one is looking.
I don't think my Grandmother will give it to him, but she's got dementia.. she's not always thinking straight so I'm a bit worried. Also I doubt I can heat my barn in a way that makes it livable this Winter which means I have to move in with my Sister until Summer and if I do that I need a vehicle to get to work.
My truck literally picked the worse fucking time to die.

robot bomb=buzzbomb
ok so how's this
[quote]
German scientists, sensing the fall of the Reich, departed in several U-boats and headed for the Japanese mainland. There, they share scientific secrets and finish developing their A-bomb before we do. They use it to wipe out the resistance on the Chinese mainland, and make their way to Manchukuo, where there are still serviceable factories and many raw materials to be mined.
Manchukuo becomes home to the Japanese generals and politicians, as well as many advanced scientific endeavors lead by the German refugees. The strain on the manufacture of provisions for the military leads to cheaper and less advanced weaponry and vehicles for each side. Armies of conscripts resort to trench wars on the Japanese mainland and Indochina. Many die of infection.
The reason why we don't use our A-bomb is because they already used theirs, and we did not know the range of their newly-developed V3 nuclear rockets. They didn't know the range of our rockets or bombers either, so the nuclear attack on mainland China is the only one to happen in this war.
This warfare continues until the year 1962. Eventually, a Japanese gas attack on Russia's leading figures kills Bulganin and the rest of the Russian figureheads, leading to new leaders being put in place by the US in secret.
The American and Russian leaders unite in an act of desperation, and their fighting forces form a strong brother-like bond. In a single year of Russo-American blitzkrieg, the Japanese Empire falls by the efforts of both the Americans and the Russians, as well as numerous other countries (Such as Independent Rhodesia, reformed European countries, and the UK). Finally, the Rising Sun sets in the year 1963 as the boots of the American Special Forces and the Spetsnaz GRU stamp on the neck of the Empire. World War Two ends, and a mostly united Earth rebuilds and sets its eyes on the stars.[/quote]
Rename nuclear rocket to atomic rocket
Sounds more retro this way c:
ok now that that section is good, time for section two
[quote]The USA and the Soviets help China and the damaged areas of Europe rebuild, changing borders and building infrastructure. Simultaneously, the Americans and Soviets run a one-man space race, in celebration of the new, peaceful world. Work is done quickly. Significant accomplishments are as follows:
>1970: First moon landing.
>1979: First reusable spacecraft created.
>1981: International Space Station project begins.
>1990: First SSTO shuttle built and launched.
>1995: ISS completed ahead of schedule.
>1997: First moon base, "Brighton Bay", begins construction.
>1999: Automated probes find water on Mars.
>2000: Lunar He-3 mining operations commence, bringing new methods of power and propulsion to spacecraft.
>2001: Brighton Bay completed.
>2010: Mars landing.
>2037: Mars base "Jamestown 1" undergoes construction.
>2049: USSS Prometheus launched, mission to Jupiter commences.
>2050: Jamestown 1 completed, terraforming of the Martian atmosphere begins.
>2052: USSS Prometheus vaporized in the asteroid belt. Mission failed.
>2052: Terraforming of Mars fails due to sun flares. Hundreds die from radiation poisoning and bad planning.
>2059: USSR launches Partisan 9, an incredibly advanced space ship. Second mission to Jupiter commences.
>2060: Domed cities kept safe by artificial magnetosphere generators are erected on Mars, colonization considered complete.
>2061: The United Nations/Planets of Terra is formed (UN/POTERRA).
>2063: Partisan 9 reaches the Jovian system on schedule, discovers life on Europa and Callisto. Small automated outposts are established on Ganymede, mining begins.
>2066: Partisan 9 refitted and sent into permanent Jovian orbit, and used to establish the first of many "skyhooks", large spherical space stations home to hundreds.
>2079: All celestial bodies out to the Jovian system has been colonized to a certain extent. The human race is a prosperous and peaceful one.
>2088: The Tannhauser Ring, a large circular station orbiting Jupiter begins construction.
>2109: Tannhauser Ring completed, becomes a great economical hub.
>2110: He3-Deuterium fusion discovered, revolutionizes the power industry and largely ending poverty.
>2120: Instant communication invented, based off of quantum entanglement. Revolutionizes everything.
>2135: Halley's comet is brought out of orbit, given weights to alter its mass, and slammed into Mercury at a 34* angle, causing it to be tidally locked with the sun. It is subsequently colonized in the habitable zone between the frigid dark side, and the fatally hot bright side.
>2145: Mercury is now an economic powerhouse, and source of 90% of the raw materials used for spaceships, skyhooks, and all other space-borne constructs. The Hermian Union is established, and controls the flow of raw materials to and from Mercury for export and processing, respectively.
>2150: Hermian Union constructs railguns to fire raw materials into orbit, has potentially infinite range depending on the time of year.
America, the USSR, and China are three superpowers, both politically and economically. Industrial meccas like Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, and Independent Rhodesia are generally the ones responsible for building ships, stations, and other large projects for the UN/POTERRA.[/quote]

I'm going to talk to the High School tomorrow about cutting me a deal for graduation early or I'm going to have to drop out and get a GED. Being surrounded by such mediocrity makes me suicidal by the spring semester and I've already begun to feel I'd rather die in a car crash than go to class.

I'd have had an associates degree by now if I had dropped out my 10th year. I've been in honours classes the entire time and the instances of watching teachers tell kids completely wrong information on a day to day basis doesn't help me want to stay.
I'm assuming you're a senior now?
[QUOTE=felix the cat;42168969]I'm assuming you're a senior now?[/QUOTE]
Yep. I'm honestly unable to get up in the morning and feel going there is at all a valuable use of anyone's time. I'm trying to see if I can graduate this semester instead, but I honestly would rather go to jail than face another year at this hell hole. They screwed over my credits from being able to graduate last year, my 11th year. They screwed me over a lot as far as my education goes. I'm just tired of being forced to take it in the ass when I know I can make a change to the situation.
and now the third
[quote]In the summer of 2191, the colonies of Europa, Ganymede, and numerous skyhooks in the Jovian system declared independence from the United Nations of Earth, due to a tariff on Hermian goods and materials. This lead to the First Solar War, a swift conflict fought purely in space. The Jovians united and began hastily refitting cargo ships and space-liners for military application.
The UN/POTERRA sent a section of their Hermian-piloted fleet to the Jovian system, and subsequently kicked the Jovian's teeth in with nukes and mass drivers. The JCON surrendered, but to prevent this from happening again, the UN/POTERRA wrote up a treaty to allow the illusion of independence from Earth politics. This treaty was called the Tannhauser Treaty of 2201. This formed an alliance between the tight-knit Earth nations, the united Jovian and Hermian systems, and granted the Martians unwarranted independence. This created the TASEN, the Tannhauser Alliance for Solar Entities (Also known as the Solar Assembly).

and the fourth, which details FTL travel and shit
[quote]During a hundred year period of peace and technological advancement, a Swiss scientist by the name of Agon Schwartzendruber discovered a form of exotic matter with negative mass as the result of a particle acceleration experiment. This exotic matter was dubbed the "Agon particle". Agons can be created by colliding a mass of Ununtrium-286 with a cloud of superheated Fermium-257 that equates to exactly half the mass of the Ununtrium-286 while in a microgravity environment. Unless created inside a sealed container, it will launch itself as far away from matter with positive mass as it can go, and is un-retrievable. The Agon particle was then used in the Soviet scientist Dr. Ivan Chesnokov's dangerous warp-drive experiments.
The result of twenty years of testing was a device similar to an Alcubierre drive, where space is expanded in the rear of the drive, and contracted in front, except on a much larger scale than predicted. This device is called a "Jaunt drive". It creates a warp bubble seven miles in diameter at the least, and can expand as far as the microgravity environment goes until destabilizing in larger gravitational fields like planets.
It was immediately applied to interstellar travel after its invention in 2239. The power required for a trip between systems is enormous, and requires a very large fission reactor running at least Plutonium-239 through a liquid metal fast breeder reactor. The more reactors you have, the larger the bubble can be. This concept is applied in "Jaunters", large star-faring ships of at most ten crewmembers, and generally around five miles long. They have a large Bussard scoop/real space projector on the front end, ion engines in the back, two mile of heat radiators running from the ion nozzles to the warp field generators, then a mile of empty space held together by scaffolding until it reaches the habitation rings, astrogation computers, and Bussard scoop/RSP assembly. The Bussard scoop is just a large cone three hundred feet long with wires poking out an additional two hundred and fifty feet. The "real space projector" is a tube that fires a bottle of negative mass, which then explodes, spreading Egons which are kept in place by the electromagnetic field generated by the Bussard scoop. The negative mass is then projected around a monopolarized magnetic field, with the Bussard scoop as the singular pole.
The negative mass has a half-life of three years, restricting FTL travel to the Milky Way only. At maximum warp as of 2299 (2201 light years per week [2201 lyP/W]), we can traverse the average distance between stars (approx. 4,150 ly) in two weeks time. Many systems (like Sol and Alpha Centauri) are separated by distances of only one digit (Sol and Alpha Centauri are 4.2 ly apart), allowing a trip between the stars to be only hours in length when at a more stable, economical warp speed (such as 200 lyP/W).
The empty space is filled with many smaller ships, which are then taken with the jaunter in its bubble of real space. This is this advancement that takes humanity into the stars.
In addition, each jaunter takes four years to build, with most of that time being the construction of the RSP assembly.

Dropping out senior year to get a GED is beyond retarded. Yes high school sucks, but it doesn't suck that much. If you simply cannot endure one more year at most, you're going to have a very hard time of life. Things improve in college but there is a lot of the same issues you have there as well, and in the job world.
Trust me, you would not rather spend a year in prison than one more year in high school.
My senior year is going to be a breeze.

Pretty upset today, lost my iPhone 5 at school. Took it out during 2nd period to check the time and left it on the table when I left. Didn't notice I had left it until after 3rd period. I went back to the teacher's classroom and she didn't find it and said nobody said anything about finding a phone. So I'm pretty much screwed. My Mom is paying for it through her work's discount 2 year contract so I'm going to be dead for losing it.
