[QUOTE=Zambies!;38469965] Apparently when I was four after 9/11 I'd ram toy planes into brick towers I built :suicide: :suicide: :suicide: :suicide: :suicide: :suicide: :suicide: :suicide:[/QUOTE] I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE GOING TO HELL FOR THIS, HALLELUJAH

[QUOTE=a dumb bear;38528841]I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE GOING TO HELL FOR THIS, HALLELUJAH[/QUOTE] In some bowling places there are these lego tables or whatever. Basically a table, with a hole in the center with bricks and 4 building pads. We built a giant tower and a plane through it. That was fun. Also lots of dicks have been built. Also, how the hell can you guys have no birthdays? It is like one of the funnest time of the year. Or well, a fun time. Even if it is in a bowling or in somebodys small home. My friend got 15, had a party. Not many people, like 6 maybe, but they had loadsofweed and had fun. Other friends is having a birthday soon, next week I think. Usually we blow up a shitton of fireworks then.

To be honest, it doesn't trouble me at all, although I was pissed when I didn't even get a birthday cake from my family 2 years in a row. :v:

Or are people who live in other states/countries and... don't really care. My family doesn't really care either. After being a recluse for a few years, you kinda resign yourself to loneliness.

Come on people, this thread is supposed to be funny, not depressing :(

[QUOTE=Yogkog;38530242]Come on people, this thread is supposed to be funny, not depressing :([/QUOTE] I once held a brief conversation with a guy as I was passing him going in to the bathroom at a park. I'm pretty sure it was just as awkward for him. It consisted of: Him: "Hey, how's it going." Me: "Pretty good, how about you?" Him: "Pretty good." And then I think he said something else, but this has been like 4 or 5 years ago so I can't remember. It doesn't seem like much, but it seriously felt like we would've continued the conversation if we could hear each other. We were both basically muttering the entire time.

So I have to play in the stands during football games because I'm part of our High School's marching band, and I decided "I'm going to actually contribute to the general sound of the band instead of hiding behind the other Trombones." So we go to play Dynamite (you know the one) and the Drum Major starts to conduct. I get ready to play the first notes of the song. Nobody else played them and I played both notes sharp really loud, so I sounded completely wrong and high pitched, even worse because nobody else was playing to compare to or hide under. I haven't played that loud since.

I stopped having birthday parties in 6th grade. I mean, why?

It's good to fill your early birthdays with joy, because the later ones suck. I'm only 21 and I've found this out through experience.

I haven't had one since after fourth grade. My sister still had them of course, and she is years older than me.

I was at school, I think it was eight grade. We were playing football"soccer" in our gymclass and I was the goalie or whatever it is called. Someone kicked the ball at me really hard and I did like this crazy matrix jump and kicked the ball straight into this huge school clock which had a glass cover. Yeah you know, the glass like exploded in all directions and people had glass in their hair and stuff, it was crazy and embarrassing. Why the fuck do they have glasscovered clocks in a gym? What the fuck Sweden.

Forgot to mention this earlier. I was signing up for our second quarter gym electives today, and I had to pick my third one out of: Badminton, Weight Room, Dance, and Basketball. Basketball, Badminton, and Weight Room were all full. You can guess which one I got stuck with.

Almost every gym I've been in (America) with a clock in it has a sort of metal cage surrounding the clock.

You guys actually had birthday parties? I've never had one. [editline]21st November 2012[/editline] come to think of it, I've never been to a party either

i had birthday parties up until i moved to the us for my 13th birthday or something i had invited about 15 or 20 people and none of the people i considered close friends showed up. after that i got the hint and stopped celebrating birthdays

[QUOTE=Rediscover;38536245]must not be good friends if you run out of stuff to talk about[/QUOTE] Yea. Me and her haven't known each other for long.

Agh, this thread has gotten sad :c I haven't celebrated my birthday in a organized party in like 2 years I think. It's too much bullshit for like 5 hours of fun. Now I mostly go out to town with a couple of my closest buds after school and play pool or if there is an option drink beers at someones place.

[QUOTE=rikimaru6811;38537509]Yea. Me and her haven't known each other for long.[/QUOTE] That happens a lot with me and a girl I've known for 5 years, we're just in pretty much completely different circles. I'm with the quiet kids, she's with the loud ones, and yet we're better friends with each other than anyone else. I just decided not to pursue her because our lifestyles are utterly conflicting (she's covered in tats and piercings and has gauges, ugh, and I felt bad telling her I wasn't thrilled with them when she asked after getting each, but we're honest with each other like that) and I think she feels the same way, though we frequently speak of romancing each other in jest.

Yet I still don't know what to say when I meet/see her :( Guess that's when you get for having too much in common.[/QUOTE] Ask her about her art. Ask her what drew her to art in the first place. Doodle her something. Ask her about her interests in video games, music, television... it sounds really cliche, but that really is how you deal with the problem of being 'too alike.' As you learn more and more about her tastes, you can go more in depth about them. If she likes something you know a bit about, ask her what her favorite part of it is. I know how hard it is to try and think of questions and things to talk about, - I'm actually the worst person to be friends with if you like constant contact, because I don't start conversations unless I specifically have something to tell you and typically don't have anything interesting enough to arbitrarily bring up to continue the conversation - but it's worth it to strain your brain a bit to do so.

This is from a month or two back, when college started two weeks ago. I was sitting in the back of my class, just browsing Facepunch on my laptop. I was reading through some posts and I wanted to take a quick look at my own profile so I figured I would just click on my username, except I accidentally clicked on the title Reag gave me (curse you for that). Needless to say that my laptop wasn't muted, but at like 30-40% volume. The entire back class heard it and bursted out in laughter, combined with some strange looks coming my way. I don't think my teacher heard it, since she was looking rather confused and had no clue why everyone started laughing. I spazzed out and wasn't able to react quickly. I was just sitting there, nailed to my chair, not knowing what to do.
