Shame you started the thread after the most recent series had just finished. Nevermind My favourite comedy about these days.

What Would You Use If Someone Broke Into Your House

I'd bust the gimp mask out. They'd run like f**k. -
Tell me about it. I have an exam on genetics this Tuesday. I missed 1/3 of my lessons relating to it and I've done one hours work outside the lessons. Doesn't put me in good steed.

How about a website dedicated to nipples?

Teenage Angst Communal Agony Aunt Thread

Ah but the question is, if you ended up in a relationship would perhaps another (unseen in the context of friendship) side of her 'pop' out? Like a bad fart in an enclosed, unventilated space? I think for a lot of women, relationships are their hobby like trials is ours. Once the game has commenced, the moulding and shaping of you into an ideal man begins. She will right your wrongs. Of course I'm playing a stereotype for amusments sake but I'm sure there's some truth to what I'm saying Buggar I'm starting to sound like a cynic. -
Nice photos Jimmy. Where your face shows you look positively shocked.

Teenage Angst Communal Agony Aunt Thread

women = mental beautifulness I guess that's oxymoronic and perhaps they would lose some of their beauty if they weren't so incomprehensibly mental. Perhaps though I've just been a bit unlucky with my choice of women. Alas. Anyone met women who don't try and impose their will onto you and change you into what they "know" you "should" be? -
If you Swindon chaps end up not going and you ride Swindon instead, lemme know. I'm back

Will not be there now unforunately. I've simply got too much college work to do and as deadlines are nearing, I have to make the sensible choice that doesn't make the last year of study pointless. Have an enjoyable time the rest of you though

I used to think that having a girlfriend who was into all the same activities as myself, such as trials would be good. Then I realised, as was said to me also, there would be no escape if that was the situation. Trials is my time to recover Fair play though. I still have maximum respect for any lady that is involved in sport, especially trials

Darren Brown is an Atheist and a Realist. His intention is to show you how real something can seem yet actually be fake. He usually does a bloody good job from what I've seen!

Really liked that. I also thought the standing around bits made sense - made the film more contextual. Riding was varied and despite my reservations about the style as music, it seemed to fit none the less. Good job and, I think, a progression from your previous film.

Superb parody. Let the violence ensue.

My penis is out of my trousers, whatever that means?

I have nothing but love for that dog. He's one of my pill dropping club buddies.

This dog took drugs and look what happened to him.

What do you actually mean though? If I take drugs am I not alive? My high is one of death if it's not life? Such a vague cliche that nearly makes enough sense to operate as a form of propaganda. Drugs are a part of life if you take them - life is in fact a prerequisite for taking drugs! You don't see a stone ingesting ecstacy and then dancing around the room telling you how much he loves you. You seem to think then that all the activities you engage in are life and all drug activities are something else? I could be much more pedantic but I won't. edit: I've noticed my patience wearing slightly. Apologies to you Fugley if I seem harsh.

Remember that the idea of positives is just your construction. Others, like myself find more positives (which I perviously listed) like the development of intellectual understanding from the experiences that arise on the drug experience. Also I sometimes find ecstacy as therapuetic, reminding me of a more positive way in which to view my non-drug existence. And anyway, even if it were true that there was only one benefit from drugs for all people, that doesn't say how much pleasure or how meaningful that is positive is for certain individuals over others. You talk of trials being good for you well my back mostly but other parts of my body are pretty f**ked from riding trials. It's no divine activity. Basically, everyone does the standard thing where they project their own desires onto other people and expect others to work under those same terms. We seem unableto think of others as possessing a separate subjective basis that finds different enjoyment from different things. We want everyone to be just like us. The situation is this sense though is relative, not universal.

This is an emotional moment for me

And even more amusingly, we have tobacco above cannabis, ecstacy and LSD! I suspect though that some people will look at this graph and still be unable to remove the negative connotation of those substances which easily get the label of drugs. The word is too loaded to allow for rational thought. People really need to take a moment and THINK about their thinking. Are you making sense? Or are you a robot of the conditioning you recieved from anti-drug propoganda at school and on television?

Interestingly I remember seeing a government sponsered study about a year ago regarding which drugs were the most dangerous on a physical/psychological/social basis. If I remember correctly, it went something like heroin, cocaine, alcohol and then everything else... like ecstacy. Yet alcohol still remains acceptable and we even go as far as to extend the hours which it is accesible - I don't have a problem with that but it illustrates a point. I think it's a very dangerous and common problem of this society to assume that the people who call the shots (the authorities of some sort) really know what they're doing and aren't behaving as irrationally and stupidly as the rest of us. If you want an amusing description of the the history of the criminalising of cannabis in America search on e-mule or something similar for "Noam Chomsky + cannabis". Not only does be describe how stupid the process of deciding the dangers of cannabis but he also mentions a typical trend of the criminalising of the substances which the poor inudlge in. At one point in UK history supposedly Gin was illegal whilst all other alcoholol was not, Gin being the drink of the poor. Everyone is a fallible being operating not just rationally but also emotionally, presumptively and at least occasionally, stupidly. If the justification of ecstacy being illegal is that it is dangerous yet alcohol is considered more dangerous, then this is just evidence of a non-rational behaviour from our government, motivated by some other reason.

Appreciating some of the views put forward, especially those individuals who don't use drugs themselves but have enough of an open mind to accept other peoples choices to do so. My experiences of ecstacy have been both good and bad. The first time I did it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life to be honest. Words like euphoric and ecstatic are apt description. Your empathy and love for everything and everyone becomes rather intense. I didn't really have much of a comedown the first time despite taking five pills - I just felt a bit more tired than normal. I think drugs, in so much as they alter your perception to a larger degree than anything else you put in your body, can be very enlightening. They can teach you about how the way we see the world is relative to how we are at a certain time or who we are. They certainly did this for me. However, as I said, I've had some bad times. Awful come downs, mood swings, etc. but this was most likely based on the fact I had mental health troubles prior to my drug use. Although in some ways drugs reminded me that I could feel better than I did when depressed, they also tended to make the problem worse. If you do have mental health problems I don't really advise their use. Doing drugs with a healthy body and mind though isn't nearly so much of an issue. To be honest, I find alcohol causes me more problems these days. I do know people though who have had more serious problems with ecstacy but again this related to a prior disposition before taking the drug. In other words, not everyone has that disposition and not everyone has bad experiences with drugs. Like riding trials and pretty much all else in life, it's a gamble. What I find frustrating though is when people are willing to judge my whole being based on my drug use - a small part of my life. They've decided, absent of much or any personal experience, that what I'm upto is wrong and that consequently, I'm wrong. Although to be honest, I also understand that stance as I've been there, so I'm going to try my best not to judge back. Frustration will do

I'm not saying anything. Apart from that and this.
