Never in my Life...

First topic message reminder :

I have never scored below a 70% on any school related assessments....
https://2img.net/h/oi58.tinypic.com/donrxe.jpg

^It's only a practice assessment of the state exams but only 2% of the difficulty of the actual stat exam. Statics clearly shows that it's not easy at all, even for a practice assessment which means the state exams are even more complicated then this stupid 15Q practice exam I took.

No wonder why 95% of my school still can't pass the Algebra state exam for the past 3 years....

Lol it's not that confusing, it's just the diversity of what people call it now-adays as the English language is constantly changing.

For me its something like

Primary/Elementary School - Age 4-10 (K-5th grade)
Junior High/Middle School - Age 11 - 13 (6th - 8th grade)
Senior High/High school - Age 14 - 17 (9th - 12th grade)
College/University - Age 18+

constantly changing??? really???

Ok, English itself is not quite 'constantly' changing but more of the area based "language".
-Vocabs
-Teachings
-Pronunciations
-Grammar
-Spelling 
-Slangs

There's more but I don't have time to list more lol but it's more of the area you grew up/live in that makes the English language more diverse which is why English is one of the top 3 most difficult language to learn. 

So for example, me I live around dutch people so I never understand when they talk to me because I never really grew around them for long to comprehend. Though they don't understand me either because I struggle to make th, double l's, w, er sounds (more of my problem/culture thing but you know if you talked to me on skype) but it can make the word sound completely different.

Ah, whatever. Google translate.

And FYI: Me and everyone else on this site grew up on opposite sides of the Atlantic and we still speak the same stuff :D

Google translate isnt good enough >.>

I don't speak the same as you :P

I don't think some people here do :P

Ya, but mario's primary language is Portuguese, not English.

Whereas for Americans and English, English is the primary language and we do speak pretty much the same. Just the occasional word or phrase we don't know.

What happened if I said English wasn't my first language? :P

You are american :P

umm, idk?

I think nat was born outside the USA

You think? Come on Dan... I'm not an American born lol tis why I hate America...jk

Guys dont hate on america, america just has a thing with assimiliating everyone that goes there and transforming them into gunshooting-mericans. Also if you like dont like maths maybe IT isnt the best since its pretty maths heavy

I don't hate America.

That said, the US Army does have a self glorified hypocritical mission to police the world, and this is what annoys many other people.

tbh, nobody in Britain really cares because Britain used to the exactly the same thing 100 years ago and UK and USA have practically the same laws and ideals (Except on guns).

Britain has this ideal at the moment, where most people feel ashamed of our heritage with two world wars and the Empire.

I'm not one of those people, but there are loads of people who feel that way, and thats why Britain is very lenient at the moment with foreign affairs.

Yeah i agree, USA´s foreign policy can seems a bit  iffy, like with all the still recent coup attempts and anti-democrating powers, but that was during the cold war, a life or death scenario, right now they just need to chill on their anti-terrorism and all will be right with the universe again. Maybe give it like 10 years to cool down.
But otherwise their current political gridlock america is still pretty amazing, even if its 200 or so years after inception, when was it 1780´s or so???
America i think is doing what other europeans aren´t willing to do, which is to intervene when the things go down and fast, in the beggining the UK and a lot of other european countries participated on the war of terror so it means that europeans might understand USA´s "empire making" though they keep shut about it bc of politics and public opinion´s. America has not had an empire like UK´s but it definetly had something to do with the native american´s current plight so it also has national "shame".

I don't hate America, hell I'm lucky I'm living here rather than a third world country...it's just how our country is governed that becomes problematic & makes us look bad at that standpoint. 
Like you said Dark, the US tries to be the police of the world which eventually backfires since we feel like we need to get into every countries' business, namely Russia, Korea, and China.

hey hey hey I was pretty sure you weren't american born Nat but I played it safe so If I got it wrong you wouldn't kill me for not knowing that detail of your life :p 
you mentioned it once like a long time ago 

also America the land and cities and most people are awesome, but the government suxx and yea we need to focus on fixing our own country instead of trying to fix all the others

Right, I don't even remember saying it so I wouldn't know lol :P

And keyword "most" people are awesome, just a little funny since each generation seems to be getting a little bit more careless.

I'm probably going to move to the UK or move to Mexico before the martial law starts. Be careful about what you say about our "wonderful" government, guys. They could brand you a terrorist and arrest you just for saying you hate our government. Maybe not now, but the future.

Something creepy I found out is that the government can hear/trace/whatever your convos even if the phone is off. 
I can totally see something like that happening though Red.

I hate the Illuminati. I wish I could get every single member of their sh*t group and throw them all in a hole and burn them to death. Everyone in that group is purely evil. I just realized how much Illuminati symbolism is in GTA 5 after restarting the game today. You walk in Franklins house and literally see a big framed picture of the pyramid with the eye of providence on it.

I saw that frame when I first entered the house.

so do you hate gta now red?

That doesn't mean I hate GTA. America is infested with those dicks especially in our government. Doesn't mean I hate America. I hate Illuminati.
