    MacBook Pro 15" 2011 vs. HP dv6tqe Quad Edition

    @CrystalShadow, well I don't have a problem with the HP build quality. I've heard people say some of the same things that you just did, but as I said earlier, I own(ed) an HP dv2000 that gave me a good few years, without many issues.

    MacBook Pro 15" 2011 vs. HP dv6tqe Quad Edition

    So my old HP dv2000 busted itself yesterday, and I'm in the need for a new laptop, yes a laptop, because I need the mobility. I wanted something that will last me a good few years, with few to no problems. In a year, I will go to college, so definitely this computer will need to last (being...

    What's this obsession with "classic" Windows?

    I remember when Vista and 7 came out, many were complaining how they hated the look of it and wish they could opt for a W2k look. I've also seen many businesses (such as schools, post offices, and grocery stores) with brand new computer decorated with a "Windows Vista/7" sticker, yet the OS...

    What state are you from?

    @Grim, you know I read the title of the thread thinking 'there's no way he's from Washington', then I opened it, read the first sentence, and guess what I learned? xD Btw, a big hallow from Olympia :)

    A question for Facebook users

    There's this girl on my Facebook, who's just so full of anger. Every single status update has to do with "people's bullshit", "backstabbing ways", "fakeness" etc. I actually can't remember a single 'happy' status that she's ever posted.

    Literary Pet Peeves

    There's two types of first person I've noticed, and one of them irritates me so much, that if I find a book written with it, I won't give it even a chance to prove itself worthy of my eyes. The one I like: 'Kill me now', I said in a half jokingly, half serious tone. I then went to my bed, and...

    Does being suspended wreck your chances of getting into college?

    So a month ago, I got into a minor altercation with a person at school, which resulted in a 1 day suspension for me. I'm a junior in high school, and have never been suspended before. EDIT: Typo fixed, lol it's been a long week.. 2ND EDIT: I'm not in junior high, I'm a junior in high...

    Bad habits you aren't quitting

    Like lots of people have been saying, nail biting. I've been doing it since I was 2. And in all honestly, a 15 year old habit is really hard to break. I've tried to stop a couple of times, once I let my nails grow out for a month, but then the urge to bite just got too big, and before I...

    Poll: 80% of what you learn in school is useless?

    The thing is what you actually use and what you don't that you learn in school varies from person to person because of interests and whatnot. The guy on my left might be fascinated with science and want to be taught everything the teacher knows about it, while the guy on my right might be...

    Bad a structured writing?

    So for my AP Lang. & Comp. class, we have to write an essay comparing the effectiveness of Hawthorne and Miller to convey the belief that the "individual conscience should always supersede the rule's of one's religion" through use of pathos. We have to use 2 quotes from the books The Scarlet...

    Is Bones deteriorating in quality?

    /rant The first 3 seasons of that show were AMAzing, but it seems to have gone downhill recently. The writing I've noticed, has become awkward, with the characters frequently talking about sex and their love lives, but in a "let's take a trip back to high school, lawl!" kind of way, also...

    When and why did nerd culture start to become "cool"?

    You ever see those people walking around with big glasses, no lenses, and tape in the middle of them? Some of them wear really long socks, that go up to their knee caps. I've even seen people tuck in their shirts, and pull their pants up way high. In fact, it's become such a "trend", for...

    What's with all the insane douchebaggery?

    So I know this girl, we'll call her Jane. Jane has a certain way of going about life, that just spells d-o-u-c-h-e-b-a-g. She's also not alone, many people fit into the mold she has imprinted on Earth. She claims originality, though she isn't for these reasons -She takes pics in black and...
