Thanks for the wishes. I got a gps from my family, spilt a beer all over a persons lap, and threw up in some bushes along main street. All in all it was a productive day.

Sorry for being a buster but...

The fire ants are a variety of stinging ant. There are about 280 different fire ant species around the world. They are all a member of the insect family Formicidae (Also known as Ant).

Bees on the other hand do not carry the same lineage.

Both the Bee and Fire Ant have some in common:

Bee
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Arthropoda
Class: Insecta
Order: Hymenoptera
Suborder: Apocrita
Superfamily: Apoidea

The superfamily Apoidea contains both bees and wasps.

Fire Ants
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Arthropoda
Class: Insecta
Order: Hymenoptera
Suborder: Apocrita
Superfamily: Vespoidea
Family: Formicidae
Genus: Solenopsis

As you can see they are not very related
Their only unique similarity is their ability to sting

I got stung a few times when I was younger but I recently became allergic. Once a bee stung me on the arm and half of my arm swelled up. The next time I got stung it stung me on the tongue. My tongue and throat swelled up. It was a good thing I took a bunch of Benadryl otherwise I think I would have had to go to the hospital. Then my whole body broke out in hives for a week..... pretty crappy.

Cigarettes taste pretty good to a smoker and the smell is delightful when it is being burned. It does stink when I smell my clothes the next day if I was smoking indoors. It is all a mental thing. Many people hate the smell of it because of the negative ideas attached to it. Those ideas, although mostly true have been built up and exaggerated, then forced into the media everywhere. Just like you said, your government has sabotaged the cigarette companies with negative advertising on every pack.

It can make you pretty hyper. I was allergic to certain sugars when I was a kid (prolly ages 3-7). My mom told me that if I had over a certain amount I would get pretty irritable and rambunctious(nice word, I know ) I guess it went away in time. I don't even eat very much sugar anymore at all.

*Sigh* Women

I think it will be an eternal battle of who blames who for not deciding.

Definitely don't ask "do you want to be my girlfriend"... way better ways to ask the question. I am going to disagree with JisSaw, every girl I have dated I asked out. If it seems like things are going good and you have been dating for a couple weeks there should be no problem asking her to be exclusive.

Don't go over the top with when you ask her... its just dating right? In fact i think it would be awkward if you built it up too much.

In general I think you just need to chill. And if she does say no just listen to the wisdom of Eazy-E...
"I'll throw it in the gutter and go buy another"

~sakura~ : I get where you are coming from. You definitely shouldn't get a tattoo(if you ever do) until you are 100% what you want, where you want it, happy with the design, etc. I have met a lot of people who have tattoos of stupid things(in both my and their opinion). They sometimes really regret getting them. On the other hand if you get one that you want and you really like, no worries at all. That tattoo is on my right shoulder blade

Why do you think tattoos have a bad reputation?

I am not trying to convince you to get a tattoo btw Just wondering

~sakura~ : Not trying to be a buster, but if you have never had a tattoo how do you know you don't like all of those things? Tattoo needles are very different than the medical type fyi.

One of my buddies told me about it earlier today. It sounds interesting. But as with most things, you probably shouldn't over do it. Why don't they just make a marijuana flavored K2?

Eggs, hashbrowns, and bacon! Together they form a trifecta of breakfast awesomeness.

I would say 25-49. I have met a lot of friends in my Army travels and going to school. I usually only hang out with 20 or so of them on a monthly basis though.

I am going to disagree. I would just go for it. You only live once right? Don't live your life on regrets, even if they are small things. Just tell her you like her, if she doesn't say the same back at least you know. You can move forward from there to the next girl. If she does end up liking you there is always the summer right? And plus you said she isn't going to school... she has to be going somewhere right?

Threads are the best. You have to put thought into what you say (at least you should...) I think threads give a better view of what people are like instead of saying....
"Hi","Hey","lol", etc

Edit: Except for in crazy house!

septembern : Works for me.

According the global police crime index, Norway is the safest country in the world. They attribute it to its almost 100% literacy rate and low unemployment rate. They also have a pretty good socialized health care program, unlike many other countries who messed that idea up. RIP American health care system. I think America or Canada are also pretty safe places. I have been to Canada a few times and it seems pretty similar to where I live...except for more expensive cigarettes, booze, and gas. The problem is they are such large countries crime differs in every area. I grew up in small town Wisconsin. If you left stuff unlocked, it was most likely going to be there when you got back. If you left your car unlocked in an intercity area of Los Angeles, Houston, etc it probably wont. It might not even matter if you locked it or not.

And for dangerous, I would say Somalia or Afghanistan. Terrorist groups are a big player in that. I was reading some stuff on Forbes about Afghanistan and I guess even since the war the number of foreign visitors hasn't fallen. Also there is still a good amount of foreign investment interest in the country. The companies just have to provide their own security
Columbia, Haiti, Yemen, Russia(parts), Pakistan and TONS of African countries are going through continual civil unrest (Like Chad, Congo, Sudan, etc.) So stay out of the Middle East, Africa, and some Central and South American countries and you will be just fine.

I want to try it really bad. Me and some of my friends were going to go get some on March 20th..... but I had class.

I really don't like wine. I love a lot of beers, especially darker and more crafted beers. Liquors are always fun and I enjoy... but for some reason I have never liked wine. I guess one time we mixed it with sprite..... it was mediocre.

I have had one wine in my life I liked and I don't remember what it was lol

I almost got banned from this board. It was a long long time ago. In a Vizzed Board far away. I believe it was actually the first edition of Vizzed board. I flammed a bunch in my immature genius. I was put upon Vizzed trial. In which, ironically some of my own real life friends barely gave me a thumbs up vote... darn you Cid!

Congrats. I wish I was getting ready to graduate. With all the stuff going on I have missed a year and a half of school. I don't think I will graduate for another three years . All my friends I started with will be seniors in the fall.... depressing

Way to be super smart btw!
