Things that I hate

DAMNIT! I'm in the Foyer again!

DAMNIT!!!

Also, my mind skips the first three threads of Milagre automatically.

This.

[buckshot]

That Syphon really has my full undivided attention, right now!

[human.]

AP tests

Agreed. And AP classes. 'Cept for chem. =]
And taking AP Spanish at all.

It's opposite for me.
Pre-AP Chemistry is the class I hate the most this year.
AP Chemistry will most likely be the class I hate the most next year.

Ummm...the opposite gender.
Jk

Don't go into AP Chem with that attitude!
It's such a beautiful class...

I'm not sure about your school, but at mine, AP chem is actually considered easier than Pre-AP chem. Embrace chemistry! It helps with the girls! Or at least me? Hate AP Spanish. Trust me.

Well then, you must be super good at chemistry, or something.
I mean, my mom is a chemist, but none of her talent passed onto me.
I have good memory, yet it never manages to catch on to polatomic ions. It never manages to grasp the Nomenclature.
I actually had AP Chemistry at the beginning of the year, but I'd previously only taken IPC before, so I got hit with intense chemistry that I had no chance of understanding....I still don't think I will understand.

My only hope is that my mom will tutor me on chemistry throughout the summer, and that I will be able to pick it up.

Easier? Not over here. I wish.
How exactly does it help with the girls? lol I'm in French, but when I took spanish, I never once thought of taking an AP/pre-AP class.

[human.]

To stay on track with the thread! I really hate when people leave.. It makes me so sad.

For the girls thing, guy who can explain balancing redox equations=hot. (To me, at least.)
Spanish is a great language, but terrible class. I usually equate it with suffering.
You can get chemistry, though! I believe in you. But I can understand your situation. Physics C studying is a big part of my summer plans. Though I have a feeling it's not what will happen.

That's another thing I hate! Science that I don't understand.. and calculus quizzes on the first day of school..

I really hate people that act like they don't like you, when you haven't done anything wrong.

lol I'm going to assume that your joking. I don't see how being good at chemistry would attract anyone. Coincidently, my class just learned redox this week.
The only problem I have with spanish is the fact that it has like a million different tenses that you have to memorize. But, I'm guessing that's true for most languages other than English...
I kinda can't get chemistry though. I can remember most anything a person says, that I actively listened to, and tell them that they said it years later. I can't however memorize most of the Chemistry stuff.
The knowledge won't stay in my memory.

Oh yeah, I'm taking Calculus next year. However, I don't even know what calculus is about.

[human.]

I do like you! I like most people!

But I love chemistry.. I really am attracted to people who are good at it.. But not just chemistry! Just people who are intelligent, in general!

[Gravity Defier]

I really am attracted to people who are good at it..

So we're trying to attract people here, now? Is it spring still?

Cezen, let me give you a tip: ignore anything she says about how to become more attractive to girls, unless you are trying to attract her specifically. Girls like all sorts of things; we're crazy that way.

[elfprince13]

Ever been playing a video game, and somebody else pulls off a really crazy maneuver and everyone yells "LOL HAX"....that's basically calculus vs normal math.

Actually...it's all about limits, and the weird things that happen around them, which allow you to meaningfully solve a lot of problems that would otherwise involve dividing by zero or repeating something an infinite number of times.

But it's still cool to be attractive to me! I don't particularly mind. But she's right. Girls are far too diverse for their own good. (Kidding?)

Um...that parenthetical applies to the whole part I quoted, right?

[human.]

It applies to the "Girls are too diverse for their own good." part! I like diversity!

[Gravity Defier]

I'm just wondering what you're trying to hype up here: Chemistry or you.

If the former, maybe tell him why Chemistry is so awesome and have it be for a reason other than "I'm attracted to Chem-nerds." Presumably, there are awesome things about Chemistry that have nothing to do with your hormones. [insert bad joke about two people having chemistry here]

If it's the latter, well, just PM him or IM him and give him a list of things you find attractive, and if he's so moved, he'll start going down that list and attempt to mold himself into your ideal.


Seriously. Who would mind it if the people they're surrounded by were attractive?

That's my point! Haha, but it doesn't particularly matter. It's just intelligence that I find attractive, and I know others do, as well. I want to provide incentive for learning! I don't know.. I love learning?

[neo-dragon]

It sounds more like you want to be incentive for learning.

This reminds me of a student I had last year. Major underachiever and troublemaker when he was in my class, but the next semester he was practically a model student. What happened? Basically his studious girlfriend told him she was tired of people asking her why she was with such a dumbass. We had quite a laugh over it in my department. We wanted to set up some kind of a matchmaking service where we matched dumb guys with smart cute girls to whip them into shape. So you just might be on to something. Let it be known that girls are attracted to intelligence. At least every worthwhile one I've ever met is.

[Confessions]

I think her ideal is being the center of attention.

I hate people pleasers who have no obvious opinion and always skirt around direct confrontations with double negatives, self contradictions, and question marks.

Sounds pretty complicated. Though, I used to be a beast at math. Apparently, I got dumber this year, since my state mandatory test score went down (like 200 points)from last year, when I only missed one.

lol I really don't know what to say. This whole thing gave me a good lol, though.
Soooo Human, I should get good at chemistry, so I can attract you?

Gravity Defier- Yeah I know. I mean, I'm pretty sure for most girls(at least teenage ones), it's about looks or status, not knowledge on chemistry. lol

[Syphon the Sun]

I actually found calculus to be quite a bit easier than trigonometry.

[CezeN]

I don't know anything about that, as well.

On topic: I hate people who don't answer their phones, especially, when your stranded at school, with no ride =( .

[Eaquae Legit]

I only understood trig once I started calculus. But that may have been the two different people teaching it.

Also, chem is super-awesome, and I definitely know girls who are attracted to science boys. I live in a small, geeky, bubble-shaped world, but such girls do, in fact, exist.

[Gravity Defier]

Gravity Defier- Yeah I know. I mean, I'm pretty sure for most girls(at least teenage ones), it's about looks or status, not knowledge on chemistry. lol

And yet, that's not what I was trying to get at.
Everyone I've ever known well, males included, has thought intelligence was attractive. I'm not arguing that anyone is looking for looks or status over intelligence (in general or of a specific knowledge), though people do and that's their prerogative. What I'm trying to get at, that Kelsey is not getting, is this:

When you love something, like Chemistry, you should probably talk about the things you love about it.


For example, I love Star Wars. When people who haven't seen it ask if it's any good or what I like about it, I'm not going to tell them "I am soooo turned on by guys who watch it! I just want everyone to watch it, so if you do, know that I'll be super duper attracted to you as a result! I love movies! Oh, by the way, did you know it's a turn on for me?" I'd tell them it's campy fun or about the characters or something about it, not me.

I'm sorry Confessions person said it quite the way they did; I don't hate any of what was said but it did get on my nerves that it shifted the way it did.

I was also trying to get at the point that some people are attracted to different types of intelligent people, so focusing on one to impress someone is dumb. There's someone out there who will appreciate your academic passion; that's who you want to be with.

Yeah I know. I knew what you were trying to get at with your last few posts.
I was really only replying to your first post though.

At the risk of continuing to annoy myself -because yes, this has gotten to that point- here's what I meant for you, Cezen. The rest was for Kelsey. It was a two-in-one. Basically, you don't give girls enough credit and she doesn't give Chemistry enough credit.



As for things I truly hate:

I hate that my brother approaches every problem with my nieces with yelling, spanking, and sleeping. They are kids, they need to get out and do things, not nap or watch tv all day. They are people, they need to be treated with respect, not yelled at because they're coping with boredom and his inattentiveness as best as they can.

I hate that my brother makes my oldest niece clean up after him and her sisters and make dinner for them. She's 10. Yes, chores and responsibility aren't bad and if he were doing it to teach her responsibility, that'd be one thing. He's making her do it out of his own laziness or hatred for cleaning and cooking and that makes it f****** up in my book.

I hate that all the things I got done while my brother was gone for that glorious two weeks is all undone.

Well teen girls.
And, according to some study that someone mentioned , at my other forum, that some state did(I trusted his word), high school girls date more based on social status(of the person, what they'd gain from dating the person, ect), than anything else.
This was also validated by a few girls on the forum, some of which I know aren't just shallow.

I was saying that generally a higher percentage of highschool girls, don't date based on intelligence, but on other factors.
Btw- I'm sorry if I'm annoying you.

[human.]

Sorry guys. =/

I just meant that first comment to be kind of a joke? Or a half-joke, because it's true, but I didn't expect it to bring about a response... After that it was just explanation to me? I think.. Because it really is the truth, but it doesn't actually hold any weight to what I was saying about chemistry. Just flare, I suppose. I figured if he were really interested in why I love chemistry, he'd ask. And he didn't, I think? I realize this could have been avoided pretty much after the second post about it, but the whole "I'm going to assume that your joking. I don't see how being good at chemistry would attract anyone. " bothered me because that is honestly how I feel. Even if it doesn't matter! But anyway, sorry, again! I didn't mean for it to actually make a ripple like this?

[CezeN]

I kinda just assumed that since you were good at chemistry, you feel attracted to someone good at chemistry, because it's something you have in common with the person.


Ontopic: I hate overly loud people, that type super loud in public, when others are in earshot. Because, it seems like attentionwhoring. No offense to any loud people.

You mean like the sorority girl scream? It makes my blood boil.

[Gravity Defier]

No, I honestly don't think it's you or Kelsey. I'm pretty sure it's misplaced annoyance, set off by a dumb but harmless statement. I've already missed the time I should have stepped away from the computer but I think I can behave now.

[Young Val]

Alea, do you hate that they're remaking GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN as much as I do?!

[Gravity Defier]

Alea, do you hate that they're remaking GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN as much as I do?!

At least as much as you do...what the fudge?! I can stomach a Footloose remake, I can handle a Teen Witch remake, I can even handle a Short Circuit remake, but this movie is my childhood and the whole reason I fell desperately in love with Chicago (because someday, I was going to be a dancer on D-TV).


I HATE Hollywood.

[Jeesh_girl15]

I hate zits that won't go away.

Correction, I hate zits. PERIOD.

Zits suck, man, and I'm in prime puberty age. Whoop diddy doo.

Prime puberty age? Ha! I still have acne problems. Heck, my roommate's parents still have acne problems. It stays with you for life, man. For life.

[Luet]

I was gonna say this. It doesn't stay with everyone for life but for many, it does. I don't think you get to complain if you have acne when it's normal and expected. When you are an adult and still suffering, then you have a right to whine.

[starlooker]

Like me.

Actually, I didn't have it as badly in adolescence as I do NOW, which I think is horribly unfair.

[Luet]

Ditto. Mine started around 19 I think...peaked at 25/26 and has now settled into a mild adult acne (with constant vigilance and visits to the derm).
