Unlike you, I've never done any drugs like that. Sure I take tylenol, nyquil, etc. But I've never done any drugs like heroin, crack, pot, etc. I feel that you should have gotten a Score 3: Insightful for your post. Them "researchers" do need to be part of the addiction before "...throwing numbers around..."
Just through I'd share that with you... btw, nice to know that you've been unactive for 4 years. I hope you can hold that for longer.
Dude, I know what you're going through. This year i've spent about 11 weeeks without my computer due to crashes and fried mother boards. I just got my computer back a few weeks ago, and now I baby my computer like it is my own child. I know how its a living hell without a computer. Also, I spend about 12 hours a day on my computer. About 90% of the time, I'm online.
When I first got online 2.5 years ago, my dad installed Cyber Patrol to prevent my access to "the bad places." It did rather well on protecting me from that, but it did go overboard. I live in the county "Middlesex." Anytime I wanted to read the county news (www.middlesexnews.com) I got a Cyber Patrol error. That obiously came from the word "sex" in "middlesex." Sure that was annoying, but I noticed several other faults with the program. For instance "nude" gets a Cyber Patrol error, but "nakid" gets right on by. That always seemed rather odd to me. So just like it was said... get another ISP if you so care to do.
I'm just going to tell you a quick story about my first day back in school after my April Vacation. I dress weird, you can say I'm a freak, or just weird. This is what I look like just about everyday at school. Because of this, I was assaulted. For many many years since about fifth grade, i've been the object of ridicule because i'm very defenseless. I'm now a junior in high school, everyday I get made fun of or joked about. I've got the reputation in my class for the mostly likely student to bring a gun to school and kill people. This is very untrue, I wish to harm no one. In fact i'm a real peacefull guy. I just don't get treated as a human being. Since i've been through all this ridicule i've learned to ignore it. (BTW in my picture, i'd like to explain that i have a very serious "ANTI-TREND" deal going on. I hate dressing like anyone else because $50+ for a pair of pants that has the name "Tommy" on my ass just isn't worth it.)
Anyways here's what happened today. A fellow student noticed me standing in the doorway of an empty room, he began shouting at me saying stuff like "Hey! Here's that psycho kid!" and "He's in the trench coat mafia, watch out he has a gun." I know he was just messing around with me, but it was just getting ugly at that point. I told him to back off and he began to grow violent with me. It all went off when he first spat right in my face. I stood my ground and didn't flintch, I grew angry myself at that point. He then demanded that i appologize for being disrespectful to him. Just right there, that's BULLSHIT! One of the most disrespectfull thing one can do is spit in another mans face. Yet I still stood my ground.... After a few more mins of him taunting me, I was fed up and told him to "Leave me the hell alone." Being the punk he was, he quickly threw his hand to my throat and began choking me. I could tell he wasn't 100% serious about choking me to death because I was still able to breathe through my nose. After about 4 seconds of this I immediatly ripped his hand off my throat and once again told him to leave me the hell alone. I guess he grew tired of me and so he left. Before leaving the room he walked over to me and punched me in the side of my throat/neck area. I was very lucky he didn't get a HARD hit on me, or else I would have died right there from a colaspsed windpipe. He then walked out of the room. I was left in the room with saliva running down my face and finding it difficult to swallow anything.
Now let me ask you this. At what point did I do anything wrong?
I have no problem with Linux, and I know for a fact it IS better than any microsoft OS. I meant was that destroying computers can be fun, but NOT fun if it had Linux on it. Guess I should have been more explicit the first time, eh?
Hey hey, I'm all for destroying stuff. However, at any point in a movie or tv show, when I see a character destroy a computer I immediatly become heart broken. Computers have feelings too you know. I think I should start a A.D.C.H.(U.I.H.L.I.)P.F.A. club.
(That's Anti Destroying Computers (Unless It Has Linux Installed) Prevention For America.)
Yep, Just another waste of time organization that has a bunch of single-minded people with little to no thought in their head besides selfish ideas.
Just this last wednesday, The Matrix was to open for my area. I had planned on skipping school to go see it. Instead I just went to school. Maybe if i got the money i'll skip school to see new star wars flick. But seriously people, isn't a days education worth more than the next movie of the century? Well.. it seems every year a movie is labeled "Movie of the century." I just hope this movie makes more than Titanic will ever.

A real hacker should be able to speak in binary code. It'd take a long ass time to say a sentence, but its more effecient than MS Word.
