Anyways, its a lot better up close. The picture in my sig may be a little over developed as well. I don't know. You should've come over and flamed me or something. tongue.gif

So I guess you're right. Even though they've invented many OTHER things used in every day life, just the simple fact that they invented neons makes them douchebags. Really I'm not argueing, they still suck.
  3. "Sucks" cannot accurately describe the horribleness of this county. In fact, I don't think any word can.
  4. Wow... I had no idea that the term "rice" could be used to describe someone with bad grammatical skills. I guess you DO learn something new everyday, huh? graemlins/jerkit.gif
  5. ^^^yeah, yeah, yeah... not everyone's last name is Webster... so fuck off...
  6. this thread makes me want to---> graemlins/popcorn.gif
  7. i was there... WTF? you guys didn't see me? tongue.gif

    cody park

    no kidding... who pissed in your corn flakes this morning dude? oh wait, let me guess... it was probably Cody Park, right?
  9. HA! once again... THAT would be an opinion...
  10. ^^^ since the statement below your avatar says,"Opinion does not = fact" i'm not going to take any of that paragraph of jibberish that you just wrote to heart. on a side note, however, my Escort only has 88 hp, and performance wise is a turd. i'm also sure there are another 7 million people that think your car is "absofuckinglutely" retarded as well. but i guess that doesn't matter, since all of our flames are completely biased and one-sided... just like Kerry's speaches

  12. once again, i said nothing about war being a game. graemlins/bsflag.gif also, if neons were so "uncool" then why the hell do the companies Streetglow, Plasmaglow, Liteglow, Varad, ICELED, and Flowlighting even exist? because there is a demand for the products they produce. which obviously means that whatever is in demand, must also be (to quote you) "cool." but then again, only prissy little urban school boys that tuck their dicks between their legs everytime they hear someone say "terrorism", "assualt rifle", or "car bomb" use the word "cool." Fucking prat
  13. 1. The military seems to be doing an excellent job right now. you can't seriously expect to go to war and have absolutely NO casualties can you? 2.My grandmother who has alsheimers (sp?) speaks in circles. should she be president? i don't think so. 3.i never said anything about paying for the rehabilitation of poor countries. if they threaten our safety, then they should pay for it. the general public just seems to think that after we demolish a country that we should be required to rebuild it. bullshit, they started it, they can finish it. 4.once again, never said war was a game. more of a way of life. a life that some people seem to be living with blinders on. 5. Next time, the south will win 6. I don't have a problem with them being "life partners," just don't call it "marriage." straight people can get married and gays can become life partners. sounds good to me. 7. You must not have a sense of humor then. 8. Every politician has his lies. if Kerry wants to be president, then i think he needs to tell us EXACTLY how he's going to fix the country. rather then saying over, and over again,"My plans will make this country better." WTF? yeah, that really narrows it down . 9. Once again... sense of humor. 10. AAAAANNNNNDDDDD.... Fuck Kerry have a nice day graemlins/thumb.gif
  14. ^^^ and i know a lot of guys who VOLUNTEERED to go over there... just so they could kill some people. dying is just a part war. some can handle it, some can't. but ALL of those men and women at war right now, volunteered to sacrifice they're life for they're country. all the people back home, just don't understand that. you think,"oh, that George Bush is sending those poor, young men off to war." no, they sent themselves, just by signing up. here's an example: my dad's friend (a captain in the Navy reserve) has been hit by an RPG in Bosnia, shot about 10 times, gone to Vietnam twice, Persion Gulf, and is now serving in Iraq for the third time. ya think he hates Bush? he likes war, enjoys it, and that's the kind of people that this country needs. not just a bunch of people that "talk" to their enemies. we're the biggest super power left in the world. why not use that to our advantage? instead of being a bunch of pussy whipped bitches. if it were up to me, every male would be required to serve two years in a branch of the military (of their choice) right after high school. i bet there would be a lot less crime, less complaining, and definite increase in national pride...
  15. hey Republicant... what's that say below your avatar? yeah, so STFU... graemlins/jerkit.gif
  16. i'm voting for Bush for several reasons... 1. He supports the military and increasing its strength/numbers/payroll (since i've enlisted in the Marine Corps). 2. I've heard Kerry's speaches and its nothing but repetitive jibberish. he says the same thing over, and over, just in a slightly different way. Also, he has so many "plans" on how to make the country better, but won't say what these plans are. WTF is that? 3. All the democrats suck. they support welfare and other social programs which is a load of B.S. i hate the thought of me working my ass off just so that part of my paycheck can put food in the mouth of some lazy-ass. 4. Kerry's a pussy. come on, who DOESN'T like war. its exciting, and takes your mind off of the everyday boredom that excists here in ohio. 5. Bush is from the south, nuff said. 6. i don't think that gay people should "marry." call it something else besides "marriage" and i've got no problem. 7. Bush's secret service could Kerry's security's ass anyday. 8. Kerry talks a lot of shit, but can't back it up. Bush said we'd go to war on terrorism and those that support it, and guess what? we're at war. 9. democrat's mascot is a donkey, i mean jackass. anyone else see the irony in this? 10. i couldn't think of anything else, but wanted to make it an even ten... fuck Kerry...
  17. shutup homo... oh, and i'm not a real big football fan (college, NFL, none of it), but i always watcht the OSU vs. Michigan game. its always exciting smile.gif
  18. ^^^ best bumper sticker EVER
