Do not eat chips out of a communal bowl. You might as well stick your hand in a toilet.
emma. seventeen. i don't believe in the concept of normal. i'm currently eating a plum, just in case you wanted to know. i like good grammar. i'm australian, currently living in the US though. i wear jeans, pretty much everyday. i'm obsessed with reading, but i have a tendency to just re-read the same books. up until recently all i read was in the fantasy genre, unless for school. i read paint it black by janet fitch because it's my best friends favourite book, it did alright, though not as good as she believes, not that i would ever tell her that unless i was looking for a slap in the face. her and i found chuck through looking at quotes, see we're slightly obsessed with quotes, i told her to check this guy out as his quote looked pretty incredible. we're now hooked on him, 'love at first quote' in a way (i'm aware that was lame, oh, i haven't mentioned i'm the lamest person you'll ever talk to). basically i've read invisible monsters and i loved it, and i just finished reading choke. i've read part of stranger than fiction as well, and i'm starting rant.
if you haven't noticed already, i'm incredibly random.
and i finished my plum
and if you want to know anything else, that i have the ability to tell you, don't hesitate to ask 
oh, and somebody please tell me if you know what my topic quote is from aha
`He said he would come in,' the White Queen went on, `because he was looking for a hippopotamus. Now, as it happened, there wasn't such a thing in the house, that morning.'
`Is there generally?' Alice asked in an astonished tone.
`Well, only on Thursdays,' said the Queen.
hahaha. yes, true. i was going to mention that, then couldn't be bothered. basically i don't mind not having capitalisation in things like this. it makes it seem too essay or school like, and as much as i don't mind essays or school, it's a lot easier to not add all the capitals in with things like this.
i do believe i just said the same thing repeatedly just in different forms there.

You spelt favorite in British.
"They sold you hippies grunge, hip hop, now liberty activism."
Is that Seinfield? I could do without the show, but for some reason, I remember reading an article about some guy yelling at another guy about double dipping or something.
"They sold you hippies grunge, hip hop, now liberty activism."
haha , no it isnt seinfield. i could do without that show too.
and i'm australian...
did you miss that?

oh, i'm sarcastic, really sarcastic, so please don't take anything personal aha

funnily enough, that movie just wasn't all that interesting for me.

Along Came Polly?
Are you socially awkward?
I bet you're socially awkward.
Welcome, btw.
i dislike capital letters as well! kudos.
~and we will beat them with our fury, we will crush them all like vermin~
The transition should be easy as both Australia and Kentucky have HORRIBLE spiders.
Love,
Joe Tonigh
good onya, sheila. perhaps we could get some farmer's union iced coffee and talk about kangaroos sometime.
i'm being blatantly rude. hello. kentucky is shaped like a drumstick, isn't that ironic? you live in a state that is shaped like a piece of chicken. ha ha.
see, i'm the reason why we can't have nice things.
nice to meet you.
“if you want to be a bird,” you said once, “with colorful plumage and buoyant trills, you must also be ready for hollow bones."
Ireland looks like a chicken nugget.
have I ever mentioned that I'm a Kentucky Colonel?
Smartazboy - no, not along came polly. i will be impressed if anyone gets it, it will mean that they are as lame as i am ahah i know not real incentive to know the quote now is it
agustana - haha, why are you presuming i'm socially awkward?
crn11 - yay
Joe Tonigh- haha, i think australian wins with the most horrilbe animals in teh world. come visit australia where we have the worlds most deadly snakes and spiders, where you can't swim in a lot of our beaches due to crocodiles and box jellyfish. nice way to get tourists in lol.
fsdghcamel - blatantly rudes pretty fun really. and i'm sure you're not the sol reason we can't have nice things hah. oh, i do like the iced coffee bit, seeing as i actually am from south australia. i just don't like it, hate anything with coffee. oh and i think the irony is that the state invented KFC and it's shaped like a piece of chicken. not that i've ever noticed that it looks like a piece of chicken.
Barca Boy - haha, what the republic or northern?
nath - do you want a medal with that?
god i get bored easily. you're all thinking im a nut for answering all of you like that aren't you?
aha, oh wells, i'll applaud my efforts.

Hi Emma, Welcome. I googled your quote because it was bugging me, but I didn't post because that seemed like cheating.
Don't mind agastana, she's snide and boring.
Did you quote buddy also join? I saw a new thread that linked to this one.
I cheated to get the quote. I wouldn't be caught dead watching that show!
you kinda remind me of my friend lauren. except she'd never watch gilmore girls. or at least, she better not...
I do?
Ha. no sorry the new girl does.
haha nath you cheated? wow i didnt get that from the site link you posted /slaps forehead
uhm, do you like this friend of yours? or is me reminding you of her not a good thing?
mirka, thanks dont worry, i don't mind anyone if i don't actually know them, too much effort wasted in caring what they think aha. and your last sentence did not make sense to me, probably made sense to everyone else, but occasionally i am kinda slow, not often, but../shrugs

to clarify, the question confused me, not the term thread, just in case anyone thought i was particularly stupid.

haha, no, I wrote you instead or your. I was referring to this thread and you had mentioned you a friend that is also obsessed with quotes so I thought that might be her.
ahaha. if i'd seen the thread i would have understood. but nah it's not.

Don't mind agastana, she's snide and boring.
I'm glad someone else thinks so. I don't like being mean to people that i don't know, but that cunt annoys the shit out of me. She's like a feral cat who shows up at your front door and just keeps scratching and scratching and meowing and scratching until you bring out the hose and shoot the fucker to make sure it never comes back to wake you up in the dead of night again.

you and i are into fairly the same creature habit of very decent grammar and no caps at all
i'm a writer. (a novice, but still.) and attacking a message board writerly-wise is really just too much for me. i'm still a stickler for very decent grammar. but lessening my efforts with no caps is just the right amount liberating. like peeing in the park at midday. mate.
oddly enough, i write in all caps. always. and i always write longhand my narrative. i read it perfectly, at that. cant imagine the same can be for anyone else reading the same scribbles..
so odd.
anyway, welcome to the cult !
lots of booktalk here, and non booktalk as well.
i do have a question you do possess the capacity to answer:
what do you think of this writer?:
http://chuckpalahniuk.net/features/shorts/suffer-the-fool
he's a cult friend and a member and part time instructor here (he was once, that is..)
take care and see you on the boards

I use to do the no capitalisation thing, but decided some months ago to formalise everything. The shift key can be hard to reach, but it makes things look nice sometimes. I've been pretty good at keeping with it, too.
writing in all-caps means you're self important.
In case you haven't noticed, that is kind of a thing with people.
Good coffee is like drinking Rock and Roll.
clearly.
seriously, though.. i had a huge issue reading my writing later on. months down the road, i couldnt read what id written. so i contrived of a sort of rosetta stone that was all caps. so that i would know each and every letter in each and every place. it consisted of a to z and zero to nine. (i have mild dyslexia afterall, and a very short attention span.) and it's worked out for me thus far, as important as i am or not at all

thanks. why yes that is some messy scribbling there. would take an awful amount of effort to read that through properly. and i'll tell you what i think of him, once i'm awake enough to pay attention to it properly. tired today. something to do with it being two in the morning perhaps
yeah, see, i'm just too lazy to hit shift all the time.
i don't believe there is a scrap of evidence pointing to the face that writing in caps means you're self important.

writing in all caps means they got low self image and are worried about people hearing/reading what they have to say.
AND ALSO THAT THEY ARE GAY!
honestly i was kind of just making my fact up. i added my own cold reading to it, i don't really know a whole lot about handwriting analysis, although i'd like to. and there's nothing wrong with being self important.
I dig your handwriting Kabol. Legible without being too neat. Too neat is blah.
"They sold you hippies grunge, hip hop, now liberty activism."
nate, if i were gay, you wouldve been the first to know. big boy. meow and stuff.
nobody reads my longhand. nobody really can haha you should see a page after heavy revision.
heh, something like that could be thread worthy.. if n i come up wit a gooood title
later !!
