So I took a nap this afternoon being the responsible college student that I am. And I woke up in a cold sweat why might you ask?

The dream goes I can't remember exactly but, I came back to dorm from somewhere to find that one of the guys in dorm had been using my iBook, he turned to me and handed it back, when I walked back to my room and went to use it I realized the entire bottom and hinge side was scraped up and the plastic was coming off and stuff and I was mortified, I went back to ask what he did, he explained it had hit his belt or something, (remember Dream logic, in dreams belts can be WMDs) so I began to freak out, and I tried to flip the screen open to see if it still worked, and it broke in two! The only things that were running through my mind were, "Oh crap warranty is NOT gona cover this!" So I think I woke up praying hahaha, and then I looked around and did the all to typical, "oh... it was just a dream."

I always thought that guys without a sex life create unhealthy fixations on people who run e/n websites and forums.

mr rampant sir,

you are a very annoying person absolutely devoid of any intellect which you are always anxious to prove.

to attack someone just for the sake of hurting someone without provocation and just because you don't like this person is very cowardly and it only derails the thread.

threads are for discussion not name calling (of which i may be now guilty) or rudeness. if you have nothing to contribute why throw insults and blather?

awaiting hopefully an intelligent reply.

nah, i thot it was kinda funny. Of course without the benefot of inflection who REALLY knows...but I've called and been called worse...

and no matter what you're not NEARLY as nerdish as the guy who lives upstairs from me.. He has a t-shirt with the words "Yes, I am" on the front and nothing else. Because Yes, he IS a rocket scientist.

I agree that the name-calling is really idiotic and indicative of a lower intelligence quotient.

*SOME* people forget that *some* of the people here are teens or just out of teenhood.

Anyway, it's a crappy attitude to have during the holidays.

Yes, we need MORE nap threads! This thread was a GREAT idea!!

You heard the man, let us all report on our latest nap dreams!

What gets old are rambling incoherent posts. Chic[k]en isn't the only guilty party.

It's like you guys have OCD or something. Every time the kid posts, you guys come into the thread and say the same less than clever bullshit. Enough already. We all know you guys don't like him, that you don't think too highly of his intellectual skills, and are going to make pointless comments about how pointless his threads are. He is far from the only one making "rambling, incoherent posts", but you gang up on him like a gang of thugs as soon as you see his name. If you don't like him so much, IGNORE him. It's not that hard. It's more than just rampant that needs to give it a rest.

And this isn't directed specifically at you AK. There are a bunch of people that do it, and a lot of people are sick of seeing the same old garbage.

It's typical, there are bullies in every "schoolyard". The problem is, online you can't confront `em (and beat the **** out of `em), so that they'll leave you alone. It's too bad, some of the guys on here could use a good ass-kicking from time to time.

Excuse me? How is that cowardly? I was agreeing with Rampant. Come on, how so?

Would you like me to say it for myself? Do you not believe I could? Or would?

He's a ****ing nerd. He's pathetic. He needs to get a freakin' life.

This thread is going nowhere. Sorry chicken, it's got to be culled, for the good of the herd.
