I'm also serious. That was fucking awesome. I even gave you +rep for it. That's how awsome it was. And as we all know, rep is serious business.

To answer your question, I work at a law firm in their copy center. Very boring stuff.

Coffeedagger 2008-05-14 02:28 PM

I would've rep'ed her too but but i already rep'ed too much recently.

Thanatos plays on zelaron for 50% of his day.

Willkillforfood 2008-05-14 03:08 PM

Well, the "raver" scene is full of those sort of guys :). I dated a girl who was into that shit, and dear God did she hang out with a bunch of pussies. I wanted to say "fags," but I didn't want to offend Kagom for being associated with people like she hung out with.

Sounds like a nice girl!

Welcome aboard!

This statement is somewhat true. I get paid to visit Zelaron. Sweet gig, huh?

Elizabeth 2008-05-15 09:58 AM

Well thanks for the rep, I remember I got banned from this forum for neg repping this one girl on her post about abortion, it's not that I didn't agree with her, it's that every other sentence had the word rape and "suxzors" in it (I guess it's called internet chat, she had numbers instead of letters in most areas) I told her if she didn't have anything intelligent to say, she should shut the hell up. She had a terrible fit and "I was banned for being a tyrant"? It made no sense, I do hope this forum isn't the same.

Ha you get paid to come here?! That sounds more interesting that the job you have by the copier machine.

The rave scene isn't so bad, I enjoy it. I mean your right they dress like idiots, but there's a difference between a raver and this horrid new B.S. 'emo' trend. I mean when I go raving I don't dress all in black and paint my face like a sad clown, I wear bright clothes and bring a lot of glow sticks with very little to no make up. The point is to have fun not to mope in a corner, that'd be a horrible party everyone dressed in black in a corner like rats scouring a sewer hiding from the light. I dread even thinking about it!!

Oh! and hi Asamin!

Lenny 2008-05-15 09:59 AM

Banned for being a tyrant? Hmmm, so tempting. Methinks I'll put that towards WW and see if I can get a rule implemented, just like !K_A!. :D

Welcome, by the way. Enjoy your stay!!

Elizabeth 2008-05-15 10:15 AM

Thanks I will!

Nah, I still have the job in the copy center it's just extremely slow most of the time so I have free time to do whatever I wish which is normally getting on Zelaron. In essence, I'm being paid to browse the web. I don't mind it... but days like this where there isn't SHIT to do, I really wish I had a much more meaningful job.

Elizabeth 2008-05-15 11:08 AM

Why not get a new job then?

Thanatos 2008-05-15 11:16 AM

Because the pay is good and if I stick long enough through the bullshit, it'll be easy for me to move up the corporate ladder. My goal is to be working in the IT department by the start of '09 (if I'm still working here, that is).

Elizabeth 2008-05-15 11:23 AM

My father works in the IT department of a hospital, it's like a morgue down there. The temperature is so low thanks to the computers constantly needing to be kept cool! I mean I'm a summer girl being down there helping him when he works grave yard, I feel as if I'm going to freeze over. (correct me if the IT department in a hospital is different from one in a law firm)

Why the deuce would you want to work in such a place? My father has been working their for eight years and he doesn't make nearly as much as one of my paintings sells for at an art gallery in a month!

Elizabeth 2008-05-15 11:26 AM

Wow, what a shame is this forum really that bad?

I sorta like it as of yet, maybe I'm not getting the full picture here...

WetWired 2008-05-15 11:27 AM

Usually, the work room is separate from the server room...

Elizabeth 2008-05-15 11:39 AM

Oh well then I guess my fathers work place is different.

I'm only talking from expirience.

Wallow 2008-05-15 01:44 PM

dude, typos

No one is out of bounds and nothing is held back.

Thanatos 2008-05-15 02:06 PM

Hoo teh fukk caers?

Wallow 2008-05-15 04:31 PM

Touche monsieur, mais j'aime beaucoup.

Elizabeth 2008-05-15 07:26 PM

Pardon me and my crappy english, it isn't my first language.

HandOfHeaven 2008-05-15 09:58 PM

What's your first and where are you from?

Wallow 2008-05-16 03:22 PM

I only know how to type and speak some French because of language class (I'm in French 2 in 9th). I could speak on this forum in all spanish because of my fluency in the language, but there would be no communication between me and you entities...

Elizabeth 2008-05-16 07:26 PM

My First is Castillian and I'm from El Salvador, born in America though.

(currently residing in America to this day, I was in this studies abroad thing for a long time in England and certain parts of Dublin Ireland)

HandOfHeaven 2008-05-16 08:28 PM

El Salvador; you must be quite the looker.

That sounds like quite the study abroad experience. I plan on traveling to England several times in my life, but after I get a college degree. Are you currently attending a university of some sort? Are you out of college?

Elizabeth 2008-05-16 10:20 PM

I appreciate the comment, and I guess I have fare features, but I'd prefer not to be vain.

It is wonderful and no my education is pretty hard/complex to explain, I'm not in college (not old enough & not enough credits yet either) but I'm taking college classes. The study abroad program was something I signed up for at the local community college, it was interesting.

If you do go to England the palace isn't all it's cracked up to be, it's actually pretty pathetic. The castles in Ireland are much better, and more scenic.

Lenny 2008-05-17 05:19 AM

I was going to ask which part of England you were in, but methinks I don't need to now. :p London, is my guess. Anywhere else than London? Because if you didn't, you missed some fantastic castles up here (North).

Elizabeth 2008-05-17 11:48 PM

Oh no, I was stationed in London (good guess), it's pretty to be honest but I don't like the castle I expected something a bit more fairytale like.

Lenny 2008-05-18 05:51 AM

Well, "palace", rather than castle. :rolleyes:

Did you get chance to see Windsor Castle at all? It's one of the Queen's official residences, and damn, it's a nice place. Nearly as nice as the castle and estates up in Scotland.

What did you think of London? And when was it you were over here?

Kaneda 2008-05-18 08:00 AM

Manchester United! ftw

Willkillforfood 2008-05-18 11:08 AM

Lenny, if you get rich some day you need your own castle.

Elizabeth 2008-05-18 06:14 PM

Well I understand there's a difference between a palace and castle but I sort of always generalized them as synonyms for each other.

Sadly no, I didn't do to much site seeing, I was more focused on my studies and at the time this pleasant fellow who had stolen my heart. Sad to, I had heard about it, I wanted to go, it seemed like a nice tourist spot. Let's see I went when I was thirteen, so a while ago can't really give an exact number or date because I'd rather not disclose my age.

Brits are very nice people, thanks to my spanish accent, fare skin, and black hair most assumed I was from Spain so if the rumor is true; (They treat Americans badly), I didn't run into that problem. When I first went I thought the accent was very exotic, but after a while it just got a tad irritating and incomprehensable. I spent most of my time at City hall doing my research on the government and cultural differences between there and where I'm from and other small studies on the architect of the tower bridge and the tower of london. My second most frequented place was actually the Tower of london, I did a lot of research on William the Conqueror there. A very dreary and frightening place, I don't plan on going back any time soon, the worst part was getting there, the sea sickness I got from taking the commuter boat at St Katherines Docks across the Thames river was horrid.

Did you take a picture with the guards and try to get them to move (you'd get arrested). I've been all over Europe, and when I was in England Cambridge was a very pleasant place to reside in. Yes, both the palace and the tower of london weren't that great, but think how old they areo_O I also went when I was thirteen, and guessing from what you have said so far, you're about 16 or 17. That's my prediction!

Elizabeth 2008-05-18 07:34 PM

Ha brava, I won't tell you if your right or wrong I'll just nod my head and smile. :D

I took a lot of pictures but the stupidity of it all is that the young man that had swooned me over was in all of them and when he broke my heart they all went in flames, I do believe my father still has a few he salvaged. I could scan them and get them up here in the near future.

I did not try to harass the guards, though I did touch the fuzzy hat with permission of course. I hope to god it was faux fur, I can not stand touching dead animals.

Lenny 2008-05-19 03:00 AM

Real Canadian Bear fur - humanely culled, though. They don't kill the bears specifically for the fur.

There's a name for them that has something to do with "bear", but I just can't remember it.

You know, Buckingham Palace is relatively young - the main facade that is seen was built in 1850 (the East Side with the massive statue outside), and redesigned in 1913. The main core building dates to 1703, which was then called Buckingham House.

As for the Tower, it was originally a simple square keep (the White Tower) built by William the Conqueror in 1078, with fortifications and a moat built by Richard the Lionheart in the 12th Century and Henry III in the 13th, and further fortifications between 1275 and 1285 by Edward I. It was actually a royal residence (Henry III's work) until Oliver Cromwell demolished the palatial buildings in his time in power (1653 to 1658).

Now if you want old, you need only look at the Palace of Westminster (Houses of Parliament) - earliest records suggest that it was a royal residence in 1016 of Canute the Great. William I moved there from the Tower during his reign. Sadly, the buildings were demolished by William II, and those which stand today are the ones he had built. Indeed, every Parliament has met in the Palace since 1295. So although the buildings might not be old as the Tower, the site itself is far older.

Wallow 2008-05-19 02:32 PM

Too old, I can't compute that far...

Lenny, does this describe your treatment of Americans? Do you, in fact, hate the hell out of all of us?

Willkillforfood 2008-05-19 04:27 PM

Do you still call us the "colonies" as I've seen many-a-time on t.v.? :P

Lenny 2008-05-19 04:34 PM

Damn straight. You wouldn't believe how often we discuss the colonies over our afternoon tea. We find your leadership contests worthy of a chuckle every once in a while. Good show, chaps.

You know, I personally haven't met any Americans in real life. To me you're all mythical beasts. For all I know, Zelaron could be part of a four year high. However, there isn't much good feeling towards Bush and his bloody-minded "war on terror" in the country, and you wouldn't believe how much we more upper class citizens ridicule the bible bashing peoples in the American bible belt.


Edited by Lenny, Brit 
Actually, tell a lie. I nearly bumped into a fat American couple in Wales once. Gods, they were obnoxious. We were visiting a nice castle and we could hear them drawling away in an ear-destroying accent from across the turrets.

Heeyyy hun-ney, look at the tow-er. Isn't it amayyy-zing?
