    XP is a smiley-turn your head 90 degrees (if possible, that might be a bit painful come to think of it...) and you might see it. The P is like :P
    That's what I thought it was from the beginning, I just wasn't sure--usually, if I use smilies like this, I just put a hyphen ("-") between them to show a nose, perhaps (and no, that whole thing in parenthesis itself is not a smiley, despite what it might look like :)) ). I.E., "X-P," when you tilt your head sideways to the left.

    It's just that usually when you see the letters "X" and "P" in sequence, you think of the Microsoft Operating System! :))

    That's nice of you, and I appreciate the effort, but you didn't have to change it for me! ;)

    Anyway, I think we're in need of a new topic. So . . . How about each of us tell about the one worst day that we've all had.

    Mine was when we decided to move across the country and we arrived at our destination . . . We decided to move from Florida to California, and we were going by this stupid road map that I had paid a whole $2 for. ;) We thought we were headed for Douglas City, a town that the map had listed a population of around 93,000. When we got there, however, we found that we had driven, according to the trip odometer, 3,071 miles to . . . Not a city with 93,000 people, but an RV park that had one gas station/convenience/grocery store (all-in-one, might I add), a post office, and a laundromat. . . . And a sign that said "Population 60--give or take a few."

    We were in a little "city" in which if you looked around, you could see mountains, mountains, and more mountains . . . And a farm with roosters crowing. :)) Not only did we look like idiots with two brand-new cars full of stuff and with Florida license plates on the bumpers, and we were standing in a little farmer's village with my very nice, yet incorrect $2 map. ;) :))

    I can still remember the farmer drive by in his pickup truck looking at us like we were crazy. I remember proceeding to get out of the car, taking my $2 map and tossing it accross the road and stomping on it for all to see. :))

    By the way, it was a NASCAR Race Schedule map that showed you how to get to the race sites. Also, it was for the year 2002. So if you see it, . . . Be sure to stay away!! ;)

    poor Fox...

    my worst day...my there are a lot of those....
    most recently, It was the day when I realizd that I really liked this Guy at school, who not only is a senior and only vaugly aware that I exist, is an actor, and therefore considered "royalty" alongside some of the jocks and the films students...and I am too shy to talk to him...and my friend knows him really well...and she has a habit of pushing me at him when ever he passes...it's really embarassing.

    the worst by FAR and no, i have never forgotten:

    I was 6, and at a park in Boulder with my mother. I had a big pastry, I forget the kind, but they were mu favorites. anywho, I had set it down, under the understanding that mom would be watching, and went to play. when I came back, my pastry was no where to be seen, and mom was not looking at me. I asked her where it was, and she goes "mice took it", and indeed they had, because I saw it far underneath the bushes and about 5 mice around it, eating. Damn those mice...*shakes angry fist*

    Lol, interesting...

    You could eat a mouse, that'd teach them! I'm sure you could find somewhere to get an edible mouse, whether or not it would actually be eatable I don't know!

    That's not a bad day! A bad day is when you find it harder and harder to "like" a person at all, or to not have friends to push you into that person you like (not to embarass you, but to help you break the ice), or a bad day is when people stop pushing interested parties into you in order to get your attention

    Gosh...to be back in high school when things were so "bad"
  • PendragonPendragon ColoradoPosts: 2,640MI6 Agent
    oh sheesh...I'm a shy person....lol....and I realized it's near impossible for me to "score" a relationship with him...it's sad to me :P

    Hey! I was pretty shy in school myself, but when I did finally got the courage to talk to somebody I like, it became easier and easier to overcome my shyness.

    Since you have already resigned yourself that it's "impossible", you've really got nothing to lose. Talk to the guy! Let your friend push you and go flying into him at full hilt. Knock him over, send his books flying, and make everybody around you laugh hysterically.

    At least then you will have something to talk about...and he'll never forget you ;)

    Very good advice! I remember just recently, when I asked a girl out! She told me she was "grounded" (a likely story 8-) ). Luckily, I found out later by overhearing a conversation between her and someone else that she wasn't really my type. ;)

    Now if only I could find someone else that I like--finding a girl in high scool that is as elegant as a Bond Girl is extremely rare, these days. No offense meant to anyone, of course. :)

    Somewhat of a random question(in relation to the xp one), anyone know what these symbols mean?

    <3
    xoxo
    x0o
    (-P

    Might be a regional thing though. However, I've only seen girls use them.

    And Pendragon, as a bit of advice, here's a good quote.

    "He who hazards nothing, gains nothing"

    Which basically means, you might embarass yourself talking to the person you like, but you have a greater chance of success.

    I'm guessing that the "xoxo" is simply the old shorthand for "Hugs and Kisses". Darned if I know what the xOo means, though...probably something a little kinkier.
  • Jedi MasterJedi Master UKPosts: 1,093MI6 Agent
    Yeah probably, I have a couple of questions regarding one of the earlier Superman movies (don't think it was the original). It was on TV earlier (British terrestrial TV), the one with Zod demanding that the president kneel before him, then calling Superman the son of Jessol or something.

    Anyway, has anyone else noticed that they cut the spike off the top of the Chrysler building in New York City (as in it just wasn't there). Why is that?!

    And, is the evil sidekick (the one with the beard who didn't say anything, rather just grunted) the same man who plays Owen in The Vicar of Dibley?

    I'm 90 sure it's not... And I can't answer the Chrysler question. Man, I should rewatch Superman a.s.a.p.

    That helps, I wonder what simply xo is.
  • PendragonPendragon ColoradoPosts: 2,640MI6 Agent
    well, it could be a face, like, eyes closed, mouth open type thing...and i think x0o means kiss, big hug, small hug...possibly...

    and thank you everyone, for all the advice, I'm trying darned hard to get my courage up to talk to him on monday...X-P it's gonna be funny...something like this most likely;

    Serena or Sarah: OMG there he is! *shove*
    Me: *goes flying at Haris*
    Haris: oof!
    Me: o gawd *under my breath* sh!t!
    Haris: huh? hey I recognize you...
    Me: *blush*
    Haris: what's your name again?
    Me: uhhh....*long pause* Kelsey....
    Haris: oh...hey!...*goes away to class*
    Serena or Sarah: *laughing*
    Me: *blush* shut up...no seriously...STUFF IT!
    Rest of people around me: o...k... *go away to class*

    Oh, come on, now! I'm sure it will go better than that! Have confidence, and I'm sure it will be all right! So be yourself, be proud, and allow me wish you Good Luck! :)

    By the way, JM, I haven't the foggiest about the spike on the Chrysler Building. . . . I've never actually been to New York, but I would imagine that it might have to do with the safety of planes going by overhead. But as to the true reason, I really don't know.
  • Jedi MasterJedi Master UKPosts: 1,093MI6 Agent
    No no there is a spike on top of the Chrysler building, but in the film it's edited out, what could it have to do with planes?! The shouldn't fly that low over Manhattan anyway!

    As a New Yorker, there is a spike on the Christler Building. It's only aesthetic though, it was put there just to make it the tallest building in the world at the time.
