abuseAbout the "too good to be true," I get that all the time. I turned in a poem for The Publication once, and the teacher called me to her class to make sure that I had written it. I felt a bit proud of myself then, but I was a little insulted as well. It's a bittersweet moment.

Ah, the racist bastards! I've seen them. I've also seen the people who think they're oh-so "gangsta." -shakes head- I try my best to ignore them. I'm through with trying to change their opinions. And I do have a soft spot for Dickens, but that's beside the point.

One note on slang - In the UK, "**" is a perfectly acceptable term for a cigarette. In the US, it is an extremely offensive term for a homosexual. Just thought you'd like to know - some words can change dramatically in context of region.

abuseGreat rant, although I love Jane Austin ahha. But I agree with you, it's stupid to assume blacks don't read and ** like that. Keep it up.

abuseYou've got talent and a quick wit for sure, and that's a congratulations there. However I find the rants to be a bit uninspired--though funny nonetheless--and hardly of anything that, well, a typical fourteen year old wouldn't rant about, really.

Maybe you should try your hand out at something a little deeper than all this?

abuseI empathize on the teachers thinking you have 'too much' talent thing. I like to entertain myself by saying they're just jealous. And I always love finally proving to them that I wrote a stupid paper myself.

Good luck on the entire ordeal. Hope the '**' gets whats coming to her. :D

As for your bra envy: if you really want to, stuff the bra with those weird fillers, but stitch it in, so it doesn't fall out or people don't rip them out. XD

Print out those pictures of those ** and post the pictures all over the schools, especially by the admin's office.

BTW: Gin isn't the god of all drinks. Call me old fashioned, but a ton of beer supercedes everything else. ^_^

abuseEh, you're wrong on one point: All intellectuals are ASIAN. ;P Well, nice rant and ease up on the booze next time, eh?

abuseI believe the child in America was named "Shithead" and the parents were trying to convince the media that it was pronounced "Sheet-hi-ed."

I'm loving your rants.

abuseI've had to deal with snobbery, but its usually layered with references to Mafia contacts and who knows which Blood member. I've had people use all sorts of stereotypes against me. You would not believe the idiotic things they come up with...

abuseYes, us Americans have some crazy names, and do some crazy things as well. It's interesting to see what the rest of the world thinks of us.Hmm,maybe its time for change.

abuseI love that. I really do. Especially the part where you rant about people using bad grammar. Journalists in my area are now using chat-speak in their articles for newspapers. Its really sad.

abuseThere's something distinct about your 'rants' that I simply cannot get away from. What is it... oh yeah! They're funny as hell!

Your writing contains a dry and acerbic wit that makes me wonder what it would be like to hear you speak for real. It's great how you don't pull any punches.

I haven't read that many stories where the author ends up in some crazed mental loop while they have lengthy conversations with themselves. But then again, encountering such literary drek on the first page of some epic bit of fiction would send my mouse pointer to the 'close window' button almost immediately.

Self-inserts are really nothing more than mental masturbation and very few people would want to watch someone else jerk off. Why would anyone want to read about it? I think I'll leave that alone for now...

I'd go on about 'OC's, but I really should get back to my own essay on 'How Not to Suck While Writing FanFiction' :-)
