Dude, relax. It wasn't meant to be a "cool thing". It's the truth, and it's funny. And I've been burned plenty of times by plenty of people and entities, believe you me.

Jerrad, My family wrote the book on wastitude. My mom quit high school because she didn't want a reformatory school diploma and got a GED. My Dad quit college when he graduated high school at 16 and could have done anything only to go back to community college years later, my brother didn't go to college and he's well not anything good, and my sister dropped at last year and hasn't been able to pass her GED. SO you see the rebellion thing only got my family into a series of weird happenings and now we're like 50,000 dollars in debt and I might not be able to go to college so I mean do what u want but try to at least do t he right thing for every1.

Yes, Ahmed Johnson did work at the nursing home this summer, and yes he did want to quit. BUT... I did as well, and I will tell you one thing right now. I made a much easier time of waking up early and working for twelve hours a day... wanna know how? I was the worst employee that the nursing home had ever seen. I was a half hour late my second day. I fuckin' hated that place. I mustered up my resolve and tried to be the worst worker possible. Many times I said to Ahmed Johnson, "I'm trying to get fired." I really was. The only reason I didn't was because I made more money then God. I fuckin' missed work, called off, showed up after not sleeping all night, left after twenty minutes, slept on recliners in the shower room while no one knew where I was, smoked when I wasn't supposed to be on break, rearranged my breaks so that I could cheat the time clock out of extra minutes, stole food, slammed beverages constantly, played mind games with the residents, ate the security guards food on the way to deliver it, messed up orders, slagged people off, made fun of everyone, including the owners, slipped my two weeks notice four days late through a mail slot, came to work hungover, taught one of the residents about Bongzilla and made her say "I only drink Bud", told the same resident I went back in time and pushed Jesus, walked around for hours when I should have been washing dishes, made the Eagles do all of my work, left early, and just generally wasted three thousand dollars of that nursing home's money, which I blew on strippers, records, an amp, and a bunch of trash. Ahmed Johnson can testify to everything I just mentioned. Go to school and just do it real half-assed. If I didn't get fired, neither will you. IDONTWANNAWORK -Jizz Wow,thats real impressive,Steve-o... good thing nobody is dumb enough to take heed to that. Man... that is quite possibly the saddest philosophy on life I've ever heard. I'm just sitting here thinking "How can someone actually believe that?" Hard work and honesty pay off in the end regardless of what the jizz thinks... I've got a little philosophy of my own that goes along with this: Don't listen to anybody whose nickname is a bodily fluid "fuck the world" --2 pac

All those things steve said were true ... and some days I hated him, when he would leave work and we'd be short and I'd have to stay and slave away ... but then somedays I'd love him, before he got there I was miserable but days when he was there we'd just get into ruckus situations and slam things, and just roam around for hours not doing what we were supposed to, and my mom would have to page us to get us back to the kitchen. We really could do whatever we wanted and since my mom is a nice person to me and steve, she would just be like "ok" and the eagles would have to do all the work. So thanks Steve, for helping me slack off and have fun at work. Jerrad, I now think maybe you should quit school. If you are passionate about being on your own and getting out of "hick town" and you think high school can't get you there. Then go ahead and try it your way. But don't cry and wine and run home if you fail. I wish you luck if you choose this path.

I'm not dropping out per say, rather "transfering" and still getting a deploma.I apreciate your concern. First of all I'm not all that inteligent so I can't get a great partime job Anthony. I do have plans to go to collage just not imediatly. Also stop the anti-Steve hate. It discust me. I go against a few of the thing I once told myself I wouldn't do when I'm with you guys. I make this sacrifice because you guys are awsome and don't show hate towards me.(I'm begining to wonder now, If you can go anti on a long time friend like steve what chance do i have if I don't "fall in line") I'm not becoming a waste, just doing something different. Of course, it seems that there is no differance in your eye.You have suceeded in thuroughly confuseing me though. I still have awhile to decide my fate.

Nope Mr. Bierce, he was simply making a witticism that meant we are concerned for your well being and hope that you don't end up dropping out and stuff.

so your saying I have no common sense, goals, self-respect, or free thinking ability. ,,1, Why is it that you take all this out on me? It seems that I'm the only one u act remotely hostile towards when everybody has advised u against dropping out. The only reason I said that is because Less Than Jake is a band that is widely known... You get so defensive over a mere pun. What exactly is ur problem with me as oppossed to everyone else?

jared, the "anti-steve hate" was there for me before this. this just boosts it. and it isn't really hate it is just disagreeing with mostly anything he says... HPTOTHERESCUE
