2. spite!
I can never find threads that are just "Okay, Young, but not so young, voting age, first presidential election you can vote in, check in!"

So I'm checking in despite the fact that I'm 20.

8. I'm moving away from the illegality..
Edited on Sun Aug-15-04 11:21 PM by PittPoliSci
Not because it's illegal, but because I don't have any money! Plus, I'm trying to be a little less harsh on my already strained body.

**on edit**

What's your favorite drink?

I like liquid cocaine. It's a shot of Jagermeister mixed with a shot of Goldschlager Cinnimon.

29. my grandfather...geez...
some of the shit that man did would turn me white...

He chewed tobacco since he was a teenager.
He smoked cigars, ciggarettes, and pipes (tobacco only!) since he was a teenager.

And, from the time he was retired on, he ate an entire cake EVERY DAY! The man loved cake, lived to be 87. I was impressed.

Now you know why I'm trying to eliminate the alcohol, unnecessary calories, don't want heart disease like he had.

31. All old men love red meat.
I've never met someone over 80 who was a vegetarian. I'm sure the exist, just not in surburban Pittsburgh where you can practically buy meat on street corners and farmer's markets.

Edited on Mon Aug-16-04 03:00 PM by deadparrot
Can't wait to escape my conservative Catholic HS and go to college. Don't get me wrong, it's great school, and most people are very nice, but it can get pretty frustrating when only five people in your class share your views. I'm taking US politics this fall, so it'll be a pretty intersting election season. When I get to college, I'm joining the Young Democrats ASAP. It's a must in my college search.
