-
B) COOL! I was the first to notice! Razz OH YEAH!
-
I noticed too. Razz
I've been watching that calander for months.
-
Happy B-day Mike, and hey where are you and SPydey of FFXI? Just wondering Razz
-
Sorry Zeros', I haven't been on the last week or so. Been very busy with my job and other things. I'll definately try to get on this weekend, if not before. Last time I was on I de-leveled my character back to LV21 Sad
-
Congrats! MJH has finally hit the big one-o!
Now, just another 11 years and he can start drinking (legally).
=P
-
He's 18 not 10! Laughing
Heh if he was in Canada he could drink now! Laughing
-
Hmm, so in US you can drink from 21? In Poland, from 18, but that's still too high as most people drunk heavily in age of 16 (me? what me?).
Happy B-Day MJH!

Canada's drinking age is 19. Quite a few people drink before the legal age here in the US as well.

I probably won't be on FFXI for a little while as well, i formatted the drive windows was installed on (mainly to fix the error in that it misreported free space). But i also needed a refresh. So i've gotta reinstall FFXI, though i have a plan to save 90% of the update time....rename original directory (still exists on hd), install to default on that drive, delete, and rename the old one back.
I always keep separate partitions, a smaller drive for windows, a larger partition for all apps....allows me to format and reinstall windows with more ease.
-
Sounds like that'll work to me. I'd do the same (partitions) but I hate having to change the install directories of everything when I install it...I don't know, partitioning would probably save me a lot more time in the long run...
-
Looks like MJH has more important things to do than party his adulthood away Wink
-
? How is formatting your hard drive "more important things"? :blink:
-
Good lord, dense as a plank of wood. Twas but a subtle sarc on the line, kiddo.
-
Hmmm...Confuseing post there Mr.Vamps. This is geting off topic BUT that's okay because MJH's B-Day was yesterday...or the day before....I don't remember exactly...
-
yesterday.... look at your first post and the date on your clock... :rolleyes:
-
:rolleyes: Oh yeah...
-
No no no. FFXI is on a different partition from windows, as are most all the apps i install. What i meant was just rename Playonline to something like -Playonline and let the game install to the normal directory, then just delete, and rename -Playonline back to normal. The only time it spends updating is an update check.
-
Right...I got all that. I just don't like having to take the half a second to change the C to D when installing software, that's why I don't partition Razz

Canada's drinking age is 19. Quite a few people drink before the legal age here in the US as well.
Hmm... I live in Canada and I could of sworn it was 18. Razz
-
Tis 18! Me KSNiloc would know, for we are Canadian!
-
I lived in Washington state for most of my life, about an hour south of British Colombia, and I was always told it was 19 :unsure:
-
"My mom says it's 19 but she isn't sure. But maybe it is in Ontario..wait I don't think we have different laws in Provences, because it's only like that with the so called..."states"
-
No it's not....the drinking age is 21 in all 50 states.
-
*nods in agrement with spyder*
-
Yeah, but alot of laws change. I do belive in some states gambling is agaisnt the law, it isn't anywere in Canada, infact there would be nothing wrong if I just stared gambling right now!
-
there is a lot of freedom for the states to control their own laws, and yes, the drinkage could be different in some states, but generally, all 50 states are now on 21. There was a time when New Jersey was 19 for legal drinking, but people coming over from Pennsylvania to drink, proceeded to drink and drive, cause accidents, and NJ decided to raise it to 21. This was some 10-15 years ago no less.
-
Ah! I see. Makes sence I supose. NJ is smart for doing that, changeing it to 21 n' stuff. I hear over in Belgum or something the legal drinking age is 14! Now if you excuse me, I'm moveing to Belgum! Laughing I kid! I kid!
-

lol so kids can gamble there??? this will help me on my vacation choice as I am th emaster at black jack!!!..... and Mabie not spwelling.

In the UK you can drink and vote at 18, and smoke and have sex at 16. What I do not understand is, what is the point in achieving adulthood in installments?
-
Hmm, strange, as far as I understood in Poland, you can have sex from age of 16 but watch porn from age of 18 Laughing
That is, I guess, you can have sex from 18 years, but doing so from 16 years is not a crime or something.
Or is it that all things, sex, smoking and alcohol are from 18 years...? Most propably. I get confused.
In practice, I've seen children smoking in age of, hmm, 10-12. In fact, that's even somehow common.
-
Canada
Legal age to consent (intercouse and oral) = 14
Anal = 18
Drinking age = 18
Smoking
To Buy = 18
To Smoke = 16
Sypder, as far as I know, BC is 18, too. But that's that the good thing about BC, (Editor: Censored) marriages are legal there. Smile
-
In the US, you can smoke at any age, but you have to be 18 to buy ciggarettes. Sex is different with every state. http://www.ageofconsent.com (http://http://www.ageofconsent.com) has a chart showing what ages are legal for what states.
-
Canada
Legal age to consent (intercouse and oral) = 14
Anal = 18
How the hell do they enforce that?
-
The same way they enforce the normal sex laws. If somehow they find out you had anal sex before 18, you get in trouble for it.
-
If I ruled the world...
Drinking: 16
Smoking: never
Sex (any type): 13
Voting: 16
Candidacy: 16
Tax paying: 16
Basically, I believe that adulthood begins at 16, with no staggering. The reason sex is at 13 is that, as populations get better and better fed, puberty is coming earlier, in females especially.
-
For me...
Drinking: 18
Smoking: never
Sex: 16
Voting: 16
Candidacy: 25
Tax paying: 15
Saying that people should be able to have sex at 13 because puberty is coming earlier is ridiculous. Just because they're going/have gone through puberty, does not mean they are responsible or mature enough to have sex. IMO, even 15 is pushing it, and any earlier than that, there are probably some serious problems with the individual's life that they're having sex so early.
16 for candidacy? Although you may think of yourself as mature enough as a 16 year old, wait until you get older. I can't even imagine anyone at my age (22) trying to run for mayor, let alone governor, president/PM, etc. As a leader, you must command respect from those you lead, and at 16, I imagine that would be impossible.
-
The problem with laws forbidding sex before a certain age is that they are nearly impossible to enforce, and people have sex anyway. The only direct result is that when a girl gets pregnant she is less likely to admit it until a quite late stage.
As I have said before things should mainly start at the same age. I do not see the point in being able to vote at one age, and be able to be a candidate later, would that not increase apathy? Young people are not voting enough as it is. Also, tax should be at the same time as voting and candidacy. There are several precedants for this. In the war for American independance was the slogan not "No taxation without representation"? Also, in the UK, when women wanted to get the vote they pointed out that they paid tax. People who pay tax should have a say in where it goes. Currently in the UK you can vote and be a candidate at 18, but you start paying tax at 16.
Also, when it comes to whether people are mature enough, there is little difference between the ages. The old want higher pensions and better health care, the young and parents want better education, especially the young. If anything, the people who currently vote have more self interest than those currently too young.

If I ruled the world!
Drinking: 18
Smoking: 20 (but I would illegalize tabaco and legalize marigwana)
Sex: 13
Voting: 17
Tax paying: 20
Very Happy Heh!

If I would rule my country (not the world, if I would rule the world, people will live in tribal communities occupying city-states or wandering like nomads, worshipping pantheistic God and living from hunting, fishing, foraging, farming, sheeping/shepherding [is there such a word?] or trading)...
Drinking: Depending on age in certain amounts. Let's say begin at age of 13, allowed amount is minimal, then it increases according to age until certain limit.
Smoking: Same as above.
Sex: Either from 16, or depending on lenght / size of your sexual organs.
Voting: If I ruled this country, there wouldn't be democracy, I would be the ultimate emperor, the head of the only official religious cult and leader of military, politics and economy.
Tax paying: Always, but only when you work. So simply at the age you start working.
-
Sex: Either from 16, or depending on lenght / size of your sexual organs.
Not that this wouldn't be a dumb law in the first place, but what about women? How exactly do you measure the length/size of their sexual organs?
-
Don't ask. Cesque would probably find a way. Razz
-
I don't want to know how he will find out! Laughing
-

As for the lower part, the depth (or the interior space), as for the breasts, total mass of both.
-
*drools* Oh sorry....you just made me start thinking of stuff Laughing Razz Laughing !
-
No comment.
-
:blink: Then why did you post?
-
In certain circumstances, "No comment" means more than just "No comment".
-
Haraldur is right. In certain circumcisions, no comment means more than just no comment. Razz
He meant he's not gonna comment what you said. Like censorship. Whatever.
-
It was actually like the "No comment" politicians and people like that say when they are hiding something. As if they were asked a difficult and compromising question.
-
Oh. Good, then. B)
-
btw, it's cicumstances, not circumcisions

Yes...heh...it's a very odd phenomenon...

Ah is good. I just made a teeny little topic celebrateing your B-Day, because I'm the coolest nicest dude the world! But you see, since I am the guy who always changes the topic it is tradition that my topics must always change! But since that is a crime on these fourms, and I could possibly be punished for changeing the subjects all the time...then....HAPPY BIRTHDAY MJH!
