Point taken. I have the same problem (not noticing sarcasm in a post), so that was fairly hypocritical of me. However, I am not an "internet warrior". I practically discovered the internet last year, and now only use it for email, news, and BoS.

I was being sarcastic, you dushe.

Articulate as ever, BBJ. Why do you dislike Bhutto? I do not have extensive knowledge on her, so it would be interesting to hear your unbiased account of her life.

I read that about a month ago; didn't know it would be so good. Just found it on the shelf. Currently, I am reading one of the Sherlock Holmes short story collections. Love Sherlock Holmes.

Maybe my post would have remained of a "higher order" if I hadn't used the phrase gronk, or perhaps, in your opinion, if I hadn't indirectly referred to you as a gronk. Secularism refers to the separation between laws and religion, not everyday life and religion. What it should mean is that...

Anywho, I used to do quite well in Geography, if i recall correctly, but hated it to bits. Something about moving bits of sand just didn't excite my interest. It was the only subject which could have excursions more boring than its lessons. Once we went to the beach and all it was, for 5 hours...

2-3; usually if I wake up late and don't have time for breakfast.

Say what? Why on God's green earth do you hate free periods?

It seems like a lot of people are legitimising Sarkozy's actions by saying a.) It's not an issue of religion, but of the oppression of women. b.) France is a secular society, so such expressions of religion can be rightfully banned. Anyone who has been saying both of these arguments is a...

I hate the idea of that break between receiving your marks and your ATAR.

I don't think you need to do Bio to get into Medicine. I'm pretty sure need to do Chemistry though.

My Gran died, and that fucked me up for over a month. However, I didn't want to cheapen her memory by asking for consideration. It's not that I disrespect those who do ask for consideration; I just didn't feel comfortable with it. My parent have been divorced for a long time, but the half-week...

You're quite racist, now, aren't you? "Islamic extemist is to Islam as KKK is to Christianity". Just a thought. EDIT: First person to tell me where this comes from gets rep.

Quite appropriate. What sort of law is Sarkozy planning on introducing? "You must show no less than 10% of your skin"? Quite apart from my quarrels with its prevention of Freedom, I don't see any realistic policy being introduced without specific mention of the burqa, which would mean that it...

Meh. I don't know the names of half the people in my year, despite having been with them since year 7. Some of the people whose names I do know, I wish I didn't. I like my friends, and without them probably would have switched schools ages ago. The quirky teaches (eg my ex-millionaire physics...

Whether you believe it is the right thing or not, telling people that they can't wear a piece of clothing is an obstruction of civil liberties.

As long as it's biodegradable.

I am an atheist, douche bag. All I was saying that the banning of burqas, whether or not it is a good thing, would limit people's freedoms/civil rights. Personally, I agree that the burqa is detestable; a vile symbol of the oppression of women. HOWEVER, banning the burqa would not be an act of...

Yeah, you keep telling yourself that.

They've got something better to do. Smilies, dude.
