I can name a few books (Battle royale) and movies (the running man, Turkey shoot) that do the same thing off the top of my head.

I'd say it's one of the few aimed at teenyboppers sure.

Edit: don't get me wrong I think it's cool and all.
G1 Transformers had an episode that did that same thing too. It had Optimus' best quote!

"Amazing...a Booby trap that actually catches boobies...."

Just hearing him say boobies made everyone LOL.

Originality's overrated anyway. Quality of execution is where it's at.

Damn it! Went out for a walk around the lake with a friend, we took our kids. We saw an owl on a low branch and stood only a few feet away from it and when I went to take a picture "Picture cannot be saved. No memory card inserted." F-K!! Left the memory card in the computer! Then we saw the beaver swimming around not to far from the path we were on...Some really pretty birds and flowers and I couldn't take a picture of any of it!!

Was traveling through jade forest the other day when i saw a lvl 85 warrior try to take on one of the named and he was getting his bum kicked... I offered to help him kill it, and he invited me.. and then he put loot to Master.. normally that would not bother me but i said i would like it to be grp loot incase it dropped something for my alts i would like a shot at it through rolls..

he called me a whore and cursed alot.. so i left grp and ignored him...

other players sometimes :( if i was the one who needed help and i have been i would never put loot to master or insult a person who was trying to help me :(


small satisfaction in seeing the name making porkchops out of him... i did not kill the name afterwards.. well cause im not that kind of person and he took it down later with help from guildies...

I can't even count the number of times I've done this tbh it's a pretty embarrassing number lol




Other than the universe flipping off my shopping plans for the second time, I don't have much to actually rant about; today was rather nice...
(Other than my job hunt being a pain in my ass but that isn't something new.)

I am super excited to get my new laptop. It's powerful and fast and runs all the big games and... I... need... to install... everything. You know, it's a good thing it'll arrive a day before my art class in LA, because I need to spend that day installing everything. x.x

Oh god that's the worst. Had to do that last year. You forget how many programs you take for granted! But you learn stuff too like that you need the quicktime player before you can export videos as quicktimes XD

my "tiny little pink thing" of a vacuum works better than your 10 year old piece of shit and i was just picking up large clumps of onion skin before vacuuming bc it would get stuck in EITHER vacuum and cause problems if i didn't

so yeah i'm gonna laugh when your shitty thing gets clogged bc you thought my vacuum just wasn't powerful enough to pick things up (◡‿◡✿)

Lots of anger and swearing and rawr and blood and guts ahead:

Two weeks left of living in these halls and NOW you decide you want to be my friend. Well, listen up buddy, I don't want to be yours. You can offer me free shit all you want but it's not going to change anything. You're a creep. You're a complete and utter creep. First, you decide to ask my brother if he wants a one night stand with you on your *second day* of being in the hall with him and finding out he's gay. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?! No one wants a one night stand with you, you fucking piece of shit. You claim to be bisexual but you're probably only doing that for attention. Second, you continue trying to get to him even after he's told you no no NO. Are you freaking retarded? STAY AWAY FROM HIM.

And now... STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!! The other day, for no reason at all, you come into my room and you *stay in my room* even though I've told you three or four times to get out because I want a shower. Now, I was trying to keep the peace with you until I moved out and then I'd never have to properly deal with your bullshit again, but I might've just given up. I don't wanna sound really arrogant or anything, but it's obvious to everyone that when you got dumped by your imaginary girlfriend the other week and craved attention afterwards, you started hitting on me straight away. Maybe it's because my other straight friend moved out and even if she was still here, she was here with her boyfriend anyway, and my other female friend is a lesbian with a girlfriend. I have freaking a fiancé who's moving down here in August and I'm sure he'd LOOOOOOVE to find out what you've been up to, you fucking moron. Seriously, you're a twig, and he'll fucking beat your ass.

Stop posting things on my Facebook wall, it should be obvious I don't give a shit when I don't comment on them. Stop asking me if I want to go to town and not anyone else, because there's no way in hell I'd go to town with just you. And you wonder why me and Tiff don't invite you to the cinema anymore? YOU'RE A FUCKING CREEP. I left a duvet cover outside my door yesterday because it got badly torn and, without even asking, you took a chunk out of it and used part of the fabric to put around your freaking creepy fetish dog collar. Yeah, I was gunna use that, thanks, you freak.

Get me out of here. Two weeks left of your bullshit. Don't expect me to tolerate you any longer, I had to do it for 8 months and I've drawn the line now. I really have.

P.S. I'm *so* well aware you stole my brother's Game of Thrones pin. It can't have been anyone else and he knows it was there one minute and gone the next. That thing was expensive and I *will* find it.

Wooooooah what kinda freaky-deak's you got living near you. Sounds just like a guy I know. Like....they could be twins or something they're so alike. He was convinced I and my friends all wanted him because he sat near us and our friend Dan in my mythology lecture course. He told my friend Morgan that whenever she had sex she'd think of him because he's a cocky and arrogant asshole like Iron Man/Tony Stark and she LOVES Iron Man(more than anyone I know). He'd find excuses to try to like touch our hands or shoulders or always imagined we needed him to console us. He was a MAJOR CREEPER.

Ew wtf. That guy sounds even worse to be honest. There used to be the odd time he would try and touch people's legs and stuff and it was so damned creepy we just straight out told him to stop and he didn't do it ever again, thank god. But he doesn't stop all the other weird shit he does and all the bullshit crap he comes up with like the 49503495834 different ways he's lost his virginity. >___<
