    Now that I think about it, writing it behind the actual price sounds much more logical, seeing as that's how you pronounce it...

    I have no idea, but metric is so much easier (coming from someone who has used both). Come to think of it, everything Europeans do with numbers and stuff is more logical than our system...XD

    We don't even use or learn the Imperial System in schools anymore. I only know how to use the metric system, except for easy stuff like 12 inches to the foot and three feet to the yard. I can recognize some measurements though. And the only conversion I know is ounces to grams (28 grams in an ounce), and that's only because drug dealers buy their pot buy the ounce and then sell it by the gram, so I figured it is a good thing to know. So yeah I think when the current generations, who more or les only understand the metric system, grow older we will convert to the metric system.

    What? We always use the imperial system in our school. Hell, the only thing we use the metric system for is in science and even then we use the imperial system.

    On the note of not asking anyone out because all the guys in school hate you...
    dafuq?
    Tell them that unless they're suckin your cock they can screw off.




    You asked a girl out. That's nothing to be tormented for. You gave a few girls in gym a ball. Again, NOTHING wrong with that. Its not like you went up to them, "Hey ladies, you can play with my ball, if you know what i mean <;P". And if everyone in you're school is weird, be...'normal' and give them a reality check by doing so. Also if you want a girl, get a fedora. Bitches love fedoras.

    But you immediately know what your are reading is a monetary value.

    That will stop later in school. What I have found is that since we Americans use a different system, I am much better at conversions then others because I know both systems off hand.

    Chicks dig Gs.

    Don't tell me you actually believe a twelve year old when he tells you that everybody in school hates him over some shit like that. What's more believable, that everybody in school hates some kid because he threw some girls a ball, or that a weird kid with no friends over reacted to a situation and thinks everybody hates him because he is a whiny bitch.
    I dunno, it's a tough one.

    Bro, I haven't used the imperial system since some vague point in time in elementary school.

    Who is?

    Don't get me wrong, it could very well be that. however none of us know the whole story, i mean, he could have been rejected by his parents when he was younger and suffered from depression without even realizing it, and it could be set off by minor incidences like this. But you could very well be right, it could just be his immaturity. Either way i just tried giving an answer that might help should he be giving us the correct information, and, besides his age/immaturity, i see no reason not to believe him.

    Wait, Wait......My parents love me very much and I have a few friends but not too many. Shaw you can't tell me what happened. My friends are ignoring me right now, don't tell me what happened. You weren't there. You aren't a 13 year old teenager at St. Charles Catholic School named Atticus Williams who loves a girl so much he would die so that she could live on. So I am going to give you a royal "Fuck You," and be off.

    I think it's cus his dad must be either not there, or a total pussy, because he obviously hasn't had a strong father figure. And that's the most important part in raising a boy. Otherwie you'll turn into a pussy like this kid. And I don't believe because the story is just so unbelievable.


    This is what I'm talking about.
    And I know because I've been in a pretty similar situation to yours in the past. For a long time. And at some point, you just gotta toughen up and stop giving a fuck. That i when you will see changes.
