Eken got it (so did Mark, but I wanted the subshells too, even though I forgot to mention it
) -
That's cause they're movies. The entire point is to look cool

I actually don't have a problem with going to school. I enjoy most of my subjects (english being the clear exclusion... it's basically repeating what we learn in swedish the week before
), so it's pretty fun That doesn't mean I like that we have...tests! Ugh! -
For all the ones that are against abortion, when does the sperm/egg (can't remember the name for it right now, so you'll have to live with this
) become a human being? And what defines killing? Is the death of cells considered killing? Then think of how many cells cutting yourself kills. Also, it might be a good idea to remember that a fetus does not have a brain to start with. It takes a while for a brain to be formed. If you don't consider it a human until after that, why not allow abortion before it happens? If you consider it a human before the brain, what makes it a human?

Just like every language, english evolves. Personally, I don't much care for grammar in any language as long as it doesn't go overboard or isn't legible. I'm not saying you shouldn't use formal language in formal texts, but in an essay or such, if you don't completely follow the rules of grammar you can actually get a richer language. Think about putting an exclamation mark right in the middle of a sentence, for effect. There's no other way to get that effect, and since it's clearly understandable, what's so bad with it?
I'm of the opinion that the written language is less important than the spoken language. Why? Since that's the "original" and allows for more natural conversations, while written language is always comparatively stiff.
Back on the idea of grammar and correct use of language... Isn't language used to convey a message, feeling or such? Does it really matter how that is done, with correct grammar or not? Are you reading the text for the grammar or are you reading it for the content?

It's an alkali metal

Seeing as that IP doesn't even work for me, what is it?
-
You must assume that time exists to make such an assumption. Or maybe I'm misreading that.
Anyways, never heard of the A-series before, so that's cool
-
It's crime and punishment.
New question;
What is the electron configuration of Ca?
-
First off, if it's a vacuum, that's a part of something larger, then time will exist. Time still exists outside the vacuum, and since time, to me atleast, is universal, time would also exist inside the vacuum.
Removing the outside though, and thinking that there's nothing, but a vacuum, I'd say no. That relates to my original answer, that time is something that allows us to observe change. In other words, without change, there is no time.

Happy B-day

It's not a religious book. It was written later than 1500.

I don't even know the difference between the formats...I just use whatever comes up as standard

Woot!
Um, let's see... which is the second most read book in the world, after the bible?

1980??? I wasn't even born then

Nope. I don't know how, and I don't really feel a need for a faster comp right now (I will though, when 0ad is out
) -
AoC and I own AoM (not TT). I'm extremely bored of aom though, so I'd rather not play it.
-
And that's all there is to know about you
I think you're from southern Norway, but I'm not completely sure on that. The rest has been said

That's a whole bunch of frogs

Trust is the main thing methinks. Of course you have to have fun together as well (which usually means similar interests and such), but the main thing is definately trust.
