Kez 2,727 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 you were born in 1991? surely not in 1931... and considering your daughter was borin 2000, I highly doubt you had her as a 9 year old So, what do you mean?Yes 1991! But no I don't have any childrenNot to my knowledge anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe 10,861 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 classic me... I mistaked Kez for BluesChick btw, metal goats sounds very hardcore and rebelish to me. I suggest we form a metal band consisting of only people born in 1991 (and '31) and call it Metal Goats. We shall wear costumes made only of sheep wool.

All that knowledge will go to waste. Learn, have a career (if not be considered a parasite to the society), die. In fact, if to go deeper with this philosophy, then I do think that life is meaningless and that you start dying the moment you are born... which isn't necessarily a bad thing, not everything has to have a grand meaning, but pointless nonetheless. A smart corpse is no different from a dumb corpse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinese Zodiac - RatPersonalityOccupying the 1st and most prominent position on the Chinese Zodiac, the Rat symbolizes such character traits as wit, imagination and curiosity. Rats have keen observation skills and with those skills they’re able to deduce much about other people and other situations. Overall, Rats are full of energy, talkative and charming but they have a tendency to become aggressive.Rats are full of good advice but they will never share their troubles with others. They are honest individuals and they enjoy living for the moment. They’re also capable of surviving any situation.HealthOverall Rats enjoy good health. They’re very active which helps keep them in shape and able to fight off sickness. They can at times be tense, aggressive, and full of nervous energy, conditions which can lead to stress. Regular exercise designed to calm will benefit Rats.CareerExtremely perceptive and wise, Rats can focus on the big picture. That ability along with their good judgment enables Rats to solve problems before they arise. Rats focus on titles because titles translate into status and money; two motivating forces. Rats make excellent bosses. Routine halts their creativity so Rats need flexible positions that allow creativity. Good career choices include: administrator, director, manager, entrepreneur, broadcaster, writer, musician, stand-up comedian, politician, lawyer, researcher, and race car driver.RelationshipsRats are very charming. They enjoy social activities and because they’re out a lot, they’re always meeting new people. They aren’t good at breaking off relationships however, and this presents problems going forward with new relationships. Anyone hoping to partner with a Rat must be able to keep up with the Rat’s active nature.Also, I'm fire rat. Fire Rats enjoy being spontaneous. They enjoy traveling and taking on new tasks and will take on practically any new project or adventure simply to avoid any sense of routine and monotony. They’re zestful, spirited, and giving individuals who are well-liked by others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait for this circus to be over.And yes knowledge can be taken away. They can do a lobotomy, fill you with mind-numbing drugs or beat you till brain damage and you're nothing but a vegetable.
