When I was old enough to start mowing the lawn, my mother would always make me wear a bandanna over my nose and mouth. I think she wanted to prevent me from inhaling the exhaust from the lawn mower, but it only succeeded in making that chore even more miserable. |

5/24/2016 5:51:47 PM Posted: 1 year ago Ummm... my dad didn't let me say the word 'poop' (in Cantonese) for a while. I kept saying 'history' to annoy him (because the second syllable is the same as the one-syllable word 'poop' si2). Fun times :P
I think it is well established that the only reason aliens come to earth is to slice up cows and examine inside peoples' bottoms. Unless you are a cow or suffer haemerrhoids I don't think there is anything to worry about from aliens. - keithprosser Don't be a stat cynic: http://www.debate.org...

5/25/2016 1:03:22 PM Posted: 1 year ago Not really sure if this would be weird, but:
I'm not allowed to miss any school at all, my parents booked a flight back to China on June 10th (the last day of school of the school I'm attending in the United States) to make sure I would arrive back to China on the weekend and be able to attend school on the following Monday. My parents also told my host family that I only could miss school if I was in the hospital dying. |
