What (if any) books would you ban from a high school library? Are there certain subjects that you feel are inappropriate for teenagers regardless of literary merit?


View 1434 Answers



Keep all books. If you ban it, it will ignite more interest than if you didn't.

There should be guidelines that teachers adhere to when choosing books for mandatory reading in the classroom. "Push" by Sapphire (for example) should probably be left to college students and not high school students.

10/31/09 11:16 am - Writer's Block: Would you talk to the dead?

Have you ever participated in a seance? If not, would you consider it? What spirit would you summon and what question would you ask them? Do you believe we can get messages from the dead?


View 673 Answers



No, and I would not consider it. If spirits have a message they wish to convey to us they will let us know in other ways. Most people who attempt to summon spirits have no fucking idea what they are doing and it can cause problems. You don't know if you are going to get a benign spirit, a good spirit, or a malicious spirit. You also don't know if they will leave when you ask them to, or if they will stick around (not everyone is comfortable with spirits around). They have a mind of their own and no physical body to tie them down, no social constraints, and no one to answer to. They do what they want and if you don't like it you shouldn't have messed with them.

Yes we can get messages from the dead, not just their spirits, but also by studying their life, the things they did, the lessons they learned; and draw conclusions from it.

If a friend or relative makes a racist or homophobic remark, do you tend to confront them or let it slide? Are you more likely to confront them if it offends you directly or someone else who seems reluctant to speak up?

HELL YEAH I WILL CONFRONT THEM!!

There is no need for that bullshit! Confederate flags piss me off too. I've seen bumper stickers that have the Confederate flag on them that read "It's not about hate, it's about history". Like I buy that shit.

And discrimination against gays by not letting them marry? Who are you to say they don't love each other and shouldn't be able to get married? Are you worried they will defile the sacred institution of marriage? Bullshit again! The divorce rate among married couples is so high that straight people have defiled it without the help of homosexuals. I don't think allowing gays to marry would make any difference, except that now you can get more taxes from them under the marriage penalty taxes.

I was a senior in high school and we were going to a friend's house to videotape a scene from Hamlet that we had to act out. We were doing our version as "Scooblet" with (a huge) Scooby-Doo toy being Hamlet. Well our friend lived with her alcoholic boyfriend in Bum Fuck Egypt, and the only way to get there were really curvy bad roads.

He was sober when we got there, we took Amanda(the friend)'s and Kristy's (group member) cars there. After we finished filming, we were heading to the church where Kristy could edit the raw material. Well Amanda was tired and wanted to stay home. Kristy's car wasn't big enough for 3 more people, so her boyfriend William decided he would get us as far as Central Hardin High School, where most of our cars were parked.

Only problem was that he had about 4 beers before this and was still drinking. Amanda said he'd be fine, but we were kind of weary. Julie (group member) volunteered to ride with William
(Amanda's drunk ass boyfriend) while Kristy, me, and someone else(don't remember their name) rode in her Toyota Corolla. William brought some more cans into the truck with him for the ride.

The roads from Amanda's house were curvy, narrow, and had steep dropoffs... William being drunk as he was, took them around 60-70 mph. Kristy kept honking trying to get him to slow down so she could follow, and we swear we saw that truck of his hop up on two tires a few times. It was dark and we were scared he was going to kill himself and Julie.

Well, we finally got to Central, and Julie couldn't have looked more relieved. She said that he was drinking all the beers he brought to the truck with him, and that there were beer cans all over the floor from previous drinks.

We didn't go to the church that night, we all just went home (I took Julie home since she was too shaken to drive) and thought about what kind of holy hell and dumb shit we just went through to get our assignment done.

What is the longest uninterrupted period of time you've ever watched TV? Were you alone or with a friend/partner? Do you tend to watch more TV when you're happy, depressed, or simply bored?


View 719 Answers



I don't watch TV at all. Sometimes I watch movies, but that's it. TV is a waste of money and waste of time.

I read the newspaper, listen to the radio, and look on the internet for the news.

The last time I actually turned my TV on with the intent to watch was back in early 2007 when I was delusional with a 103 fever getting mono. I watched comedy central.

9/28/09 12:46 pm - Writer's Block: Mirror, mirror

If you broke a mirror, would you worry about bad luck even if you're not superstitious? Would you walk under a ladder or cross a black cat's path on a dare? Is there anything you're superstitious about?


View 968 Answers



I am more a believer in Karma than in Superstition.

If a mirror breaks... bad luck from cleaning it up you can get cut.

Cross the path of a black cat; might trip over it, it might have rabies and bite you, fleas and ticks that jump on you, feline AIDS or Leukemia that you take back to your own cats.

Walk under a ladder... don't be mad if it or the person on it, the things they are carrying fall on you.

Sometimes I wonder if superstitious beliefs rose out of common sense gone wrong, or left to fester in the mind of a madman.

Have you ever participated in a boycott? What did you boycott and why?

I currently boycott Hartz Pet Products.

I have been for a few years now, ever since I bought some Hartz "Aspen" pet bedding which gave my gerbil a pretty nasty allergic reaction. He'd never had an allergic reaction to Aspen before, and this aspen looked/smelled different but I figured the company knew more about wood than I did. $75 later and some Benadryl later, Eclipse was feeling better, but the Vet I took him to told me to NEVER use that bedding again.

There is a website about boycotting Hartz pet products. There are also a slew of Rip-off Reports and blogs that encourage boycotting Hartz.

A Pet company that kills pets is not the kind of company I'm going to give my money to.
