I'm so pissed off at my parents. I need one of them to go into work late to drop me off at the train station since my car isn't starting. The only way I can get to the NYC LAN this weekend is by train, especially since my car is dead, and my parents are refusing to drop me off. They are telling me to walk, in the WINTER. I just checked on Google maps and it's 2.5 miles! It's only going to be like 34 degrees F on Saturday! Then they have the nerve to tell me I should take a cab if I don't want to walk like I'm willing to pay that after committing to a 10 dollar train fare EACH WAY to attend the event, not to mention the cost of LAN + Food in Koreantown. No way in hell am I doing that. I have to wake up two fucking hours earlier for them to drop me off and now I'll have to wait in NYC for a couple of hours by myself! Total Bullshit. I kinda got pissed and yelled at them and called them "miserable bastards" or something. I mean they deserve it but they probably will give me an even harder time now.
The reason why my parents are being such assholes about this is probably because of my grades recently. I'm taking two math classes, and I'm failing one. The other I'm probably running like a low C. You know how Asian parents are... they are like "how can you be so bad at math?" I just can't understand standard deviation though. I did okay in calculus but statistics is raping me because I don't find it as interesting. Can you guys help me with this assignment? I probably could figure it out if I focused 100% but I'm so pissed off now that I can't even concentrate. My homework is due Friday at noon and has the following questions: 1) Compute the standard deviation of the following set of data <excluded> 2) How many entries are located at least two standard deviations away from the mean? 3) If an entry is selected at random, what are the odds of it being within one standard deviation of the mean? I can't even skip 1 to try 2 and 3 since you need to know how to calculate standard deviation in order to do the later parts. There are a few more questions but I won't bother pasting them unless you can explain to me how I should do 1-3. Any help would be appreciated.
I haven't blogged in a while so I'm going to ask for help with a completely unrelated issue. I'm in desperate need of girl help. I don't currently have a girlfriend and there's this really cute Korean girl in my class. She usually sits alone and I always sit directly behind her (it's a big lecture hall by the way) but I don't think she's noticed yet. I'm not sure how to approach her. What should I do?
To make matters worse I'm having trouble with my computer. It's going really slowly and I think it needs more ram. I don't want to have to open up my computer to install/replace any physical parts. Isn't there an easy way around this? I remember people saying you don't have to buy RAM but I don't remember what the solution was. My computer is actually getting pretty old though so maybe it's time for me to get a new computer. You guys know a lot more about computers so here's what I want you to do: build me one. Tell me what parts to get, how much they will cost, etc. My budget is about 450 dollars and it needs to be able to run all of my software.
I actually have some good news though. I played a bunch of ladder games during the TSL2 on ICCUP. At first my rating was going down because I kept losing to cheese and other stupid bullshit but by the time I reached about 400 points I figured out how to put those noobs in their place and I started winning some of them. I leveled off at about 550 points with a winning percentage greater than 50%. I am really proud of my pvz because I managed to win 3 out of 9 games even though it's the most imbalanced matchup by far in broodwars. I mean wtf? There's about 500 things zerg can choose to do at any moment and I'm forced to forge cannon cannon nexus into zealot archon +1 rush every single time. It's the stupidest shit. I'm also pissed off at terrans. I swear they are the most bm pieces of shit. Like half of them would refuse to 'gg' when I won or would 'gg' before me if they were winning. One of them said to me "Du är en bög" but I don't speak any Korean... what does that mean?
Before my car died I was driving to the gas station the other day and someone cut me off while I was on an icy patch and I almost crashed into a brick wall. Only in America...
One other thing I'm hoping you guys can help me with... I have to write an essay for admission into a program, and I want feedback on my idea. The prompt is for us to write about a chance meeting I had with a person unexpectedly and how it changed my view of the world. I'm thinking of talking about how I learned to put others ahead of myself from my mom. Is this a good idea?
Thanks for reading and I hope I get some responses real soon. By the way I'll be pissed if you harass me about my OP instead of providing me with good solid feedback/answers. That goes especially for you >1000 post veterans... I have high hopes for you TL don't let me down.
PS Isn't the tl layout pretty dated? It's in need of a major overhaul. Not only is it ugly but it just CRIES 2002. Get with the times. Also, when the hell will Blizzard come out with SC2? I'm getting old here!
PPS For my social studies course I need to define some key terms but I don't know the answers. Since many of you have been through this before you probably already know it so it's much easier for you to tell me than for me to find the bolded word in the textbook. Care to help? The words are democracy, republic, communism, and monopoly.
edit: DeathSpank grow some balls
edit2: Who the fuck rated this 1 star like 20-30 seconds after I made the OP? You can't POSSIBLY have read it that fast.
wow youre such an ungrateful asshole, your parents BIRTHED you man. I hate people with no perspective like you and would never ever consider becoming your friend. If I ever see you in person I will berate you on your lack of perspective. Completely unacceptable.
2.5 miles really is not all that bad. I'm only walking about half that, I hope it doesn't put you in a bad mood .
I'm really too young to answer the other shit; but as for the girl I guess an obvious one is force some sort of conversation asking about the class, if you don't talk then that is probably a good starting point since it is an obvious thing you have in common. gl getting answers

34 Fahrenheit? Isn't that like 1-2 degrees? Try walking 2.5 miles in -35 degrees here in Alberta. Anyway sucks to be in yo- wait a minute....................

Cmon Micronesia, a troll consisting of a combination of paraphrased trolls? You must be more creative than that if you were able to invent that circle diagram thing that your dad uses as a pilot.

1. the more effort you put into going to the event, the happier you will be when you get there? 2. the cold can only help you be more awake when you get there? 3. calling your parents miserable basterds isn't really necessary...

Walking to the NYC LAN isn't bad, although it is about a 20 minute trek. There are buses that go there, I forgot which ones, (Q13/Q28?) from the 7 train on Main Street.
Skating there isn't an option, unless it snows, but then again it's NYC, and everything turns to slush quickly.
OMG WTF MAN. AREN'T YOU A GROWN MAN. WHY ARE YOU SUCK AN UNGRATEFUL COCKSUCKER? YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO WASTE YOUR 100000TH POST ON A COMPLAINT BLOG ABOUT HOW YOUR PARENTS THAT BIRTHED YOU AREN'T WILLING TO RISK GETTING FIRED SO YOU CAN PLAY AT SOME GAY LAN? WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE ARE YOU SETTING ANYWAYS? YOU THINK YOU CAN MAKE A STUPID BLOG BECAUSE YOU ARE A FORUM VET? HUH DO YA? WELL THEN FUCK YOU.

also it's funny how i hate calculus and am much more interested in stats
standard deviations and distributions is ezpz, its like the easiest part of stats; and btw from the questions you put up it sounds like a high school course to me or a watered-down first year uni course. assuming that you're talking about the normal distribution and not some other distribution, just use the 68-95-99 rule... 68% of all samples will fall within 1 SD of the mean, 32% of all samples will fall outside 1 SD of the mean, 95% of all samples will fall within 2 SDs of the mean, 5% of all samples will fall outside 2 SDs of the mean, 99% of all samples will fall within 3 SDs of the mean, etc... it ain't that hard buddeh.
if it isn't the normal distribution, and a set number of samples along with the actual values of the samples are provided, then say so and i will show you how to calculate the SDs and mean values and expected values of those distributions according to your data. + Show Spoiler +
actually i gave your blog a two out of five, not a 2/10!!!! no worries dude!!!!!!!!!! =o =o =o =DDD
Micronesia anyone who knows you, knows this couldn't be you. It just doesn't sound like you at all, and the complete give away is I know you aren't that bad at sc!
Oh god, just finished reading it lool. Oh and, you're white i'm pretty sure so there's that too.
Holy crap, this is like a super blog challenge, where you must fight challenges from previous blogs again like in most Mega Man games. In any case, I suggest DT dropping; that usually solves everything.
hi kiddo, sorry me and mom couldn't give you a ride to the station we didn't know it was going to be so cold and that this was so important to you. It's cute you like this girl! tell me more about her when we see you next. love dad

I was swiftly accelerating from zero to apeshit. As my eyes trailed along the text I recalled the five or so miles I had to walk to school every time I missed the bus. I continued reading and began thinking about how I'd throttle such a whiny brat to get a round trip to NY for twenty bones considering what I'd spent on previous trips to get there. A few hours in a parking garage can quickly add up to more than what I spent on gas to reach the state. With hesitation I proceeded onward, reaching the requests for homework assistance & relationship advice, when my bottom-left eyelid ceased the irritating pulsing that had began seconds before. I stopped myself from reading any further, sighed deeply, and grasped healthy helping of face within my palm.
Not bad, but it wasn't strung together smoothly (or incoherently?) enough to keep me raging to the end. Otherwise I might've ruptured an aneurysm.

Yeah I was taking this seriously until.... I saw who posted it! Stfu with the damn skating, most annoying thing ive seen on TL since that boy who posed as a girl and blogged about some bs accidents.
that "u gotta skate" guy is so fake, i wonder if that was also part of micro's troll or it was a mod messing around? If you take a look at the guy's profile after you read his first post here, you realize how obviously fake it is and it ceases to be funny.

[Verse 1] First got it when he was six Didn't know any tricks Matter fact First time he got on it he slipped Landed on his hip and bust his lip For a week he had to talk with a lisp Like this Now we can end the story right here But shorty didn't quit it was something in the air Yea He said it was somethin' so appealing He couldn't fight the feelin' Somethin' about it He knew he couldn't doubt it Couldn't understand it Brand it, since his first kickflip he land it Uh Labeled a misfit, abandoned Ca-kunk, ca-kunk, kunk His neighbors couldn't stand it, so He was banished to the park Started in the morning wouldn't stop till after dark Yea When he said it's getting late in here So "I'm sorry young man there's no skating here"
[Chorus] So we Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Coast And the way he roll just a rebel to the world with no place to go So we Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Coast So come and skate with me, just a rebel looking for a place to be So let's Kick, and Push, and Coast
[Verse 2] Uh, uh ,uh My man got a lil older became a better roller (yea) No helmet, hellbent on killin' himself, was what his momma said But he was feelin' himself Got a lil more swagger in his style Met his girlfriend, she was clappin' in the crowd Love is what was happening to him now, uh He said I would marry you but I'm engaged to these aerials and varials And I don't think this board is strong enough to carry 2 She said bow I weigh 120 pounds, now Lemme make one thing clear I don't need to ride yours I got mine right here So she took him to a spot He didn't know about Somewhere in the apartment parking lot, she said I don't normally take dates in here Security came and said "I'm sorry there's no skating here"
[Chorus] So they Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Coast And the way they roll just lovers in the twine with no place to go So they Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Coast So come and skate with me, just a rebel looking for a place to be So let's Kick, (uh uh) and Push, (yea yea) and Coast
[Verse 3] Yea uh, yea, yea Before he knew he had a crew That weren't no punk In they Spitfire shirts and SB Dunks They would Push, till they couldn't skate no more Office building, lobbies weren't safe no more And it wasn't like they weren't getting chased no more Just the freedom is better than breathing they said (they said) And they escape route, they used to escape out When things got crazy they needed to break out (they'd head) To any place with stairs, any good grinds the world was theirs, uh And they four wheels would take them there Till the cops came and said "There's no skating here"
[Chorus] So they Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Coast And the way they roll just a rebels without a cause with no place to go So they Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Kick, Push Coast So come roll with me, just a rebel looking for a place to be So let's Kick, (uh uh) and Push, (yea yea) and Coast

I didn't even realize this was necro'd "Determining from the fact there is no old post sign" I come here sometimes whenever im bored or whenever I need to skate to the city.
Ahaha this is amazing, it led me to read Zulu's legendary blog, which I'm still not sure if it was a troll or not. But this blog did give birth to one of the truest of truths in TL history:
