I didn't couldn't watch the whole thing. The impression I get though, is that it's a new driver behind the wheel, not that it excuses their behaviour. I can relate, to an extent (not the hitting cars part) because basically the first vehicle I drove was a pickup truck with a cap on the back. The extra length of the vehicle, plus the reduced visibility (the cap made it significantly harder to see behind) does make things extremely difficult - especially for a new driver. Many times you would see me trying 2... 3... or more times to get into or out of a parking spot.

Write sequentially or 'whatever comes to your mind'?
advocatus diaboli replied to Warrior1's topic in Writer's Circle
I find my method is to write out a general 'plot road map', where I figure out the major points I want to hit in each chapter. Then from there... I wing it. -
Discrimination.

What's been going on with me and why I haven't been around
advocatus diaboli commented on Thorn Wilde's blog entry in The Fantastic Mr. Wilde
I'm proud of you. -
I already knew all of this, but it's still neat to see it explained. It's absolutely staggering if you think about how the internet actually works at volume.

My father pretended to be fine with it but trash talked me behind my back. My mom genuinely doesn't care.

Lazy words do not pick up women.

Newfoundland is the same way. -
Good advice in general. Not sure how relevant this is to (most) people here.~

Sounds great. I find the best way to help me write is to have somewhat of an outline already made, saying which direction the story is headed. I usually only plot out the major points in the story, filling in the gaps with whatever creative/divine inspiration I get.

The question I think you need to ask yourself is what will come of such a degree? What job opportunities are there with a degree and how available are those opportunities?

Today marks the one hundredth anniversary of the empty ship that saved the human race arrived. No one knows, to this day, where it came from. The Ark, as it came to be called, was exactly what mankind needed in their darkest hours. Living in the world we are blessed to be in now, it may be hard to believe the struggles and turmoil faced by our world and the people in it. Hate and fear ruled the Earth. Greed was the motive behind every action and no one could trust another human being. Every

Random things that I write that don't really fit into any other story nearly.

"This interview tomorrow is so important, it'll open up so many doors." I paced back and forth, as much as possible in my tiny little kitchen. "Take a deep breath, everything will be fine." *beep* *beep* *beep* The left over pizza was ready. I pulled it out of the microwave, sat at my one seater table and enjoyed my late night snack before bed. When I was finished, I lazily put the plate in the sink and went upstairs to get ready for bed. Finally, with a sigh, I collapsed into my s

“We used to be friends!” I yelled at my attacker, as he slammed my head into the locker. The impact sent me into a daze, so I could barely hear his response. “Yeah, used to. I got serious fucking beef with you. We have some serious issues.” “Do it!” yelled one of his friends. “Hit him again.” another piped up. “This is hilarious!” added another. “This is all a misunderstanding, just let me explain it to you, Lester. Please. I’m begging you.” He let go of me and I could see him thinki

Hopefully other people have further hularity to share, so this isn’t a one-off thread. Either way, though, do the following: 1. Open Google Translate 2. Type “……” 3. Translate from English to Japanese 4. Plug in a pair of headphones 5. Click “Listen”

Why I'm Not Patriotic
advocatus diaboli commented on advocatus diaboli's blog entry in advocatus diaboli's Blog
He's not perfect, and he isn't not homophobic, which isn't something I'm overly fond of. However, the media is going out of their way to attack him and portray him in a negative light. They don't (completely) make everything up about him, but they're not giving fair, even, unbiased coverage. I fully acknowledge that Ford id a walking PR disaster - I've said as much, even before the crack scandal. However, he's pissed off a lot of left-wing politicians and this is a smear campaign more then anything else. -
I'm proud to be Canadian, but I'm currently not proud to be a Canadian, at least not domestically. Why? Well: Federal Government 1. There's the ongoing Senate scandal. Senators on suspension are having criminal charges placed against them for, effectively, stealing tax payer money. Many things have happened as a result of this: a. The NDP want to abolish the Senate completely. They feel as if it's a complete waste of time and energy. The Senate is so muddled by party politics that nothing is getting done, so just get rid of it. b. The Liberals kicked out all their Senators from the party. Two things arise from this: i). If you think they're not still Liberals in everything but name, you're silly. ii). If you think Justin didn't see criminal charges coming against Liberal senators and is distancing himself, you're silly. 2. Harper. I don't even know where to begin. He just needs to go. His time is up. Period. 3. Justin. Firstly, he's riding on his father's coattails politically, I think. He came out of nowhere and suddenly he's federal leader? What? How did this happen? The other thing, is he doesn't know the difference between his opinion personally and his opinion as a politician. When asked what country he admired most, he said China. Why? Their dictatorship-like structure allows them to move quickly and get stuff done. Words do not describe. Provincial (Ontario) Government 1. Kathleen Wynne. I don't even know where to begin. Unelected. Scandals. No regard for tax payer money. Just... wow. 2. Andrea, the provincial NDP leader. Proping up Wynne's government. Why?! I'm embarrassed - ashamed - to consider myself an NDP because of this. Municipal (Toronto) Government 1. Leave Rob Ford the fuck alone. He was elected to be the Mayor of Toronto, for which he is doing a fine job. He was not elected to be the Moral Compass of Toronto. If he doesn't want to go to Pride? Fine, no problem. I don't blame him, I don't want to go either. Norm Kelley is a tool, also. --- Our government, on all levels (I image other municipalities and provinces have it just as ad) is so broken it's embarrassing and laughable. Can we hurry up and just have the entire system crash, so we can start over? Pretty please, with a cherry on top.
