kYd Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 You know, its kinda cool to see that society has progressed beyond the gay bashing that was standard when I was a school. It's still standard..believe me! I guess it's because you won't find any chavs on a site like this, their the ones to blame for it :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melodic Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 ahhh the chavs...the bain of society...well even 'grungers' mock you for being gay at my school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 You know, as soon as you get to college (UK education system, 16+) it stops. Mainly because the first person I saw taunt a gay guy at my art college literally lost his front teeth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technologique Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Hee, as was said in my old school... "You can be gay here, as long as you don't go shoving it down people's throats." ... Don't ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kYd Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Yeah college doesn't get many people like that, I've got like one or two in my class but other than thats it's pretty cool. Secondary school was full of them - so immature. Don't know how I coped. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Kitchen Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 thing is, we're all geeks. if your not, how the hell did you get here? anyway, geeks by definition are cool intelligent people. and a lot of us have grown up online, where religion, race, sexuality, or nationality don't mean jack. What matters is I've got an IP address, you've got an IP address, and through network voodoo we're all here on planet Earth. btw: wess is straight but and i think it's awesome he has a few fanbois. makes for good mic-check material. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Kitchen Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 where religion, race, sexuality, or nationality don't mean jack Modification to Hacker's Manifesto anyone? come to think of it, your right thats probably a subconcience inspiration. For anyone that hasnt seen it: Another one got caught today, it's all over the papers. "TeenagerArrested in Computer Crime Scandal", "Hacker Arrested after Bank Tampering"... Damn kids. They're all alike. But did you, in your three-piece psychology and 1950's technobrain, ever take a look behind the eyes of the hacker? Did you ever wonder what made him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have molded him? I am a hacker, enter my world... Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most of the other kids, this crap they teach us bores me... Damn underachiever. They're all alike. I'm in junior high or high school. I've listened to teachers explain for the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction. I understand it. "No, Ms. Smith, I didn't show my work. I did it in my head..." Damn kid. Probably copied it. They're all alike. I made a discovery today. I found a computer. Wait a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to. If it makes a mistake, it's because I screwed it up. Not because it doesn't like me... Or feels threatened by me... Or thinks I'm a smart ass... Or doesn't like teaching and shouldn't be here... Damn kid. All he does is play games. They're all alike. And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a board is found. "This is it... this is where I belong..." I know everyone here... even if I've never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again... I know you all... Damn kid. Tying up the phone line again. They're all alike... You bet your ass we're all alike... we've been spoon-fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak... the bits of meat that you did let slip through were pre-chewed and tasteless. We've been dominated by sadists, or ignored by the apathetic. The few that had something to teach found us will- ing pupils, but those few are like drops of water in the desert. This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons, and you call us criminals. We explore... and you call us criminals. We seek after knowledge... and you call us criminals. We exist without skin color, without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals. You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals. Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for. I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this individual, but you can't stop us all... after all, we're all alike. +++The Mentor+++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
