What the fuck is wrong with you people? Must we go through the whole "Just ignore him, damn it!" thing again? Didn't you learn anything from the last time? There is nothing you can say that will deter him, there is nothing you can do to convince him, anything you post in direct response to him will only encourage him to keep trying to get under your skin. He is a parasite that feeds off of your reactions and will continue to bother us until every last person stops reacting. If you are that bored, here's a list of things to do: 1) Reread the books. Again. From the beginning. Come back when you are done, and if you finish within a week, start over. Keep reading until you are absolutely convinced that Lanfear is dead and in no way could have killed Asmodean, and then post your evidence. 2) Count the number of times any female *sniffs*, and then make a list of the different words used to describe the *sniffs*. 3) Make a list of all the different Aiel clans and Septs, then cross reference it with every Aiel we have been given personal information on in order to see if there are any Aiel we know of that Rand might be related to. (say, first or second cousin) 4) Write down all the different sword forms mentioned, and then try to figure out the movement involved with each form, and then go practice them all until you think you might be close to becoming a Blademaster. Then go get a few practice swords and start randomly challenging people on the streets. Avoid people in long overcoats. 5) Buy every copy of _The Eye of the World_ you can find and pass them out to strangers on street corners and at Bus stops. 6) Study everything said about *ji'e'toh*, and then force it on to the first person you run into by making them *gai'shan* 7) Pick a topic: A) Abortion B) Gun Control C) Vigilante Justice D) Death Penalty E) Organized Religion i) Christianity ii) Mormonism iii) Islam iv) Buddhism v) Hinduism vi) Jehovah Witnesses vii) (insert other religion here) F) Cloning G) Darwinism and Creationism H) Newsreaders Now, go research your topic. Pick a stance, make a statement. Find evidence for and against your statement. Post your statement, and be ready to defend it. 8) Take up a hobby, like blindfolded sheep shearing. Make it into an art form. 9) Go to your nearest auto dealership, ask to take one of their cars for a test drive, then drive the car to the same type of dealership in another state. Take the salesperson with you. 10) Walk around your local town picking up every piece of trash you can find, act like you've found some long lost childhood treasure and then put it in the nearest garbage can. Then bill your city for clean up service. 11) Find a mirror. Look at yourself in the mirror. Decide if you really like who you are as a person. Make a list of all the things you like and dislike about yourself. Tell yourself that you are going to change those things about yourself that you don't like, and that you are going to try and focus more on the things about yourself that you do like. 12) Rinse, repeat. 13) Go fly a kite. 14) Go cut the strings on the kites that other people are flying, and announce that you are from the "Rights for Kites" Foundation, and that kites deserve freedom, too. 15) Write "I will not respond to any of Student's postings" until your hand cramps up so bad that you can't type a response if you wanted to. 16) Plan world domination. Start small. Plan how to take over your town and defend it from possible air strikes. Implement your plan. 17) Go buy a bunch of happy face stickers and then proceed to put them on the bumpers every parked car you find. 18) Start a real life "Rights for Kites" Foundation. Petition Washington. 19) Get two VCR's and every one of Leanardo DiCaprio's movies in which he dies, and make a "Leanardo dies" music video. 20) Using a dictionary, find really obscure words that you have never heard used before by anyone, and then do searches on the internet utilizing different search engines using those words. Repeat your search in Deja News. When you're done with one, pick another. They should keep you busy until late November/early December. -- Kid Probability drew@cats.ucsc.edu NOTICE: Any person following these suggestions does so by their own free will and can not hold Andrew Gillmore responsible for damages to personal property or bodily harm, lawsuits, monetary loss, sanity loss, or strange looks that you may incur by doing any of these actions.
