Naamah D. Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 That's like saying Facebook is problematic, or texting. I really don't see how it's any different! It's not. People rip on me for playing Neopets and Console games, but they spend their entire life in front of a TV watching American Idol, Glee, and the Royal Wedding?!?! One time I went to school and a teacher asked me "Did you watch the Royal Wedding last night?" and I said no. They said "Were you too busy playing video games to care?" Ugh............ Quote
Manta Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 That's like saying Facebook is problematic, or texting. I really don't see how it's any different! Well said! :D Way I see it, everything in life is a waste of time; we might as well waste our time with things we enjoy :laughingsmiley: Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Whatever. to each his own, right? I would never expect somebody to understand that sort of thing because people are generally so predictable and so close-minded. they feel like they should be interested in the royal wedding because of all the hype, but are they really interested, really? I don't think so! at least people like us, we actually are interested in the things we indulge in- neopets!

Naamah D. Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 I'd much rather be playing with my Neopets or one of my consoles than watching TV. To each their own. I'm buying a new video game next month, yay! Quote

Omg every time you post something about what the people in your life say, I want to jump through the computer and PUNCH THEM!! Seriously! I hate people. Please, next time someone says something like that to you, punch them and say "That's from Manta!!" :angry: It really bothers me how hypocritical and self-important people are Besides, who cares about the royal wedding :laughingsmiley: I'd rather play neopets than watch any wedding Quote

But the "Were you too busy playing video games to care?" was just mean in a smart aleck way. Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 I'm buying a new video game next month whiichh and what console?? One of my friends just moved and dusted off the old Gamecube. So much fun! Quote
rachiee Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Besides, who cares about the royal wedding :laughingsmiley: I'd rather play neopets than watch any wedding I know, right? I didn't understand the hype about the royal wedding- a few of my friends gave me flack about that, I was just like "lol it's just a wedding calm yourselves." Maybe I'm a little biased because I've never been to a wedding, but even then, I wouldn't care unless one of my close friends, relatives, or even fictional characters were getting married. *shrug* Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 haha. I know some of my friends were so excited they woke up at 6am to watch it Quote
Manta Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 haha none of my friends cared about the royal wedding xDD Then again, i also rarely talk to people IRL :P Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 bahh same heeerrree!! besides, nothing at 6am can matter to me all that much Quote
rachiee Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The only thing that matters to me at 6am...well, nothing, really- except for the sunrise. xD There's also nothing worth watching on TV at 6am...just countless reruns, paid programming on every other channel and repeats of the six o'clock news. I'd only get up at 6am if I had to go to school or anywhere else at a really early time. =/ Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 actually my favorite show only plays at 6am! but it's not new or anything so Im not really gona get up to watch it when I could just sleep in and stream it later... But there was a time when I couldn't sleep at night and that's how I discovered my favorite show! Wow so 6am life is more important to me than I previously believed.... Quote
Manta Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The latest I stay up is generally 3ish...because that's when it's NeoMidnight :P But I don't think I'd make it up till 6 on any ordinary day :rolleyes_anim: Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 oh yeah that's neomidnight for me too end of the month late nights! Quote
rachiee Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 My Neo-midnight is at 3am too. It sucks being a New Yorker if you want the Deadly Dice avatar or if you want the Halloween sidebar. Sadly, I haven't been able to stay up that late and get either of those things. I tried to get the Halloween sidebar in 2008, but I fell asleep around 12:30 and woke up at 6:30 in the living room watching Noggin. XD Well, lately, I've been staying up until 10:30 or 11. It takes me a while to fall asleep because...often, my thoughts keep me awake. o_O I also think there's a weird noise coming from my old, haunted laptop in the closet, haha. It's obviously off so I guess I'm just hearing things. :/ Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 yea I have trouble too. I can easily stay up til 1 but at that point I crash, and it seems like Ive made it sooo close, but Its not even good enough to stay up til 3, you have to then do your thing! gahh ESTTT!! Quote
khaos Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 I usually stay up until 1:00- 2:00 AM. except fridays, because the net day i have soccer, so i got to sleep at 11:00 then. EST. Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 hmmm it appears we have found ourselves a nice little EST crew! Bigups to Canada, anyone else?? Quote
:)Doc Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Im CST. Making Neomidnight (2 am CST) is pretty easy for me. Except for today; I was at a water park all day and now am terribly exhausted :laughingsmiley: Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Im jealouss, our weather is no condition for water parking! rain for days (n) Quote
:)Doc Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 We need rain. Our grass is almost completely burnt and we're only a few days into summer :P Quote
Ruto Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The last rainstorm we had knocked over trees! I wouldn't mind more rain, but not something that bad! Quote
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 our rain doesn't really last or get too strong, but it will be cloudy/overcast alll dayy long- or for lots of days, then only rain like twice. not fair, I need the sunshine! Quote
:)Doc Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 I don't need any sunshine. I've burnt like 3 times already :whistle: Quote
