I'm grounded to "prevent myself from getting bad grades"

I'm pretty sure he is the one
also tool isn't an adjective js

You haven't heard of the slang term "tool"?

He has, but it's not an adjective. It's a noun. You can say "You sound like the biggest tool that I've ever seen on these forums," or you can say "You sound like the biggest spoiled rotten child that I've ever seen on these forums," but using tool before spoiled makes it an adjective which is incorrect.

You do realize you're trying to correct someone on the use of slang right?


Still doesn't change the fact that you're acting like a friend.

Slang or not, it's a noun. Just like friend. You wouldn't say "You sound like the biggest friend, spoiled kid I've ever seen on these forums."

tl;dr $trinick's theory is wrong(widely disagreeable), therefore we simply shouldnt listen to him, even though his theories make us all very upset and we feel we should say something about it.

ITT: trinick is going through his edgy phase

More like kids vs edgy. One person is giving over top posts with larges amounts of text, the other is just a few people with an actual argument surrounded a mob of bandwagoners that just says "that's stupid/Too edgy" with no real counter arguements. Which one of the many reasons people hate our forum so much.

You click on a link to forum, beyond the link is a forum. A forum of angst and edgy teens. A forum of big ego's. A forum of flame wars. You move into a website of both pixels of debates or dismissive posts you just crossed over into the Blockland forums.

except it is too stupid and reeks of edginess.

By the way, where did this word edgy come from? I heard once like way back in 2007, now all the sudden everyone is saying it.

What a screwdriver.

ITT: everyone taking trinick's weird statements seriously for some reason

fixed


anyways, OP, get better grades. show them that you ARE capable, and then everything will go back to normal.

I don't actually see how what I'm saying is edgy at all. From what I can discern, being edgy is thinking you're cool by doing something outside of the social norm. I don't see where any of my text even hints at me trying to be cool, I'm literally fighting with all of you. That's pretty much the exact opposite of cool.

beating up your parents or whatever rebellious stuff is ohsoedgy

beating up your parents or whatever rebellious stuff is ohsoedgy

I never recommended beating up your parents, as I linked earlier this is called the straw man logical fallacy. I simply said that my response in the event of a severe beating from my parents would be to defend myself. I don't even see why any of you have a problem with this, self defense is a perfectly reasonable response to someone threatening your well-being.

Also, if holding a belief that isn't normal is edgy, then that entire word is absolutely pointless. I guess being politically independent is edgy. Riding a motorcycle is probably also edgy, that's outside of the social norm. Almost everyone drives cars. Look at all those edgy teenagers who enjoy classical music, what tools!

I've actually learned quite a bit from this topic. I actually agree with most of Trinick's points but at the end of the day it comes down to different styles of parenting.

nothing really edgy about it, but I disagree with taking a rebellious approach.
