Well, I do like jokes, trust me. My Senior Year was me cracking jokes left, right, and center whenever I could get away with it. But there ARE some jokes that aren't funny. Pretending to leave isn't very funny, especially when some people "leave" just to see if people like them or not. Its not a good way to get attention, nor do I see leaving threads as funny because I take them seriously, since most people leave forums for serious reasons (grounded from internet, lost interest, ect.), and depending on the person, some leave for a few months, but come back. But others go by their word and never return, and because they might not like messengers, or didn't make their e-mail public, you can't ever contact them again. Thats why I don't find the joke funny.

Thats part of my anger, and why I don't hardly post anymore. More times then none, when I post here.... its treated as though I never said anything at all, and it really makes me rather sad. Especially since I see people replying to other peoples posts, comments, and such, but not mine. Thats where I get the "its just one big popularity contest here" additude here from, clearly I'm unpopular at this forum. It could be from choosing a name that was, at the time I signed up at the new board, unique, the fact that I draw all my own avatars, my opinions differ from most here, or a combination of everything.
The retarded thing comes from the few times people do respond to me and what I've said, and rehash the point of the disscussion, as though I don't understand what everyones saying, and in the meantime the point I've tried to make is completly forgotten. I'm pretty sensitive to it, because people have accused me of being in Special Ed. a lot, even though I'm NOT. The ONLY time I ever was was in Kindergarden, and thats because my teacher was one of those kind that reccomended any kid who was hyper, didn't like non-parentive athourity, or didn't get along with other kids/those of the same gender due to being fairly unique, to be put on Ritalin, and I fit pretty much that bill (mostly the authority and unique part). So every day for for a while (I don't remember the exact length of time) I'd be sent to a special class every day, for the sheer purpose of being out of her care for a while, and it wasn't even a REAL Special Ed. class, it was a "kids who can't understand stuff well" type of class, and even the teachers in charge of there clearly though I didn't belong in it since I was very bright. But they kept me there anyways... prolly because the teacher demanded it.
I'm also sensitive to being accused of being retarded after my Senior year.... Because my Conselour treated me like I was!!! I was in normal classes, taking extra classes in order to graduate on time, and getting really good grades in my classes, but she talked down to me like a Elementary school-aged kid!! Not to mention she told ALL my teachers something along the lines that I'm just barely in normal classes. -_- How do I know this? ....During the first week of school, except for teachers who knew me from last year, I got weird looks from them and I didn't know why until my conselour called me in for a needless talk early in the year, and talked down to me, so it was easy to put two and two together. Plus I talked to my specific assistant principal twice in the span over a few days, due to a teacher complaint (it was no real reason, its too stupid to get into right now). The first time she talked to me like I was a normal Seniour. A few days later, when I was called back so me and the teacher could talk, she started to talk down to me. And all fears that she talked to my counselour who told her the "I'm just barely in the normal classes" deal were confirmed when she siad, at one point, she talked to my counselour.
*deep breath* And thats why I'm upset because of the re-explaining topics to me and missing my points thing.
