so today is my 18th birthday! i can now:
+ go to concerts at headliners!
+ buy things from infomercials!
+ enter contests and sweepstakes!
+ be on the real world!
woow, life opportunities are just opening up everywhere! why didnt anyone tell me being 18 was this fun?
- jo [buy me presents. kidding.]
what about buying porno and cigarettes? and voting?
Happy birthday
ok well i guess if your into THOSE kinds of things .. then those are valid too! wheee
oh yea, voting. i dont know how that stuff works.
I turn 18 in June, after we're out of school. What all do I have to sign up for and register for? I know there's the draft, voting, etc etc... but where do I go to do all that stuff?
you can register for the selective service online ... the website is like ss some other letter dot com I think. Registering for voting entails going to the FEC website and downloading the acrobat file, filling it out, and mailing it in. You can also do it at various places like the DEV and maybe even school.
And no, jo, I'm not into porno and cigarettes but I saw "be on real world" and "buy things from infomercials" and so I figured these were jokes also, so I'd share my own. Besides, when most people turn 18 this is what they celebrate ... porn and cigarettes (dont' ask me why).
The only thing I look forward to when I turn 18 is: voting, buying cigars, being able to rent the good movies at Hollywood Video (the one I go to actually checks ages), buy cigars, and to make fun of all those who are not yet 18. Basically, that is all the benefits I'll be getting from this spectacular age where an adolescent suddenly and mystically becomes a fully repsonsible adult over night. [Just a bit or sarcasm if you couldn't guess]
You can register for the Selective Service by going to www.sss.gov
You can register to vote at the nearest county clerk's office. (note: you may actually register to vote now since you are 18 before the nov election)
wow, all I needed was one more s ...
by the way, foster read some of our discussion thread, I told him to post his thoughts ... we'll see if he actually does ... that'd be cool if he did
Spork
which discussion? great...
gay rights discussion
18...Hello! Did you forget the wonderful world of implants?? You can now get into strip clubs as well.
Hahaha,

why would anyone want to put sacks of plastic inside their body to merely add a few sizes to their bust? Are woman really pressured that much about their looks to have invasive surgeries performed on them? Just thought I'd ask to see what you all think.
women are always feeling pressure about that stuff. but some of us handle it in different ways than sticking things in our boobs. obviously, though, the pressure exists.
