    Working with Kids

    7even I define 'kids' less in terms of arbitrary age in years, and more in terms of pubescence. Pre-pubescent = kid. Pubescent/post-pubescent = pain in the ass, uh, I mean 'young adult'. If I had to pick an age, I'd say at around 12 years old their attitudes change drastically (often, but not...

    The Twilight Zone

    Used to love this series as a kid. My favorites were "Talking Tina" and the one about the kid who could wish people into the cornfield. The jack-in-the-box scene at the end of that episode terrified the shit out of me. Alfred Hitchcock Presents was fun too, though a bit too cerebral at times...

    Where Do I Go to Deactivate my Account

    Theoretically, you could lock yourself out of your own account by doing the following: Click 'User CP'. Click 'Edit e-mail and password'. Enter your current password. Then bang on your keyboard to produce a long, random, unmemorizable new password. Cut and paste it into the 'Confirm new...

    So then if it gets you what you want, having sex with a 9 year old is ok?

    That was a very poorly executed response. :) @ Architect: Why do you think that is, and are you referring only to your own kids, or kids in general?

    I really think I have ADD. Should I get it checked out?

    re: the cool thing: Last year my then 10 year old son remarked that if he had ADHD, he would be allowed to go to the computer lab and play video games during class. At the time I kind of passed it off as misinformation on my son's part. So this morning I asked him to elaborate. This is what he...

    I teach ESL privately to kids and adults.

I enjoy teaching adults too, but I...

    Posting on the bullshit threads will make you smarter.

    Ironic...this thread was started in 2009, but the general sentiment in this brand new one: http://www.intpforum.com/showthread.php?t=14045 is that things here have gone into a downward spiral since then. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

    Not refuting that ADD/ADHD exists. Just a few comments. The DSM isn't exactly a trustworthy source of information.

    "Trolling"

    It used to be 'trawler' (see EditorOne's definition above), back in the USENET days. I always assumed that it was corrupted into 'troll' by net kiddies who play too much Warcraft and don't understand the concept of 'trawling'.

    INTP Emotions - What is wrong with me?

    Death and its associated mourning doesn't have the impact on me that is appears to have on others. I used to walk away from crying, etc. feeling helpless and uncomfortable.
