Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Yeah but your phones like 6 freaking inches. 

Even my note 4x makes to to minimum 50% by the end of the day. 

My phone is still new enough to last three days with moderate use :x

I mean. I'm at 75% right now, with some use (Snapchat, Google, simple games etc etc). Mostly been studying though. 

The 4000mahs is pretty big. 

(And replacement parts for chinese phones are dirt cheap :D)

I'm bored out of my mind. Been studying for a chemistry and biology test(s) for the past 2 days straight.

All i remember from biology is the mitochondria, C6H12O6 Is the formula for sugar and that not wrapping yer tool can lead to 18 years of financial drainage. 

I liked chemistry. But that's about all i can remember about it since i barely use it day to day.

Mitochondria is where glucose (c6h12o6) is converted into co2 and ATP (energy for cells). (Ironically that's part of what I've been learning). 

Warp it before you tap it. Got it. 

Im gonna take physics next year

We had to watch a really condescending cartoon about how the body converted glucose into energy. on VHS.. 

 

Physics>Chemistry>Biology 

Funny thing is that i hate maths. And yet i actually gave a shit during physics lessons.

Ugh. Our teacher just reads off of a pre made generic shitty PowerPoint. Compete with animations. 

Maths can get boring, but I tend to be okay with it.

Il need physics and maths for getting a a ICT degree or whatever I go for (that's related to tech).

It's normal. But still. A tattoo is essentially a giant open wound. So your body freaks out and tries to heal it back to normal.

Well he left the "yer" in the quote. So he is technically correct. I barely use his tool. 

We had pretty decent teachers. They at least acted like they knew what they were talking about. 

Its just a set of formulas you need to memorize for the most part and i find it dull as all hell. Equations are the fun bit. Fractions are hateful things. 

Getting decent grades in everything will at least keep your options open.

Some of our teachers are just dull as all hell. 

Yeah, I'm hoping to (keep) getting good grades.

Uh oh.

 

Might've wanted to go outline first and color it once that healed.

I went to a "Folkhögskola" to read up my grades. All went well except for maths. Just have that snoozefest left before i'm ready to apply for uni. 

The anxiety i was dealing with at the time made everything more difficult than it had to be though. Could've done waaay better now.

Yup. But not right now. Still got a mountainous debt to take care of first. But i'm well on my way through that by now. 

When that is done i may attend university. To earn that coveted tweed jacket with elbow patches.
