the big 18

so many think 18 is the year where you get to let loose, when your officially an adult...
Having just turned 18 a week ago or something, the only thing I've really noticed is that now I can vote (oh the joy -.-)
I'll vote anyways, but it won't make a difference, seeing as how my area is liberal (in canada we have 3 main...well 4 main parties, conservative, liberal, NDP, and the bloc quebecois)...and its not like the votes for anything other than liberal matter, because there's just so many people who vote that way here...
anyways, 18 hasn't impacted my life in any way that I can tell, whats your take on this?P.S. winter sucks (I'm gonna vote conservative to spite winter)

I don't think that 18 is the age that you let loose. I think its the age when you start college/university, for me that's 17.
Now that your 18, you'll be held accountable for all your crimes hehe. anyway, happy belated.

yeah, that was the one thing I was thinking...now I can be tried as an adult no matter what O.O
are there any perks to 18 or is it all downhill like it sounds :P

lol here in NZ we cut loose way before we are 18, however at 18 you can go clubbing and buy alcohol and shit, its sweet if your into that kind of thing, but either way its still nice being able to go to the pub with your mates and have a beer or two. 21 in november, 21 is the age that you officially become an adult lol.

meh, I'm not a drinker, I was just curious to see people's views on it :)

18 is supposed to be the age where you take on the world on your own, exploring yourself & being responsible for your actions, weither good or bad they may be 8)

You're an adult when you stop acting like a child....
Thus, many people never become adults...

good in theory iamlegend, but you're still treated like a child/adult :/

Replying to #8

If I treated you like an idiot, would you become one?

Very well said.

You don't need to start treating him like one for him to be one, the majority already knows he is one.

growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.

meh, I was going to vote conservative anyways
truer words were never spoken loony
and is littlekill just an auto-flamer, cause he just never shuts up...

I thought you were 15-16, in your photo on MSN, you don't look that old.

hmm...that picture is a few months old, but I was 17 at the time
I'm always told I'm younger than I am :P

lol, its the internet littlekill, everyone's a thief, and your saying that on a site that lives off the word thief

WinterreiseWe are not thieves; thieves steal. We are pirates: pirates copy.

We also rape and destroy, THUS IS THE LIFE OF A PIRATE!

I think it's about time you are banned.

when pirates stormed a boat, did they copy the treasures and riches? no they stole them -.-I understand your point winter, but not many people here actually try it then buy it
they try it and try it, and rarely post in the forum

WinterreiseI don't think you understand the difference between Pirates that go "Yarrrrr", and Pirates that go "Shut the hell up, I'm almost done area 25 on N+!"

or pirates that yell 'merde! Rogers are F**cking throttling my connection'... hmm, that sounds familiar :P

uh mods and admin please try stay on topic...
