I was driving my car today after filling my tires up with air and putting some gas in the tank. On my way back there's a road with a speed limit of 50, and then a sharp turn onto my road.

I push the brakes down...the car keeps going.

ALL THE WAY DOWN...the car doesn't slow.

My brakes were out.

I have my turn signal on, the light is red, I put my car into the corner the best I can, I throw the wheel right and turn the car, I lose traction on all wheels, I turn the wheel left, hit the gas, regain control and make it around the corner, a busy intersection, with no brakes, and I didn't hit anything or anyone.

I just accomplished a four wheel drift/powerslide for the first time out of necessity.

Oh and I got home and my brake fluid reservoir was bone dry and smoking. So I had NO BRAKES because they were HOT and EMPTY.

If that is an accomplishment, then I did it. Most people think I'm an asshole because I just ran a redlight even thought I did my best to stop.

inb4 e-brake(I have the cable undone because it's been stretched from years of use)

I have never actually had the e-brake do anything while on
But then again all I have owned are shitty used cars that have 100k+ miles before I get to them >.>;

"I'm always on the road, and I drive rental cars. Sometimes I don't know what's going on with the car, and I'll drive for ten miles with the emergency brake on. That doesn't say a lot for me, but it doesn't say a lot for the emergency brake. What kind of emergency is this? I need to not stop now. It's not really an emergency brake, it's an emergency make-the-car-smell-funny lever."

To be fair, it was for a good purpose. He stole my friend's chair and he wouldn't give it back, so I picked the chair up along with him and tossed him off.

[Anne Beeche]

Okay, let's see what we have here:

* BAKER OF GLORIOUS PASTRIES: Baked a delicious swiss chard quiche. I've been learning how to cook lately and my mom's been helping me start off on the right foot.
* NAFNGØRARI: Construct nearly 100 names in Old Norse over the course of a day. This is due to making a thread in another forum where other people requested a name to be translated into Old Norse.

[Demon Duck of Doom]

MONSTER HUNTER: Wrestled and captured a 6 feet long water monitor with my bare hands. (FYI water monitors are gigantic and carnivorous with bloody fangs and a whip tail. Once it hit your leg with its tail, you'll be rolling on the ground, clenching your leg in pain.)
SNAKE CHARMER: Bitten by a venomous snake and remain unaffected. (Technically though. Since this snake is a colubrid and is rear-fanged, said snake have to chew at my flesh in order to inject the venom. The snake didn't get to chew my finger, just a chomp. So no venom is injected)
DRAGON TRACKER: Encountered a komodo-dragon in its natural habitat, the komodo island.
MAD SCIENTIST: Pulled a prank with tools and chemicals from the school laboratory.

What kind of school do you go to and do they accept transfer students.

And drum major solidarity high-five, Paul! - though I've still got a year and four months to go before I can make the band march a Homestuck arrangement.

Indonesian international school, but IDK if they accept transfer students.

Guys I would like sit here typing about all the cool stuff I did all day but it all goes in other topics and this isn't the brag about how you totally wrote all this fan fiction and role playing stuff and also did sprites for a big video game project or built the Clocktower of Cartesian Alignment in Minecraft or got accepted to NC State at age 16 or have like a 4.8 GPA or something or scored like fifty points as Heavy in TF2 in a legit match or programmed a massive text adventure thread. So I'm gonna leave.
