The Song Fight Bulletin Board

QOTD: I'm still a dab hand at breaking into places. The only use this has been put to recently has been to enter my own place when we forgot the key, but myself and Father Boy actually broke into the house across the road from his, because we could. Man, that sounds so shady. It was empty and for sale, and we had known the people. We were just curious.

I fostered some skills in forgery, but I didn't develop them to the extent of Spud. And its not a crime per se, but I am a fantastic liar.

Its worth noting that all of this is pretty much stuff that they teach in schools down here. Its not rough or anything, its just that the morals down here are pliable.

I never got around to implementing it though since it would have taken a lot of work for very little payoff.

I think the payoff would be worth whatever effort it took.

They may have to teach you that stuff in South Australia - but that's because you lot never had convicts down there. Those of us from the eastern states who are decended from good convict stock still have the criminal tendancies naturally in our veins.

(Mind you - I have heard that the Adelaide University does offer an excellent course in Body Disposal 101 at their Snowtown campus)

That's the first step to getting money for nothing and chicks for free.
Have fun with it Rone.

What does that have to do with having criminal skills? Being straight edge means no alcohol, no smoking and no recreational drugs. It's more about not getting involved in dependent lifestyles. Knowing how to pick a lock or being skilled at sneaking into a building has nothing to do with being sXe or not.

I'm straight edge.....cept fur the alcohol and recreational drugs. I'm also a vegetarian, cept fur the pork, beef and chicken. I don't eat fish!......very often!

I am not sure I understand what you are saying. Could you provide an example?

he sold cigarettes and beer to minors. and didn't clearly express his thought. that's what my money's on.

Marcus wins.

I suppose that one was, at first, about breaking the law deliberately and sticking it to the man. On the other hand, peer pressure is incredibly persistent and rapidly becomes unbearably annoying, and it apparently boosts your badass status when you help people do things they really have no business doing in the first place.

Yeah, straightedge doesn't necessarily mean square.

I have always thought thats our problem. The filth isn't in our veins. Which is why we get caught so often. Plus we put in a lot of Churches to try and offset the crookedness. Go figure. Its just like South Australians (and Adelaide in particular) to be indecisive and wishy-washy.
