The world is wonderful because... Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

One day the young aghast filled boys here at poly will grow up. They will learn that they really don't know everything, that completing college and having real life experience does make people more knowledgeable then just reading books, they may even learn that the US is not to blame for everything. Right now it will be difficult for them to accept this but give them time.

Experience will wisen them and curb their youthful misunderstandings and that is why the world is a wonderful place.

It's more fun to blame the U.S.

I'm going the opposite way. I used to love the U.S. but now I am beginning to realize how much the U.S. is to blame for everything . And technically, I am grown up.

Suffering from ads?

Because good guys win, and I'm a good guy, thus I will win at the end. I might die right now if the thunder would struck my face, but I would still die as a winner. Why? Because I lived by my values and never took the easier path or the more lucrative path, I took my path and I took it my way, on my terms.

Nice troll, but a bit too obvious, and could have used a bit more effort.

It's not meant to be a troll. Just telling people I love them and I know time will make things better.

Wind is piss is a good thing. Unless you are outside on a freezing cold day taking a piss into the wind, then you just end up all wet and not in a good way.

piss is sterile (unless you have an STD). That's why they used to tell people to use urine to treat burns instead of using dirty water. They no longer say that though, because it's not that hard to find clean water in this day and age (at least in first world countries).

In which case your sentence reads something like the 'fear-struck stricken boys...' .

If you are aghast, you are presumably already full of dread, fear or consternation. By itself, 'aghast boys' would suffice.

Your sentence is still over egging the pudding.


As I said, 'aghast', all alone on its lonesome, by itself, does the job.
