Inky Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Howdy, Julian. You have a themed high-school? How does that work? Is it private?Hi Kori,Haha, I never thought of it that way. It's public, but I had to test to get in. It's pretty cool. Every year we do different dissections. We watch live surgeries via distance learning. Last year we did hospital rotations and next year we get to intern in a medical profession of our choice. Our curriculum is also more science-oriented, although we get the regular humanities classes.This is not an endorsement of public schools though. :angel: It's definitely an improvement (I don't think I could have survived at a regular high school), but it is still frustrating at times.That's so cool! I want to be a medical illustrator, and I'm waiting [im]patiently to learn all the proper anatomical stuff in college.Anyway, welcome to anyone who's joined up since I was here last, enjoy your stay =)I'll try showing up a wee bit more often. Oh, and I'm rereading Atlas Shrugged, for the record.Sayonara! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Grieb Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Kori; Who is Steven Wright. His quotes are cool. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Dunno why you're asking Kori, dear, since I'm the one with the quotes. Anyway, he's a stand up comedian, not as famous as he used to be. His brand of humor was...strange. He would deliver his jokes with minimal expression and just run straight through his ludicrous lines without pausing for laughter or anything. Quite something. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Grieb Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Sorry Inky about the mix-up. On Steve Wright I don't think I ever saw him. Don't forget the old quote "Dying is easy. Comedy is hard." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brg253 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I really wish I had discovered Objectivism when I was a teenager. It would have saved me a shit ton of trouble... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selene Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 http://www.weather.net/zarg/ZarPages/stevenWright.htmlHere are a plethora of his one lined insanity.Some of his one liners you will be thinking about for days, like: "I was born by Caesarian section...but not so you'd notice. It's just that whenI leave a house, I go out through the window." -- Steven WrightWhich reminds me of the test tube baby who had a womb with a view.Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brant Gaede Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hello, I'm seventeen. More importantly, is everyone alive in this neck-of-the-woods?Inky grew up. The teenagers on OL usually leave when they leave for college, which is totally understandable.--Brant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Eichelberger Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Makes sense, the reason I'm here is because I have a urge to express and read more than my school provides. A true college cannot possibly be so inadequate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 G'day. The name's Alexander. 17, Gilbert, Arizona. Became an Objectivist about half a year ago from a combination of The Fountainhead, Atlas Shrugged, online lectures, The Virtue of Selfishness, a friend of mine, and a few economic sites and articles.

J.S. McGowan Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Hey just joined OL. Names Jacob. Im 17. I live in South Africa. Iv never actually met another objectivist so i thought joining a forum was the next best thing."Converting" people to Objectivism is proving second too impossible here :-(I feel bad for asking (because i dont want to sound like an born again evangelist :-P) : but how does one go about opening other people up to objectivist ideas?When I speak about my views in class i get rolling of the eyes and general bad looks from my peers (especially in the history class) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
