I changed, became more mature, I speak clear and sophisticated English, I do alot more better in school, I play alot more soccer and I have no shame of being myself.

Good for you Jacob 👆

Exactly. But ironically, improper speech is more permissible. You cant proofread the spoken word. Typing on the other hand...

Yea but give the kid a break, he's trying.

Besides, you missed "I do a lot more better..."

well i work at a convenience store and before when people were short for beer and cigs i gave it to them and now i don't 'cause it's not a neccessity....no one needs beer or cigs...so no breaks buddy...

When online, do you say "I'm speaking to you" or do you say "I'm typing to you"?

Nope. Some were misguided, but not childish.

I've always been exceedingly more mature than my peers.

Think you could bring that matureness in here?

That's good. The gangsta thing was really lame and annoying.

How does it work out in real life for you?

my views changed as my surrounding changed. the ideals i held onto as a teenager, i can not hold onto anymore. not because they werent true or good, but because in my current state, they are impossible to assimilate into my reality. over time i have seen that this world is a more varied yet less dynamic place than my reality then was. it is more grim and dismal, and you can not hold extreme views one way or the other, or you would be either a little ignorant, too idealistic, or wud end up hurting people who really do not desereve to be hurt in their reality.
generally, it isnt as interesting as it used to be, but thats really the worlds fault not mine. it is incompatible with the best of psychological/spiritual components of humanity. 🙂 . but really, u do the best you can.

More or less, my change in views have been the realization that it is really impossible to know anything.

Let's not start stuff. Your immaturity is showing b/t your rolls.

Then again I am not the one claiming to be more mature than my peers.

Then you shouldn't have anything to say.

That was easy.

Incorrect though.

Pretending to be more mature than your peers, does not equate to having thoughts that can contribute to a discussion.

You would know that, if you were mature. But the matter of the fact is that you are a) not very mature and b) also not of high intelligence. You are an average, but arrogant poster...in fact, some of your posts are incredibly stupid, usually when they are too full of your self love.

Now, lets have your idiotic reply and get back on topic:

Awww you're MAD b/c of my ON TOPIC post that didn't CONCERN YOU.

Yeah, your obvious lie did annoy me.

Anyways, my views didn't really change that much I think. They are flowing back and forth in a way, but they are centered around similar points I think. Maybe I got more insights into some, or was convinced that others were wrong and had to be adjusted. But I don't recall any views that I am embarrassed about nowadays.

I used to be Catholic. Now I'm cool.

I used to think sex was icky. It's only a little icky now.
