But isn't it a young adult book series? 24 comments

Yeah, RIGHT. With murder, torture, mind-control, racism, classism, homophobia, prejudice in general, slavery, and not to mention all the very mature concepts delt with in the book, it's DEFINITELY a children's book. Harry Potter deals with things a lot of adults can't grasp and ideas that a lot of "adult books" don't mention or talk about. Just because it's a series set in a magical, fantasy world with young protagonists doesn't mean it's a children's book series.

But it's good, in a way, that Iroh's son died. If he hadn't, Iroh would've gone on with the plan to conquer Ba Sing Se and it would've been overthrown sooner and more people would've died. Plus Iroh would have never changed into the wise, old man that we all know and love and he would have remained hateful and greedy and violent, much like his brother, Ozai.

God point. It's like Twilight which basically just says if your boyfriend leaves you, jump off of a cliff and go completely comatose for months on end. I hate that. I like songs (and books and movies and such) that are strong and empowering.

I say it like, "Well ek-ska-YOOOOOOOOOOS me." (I spelled it out phonetically, just in case you're wondering why it's so wonky.)

Yeah, I figured. I mean, if she did it for the sole purpose for getting healthier, then it WOULD be great. I don't know, I think I prefer her how she was before just because she looks so much more like the "That's So Raven" character that I love. Funny and sassy and a little bit awkward at times. Now she just looks like any other star in Hollywood.

Yep, that sounds like me. XD Or once, I woke up to go to the bathroom and I thought a heard someone, so I grabbed the giant police flashlight that I keep next to my bed and I snuck really quietly through the house and it just turned out to be my cat.

For me, it was never "quickly." She'd com back an hour later with a million groceries when she originally went in there for some grapes.

Yes, I really admired that move. A lot of celebrities just ignore it and I was really proud of her for saying it straight to the interviewer's face when the interviewer is probably one of those people who pushes you in the media.
I saw another thing where someone was interviewing Anne Hathaway after her Les Misérables role and they asked her how she lost so much weight for the film and such as though it was a good thing and then she said that she lost so much weight because she wanted to give the appearance of a starving person, like her character.

It's hardly everything on the Internet. Introverts have just gotten a lot more light lately for some reason. Anyways, what you're saying is completely untrue. Some of us, of course, do like to be though of as complicated and misunderstood, but a lot of us don't. Most introverts aren't complicated, we're just quiet and it's harder to get to know us. Also, many people DO misunderstand us (not in a, "I'm so misunderstood, poor, pitiful me" kind of way but in the way that a lot of people don't understand what it means to be an introvert). It's just that introverts don't get a lot of light and extroverts have a be difficult time understanding us and they typically just start disliking us because of preconceived opinions with no basis or fact. People are just trying to get the word out that most introverts aren't what you think they are at first. I think people are just trying to remind others not to judge a book by its cover.

I was browsing through some pictures and I saw multiple posts coming from Funsubstance and they were all pretty funny, so I decided to check it out. And now I'm here and I'm pretty much an addict.

I don't think they're angry at actual introverts, I think they're angry at their perception of introverts. As said, a lot of people think introverts are snobby and/or self-centered and while that can be true, it isn't necessarily. I think, because a lot of people think that, that they get mad at them for being snobby and/or self-centered even though they're not really like that.

You're not disabled, you're just a part of the minority. I think there are more extroverts in the world than introverts and, by their nature, extroverts typically get out and do more things and are more social so, if they don't understand introverts and they think they're weird or disabled, they're just more likely to say so and affect other people with their way of thinking. Oftentimes, introverts keep their thoughts to themselves, so if they thought an extrovert was weird or disabled, they'd just stay quiet with their thoughts.

Well, not exactly. I mean, I'm an introvert and when I want to, I can socialize just fine. It's just not a choice as to how socialization affects us. And it's not really a method of thinking . . . it's like love or fear. You have it and it affects you, but it's not a method of thinking. I don't know how to describe it. Anyways, you're right, it's your choice on how you rule your life and being an introvert or extrovert doesn't define you. You can still make decisions to go out or stay in whether or not you're an introvert, it's just that going out is tiring for us and we can't control that.

There was actually an interview with her where they asked her how/why she did it and she said something like it was all the pressure from the media and from her peers so she got skinny. Doesn't really seem like a good thing. :P

Well, while I agree that respecting people's privacy and not embarrassing them in public and such is the way we should treat everyone, it's more of the things like number three "let them observe first" which is more exclusive to us. Plus, if you're like me, I am EXTREMELY private and I hardly tell anyone anything about my real life (I'm more open online, though) and, if you're like me, then I consider things embarrassing that most people don't even think of. For me, if even the smallest slip-up is broadcasted, even if no one cares or has a reaction to it, is very embarrassing. I think it's just things like that.

Introversion isn't a choice. You develop it while growing up. Introversion, in my mind, is when you get your energy from being along doing whatever while extroversion is where you get energy from being around and talking with people. So your sister, though she may be good at socializing, she may find it extremely exhausting and that's why she doesn't do it often. It's her choice on whether or not to socialize but not her choice on how she draws her energy.

No, you are stopping its development and growth. Because, as I've said time and time again, it is an ongoing debate as to when life begins. Is it when the egg is fertilized or when the baby is birthed?

Or, actually, no. It's not those who piss me off. I mean, I disagree with them, but it's their opinion and you can't really argue with an opinion (though, that's hypocritical, seeing as I do it all the time). It's just the ones who are arrogant or obnoxious or ignorant about it that piss me off.
