A sign Roommate was having sex in Dorm Room? -- LiveWire College Forums

Sheesh.
Ebonics got its name from the words "Phonics" and "ebony". You know, ebony, like "colored folk". It is used to describe the speech that is sometimes referred to as "Rap-culture" speech.
Name-calling is NOT ebonics.
Again, if you are going to patronize, do so correctly.
And, also again, I told you. I KNOW that it is name calling. But calling you a bitch is vastly different than calling you a "stupid butt face".

Wrong. It is name calling. If I went and called my professor a bitch...guess what, honey? It'd fall under 'name calling'. And harassment, at that.

1. We've established that I am a Sophomore in college, there is no need for the "you're, waht, a...". The point has been made, established, and referred to several times by now.
2. Calling someone a bitch is not reserved for high-schoolers. If you act in a manner that represents that which is described by the term "Bitch" then saying that word is name calling with a purpose.

Are you really that naive? Would you go around, calling everyone that acted that part, a bitch? Because I guarantee, if you did, you'd either find yourself with your head bashed in, or called out for immature name calling.

You are an idiot.
I can not believe that you can't see how irrational and just plain fucked up it is to choose: "You are in the hallway after 1. fuck you. here is an IR" as opposed to, "Hey, its after 1, go to bed"
This seriously bewilders me.

I'm bewildered, just as much, as to how someone like you got into college, in the first place. I mean, you have to sign papers, then, too, do you not? I would expect your colelge to expect you to folow ALL the rules of conduct, starting with 'I will not cheat' all the way down to 'I will not have alcohol on the alcohol free campus'.

You have some comprehension problems.
SUSPICION IS SUBJECTIVE YOU FUCKING IDIOT.
If you hear a creak in a kids bed. leave it the fuck alone until perhaps it becomes numerous, audible creaks.
I don't give a fuck what your contract says, I know for a FACT that it does not describe, in detail, what warrants suspicion for EVERY situation.
Prove that it does that, and I will concede

I cannot prove it, for providing my contract would provide the Uni I attend, and I'm not about to put my face out there, on the internet, sorry. But I can guarantee...I know my contract, backwards and forwards, whereas, you do not. I know what rules I'm expected to follow. You? You don't know my rules, nor the contract. So, don't pretend that you do.

Not so in NY. 11 can work as aids in a park office for up to 3 hours a day. And run paper [or brochures, or anything delivery related -except goods] delivery routes

Bullshit. Plain and simple bullshit. Because New York is one of the few states that enacted a law of legality, regarding the age of a worker.

Holy shit. Take a course in logic, more specifically, one that deals with logical fallacies. Calling the bible a crock of shit is NOT an ad hominem.
1. I did not call it a crock of shit to prove your point wrong. You said "Its like picking and choosing from the bible" and I said "You SHOULD pick and choose from it, since it is half a crock of shit"
2. it IS half a crock of...

I've taken a course on Illogical and Logical Fallacies. I'm able to spot them, without even blinking an eye, and I'm going to call it out. Ad Hom. Ad Hom. Ad FUCKING Hom. You act like you know all the world's ways, but you don't, honey. You can't.

You can't prove it's false. You can't prove it's real. Therefore, you cannot prove it's 'a crock of shit', or anything to the likewise. And picking upon a religion...in a debate...which has nothing to do with the religion...Ad Hom, and Red Herring.

I am not putting it down, I was a Catholic for most of my life, until I did some self reflection and decided that the religious/spiritual belief that made the most sense to me was Pantheism [with a little bit of Taoism thrown in]. Let them come with their pitchforks. I am not saying God and jesus don't exist, I'm saying you have to be a fucking moron to believe every word in the bible.
Show me the logic in assuming that a snake that encapsulated all evil told a woman made from a man's rib to eat a forbidden fruit, and when she did, evil was released into the world. Sure, it is a good story about temptation, but if that is merely a story-like proverb, then it follows that OTHER parts are proverbs as well. Its just fucking silly to take the bible as fact.

I don't care what you think, but your logic =/= my logic, which =/= everyone else's logic. You can't prove it, nor disprove it. This isn't about the Bible, so let's move on from that Projection and Distraction, eh?

I don't want you to, since I'm not arguing against it. Discretion does not mean "pick and choose what you want to follow" it means "if it calls for suspicion, use discretion is what you consider suspiciouss"

I know the difference b/w 'discretion' and 'pick and choose'. At that point, we're talking 'picking and choosing', NOT discretion. Literacy is a beautiful aspect of life, is it not?

What point of, "Our contract does not allow for much in the way of discretion" do you not understand? That's just it. Until you see our contract, and have it read out to you, you cannot know, or understand. OUR. CONTRACT. DOES. NOT. ALLOW. FOR. MUCH. IN. THE. WAY. OF. DISCRETION. I'll repeat it until the cows come home.

No. It wont. Maybe once in a great while, but the number of breeches caught over the number of breeches committed is surely close to null.

Finally, you make a bold, statistical assertion, into which, you MUST Prove, for you've asserted. Go on. Prove it. No. Wait, you probably will shift, and project. So, I'm not going to bother holding my breath.

In my case, it can, and it has, and it wil, again. Not with me. But it's happened, before. Don't tell me what 'can and can't be', until you KNOW what can and can't be.

Oh yea? And what were the circumstances of that event? I'm SURE that particular RA was caught telling a kid to simply go to bed after 1, instead of writing an IR. Yea, thats likely it.

You want to know what it was, instead of starting on with your childish assumptions? Sarah (Changed Name) didn't report the alcohol bottles in James and Jimmy's room. Jericho (All names changed), the next RA on shift, found the bottles, and reported James and Jimmy, with is signature on the bottom. When it go back to Housing, Housing wondered why Jericho had signed the signature, when, after questioning James and Jimy, it was clear that Sarah had let it slide. Housing called in Sarah, and, due to a breach in contract, she was gone. Jasmin took her place, and that floor hasn't had a breach of contract, since. You just CANNOT let it slide, for one person, because, then, you're going to have others expecting leeway. "But you let James and Jimmy do it!"

AKA = Also known as... that doesn't quite fit there... It's usually used to refer to an alias.
You brought it up to show your great work experience.
Chromoloy and the government firm both paid $20 and $26, respectively during my internship. And that was at 17 YO and 18YO [also respectively] work years.

You don't know what an alias is, clearly.

I don't care where you've worked. It matters not, in this debate. Because, money is money, and you've got to take what you can afford to take. I couldn't get any other job. McDonald's was LAST on my list, but it was the only opening. And you know what? I'm damned proud of the status I got, working there. I was offered a manager's position. No, I didn't take it, but it meant I did my job, and well.

Actually, it is. I rented the home for 1 year before purchasing the deed.

And I'm betting you had a lease, to sign, right? And you followed it ALL, right? Because, if you were under any GOOD Landlord, they'd expect your front AND back lawn to be cut, not just one or the other, as the lease would have probably called for care of the yards. Plural.

Its fucking naivety its not that difficult. If you are going to use it, know how to spell it.

And I'm sure you're SO perfect, and you NEVER make mistakes, right? ONE mistake, on my part. ONE. Your, and pardon me for sinking to a high school level, asshole attitude? It's been going on for a few pages, now. One mistake, on my part, does not even begin to clear, or equate, that.

Eh, you should get Mozilla Firefox.

I have Mozilla, and it doesn't have a spellchecker on it. At least, this version of it, and version 3 is too large a file to download on my connection.

I'm sorry, but if you are going to be patronizing, then don't fuck up at all.
How have I been patronizing at all? Do you know what that word means?
I was telling you to have some discretion, and perhaps some compassion. Calling you a bitch is not patronizing. Take a few seconds and actually look up its definition.

ONE mistake. ONE mistake.

Calling me ANY PATRONIZIING name is patronizing. Patronizing is patronizing.

I'm beginning to think you like to argue. Are you a troll? An internet troll? Wouldn't surprise me.

I said that I was done with the argument at hand, and in the same post said "Although I still have a few points..." No lies there.
and last word? You replied to me..

I replied to you, because I could. I didn't say, "I was done", now did I? Try again.

lol Sheesh.
and you keep using "that suits you" incorrectly, its really quite annoying

What's annoying is...oh, God, I hate to say this, I hate calling anyone names...but you're an asshole. You're an annoying, bitter, childish, fucking asshole. There. You happy? I fell to your level.

And I don't feel good about it, but it needed to be said.

ORR, the flip side. Which is more relevant.
officer: *speed gun-- 59 mph* "Hmm, 4mph over
officer 2: "let it go, we'll get a more serious one later, 4mph is not a big deal"
officer 1: "Yea, you are right, *speed gun-- 69mph* "There we go"
DISCRETION.
Police officer, huh. That suits you {used CORRECTLY}

Nope. Four miles over is four miles over. It's against the law to speed, whether it's one mile, or 100 miles, over. One mile, or 100 mile, you're still going to get a fine. At least, in my city, if you're caught...look, trust me. I've had a friend go five miles over. They got a ticket. Just as my friend who's gone 25 miles over. Not the same fine, mind you, but a ticket, nonetheless.

You can't just let something slide. It's not that easy. This is not an easy world to live in.

Really, I'd suggest going somewhere, where the rules are lax, for you, but...even places such as Iran or Iraq are hard to live in, for the rules, there, are expected to be followed, even if you don't KNOW them.

And, as for 'used correctly'. Guess what? English allows for MANY uses of MANY words. What you say is correct is not the ONLY way. So, try again.

Yours =/= All. That's the problem I'm seeing here. And, until you learn that, I'm through with you. If you wish to further continue this, aka, further spam a topic with your troll like demeanor, go for it via a private message, to me, but, other than that, have fun 'not arguing'.

And, good luck in life. You're going to need it.

Wrong. It is name calling. If I went and called my professor a bitch...guess what, honey? It'd fall under 'name calling'. And harassment, at that.

You are not my professor. You are a kid with a stick up her ass. I called YOU a bitch, because YOU deserve to be called it. No more. No less.

Are you really that naive? Would you go around, calling everyone that acted that part, a bitch? Because I guarantee, if you did, you'd either find yourself with your head bashed in, or called out for immature name calling.

Why would I do that. I said you fit the part. There may be MILLIONS that fit that role, but a) I have not spoken to most of them
b) your arrogance and compassionlessness annoys me.

I'm bewildered, just as much, as to how someone like you got into college, in the first place. I mean, you have to sign papers, then, too, do you not? I would expect your colelge to expect you to folow ALL the rules of conduct, starting with 'I will not cheat' all the way down to 'I will not have alcohol on the alcohol free campus'.

I got written up 5 times freshman year. I didn't bitch but once about the circumstances of the IR's. Each time I owned up and promptly made my meeting with the dean so my punishment could be dealt out.
Once, however, I was falsely accused and harrassed by an RA, who, being biased against me, was stalking my room and making a check every ten minutes. He knocked on my door and entered to the sight of me watching a movie. I took the issue up with the dean and he was promptly removed from my building [I asked that he not be fired, but simply moved to another building at the end of the semester]

His suspicion got HIM in trouble.
How does my position as to the way in which RA's should conduct their jobs have any implications on the way in which I got into college. I aced the SAT's, presented a stellar essay, RAN the technology department for my high-school, and had some kick ass recommendations, simple as that.

I cannot prove it, for providing my contract would provide the Uni I attend, and I'm not about to put my face out there, on the internet, sorry. But I can guarantee...I know my contract, backwards and forwards, whereas, you do not. I know what rules I'm expected to follow. You? You don't know my rules, nor the contract. So, don't pretend that you do.

So it is your position, then, that your contract clearly and definitively outlines what specific events/noises/whatever constitute suspicious acts?

Bullshit. Plain and simple bullshit. Because New York is one of the few states that enacted a law of legality, regarding the age of a worker.

Ok. Its fairly simple to look up the legal statutes [though, the various specific jobs past delivery] may be more difficult to find since they vary from each state commissioned office.]

I've taken a course on Illogical and Logical Fallacies. I'm able to spot them, without even blinking an eye, and I'm going to call it out. Ad Hom. Ad Hom. Ad FUCKING Hom. You act like you know all the world's ways, but you don't, honey. You can't.

What the hell is an "Illogical Fallacy"?
Shut up.
They are called "Logical Fallacies" which IMPLY either illogical premises or illogical conclusions.

i don't act like I know anything, its just the simple fact that I DO know this. Philosophy is one of my MAJORS, Logic is the core foundation of philosophy.

It is NOT a logical fallacy.
If the situation was
you: "The bible says this, therefore this"
me [besides the obvious Argument from authority on your part in this situation]: "No, The bible is a crock of shit, therefore not-this"

That would be an ad hominem of sorts [not attacking the source, but attacking the subject]

What ACTUALLY happened was, "You can't pick and choose through the BIBLE [which is incorrect, as many christians will tell you that they do not take the bible word for word]" to which I said "the bible is half a crock of shit anyway, you SHOULD pick and choose"

Not only was I not attacking you to prove your point wrong, but I wasn't trying to prove your point wrong at all. I was claiming that, being a crock of shit anyway, the bible shouldn't be taken literally. If anything it was a red-herring on both our parts.

You can't prove it's false. You can't prove it's real. Therefore, you cannot prove it's 'a crock of shit', or anything to the likewise. And picking upon a religion...in a debate...which has nothing to do with the religion...Ad Hom, and Red Herring.

This, my dear, is called an argumentum ad ignorantium or an argument from ignorance. Like, "We don't REALLY know what happened, so it could have or could not have"

when you say that you believe that the earth is only 10,000 years old, and that it is possible for a snake to talk to a woman who was made out of a rib, you are committing an argument from pigheadedness, or refusing to believe something after it has been deemed unreasonable/illogical to believe otherwise.

And lastly, YOU brought up the bible as a point. I simply refuted your point.

I don't care what you think, but your logic =/= my logic, which =/= everyone else's logic. You can't prove it, nor disprove it. This isn't about the Bible, so let's move on from that Projection and Distraction, eh?

Logic is logic, you cant have a personal logic. You can have a personal philosophy, or POV, but not a personal "logic".

I agree, it was a false introduction on your part anyway because of that same point.

I know the difference b/w 'discretion' and 'pick and choose'. At that point, we're talking 'picking and choosing', NOT discretion. Literacy is a beautiful aspect of life, is it not?

No, YOU are talking about "picking and choosing" over discretion because you insist on making these straw-men out of my points. No where did I claim to breech your contract. I said to USE DISCRETION. When they say, "No loitering in the hallways past 1am" it is not their intention to get in trouble some kid who is studying there for whatever reason. It is to prevent kids from talking bull-shit in the hallways and crowding them, becoming a potential fire hazard.
I never said, "Don't bust kids for drinking" I said:
1. wait until your suspicion becomes sufficiently founded in evidential support.
2. Have some respect for them if they are doing nothing WRONG. [ie. if you find a single bottle, tell the kid to throw it away, if you see a kid sitting in the hall, tell him to go to bed]

What point of, "Our contract does not allow for much in the way of discretion" do you not understand? That's just it. Until you see our contract, and have it read out to you, you cannot know, or understand. OUR. CONTRACT. DOES. NOT. ALLOW. FOR. MUCH. IN. THE. WAY. OF. DISCRETION. I'll repeat it until the cows come home.

No contract allows for discretion, discretion is not a legal term. However, if they use the word suspicion, which is by definition a subjective thing, then that subjectivity allows for discretion, again, by definition.

Finally, you make a bold, statistical assertion, into which, you MUST Prove, for you've asserted. Go on. Prove it. No. Wait, you probably will shift, and project. So, I'm not going to bother holding my breath.

Point 1: No uncaught act is caught
point 2 [which is more anecdotal] Of the nearly 30 some-odd people i've talked to about freshman year and write-ups. ALL have said that the the amount of times caught was roughly 10% IF that of the number of times they violated the contract. Seeing as how [and yes, I know that this is an argumentum ad populum however, so is sociology and statistics] the majority of college level kids do the SAME THINGS, it is safe to assume that:

1. The kids that get caught are likely the ones who violate the contract continuously
2. Those kids violate the contract, continuously.

It may not be a PROOF, but it sure as hell is better than, "We are real strict so therefore we have no violations"

You want to know what it was, instead of starting on with your childish assumptions? Sarah (Changed Name) didn't report the alcohol bottles in James and Jimmy's room. Jericho (All names changed), the next RA on shift, found the bottles, and reported James and Jimmy, with is signature on the bottom.

Sarah apparently didn't make sure that Jimmy and jeremy threw out the bottles now did she. Besides, if it were MANY bottles, especially if there were dozens, or with alcohol IN THEM, then she should have written them up in the first place. I said one or two empty bottles.

When it go back to Housing, Housing wondered why Jericho had signed the signature, when, after questioning James and Jimy, it was clear that Sarah had let it slide. Housing called in Sarah, and, due to a breach in contract, she was gone. Jasmin took her place, and that floor hasn't had a breach of contract, since. You just CANNOT let it slide, for one person, because, then, you're going to have others expecting leeway. "But you let James and Jimmy do it!"

Sarah fell victim to some asshole residents. If I were Jimmy, I would not have mentioned sarah. Nor would most people, seeing as how she DIDN'T write them up.

Besides, the prior point still stands.

You don't know what an alias is, clearly.

I'm sorry, quasi-alias.

assumed name, false name

I don't care where you've worked. It matters not, in this debate. Because, money is money, and you've got to take what you can afford to take.

And yet, an engineering firm takes breeches in contracts FAR heavier than Mickey D's. Especially one's that rely on their government contracts. THAT is the relevancy of why I stated where I worked.

I couldn't get any other job. McDonald's was LAST on my list, but it was the only opening. And you know what? I'm damned proud of the status I got, working there. I was offered a manager's position. No, I didn't take it, but it meant I did my job, and well.

sweet. Not my point.

And I'm betting you had a lease, to sign, right? And you followed it ALL, right? Because, if you were under any GOOD Landlord, they'd expect your front AND back lawn to be cut, not just one or the other, as the lease would have probably called for care of the yards. Plural.

Yep, had a lease. And nope, not ALL to the T, nor did the landlord. In the lease it stated that if rent had not been paid by the 2nd there would be a late-fee charge. Twice I was a couple days late, and twice my landlord had the discretion and courtesy to wave the fee. He was a DECENT human-being.
And I built several permanent fixtures which was a breech in contract. But, after inspecting them, my landlord liked them, and decided to keep them. [without charging me the fees that I should have incurred because I did not consult him prior to the construction of said fixtures.

And I'm sure you're SO perfect, and you NEVER make mistakes, right? ONE mistake, on my part. ONE. Your, and pardon me for sinking to a high school level, asshole attitude? It's been going on for a few pages, now. One mistake, on my part, does not even begin to clear, or equate, that.

1. You've made SEVERAL mistakes.
2. I don't claim to be perfect, YOU are the one patronizing ME. If you are going to talk down to me, then make sure that you have, at least the GUISE of superiority.

I have Mozilla, and it doesn't have a spellchecker on it. At least, this version of it, and version 3 is too large a file to download on my connection.

I think its an add-on. Maybe not.

ONE mistake. ONE mistake.
Calling me ANY PATRONIZIING name is patronizing. Patronizing is patronizing.

BITCH is not a PATRONIZING term.

patronizing
Adj.1. (used of behavior or attitude) characteristic of those who treat others with condescension
arch, condescending, patronising
superior - of or characteristic of high rank or importance; "a superior ruler"

I called you a BITCH because you are acting like, a BITCH.

bitch
noun- Offensive
a. A woman considered to be spiteful or overbearing.
b. A lewd woman.

I'm beginning to think you like to argue. Are you a troll? An internet troll? Wouldn't surprise me.

I've been here on a different account for over two years. Check my other posts/topics. No troll here.

I don't like to argue, I just hate when people think that they are better than others, especially when their viewpoints are wrong or lewd.

I usually like to discuss or debate, however.

I replied to you, because I could. I didn't say, "I was done", now did I? Try again.

We are now arguing a different point, are we not. There is still the underlying theme, sure. But the specific point has been swept under the carpet.

What's annoying is...oh, God, I hate to say this, I hate calling anyone names...but you're an asshole. You're an annoying, bitter, childish, fucking asshole. There. You happy? I fell to your level.

I am childish? Why? Because of my humanity, and the disgust I hold for you for your wont of it?

Nope. Four miles over is four miles over. It's against the law to speed, whether it's one mile, or 100 miles, over. One mile, or 100 mile, you're still going to get a fine. At least, in my city, if you're caught...look, trust me. I've had a friend go five miles over. They got a ticket. Just as my friend who's gone 25 miles over. Not the same fine, mind you, but a ticket, nonetheless.

God, you really are an IDIOT. That is NOT how the law works. The person would take you to court and likely win that suit.
1. Because the judge would probably think you are an asshole for pulling someone over going 56-59 miles an hour in a 55.
2. because it can easily be argued that the calibration was off, or that the radar gun is not 100% accurate and could easily [at a distance] be off a mph or two. This is the most common defense, and the strongest, since it wins 7/10 times.

You can't just let something slide. It's not that easy. This is not an easy world to live in.

Yes it is. You spend your time on the fucking internet jabbering on about nothing. Yea, your life is difficult as hell

You will learn if you ever become a police officer the rules of the job.
a) 1-7 mph over the speed limit is typically accepted, especially when such a speed is being maintained to "maintain the flow of traffic" [ie. going 60mph because ALL traffic is moving 60 mph]
b) pulling someone over for going 1-7 over the speed limit is a waste of money and is discouraged. It costs more to do the paper work than the fine generates.

Really, I'd suggest going somewhere, where the rules are lax, for you, but...even places such as Iran or Iraq are hard to live in, for the rules, there, are expected to be followed, even if you don't KNOW them.

Again with these straw men. Since when does discretion equate to anarchy?

And, as for 'used correctly'. Guess what? English allows for MANY uses of MANY words. What you say is correct is not the ONLY way. So, try again.

No not really.
You were using "That suits you" in the context of "I hope, one day, you do grow out of it"
It does not fit there.
Perhaps, "I hope...this does happen"

To say, "I hope it suits you" is to say that you hope it is becoming of the person, or "suits" their style.

Yours =/= All. That's the problem I'm seeing here. And, until you learn that, I'm through with you.

Never claimed that. But showing you that you are wrong does not equal I KNOW ALL. It is just me showing you your errors.

If you wish to further continue this, aka, further spam a topic with your troll like demeanor, go for it via a private message, to me, but, other than that, have fun 'not arguing'.

again with the aka lol
I have a feeling you did that out of spite.

And, good luck in life. You're going to need it.
