Questions!
 
Since Bill's was destroyed, lets start a new one.

I don't understand the British governing system. Like take this Thom Yorke profile snippet:

Thomas Edward Yorke (born October 7, 1968 in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, England)

Is Northamptonshire like a province or a state? Are they governed individually? I'm assuming Wellingborough is some form of city, and this "england" suffix must be British for earth or something. Help MB, I might cross the ocean someday when I'm not 10 feet under credit card bills, how embarrassing would that be.

Wellingborough is the town
Northamptonshire is the county it's in
England is the country
Britain is a union of countries.

That help?

How come whenever you have a generally displeasing human (to look at or otherwise) in their formative years, are they always drawn to "art"?

And furthermore, why is that "art" always gothic scary and ****ing stupid?

Oh well thats a different can of worms. Getting picked on is a natural way of life. Thats mostly because...well to quote one of the more evil men on earth

If you're "different" because you're trying to buck this system, well you'll have to understand that their way of life invites them to get rid of you, and yours does not. You've created your own one way street and to hammer it home...

i will say that this is very true. there are several ways people who are seen as different can fight without fists. i.e. court of law, business administration, and somewhat others...

no, I mean people should stop being attention starved because they weren't hugged enough.

People need to take a look at what their doing and why, and not just be guided around by their subconscious and repressed insecurities.

And if what you find is that you do something because you want to and not for some ulterior motive, then just stick to your guns.

people who arent hugged enough are mostly people who are usually self centered as well. and most people dont take a look at what they're doing because they're too self conscience of if they are doing it for what they want of if they're doing it for something somebody else is wanting. that's what usually happens is people change because of other people, not for what they want in themselves. and decision should be based on yourself and not of others. otherwise you'll live a complete lie and you could never live with yourself.
