Eh I thought the first few were a little bit better. Those were actually some of my first exposure to music so perhaps I'm mistaking a thought out critique for nostalgia.

A bloke at work once tried to lock me in a toilet cubicle by jamming a wedge under the door.

The door opened inwards!

He never lived it down.

All you need to do is look at the track listing on the Big Shiny Tunes releases from 1996 to 2009. For those not aware, Big Shiny Tunes is a yearly Canadian compilation of what was most popular on the radio for that year. Because it's a Canadian publication there are a lot of bands who mostly got famous on Canadian radio but it's not exclusively Canadian.

Big Shiny Tunes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Just look at the tracklistings on the wiki, from 1996 to 1999 it was pretty good, even 2000 was decent, but then look at the one from 2001...

I remember buying Big Shiny Tunes 4 only because it had the song "All Star" on it. I don't think I have any of the other ones. I'm not that into compilations.

It's scary how many copies get sold though. I mean each one of them has gone multi-platinum and I think Big Shiny Tunes 2 is the best selling CD in Canada. I think they are kind of like Nickelback CD's, where some kids grandparent buys it for their grandchild not knowing what their grandchild likes. Either that or parents get them for their kids as a stocking stuffer because they all come out in December.

A school parody of who's smarter than a fifth grader: What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of lead.
A girl I know still doesn't get that joke. This school play was 3 months ago.

Trenna, to my friend who's Asian: If you grab my ass again I'm gonna punch you in the balls.
My other(white) friend: Trenna, Asians don't have balls.
Trenna: Oh, what the hell?! I never knew that!

Trenna: My family doctor has cancer. How do doctors get cancer?
My friend Chantel: They get it from all the sick people they take care of.
Trenna: Oh, that totally makes sense...

I'm not using it as an excuse for my instigating, that's not really something I attribute to the aspergers that's just in my nature.

Trying to do things on my own is a struggle not just because of me but because I have a severely overprotective legal guardian who doesn't really believe I can do anything on my own. I've slowly been learning how to cook, as far driving, combined with the fact that nobody is eager to teach me I'm not really eager to learn either. I drive people crazy when I ride with them because I'm very paranoid and the kinda person who might freak out just because someone is pulling out of the drive way and I think they might crash into us.

I am planning on taking a GED test, my mom and my brotherr got one, my brother says he didn't even study for it but that's what I'm going to do because I want to get as high of a score as I can. People tell me I'm smart enough but I think they're just being nice, I'm not really confident but I want to try it anyway. It's just the idea of getting one which is dumb because I don't think I would be able to do anything I'd want to do if I had one anyway.

...until someone told him I'd been pissing in it for weeks.

Not sure I can beat that one.

Although a mate of mine did go into Subway and ask if a 6 inch sub was a footlong, which I thought was kinda funny
