My friend said the same thing about it after he saw it, and keeps hassling me to see it too.

It was such a bad exam yeah right![/QUOTE]
If I had a strict teacher I would have got kicked out, because I burst out laughing when the music from Harry Potter started playing.
And when it asked what type of film it's from I wrote "Fantasy, because it is the theme music from Harry Potter...". I'm so whacky with my crazy shenanigans.

Yo Chris, I'll be in Jersey from like May 30th to like June 14 or something like that. So yeah, we'll have to get blazed a couple times.

cbmartinez 05-22-2006 03:20 PM

**** yeah bro, hit me up. If you stay a couple more days you could come to the show I'm putting together.

HomeCatMickey8 05-22-2006 03:21 PM

Damn, I got driver's ed here for summer school like June 15... :upset:

cbmartinez 05-22-2006 03:25 PM

Owned, we'll still chill though. Where are you staying again?

Pazz 05-22-2006 03:25 PM

I finish my in-class drivers ed this week. I'm so happy. Except I have to make up one class that I missed. Then I start in-car drivers ed on June 20th.

DepthsOfDreams555 05-22-2006 03:28 PM

How many hours do you have to drive Matt?

Pazz 05-22-2006 03:30 PM

10 hours I think.

25 hours in class.

DepthsOfDreams555 05-22-2006 03:32 PM

Oh, i see, well we had to do 30 class hours and 6 driving hours.

Pazz 05-22-2006 03:34 PM

I'm not exactly sure how it works though.

Because there are two students in the car with one instructor, and they each drive. But since they both can't drive, does that time go towards both of them or just the person driving, because if it's just the person driving, it's going to take a while to get it all done.

DepthsOfDreams555 05-22-2006 03:35 PM

Ya that sucks, I'm guessing the time only goes to the driver. When we did it, we only had one person in the car and we did it in hour and a half intervals.

Pazz 05-22-2006 03:37 PM

We haven't been told how long we will be going out for at a time. Probably 2 hours, but the dude said the first time will only be for like an hour.

Thankfully we got to choose the other student that drives with you.

Ross 05-22-2006 03:40 PM

Drivers ed? I take it that's how you're taught to drive in the US of A?

So.. you do so many hours in a classroom and so many hours in a car? Then they give you your liscense or do you take a test of some sort?

Over here (UK) its just a theory test where you answer 35 multi-choice questions and then you have to take a practical test in a car with an examiner. And you need a lot of luck to get through that (skill is fairly irrelevant to be honest).

Pazz 05-22-2006 03:43 PM

I'm in Canada.

Here, you have to take a test to get your G1. It permits you to drive with an adult in the passenger seat(they must have had a license for 4 years). You must also be 16 to take the test.

Then you have to wait one year to go for your G2, or you can take drivers ed, pass it, then only have to wait 8 months to get your G2.

To get your G2, you must pass a driving test.

A year after you get your G2, you can get your G.

The G test is another driving test, but much more in depth.

Ross 05-22-2006 03:54 PM

Fair enough. That's comparatively technical, but makes sense that you can do extra drivers ed to get through the system quicker.

Here you can apply for a Provisional Licence at 17 (no test required), and then you can drive with anyone in the passenger seat that's held a full licence for 3 years (I think its 3..). Once you've done the theory you book your main test, and as soon as those two tests are done, you are upgraded to a full licence.

Your system does stop complete morons being allowed to drive at all by having a test before you can get the G1, which is good.

So G2 and G, is there a major difference? Like you're not allowed on motorways etc with just a G2 level licence or something?

DepthsOfDreams555 05-22-2006 03:55 PM

In the US you can take Drivers training or Drivers Ed when you're 15 and you can get your learners permit which allows you to drive with a family member in the passengers seat and you do your classroom hours and your driving hours then once you're 16 and a month old you have to take a written test and a drivers test with an examiner at the DMV. Then if you pass you get your license.

cobert 05-22-2006 04:39 PM

Im pretty sure that depends on state, zach. In Pennsylvania, you probably wont get your permit until you're 16.

DJ Ducksauce 05-22-2006 05:08 PM

Yeah DL depends on the state laws. Like I know in Texas you have to be 16 to drive alone while my cousins in Jersey have to wait till they're 17.

B 05-22-2006 05:14 PM

Jersey>Texas

With your G2, you aren't allowed to have any alcohol in your system at any time. You are also only allowed one passenger in the vehicle after midnight.

Once you have your G, you can have as many passengers are there is seatbelts. For alcohol, you can't have more than a certain amount, I'm not sure how much.

Ya it does I should've specified that was for Indiana.

So my dad was pissing me off so he started playing music really loud, like garbage music, so I went downstairs and started playing snare drum rudiments just over and over and over and over and I just kept playing and I'd stop for like 30 seconds and he would have his music louder so I'd start playing louder and I was down there playing for a bout an hour and a half non-stop and his music was blaring and I'm not conditioned haha, I'm pooped.

cobert 05-22-2006 05:41 PM

You and your dad sound like youre mighty competitive.

DepthsOfDreams555 05-22-2006 05:43 PM

My dad is a bitch and a hypocrite, about everything. Especially the loudness of my music, he is constantly telling me to turn down my music and then he is a bitch and plays his f[SIZE="2"]u[/SIZE]cking as loud as he wants. He won't turn it down and I'm trying to write my effin chem paper. But ya it was intense competition and the only reason I lost is because my part actually required some effort and I got tired.

Not really. I don't like the north too much. Too crowded.

DepthsOfDreams555 05-22-2006 05:44 PM

[QUOTE=Theo B]Jersey>Texas[/QUOTE]

Well I agree.

DJ Ducksauce 05-22-2006 05:50 PM

Meh, the area where my cousins live, the houses are really close together. They build up rather than out. Not too much open space. Same with NY, I don't like small cramped up areas.

DepthsOfDreams555 05-22-2006 06:00 PM

I love big cities like New York City.

Pazz 05-22-2006 06:05 PM

I have never been to NYC. I would love to go though.

So, my new favourite band = Zebrahead
