Do violent video games negatively influence those who play them? Will playing violent video games make someone a violent person.

Violent video games are made for/played by violent people. If you are not a violent person already, you more than likely will not want to play such gruesome games in the first place. Video games also do not negatively influence people. By playing violent video games, the violent people are given a change to let out their aggressions on the characters in the game rather than the kid they sit next to in Spanish class. I believe that many people have been rescued by the detailed graphics supplied by Xbox...or whatever gaming system you may have.

Did you have trouble completing the quotes assignment?

I found the quotes assignment to be fairly simple. I completed it the day it was assigned and printed it out that weekend. The assignment was then left in my folder patiently awaiting the due date.

Who is your hero?

I have an unhealthy fascination and/or obsession with Emilie Autumn and the Bloody Crumpets. I can't explain the reason. Some of their music really sucks, and a lot of their gimmicks are really cheesy. I have ALWAYS wanted to play the violin more than anything else, and either never had the money for the instrument, couldn't find local violin lessons, or both. Therefore, I adore Emilie Autumn mostly because she plays the violin like a goddess. She's also an idol of mine because of her Victorian clothing...too awesome.

Critique each hallway's homecoming decor.

The hallways that were assigned a graduating class look amazing. However, I am concerned about the lack of spirit in the remaining areas of the building. The main hallway has not a single homecoming poster or balloon. That's sad. Also, I'm a bit irritated with the miscreants that attend this school. Quite a few people gave up their weekend to come deck the halls with Keyser spirit, and the other ingrateful students in this school find it comical to tear down, rip up, rearrange, or vandalize their own school's homecoming decorations. No one likes school, but that's no excuse to ruin the fun things about it that some people cherish.

Based on your life now, predict your death.

I seem to offend everyone I come in contact with. I also seem unable to comprehend rules and regulations. Therefore, if I were to die of something other than old age, my death would most likely be due to murder or the death penalty. Looks like big fun awaits me.
