Moved to Bible Belt.. going insane

I've been on here for awhile, but I don't really post. I recently moved from southern CA to North Carolina to go to school. Its just now starting to hit me that I live in the bible belt. If I see one more jesus fish on a car i'm going to pry it off.

Anyway, I'm Meaghan, 22, student of physics and lifelong atheist. Hopefully I will graduate someday with a degree in nuclear engineering with a minor in asskicking.

Looking forward to talking to folks who have half a brain and an ounce of logic contained therein, because there sure aren't any of those in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Hi, Meaghan! Sorry to hear about your move, however, I've been in Jesus-thump, USA (Pittsburgh district) my whole life. I envy your days in SoCal.

welcome to our humble forum, arti!

One of the most irrational of all the conventions of modern society is the one to the effect that religious opinions should be respected....That they should have this immunity is an outrage. There is nothing in religious ideas, as a class, to lift them above other ideas. On the contrary, they are always dubious and often quite silly.

Welcome, welcome.

Looking forward to seeing you around.

I live in Texas, so I know what you're experiencing. I contemplated trying to determine the percentage of Jesus-fish adorned cars, but haven't figured out a good way to do it.
Man, I wish I had gotten into the car decal business.

Have you thought about making it a double major (nuclear engineering/asskicking)? I bet that would look cool on a resume.

You wouldn't envy it now. We're up to our eyeballs in soot and smoke around here *cough* *cough*. It's pretty nasty.

Well, we've got plenty of fire and brimstone coming our way, eventually.

Here's hoping all is well in Lurkerland. I find it curious how little attention this is getting compared to Katrina. Not on the same level, I know, but still.

Really? Even after the photoshopping in the first image?

(Hint: Look below the chin. Notice any square black objects?

Maybe it's the whole "I'm putting this on the internet" thing... but seriously, how can one's hotness be properly "judged" to with such tampering!)

I'm missing what you're seeing. Can you tell me more?

Anyways, I just saw a picture of like five hot young chicks and started playing with myself. It's not like I was doing something odd.

The 2nd girl from the right has a big black square right over her cleavage. I didn't notice it until Kamikaze mentioned it.

However, I am having trouble matching the girl from the 2nd picture with one from the 1st.

I edited it for myspace appropriateness. That photo was taken at a very unflattering angle.

. . very unflattering. It wasn't photoshopped, it was MS Painted!

Yeah, I guess it does look kind of odd...what gives?

The second girl from the right is the girl from the second picture.
