Heavens. Sounds like my school.
woah. that's intense. How do some people have so little regard for life? kind of funny though, in a dark and morbid way.
Oh they had respect for life. Their own. And they knew that they were better than them.
I find it very funny actually. Perhaps that is bad but it is true.
Where did you find that? Did they become friends? Remind me never to be a messenger.
