I just found out I'm a mutant. A MUTANT. What? I mean, this is crazy, right? Here I am, Sir Spazzo McGeekery of all high-schooldom, minding my own sorry business, and suddenly, I have powers. Well, not suddenly.
I think it started with these monster headaches I got about two weeks ago. It sucked so hard; my brain felt like it wanted to crawl out of my skull, and after a few days it started trying to take my spinal column with it, so I got stuck at home forever. I finally decide "screw it, I'm going out", and the headache spikes, I get powers, and wind up unleashing them in front of God, the Universe, and Everybody. What? (I swear that's my new favorite word.) How did this happen to me, of all the people?
My mom's scared to death of mutants. If she finds out I am one, she'll probably die. My dad hates or is angered by them, so he'll definitely disown me. I got this option to go get "help" for it, but is this event he kind of thing that can be helped? Blah. Better wrap this before my powers go nuts and wipe the stupid computer out.
Dude, get a hold of yourself.Written by Technofreak @4:53 pm
How can you not see that your total lamer existence just became worth something? You've got a power nobody else on your block has. Savor it. The world is your playground.
Okay, so the parents aren't ready to find out yet - so don't let 'em. What they don't know can't hurt them. And if they can't handle the truth, they're not worth it, right?
What people like that don't understand is the world's changing. It's been screwed up long enough, and pretty soon it's going to be under new management. Until then, you've got humans on one side and mutants on the other. I'd say you just joined the winning team.
youre all freaks, you know that? you should be ashamed of yourselves...

Hey, hey, hey! Watch it, boys. Play nice.
Don't make me whip out the Ban-hammer.

You want a freak?! Try being blind and a mutant at the same time!!
You know, I survived acne so I guess I can survive this. It's not like I didn't already spend all my time indoors and on the computer. I don't have to worry about having girls I've never met turn me down because I'm suddenly half man, half bat. If anything, I guess it improves my odds. All I have to do is find Kirsten Dunst and hope she likes big ears and wings.
Still, I can think of a million other places I'd rather be than in school again. Been there, done that. Got the t-shirt. I know its supposed to be our home and all, but I like home when I don't have to worry about curfews and rules. Don't get me wrong, the chance to eventually become a superhero or something his completely awesome. I'm living in a freakin comic book, and the only way this gets better is with an actual suit and gadgets and everything else. I guess the biggest downer about all of this is that living in a school, having a curfew, and looking like a freak can make it slightly harder than average to buy a dime bag. I smoke maybe half the weed I used to. I can already feel my power fading...
That's funny, 'cause your IP address says you're at a whole school fulla freaks. Sounds like somebody's projecting.Originally Posted by Fade
Seriously, I don't know what's funnier - the bleeding hearts who do nothing but feel sorry for themselves, or the geeks with the hero complex who think they're gonna save the world. Humans don't want to be saved. They don't deserve to be saved. What's the point of having an advantage if you keep wasting it on everybody else? They're only gonna try to knock you down to their level.

The world is your playground.Thanks for the uplifting speech.[/sarcasm] I guess once I figure this out it could be cool to have powers, but I'm SO not feeling it right now. It's not like the world's a playground, so much as it's like...a lethal version of that gauntlet event from American Gladiators.
I've played by this rule before with great success, but if I lose it at dinner or something and stick the silverware together, they're gonna pretty damn quick what's going on. Man, I don't even wanna THINK about what'd happen if they couldn't handle me being a mutant. It scares the hell outta me.Okay, so the parents aren't ready to find out yet - so don't let 'em.

Kinda creepy, too.
What I wanna know, a little more than how you managed to find the IP, is what's wrong with your attitude. Discovering your powers (in my experience) is pretty harsh. We kinda have the right to freak out and feel sorry for ourselves, to an extent.
I can't speak for that whole "Humans don't deserve saving" thing. I admit I'm prepared for the worst, and I expect the worst, but I can't help hoping that they prove me wrong. Even if it IS the least likely thing to happen.
Written by MagnetMan @10:08am
It's like in The Wizard of Oz. One minute nice normal girl, loving family. Then a bit of inclement weather and then what? LOL
Yeah, it wasn't pleasant in the begining. I knew that something was going on with me, for a while. I didn't want my parents to know. It wouldn't have fit into their plans for me. Then it was just too late. Everyone knew, but life goes on, and I'm glad. I'm happy where I am now.
So yeah, I'm learning to live with the changes, and I don't care who thinks it's freakish. Not for me it isn't.
It's not about 'dealing with it' anyway. I'm not sick.

I am not in the habit of using the word "balderdash" but there are times that call for it. This is one of those times.
As some of you may know, last summer I got a part-time job, which meant I had cash to fund my own personal pursuits. Vegging doesn't cost much and since I can't booze myself rotten in this bloody country for another two years, I've been saving up for a beautiful 32" flatscreen television by Samsung, and oh yes, a Nintendo Wii. I was to be the envy of the institute. But it was not to be.
Yesterday, I was fired. The scum-sucking tourism agency had the audacity to issue a complaint to my employers, the good Lords and Ladies of Balderly Manor, and I was tossed out on my backside with half a day's pay and the dreaded sack. The Bs. I would appeal but being the unbridled freak of nature that I am, I wouldn't stand much chance with an unbiased jury of my peers. The MFs.
"Why the rant?" you ask? Well, other than the fact that this is my own friggin' blog, I want to expose(an exposé, if you will) these money-eating soulless fraudsters who run the show at the supposedly haunted Balderly Manor. Oh yes, haunted, and double oh yes, supposedly. If you know me then you have probably guessed where I'm going with this.
You see, Balderly Manor isn't haunted. In fact, it's only been standing ten years with a fake history of over two-hundred. There are no evil spirits, no eerie moans, no cold spots, no EMF readings, no light anomolies or blood-dripping taps. Nothing! It can't even boast groaning doors and creaking floorboards, it's that new. Haunted, my foot! Noone has even died there!
"Wait a minute! I've been to Balderly Manor and it is too haunted! I know, I saw and heard stuff. I even cacked my pants! Explain these outlandish claims this instant before I leave a comment claiming blatant slander!" you say? Well, explain I will, my disbelieving friends.
It's all done by machinery and technology. To tell you the truth, when I found out, I was impressed. But it is all fake and some of it pretty tacky: that skin-crawling hiss you can here in the cellar is someone hiding in the chimney stack shaking rice in a tupperware container. When I say it was all fake, what I really mean is that it was all fake, up until last summer.
This is where I come in: Hello, my name's Chris and I'm a mutant. "What can you do, Chris?" I can turn into a ghost. "You want a lousy minimum wage job, Chris?" Oh yes, please!
Sure, scaring the bejeezus out of rich American kids was a laugh for a while. Business was booming. Making Derek Acorah cry on Halloween was great. And noone cared that I was a mutant because it was lining their fat, stinking pockets. The only drawback was returning to the mansion covered in goo, those supernatural excersions were taxing, and it took ages to wash out. Even Locksmith had trouble with the blocked pipes.
Then today happened and now I'm jobless and Wii-less. To hell with the capitalist pigs who run our world and make us crawl over the hot coals of underpaid labor for a bit of green. Who are they to tell me how to do my job? What do they know about being a mutant? About being a ghost? They're lousy fakes and when this gets out, I won't be the only one without a job. At least, I can hold my head up high and say my conscience is clear.

You kidding me? That's kid stuff. Put it to you this way - if life were the Matrix, I would own Neo's pasty hide.Wait, you can figure out people's IP addresses? What? That's...uh...fun to know.
Written by MagnetMan @10:08am
You might not like my attitude, but the sooner you learn how to cut loose and enjoy your powers, the better off you'll be. Guess you think you're magnetic? Try going to a scrap yard and play with metal junk. You'll feel better, believe me.
Mutants everywhere are brothers and sisters. Pass it on.
Written by Technofreak @ 2:00pm
Hmm, if you honestly believed what you preached, then why is there so much hostility towards the "bleeding hearts," and the "geeks with the hero complex?" I mean, if we were brothers and sisters, then couldn't we get along, at least for the sake of mom and dad? Or is sibling rivalry the way to go? Frankly, being one of seven children, sibling rivalry gets really old really fast.
As for my day, it was uneventful. Did a hand plant, then a triple backflip off of the steeple of the nearby church while rollerblading today. I landed it with little difficulty. Should go pro. Problems with sponsors though.....they typically aren't "mutie" friendly....hell, even the "muties" aren't friendly to the "muties" at this point in time....
Note: running low on Slim Jims. Must buy more.
As for enjoying powers, to a certain degree, Technofreak is right. We have powers, we should have fun. Or at least, be productive with them. Magnetism? Win the science fair, help at the scrap yard, or just wow your friends by learning how to throw darts with your powers. I dunno. Doing that at least allows you to learn how to better control the "gifts" and "curses" that we are currently in possession of. I.e: Using a tail for hackeysack, and becoming the hackeysack champion, three years running. Booya
Of course, having your abilities for longer periods of time than puberty has a tendency to help in control issues.
Oh, and Spooky Sexmagnet, if you are indeed a fellow student, which I think you are, meet me later for discussion of various....activities.

Okay you know what, I can do without the hassle of classes in the middle of the day. Yes, I fall asleep. You would too if you had class at 4 AM. People don't understand how hard it is for me to climb off my perch when it's light outside. I normally don't have the best eyesight, but when its that bright out, it just hurts, and I want to keep my eyes shut.
Oh and the noise, yeah thanks for that too. I almost have a heart attack hearing that bell ring.
I don't get it. I already graduated high school and to be honest college isn't my thing. I mean I guess if I've got to learn something maybe tutor me at night or something. Doing anything during the day is such a drag.
Hey, Marty. Speak to a cousellor. They'll accomodate ya, I'm sure!

I am having to send messages from the Public Library. I have been on the run for weeks now. How do you like that one? I hurt someone. I didn't mean to. It happen. I am learning control, but it is hard knowing people are out there that want to hurt me. Why should I be on the run because some Flatline thought it would be cool to 'teach me a lession'?
I am not saying I enjoyed it. It just isn't fair I have to suffer because some moron still has a text book that reads 'Civil Rights: Troubled Waters Ahead'. Why can't the flatlines just leave us alone?
Posted by Darknessfalls@ 3:45
Jeez. This is crazy. I mean, a bunch of mutants blogging it up, posting their likes and dislikes like its a singles line.
Now, you, DarknessFalls, you got the right idea. It's good to share the problems, but not if you have a chance to get caught by the authorities. I kinda had somethin' similar happen. I still don't know if the several people injured by my incident are going to die yet or not....It pretty much shot up my life, my great career, my new way of life.
But it's not all a bummer. Now I am in a place called Cullen's, and lemme tell you; these guys are for real. They actually wanna help us. And it's because they're like us. And they've been around for some time now....Just find your way to upstate NY, and ask around, man.
You'll be glad you did.

Ok, friend of mine ran across this blog a bit ago, thought I might check it out. Interesting to say the least, I guess. You know I almost tempted to throw my own social BS that every complete internet tool loves to do for some reason.
But first things first:
ARE YOU ALL A BUNCH OF FREAKING IDIOTS?
I mean dear god Technofreak up there (you sound damn familiar), despite being a pompous extremist loon has a point. It is way too freaking easy to hack the net. Trust me, anti-mutant groups and corporation leeches WILL have their tech-nerds. You're all pretty much shouting "Look at me, I'm a mutie!" into a damn bullhorn.
Kudos to darknessfalls, at least he's linking from public access (I'm out of a University terminal for those of you who assume I'm a hypocrite).
I'm kinda laughing at you guys going back and forth with the whole Cullen's business and Technofreak's preaching (I honestly really think I know who you are now. Boss says you and 'Arms' aren't welcome around here anymore).
Winning team? Flatlines? Back and forth bitching? Jeebus half of you sound like you're partitioning off factions here. Human, mutant, over-sized lizard-men, whatever. If nutcases like technofreak and the Cullen's groupies are bent on turning this into a war, me and the rest of the 'neutrals' are just going to keep doing what works for us and let the poles wipe themselves out.
Heroes my rear.
