My Ring is 10k gold with a red stone (our school color) and has my name in the band too.
We are the Rapids Red Raiders and we have a red Indian as our mascot. I have "Onward," our state motto, written on it.
It's a nice ring and one of my better high school memories.

A late follow up to the monkey in a watch photo....If you need a flashy watch to get a job...rather than the content of your brain....Well that speaks volumes enough for the smart people in this world...I qualify for MENSA....And i see the comments fall far below this level.....Same for the stupid hiring of tall people to fill exec. jobs?....how moronic........I hire for intelligence....not ceiling clearance......

Mensa huh? SO, if your some type of genious why can you punctuate properly? And what's wrong with having a expensive watch? You don't see lawyers and stock tradesman walking arout in $30 Timex's now do you? Better Job = More $. More $ = More expensive items.

that's why i got creative and scared them in high school...well, at least my freshman year--before i grew enough to actually kick ass. right after columbine, i was wearing trenchcoats and neo-nazi military garb...and actually hit a guy in the school parking lot with a friend's car...4 times. for fun and on video. :-)
mang, people showed how little it took to scare them back then. no one bothered me after they saw what my crew and i did to entertain ourselves.

semi-relevant, but it's really too bad to me that society is so very materialistic. it's wasteful and, in my opinion, shameful.

The monkey in the watch? What the hell is that supposed to mean? I wanted to have a nice watch so I got one. You don't want one, don't get it. Nothing to do with how smart you are, but a nice appearance gives your employers a better impression of yourself. If you go to a job interview dressed in a t-shirt that says Canada is America's hat, good luck trying to get that job. If you do qualify for MENSA maybe you should learn that an ellipsis contains three full stops, and that you aren't supposed to use them all the time.
@Estuanis
I hope you didn't take offense by that comment. I'm not exactly popular either. I just have my friends, but we aren't the cool kids by any means, just laid back.

Same here. All I have is my friends and I tend to keep to myself for the most part. I get in fights a lot though. People think since I'm big and slow I can't fight. So they try anything and everything to piss me off... I've broken a few noses and knocked one guy out cold.
And just to clear it up. E-S-T-U-A-N-S-I-S
You are not the only one to misspell my name, though.
A play on words. Inspired by the Estuans Interius, a Latin text that uses some of the first known poetic rhyming.
EDIT:
Part of it is even used in "One-Winged Angel" by Nobuo Uematsu; which is included in the soundtrack to Final Fantasy VII.

I tend to not get in fights. I'm pretty big, even though a little chubby, but I'm a easy person to get along with. Plus I don't want to be expelled from the Health Academy so I just back out if things start to get heated.

I mean those t-shirts are funny, but only in an appropriate environment. If you want to check out funny shirts go to Busted Tees, or T-shirt hell.

That's such a typical response....Why is it all my freinds that have money have no need to flaunt it?......And all my struggling freinds ie ... paycheck to paycheck.... buy things to impress? They also have to charge for it...more debt.....? Ultimately costing them twice what they purchased it for after 10 years....Then getting another card to pay the first cards charges....and so on....Why do kids always put lipstick on a pig?.......Big $3,000 rims on a $2,000 piece of junk......Which your folks are making the payments and insurance on....

Umm, bro I'm not in debt! I don't "pimp" out my ride either. I'm getting a BMW M3 so no need for that, it's good looking enough at stock. Actually my dad is a doctor, but he also owns a car dealership, so he is getting me a good deal.
As for your grammar, you aren't supposed to use ellipsis all that much! They aren't a replacement for proper punctuation!

Abuzar has a point... just for reference ellipses are the "..." you use after every... word...
My latest acquisition, a new job in the cranberry marsh making $9.50 an hour full-time. I'm gonna be working from 3am to 11am every morning. 6 days a week for 6 weeks. I'm gonna end up with $2400 by the end of next month.

Just a guess on it with tax included. The full amount would be around $2800.
