The whole bill comes out to about 100k

And it don't feel right to not pay it back

End of story

okay, what did you do, since you think it's relevant

did you burn down the school gym?

dont tell me that's a crime too!

I wouldn't be talking about it here if I did

it IS, Alinpass - but your secret is safe with me

I'd rather keep that private, if you don't mind my lack of disgression.

true story I almost blew up a whole town lol

digression*

You know what I mean

Well, I'm trying to figure out what level of teenage stupidity you committed that nearly got you a jail sentence but you skated it, and you feel like you owe your parents a huge debt as a result

turns out that if a grain silo has been empty for 20 years if you make a campfire in one it's still a giant pipe bomb

and frankly i'm coming up with nothing that seems to balance that equation, and given your "i fail at everything" statements earlier, this whole thing sounds like depression talking

How do I put this without getting banned?

Mmmm

"Chemex, shut up, you don't know me"

😛

that works lmao

IKR lol

Perhaps I should cut myself for my stupidity and lack of seriousness

Ok, so it goes like this

I decide to write a book

Why

And I get about 30 pages in and hand it to a staff for proofing, because it's my first one

Well, he thinks I have other intentions with my writing

Reports and threatens cops on me

was it a book about a school shooting?

or more some existential teenage angst stuff like Catcher in the Rye without the gay undertone

Let's pretend that it alluded to that

Though, I didn't intend on doing anything

It was just a book

And I was trying to make a point

well then you did nothing wrong

so you wrote a pewpew shoot up the school fantasy, freaked out some blue haired school marm, your parents flipped, and the cops were in a tizzy for a bit.

Cops weren't involved

let's not assume fantasy

Though, the panic button was ready to be pushed

so the principal called your parents and that was about it?

Thankfully
