"GCSE Results"

21st August, us doing our GCSEs get our results. Post your results in this thread and see who is the smartest 15/16 year old. I'm only doing IT and Maths because I'm "smart" and doing them a year early. Anyway, post your results.

No, because with a little luck, there'll be a misprint in the certificate.

:D

Oh, and if the god of luck decides it, he may randomly change the grades you get, whilst they're being delivered.

:D

Hmm I don't crae if you believe in luck or not.

How often is it on these forums that someone, like angel, decides to be nice to someone?

Here's Blanks exact words which I had a problem with, written by Blank in a life forum topic concerning fighting terrorism, Blank writes:

Draw from it what you will. I pointed out he should not associate the destruction of terrorism with the destruction of Muslims, as we all know terrorists are not true Muslims, nor is the Muslim faith the only one perverted by terrorists in order to justify actions that no religion in the world justifies.

You said the words, not me, and at no point anywhere do I refer to you as that. It was a supremely stupid comment to make and you know it, so just admit you're wrong before you make yourself look more stupid.

But isn't wishing someone luck after their fate has been decided a little stupid?

That's what I'm trying to say, it doesn't matter whether I believe in it at all, because even if I did I'd still think it was too late.

Then stop calling me a racist.

Exactly, Memorandum, you make my point for me, you say "personally", @ngel obviously "personally" believes in wishing them luck now, you "personally" don't believe in luck. Neither of you is right and neither is wrong, but it's about time most of us tried to be a little tolerant of one another.

Let's see:
Before exams: Good luck - "I hope you do well, hope everything goes OK, etc."

After exams: Good luck - "You've already completed what will decide your grade, good luck".

Now, personally I don't believe in luck, BUT it's fair enough to wish someone well in an exam, ie. hoping it goes well, but it's much too late to do the same when everything has already been DECIDED.
