I'm just sick about the marching band that I'm in. I love the music but the rest of the band just can't get it right.

I march in time to the music, but the rest of the band just can't get it right. There are 198 of us in the band and most of the time 197 of them are out of step. There is nothing I can do to convince them that even though they are all marching together it's me that is right. On a few tunes there is a Chinese and a Saudi Arabian guy who marches with me the rest of them are just completely useless!

The good thing is that I'm the biggest one in the band and I've got the most money so I don't have to worry about them. One day I'll just lose it and throw all of them out of the band. Why should I think I'm in the wrong just because 197 people tell me so?

I just read there are 147 million people in Pakistan, and that of the worlds 5.8 billion people, 3 billion of them live in six nations:

China, India, US, Indonesia, Brazil, and Russia.

I also read people from New Zealand suck.

HA HA, HO HO, HAR HAR.

I made the assumption this is a humor thread.

Is there another point you are trying to make?

Umm Yorick...our last census shows that there are less than 300 million people in the US, are you sure we are #3 on the population scale?

If you want bad, try my marching band: theres about 50-60...so you would think it would be easy to march in step right? WRONG! I swear its the freshman...they dont get it until the season is 3/4 over...*sigh* just one more year of that crap and i can go to a real marching band! Ah...maybe USNY has a good one!

I feel for you Lady Blue but the thing is it's all of them who are out of step. I'm fairly young and most of the band are older than me but I KNOW that it's them that are in the wrong. I wish I could just ignore them and keep myself to myself but I own a store and most of them are my customers so I have to keep them sweet. Two of them are arguing amongst themselves and I would love to leave them to it but they could cause a right mess. One of my mates (Tony) is trying to help but to be perfectly honest he's a bit of a twat (although I wouldn't tell him that! [img]smile.gif[/img] )
