I need some help planning a Jihad.
2004-06-02, 8:57 AM #1
Yeah. So today after school, these seniors came in (they had already graduated) and let loose some mice/rats in the school.
One was in the lobby, and of course everyone was panicking/screaming/running away from it, except for one guy, who picked it up, then punted it across the room. He went over and threw it to one of his friends, who proceeded to kick it. The administrators got there about this time and stopped it, and the say that they took it back to the pet store it was from. (Though we checked there, and they hadn't gotten any mice..)

Anyway, so some of my friends and I are outraged at these a*%@^@#s, so we're going to go plan a jihad. Who wants to join?

I have exactly what you need to plan your very own jihad. My friend Tony R. gets credit for making it. I hosted it so as to not suck up his bandwith.

I love people who think they know what Jihad actually means, but don't.

Jihad != Holy War

Jihad = Struggle. That is the literal, exact translation. Idiots change it to their liking and make it holy war.

Just one of those few things I hate... if you are going to poke fun at something, don't sound like an idiot while doing so.

(Another thing that bothers me, that is related. Calling yourself an Alumni of some school. You are not an Alumni, you are an Alum. You are not more than one person, you are just one person. So don't make yourself sound stupid and say "I'm an alumni of Ohio State, or something ignorant.)

Hey, guess what, I hate people who have to have everything exactly right and cry if things are not exactly to the point. Why don't you try relaxing and laughing at something instead of making yourself look like an *******?

This year the graduating class all wore masks, closed the doors to the cafeteria at lunch, and shot waterguns filled with beer, ketchup, and mustard at everyone inside. Most of them were caught, got their university and college acceptances revoked, and had to pay something like $5000 together to clean the place up. Served them right.

Because some things shouldn't be messed up. Like Jihad, for example. Might want to avoid using cusswords that are censored, since it doesn't make you look very bright.

Yes. I think I've heard "alum" used as a slang abreviation of alumnus(male) or alumna(female).

Just remember, Google is not an all-knowing entity. Google is something that lets you view what other people say.

Just to clarify even more:
There are two types of Jihad. The Higher (I think that's the term) Jihad is the struggle with oneself to become the best person you can.

A Lower Jihad is an earthly struggle. (Like a holy war.)

Jihad was on my GCSE Religious Studies exams, it was used to mean a holy war. Words can have more than one meaning, get over it.

Did you ever think that maybe happydud beleives that mice are the surpreme deity and evil overlords of this world? So therefore it is Jihad to get vengance on the mice-kickers.

Yes. Several people have said above that it can in fact mean two things.

Yes, they do. But A. This wasn't part of the senior prank, and B. What is funny about torturing a small animal that can't defend itself?

I am relaxed. But the senseless abuse of anything, animal or person, angers me greatly.

I was always a gerbil person. I love the little animals, they are so cute. They can run so fast they can walk on walls.
2004-06-02, 4:51 PM #27
Hmm... did you think that perhaps by 'jihad' he meant that it was his struggle (that being the lower and worldly form) against the students who abused the animals...? I don't see where the confusion comes in.

[http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif] So true. The really ironic part is that either definition works.

I actually don't have any chess club buddies. The chess club was disbanded after someone started yelling 'Suck it Trebek! Suck it long, suck it hard!' in the middle of a game. (The teacher is a rather uptightish super-orthodox (s?) Jew. He didn't like that very much.)

And then a good portion of the old team graduated last year. *weep*
