Hey everybody, most of you probably don't know me because I usually come here and talk about stuff with no relevance to anything. But today is different. My friend Tom (known on charas as goatulon) is in trouble. His parents are forcing him to move to Texas. Unfortunatly moving to Texas will ultimatlely destroy Tom's life. He has alot of things going for him in Utah.
The town he is moving to is very small with few people to talk to. The town has no sports teams for him or anything else to do for that matter. Please take a moment out of your day to sign the online petition at http://www.petitiononline.com/txasux/ to help this poor soul.
Thank you for your time,
WeaselLord
P.S. If you can, I would appreciate it if you would spread the word to anyone you can. Again, Thank you.

As Texas is closer to the sea, tom is 85% more likely to be kidnapped by a sea demon
O_o This was kinda forced, but I'll sign it anyway
-
I'm sure Tom's Parents will let an online petition stop them from moving. _sweat_
-
I signed it. It probably has about a 1% chance of working, but that's still something, eh? ;)
-
Better than nothing
-
It's chances are slim, but we dont care. We are willing to try everything that we can. So please, help us.
-
True there is about as much chance of this suceeding as me being trampled over by a heard of rampaging donkeys while I'm swimming in the north atlantic ocean. But everything is worth a shot, and I thank all of you for trying.
-
Tell him to deal with it. If his parents want to move, nothings going to stop 'em. I just had to move from CO where all my friends are to CA and I was pissed, yeah, but it's a part of life. He needs to learn to freakin deal with it.
And boy, I swear to god, I oughta' beat you for all that crap you said 'bout Texas.
*mini rant over*
-
Look, if you dont want to help just leave. Don't get all mad at good people just because you didn't think of this seemingly good idea. Maybe you could have saved yourself with a petition, maybe not. We're trying to keep tom here and there is nothing you can do about it so unless you want to help please dont say anything.
thank you
-
There is no such thing as sea demons you joker XD

Hey, apologize, I've just had a really, really bad week. But there's someting I tried, and it wasn't some petition. I had set up living arrangements and everything, but my mom is the most un-reasonable person. Maybe you should try that. If someones got an extra room, lend it too him. But you guys can't whine about it. If it happens, it happens. Apparently, you'll still be able to talk to him though, so it's not like you're not gonna keep in contact.
But the fact that you said all that stuff about Texas means you've never been to the cities. Just the panhandle, where it's... quiet, is a nice way to put it.
So again, I be da sorry. And you should try finding a living arrangements, if his parents are rational people.
-
I can't blame a guy for not wanting to leave his life behind, but I don't think that asking a lot of people online to sign a petition is really the right thing to do. I for one am not in any position to judge if he should move or not, and I don't feel comfortable signing something I don't really understand.
Tom, if you are serious about not wanting to move, the best thing for you to do is confront your parents about it directly. I know you've probably tried that. I don't mean whining, I mean seriously. Get a list of the best reasons you want to stay and ask them if they have any of their own. If your parents take you seriously as a person and their son, they'll at least listen to you.
Ultimately, my guess is that they have their reasons for wanting to move and you'll have to just accept it. It's not the end of the world no matter how bad you think the town you're moving to is. I've moved like 6 times in my life, and have always found my place. You will find yours.
-
wait is tom moving alone or is his parents moving? cuz if they just maknig tom move alone, you know cuz they dont like him the u have a chance.. if the parents all want to go ur screwed

Not necessarily. My friend managed to convince his mom not to move.
-
I've had this happens. Nothing I tryed worked.
From Virginia to California in a ****ing week.
Hope it all works out for you.
-
-There are more Cacti in Texas, and considering Tom's clumsy nature this could be dangerous to his health.
:o
Anyways, signed. Nobody should be forced to move. IMO anway.
-
Sorry for being all negative an all but i think this is not nessesary, you dont want to move i get it , but look at it from your parents point of view maybe they want to move for thier own reasons, you cant just tell your parents "i dont want to move" thats being selfish, your parents put a roof over your head, put food on your table, and support you, and this is what they get in return!, in my experience i have moved 4 times and signing a petition never crossed my mind, useually i would put my other family members before me, the only thing i can say is the only way to stop you from moving is to graduate move back to utah and live your life how you want to. Sorry for bringing you down buts thats my opinion, you can try but i hope you think about it first.
-
Not to mention that the reasons are ridiculous. The one statistic about social lives is good, but sea demons? Catci? Cotton? Come on. If Tom is so concerned about staying, he's going to have to find some better reasons. Reasons like "Everything I know is here, and moving to another entire new state where I know nothing scares me!"
-
Seems as if he was going to be moved to a kid's land or something. LoL Seemingly Tom just doesn't really know about texas.
-
I don't want him to move at all if it will corrupt his life!
-
Actually ive been to texas and i really liked it there, you dont know unlees you try, you might like texas better than utah
Also how does he know if it would corupt his life? It might better his education, his love life (maybe), and his overall friendship
-
Bloody AquaDonkeys.
Sorry mate, but parents > children. You're gonna have to live with it.
-
i have my doubts, but consider it singed
-
Whats the reason of you having to move? Your parents think it'll be better for you to study there or something? They need money or something? If we know the reasons, then we can help better
-
Is this a joke? People move. You're gonna lose some friends. Its part of life, so I'd get used to it if I were you.

You're my new best friend :D

I'd like to thank everybody that signed and apologive to ZeroKirby. I overdid it back there. Anyway, the reason Tom is being forced to move to Texas is so his dad can earn more money, but the thing is his dad makes ALOT of money anyway. The extra money isn't really necessary, especially because of all the trouble it will cause Tom. They actually went on vacation to Texas about a month ago and Tom's father said he didn't really like it there at all. So we're just trying to get as many reasons as we can for them to not move, because chances are his dad won't like it there anyway.
-
Maybe his dad got fired, or knows he's about to be. If he's aready making alot of money, like doctor money, there's probably a serious reason that he wants to move if he doesn't have to. And I'm talking dying mother kind of serious.
-
Now I low the facts, I say you say something to them. If you don't need to go, why should the cons outweigh the pros?
-
Do you pay the bills? No. You don't know what could be going on behind the scenes.
-
but still i dont get it, now you say his dad does not like it there, why is he still moving there? if he was a true adult he would know that the extra money wasent nessesary, that means thats not the only reason he wants to move......... you have to get the facts straight.

I swear to God, you ******* moron, this is the dumbest thing ever and the most pathetic. You can tell me to shut the hell up and whatnot, and I can get warned and almost banned for this post, but I don't give a damn. LIttle Tommy needs to stop sucking on his mama's teet and grow up. **** happens but we need to get over it. Texas sucks? I beg to differ. I've lived in Texas my whole life and there is nothing wrong with it. Maybe you dislike it for its defficiency of Mormons. Who gives a damn? Tom, pull your head out of your *** and grow up.

O.o; Scary... and flame at the same time.

Exactly what You-Know-Who said in all his posts. You should sometimes think in the consequences you know.

Smae wityh Tom, he lived there his whole life, would you like if your parents just tell to you you'll have to move to a place you don't know, like... uh... dunno, just place you don't know and probably heard a lot of bad things about.. Like Africa?
