They only want you when you're 17

If you could have the power to fly, be invisible, or teleport anywhere, which would you choose?

Writer's Block: The Only True Question:

They only want you when you're 17

If you could go back and fix your most regrettable decision, what would it be, and what would you do differently?

Or:

Pirates or Ninjas?

Is this even a question? For those who still doubt the FACT that pirates are the dominant species, I refer them to Pirates vs. Ninjas: a Thesis

And if that doesn't dispell their doubt, I further refer them to Pirates and Ninjas Tested in a Variety of Everyday Situations

Pirates >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ninjas.
Any day, any time.

EDIT: Okay, wth? THIS WAS A PIRATES VS NINJAS QUESTION.

Writer's Block: Lame jobs

What's the worst job you've ever had?

Mhm. I've had some pretty shitty babysitting experiences.

When I was twelve and easier to push around, my neighbor would hire me to watch her three kids. She paid me like... a dollar per hour. And one time she gave me a book instead of payment. Yeah, thanks.

Then there were the kids who spent like two hours chasing me around their yard with lightsabers, until I finally decided to screw their parents "only 30 minutes of TV" rule and put on a movie. Little shits. They also got into my purse and tried to play hockey in the kitchen with MY IPOD.

Aaaand a few months ago my parent's friends randomly decided to go see a musical on a Thursday and dropped their kids off at our house. Through some sort of miscommunication, I thought I was the one in charge of entertaining them. So I spent a good 3-4 hours playing outside with their bratty daughter when I could have been studying. Or doing other productive things.
And then I didn't even get paid. Okay, I get it if you don't want to pay me full price since it WAS at my house, and my parents WERE there. But still. If I spent the entire afternoon looking after YOUR kids, I better get paid something. Just because you're friends with my parents DOES NOT mean I'm free labour. 

And that's why I don't babysit any more.
