Hey, how did your play go? Pretty well, I'm guessing, judging by your happiness. ;D
I was going through the actual Code of Conduct fanfic thingy and found several other very good ones (either very true or very funny ) that I think we should add to our list. They would all be in italics, of course.
- More is good, all is better.
- When all else fails, use the subtle art of sarcasm.
- The bigger the smile, the sharper the knife.
- If you love it, let it go ... if it doesn't return to you, hunt it down and kill it.
- When someone pats you on the back, always check for a knife.
- If you are cornered, break the wall.
- For every rule, there is a loophole.
- Good and evil is a relative concept.
- Blood is thicker than water, but that doesn't mean blood can't be diluted.
- There are two words that will solve any problem with a human source behind it. "Avada Kedavra".
- Bright colours are the devil's work.
- The truth is a terrible and dangerous thing, and should be avoided if at all possible.
- Don't underestimate the benefits of Muggle technology - there's no magical substitute for a rocket launcher. (;D)
- Tantrums are good. A systematic and brutal revenge is better.
- Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.

Oh yes, it went very well. Thanks for asking. -evil laughter- My history teacher was in it... I enjoyed watching him get beaten up by girls half his size... ;D Very amusing.
Lol. yeah, those are very good... Well, I didn't really like the "Avada Kedavra" one... just because. But I'll put the rest up there. Haha... "Bright colours are the devil's work"

Cool! Who did your history teacher play?
I don't necessarily agree with the Avada Kedavra one (all of the time ). I do find it funny, though, for the very least. Hehe, yeah I liked that one, too.

He was just a minor character with no name... like me. Heehee. I think he was some kind of soldier? Police officer? I'm not sure. All I know what that he, though acted tough, was beaten by two little girls.
Ah, he's really one of my favourite teachers. It was our final today, also our last day in that class. So we had to turn our text books in right? Well, after the test, he told us to hold our book in the air. That turned into a contest... who ever could hold the book up the longest. And guess what? He joined in too; wanting to prove that no one could beat him. Well... the bell rang to go to the next class and by that time, only about seven people were still in. ((including my teacher… and me)) None of us wanted to give up, but this one girl got tired and simply dropped the book. Another kept moving about so he got disqualified. And then there were five...
We all sat around, talking to each other; I was reading over my monologues for my drama final tomorrow. More time passed by and the most hilarious thing happened. ((Backing up a sec.)) This guy from the other class had asked why we were doing this and my teacher said it was for pride. Anyway, our Marine, strong, tough, macho man of a teacher gave up! He said something like, “You want pride, alright, here… -drops book- Johnny,” Talking to one of the two remaining guys. “This is the only thing you have to be proud of.” Of course he was joking… we are all use to him teasing us. Johnny just laughed and responded, “I’m going to come back and tell everyone that I beat Mr. Rojas!”
Ok, we kept going even after our dear history teacher gave up, refusing to budge. Three people were left, counting me. Instead of typing out any more of this essay like post, I’ll shorted it. In the end, at 10: 20, we he told us to call it a stalemate. We still refused to drop the books so he had to force it down… Haha, good times. He asked the three of us if we’d like a straight up “A” or lunch. ;D Wow. That was completely off topic.

*laughing* That sounds pretty awesome. So did you guys miss a part of your next classes? And did you end up settling for the A or for lunch? Hehe, what a cool teacher.
I was just talking to some of my friends who are involved with our spring play (West Side Story), and apparently a teacher is going to be in that too. It's probably just a small role, but they thought it was a bit weird.
About the Code of Conduct again, can we change this one As long as you win, the end always justifies the means.to just "The end justifies the means"?

*evil chuckle* Or... "the ends justify the means... and I choose which ends to consider?"

Sure, it's all good.
I was going through the Gallery quotes and found a couple that would be very fitting in our Code of Conduct:
- Be powerful, beautiful, and without regret.
- If you can't dominate...manipulate. (Di made this one)
- The best way to keep one's word is not to give it.

I swear, I could smash my computer right about now. I have been forced to use my sister's due to the fact that the internet always closes down on me when ever I come here. Argh! It's annoying. Also, this computer is way too slow!
You know, this probably was pretty stupid, but all I did was shrug at him because I was a bit… torn? Should I earn the grade or take his offer? Lunch would have been nice, but I was afraid of it. Call it intimidating…
Weird? Hardly! I think it’s great to see teachers get involved in school plays. It’s amusing.
Ah yes, I shall add those in.

Weird, amusing...they're all about the same. I'm sure your teacher wouldn't have given you an automatic A anyways, so it doesn't matter. If he would've, he probably would be violating some unspoken teacher code of conduct.
Okay cool. I think you forgot to italicize one of them. And did you change the Machiavelli one? ...And should we cite all the ones in italics, like you did with Di's? It looks a bit odd that hers is cited, but no one else's. I'm very picky about stupid things like that.

lol. Sure, I don't mind. Which would you prefer? Cite them all or just leave it italics? I'll fix that one.... No I didn't change it yet so I'll go do that now.

I especially dig "for every rule, there is a loophole."
So do you have any advice for us new Slyths? ;D

Ah, En.... That was like music to my ears... I’d be nice to have you with us… er… with Slytherin for more than just one week.
Advice, then? You know what En? I really don’t think you need the advice. There’s a bit of Slytherin in your veins already…

*smirks* My blood is green, after all.
May I offer one for the house's consideration then?
