  1. Have you recently been the victim of blunt force trauma or undergone electroshock therapy? Or perhaps your taste in music always been this horrible? I don't normally listen to music when I work out but on occasion I will be inspired by such musical talents (and some not-talents) as sage francis, rise against, atmosphere, the killers, john mayer, blue october, circa survive, eminem, and many more.
  2. So I went out for my ritual once a week sandwich and the guy taking my order was apparently super pissed off. I think someone was a no show or something becuase there was only 2 of them and the other guy was on the phone and I think their air conditioner was broken as well (which is brutal since its like over 100 degrees out). Either way when he was finishing my sandwhich I could hear him cursing and lamenting under his breath. I then tipped him $2.72 and he gave me 6 stamps towards a free sandwich. It was pretty awesome. Extremely representationalisticness of my wisdom for investing. It's been like 3 weeks and my stocks roi is over 20%. I've also been playing a ton of heroes of newerth. Great game.
  3. Visioneers Happened to catch this movie by chance when I saw that my brother watched it on our netflix account and thought I'd give it a try since I had nothing better to do. The first pleasant surprise was Zack Galifinakis who was the lead of the story and who I am a long time fan of. It's a genuinely odd movie but it was also genuinely funny in my opinion. As a whole, not a great movie by any means but it had some things that I liked and some relatable themes and it certainly wasn't a bad movie. 7.8/10, give it a try
  4. Not interested until the humanoid love bot is released.
  5. You guys are only partially right. 4chan is a paradox. It represents the greatest fruits the internet can offer but also some of the most horrific. It used to truly be an amazing place. An oasis of wonder and delight but as with all things it has to eventually end. Either way I'm glad they are fighting back. Free internets is a god given right.
  6. Knowing Horrible movie. Cage has and always will be a real ahole in my book. He does too many crappy movies and far too few decent ones to have the fame he enjoys, very much like Samuel L Jackson. The ending and general plot were completely ridiculous and went past insane. The acting was bad, the music reminded me of some sort of 80's horror porno and really the only thing worse I could think of would be to add time travel. 3/10
  7. You should try making your own beer Taks. It's quite simple from what I recall especially since they have kits that give you everything you need. My friends dad used to do it (still does I think) and he had a few ribbons from local make your own brew contests and what not. Then again I'd only do it if you have some sort of shed or enclosed structure that isn't in your house becuase the funk that comes off the yeast is quite assaulting to the senses to be honest and trust me it pervades the entire house and takes a few days before it subsides. A sordid business in my opinion but kind of neat. I kind of want to get into micro brews and stuff but I'm not a big alcohol guy. Didn't even drink on my 21st or since or like 4 years before.
  8. leroy jenkins is black
  9. I watched the first transformers movie and I actually liked it quite a bit. It was cheesy and dumb and awkward at times but it had a ton of action and crazy effects which were pretty to look at. I'll likely watch the second even tho it's gotten horrible reviews. No score this time becuase it would likely destroy what little credibility I have left, if there even is some left, I don't know.
  10. Sometimes communication doesn't work and it wouldn't have worked here. Sure talking about things can be a great way to gain insight and acceptance in a situation, except for those times when the person your dealing with is a non truth teller and a complete son of a *****, which is most of the time since most people you get into drama with are non truth tellers and complete son's of *******. Communication, no matter how you boil it down, in this instance is going to be accusatory. When people are accused and you imply guilt they don't very often tell the truth, or at least the whole truth. It's quite a simple concept and although I'm no sociologist I'm going to go out on the a limb here and say it's a relatively accurate conclusion. I've seen enough cops and been through enough high school to know that when people are confronted they'll conjure up a lie with varying degrees of plausibility. The point is confronting this guy with no proof would have been a great way to look like an ahole. Put yourself in this guys shoes. You've been selling this kid out to his (ex?, love interest?) girl and saying inflammatory things and then all the sudden here comes alan and he says his peace asking you if he's been breaking his confidence. Yeah, Alan, I'm going to admit that I'm an untrustworthy cmongler and spill the beans. I somehow doubt that. But what I don't doubt is that after Alan fails to glean any relevant data that this guy goes back to the girl as well as his circle of friends and tells a different story, his own story about how certain events have unfolded. You're naive if you expect people to act with integrity.
  11. Maybe you deserved it for being a pansy? Despicable act? I hope that's sarcasm. Either way I would certainly say you were justified. Breaching personal contracts is completely legit if they are guilty, if not, then you're just a friendless ahole which is a small penance since most friends suck so really you haven't lost anything valuable. Have you confronted this guy yet? And what exactly did he say about you because it sounds like them be fighting words.
  12. lay down some sweet riffs and upload them so we can make fun of yo-- er encourage your progress.
  13. Perhaps in your region but here my mom's friend works 3 days a week and makes over 70k a year. My friends brother has been working for probably a year and a half and he too works 3 days a week and makes over 50k. Comparing pay scales, yeah I can make substantially more money in accounting but I'd also have to have a master's degree and CPA since most (professional) accountants tend to go into public accounting (auditing) which requires both. And you want to talk about unbelievably long hours, all they do is long hours in those firms. 60-70 hour weeks and coming in on the weekends is like the norm during tax season. Of course most people only stay 2 or so years before they move into something a bit more stable. And this has nothing to do with helping people either. It's just a viable way to make a good living and something I think I would be good at and possibly even enjoy, as opposed to accounting which I'm not sure I have the mind for. But whatever, everything tends to work out in the end for me and if it doesn't well I can always just scrape by until I decide to end it all or win the lottery or get rear ended and become a quadriplegic and sue the insurance company for an insane amount of money so that I never have to work again and of course video games will have advanced far enough by this time that I wouldn't have to use my gnarled and lifeless hands to play but with my mind and all will be well in the world and I will laugh maniacally at the fates until I crap myself and stroke out to death. It'll be amazing. Edit: @gifted well they do work 12 hour shifts and some of that is supplemented with over time or on call in which can really add up.
  14. So recently I've been having considerable concerns over becoming an accountant and I think I want to become a nurse instead. I know it's a radical shift but the career sounds very appealing in contrast. The unfortunate thing is the majority of my credits won't transfer over and I'd essentially be a begining sophomore again. There is some consolation at least that if I get my bachelors I can always come back but I'd only have to do 2 years of schooling. It's truly infuriating how the world works. They need better career counseling throughout middle and high school because this crap where you essentially pick the rest of the life with only a vague and highly skewed perspective is bs. And of course it's during a time and age when you have no choice but to be an idiot. What the hell? I'm angry.
  15. I have a love hate relationship with Vegas. Grew up here and have always hated it becuase its so hot and I got to experience the greatness of new jersey for two weeks of many years as a child but ever since going to Miami I have a new found respect for it. Still hate the heat but I belong in Greenland or Alaska.
  16. I live in Vegas. Glad I dodged the rape bullet.

    Books

    Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrel I've been told it's good. Plus it has magic.
  18. Oddly enough I started playing oblivion as well becuase I was bored but all this hating is kind of unfair imo. Sure it has some glaring flaws but it had some cool stuff in it. Like the Who dun it quest was pretty neat and oryen of the fighters guild drawing was pretty awesome. There was also the archmage traven dissing himself in the third person, that was a nice little glitch. Okay maybe it did kind of suck pretty hard but I kind of enjoyed it. :'(
  19. As much as I think doctors get a bad rap they are by far some of the most inconsiderate a holes around in my book. Every time I go to the doctors I think of a quote from the movie The Departed "feed you **** and keep you in the dark." I'm not a forward person so it's partly my fault but since when is it my job to have to ask him to elaborate on everything? The least they can do is at least tell me what it might be or my favorite when I get a letter in the mail 4 weeks later when I could have already stroked out or choked to death on a sandwhich and it simply says "negative." Negative for what exactly? I've been given 0 insight into anything regarding tests or options. It's a complete travesty. Now I'm angry.
  20. Speaking of Jim Carey I recently watched Yes man. Surprisingly enough it was pretty decent. unrelated @ hurl I've heard Dangerfield was a massive blowhard and kind a dbag
  21. arent you making a game taht involves making fun of history stufsf and what not kaftan? how is that going?
  22. I've read the tea leaves, just give it ugh 20 some odd years from now, Kor is sitting in a dark room bathed in the light of his holographic monitor. Dark circles and a haggard face wander the screen looking through a myriad collage of family photos. He stops at one in particular, cherishing a long forgotten memory. He's in his 50's, balding, divorced, and quickly on the road to losing his job due to his alcoholism and slipping sanity. His daughter and son won't return his calls. As he stares into the screen he takes a breath and then blows his brains out. Good night sweet prince. Wait, whoops. My bad, that's my future. Good luck kor. I believe in you.
  23. is it bad i don't know whats going on there? :'( plz forgive me wals
  24. Unless I'm misunderstanding you like this girl, thus you are serving as the emotional support of any relationships she has while she nails other dudes and your holding onto some desperate notion that one day she will come around, which will obviously never happen. So your just wasting your time and likely enabling her.
  25. You sound like an incredibly ronnery man. I suggest a dakimakura. That should clear things up nicely. Or get a sexual outlet?
