PORN IN MY EYE!


Heh.

My welder buddy cuts out chicks from porn mags (still have them, amazing...) and tapes them to the inside of his helmets. When he welds the light reflecting off the back wall lights up the inside of his helmet.

Man's a fucking genius.

I just feel like if I gave it to one of the guys I'd come home one day and find a bunch of guys, most of who I don't know, playing xbox in the home theater room, three feet deep in food wrappers.

Oh, and Enjoy! Lucky jerk. :happy0180:

I gave a key to one of my closest female friends. Shes gonna be living there until I return from my trip. I laid down some ground rules before I gave her the key and she better follow them but I'm pretty sure she will or she'll face some serious consequences.

And my family members live to far that they wouldn't be able to check in as frequently as I would like them too. San Francisco/Bay Area traffic + Toll booths can be a bitch. I don't want to burden them.

I was thinking about choosing one of my guy friends but then they'd probably show it off to girls, forget to water my plants, and furthermore wouldn't keep the sucker clean. Yeah, I have no faith in my guy friends, lol.

Actually scratch that, 15 pounds minimum.

I'm gonna try every tasty local dish that I possible can stomach. I can't wait to try me some authentic Chinese food.

I got the kids in the car, and waited for the owner of the other car to finish putting her kids into their seats so I could inform her and give her my contact info to pay for the damage.

I was waiting, standing outside of my car but not in a threatening position or manner.(yes something I think about whenever I approach a women I don't know) Seeing me there she opted to buckle the first child into the seat and then crawl through the back seat of her civic to get to the other seat so she could buckle in that child. When I saw this I got into my car, started the engine to indicate my intention to leave, rolled down the window and waited. After I informed her and offered to give her my contact info she said no before she even looked at the fender. She was visibly terrified of me.

I hate what feminism has done to create terrier in women. And I despise that I have to cater to that fear instead of just being able to speak to another human being. Feminists are the most active and influential terrorists in our society and I'm really getting tired of it being viewed as empowering.

This is probably what the woman is thinking in her head, lolol

The US desperately needs marijuana reform. The number of people in prison for victim-less crimes; the number of studies which disprove the government's claim of marijuana being harmful; the number of states which attempted to legalize but are harassed by the feds; the number of people struggling to receive medical marijuana for their illnesses... is staggering.

What does it take to get it legalized? Are we really under the impression that the government is "for the people, by the people"? The citizens of the US have been lied to, have their requests for change denied, and have been criminalized for the last 70 years...

In a time of economic downturn, suppressing an industry that regularly brings in more cash than corn, can provide millions of jobs and can reduce DEA spending is simply absurd.

My question is this; if we as a nation cannot change that law, how are we to think that the government is in any way shape or form not pursuing it's own agenda while being bribed by pharma and private prison facilities to keep it illegal?

Enough is enough, I'm really fed up with this.

I surprise corporations don't lobby more to legalize weed especially ones that provide a consumable product (ie. food). I think when a person smokes, they get the munchies so a person eats & eats & eats.

Although, we have an obesity epidemic and IMHO, I don't want to see attractive women pack on extra pounds because they can legally smoke and will eat with no regard for their health & looks.

Shiii, it's already hard to hit on relatively attractive slim chicks now, imagine if those numbers dwindle down. All men will be left with is chubby, overweight, entitled princesses who won't be able to live up a jimmy if their life depended on it. I ain't down with that.

EDIT: BTW, my Red BRZ came in this week.

At this point, I'm looking at phones with business in mind. So the WP8 seems logical to me to keep all things tied up at work and home.

Android was on my list but slowly dropped off since I view it more media vs business oriented.

The size of the Note II brings forth the thought I rather desire to have a tablet instead of giant phone. Plus I don't care if Lebron and his kids like it too.

It all depends on what you types of tasks you are doing *mostly* on your current phone. With smart/super/tabphone, most of the activities are not voice related, i.e. ppl use it to send/receive text or facebook message, view picture message sent by your friend, or browse web or forums like this. If you do need to call or receive call, with a Samsung Note (II) Tabphone, you probably will not use the phone to talk, but use a BlueTooth device instead.

I am currently fed up with squinting my eyes on a 3.5" screen and trying to decipher the stupidly small text that you need a magnifying class to read. Bigger screen the better.

Now, back to the business end, I used to have a WP phone (WP5 or WP6?). It is great that you can open Word or Excel documents on your phone, but then again, you need screen space to display them so that you can read it. The outlook integration worked pretty well with my WP phone, but I wonder if there is an equivalent thing in the Android world.

Just my 1 cent (not even a 2)..

3 months is plenty of time to exhaust all the "local specialties" in several regions. Just eat up, when you get back to 'murica you'll start to wonder whether the food is even seasoned with spices at all! :P

Ditto on the second quoted point.

Did the sign say "buy two and get a free tummy ache"?

What a show!!! I'm waiting for my train to NYC to come. First one of the morning and it won't be here for another 40mins. Fml. I need sleep in my bed! Lol. But I got a picture with Kyau & Albert. My life is complete!!! And while I was in Grand Central terminal last night I splurged on a new iPod touch. Probably shouldn't have, but oh well.

[Jayde]

Oh if I had to say something bad about the show, it's these points. First, they don't serve alcohol there. Guess they don't have a license to from what I read. You can BYOB but you have to keep it in a specific area and you cant bring it to the dance floor. Though I heard they provide ice and it's secure. Since they don't serve alcohol, it was an all age event. Kids were everywhere! I'm 23 and that made me feel old. I could've sworn some boys were like 14. And lots of underage girls too. I stayed away from those. But these kids have no respect for anyone else. I can guess half them didn't even know who was playing, they just decided to show up. But I did meet a guy who did the campaigning for ASOT 600 in NYC. Great guy to talk to. He showed me the shirts being made for the event. They're so nice!!
