1. Go to Target
2. Dig in trash for a reciept of something costing $20 dollars
3. Walk into store, make sure no one is looking, pull corresponding item off shelf
4. Go to return counter, say you no longer need/want said item for some reason
5. Walk out with $20!

:thumb:

yes but, you forgot about bar codes. every item is registered and it says the item skew on the recipt.

[Evanw]

and they wont match up then youre screwed

Yeah that's what I was thinking. And I don't know anyone who throws receipts out in front of the store anyway.

[cheeser_1]

not all SKUs are per-item. and not all receipts have SKUs, do they?

[IxPunchxCops]

ok DIY right? how bout pircings?? I was sitting around, and realized I didnt have a single pircing, and I was like "hey im anti-comformist", but then I was like "maybe I'm just a *****". So I tried to pirce my belly button using a safety pin (shut up) I got it through, it was sticking out the out other side, but it wouldnt go any farther. I wasnt strong enough to push it through. Any tips??

[IxPunchxCops]

*****=p.ussy

[clash_hooligans]

Tip: I wouldn't try any piercing besides your ears yourself.

I'm pretty sure if you do your belly button wrong you can cause internal bleeding...

[IxPunchxCops]

ok well where ever, how would I go about piercing? Is it necesary to have a cork or apple or whatever behind it? Can you clean it with peroxide?

[Jessizzle]

Iv known many people who did their own belly butten.. and they all got infected then died. You could do your eyebrow just pull out the skin then put whatever your useing thru.

[cheeser_1]

there are things you can by to clean piercings, peroxide (to my knowledge) is not the best, and is actaully bad for facial piercings (which is not what you are talking about, i know). i'm also pretty sure that if you don't want to purchase this cleaning solution, (mild) salt water works okay.

safety pins are not the best for piercing with. unless you're using a very high (ie thin) gauge ring/bar/whatever you put in it, you're way better off using a hollow pointed needle. which means it will take a chunk out of ya, but that's the point. but that's also much harder to do yourself, and unless you think about it ahead of time, it's hard to get ahold of one.

the actual piercing part, there are two ways to go about it, i suppose, and i don't know that either is necessarily better. you can just jab, really fast, and go straight through in one shove. it's fast, at least. or you could push it through slowly, which is a bit more controlled, but of course, very slow and less forceful. i recommend the first method for places where the skin is hard to go through or if you're using a hollow point needle. in your case though (unless your belly button is like, really tough skin), i'd say going slow would work fine, but you've still gotta get it through.

if you have anything like a cork, useless book, big eraser, or anything else hard that can absorb a safety pin jab and you won't get upset if it does(ie do not use a kitten, jello, piece of pie, etc), use that. just hold it on the end you're piercing out of, and push through into that. i'm not sure how you do it with the belly button (just stick it in there, i guess, if you're an innie).

you have to make sure you pierce deep enough that it won't surface (important for things like eyebrows and stuff). so be sure you aren't just going through some outer layers of skin, because the ring will just move its way out, and you'll have a stupid looking scar usually.

and for the record, belly button piercings are not categorically non-conformist (i would say quite the opposite). but then again, we can be sure someone who "punches cops" is way too punk rock for all of us. :lol:

[IxPunchxCops]

lol I know my name is gay, I was doing it to make fun of myself really. It's so sterio-typical to think of punks as people who would punch a cop, but I actually did it (he deserved it) and it felt really good and I don't think I've ever run that fast in my life.


(I was saying not having any piercings was non-conformist)

[cheeser_1]

lol I know my name is gay,
no, it's not. it's stupid.

[rockisdead]

no, it's not. it's stupid.

yeah to have a gay name it would be somethng like "i bum boys" or something like that.

I cant complain, im named after a marilyn manson song :upset:

[IxPunchxCops]

ok, so I know my name is stupid, sorry for not being pc. but it still wouldn't be gay if my name was I bum boys, although I'm not sure I could, cuz I'm a girl...

thanks socrates. any other philisophical delights you wanna throw this way?

note: if you didn't get that joke, go read a book or something.

[RevengeOfTheVillageIdiot]

cheeser, you're not funny. dont offer bad advice on a topic you dont know about

would you like to know that hollow needles dont remove skin?

[SantaDuJuan]

How could a name be homosexual

I say that to chaps in my school and they called me a fag. But then I show them my girlfriend and I call them morons. I love my school. :)

[cheeser_1]

i have this funny image in my head where they call you "fag" and you pull your 6 inch tall girlfriend out of your pocket or something.


and village idiot, don't lecture me, i've pierced myself before with and without hollow points, i know the difference, the hollow point for me most certainly took out a chunk of skin or flesh or whatever it was. maybe im' so punk rawk that i used a needle that was too wide. does that make me cool? do i care? no. eat it.

[SantaDuJuan]

No, we all conversed with my girlfriend.
Cheeser you could have done better.

well, you are wrong, ive pierced myself plenty of times, and been peirced by others

the only time a needle removes anything is if you twist it, which is a rediculous thing to do, or you use a MASSIVE needle. needles cut a cresent, then the shaft opens it up

or are you just gonna keep saying you're right?

[CDR_Cool]

Not at all. Try it for yourself.
hahaha. don't forget the ladder. that's only fun when you do it yourself

no I'm just kidding
does anyone know what a good program would be to edit and record music??

[Anarcho Poser]

I use my video camera to record, and audacity to edit, but it's not very good because it saves it in a format nothing can open, so I dunno.

[Brain Toad]

Cool Edit is great for editing and recording music.

[1n d3n1aL]

where can I get that?

[Anarcho Poser]

He has it on soulseek, and you could probably get it from a warez site or bittorrent, links to which I will not post for legal reasons.

[Scabies]

dude, fight the system and post the links for the little guy

sell out isnt a ****ing verb!

Who cares?

[cheeser_1]

sell out isnt a ****ing verb!
yes it is. idiot. "this band sold out" works just as well as "this band is a bunch of sell outs." i think maybe what you're trying to say is that an album can't sell out.

[RevengeOfTheVillageIdiot]

no, you dont say the unseen is sellout, and their new album will be sellout, do you?

[Anarcho Poser]

No, but you say they are sellouts and it will sellout.

[Platinum_twf]

the video for Rock the 40oz is DIY to the core hahaha

I didn't know they had a video, do you have the link for it??

[Brain Toad]

Haha it looks like they filmed it on of those film your own vid booths at amusment parks.

[victimofreality]

no, you dont say the unseen is sellout, and their new album will be sellout, do you?
That isn't using it as a verb. That is an adjective.

Being a percussionist my whole life.
Put them where you want them. It all so matters what you are playing the most. Some have the trio Hi at, Bass drum, and snare. Others play all of there trap kit.

I don't think it works all that well.

[asdf]

I've thought about trying that, although I think it would be more interesting to learn to silkscreen.
It would make my patch making easier, though.

anywho, I've finished all my patches so far, but I'm going to make more. I'm even going to make more for some of my friends, as soon as they get me the supplies (it's a trade).

I decided to put all my patches on this jacket, since I don't have room on my backpack. It's my mom's old jacket from the 70's, but she doesn't care if I sew the patches on or what. I'm not going to sew them on until I've got all the patches that I want done, so I can see how I want them to be arranged on the jacket. But here's what I have so far:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v614/asdfqaz/jacket.jpg

I made all except for one of those patches. The one I didn't make is the red one from a local band. Their patch sort of inspired me to make my own.

[Anarcho Poser]

looks crappy. Rearrange the patches.

Thats seriously the worst.

At least glue them or something or use smaller pins.

[Brain Toad]

The weather is starting to get too warm for my jacket. So I'm probably going to go out and get myself a denim vest or a jacket and cut off the sleeves. I feel odd when not wearing anything patched nowadays.

using the iron-on paper works well if ye do it right. get yerself some natural canvas, and then print out the design and simply iron it on, the thing ye needed to do right, was use natural canvas. :lol:

Those patches are really nice. What do you use to make them???
Well, I've said it before in this thread, so I'll just go dig up what I said before:

I also make my own patches. The way I do this is I print out the image that I want from my computer onto some cardboard-ish material. Then I cut the image like a stencil and use fabric paint. Fabric paint pens work a lot better then just bottles of fabric paint, but they run out much faster.

Thanx for the info

[AndreTheHyena]

Aight, this is kinda random and lame, but does anyone know any tips for hand-washing clothes? I'm just gonna fill the sink with warm water, I guess, and add soap and slosh 'em around and then rinse and air dry 'em or something. Any other tips would be appreciated.

[sketchyjoe]

I think its better to soak them in cold water before you put them in warm water.

I like the jacket, but definitely don't take off the sleeves. It simply wouldn't look right for that kind of jacket. I also wouldn't suggest adding anymore patches or studs, because it would probably make the whole thing look overdone.

It's been done for a while. We had an awesome CD Release Party in which we played three acoustic sets and I drank too much. The mp3s should be online within a month, sorry for the wait.

There's at least one new song up on our myspace: http://myspace.com/vigormortis .

(The new song is "The Magic of Firearms".)

[cheeser_1]

daily? what's wrong with you? that's crazy. you put it up, you leave it up. you do it once ever couple weeks, fixing it up as necessary (ie if it gets bent or something).

Mine always fall completely after a show.

yeah, but you don't wash it out, you just fix it up. and i mean, you don't go to shows daily do you? or maybe you do. which makes me jealous.

any tips on shaving a mohawk ive heard of using a strip of duct tape and folding it over so it lines out the hawk

Meh, I didn't do that. Its not too difficult. Mine turned out a bit thin though unfortunately.

[cheeser_1]

they beat you with the butt of a rifle and give you 10 cents a week. there's really nothing to it, so long as your hands work properly.

not that i know you, but you're probably too old and too white to make shoes.



now for the honest answer: i have no idea. haha. sorry.

Don't get one.

True punx shave their eyebrows.

[OI! to the World!]

yeah, but you don't wash it out, you just fix it up. and i mean, you don't go to shows daily do you? or maybe you do. which makes me jealous.

Usually weekly or maybe twice a week.

[cheeser_1]

once a week isn't bad for mohawk re-doing. any more frequent than that, and it's probably excessive and bad for your hair. or you could be a lazy bum like me and not put it up for like three weeks.

[Brain Toad]

That's what I would do if I had a hawk, let it rest for awhile, put it up, then let rest. Read let it rest as be lazy.

you're talking about hair, right? :naughty:


mine does that to an extent, but i have thick curly hair, so it's prone to falling over if i knock it around too much. which is a pain in the butt. on the other hand, if i make sure not to totally squash it, it works just fine.

Mine was a wee bit curly at first, but after as much hairspray and dying as I used to do, it was too fried to have any life or resiliance, so it wasn't that hard to keep under control.

[cheeser_1]

i agree, that works out quite a bit. so long as it isn't wet, the curls aren't a problem. it's the thickness that's the problem. it's just too damned heavy. stupid gravity.

[honkybrewster]

What do you spike it with?

[cheeser_1]

What do you spike it with?
a little bit of glue (to keep the form) and alot of hairspray (to hold it up).

[honkybrewster]

Depending on the length, the glue might be weighing it down even more. When my hawk was a lot longer I'd put on some hairspray to shape it, then run some melted knox gel through it, push it together into a point, and let it dry. It was unbreakable.

[cheeser_1]

knox gel
i've been meaning to try that. too lazy though.

[honkybrewster]

Ah well. It's actually some work to figure out how to make it just right.

[Brain Toad]

You aren't going to find many places with shirts under say 15 nowadays, unless you go to an online distro that does their own screen printing, then it may be cheaper.

[ratsinthecity403]

Has anyone here had any experience with doing DIY merch stuff for local bands?
I have a pins making machine and used to have the supplies for silkscreening until I ruined them, and am planning to start doing shirts, patches, and pins for local bands.
Has anyone had any experience with this...?

[dkm4life010]

i have a pin maker and make pins for 2 local bands
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v709/dkm4life010/new001.jpg
upperkut is my friends alternative band and shane is me name. i charge a buck but the pins a stupid 2 inches... meh, it works.

[ratsinthecity403]

cool...yeah, I've been doing the pins thing on a small scale, but am looking to do a lot more than just pins. I live in Utah so there's not a huge scene here, but I've been wanting to get more involved in it recently. I just don't know where to get started, and haven't quite decided how much to charge, or wheter it's worth it to charge a bit more for 'Made in the USA' shirts or not, etc.

[dkm4life010]

by "made in the USA" shirts do you mean non-band shirts? or shirts actually made in the usa. and for patches, i take the time to make them by hand. if you're going to sell them, pins= 75 cents (if small scale) patches= at least a dollar, depending on detail, color, etc. and for shirts= same as patches but...at least $10 i would say and then if more people buy them, slowly raise the price. and yeah, i live in chicago and the scene sucks. except for one anarchist/ vegan march at a meat factory...

[cheeser_1]

i think he means fair-labor shirts, ie not from a sweatshop.

sanitation isn't much of a problem. it's no different than piercing yo' ear, you have to heat the needle up. and so long as you don't start trying to tatoo intricate designs on eyelids, i don't think there is much to worry about.

actually gun control is no the answer. in scotland(i think thats were it is) every man is required by law to own a gun and ammo, and they have one of the lowest crime rates in the world and i believe they havent been in a war for 500 years

i have no idea where that came from, but also, you're stupid. the US is the only first world country that has as relaxed (if not completely neglegent) gun control laws as it does. most other first world countries have a yearly death-by-handgun rate of about 3 people. PER YEAR. in america, we measure those statistics in the thousands (and don't tell me it's a population difference, because that's still not the proportional difference).

as for your might-be-scottish example, that's dumb. you know what it is, when they tell everybody to have a gun? GUN CONTROL. sure, it's not the same gun control you might be used to hearing about on fox news or whatever it is you watch, but it's just another form of gun control.

[Brain Toad]

It's Sweden with the gun law, unless Scotland has one too.

You are also an idiot for thinking Scotland hasn't been at war for 500 years. Have you heard of World War 2? I believe they fought alongside the Brits.

wat u do to get a 'hawk is simple

acquire a hair buzzer, then go to a sister or mom or girlfriend or watever some chick and get like a hair clip like they sometimes use to hold their hair, then clip together what ever u wanna keep, then ldroop that to one side, then buzz everything on the other side, then put waqt u wanna keep over the side u just shaved and shave the other side, then put a****load of hairspray in ur hair and dry it with a blowdryer

Laminate the picture, then cut the stencil out of that. It's easier than thick cardboard, and holds its shape better than thin construction paper.
