Posting flyers is tempting, but I'm lazy and don't have the money to make lots of copies.

i think its cool that mxers are reminding me of my favourite childhood tv programs with their avatars, eg dave toopes' gumby and struck everywhere's bananaman avatars...respect :)

by the way, whats buy nothing day? (or is this a stupid question)

Since the day after Thanksgiving is the biggest shopping day of the year, people against corporations etc have decided to make it Buy Nothing Day, where you show them you can go a day without shopping and such

UK: [url]http://www.buynothingday.co.uk/[/url]
US: [url]http://www.adbusters.org/metas/eco/bnd/[/url]

The episode of Beavis and Butthead with the Clash in it was just on, sweet. And I'm observing Buy Nothing Day, only because I have no money. Otherwise I'm a conformist :smoke:.

Only conformists smoke.

I don't think I've actually gone shopping on the day after Thanksgiving, too crazy for me.

I'm working on a new avatar, it will be awesome.

EDIT: I fayled

buy nothing day is pointless. they shrug you off and make their money the next day.

Seriously though, the company will not care. And there is no way you can get everyone to not buy anything.

I'd have to agree with TAND here, plus there will only be a very very small percentage of people participating.

They were absolutely crazy. ANd they covered Uncontrollable Urge which is always good.






Yesterday I listened to over 140 Bob Dylan tracks or 9-10 hours of solid Dylan.

Even if a lot of people participate, they still have to buy what they need eventually, so the company is not going to be hurt at all. It is like that time when they tried to get no one to buy gas for a day, estimating it would hurt mobil like 5 billion dollars or something. It was just a load of crap, they just jacked the price up the day before and the day after. And that day they had gas extremely low around me.

Can you O-D on Bob? Which one's your favourite? Desolation Row has always pushed my buttons, that or "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright", mostly because that's the first Dylan song I ever heard, and it was sung by an Irish folk musician and sounded unbelievable.

Mainly because the guy in my position in the A team is better than me :thumb:

I don't understand cricket at all, I have watched it and tried, but still couldn't. It's pretty confusing for me.

I aim to please. That, and Gumby is awesome.

F'uck, my shoulder has been killing me the past few weeks. I think it has something to do with the way I'm sleeping. Drumming probably just aggravates but whatever. My doctor reccomended I get this $130 tempur-pedic pillow. F'uck...

What can I take to ease the pain?

Take like 30 pain killers.

Unlucky man, it sounds like your in a lot of pain. Just take a alot of pain killers or buy the pillow but that is pretty steep.

That sucks. whenever I sleep wrong, it's my neck that hurts. Tempurpedic pillows are so nice though, i felt one at a friends house.

I drum too!

What are you people up to today?
