I was expecting the post time to be 4:20.

I'm thoroughly disappointed.




Wow! Musicgoround has some amazing deals on cymbals right now. 17" Vault crash for $140, tons and tons and tons of Paragons for dirt cheap. 13" hi-hats for $220, crashes and chinas also.

Berk 05-17-2008 03:37 PM

God I hate internet communication, it always takes me so long to construct a reply on facebook and the like. Real life > internet.

no :( The closest place was Columbus, Ohio and I can't really get there so it didn't happen for me.

ludvista29 05-17-2008 06:23 PM

Lawl Tom Waits. Now I have to listen to the song Tom Waits

Time 05-17-2008 06:25 PM

Um Tom Waits is no laughing matter so there's no reason to lawl.

Was referring to the use of "Skins"

That's hard to answer because it's the only place i've lived.

Where I (my parents) live is more for older married people who are looking to settle down for the long haul and realize how they are not at all young anymore. There are, however, lots of "big cities" in different parts of California such as L.A., San Diego and Berkeley that are more for younger kids out of college.

I'm not laughing at him..I just think its Ironic about how a band has a song named after him.

haha aww man don't be shy.

Orange County is 3.5 million people. LA county is 5 million people.

1 in 8 people in the US live in California.

80+% of the population of california is in LA, OC or SD counties.



However it is one of the most expensive places to live in the entire world. Has some of the worst air quality for the entire world. Worst crime rates for the country many years standing.
And other wise is a gaint **** hole.


I would NEVER recommend anyone move to So Cal.

Harrow 05-17-2008 08:52 PM

Yeah a high school buddy of mine is moving to SFO in the beginning of June. He just got his MS in Computer Science and hes going to be working at Adobe. He is renting a room in someone's house with 3 other roommates and he has to pay $1000 a month, talk about an expensive place to live!

Janeway 05-17-2008 10:17 PM

I always wanted to live in NYC or some other big a[B]s[/B]s city, until I got a f[B]u[/B]cking clue.

My house would have cost over a million to build in California. It was [I]less[/I] than $100k here, including the pool, barn, and gigantic a[B]s[/B]s back yard surrounded by acres and acres of nothing.

SgtPrimus 05-17-2008 10:45 PM

Sometimes when I try to play certain games this happens:[IMG]http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/2118/1234af3.png[/IMG]

Are there any settings that I could change to fix this?

Static 05-17-2008 10:48 PM

stop playing computer games and go get laid, faggot

SgtPrimus 05-17-2008 10:55 PM

K thanks

ludvista29 05-17-2008 10:58 PM

New Graphics card??? And what game is that?

SgtPrimus 05-17-2008 11:00 PM

Knights of the old Republic 2

It isn't the first time it has done this.

ludvista29 05-17-2008 11:08 PM

hmm. idk. Does it slow down too?

[QUOTE=Janeway;16345466]I always wanted to live in NYC or some other big a[B]s[/B]s city, until I got a f[B]u[/B]cking clue.[/QUOTE]

I spent about 4 hours in NYC (went to see Symphony X right after they released their new album).

I hated it (the city, not the show). There were basically three types of people I noticed. Really pissed of people, really annoying 'tourists', and homeless people. And I don't think I ever walked more than 20 feet without passing another person.

Janeway 05-17-2008 11:45 PM

I want to read the Principia Discordia.

I can't decide whether to print out the 121 page document, or just buy it.

Edit: I liked NYC.

I just...I don't know. There's so many people that nobody notices anyone else, and it was like a level of anonymity I've never experienced before.

fishbulb 05-18-2008 01:07 AM

I played a solid 2 and a half hours of ping pong tonight.

I rock.

DrumIntoTheNight 05-18-2008 04:37 AM

I have 35 NIN releases, is this excessive Y/N?

Panopticon 05-18-2008 07:01 AM

So i have a problem.

I work with this 45 year old guy, who is mentally unbalanced. He got in a car accident when he was 17 and was in a coma for a week. Where he works now is basically his last chance at life (his words, not mine) A couple days ago, he got in trouble by one of the managers and when we were all outside at the end of our shift he said he was going to kill him if he makes him lose his job. Somehow the manager found out about this (nobody knows who told him) and now everyone is getting questioned about it.

My problem is, i really don't want to get involved because:

a) If he gets fired, i firmly believe he will try to harm someone (me or anyone else)

b) If not some one else, i think he will try to kill himself. (He's been saying things like "I've already lost my wife and son, this is my last chance in life")

Do i tell them what was said, or do i leave it alone?

I personally would rather he wasn't working at this place anymore simply because he's a terrible worker. He's slow, physically and mentally. He also likes to tell stories about fingering his asshole and saying he should finger his cat. If it was anyone else i would know it was a joke. But I've had quite enough of it.

ant_182 05-18-2008 07:07 AM

buy him a cat when he gets fired :)

oliv_da_skinmasher 05-18-2008 07:09 AM

Just explain what happened. Not like you'll have anything happen to u

Panopticon 05-18-2008 07:38 AM

I know nothing will happen to me but if by chance he does do something to someone, or himself, i don't exactly feel like being the one responsible for it.

oliv_da_skinmasher 05-18-2008 07:42 AM

But you won't be. You only said what happened thats not doing something awful.

Also in my quest to ever expand my music collection can anyone recomend me some albums by The Roots?

SgtPrimus 05-18-2008 08:06 AM

The Tipping Point, Phrenology, and Game Theory are the only ones I have, but they are all good. I'll be seeing the Roots next friday.

[QUOTE=ludvista29;16345599]hmm. idk. Does it slow down too?[/QUOTE]

Not really, it just goes ape sh[I]i[/I]t like that.

oliv_da_skinmasher 05-18-2008 08:09 AM

Ta man
