You know you like them.

Zappa 10-19-2005 05:46 PM

We barely have any wrestlers here. Not a big sport in my neck of the woods.

That we are. :cool:

Happymeal 10-19-2005 06:02 PM

You mean there's such a thing as wrestling in real life?? Cool.

Anyone ever of this show called Extreme Makeover: Home Edition? It's where you write to the show and say "hey my house sucks and/or my family is going through some rough times" and they say "ok here's a week's vacation; we're going to demolish your house and build a new one with all the furnishings in a week! Then you can see it and be surprised!"

Well they're doing that to a family in Youngstown, Ohio today. I went to see it :cool:

Sadly, I've watched that show.

I've seen that show before, it's not bad.

Too bad the property tax usually increases after they build a more expensive house.

The show pays for that tax for the first five years. And they pay off their mortgage too :eek:

i watched it because my mom is a special education teacher and one of her former student's family was on it. it was the episode with the mute (or deaf) parents and the child with downs syndrome. the older brother, with nothing wrong with him, set it all up.

Insane like starving themselves and making themselves throw up in order to lose weight, among other things.

Dog 10-19-2005 08:29 PM

Someone tried to burn down the fine arts hall at my school today. Only got a couple of rooms.

Anxious 10-19-2005 08:32 PM

Was it a football player?

My brother and I have it all planned out on how to get on that show. I am going to be a former gymastic dancer who now has alopecia and no legs due to a drunk driver. And my borther will be immensely crippled, and my parents will both have AIDS from a horrible kidney transplant that has left them retarded. Then voila! a sweet vacation and a new house.

[QUOTE=Anxious Mo-Fo]Today I wore my Black Flag shirt, and something very unexpected happend. My English teacher, who is a middle aged man who looks exactly like you would think a 45 year old english teacher would look like, asked me if i really listen to them. I said Yea. He said, "So do you like that particular era of Los Angeles Rock?" I said yea. Then he said, "X is a good band, youd proably like them". And I said I already did. It was weird but cool.[/QUOTE]

All english teachers used to be punks.

pikester 10-19-2005 10:54 PM

My english teacher last year was a Priest. /awaits jokes about sexual assault.

Don't worry, we'll get those da[size=2]mn[/size] fine arts eventually. If fire doesn't work then we will just have to go to the theater, steal a projector, and project Jerry Bruckheimer movies onto the paintings until they deprecate in a fiery clash of Dada-esque deconstruction :evil:

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]Well, I was referring to the Vancouver show.[/QUOTE]

BSS is playing an All Ages show at the Commodore that afternoon at 3:00, and then a 19+ show that night.

Metric is doing the same thing on the 30th.

br3ad_man 10-20-2005 12:35 AM

Man, most annoying day. My friend said, not completely seriously that one day he would like to smoke weed. He got in massive trouble by about 10 of his/my peers. The amount of knowledge that the average student at my school has of drugs (eg not much) is appalling.

Robert Crumb 10-20-2005 01:24 AM

That's kinda lame. They ratted on him just for saying that? Sheesh.

Once when I was in high school while the teacher had stepped out of class, we did an impromptu poll to see how many people had smoked weed and every one except for like two people in a class of thirty said they had. Some might have been lying to try to seem cool but I'd smoked with at least ten people in there so... yeah. And that was a honors class. But yeah, I didn't really go the most upstanding high school in the world.

br3ad_man 10-20-2005 01:28 AM

[QUOTE=Robert Crumb]That's kinda lame. They ratted on him just for saying that? Sheesh.[/QUOTE]

It's ridiculous. They were making statements to the effect of "you're playing with your life there man", which is ridiculous. I mean, it's weed.

That's funny about your school, if we did that poll at my school, I think about 9 or 10 people out of 120 in my grade would say yes.

It's nice that kids watch out for each other but yeah, that is a bit excessively dramatic.

So long as they don't say that and then go drink a fifth of vodka.

br3ad_man 10-20-2005 01:50 AM

Yeah, there are kids who would say that and drink a fifth of vodka, but none of the ones today, which is good.

br3ad_man 10-20-2005 02:02 AM

Hey Zappa, I just listened to your album for the second time, it's pretty cool. "Potential To Float" is my favourite at this stage.

Happymeal 10-20-2005 05:26 AM

Gah I failed my license test yesterday.

br3ad_man 10-20-2005 05:44 AM

Don't feel bad, you're not the first.

That's the one he posted here that we helped name. I like it a lot, too.
