  1. Link .33...PSH may have died from heroin, but Alien Jourgenson is going to die from alcohol poisoning, mark my words. It should come as a surprise to no-one when it happens.
  2. They're saying up to 1/2" of ice over here. Ice. Basically they're saying, no-one can drive on that shit, not even the trucks that are supposed to spread the stuff that makes it drive-on-able.
  3. I should go home. Hell is about to freeze over.
  4. Oh, shit, I didn't even think about that. Yeah, that's gotta suck.
  5. You need power tools. Sent from mah phone-blet via Tapatalk
  6. #HowSeattleRiots is hilarious. Some examples: - Shopping in the non-organic section. - Commits code without any comments. - Crossed street even though I didn't hear the chirp and sign still read "Don't Walk". - Doesn't leave a penny. Takes a penny. Doesn't even need a penny. - Double cups the latte. Gets a plastic lid. Takes two cardboard sleeves and a hand full of paper napkins. Not ironically. - Admits the weather isn't that bad.
  7. Don't most of the DIYers have their own thing? It even has a name -- it's basically just planks and bolts and rods. "Flexy"?
  8. Horrible, horrible album cover. Excellent, excellent music. (Space/prog with lots of Pink Floydian slower moments)
  9. My pile of mush resembles that remark. You ever try Cold-Eeze? It's basically Zinc Gluconate.
  10. My thoughts, exactly! Gamera was my favourite, and for some reason, I never saw that before. Maybe it's because I only watched what was on broadcast television. But still! Also: Gamera might be the greatest name for a turtle, evar.

  12. Chalk's Chili Concoction

  14. Macallan sells for record amount

    She so hawt...
  16. Yeah, see, I don't get this. Referencing Doug's use of "Dukkha"/"pain", what you said may be true in the future, but I think currently there are too many unknowns and too many variables for me to safely feel comfortable saying that. They can be an amazing choice, but they can be an inherently worse choice, too. That's just not a risk I understand anyone willing to take. When I read science fiction novels like Richard K. Morgan where everyone takes drugs in the future to "fix" themselves, I laugh, because I know that is so far away. We're still in the dark ages. Sure, your own personal circumstances might be such that you've had a lot of good luck with them, but ... well, as a contrasting example, every time my mom took a new medicine...EVERY TIME...(alright, maybe not 100%, but >50%, and I am not exaggerating about that)...she exhibited at least one of the less likely side effects. And considering her blood runs in my veins...that's just not something I'm willing to even remotely deal with. And really, heroin? You'd do heroin, other than it hasn't been available? Sorry, I'm not going to mince words -- that's fucked up.
  17. In Nate's defense (not that he needs it), he did say he had mixed feelings about it. And sorry, but so do I, I just didn't post about it, because I couldn't think of an eloquent way to say it. I'm explicitly not saying I don't care or I'm not surprised or anything like that, I just don't know what to say, because then I start thinking about other people in my life that are in the same boat, and start to feel bad about not doing anything about it, but then I have to remind myself that they have to want to get better and...yeah, what Nate said about the novel.
  18. Hey hey hey! As a seasoned grumpy asshole who often doesn't get well thought-out answers to serious questions, I resemble that remark!
  19. Fax please. I just made my super-duper-ultra-easy chili -- 1 packet Hard Times Terlingua Red mix, 1 can tomato sauce, 2 lbs. meat, 1 can black beans, added additional chili powder to taste and oatmeal to thicken it up a bit.
  20. Aw really? WTF. So this is one of the last things he did?
  21. Every once in a while, some stupid shill comes in here and tries to ask that question, and mentions the Beats or some other horrible brand (usually Beats, though), but never do they mention any actually good headphone in the price range, I.E. the actual competition. We've never fallen for it before, we're not falling for it now, and you can repeat yourself however many times you like, we will never fall for it in a country with freedom of speech. Maybe try North Korea? You're welcome to express yourself, just do it elsewhere.
