I would see my brother glitch out of bounds in games and it became clear that everything outside the play area was a facade, and there was nothing in those areas I couldn't get to but wanted to see.

This is pretty deep, bro; not gonna lie

I love to learn, but the more I learn the more I lose that sense of wonder and naivete I had as a child. It's very thrilling to believe in Santa Claus and God and all these other things, but as I get older the more I become jaded with the fact that reality is much more cold and heartless than we were led to believe growing up.

Monthly payment is getting dropped from $399 to $315 and I don't have to worry about making another payment until April 3rd.

Sweet.

No you didn't

No, no, no I didn't... but you can imagine what it'd be like if I did! Huh, huh?!

I'm taking the money because I've already experienced terrible back pain. Shattered my third lumbar vertebra in 2007 after falling out of a tree, had all five lumbar vertebrae fused and so now nothing that happens to me even really registers very high on the pain scale because of how much all that hurt.

"Ow! How dare you?! What is your problem?!" she exclaimed.

I calmly replied: "Hey, if you are what you say you are, you should've seen it coming."

Then I left and took my money with me.

$10,000

Stupid topic.

With $10,000 you wouldn't be able to woo a single female remotely as hot as Bliss and Morgan, though

Ask him if he can plug you into the NFL.

I'm 6'0" 185 lbs with a bad back.
I'd get destroyed.

I went to high school with Nate Allen, the NFL safety who was drafted by the Eagles in 2010 I believe.
We even had the same computer class together.
We weren't close friends or anything, just acquaintances but he was always pretty chill.

"Congratulations to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers! You did a great job representing the Gulf of Mexico."

Well I was close >_>

Nice try. I turned off during the 3rd quarter and 49ers are owning the Chiefs

Chiefs 21-0 in the 4th quarter >_>

GG, 49ers

CableZL posted...

Not impossible, but highly improbable

He's right. 49ers have 20. They can't get 21.

Damn_Underscore posted...

Why would they go for a two point conversion?

Desperation.

Damn_Underscore posted...

It's very unlikely that either team will end with 21

Another TD (with a 2-point conversion) and a field goal for the 49ers.
Two more TDs (with a standard 1-pt. kick) and a field goal for the Chiefs.

The statement itself is flawed because someone could be a huge fan of table tennis but others would regard that sport as nerdy.

Bumping for the people who deny my psychic powers

Mahomes throws an interception in the third quarter but it's not enough for the 49ers to capitalize on.

My sister got my dad and I Dunn-Edwards shirts along with these nifty pens that double as a stylus. What you got?

Do you sell shermin williams t shirts?

I want blue collar dad vibe at the gym

This may vary regionally, but as far as in-store clothing we only sell painter's pants and painter's shorts. Every few weeks we'll get shipments of shirts, but we really just keep them in the back and give them out to contractors as they ask for them. You could probably be lucky enough to just ask for a shirt or two at a local SW and get it complimentary.

Kajagogo posted...

What specific color is #4cbb17?

Kelly Green, however SW does not actually carry a standard "Kelly Green" color. Our database does have access to other company colors and we can tint their Kelly Green (Benjamin Moore, Glidden, Pantone, etc.)

I go to that store almost every day I'm a painter

We appreciate your business :)

Do you ever get high on your own supply?

No. Some of the products are quite odoriferous, but nothing so extreme that it ever affected my mind.

Irony posted...

The shampoo store?

That would be Williams Sonoma.

ProfessorKukui posted...

what color would you recommend to cover up bloodstains?

Something dark to hide the stains, but with a little green added because green will neutralize any red hue. To that end, I'd recommend SW6992 Inkwell. It's a very dark color--nearly pure black--but it has some green added.

Topic.

you're probably right, but that wouldn't make for interesting body horror

Oh, absolutely. I love this film. I regard it as a rare masterpiece that transcends genres.
I just find it interesting to think about real-world consequences of what goes on in the film.

Obviously it's a movie involving teleportation so accurate science isn't necessarily a guarantee therein, but I am curious about why his mutation was so severe.

The computer says "Fusion of Brundle and fly at the molecular-genetic level."

Even disregarding the difference in the number of chromosomes in human vs fly DNA and the problems a computer would have in fusing them, wouldn't the sheer enormity of the mass of Goldblum's DNA vastly overwhelm the fly's DNA, so much so that even if he did experience bodily changes and mutations they would be relatively minor compared to the asymmetrical "space bug" thing we see at the end?

If you arbitrarily weed out Michael Myers sure why not

Michael's tricky. His "immortal" status is a bit of a gray area. Like, in the context of the story he should be a mortal human. But obviously we know he's not.

Confirm for me. Dude is a hulking beast with mental disabilities wielding a chainsaw that never runs out of gas. Scary mofo.

He went from bit parts in random films to co-starring in the latest installment of one of the most successful franchises ever. Wut.

Im a moron and I wouldnt have caught the hint either.

That doesn't make you a moron, IMO.
There's a saying about Jeopardy I once read and it's very true: "every single clue on Jeopardy is very easy to somebody."

In other words, there are so many people in the world with various specialized interests and whatnot, that no matter what kind of fact Jeopardy conjures, you can rest assured someone knows it and would say "oh, that's easy." But on the flip side, another clue you may think is easy, that same person might have no idea.

As an example, I was perusing an old, old Jeopardy game on the online archives, and in the category "TV TOWNS" the fourth clue read: The Lawrence clan of the ABC series Family lived here, though for them things weren't always rosy.

I had never seen or heard of that TV show before, but the "rosy" hint made me think of the Rose Bowl and the Tournament of Roses, both held in Pasadena, California. So I guessed Pasadena and that was it.

I think that's one of the coolest things about the show. You don't necessarily have to know the specific fact on the board; if you happen to know a different fact that their little hint refers to, you can deduce what the answer must be.

We saw how Rey and Kylo were like overlapping their realities, even exchanging her lightsaber at some point.
So who's to say Kylo couldn't have slipped her a little bologna?

I once entered a pun contest, to see who could come up with the best pun. Each participant could submit up to ten jokes. I wanted to win, so I submitted the maximum of ten. I hoped that at least one of my puns would win the whole thing, but unfortunately, no pun in ten did.

>_>

So if someone posts about wanting to kill themselves, and I quote that post and say "don't do it, man" and try to talk them out of it, I'll get automatically banished to the nether realm simply for having quoted it?

Duncanwii posted...

I hope those of you quoting Chicken_Butt knows that threatening suicide is a automatic ban, even in a quote.

(1) If that's true then I'll gladly take the ban because that's a stupid fucking rule;
(2) He isn't threatening suicide; he's saying he would gleefully accept a fatal illness

Any good resources to teach a novice?
Primarily the major sports (baseball, basketball, hockey, and American football) but I'd like to learn a bit about every sport. So soccer, tennis, golf, bowling, it's all good.

Chicken_Butt posted...

I hope I'm one of them. I don't want to commit suicide because I know how much that will hurt my family and friends, but fuck, man... I'm so, so tired. I always think of life as just this shitty game I hate but I'm not allowed to quit playing on my own, I can only stop if I die. And if I don't have to die guilty, that'd be the only way I can die peacefully and actually get some rest in the afterlife...

Give yourself a goal, even if it's seemingly unrealistic or impossible. Having something to work toward will give you a renewed sense of purpose, especially if it's something that will take a long time to achieve. If you can train yourself to chase perfection, while acknowledging that perfection is unattainable and therefore the destination will never be reached, you will free yourself of the sense of pointlessness because you will day-by-day be improving yourself until at some point, you'll recognize that you've surpassed most of the people in your life, but you still keep going because your standards are beyond what others can imagine.

This should be fun

Curious to see what y'all think...

I saw a panhandler the other day and reached into my wallet to get a $20 bill. I paused and asked myself "Do I really want this money to be spent on drugs?" After careful consideration, I decided I didn't, so I gave it to him.
