It's the little things.
Yep
I made it back to MA for Christmas. On the not so good side, it's fucking cold!
It's like 20 or some bullshit out there!
New camera arrived earlier.
Turntables are a hot commodity? Really? I remember when everyone used to make fun of me for even knowing what records were.Quote:

Two days off!
Record players, not turn tables. I minced words. There was a couple big reports on it on CTV and Global last week.Quote:

(Pearl Jam being my go-to band) Spent has every Pearl Jam album on vinyl, some Alice In Chains, Mad Season and a bunch of other bands since the grunge sub-pop scene swept in back then (I think Blind Melon).
For a lot of today's popular music I don't see the point (beats and shit like that). Since it's all synthesized 95% from a computer anyway. I guess even Kings of Leon would sound better on vinyl. Atleast they record their soccer-mom rock sound.
Having alot of fun in France, I never knew I had so many relatives. May decide to stay an extra month, why not? Having a non serious job is the best.
Vinyl's been coming back for a few years now. With DJ culture it never really went away but consumers have been getting into it, too. Record companies are getting behind it because it's a more difficult format to replicate, I can't really imagine that this makes up for the terrible margin but I suppose that's why they're overcharging for a lot of new vinyl.
Where the hell is that picture in this thread of the two girls wrestling and that one girl is like TA-DOW! in that other girl's noonie. I need it to make a Christmas card. If someone can procure this for me, life would be very good indeed!
I think it's just starting to build up to the point where it's not-quite mainstream but might hit it over the course of the next 2 years. I mean, if you have an iPod and a record player you pretty much have all bases covered, music-wise.Quote:

Wow a carebear helped you pull your car?
CAREBEAR STARE
It does melt ice.
This pisses me right off.Quote:

one of my friends from my old Target store sent me this, someone wrote it on the sales floor :tu:

i totally agree with this
Bout to have good food at a friends, Finch got me an awesome new vest, and I a mastercard thing from grand parents that I used to purchase 3 games from Steam for $25.
Merry Christmas
Those VW Van record player dealies tear up records faster than anything I can fathom. My Dad has two and will use them when he goes to record shows as a display to get people to come over and check the fuckers out, but damn, if you have a record you actually enjoy, never let one of those things near it.
My mom got me some deep dish pizzas from Gino's for Christmas. Officially the best Christmas ever.
T'was a lovely service.
I'm making TNL history. Again. This is the very first post from a ski lift. Fuck yeah.
My 10 year high school reunion was last night and it was a blast. A lot more people showed up than I thought would, it was cool as shit to see so many old friends and reconnect. The place practically kicked us out.
Rhydant I know it's your birthday so you can do whatever you want, but I'm not sure I'd take my laptop skiing with me. Sounds like "crushed under my own weight after I bailed" might not be covered under warranty.
Also, HB to Phunbubba. You fucking cum guzzling cock smoking prag.
I'm building a new PC everyone go to sound off and help.

man, I wish my green eyes were that green. They turn more of a sea green.
Your mother's eyes were that green when she was consuming my cock. She looked pretty. Will do her again.
I'm pretty angry and happy about this. I made my little sister so angry she left the house.
Came in to work today and there are only 3 people here in my division. And none of them have anything to do with the art studio. So I'm sitting here watching YouTube video's, listening to my iPod. There's an open buffet at the Italian restaurant on the corner. So I'll go there for lunch and then leave at 1:30 - 2. I found out my first year of work what a waste of vacation days taking New Year's week off was. Nobody is ever here so if you don't show up or leave early, etc. they don't even know.
I got my Pro Tools (audio editing software/hardware) rig on my laptop working, so I can work from home again. WOOT. Driving into Baltimore from the 'burbs every single day can suck it.
A friend I lost track of for the past 3ish years popped up. Then asked me to be his best man. I'm excited!
Wow, you guys must have been really good friends to not see for 3 years and then best man status. Congrats! In my experience it was really fun.
You know that newspaper clipping where i got 2nd place and landed on the carrier in top gun.Quote:

a woman called work yesterday asking if we had or have ever had an employee named james jones. i said no, she explained shes 29, never new her father and is now looking for him, and her mother said he used to work for ups in the area. turns out shes looking for our old driver jimmy, so we called him and gave him her #. he said he hasnt seen her since she was a baby and her mother told the girl her father had died after they moved across the country. still waiting to hear the rest of the story from the driver, but it gave me the warm fuzzies, reuniting family members for the new year :)
Just found out that the Fun Brigade is featured in a documentary on the (world famous) Charm City Art Space.
I have not seen said documentary yet, but I REALLY want to.
Also, the Quarantines just got put on a show with my favourite active Baltimore band. :D
I found a really nice Singer sewing machine today at Goodwill for $20. Everything works and it's in beautiful condition with all accessories and the manual. Even if I don't end up keeping it, I can resell this thing for way more than $20.
my last girlfriend and I was talking this morning (we stayed friends and talk to each other often) and she told me that she misses me a lot :) I'm not gonna jump the gun on this, just gonna ride things out and see where it goes. She is a really cool gal that understood me and not only does she put up with all my silly shit, but she actually likes me for me :)
I really hope it works out again and we can give things another shot sometime soon
JIMMY!!! That's pretty cool! Tell him I said hi. :)Quote:

Hello.
I am new here an my name is Joseph.
I also want to give good wishes to all the members here for the new year. May this year bring glory and peace to all your lives. I put my first post here as I like the discussions here as I am possessive for my girl friend.
I was hoping harrypott would post.
You have a thing for international spammers?
His pott is hairy.

I'm eating collard greens, blackeyed peas, and cornbread for dinner.
Got some stuffs on Super Sale with christmas monies.
I did this too. Who the fuck started this tradition?Quote:

This is correct. The yellow bottle is for children.Quote:

I'm for real jealous, most of the Suicide Girls are fucking gorgeous. They just need to do full on porn. Otherwise, still jealous. Save/send some awesome pictures?!?! that was the deal for your shirt you asshole whom I love!!!!!
In other news I missed going to Avatar in IMAX but I may have someone sleeping in my bed tonight. Even if that doesn't happen, I just had cocktail weenies in a brand new and awesome sauce (grape jelly plus chili sauce, ZOMG awesome). It works well with any small meat product, first tried on meatballs, which were perfect. Hapenis.
I've heard about meatballs in grape jelly-based sauce. It sounds revolting but I'm still kind of curious!
I got switched to an antibiotic that's a lot easier on my system, am pretty well painkiller'd up and I have Jamaican beef patties and cane sugar Coke in glass bottles. Pretty good!
yesterday my mom took cocktail weenies, wrapped Bacon around them, sprinkled brownsugar on them and backed them....i ate like 20 of them...they was amazing!!
:awaits mom jokes:
Guess it went well then! Good job!Quote:

Just got back from a fantastic show tonight and am well not exhausted but a bit sore! so just as good.
Well, we'll be welcoming in a little BerringerX-2 come September!
I suppose this could fit in the What's Bugging thread as well. Nah, not really.
Congrats, Berringer!
Got back from LA the a couple days ago, I was down there to see my family. It was really pleasant. I'm always surprised that, despite the fact that they don't neccessarily understand the way I live my life, they don't judge me and are even interested in what I'm doing. Having not been raised around much extended family it's always different to be around people that just want to sit there and hang out with family literally all day (from, like, 12-10 one day). It's seems like a simple but warm kind of life.
My wife and I have finally moved in to our new place last week and really enjoying that freedom again! Work is a bit stressful, I am actually getting pretty tired of always having to constantly raise the bar, what ever happened to just settling for average every now and then??
Only 8 hours in a workday, just need to suck it up.
My work is boring as shit right now and I'll be unemployed in two weeks but other than that Life is Good. I just finished the Assassin's part of the Farseer Trilogy and am now on the Liveship trilogy but it's kind of hard to start a new series.
Ha, someone at work lent me that near-furry Farseer shit. What's your excuse for reading it? And coming back for more?
They're hardly near Furry. The first trilogy was awesome.
My parents and siblings spoiled my ass this year! Art books, a couple of games, and a nice and shiny lightbox for drawing on!
Got a half hour left to work and then it's off to the bar for cheap ass shitty beer!
This could go in either thread, but I'm going to look on the bright side. I've got a week before school starts, so I'm just farting around home for the time being. I only have one four-hour shift, which sucks because I'm broke, and at times I become extremely bored. But things could be worse. Way worse. I've started some projects just for shits and giggles, and plan on doing some internship research. Hopefully, I'll get drunk sometime over the next five days.
Tell her not to drink his kool-aid.Quote:
