Well, to be fair that's the magazine's doing, not hers. They all do that sh*t, even to normal models and not celebrities. Apparently only "perfect" women can sell magazines. It's ridiculous, because I would love it if I look that good when I'm 45.

Oh god, that was hilarious Fishy :D

I've been planing to take my girlfriend to a spa some weekend, but the problem is that I'm cheap as @#%^.


This.

Yeah there are some good deals now and then, but it'd still be pretty expensive. I also want to go on a ship to sweden, taxfree booze there! On the boat I mean.

Well, yeah. You've got a point there.
We're going to a blues festival this weekend though, with VIP tickets even. Which her dad gave to us.

I come from a below middle class family and I've lived with mom my whole life (well, untill I moved out anyways), and when her dad gave us the tickets, I was pretty much just thinking ''what the @#%^, I'm not used to this sort of sh*t''

I don't consider myself a beer connoisseur - I usually stick to one that I like. Right now its Sam Adams. Honestly, I don't know how SA stacks up in the eyes of beer critics, but it's a beer that I would go out of my way for. Luckily, it's available at the local supermarket just a few blocks away.

Other than that, for the most part people here seem to like beers like Corona, Coors, etc. For a guy who grew up (my college days) on Rolling Rock, I'm pretty satisfied with my Sam Adams.

A long time ago, when Heineken was the best beer available here, a good friend of mine used to say that after a six of Heineken even Bud tasted good. That was back when Coors refused to sell its beer east of the Rockies and as a result held near mythic status here in New York.

Anyway, that's about all I got when it comes to beer.

If only, no some sort of Tibetan thing.

Sam Adams Boston Lager is pretty much a gateway beer, SA in general seems to make nice beers that are better than any of the macro lagers by far but don't quite measure up to the better craft brews. Still, it's a beer that both bud drinkers and craft beer geeks will be able to drink together.

What state do you live in? I can probably direct you to some interesting beers worth trying from breweries nearby. Edit: I can recommend Sierra Nevada Pale Ale either way, it's more hoppy than Sam Adams is but it'll still be really accessible and refreshing.


Also, nothing wrong with enjoying a cold one on a hot day, I just prefer that cold one to be something a little more fancy than Heineken. I still won't say no to a Heineken if it's offered to me for free though.

You should feed it radioactive bugs and see if it turns into Godzilla.

Those are so cool Fishy. I wish I got them, although my cat would probably eat them.

In the past four days, I've seen both silverfish and cave crickets* in my bathroom. I'd take geckos ANY day.

*(Also known as spider crickets--they look like spiders, but they're the size of crickets and they jump like them. So pretty much my absolute WORST NIGHTMARE)

I'm glad my daughter actually likes dogs and not oversized gerbils like yours, dude. Which is a good transition to mention that I started leash training our new addition over the weekend, and there's nothing more embarrassing then jerking back on the leash of a mastodon and screaming "HEEL, KITTY!" because the bastard still doesn't answer to anything else.

Real lol

I'd get creeped out. I've seen bigger rats waiting on the R. I'd suggest Gorilla Warfare Coffee Porter.

O.K. Aethien, you got my interest piqued. I checked into a local beverage place before I read your last post and found that they have a site. I had been in there a couple of months ago and was in a rush, but noticed that they had a larger beer section than I remembered.

So, I checked in your link and found them there also.

The best part of all this is that I drive within a block of them on my way to and from work each day. I think I'll stop in on my way home tonite.

I had to look those up. Normally bugs don't really bother me. Those two, however?

LOL NOPENOPENOPENOPE.

I've decided that I want to direct the first play of the new season that starts in January, because I want to get at least a little bit of directing under my belt before I start teaching, and I figure now would be a good time to do it. I WAS going to do my favorite Shakespeare play, but it's hard doing Shakespeare in a town where there's a limited amount of guys who are involved in Shakespeare. So I did some research on other scripts, and I found a hilarious parody of Harry Potter. This girl is reading a book, then falls asleep and enters a dream where she is Sally Cotter, and is attending her first day at a wizardry school. Snape's and Draco's characters have also performed a sex change, and instead of wizard chess, they play wizard scrabble. Their rendition of quidditch is freaking hilarious too. I think this will be a lot more fun, only downside is that royalties are $75 a performance. That's way less than Grease was (royalties for it was a total of $3750 for 9 performances), but still more expensive than what we usually pay. Now I just have to wait for the next board meeting to present this idea and see if it gets approved.

This is the stuff happiness is made of.

I drink my beers too though.

I got a heatsink for my laptop today for Rs. 2,800 that actually works.

Yesterday, there were random power surges all day (and during the night as well) and witch each power surge my A/C turned itself off. When I came home after work my room was 5 degrees above normal temperature (which is still too warm).

On the plus side, my cook's family is taking me fabric shopping today. Looks like I can get my holiday dress in time for the relevant holiday, after all!

I read that as "my cock's family..."

Was a bit confused.

I have only had the Chocolate Oak Aged Yeti before, good stuff. The Oro De Calabasa will have to sit in my closet for another year or so before it's sour enough for my tastes, you're welcome to come over and share the rest though, especially if you bring some cool beers yourself.

And if I could afford it, I'd go to Finland. Or more specifically, make a round trip through all of Scandinavia.

What would you not be allowed to do on vacation in Amsterdam? Smoke weed?

Maybe you can get him some cat ears so he can kinda sorta maybe look like a mutant cat from hell?

SWTOR is boring. Well, not the game itself, but the players are so stupid, I feel like an MMO god when I play with them.

I'm doing my usual thing, stunning mobs that are going for the healer, doing last-second taunts off the tank to prevent him from dying, finishing weak mobs before strong ones, doing a quick "vanish" followed by a CC on an incoming patrol, etc. And that's every fight. It's @#%^ing multiplayer gold right there. If PvE became an eSport, I'd be a pro and I'd go to all the tournaments (and get all the ladies).

Meanwhile, my multiplayer partners are trying their best to hit three buttons in the right order without their heads exploding. I'm not even kidding. Stray mob? Tank doesn't give a sh*t. Healer is running circles around the tank in an attempt to stay alive. Eventually I popped into my tanking stance and peeled the runaway off the healer, kited it to a ledge and used a knockback to score an instant kill.

Being better than everyone else around you is sort of boring in the long run.

Roosters?

My original draft (yes, I make drafts for my posts, so what?) featured an "Amirite, Theo?" ending.
