I regret not finding this forum sooner (when I was going through AC1 in December/January) so that I could learn some techniques (shock and awe, etc) that would make all the BAMF (JoeyFogey definition), and would also make me a Bad Assassin, Murderer and ... Flap-a-doodle Freerunner! (in the Bad = Good, Bad to the Bone sense, of course)... and a BAMF in the traditional sense, too.
Fuck. I just finished a test without double-checking everything. Not because the time was up, but because I HAD TO GO TO THE FUCKING TOILET. Who the fuck sets up a 3 hour test without the possibility of going to the toilet?

Yeah this happens with my schools on almost every exam we have. It might be a cheating precaution or something, but sometimes you just gotta go at the worst times. I've done this too and paid for it. :'( (not internally!)
Finally on Spring Break !.

Seconded.
Haha. That's Tobuscus as a woman...with a hook for a hand...cocking a gun. It's from his early years on Youtube.
To me, that raises far more questions than it answers.

My argument: You should never regret anything in life.One time my best friend from college was going over all his regrets in life, making himself miserable. I didn't get it so he asked me to name one of my regrets (he was probably going to use it to illustrate a point). I must have sat there for 30 seconds trying to think of a regret - any regret. Finally he broke the silence by saying, "Oh my God. You don't have any regrets. That makes me even more depressed."
Later I realized that it was an absolute. I have no regrets because I forgive myself for my mistakes. Each decision in life is made with the information available at the time and without the benefit of foresight. As long as you gave it your best shot there's no room for regret.
Thank you, Mentor.

I put this as a favorite quotation on my facebook. Aww yeah.
I just look at it as a rational decision. If crying about my past wont help my future, I see no rational reason to do so, so i wont. However if analysing it can help me create some sort of time warp that allows me to reflact light in ways no one has ever dreamed, then im all for it.
Sorry I haven't been on in so long. Big changes coming my way.
In the middle of August I'll be giving my apartment in Chicago to my parents and I'll be moving out to Columbus, Ohio to be with my brother who as of last week will be going to The Ohio State University. I've decided to get out of my job right now because my section of the company is starting to go under (operating services, nobody dials zero anymore) and I want to get into a more progressive field. I've accepted a position within the University's business office and will be working there for a little while. My brother also has a very good chance to walk on to the football team (not a very high chance that he'll play any time soon, though). I'm super excited. It's like going back to college!
Actually, it's literally going back to college.
I plan on moving back to Chicago eventually because it's still my favorite city in the country (probably just take back my apartment after my parents are gone), but for now I'm gonna be living in Ohio at least until my brother graduates. I've been spending the past couple of weeks trying to come to a decision about what to do, so that's why I've been away for so long. Sorry guys!
Nice, FLAE. Just travel OVER me. Don't stop by to say hi.
They're called flyover states for a reason.
That said, I've wanted to get out to Chicago for a while now...
i was wondering why i weren't seeing you in a while
Never smoking Kronic again, that legal weed shit is so fucking crap it gives me the worst paranoid buzz and throws me into this shitty funk for days
There is such a thing as 'legal weed' in Australia?
You should come over here. Weed is technically illegal, but you'll never get arrested for smoking weed.
Never smoking Kronic again, that legal weed shit is so fucking crap it gives me the worst paranoid buzz and throws me into this shitty funk for days
Dude, how often do you smoke?
I've never smoked weed, although some of my friends do occasionally. It's illegal here but punishments tend to be minor.
A girl I was interested in just left my life despite me meaning well. I wrote a song about her that my entire band thinks is kick-ass. Karmic Balance.
Im from NZ, and kronic isnt legal anymore, thank god. Joey I only smoke like once a week but since it uni holidays I thought I would smoke some more with some mates. Problem is I have tests on the week back and I can barely concentrate on revision, so il just ride this buzz out and not do anymore until I get the tests done.
Yeah you're probably puffin' too often. I don't do it as much as some of you guys probably think (only a few times a year, really). What you're doing is like a fat child with a box full of cupcakes. It's delicious as f*ck, but too much and you might not be up for much later on.
(Yes, I was planning this comment just to make a fat joke)
Tried a vape once. Couldn't feel my arms and I started freaking out. But a cherry blossom tree DID look beautiful so that was pretty funny.
I'm getting really annoyed with my wireless Xbox controller. The battery pack is busted in some way. I have to hold it in place with one of my free fingers while playing, or else it slides out of its spot and disconnects. I can't play AC multiplayer because of this. Too risky. :/

I have arachnophobia. I remember my first encounter with a spider. I was like three years old, just came back from the supermarket with my family. My mom had bought some Entenmann's donuts:
.
She handed me one while she unpacked. I took the donuts. Something posses me to examine the donuts. I pick up one. In the hole in the middle, a black spider. There was lots of crying,running, it was a mess.
The second time. Well, i was in the bath tub when a spider was thrown in with me. I...i don't want to talk about it anymore.
You know what else scares me....
Long story short....
F*CK YOU FEAR!!
It's almost too much of a change. Especially since Desmond looks a lot like a bearded Adam Sandler now.
In that particular screenshot, Desmond looks completely different and I remember when his new appearance was revealed before ACR I thought, 'What? That looks nothing like him!?' I swear most of the time in-game though he still looks pretty much the same.
EDIT: See in these, there isn't that much difference. He just seems a bit... darker and more detailed...?
Granted, he does look quite different in this one too:
I passed my driving test today. So glad to get it out of the way so I now have the skill for life.
Unless you end up driving drunk.
Congratulations, though!

Haha, true! The good thing is that I won't be driving again for at least another three years as I'm not getting a car now and I'll be going to university in September. If you get six points on your license within the first two years it gets revoked but after that you are allowed twelve so it shouldn't be an issue by the time I get a car. Hopefully I won't get any though!
Thanks.
Applied to the Art Institute of Indianapolis today. I took a tour and everything. It sounds perfect for me, but it's more expensive than my former school. I'd have to take out a few loans (I'd rather not). The application fee was $50, so I hope it's gone for a good reason. >_>
WTF x1,000,000,0000
Sooooooo..... I'm currently in a dispute with the San Francisco Municipal Railway (public transit system). My older daughter goes to school in SF and she uses a fare card from a different agency (which is supposed to work on all the different transit systems in the Bay Area) which we pay for. One morning she boarded a train and paid the fare by tagging the card to the reader at the front door; the reader also displays the amount of fare paid. After she moved back and took her seat, a fare inspector gave her a ticket for "fare violation" - using a youth ticket when she is over age 18.
Naturally, the fare inspector did not look at the card reader display when she boarded the train, neither did he check the fare that was deducted by tagging the card himself and looking at the display. He just gave her a ticket - $100.00.
I can see the status of the card on the fare agency's website (since I pay for it) and it was clearly an adult card - has been since 2010 in fact. Of course, I disputed the ticket and gave Muni incontrovertible evidence that all the fares paid are full adult fares - they refused to cancel the ticket on the basis that I'm required to pay the citation first before I'm allowed to dispute it! If they should happen to decide that my dispute is valid, they will refund the fine!
Where's a flamethrower when you need one?
I know what you mean Mom.
There are tons of times when people will want someone to pay money for the most contrived and ridiculous reasons.
It happens to me all the time..
God. I hated dealing with things in San Francisco when I lived there. You're talking about TransLink, right? Or it switched to Clipper or something?
I always had worries that MUNI wouldn't be able to keep track of things on their buses for the cards. I mean, they're so antiquated that they make you hold on to that blasted piece of paper (which litters the city) and the buses are so overcrowded. I hope it gets worked out for you.
At this point it would be easier to add another tax and make MUNI free. I mean, they already get you for San Francisco City and San Francisco County Taxes making sales tax something like 11%. What's another 1% for transit?
At least when I moved over to Emeryville the Emery-go-round was free, and nice.
ARGH. Fucking TransLink. I hate that company with a fiery passion. They managed to get a contract to regulate ALL THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT in my country. And then proceeded to screw it up completely.
If it's any consolation, the British public transport system is also pretty poor. I tend to avoid using it if I can.
So, my phone stopped working today... sorta. The phone would be working perfectly if I could turn it on.
Yesterday, I noticed I had to press the power button a few times to get the phone to respond. Alternatively, I could push it really hard for a prolonged amount of time until the screen woke up. Today, I took the back off and blew it out with compressed air... the batter came out. Now that it's all put together, I can't turn it on because the power button is unresponsive.
I pay a monthly surcharge for "insurance" on the phone, so hopefully this is covered. We'll see later tonight.
EDIT: Nope. Insurance is worthless.
using a youth ticket when she is over age 18
How was he sure she is over 18? If she were buying cigarettes they'd ask to see her ID.
I'm required to pay the citation first before I'm allowed to dispute it!
That doesn't sound right. Citations issued by government officials (e.g. police) may be disputed in court before they are considered payable. I don't see why Municipal Railway would be any different. It's public transit and governed by the same laws.
I recently got a speeding ticket. My story isn't as good as your daughter's - I was guilty and paid the $132 fine. That was the first time I'd been as much as pulled over since I was 18 years old. When we moved to this new neighborhood I had a feeling this might happen until I had a chance to learn the police officers' favorite speed trap locations. Now I know: the school on the hill. The speed limit is 25 miles per hour (20 when children are present). Like most speed limits in Hawaii, this is about 10 mph slower than safe drivers prefer to travel. Ever since I got the ticket, stabgal and I drive 25 mph past the school. When going downhill that means dropping into 2nd gear and riding the brake. Yesterday a bicycle passed me.

It's always better than the alternative. Today I almost hit two old ladies on the cycling lane.
My right elbow is fucked up and it's annoying as shit. I can't load the damn thing beyond 90 degrees flexion or I will be in pain. I can't even do chinups. >.< I tried joint mobilization, but that only worked for like 10 seconds. I tried voodoo (wrap it in a rubber band, move around) and that helped more. But after some time, it's back.
So now I'm sure I have to see a doc. Only the fucking problem is I can't until monday, which fucking sucks balls. >.<
My headaches are getting worse in that "aneurysm spot" in my head, so I guess I should rant about my issue.
Holly and I have been friends again lately and we've gotten better. Except for last night. She lives with her mom and step-dad, also very close to her older brother and her step-brother. Late last night, her step-brother came by her house without an announcement. She was the only one home at the time when he came by. He rang the doorbell a few times and knocked. After her being too afraid to answer it (thinking it's a bad person?), he attempted to jiggle the doorknob to see if it was unlocked. She finally let him in and he explained he was there to borrow something. While he was there, he took a snack (he doesn't do so well for himself income-wise and he's basically her brother) and left fairly quickly. This is what she said after he left:
"Bout to bust a cap in his ass. He ate my favorite breadsticks. Stupid cock muncher dick feeler." (yes, she was being serious)
I said: "...seriously, calm the hell down."
Apparently that was the last straw. She told me I'm being an asshole and ignorant of her "legitimate fears". This is the same girl that has "panic attacks" over sushi (that's where I call bullsh*t on an attention whore).
I really hope I can get my stuff back from her before I lose my mind. She has a lot of personal things of mine from when we were dating. Still waiting on that.
Wow , all because of her step-brother eating her favorite bread sticks...
I feel very sorry for u joey. Having to deal with that.
Edit: Is this the same girl who you bought you skyrim?
I'm really only talking to her because 1. I want my sh*t back. And 2. I feel sorry for her craziness.
I can get one of those things to work out, at least.
