  1. Howdy partners. After a lot of deliberation, wifey and I have decided that there is not much of a promising future here for us. We make okay money but buying a house here (Miami) is some bullshit. $350k gets you a shithole in Little Haiti with bars on the windows and a toilet that somehow migrated out of the bathroom and into the yard. We both have jobs here, I work in IT and she does clinical research. Miami is pretty famous for low wages, high rent, and we definitely feel it. It's no secret that we'd both make more elsewhere. We have been tossing around the idea of moving for a while but now we have made the decision to be outta here when our lease is up (end of September, but might need a little more time). We tossed around a few cities but Houston seems to have what we are looking for. I'm not a fan of the ridiculous amount of sprawl, but the fact that you can buy a house cheap, and there seems to be plenty of jobs (good paying jobs, at that, more than we'd make here fo sho) is very attractive. I have been doing some research and it seems that all of the negatives that people complain about, I'm already dealing with here. Heat and humidity... yeah, Florida. Bugs... yeah, Florida. Traffic, yeah... not only is there a lot of traffic here, you have all kinds of Mad Max shit. People stopping on the expressway because they miss their exit, making left turns from the right lane, etc. We're both pretty in the middle politically. We're both pretty socially liberal... legalize weed, pro-choice, let the homos do what they want, etc. But also, don't tax the shit out of me, don't touch my guns, etc. Live and let live I guess. It seems that this city might be a pretty good fit because it has a healthy mix of both sides, plus you know, cheap housing and a lot of good paying jobs. Also the ability to speak Spanish is something I care about, I feel if I go too long without using my Spanish I start forgetting mis palabras and I do a lot of "ehh... mmm... me ... me duele la pinga?" So what do you guys think? I know we have a few Texans here, hopefully I can trigger @Dirty_habiT by telling him I wanna move over there, buy a Prius, shop at Whole Foods and vote in socialism. Didn't DAO move to Texas too?

  2. The things you're describing is exactly why I decided to buy land. It's not a problem that those people don't want their rowdy kids in the house, but what they should be doing is teaching the kids to have a little bit of respect for elders. That means people working to pay rent there. They also need to learn how to share. When you understand sharing, you understand that your noise and rowdiness in the hall of the apartment entrances is not a good way for EVERYONE that uses it to derive a good benefit. This would be a lot for a kid to imagine and understand on their own so it's UP TO THE PARENTS to teach these things. I had to share. I had to respect elders. The other day I told the dumb ass meth dealers' kids across the street to go throw their football next to their cars after seeing them hit my neighbors car. I wasn't an asshole about it either, i didn't TELL them what to do, I suggested it. So this little sideshow bob haircut looking mother fucker got smart with me. It's crazy that kids are like that now, I would have never done that as a kid, I would have said sorry and went on about my business trying not to irritate an adult. My other "neighbor" has a "job rocker" stereo he plays in his front driveway from 5pm until bed time for him. If you're outside in our hood, you're listening to his playlist. The neighbor I shared the duplex with had a rotweiller that jumped out of their car and bit my wrist, almost severing my tendons and ruining my ability to type/do work. The other neighbor, with the stupid kids, sells dope. Pretty sure it's meth, the traffic looks like tweaker people and their tweaker cars. My other neighbor , on any holiday where you can shoot fireworks, shoots ~$1000 worth of fireworks in our street that isn't big enough to have two way traffic at the same time on because of cars parked on the street all the way up/down the road. The redneck that plays loud music a lot also sells weed and drinks like fish. His stupid friends with lesser trucks than mine do burnouts after they've been drinking in front of his driveway asthey leave..... matter of time before they lose control a little bit and cause a nice insurance claim for themselves. Some SJW's like to write in the dust on my windows because my car is blocking the sidwalk in my driveway. All of these things will be washed away when I'm out of the city. I won't have to worry about tards living directly next to me anymore or having to listen to them, or having them next to my shit with their wreckless tarded behavior.

  3. Back in the day I used to do a lot of residential moves as a contractor driving for a van line. Texas by far has some of the nicest people on earth, I used to joke with them about it because I used to say "the only reason your so down to earth is because everyone is packing heat in Texas". They would be like like "isn't everyone packing heat in Chicago?" Yeah you got me there lol Also it's the only place where the people we were moving actually helped out and on top of that we ended the day with some juicy steaks and good beer. They just get to work in that state. I just Hope the exodus from Cali doesn't ruin that old school Texas hospitality

  4. I never got into the whole social media thing. Long story short, when FB and Myspace where gaining popularity I was just getting started working in politics. When one of the older staff members and myself were having a conversation about the whole "social media movement", and its gives and takes. He pretty much told me to stay away from it at all costs for a variety of reasons, so I did and I don't regret it. 12oz is the exception for me, and that's because I like the people here I'll have been a member here for 20yrs this October (yeah I had to look that up), not that I expect anyone to give a shit but I believe that speaks volumes for the people past and present I've had conversations with on this site

  8. Any of you on Friendster back in the day? Everyone I have mentioned it to these days has no idea what I am talking about. I have not accessed any current social media for a few years. Don’t really care to delete it because never posted a bunch of selfies or personal social pictures anyways.

  12. ....... Later I will provide steps here to easily download and delete your accounts if you'd like to. Facebook: FUZZING: Do not simply "delete" your account. Before you do so, delete the comments manually, or have them overwritten w/ nonsense. The reason to do this is that it stores this data in their servers rather than your actual data. Use this Google Chrome extension to remove your content. (WARNING: do not do this if you have not first _backed up_ anything you wish to save forever). If you don't use google chrome, and don't want to use google chrome (like me), just download it on a VM (DM me if you need help w/ this) and use it to install the plugin. BACKUP: Settings -> Your FaceBook Information -> Download Your Information -> Click "View" -> Select "All of my data" -> select HTML (unless you want JSON) -> Select the quality level -> Select the data you want to keep -> Click "Create File". DISCONNECTING OAUTH LOGINS: DELETION: Instagram: FUZZING: BACKUP: DELETION: Twitter: FUZZING: BACKUP: DELETION: GMail: FUZZING: BACKUP: DELETION: Linkedin: FUZZING: This should probably be a manual process on LinkedIn. Just edit your info to include nonsense prior to deletion. Ensure you have a backup first. BACKUP: Login -> Click Settings & Privacy -> Privacy -> Click "Change" on the "Download your data" row -> Select "The Works" (or w/e options you want) -> Click "Request Archive". DELETION: Login -> Click the "Me Icon" -> Click Settings & Privacy -> Click "Account Preferences" -> Click "Account Management" -> click "Change" next to "Close account." Tell them why you're leaving (give them one last piece of data before you go) -> Click Next. Enter your account password and click Close account. CAPTCHA: Do not fill out Captcha honestly. If it says click on buses, click on trains and buses or throw one train in there. If it says motorcycles, make sure to click a bicycle or two also. You can actually be really dishonest on captchas. System that RELIES upon your honesty to teach the computer how to know what certain items are. I feel that it is our job to not train these algorithms properly.... that's LITERALLY what you're doing when you are honest on Captcha. Originally it was to prevent bots from accessing sites, but now it is used to train AI. If you notice all of the things it asks you to look at and decide upon are driving obstacles for the most part. PEOPLE PLEASE READ: Go get yourself a "fake" phone number. You will only give this number to people that are not your family and/or close friends. You can then use this number to sign up on Signal App. If you're signing up to these secure messaging apps using your real phone number then "you're doing it wrong." Gear icon in upper right corner -> Calls -> Call Forwarding -> Set to "off". This will allow you ONLY send/receive messages on Signal App. If you do not turn off call forwarding, you give your "fake" phone # to an oontzer, they call you, you miss the call, you call them back..... you have now given them your real phone number linked to your cell provider in their missed calls list. Your phone will NOT dial out as the "fake" number, you only use it to RECEIVE. Never reply to text sent to your fake number, only communicate with it through Signal App.

  13. One of my boys moved from SF to Houston about 5 years ago......he met a honey with a big ass. Maybe even a huge ass. They bought a pretty tight crib for what would be a down payment here in CA. Also we don’t see much but there have been hella ooontzers from Texas. @MarcoFromHouston @earmuffs Bloodfart - who has a bunch of user names. That’s all I can think of at the moment.

  16. @where @fat ralphy Get a bee hive they are cool and good for yours and your neighbours' gardens Before I got into graff I was right into keeping bees. I used to have to spend every second weekend at my stepfather's place in the mountains so it was something I did while up there from the age of 11- to about 14. I had 8 two level hives and used to get a quite a bit of honey. Think my mum used to get her friends to buy it and then they'd chuck it out because nobody uses that much honey. Then one day I tried to suck up a swarm of bees in a vacuum cleaner ( they were in the little shed where I'd left a comb of honey out overnight) and got stung a lot of times as I walked away after dumping them outside the hives. I was most of the way back across the paddock but the angry swarm got me. This was when we discovered I'm allergic to bee stings and I focussed on skating which lead to graff. Apiarist Babe up the page would be a total smash!

  18. Some pictures from the master piece era during the early to mid 1970's. Here are a few examples of some trains that RIFF 170 had painted during the 70's. It was hard not to be blown away by the concepts and next level work by RIFF when it rolled by.

  27. Never messed w/ asparagus until I was adult age and was therefore unaware of its properties. One night I steam some and eat that for dinner before heading to the homies. Chilling, smoking, drinking. Finally I head to his bathroom, which is NYC tight, like you have to step in against the wall to close the door behind you towel closet tight. Took a massive beer piss, don't know if I noticed anything, probably too burnt or thought his old ass bathroom was funky. Did the same thing a little while later. Finally dude goes to use the bathroom and when he comes back starts asking me in a weird tone what I had for dinner. We were always breaking each other's balls so I'm immediately like what's his angle and I'm like why? He's like just tell me what you had. Why? Did you happen to have asparagus? I'm thinking how this mf know this? Yeah.... how'd you know? BECAUSE THE WHOLE BATHROOM SMELLS LIKE ASPARAGUS PISS MF!!!
