  1. i went to a bbq one time and in the basement, they'd modified an old video arcade game and put a hard drive in it, hooked up a monitor, so you could play all the old classics on it, donkeykong, pacman and miss pacamn, all that shit

  2. after some of the total crap i just saw a few posts above, those fast food tats are amazing.

     

    Fist a lot of the east coast doesn't have Carl's Jr. so i'd guess it's a proximity issue.

    fat ralphy, the road was a great book. haven't brought myself to watch the movie

    cormac mccarthy is an amazing author.

    kinda wish i had not read Blood Meridian though. shook me to my core, and i still think about it.

     

     

    right now i'm reading this:

    after i'd read this guy's book on scientology and really enjoyed it.

  4. i pulled out all of my NES stuff about a year ago, played it for about a week and put it all back

    i must be getting old but i think i prefer a solitaire app.

    i see people waiting in line for shoes every so often at the spot by my house. :confused:

  5. america decided that since we had everything and it was convenient, we could sit on our asses and not learn anymore

    then when people tried to make the playing field more level, most people would just whine 'socialism sucks.'

     

    it never fails to be a reminder of how fucking uneducated and behind we are when i try to explain to people what my job is.. and they don't even know what literally the most basic starting point of it means.

    sticking to being vegetarian is NEVER hard, because i simply will not eat meat

    cannot do it

    i was telling my dad the other day, i honestly don't know if i would eat it or starve to death if those were my only options.

     

    sticking to being vegan, very challenging.

    mainly bc inquiring about ingredients in foreign languages is futile and only makes me look dumb and those people laugh at me haha

    it has made me go into a Subway or two.

     

    i've mentioned on here before, every country in the world eats fried potatoes in some form

    so i always eat fries

    and juice is another important staple

    thank goodness i can eat bread, bc that also seems to be popular the world over

     

    i'm a big fan of going to the local market, picking up bread, fruit and juice, and feasting on that

    i don't think it's a nightmare, bc i don't have my weeds usually, so i don't have the huge appetite i do at home.

    people probably think it's dumb, and i'm missing out on so much, but i don't care.

     

    i also do tons of research before a trip, and usually have picked out a veggie restaurant or two.

    i loved loved LOVED Lord of the Fries in Melbourne. i gotta go back there.

  7. this list is so goddamn spot on, i'ma post it in here too (also in Dear___ thread)

    i think i like the last 3 the most

     

    guidelines for living from the Dalai Lama

     

    Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.

    When you lose, don’t lose the lesson.

    Follow the three Rs:

    Respect for self

    Respect for others

    Responsibility for all your actions.

    Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.

    Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.

    Don’t let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

    When you realize you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

    Spend some time alone every day.

    Open your arms to change, but don’t let go of your values.

    Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.

    Live a good, honourable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll be able to enjoy it a second time.

    A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.

    In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don’t bring up the past.

    Share your knowledge. It’s a way to achieve immortality.

    Be gentle with the earth.

    Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before.

    Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.

    Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

  8. TDB,

    thanks homegirl

    sm

     

    yea, maybe in a few years you'll have more freedom

    i love oyur attitude though

    one of the Dalai Lama's 18 rules for living:

     

    Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before.

     

    great advice bc indeed SM, i've noticed that when i return home from a place, things are pretty much as i left them, but my mind is a little more open, my experience more rich, my knowledge of self more developed. it's my greatest education. i don't think a person has to go around the world for that either.

    and in the spirit of not having tons of stuff, and listening to the dalai lama

    wow, [kids are] really a major issue for many people

    not surprising, this is probably the biggest life decision a person can make.

    i have lots of reasons why i didn't do it and i'll never rule out adoption but i'm not interested at all right now or prolly ever, especially cuz i think some bad shit is coming this planet's way.

    (and might as well see as much of it as i can while i can)

    i really want to do some more $$$ trips though too.. still can't safari, for example.

     

     

    protestor, living where i do helps a lot. i have my own home and having travelled, major perspective on how lucky i am in the broad sense.

    it is a humble home in a sketchy hood though.

     

    i read the other day that 'millenials' are ditching ownership in favor of experience.

    maybe i'm just one of the few people from my generation (x) to make that choice, i definitely do not have many things and i'm not interested in owning lots of stuff.

     

    it's friday.

    yay
