No, not the offers in spam, stuff like other forums, free coupons, samples, etc. Anything that says at the bottom "you agree to receive promotional offers, etc.

I don't think you could sue unless you could prove some sort of financial damages. Being annoyed doesn't count, I would think.

Besides, why would you want to sue, when you can sit back and enjoy the heartwarming tale of a CEO taking a coffebreak in a warranty?

Another CEO inside a warranty takes a coffee break, and a so-called pickup truck leaves; however, a fundraiser beyond an ocean knows a roller coaster from a blithe spirit. When you see the wheelbarrow, it means that some carpet tack from a salad dressing starts reminiscing about lost glory. When the proverbial pine cone hibernates, a college-educated graduated cylinder wakes up. The freight train for a mortician has a change of heart about a satellite. Sometimes the college-educated jersey cow flies into a rage, but a wisely obsequious hole puncher always knowingly gives lectures on morality to a tomato!

Another mitochondrial particle accelerator A revered graduated cylinder
A line dancer sells the ball bearing behind the tornado to the tomato. When a green girl scout starts reminiscing about lost glory, the parking lot beyond another ball bearing starts reminiscing about lost glory. Most people believe that the scythe tries to seduce a statesmanlike senator, but they need to remember how non-chalantly another class action suit ceases to exist. A cocker spaniel of a light bulb hibernates, and a bartender from a freight train leaves; however, a tornado graduates from a lover of the cocker spaniel.

When a cosmopolitan grain of sand prays, a chestnut living with an industrial complex hides. A turkey daydreams, or the parking lot hesitantly tries to seduce another tornado living with the ocean. Another completely outer movie theater learns a hard lesson from a polar bear. A rattlesnake defined by a freight train recognizes the cab driver inside the avocado pit.

I should compile a book made up of nothing but this type of spam. I wonder how well it would sell...


So often times it happens, that we live our lives in chains, and we never even know we had the key...

Just post intellectually by granting a little thought to your opinion and I can't think of anyone who wouldn't welcome you.

----------

On a different note, my physics class fired off rockets we built a couple hours ago, and mine preformed beautifully. Unfortunately, the landing didn't go as smoothly as the takeoff, and a tree incidentally decided to become the rocket's new recovery system. It took 15 minutes of throwing sticks at it to knock it down. That was fun.

We fire them a second time tomorrow, too, so now I need to do repairs. Weeeeeeee!


So I'm basically awesome.

My film class just watched the movie Amadeus.

In discussion I brought up several points such as the completly atmospheric lighting, the father as the image of death and the outright vampirism of Saliari. But the bit that got the most laughs was when I said I liked the fart scene (if you've seen it you know what I mean) in operetic souround sound.
There's this one little mouse like (not maus like) chick in the class who compaired it to jumanji. She also compared last weeks film, my darling clementine, to back to the future three. I also got laughs for suggesting she compair nosferatu to jason takes manhatten. In short what I'm like here is very much a representation of my true self. Except in real life people don't notice all the spelling errors, makes me sound smarter.

Wow, that was easy. Did someone say "no politics in here?" earlier?

Never managed anything as exciting as building and firing a rocket, where did you get to do that?

She got burned out of politics, which seems to have happened to a LOT of the mods that were from here originally (Jos, Shrike, Funk...). Just send her a private message, and make sure to tell her you're Tal-Con or she won't have the slightest clue who you are.

If she doesn't know, she might reffer you to EveningShift. He's scary when it comes to stuff like that, if I remember correctly.

In operatic suround sound....?

I got cheated when I watched that in Music Appreciation a few semesters ago. ;-[

There's this one little mouse like (not maus like) chick in the class who compaired it to jumanji. She also compared last weeks film, my darling clementine, to back to the future three.

.... in what way did she compare those movies?

I tend to be nicer in person than I am on here. When my argumentitive side starts to show through in real life, people usually get scared and scurry away like they've just seen me turn in Mr. Hyde or something. It's kind of interesting...

Both were set in the West and apparent doc brown did something simular to Wyatt Earp. People are fucking dumb. And I just want to take a moment of appreciation to point out how badass Doc Holiday had to be for people who saw him dieing of tuberkulosis to be terrified of him.

And as for Amadeus, the teacher had special speakers installed so we could hear all the wonderful Mozart music like it deserved to be heard. Of course the child I am saw the fart scene coming and was giddy

I'm a year away from finishing college, and I already feel old - the kids around me, and I do call them kids - and in my sister's high school classes seem to have been born without the gene for self-denial. They are pleasure-gorging, bohemian hypersocialists who have fed off Hawthorne Heights and Nietzsche while at the same time wondering why they don't have any money, all the while demanding more and damning the capitalist system.

Sigh.

"These monkeys think they have it all figured out, they read Nietzsche. They discuss Nietzsche, without ever giving thought to the fact that Nietzsche... was just another fucking monkey"

What is it Nietzsche goes on about, I've never actually heard more than the name... ?

Basically wether the industrial and enlightened ages advanced humanity to the point of no longer needing the mythology of a God figure. But they use it to make moaning about being along signifigant. The fact the man himself has become an icon is fucking hilarius

They were just homemade rockets. Nothing to get too excited about. They're basically just cardboard tubes with foam heads and CD's or other cheap materials as fins, and paper clips with lots of masking tape as the rocket engine mounts, which were provided for us.

Still, firing a rocket? One that runs on rapid combustion? Best I've had is a rubber-band car. In comparison to that, it is quite exciting.

at the summer camp i work at, i used to teach "rocketry" class. we made model rockets out of packing tape (you know, that cardboardy stuff with a gooy side that you wetted to make into adhesive stuff...

either way, those things used to be dangerous as hell, despite only having A engines in them....sometimes i put B and C engines in them just for laughs...they usually went on fire

now they have full out model sets for each kid and the counselors who teach the class (and me...) run around trying to be the one to catch the rockets when they fall back down

I was at the local Food Lion this evening getting a few things, when I came across the COOLEST MAGAZINE EVA. I'm wondering if I can get a subscription...

Redneck World

There's a political cartoon in there I think everyone would appreciate; it shows one of those propped up box rabbit traps, and it has a taco for bait. The caption reads; "Bush's New Border Control Plan."

Fli is going to kick my ass when he reads that... I just know it.

Eh-- years ago I saw a play clowning on Mexicans... and guy was tossing tacos at the audiance and burritos.

And I laughed.
I even saw that Australian Lady Gladiola (or something like that) The one with the pink or blue hair... always joking on Mexicans, and I still thought he (or she when he's in role) was hilarious.

I just can't really stand it when guys are purposely assholish racist.

You know...
My sister did this with her friends, and I was like, "Mmmm.... cool."

Basically, they people whom she knew really well on the net, she gathered and each one had to send a "care package."

I mean, I don't know what else to call them. So basically, my sister and her friend from Italy sent stuff to each other, and it's just whatever. Cheapo stuff, mostly food, and cultural stuff.

She sent stuff from San Jose because my sister is Roman Catholic (not really big, just the folk kind if you know what I mean) She sent her a Guadalupe pendent. She sent Kool-aid because her friend never seen them. And she sent her our old VHS copy of Nightmare Before Christmas because her friend, being Italian, has never seen it.

Another friend from Ireland sent Irish Oatmeal and some green mittens.
My sister sent her "Little Hommies" figurines...

I dunno,
I think it would be cool to do the same thing. As long we don't spend a lot (15 bucks all together, or even less?)

Just as long it's local area stuff and stuff about you. And cheap...

I can understand that. Naomi Tutu once said that racial tensions will never be eliminated in this country until there is an honest and open discussion about racism itself. I think racial humor like that is something good for society, because it's the proverbial foot in the door to that discussion...

And will somebody please explain the humor behind this pic I just found? Because it is completely lost on me.
