Skullcandys? Bleh... Might as well have just stuck with the earbuds...

From ear buds to Sony Mdr V-150s. Was like putting on a fresh diaper.

I love that analogy so much.

Anyone ever been to Cedar Point Ohio (roller coasters in Sandusky)? I went recently for a full 12 hour day there and road everything. Very impressed by all of it. Feel like I need to recommend everyone to make a trip there if its viable.

Usually its fun weed studies. Like the one that says high drivers perform equally and sometimes better then sober ones. But in this case it was a study on MDMA. More or less the researchers came to the conclusion that its pretty safe and should be sold like alcohol. Touchee Canada.....Touchee

So I recently donated some custom music to Pass The Controller Please, which is a live-stream with the goal of raising money to help Child's Play and other charities.

Click here: you know you want to!

It runs from 5-7PM (NewGrounds time) on Fridays; it would be awesome if you get a chance to check it out since it's for a good cause!

I will now get off my soapbox and go back to standing in the corner.

I've been back in the US for 4 days and I'm still horribly jet-lagged. My internal clock is still a full 12 hours off, so even though I'm posting this at 2:26 PM it feels like 2:26 AM. It's weird to think about.

Never had jet-lag, but I've been to high-school!

Does it count...?

I can sympathize with that, my dad, since the beginning, was never there.
But all more the reason to be your own man.

Not really. I've grown pretty used to cats and their behaviour.

the Mogwai set must have been pretty hectic. punk audiences are even more aggressive than heavy metal, so i've heard.

Yeah, they are. I mean, hardcore punk is where moshing and two stepping are from, so it's expected. They used to have magazines with two stepping moves in them, haha!

The windows TEMP directory and web browser cache are TWO of the biggest contributors towards "bloatware". "Clearing the browser cache and deleting the C:\WINDOWS\temp tohugh, usually are not sufficient to completely clean excess and useless files.

I usually use "Ccleaner" from piriform.com. There are a lot of similiar deep cleaner availalbe, but that one is free and doens't require any silly "activation shareware crap". If you decide to give it a try, shoot me a PM or chat on Skype and I can go through some of the more advanced settings with you. (It's usually wise to declick / deactivate all the "registry cleaning" options).

Oh my, heal me

I'm oddly depressed. I've been up and down lately, but... I just don't fucking know. The last few weeks while I was in my hometown, I've been just wasting my town. I'm leaving to my Dad soon, but man...

Help me, lol. I don't know what's wrong.

Well I wasn't in the middle of the crowd so I coudln't really say, but I mean Mogwai aren't exactly punk >> The craziest it got was the end of Ratts of the Capital and Mogwai Fear Satan (Which was fucking amazing)

I also at the end of Ratts of The Capital they brought out a second bass to play the end riff, along with 2 guitarists already, crazy

Yup, theres a fair number between ghost pepper and the habenero though they are mostly the result of botanists or scientists messing around with genes / mating habits of plants.

it's purported to be hotter even than the habenero.

Yea its like 50x hotter or some nonsense. Wiki has a nice little list/chart of capsaicin content / scoville read outs per peppers.

i had some Ghost pepper cheese today and it really isn't so bad.

Might just be a gimmick cheese with some other spice in it, or alternatively, theres no measure of how much of what peppers are in there. Also cheeses get heated typically so some of the hotness prob was drained off in whey, and cooked off in heat. Further so... dairies fatty content help neutralize hotness.

i think my Scoville endurance is getting better.

Scoville is a hotness measure, capsaicin is what you're 'enduring'. Debateably numbing yourself too. I never really understood if the body gets better at dealing with it, or it burns itself and cant perceive it as well, or if becoming less sensitive to it really can qualify as some form of betterment... Anywho, say you ate a bunch of peppercorns, its a different type of chemical thats hot, and while it measure on scoville, if you're use to one chemical, peppercorns may be surprisingly hot.

also was able to tolerate a fresh, baked jalapeno with ease.

Hotness factor is in the seeds mostly, and once again cooking hot stuff breaks down the active chemicals. You can cook a habanero (or any pepper) to the point of being bell pepper hot.

Mmm hot stuff. Its like a challenge you can eat.
