    I know absolutely nothing about this situation beyond what was mentioned in chat. Do they happen to call him pacman because he has a problem with pills?

    If hes the guy I'm thinking of him and his "possee" have been involved with multiple shootings at strip clubs, also a couple assaults. He didn't neccessarily do any of the shooting but the people he was with did and for most people thats enough to get locked up not a year vacation from playing the foosball.

    The shit of it is that he's good. And, had (still has) tons of potential. The guy just can't seem to distance himself from tha thug lyfe.

    I remember the one story where he bought a garbage bag full of cash to a strip club cuz he liked to throw wads of cash at the strippers. But he wanted it just for show and got in a fight with the bouncers when they got mad he was taking money back.

    That's the problem with professional athletes, these guys get told how to play, but not how to live. It's sad when a multimillionare goes broke because he outspent his paycheck (well not to sad but still you could see where the issues started).

    On the same point, I don't see why the media/public is so surprised when you take disenfranchised, more-often-than-not poor, semi-educated 22-year-olds and make them multi-millionaires overnight.

    Well of course, look at the stat that half of lottery winners are bankrupt within a year. Giving someone a lot of money suddenly doesn't make them able to handle it better. The sad thing is the system makes more money exploiting these guys then it does helping them (college coaches churn and burn them through anything for a win, nfl same thing, the media will build them up just for the bigger story of tearing them down).

    Oh my god this episode of House is brilliant.

    Season 2, ep 12.
    It has a teenage supermodel who slept with her father. It turns out that she's actually a hermaphrodite.

    Father (After hearing the news) : What, no, this must be a joke.
    House: No no no no, a joke would be me calling you a homo. Canya see the difference there?

    Yeah, it's true. I merged my school e-mail with my Gmail account, have all kinds of crazy labels and filters set up, I used Google Calendar, and I made that spreadsheet for the pushup thing, because Google Docs rule.

    Firefox 3 refused to download the Spore Creature Creator because of my Internet Explorer security settings were all set to the highest possible. I got Firefox because it was safer. I turned all the settings up because I someone told me it would be safer and because I wouldn't be using it anyway.

    And now I'm forced to rethink this!

    Too bad I can find essentially no enjoyment in that game as I see serious hotties going in those joints.

    On the other hand, Sunday is Settlers of Catan night at a nearby coffee shop.

    I don't find that episode enjoyable anymore ever since I had a friend of a friend have a flashback to her own sexual abuse at the hands of her father during the watching of that episode. One minute "Oh you snark bastard, you..." the next uncontrollable sobbing.

    It's pretty damn random over all, but I've added enough extra expansion junk (Seafarers, Cities and Knights, the German Das Buch expansion set, the occasional Fisheries of Catan, and a few house rules) that it's still damn fun.

    Basic Settlers always comes down to (for me) a person pursuing the proper strategy (maximize ore, sheep, wheat, buy lots of cards) and winning. Or getting unlucky. Whichever.

    Man, I kind of understand where he's coming from. If a woman were saying the same thing, I would understand that, too (and I say this as a fat guy).

    You marry someone who you're compatible with; when they change significantly, sometimes you become less compatible. I'm not saying it's not assholish, but people are assholes.

    Well the issue I had is, its one thing to say "My wife gained some weight and its putting some strain" its another thing to directly mention "I'm not one to stray".

    If he doesn't love her anymore its not straying it's divorce time, I hate the idea of loving someone so much you'll fuck other people just so you can stay in that nice safe relationship.

    Yes, but he specifically said he would not stray from his marriage instead of, let's say, the exact person he first married. Marriage is about change and compromise and whatnot. You can't expect your wife to stay the same forever. And if things don't work out, jump ship before screwing around with others.
