you ever have one of those days where you visit your family for your brothers birthday, get roped into unloading your other brothers car from college, get roped into making a chicken for dinner (why....) and then place it on the wrong part of the counter because apparantly thats where the upstairs toilet drips whenever somebody flushes it?
and somebody just flushed it right after I took the damn thing out....

Man, I'd just leave. I'd just walk the fuck away.
I did, I don't live there any more....
but everytime I visit I get roped into helping out somewhere..... mostly because my other brothers are lazy shits most of the time.
My grandmother does the same thing, every time I visit she'll have some boxes to be put in the attic or something to move.
@Squirrel. holy shit! That has to be pretty terrible!
One time, a dude called the cops on me as I was drilling out his deadbolt. The cops got there, I showed them my paperwork, and the dude was expelled from the property.
I really hate my job.

knee not goof today. This might be a problem as I'm meant to be in Uni in a couple of hours. Time for the multiple painkillers, I think.
I haven't seen the regular version, but I can tell you that it's seamlessly integrated into the film and adds, no pun intended, quite a bit of depth to everything.
I haven't seen any 3d films in a while, but the commercials (not specifically for up) really turn me off.
"Wooooaah, the fire's coming right at us"
It's not gimmicky like that. It's mostly used to show the scale, add a sense of danger to the adventure scenes (danger the characters are in, not the audience), and really show off the beauty of the whole thing.

woohoo! My abstract for a methodology conference has been accepted.
So, I was going to Google this Antichrist movie with Willem Dafoe, so I typed in "antichrist" and the first fill-in-the-blank google gave me was "antichrist obama." I decided to see where this went.
So, I haven't told my friends yet, but I have made a decision to not make the move. Instead, I'm developing a more sustainable plan that will take advantage of the circumstances I'm currently in. It means tolerating shitty old Alaska for another year, but I believe my life will be all the better for it.
Man, there have been so many claims for the Antichrist. You’d think people would stop trying, like they’ve pretty much given up on trying to predict when the end of the world will occur.

Given what you were saying yesterday, this seems like the best decision for you. I know for you Alaska sucks, but you are pretty secure job-wise and financially at the moment, and it's probably too much of a risk at the moment to leave that without more extensive planning.

Man, June 6, 2006 [6/6/(0)6] was an embarassment. Everywhere, people kept on theorizing it was the end of the world for like.. a month beforehand. There was even a top of the fold headline article about it in the local paper. What the christ, people?

This is exactly what I was thinking, but damn it feels good to "hear" someone else say it.
My teammates were standing around the spawn area as the enemy players were (successfully) stealing the intel right above them.
Prof, let's share Alaskan Republertarian stories.
I was once talking a to a teacher of mine about a law that was being considered that would require pregnant women to be tested for STDs, and would you guess what this teacher said in response?

I have to be honest, STD controversy isn't something I'm very well-versed in. I'm sure it was something heartless pertaining to women sleeping around before marriage, though.
Most Alaskans I know will tell you one of two things:
The really bad ones will tell you that homosexuals are evil satan-spawn. No exaggeration.
The "nice" ones will tell you that the devil influenced a homosexuals young life in the form of rape or other serious harm and that homosexuality is the manifestion of the subsequent demon posession.
Sometimes I forget that Alaska's actually a US state. You should start a secessionist movement and then run like the fucking wind.
There is a secessionist movement. It sounds something like this:
"Even though just about everything we have is in thanks to federal money, we loathe the federal government for telling us what to do, so we wish to secede, despite the fact that we would all probably suffer a depression that would make would make the current economic crisis look like a goddamn profit boom."
Actually, our Republicans talk a lot like this too.
But you can't have Government comin' in here and Controlling the People, that ain't right, I mean, and when you get down to it, and such all that we Alaskans know what Independence and Patriotism means, do you think those big city liberals do?

Who knew that Alaska was basically frozen Texas.
I mean, who knew besides Alaskans. Who knew among people that mattered, I guess.

I had to read this sentence many times before I realized that was a typo.

Now to work out what the hell I'm going to say.
Bwahahahaha

You see, it's more like a series of tubes...
Thank you Senator Stevens.
I'll be so happy once we pass that threshold. I think that's the last one, right?
They got another one? Where?
Pftt. Doomsday prophecies never die. Look at the Jehova's Witnesses.

Yeah. Where I live, there seems to be at least one church every two square miles.
