I have an idea lets make cars more aware of us by blocking their ability to drive down the road at their normal speeds.
Brilliant!
You know, I understand a lot of car drivers are assholes. They piss me off, too.
But there's a slight difference between encountering some random asshole in isolation, and getting a bunch of your buddies together with the express purpose of being a big group of assholes.

every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

WOOT! I think i might have found a hotel room for PAX! Just have to confirm it with some fellows tonight then i'll book it. YEAH!!
Fantastic Pman. You'll have to give me a ring while you're up here, if you come up here.
Yeah, we'll be up there for sure. PAX is our only big vacation we all take and all look forward to. I'm hoping to persuade my buds to head up a day early and stay a day late so there's more time to cram everything in, but we'll see.

I also like accupuncture, because even if it fails, at least they stuck you full of needles.
Some folks seem to enjoy acupuncture, but I never got the point.
Well my dad used to go all the time, it was basically relaxation therapy where they stick needles into you and shock you up. Kind of like reverse hypochondria, you feel better because they tell you, you should.

The thing with CM is they don't just ride down the middle of the road, forcing traffic to go at their speed, as is their legal fucking right but they block intersections, run red lights in big groups, harass people as they go and generally behave like total fuckwits.
I don't even own a car and I hate em.
Edit: The big problem with Critical Mass Seattle is that they consistently and deliberately use illegal methods to get their "message" out. They illegally block intersections, often causing accidents in the process, and generally give all cyclists a bad name.
They also fuck with pedestrians just as much as they do with motorists.

This year I'm not doing the full convention but if you want to go to dinner or something I could pick you up or whatever. Definately want to attend for at least one day.

That sucks, man. Are there other option for you? I know stuff's tight right now, at least in a lot of the country (although Than and Dyna keep suggesting I move to their necks of the woods).
I'm in a sort of ambivalent place with my work right now. I'm getting a raise and a promotion, but to do something I've never done before, and I really like my current job, but I don't feel comfortable turning down potential opportunities just yet.

If it still hurts bad after a couple more days, gooooo
my insurance coverage ends for a month after Wednesday. I'm not too worried. I've had back injuries of this level before and it just took rest, stretching and the occasional hot soak to get better. Maybe I should buy a heating pad though...
The vast majority of back injuries go away in a week or two. Usually, right about when you start saying "okay, I'm tired of this, I'm going to a chiropractor" is when it starts getting better on its own.

Sounds good! I can't wait for this fucking thing. i believe i'll be quitting my job right before it so that should be awesome too. Hopefully i have a new job lined up though so i dont' have to worry about drug tests!
It'll be odd in thirty years to explain what Napster was to young people while they're getting music beamed directly to the microchips in their brains.
Of course, that is assuming that they'll listen to me. I might have to start brandishing a knife.

Well, presumably any true Hipsters will have Apple iBrainchips. So just use their inevitable Bluetooth v27 vulnerabilities to forcibly beam the information about Napster directly into their brains.
I applied for my CAQ a month ago, and they send me a letter today saying oops apparently 3 separate pieces of information didn't arrive. Even though we sent them in the same fucking envelope with the rest of my stuff. Graaargh. So now I need to send them again. Lovely. This had better not slow me down, I still need a study permit.

I think most of my hang-ups about it stem from the fact that the only acupuncturists I ever met was a real prick.

I think you just like using the word brandish.
It is an awesome word though. I want to go brandish something now.

Is this version James Hetfield laments his millions of dollars, Napster and colostomy bag.
Damn right.
Ugh, this is so annoying. There is a guy in my (very small) office who rides with those fuckwits and was all up in arms defending them this morning.
Really had to hold back and still I think he's pissed at me.

the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
Basically, it's the application of disaster capitalism on the microlevel.

Self-righteous assholes, which is even worse.
Dear Mr. Bates,
You are a life-saver.

Then we got a new boss.
Now my days are filled with sorrow and rage.

Seriously, that barometer has yet to go wrong for me across like a couple years and god knows how many threads.

That sucks, man. Are there other option for you? I know stuff's tight right now, at least in a lot of the country (although Than and Dyna keep suggesting I move to their necks of the woods).

I'm never going to a chiropractor.
it fits my schedule and I probably can't get a jerb as a waiter with a month's experience.
-Napster, bad! Money, jive!
