Eminem IS a good rapper.
and I'm excited to see his new movie.
Anyways, what really gets me is this..
There were all these announcements "Justin Timberlake is performing SOLO for the first time ever!!"
And I'm thinking, well actually I didn't care at all, but I thought he would actually be performing solo.
So when it comes time for that Grande Solo Performance, 30+ people -- dancers, guitarists, drummers, rappers, singers-- join the stage with Justin. ugh, what the hell

You're labeling sensor plugs before removing the wiring harness from engine "A" to adapt it to engine "B."
Mr. Y: "What is this?"
Mr. Z: "Fuck if I know."
Mr. Y labels it "CHIMP."
Mr. Z: "Does that say 'CHIMP?'"
Mr. Y: "Yes."
Mr. Z: "'CHIMP?'"
Mr. Y: "Yep."
Mr. Z: "?"
Mr. Y: "Well, that was about the gayest thing I could think of just then."
Mr. Z: "..."
Mr. Y: "What?"
Mr. Z: "Well, chimps are pretty gay."
Both agree that "CHIMP" is what it should be labeled.
Mr. Z: "Gonna label the next one 'BUBBLES?'"
Mr. Y: " Yep."
Mr. Z: "Maybe we should call it a night..."
Mr. Y: "'CHIMP.'"
Mr. Z: "..."
Mr. Y: "'CHIMP.'"
Man, that was a late night. To top it off, the labels we used didn't stick very well. Most of them fell off over night and I ended up using the shop manual to figure out what they were by wire color.
Okay this will be the last post I direct at you. I will not respond to your weak attempts at insults, I just wish to clarify one thing:
What I meant by "If you actually want to catch an ass-kicking, just keep up the same line of bullshit rhetorical banter if we ever meet again face-to-face." Fairly simple. In the real world, not on the internet, when you insult somebody in that manner to their face, they won't put up with it. Instead of getting in to a little war of words, they'll simply kick the shit out of you. Or attempt to do so. I know this from first hand experience.
Hiding behind the internet has become a popular thing to do. Its very similar to a small dog, say, a Chihuahua, barking and growling at someone from behind an eight foot chain-link fence. There is security provided by the board, and as James points out "what happens on the board, stays on the board." That's fine, people can then say whatever they feel without the dangers that exist in the outside world.
Know this: I do not simply bark on the board. If you ask anyone who knows me, they'll agree I say what I want, when I want, to whomever I want. I don't care. It's gotten me in fights and brawls before, it will again. If means a stay with room and board on the county's dime, so be it. Just ask Brad Borton as to who it was that kept us from brawling at the track that time. Wasn't me. Sure as hell wasn't him. His dad and the track officials were the only people there who kept us all out of Thurston County jail that night.
What you've said to me here would never fly if we were actually in the same room. I have a hard time believing you would ever say the things you've posted here to someone's face. I have fought with people that I consider friends over less.
So, basically, bark and yip all you want. If you ever want to step around the fence and try to back it up, just give me a call. I'll be more than happy to critique your debate style with a foot and a half of maple and steel.

Okay......I never said anything about speed......but there is a huge difference between driving "safely" and driving precisely.
Driving in a manner that most consider to be "safe" is not necessarily better than driving precisely. If someone has physical control over their vehicle, and knows how to make it do what they want, then they will know the limits of safety while driving. However most people who drive "safely" are the biggest dangers on the road.
It grows more and more clear that you really don't know shit about actual driving, so I'm not going to bother arguing this with you anymore. I'm sure you can get in a car and go from point "A" to point "B" effectively, however I have no doubt that the nuances of the art remain unknown to you.
Either way, I'm done. It's a waste of time to continue debating this with you.
Yeah.
You obviously don't understand that I was trying to fuck with you when I made those "threats" you refer to, as well as the colorful insults. As the old saying goes, just trying to "get your goat." (That isn't meant in any manner that involves Velcro gloves and kneepads, it's just an expression.)
The fact that you thought I would actually show up proves how damn stupid you are. You aren't worth the time.
If you actually want to catch an ass-kicking, just keep up the same line of bullshit rhetorical banter if we ever meet again face-to-face. Aside from that.....whatever.
One thing...you are very quick to bring out the personal insults? Why is this? Are you so insecure that the only way you can feel good about yourself is by finding small things to point out in people? What the hell is your problem? I don't know you. You don't know me. As of now, it's going to stay that way. I really don't want to.
If your only purpose in coming to this board is to start shit and stir up a hornet's nest, you've certainly succeeded. Either grow up and knock it the hell off or quit wasting out time. You may notice, we quite often have discussions between ourselves. These discussions often could be taken as a little insulting.....but yet we're all still on good terms with one another because we don't take serious jabs. It's all meant in good fun.
I never wanted to make this personal, as I enjoy a good debate, but you ruined it by bringing in intensely personal insults. I'll admit, you struck a nerve, and I got a little pissed about it. How about you just fucking stop now, before things get nasty?
In closing, take your half-baked, bullshit little pre-pubescent personality and shove it up your faggot ass, you worthless fucking shit-for-brains excuse for a human being. How's that for clever, bitch?

James....that System of a Down post kicked ass.
I can't help but agree with your interpretation that they want you to steal their porch lights. Or maybe they just want you to replace them with a lower wattage light bulb? Maybe trade the ones they have for some 40 watt or something.
Get your facts straight, junior. I do not live with my parents. I rent a house from them. I don't know where you get this "pillar of success" shit, but I have never claimed to be anything along those lines, nor have I ever supported any such claim.
Mistakes don't always characterize the existence of flaws. I recall having said "fuckups happen." If you're trying to say you've never made a mistake in the areas you consider yourself to be strong in, then you are lying through your teeth. Plain and simple.
You really need to quit bringing up incidents about which you know nothing. You were not there, nor have I ever explained the circumstances of my accident to you or anyone you associate with.
Quit bringing it up.
Now you want to go back to driving again. How many miles do you drive in an average week? Or, more to the point, how many miles in the past year? Hell, why not in your entire driving career? Do you know any of those numbers?
"I question why you think your job is so extravagant"
Hmm....I make 20 bucks an hour fixing shit. I have excellent benefits. But "extravagant?" No. I may have said it's a good job, which it is, or used the term "gravy" to imply it's smooth and easy, but I don't know where you get extravagant from.
Finally, there is a major line between actions and words. You don't know what my actions are or have been, only what I get on here and post. Go fuck yourself.

It wasn't directed at James. But when he jumped in, well, I had to respond.
You need to make the distinction between flaws and mistakes. Sometimes fuckups happen. There are also such things as bad choices, which would also fall under the heading of mistakes.
Now, I never responded to your first comment about my pedestrian incident, because I felt it wasn't needed. But you brought it up again. Two things:
1: If you've never had a wreck of some kind, or a ticket, or whatever, then you don't drive much.
2: If you want to bring up driving skill, shut the fuck up right now. I'll out-drive you any day. If you don't think so, bring your best. I will beat it.
Just for the record, we all think it's pretty damn funny when you try to insult Steven. It's stupid when you try to insult me. Maybe you should give it up, before something bad happens to you.
In short, suck a dick, you whiny little fuck.

Not too pull away from this fabulous debate about the powers of paper and proof of it...
but yesterday, as i was walking on my way to Bell town, passing a spirally looking statue/art-work thing, i noticed a man...
"a man you say?"
a man i say...
and what was so special about this man? Well.... i'll tell you my friends...
this man that i saw... well he decided to take down his pants, exposing his ass... and squat down, right next to this here statue...
and to make things more interesting... there was a group of people all over the place, and no one paid him any heed... as if to explain, "oh worry not young man... this is our normal behavior..."
now--i couldn't honestly tell you what this man was doing pulling down his pants and squating by that spirally statue thing that sits in belltown (i'm guessing the seedier part of belltown--of the "outskirts" of belltown), but i imagine that i won't really be walking that path again at night...
...
WHO THE HELL TAKES A DUMP IN THE MIDDLE OF PUBLIC NEXT TO A SPIRALLY STATUE THING?!
okay.

No, It does hold water.
Like you said, there are many idiots out there with diplomas...so what's your excuse for not having one? You couldn't even play their stupid little game well enough to graduate? You can't even prove that you could meet the pathetic standards of the state? You couldn't take it seriously enough?
I'm not saying that having a high school diploma is a big thing. As you pointed out, it's not. What I am saying is that someone who can't even get one must be a real moron. I know that's not always the case, but you'd have a hard time proving otherwise.
More what I was pointing out is that people who didn't or couldn't graduate from high school, for whatever reason, have no business talking shit about others....
It isn't that you need that piece of paper for yourself....IT'S TO PROVE THAT KNOWLEDGE TO OTHER PEOPLE!!!!!!! Right now you have no way of doing so that "holds any water."
Or will you happily retire from that box factory in 40 years?

Jump
Bounce
Down
Up
I went out on a date,
With a girl, a bit late,
She had so many friends,
Gliding through many hands.
I brought my pogo stick,
Just to show her a trick,
She had so many friends,
Gliding through many hands.
Unannounced twister games,
All players with no names,
They lined up double quick,
But just one pogo stick,
Everyone gets to play,
Runaway, expose',
It was so exotic,
But just one pogo stick.
Jump Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
Bounce Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
Down Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
Up Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
Oh, I like to spread you out,
Touching whoever's behind
Jump Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
Bounce Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
Down Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
Up Pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo, pogo
sorry, had to be done.

Hahaha - a good laugh, but none the less the statement : " Either way, lets see a show of hands from all of those present who managed to graduate from high school after only ONE senior year: " holds no water what-so-ever ( or so, in my eyes ).
I would just like to remind all of you how many dumb motherfuckers out there who work at burger-king and some other shit-end-job who go to community college just as if it were " higher school " who do have diplomas and did graduate high-school. These are the people I despise, and a reason I can argue against the credibility of a diploma, or - more specifically - a BETHEL HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. There are people who dont know who Freud is. What a Freudian slip is. Who Karl Marx is. Who mistake INDIA FOR A GOD DAMNED CONTINENT and AFRICA FOR A COUNTRY. People who do not know basic math skills, have diplomas. People who can barely spell - people who can barely read - and people who can barely speak a coherant sentence without using words such as " fuck " " ass " or " shit ". These people all have diplomas.
Personally - these are reasons why I am proud to state that I am a non-grad.
and proud to realise that I do not need a piece of paper to know that I have knowledge worth of value.
As Bart Simpson stated on t-shirts which were banned from school :
Underachiever, and proud of it.

jEFF...man isn't that iMac sweet? I'm still not sure when I'll be getting mine...I just can't justify spending that kind of money when I already have two perfectly good computers....actually, two very good computers.
Plus.....two grand is wheels, tires and shocks for my truck...all badly needed due to the lack of performance-minded engineering in street trucks.....
I'd have Jaguar already, if Apple weren't being shit heads about it. They wouldn't release it to anyone before 10:20 Friday night...not even the Apple engineer I talked to Friday afternoon. Today, 10.2 server arrived...10.2 workstation can't be too far behind. I'll keep you updated on whether or not it's all they say it is.

One word:
Turoc.
I loved them both.
Mario 64 was mind-blowing. Maybe that was more because of the substances I may or may not have been taking at the time.....
And Goldeneye. That had to be the best N64 game.
"Original Techno Composition"....now if that isn't bordering on a contradiction, I don't know what is. Not that I don't like techno, I do. It's just that....well....I spent a lot of years doing nothing but learning and playing music, so I guess I'm still a purist at heart. Of course, I've forgotten 90% of what I once knew about music. Maybe closer to 95%.
Jesse - man, I thought I knew you....evidently not.
Either way, lets see a show of hands from all of those present who managed to graduate from high school after only ONE senior year:
yeah.
didn't think so.

I would contest - still, that SNES was a SHITTY console - I hated it, I vaguely remember any game that was worth multiplayer-experience. Almost every game for that system that people harold " saving " it are single player RPGish Final Fantasy Chrono Trigger games. And as for the N64 - I would say that the only game released to " almost but not quite " save that console was TETRIS - with up to four players all playing at the same time and the prolifieration of N64 controlers you were always capable to have a good time with that game.
And another thing I've been thinking about thats been getting on my nerves lately is how they dont have " small toys " anymore - things that you can collect and play with. Two things I've been looking for are these small " muscle men " that were called : M.U.S.C.L.E. and there were tons of them - some flesh colored others neon colored - and they didnt move they were just like small hard-plastic figurines that looked real mean and you could make them fight and use your imagination and could have like five or six of them in your pocket. They were my savior during long road trips - all you needed was a handfull of them and you could make so many stories and so on and so forth. Anywho - needless to say - there arent any of them that I can find, asides from eBAY where they'll cost an arm and a leg ( I want to get like a couple hundred of them ) - and another thing that I cannot find are the small Z-BOTS - which were kind of like the muscle men but these could move and they were odd colored and robots and they were basically the same thing but smaller.
Now-a-days the only things I can find are like miniature poke-mon figurines which dont look as cool and are always " posed " in positions that you cant really do anything with. And they're all anime-inspired so when you buy a SMALL figure you get like 97% eyes, 2% torso and 1% arms+legs. WHAT THE FUCK I WANTED A FIGURINE NOT A LARGE PAIR OF EYES WITH ARMS AND LEGS AND A BODY HANGING OFF OF IT.
So FUCK YOU BANDAI.
