Pointless Announcements
for most of that post I thought you were saying it was your professor that complimented you up and down until no tomorrow.
Yeah forget that chick Liberum, sounds like HS games to me.
PA: Got my nice Tax refund, payed off our CC bill, ordered me a nice new htpc to hack on XBMC (most likely OpenElec build), and a 2 bay NAS to store all my content as well as to use as a backup. And taking the wifey out to Uchi next week.
“The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche
I don't feel well.
The CBS News just referred to Rosa Parks as "the unsung heroine of civil rights."
Really, CBS? Unsung? Rosa Parks? The same Rosa Parks about whom every child in every school is taught? The celebrated Rosa Parks who has schools and parks and freeways and who knows what-all named after her? That Rosa Parks, CBS?
This is why we can't have nice things.
To me it sounds like you've got a little haterism in your game.
Although rumor has it that Rosa Parks didn't do nothing but sit her black ass down.
How the hell is she "unsung"?
This is why we can't have nice things.
Does this sound like a real song to you?
I don't know why, but the above comments made me think of this...
Gabriel says it is pretty much exactly how he feels about all the kids around him, and his generation over all, minus the whole being a black guy part.
He isn't even into rap. But he makes me listen to this for the above reasons.
I like that guy but he scares the shit out of me.
NMI.
Do it now, dumby
Just skimmed 144 post in PA.
sheesh.
And young black people tend to think that about Rosa Parks.
Old black people have more respect. Because they knew the consequences of just sitting on the bus wasn't resting a tired ass while getting fussed at.
The real consequences were no more job, jail time, possible rough handling. Black folks from old day didn't do that no matter how tired they were. And their asses were tired.
I mean it's all equal now. I feel like the migrant Mexican workers are the new discriminated souls of USA. But as long as someone wants cheap labor, that's how it's gonna be.
Thank goodness they have laws, even for illegal immigrants. I sure as hell can't picture making a tired Mexican who just worked all day ( like Rosa Parks did) to get up and move to the back of the bus, for my ego and convince. Discrimination is a thoughtless ugly action.
Barber Shop movie, made a slight joke of it all. Some young people identify more African-American heritage with that movie, than cracking open an actual book or listening to the real history. Barber Shop was a fictional story that cracks on real historical figures, for controversy and sensationalism.
The Outkast are more spoken word and urban poetry, and only utilize a bit of melody to give the spoken word musicality. But its all blended together these days. Not exclusively rap or song. As with most top 40 music. It's all just a song these days. It's hard to decipher what's what because its all such a meld of styles.
And I like history from all cultures. Because it's everyone's history. Not just black, white, latino...etc. Countries and oceans apart, we learn from past together for a better tomorrow. Hopefully.
You're closer to my kids age than mine, sometimes I forget that. Not just you, a few of you here.
or not.
sheesh.

Did you know Rosa Parks was associated with civil rights activists before she even got on the bus and they sent her to sit on the front of the bus, knowing it would cause an uproar. Then all of the bus drivers went on strike because they were black and the entire mass transit system shut down because of this one incident.
A book I read recently differs greatly in it's account of that story, Stephen.
Yes. Good. Because that one incident meant that every other black or colored(mixed race or non-white) could sit anywhere on the bus.
It seems I remember something from my childhood black history class, when this was still fresh in the early 70's.
Ms. Parks was part of civil rights movement. I just can't remember how much before the "sit-in" incident occurred, she was involved with movement. But it was a good thing for all.
My mom sat in in Greensboro at the drug store counter. They don't list everyone, because they took shifts sitting in.
White women were more involved with civil rights because their equality movement was intertwined. It was very much like the Madmen tv series. Not all cute mid-century dresses, smoking with little guilty and skinny ties. There was misogyny and so much bias.
Well this is coming from my American History professor, who was kind of a crazy old white guy.
Oh hey! Someone got my joke! They didn't like it but they got it. That's close enough.
What made you think of that? Is because I said I was frightened of the guy wearing weird contacts? I don't care how how old you are, that's terrifying.
When Sheldon went out earlier he went further than he's ever been before and I didn't like it, didn't know where he was. It's too scary and I want to keep him in forever.
What the fuck, how the hell do you tell you would've fallen in love with me if you'd met me in high school? How? I also got a chocolate for bringing him some Spanish textbooks today, and again a bunch of compliments when I was marking our game after classes.
Never mind, figured it out.
This is why we can't have nice things.
My brain is stubborn.
It's not your brain that's stubborn. Think lower.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Considering it never got to that point with either of those guys, I don't think it has much to do with her nether regions.
I'm with Tuff on this one.
Si vis pacem, para bellum
Emotions come from the brain, too, if you meant heart and not 'the nether regions'.
So, either...
- You are emotionally invested in a guy whom you didn't even know well enough to be aware that he has a girlfriend, or
- You want(ed) to fuck him.
Sounds to me like he's still trying to position you as a bit of side-action, so if it's the latter it's not really a problem.
Correct?
This is why we can't have nice things.
Uh, they only come from the brain.
Si vis pacem, para bellum
The 'too', Lib, was about emotions. Thoughts and stuff also come from the brain.
Tuffy, it is a problem. I don't meddle when it's serious, unless I have a good excuse. I don't with him.
Well nobody ever really does anything ever unless they have a good excuse.
What does "I would have fallen in love with you" mean? What is that supposed to mean? I understand Irina's confusion here really.
"You are the sort of girl I would have gone for." or "I would have definitely had a crush of you."
Those make sense and are not particularly meaningful or more than just friendly things to say. Saying you would have fallen in love with someone, that is either extremely manipulative or he is actually in love with you. I'm guessing the manipulative answer is correct.
I asked my best guy friend and he said that's the kind of thing you say to someone you're friendzoning but who you still want to be nice to. It goes in line with his 'you know what, I really like you', that he tells me once every few days. I pretended to ignore him when he said that, though.
Maneuvering for side-action.
Guaran-God-damn-teed.
He's putting it out there and waiting for her to react.
This is why we can't have nice things.
That is weird. Other people are weird.
I would never use the word Love as applicable to that situation, if it were me.
People just throw it all around, I think humans understand nothing of themselves when I hear things like that.
My Plecostomus, who rarely swims around, sometimes goes days in one spot in the tank. I
t is swimming all over the place and has a six inch long fish turd hanging off of it.

Well good luck with any side-action, that's not gonna happen. That's the perfect example of something you say that's completely irrelevant to everything.

That's why it doesn't ever swim. Constipation! Now that it's out, he's freeeee!!
PA: Almost everything I say is aggressively tautological.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Ew you're putting me off my Wotsits =(
Fish, ugh, gross.
Coconut creme Hershey Kisses rule. Seriously. Check out the Easter candy section of the grocery store.
I have terrible indigestion and my laundry got backed up because I totally hopped on the Jodi Arias trial bandwagon and it's all I want to watch or read about.
I stayed up late into the night last Friday reading every single court document regarding her case on the Maricopa County Court archive. I've been hanging out at a gore forum talking about her case for Pete's sake (not Pete Pete, just the general Pete).
One of my co-workers is as obsessed as I am and we're feeding off of each other in a way that is probably somewhat macabre and unhealthy because we normally only talk about business matters and her upcoming wedding. It's a bizarre thing to bond over, but there we are. If we both lived near Arizona we'd probably skip work together and try to get into the courtroom as spectators.
I am such a fucking douche right now, and I have to prepare for my cousin's bridal shower on Sunday.
Coconut cream chocolate bits sounds like something I will eat a whole lot of soon.

I didn't know what a "plecostomus" was so I thought you named one of you giant fish after a dinosaur.

Oh hey! Someone got my joke! They didn't like it but they got it. That's close enough.
I like ALL you jokes!
(Except that one. Can't win 'em all.)
IKR, Jessica! I'm on it! Will be scouring the stores for coconut hershey. Wait, is that like the kiss sized one? I only eat those tiny bites. Because I'm on permanent semi-diet all the time.
Nope, he just is a dinosaur.
Their names are Big One, Little One and Plecostomus.
I asked the friend who gave them to us what their names were, what he called them, and that is what he said.
I was all, no. No. We have to name them real names, and the kids decided Rafikeo! (with a rolled R and and always said with and exclamation point inflection) was on of their names, but they always argue over which one is actually Rafikeo!
So that is as far as we have gotten name wise. We call them Big One, Little One and Plecostomus. And all three are Rafikeo!.
This is why we can't have nice things.
