What is the TOUAMB position on photo threads? Are they allowed, discouraged, what?
Could this become one?
-
... This question needs to be asked?
Oh, God, Paul, you've gone too far idle. Save us, Paul!
EDIT: Because I realized this post was totally unhelpful -- yes, photo threads are fine. The semi-mock-outrage/confusion is because, some time ago, it used to be standard for Paul (pmcd9) to post lengthy threads of photos, such that such a thread was generally considered to be synonymous with him.
-
Or you could join the Flickr TOUAMB group and direct our attention there.
-
Yeah photos are awesomeness, though for especially large ones linkage is considered more polite than inline posting, some of us still subsist on sucky internets after all.
Plus it gets the board layout all out of whack.

It has been too long. I'll see what I can do.
Although I suspect that he/she's talking about a thread where the members post a picture of themselves. I think that's a good idea. Lots of new blood here. We need to see some faces (and rude titties). Of the newbies only Muse O Fire was kind enough to provide photographic evidence. Also, the newbies would like to see a picture of the old guard I think.

Why not, I'll get the ball rolling.
Obligatory silly pose photo (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v604/Davelestoner/Selfpicture.jpg)
Obligatory "Light's too bright, too wild eyed, hair's mussed and I look hella ugly but it's the only one I've got" photo (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v604/Davelestoner/Selfpicture2.jpg)
Alright, now that I'm out the way I think we should start seeing some hot photos. Bring out, birds and blokes.

judy-- this is not how I expected you to look. Goodness.
Right now, I basically look like this except my hair is getting shaggier (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/184/383964111_57b5923e0b.jpg?v=0)
this is my main pasttime, although normally I play Electric guitar (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/160/379595395_baeb6c7d64.jpg?v=0)
I guess we're posting silly pictures? (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/127/335984178_176ea866d5.jpg?v=0) It was a dress-up party. Those are not my real glasses-- nor do I normally wear ultra-tight boyscout shirts. or wings.
-
I do not have many pictures scanned in, let alone linkably online... because I don't like having a lot of pictures of me around.
It's creepy to have me staring back at me, it's unnerving. Covering the walls with pictures of me would be a pretty solid way of torturing me into talking. Also, I do not photograph well... I am somewhat heavy but a dude photographs flat-out fat.
I will dig around, though, as everyone seems to be going quid pro quo.

Sometime, LFM, you really do sound like Roast Beef (http://www.achewood.com/comic.php?date=07212006l)

Whoa, are your titties out? Also, cutie!
It's complicated to explain, but basically: the picture was the last shot from a friend's art-class photo shoot, where we had all been running around in insane costumes all night. I am wearing a stretchy tank top (which was "one size fits all" because she wasn't sure who to expect to volunteer) and a bra, and the straps don't exactly line up. Sadly, that is the extent of the applied nudity.
-
Well, that's a hard act to follow, especially the Science, but here's me back in the simple one pug days. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/38817438@N00/136919390/)
And I like this one (http://www.rebsig.com/LL/box.jpg) of me taking a job and shoving it.
-
You know, I could link to my Flickr account, but things would go downhill quickly. You want to see it, do some research.

That's me.

You know, I could link to my Flickr account, but things would go downhill quickly. You want to see it, do some research.
If I search Flickr for people called Nabubrush it suggests I meant 'nailbrush.' Not that there is any person on Flickr called that either. Very helpful.
-
I fucked around with the search function on Flickr and I couldn't figure out a way for me to show up. If you are interested, let me know.

That ain't shit. You ever seen Sullivan's Travels? (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0034240/)

No way you're that old. But how about this one? (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0468531/)
I KNOW your name, it wasn't helping. So it's all in the initial, eh? Hmm.

Huh. Well, let me know if you need more info. I love hints.

Dog. I am looking at every single one of your public records at this moment. I tried calling you...
Oh the fuck you did. I got a minute - you want to call me feel free.
-
Oh the fuck you did. I got a minute - you want to call me feel free.
There's a message from the dude on my office machine at this very moment.
Of course, I actively try to market myself over the internet, but still...
-
August, delete that message before you even hear it. Your phone office voicemail is hell of available on the website.
(Nabu, see edit to previous post)

That's because I'm trying to get people to call me.
I'm so lonely.

Dude, I totally want to call A-Dub. He's my brother from small times.

The second most recent picture (http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/8366/flyszmy5.jpg) I got is from high school. I avoid photos cause I know about the sick shit people do with them.
-
Nabu didn't post the rest of that picture...which is probably just as well cuz he's married.
Here is a picture of me at an angle (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/376252867/) (dig the Vera Wangs) that was taken about 2 months ago.
Me and kellichou (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/408476733/) in our cribs (I'm standing up and looking at the camera, kelli's face is visible in the lower right part of the photo. Some of the childhood photos have a 2004 datestamp because my dad didn't have a scanner and instead took digital pictures of the original photos).
Me and kellichou (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/408476730/) in our parents' backyard
Me and kellichou (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/318714889/) by the airport near my house last year (in AK) (notice how much paler I am than she from the Alaska livin'.)
Here's me, kellichou, and our younger sister (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/318714880/) on a WWII bunker last year.
This is my favorite fuck*ng photo of kellichou EVER (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/219553480/)...I elbowed a bunch of nasty, grizzled giraffeermen outta the way at the buffet to snag her the biggest goddamn king crab leg ever. She's triumphantly holding it next to a beer bottle for scale. She is the rockingest twin sister anyone could ever hope to have.
Here's pictures of the little boys (they're cats, not actual human children), Milan (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/215567570/) and Lennybruce (http://www.flickr.com/photos/linnea/215567578/).
Oh, and a lot of my photos are friends-only. So there.

I'm not willing to make too much effort. I wish you bastards would just send me your phone number. I'm not particularly interested in seeing pictures of your dogs or wives or daughters.

This is me in a tie some time ago. (http://alec.desperance.net/showcase/P3020010-800x.JPG) Note pimples and youthful innocence.
This is me as a duck around the same time. (http://alec.desperance.net/showcase/RAAR-2.JPG) Note Mao-jacket-thing.
This is me and my fiancee on Halloween. (http://photos-424.ak.facebook.com/ip002/v51/237/19/23700739/n23700739_30311424_7245.jpg) She is a catgirl and I am a princess.

That is one terrifying duck mask there.
-
Fair enough. You look like a car wreck into a mud fence. Your financee is cute, though.
-
If you work at it you can find a picture of me in my underdrawers.
-
Any pictures of me not taken by family members are completely bizarre.
My brother and I went to a friend's house to give her burritos? (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bobatea/426484802/)
Disrupting museums is my hobby. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/bobatea/426480269/)
I don't have many photos on the internet (not counting Facebook) so you won't see me in my underwear, but I do have some very embarrassing pictures of me wearing a man's suit with a fake beard painted on my face. It was for a school project!
-

Yeah, my account is NIPSA too.

***** God is rocking out.
The only pics of me on 'puter at the moment are from my graduation. So here is me and my lady (http://www.flickr.com/photos/10141275@N00/438515211/) for your consideration.
-
(My fraternity uses a private research firm to run backgrounds/credit checks on all prospective/members)
Dang, A-CAP, that is SO cheating.
I used to have a lawyer friend who would access some databases for me. But she got a real job and now she's gotten all moral. Or worried about getting caught.
Nabu, I only could stay awake for a little longer but your middle initial didn't help me on Flickr. Although now I am thinking like linnea suggests, maybe it would be just as well not to see any more...

Fine... Much as I hate and despise the lens, here you go.
And only because I have a couple of recent pictures of me looking deliberately stupid!

Me looking completely insane... bunny ears included (http://www.flickr.com/photos/tsj/438646731/)

I have reached the point in Not Finding Pictures Of Myself where I am now looking for short films I've acted in, just so that y'all can have some idea... as fair is fair and all. But it is very difficult thing.
-
Well done.
*bows*
And a sigh... I still have some dye. No way am I ever dying my beard though. That is, as they say, teh lame.

This is extremely surprising. I thought all These Kids Today had their whole lives documented in digital pictures.
-
Wow, somebody took a can away from me. I'm sorry for making your eyeballs droopy and sad, touamb. I heard that vinegar works wonders, though.
-
Everybody that post a picture gets a can from me. I'd like to give doc hell of cans for having such an adorable lady friend.
-
Well, womb@, there are a couple of reasons why you misunderstood...
1.) Though I have gathered you are slightly older than me, I am far and long from being one of "The Kids These Days". I reckon that at... eight years after your high school class graduates, no one is a Kid These Days anymore. Eight years is how long it would take for one of your high school classmates to become a doctor or a lawyer if they never took any time off, right?
That seems like a decent measure and I am two years older than a decent measure. I might still be a young adult, especially by this generations' standards, but a kid... I'm long beyond kid.
2.) Even though I am six-and-a-half-feet-tall and quite broad shouldered, being somewhere around 300-310 pounds still makes me insanely self-conscious about my looks. I am not a very fat man but fat enough where I see pictures of myself and see a fat man.
3.) I live in a town where Basically Everything surrounds themselves with pictures of themselves as if they are worshipping idols of themselves. Headshots, posters, myspaces, facebooks... people living as if the footprint they leave on this Earth will be how many pictures of them shall survive their death. I am subconsciously rebelling against this.
-
1.) Though I have gathered you are slightly older than me,
Hmm, now do I feel like I'm so old that the waiter just carded me as an attempt at a flattering joke?
You're still of the age that I expect These Young Adults Today to have digital pictures of themselves. And trust me, you don't have to be a dude of gravity to hate yourself in pictures. I keep wondering if I should go back and delete one of my own links, myself.
Go on, TAKE a picture. We don't expect everyone to look like dreamy post-copulatory Nabu. That's probably not even really a picture of him.

I don't dare put up a pic either. I fear negative cans.

This is a little jpg that we took for our corporate intranet (hence the sort of awkward inclusion of the device in my hand). I'm bringing the science though, damnit!
I think I've already flashed this link before (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/155/432857930_73bacda4f1.jpg?v=0) to a pic from my Flickr. It features two of the frequent characters in my stories...
-
Dudes.
I snapped a photo of me looking crunky sitting at the kitchen table at the end of a long day and posted it in like 8 minutes. No one has set me on fire.
The bar is pretty low here and the audience receptive. Go for it.
True! I didn't even berate you for having a moustache and no beard. Only Paul is allowed to do that.
-
I am one of These Kids Today who has his whole life documented in digital pictures. Except for the really awesome bits, because I'm usually busy then. Sadly, I'm also an awful photographer, but for the purposes of this thread that's not really a problem because I find taking photos of myself a bit strange anyway.
Anyway.

I put a little of me in each post. Maybe it's to publicly shame myself for the William Shatner bj icon I used for so long.

The three pictures of me that exist on line have all been posted here previously, so it'd be silly to repost them. There already out there... in the ether man!

This is not about shame.
I don't know where the digital camera is, I don't know how to use the scanner, I don't have a webpage to put anything up on, I wouldn't know how to put anything on a website and I don't remember my ancient photobucket account or even if it is still extant.
This is how I am NOT Beef.
-
Dude, I am techno-tarded, and even I can figure out Flickr.
-
We are dealing with a two-tiered problem, here.
I can't find an easily-linked photo of myself from the past because of all the reasons I do not usually have pictures of myself taken and/or put online. I can't take one now and/or get one online because the digital camera is missing and I don't know how to find the proper driver for my scanner.
If it were just about having photos and figuring out how to use flickr, it would take a half hour of my time but I'd figure it out.
EDIT: Okay... I did find this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HLnxo2VBUE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HLnxo2VBUE)
It is a youtube clip and I am the fat guy in the Hawaiian shirt standing in the back.
That is the fattest I had ever been in my life (a year and a half ago) I am not wearing my glasses and I have an unfortunately short haircut but... that is roughly what I look like. This is your approximation.
-
See now after all that buildup I thought you'd be totally MONSTROUS but that guy is completely normal. What a disappointment.

I concur.
Also, what was your direction in this scene? (Guy in line: [look at menu and take no interest in the yelling people. When the clerk and manager realize it is a racial term, give up your quest. You are not hungry any more. Your hunger for food was actually hunger for racial tension. Your hunger has been quenched, move on.]

That's some mighty good standin' around you did there.
So are you Customer #1 or Customer #2.

"Be a dude who is trying to ignore something really weird happening in front of him by really overconcentrating on the menu. But once it gets full-on racial, you can't pretend anymore. You and your buddy are eventually so weirded out that you shrug and leave."
My friend Joey, the Latin dude next to me, was pretending that we ran a website that rates fast food burgers across the country and... that getting involved in a racial conflagration would do no good.
I was pretending that I was an undercover FBI agent and Joey was a Mexican drug lord I was attempting to get from Tijuana to New York City to testify in exchange for immunity but it was such a dangerous situation that we had to drive cross-country in a rambling fashion so as to keep people off our tracks and... like...
Ninety miles from our destination, we weren't gonna get involved and blow our covers.
I... I have a rich inner world.

Man. I am so nervous about posting pictures, but I will do it. Just remember, my body is an arbitrary costume with basically no relation to my personality.
This (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/168/439023903_6f2324117d.jpg?v=0) is me doing some math in my kitchen.
This (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/180/439023911_f1d953e405.jpg?v=0) is me posing for a picture. Warning: My hair is kind of fancy in this picture. It is never so fancy in real life.
And this (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/165/439023919_c000ef596f.jpg?v=0) is me in high school, back when I was on the goth-hippie spectrum.

-
I agree with womb@, Alt.
Even if it weren't an arbitrary costume, it would be nothing to scoff at.
-
Most of these photos are from a play I was recently in, as I do not otherwise take many photos.
This (http://www.flickr.com/photos/7572722@N04/439082105/) is me all dolled up.
This (http://www.flickr.com/photos/7572722@N04/439082135/) is a poorly disguised excuse to show off my lady friend.
This (http://www.flickr.com/photos/7572722@N04/439082119/) is me in the most apathetic Holloween costume ever, in which I wear vampire teeth and everything black I own.
This (http://www.flickr.com/photos/7572722@N04/439082137/) is me during an unfortunate bout of acne.

Nice.
I feel I should post a roughly similar photo of myself and the Gentleman Caller, (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/Eiviiaru/masquerade.jpg) despite the fact that I hate this photo all to hell.
-
if y'all want, I can post a picture of me in a dress? would that be a thing you'd want?

As a matter of fact, it would. How did you know?

edit: fixed link
-
RAVISHING.
Also, these appear to be the same photo. Is this the case?
-
I don't have any pictures of myself online, and I can't find a decent one here at work. So I give you this:
(http://www.motoca.net/motoca/3xp4/lobos.jpg)
I'm the fifth one from the left. Or at least that's part of my face.
Let me explain:
An advertising magazine once asked the studio I work at for a picture of the whole crew. And we did that collage/tribute to one of the greatest bands and one of the worst album covers of all time.
I'm sorry. It was a silly joke that got out of hand.

Tsk, cutie.
For one brief, shining moment, I thought this said, "This is me doing some meth in my kitchen."

... if you're a teen.
But yeah, it's funny how similar those words are. They are both dangerous habits. And I hear that some people indulge in both at once.
And for leaving me wondering whether you think you're cute but with a dark soul, or vice versa.
Well... I guess I think I look kind of girly and normal, and I feel more androgynous and weird. There are a few rad geeky boys in my graduate program who wouldn't say hi to me for the first few months. Like, I would say hi to them, and they would kind of glare at me and walk away. I had to greet them without reciprocation maybe ten times before they finally started saying hi back. I imagine that they were thinking, "Uh-oh, it's one of those normal girls, like the ones who wouldn't talk to us in high school. Better stay away from her!" But those normal girls were at my high school, too, and they wouldn't talk to me, either.
Also, to me I look like a mathematician, but I think that maybe sometimes I don't look like one to other people. So I'm glad that Wombat thinks I am not only cute, but science.

Here's a stunning montage I used back when I actually had stuff on my website:
[img width= height=]http://www.prolefeed.com/eric.gif[/img]
-
There's video evidence of me somewhere in a dress as a part of the "Guy-Guys" genderbending with my dormmates - and featuring my future wife in kind of a Victor/Victoria thing. Our "Belinda" was a 6'4" Native American with surprisingly little self restraint. We had water balloon titties that got popped at the end of the act. I wanted to have stage blood in them, but everyone else decided that might be a little weird.
-
I don't have any pictures of myself online, and I can't find a decent one here at work. So I give you this:
I'm the fifth one from the left. Or at least that's part of my face.
Let me explain:
An advertising magazine once asked the studio I work at for a picture of the whole crew. And we did that collage/tribute to one of the greatest bands and one of the worst album covers of all time.
I'm sorry. It was a silly joke that got out of hand.
Total sausage-fest. Of course I have yet to work somewhere with more men than women.
-
daniel, it's probably the farmer's tan and your coquettish expression that makes me love those photos in the red dress so much.
also, v, I like that photo of you and the Gentleman Caller!
Great photos, everyone. This is a highly entertaining thread.
-
I just got a new picture: here's me and my godson (http://www.flickr.com/photos/side_show/439348530/). (I'm visibly sweaty because he was furious, but I'm smiling because I'd gotten him to calm down and even sort smile for the photo.)
Also, here's the SO and our alpha cat. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/side_show/295775849/)
-
wow, you think I have a tan!? That makes me really proud.
It's certainly gone by now, though.

Stage blood in fake boobs would have been awesome. You could have told people about a large fictional breast mass biopsy that was done a while ago, then popped the water balloon and screamed about bloody cysts.

I'd like to give doc hell of cans for having such an adorable lady friend.
Thanks Paul, she was flattered to hear this. Though she is, of course, cans enough on her own.
You ladies are all lucky that this is a classy board where lewd remarks are not made whenever a lady posts an image of herself otherwise there would be hell of lewdness eminating from this fellow.

Flick her for more.
Also: I'm still going to imagine you all as your avatars done come sprung to life.
Also: I do not know what a mathematician looks like, as a general rule, but I know that they tend not to look like Alternate.
Also: Wombat, re: being carded as flattery. Oh my. That made me laugh, but then immediately the laughter turned to empathy, and then I had to lay down for a little while and listen to Neil Young.
I think I had more comments while I was going through seven friggin' pages of this thread, too, but maybe it's better I just stick to commenting on whatever I remember at the end of the thread.
These days, the less I say the better.

He killed a man in Algiers just to watch him die.

Hey Jough! Your looking pretty good, 'mano!
DO YOU FEEL GREAT?
'Cause damn, I FEEL GREAT!
Thank you for making this joke so that I didn't have to.
-
Jough in that photo your expression makes me think that you are personally responsible for the greening of the river, that you are please, and that it is all part of your evil plan. I approve.
-
I think it's the coat + glasses + eerie green river that makes me think that Jough's picture could be straight out of a bad cyberpunk film. (The greening of the river is part of an elaborate plot to sabotage the reputation of GenericMegaCorp.)
Second train of thought: "gee, our pool is about that color right now, but that's just because of tragic chlorination problems."
-
Total sausage-fest. Of course I have yet to work somewhere with more men than women.
I'd guess biotech is similar to clinical imaging then. The ratio of females to males has approached 2 at 3 of the companies I've worked at (and in some labs its skewed even higher). I have no explanation for this. Not just bench rats, either. Managers and Senior Scientists are female at a rate I was not expecting (given the glass ceiling stories you tend to hear about women in science). Maybe the world is changing.

There is much performance art to be mined by men with falsies.

The explanation my brain's filling in isn't so good. It gets pretty pervy and pretty disturbing pretty fast.
Also, though you are a fine looking young man, I do worry... Didn't Mike Watt warn you to defend yourself against the 70's?
-
Fuck Mike Watt, the '70's were the best.
-
A can for Paul for defending the '70s.
I don't have a lot of pictures of myself wearing normal clothes, so even the non-costume pics represent the extremes of my wardrobe (for the most part). The mustache one in particular is a bit of a caricature of what I looked like at the time. Part of the reason I shaved my mustache was that in combination with the shirts I was wearing it was giving off a serious Uncle Badtouch vibe. That picture was taken a few hours before I shaved it off, and as a gag I picked out the worst possible clean shirt I had and as many gold chains as I could find in the jewelry section at Value Village. I mostly just wear those shirts when I go to the club.

The old guy behind you in the picture looks tired out. I like to imagine that he's your grandpa, and though you're mean enough to relegate him to another booth (probably with a stranger he doesn't know), he cares about you so much that he's still worn out with worry over your drinking of so much beer. Later he follows you, 13 ft behind in a little scooter, making sure you don't fall over. Maybe he gets withing 12 ft and you turn to him steely eyed and say "hey! Back off old man!" Later at the game, he sits four rows back from you, proudly pointing out the back of your head to the strangers on either side of him, saying "That's my grandson. He's a good boy."
I don't know why I imagine this. I don't think you're a jerk or anything, TN. Maybe it's because for so many old people, I know their lives really are the saddest thing.
Fun fact: due to odd liquor laws put in place after a guy I went to school with got drunk, wandered out of a bar alone and drowned in the river, locally you can not order a beer of that size, though you can order two smaller beers that equal that size. A friend who was a waitress once got the restaurant she was working at fined for filling a pint glass. It is illegal to sell a full pint of beer here, but any patron can order up to two beers at once... and if it's on tap, it's always served in a pint glass anyway, just not filled to the top. Odder than this, you can order a pitcher of beer if there is a certain number of people at your table (I think it's six) but half the people at the table can order a pitcher each - this gets more confusing the more you drink, which worked to my advantage back in the day, as I used to get drunk for free amid the confusion most of the time.

I had the exact same thing, Dos equus in a 40 oz mug with my dinner on Friday. Sheesh, it's just like 3 beers. No big.

Dos Equus would actually be... Dos Equi.
Also: the concept of that much beer terrifies me.

It is always good to put faces to names...
What I need to do is find a picture of myself that isn't me goofing off in some buddy's short film so that I, like, actually look like me and so on... and put it on the internet.
I am not a pretty lady, however, so it doesn't seem pressing. The internet has enough pictures of vaguely-handsome-but-somewhat-heavyset dudes in their twenties. There are never enough pictures of pretty ladies, ever.
That's basically the only reason God puts up with us anymore, so that we keep producing pretty ladies that God can look at. If it weren't for that, I'm sure we'd be in the Cosmic Recycle Bin already.

Ain't you in Clerks 2?
-
Well, yes, but:
a) That's the fattest I've ever been in my life.

b) That's me with my hair short, no glasses and no beard so it looks nothing like me.
So even though there's a frame of reference, it's not a good one.

What's Vampire Squid, and do they have a tshirt?
they have an awesome shirt, which i am wearing in my avatar. i don't know if i can find a picture of it, but the screenprint on the side has a lady being compromised by two such creatures. it's from a friend's design from our First Flyer Ever and it is very cool. the best thing though is that it is a great thing to wear in and of itself, with no "omg my band" context. i wore it for the first time today in asheville (been avoiding it 'cause not being able to play with them gives me hella depression) and a dude in my spanish class says "vampire squid!" since it's on the back of the shirt. of course he must have been thinking of this (http://youtube.com/watch?v=bmi9CU52KsI). and i didn't even want to tell him what it was. i just showed him the naked lady on the side and walked away.
you can find the band on myspace. there's a few live recordings up. we're almost done with our full length!

Yeah, but this is (mostly) America, so the only thing that matters is that you were in a movie. Did you not get the memo about the hierarchy of importance? You are right above being on Jerry Springer, and right below riding in a car with a teen idol flashing her hoo-hoo.

beatrice-- do you go to UNCA? I have several/a bunch of friends there!

i do! i've been in asheville since the 14th and just finished my second week of classes. i know almost no one and am terribly bored. my roomate's an awesome guy but he's not really keyed in to the whole "i should probably introduce this girl to people" thing. and everybody's s nice, but i haven't had any actual social encounters with new people. just the kid i live with and the one person i met before moving here.

I know that. But if they ain't finding her she needs an excuse to lure 'em in.
I followed the 90/10 principal in college. I trolled the different housing areas, supplied my own booze (that'll open a lot of doors) and followed the sounds of music and people. Met a metric butt-ton of people, 90% I never wanted to see again and 10% who turned out to be real good people to know down the line.

You ever play golf with Stan Humphries?
-
I once looked up Stan Humphries on wikipedia, to find out who he is. And I also played golf once. Crazy golf. On a website. That's kind of close, right?
Beatrice, your band sort of reminds me a mixture of Calexico and Mclusky, which in theory should be abominable, but is actually rather good! Congratulations, I like it. A question: Is being good-looking a prerequisite to playing the violin, or a side-effect of? Every lady violin-er I have ever seen has been all different kinds of smokin' hot. It's uncanny.
Here's a picture (http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v122/57/117/796770397/n796770397_1145630_4183.jpg) of some new friends and I! We found 5 stray kittens in our shed, and they are so bloody cute. One of them was all half-dead and runty though, so we took him to the vet. They couldn't do nothing for him, he had no eyes and some other severe fucked-up-ness. In the words of the vet, "he's buggered." They put him down.. but not before I saw the worst thing ever. I was absolutely appalled, and that aint an easy thing to accomplish. I can't get it out of my brain. I know there are a few animal lovers here so I won't go into details unless anyone wants to be totally grossed out.

Come on man, don't tease us.
-
You're sure about this? You can't un-read it, y'know. Although thinking about it there are videos of stuff a lot worse online, and I'm probably just being squeamish because I saw it happening to a completely undeserving kitten. A really cute one, at that. He (we weren't sure if it was actually a he, but he was too nice to be an it) was about two thirds the size of his litter-mates, ribs like bent matchsticks showing beneath his thin black fur. Despite being the runt of the litter, he was damn feisty, crawling round the box we were carrying him in and mewing like a good'un. We named him Spidey.
Okay so basically the vet was holding the kitten to check it had an arsehole. He was prodding the general area with his fingers, none too gently, when all of a sudden out squirts a disgustingly large globule of what I take to be a of pus. Gooey white shit splattered the table, exactly like a giant spot bursting, with the little feline practically screeching with pain. My stomach turns. In retrospect it's pretty obvious the kitten was fucked, but I was still hoping for the best. The vet continues handling him, moving on to its eyes. Unlike his siblings, both of them are still sealed shut, with one of them looking all swollen and distended. He forces one set of eyelids open, revealing a disturbing lack of anything. Oh well thinks I, nothing wrong with a one-eyed cat. Might have some difficulty chasing balls of string, but no biggie. The vet is looking none too happy as he goes on to the other eye, the enlarged one. As he pries the lids open, I catch sight of something vaguelly resembling an eyeball and a sparkle of hope lights my young, foolish heart. This comes to an end abruptly as out shoots a goddamn fountain of the same ugly white slime that came out his bum. With this my bubble is thoroughly burst. There was a lot of that shit. A tea-spoon full at least. The poor little thing must've contained more pus than brains and blood. I'm still fighting my gag reflex when the vet pulls out the needle to end his sorry little life.
I suppose it's the for the best though. I mean, Spidey?
-
You're sure about this? You can't un-read it, y'know.
Yeah, that was pretty rough chuckles. I'm sorry you went through that, dude.
Somebody nice, Wombles . . . I know this is futile . . . there is nothing for you to see there.

I have no idea who Stan Humphries is but I have to assume that its pronounced with an "Umphries" and that rappers in the top ten are thus allowed to bumphries.
I love kitties and I feel bad for this poor kitty but I must say that there is an irony in the naming a cat Spidey and then watching his body expell pretty-much web fluid.

That's why I say more or less. The number of chemicals and parts that all come together and mostly function mostly correctly is kind of surprising. We can build the space shuttle and that works mostly correctly most of the time, but we have not synthesized anything even moderately complex that can self replicate and react in a self-preservation kind of way to environmental changes or injury. Nature is awesome.

That's worth 100 cans. You are wise beyond your years. The neat thing is that we can fix ourselves.

Nigel: Er, excuse me, I want to get married.
Henry the Registrar: I'm afraid I'm already married, sir.
Nigel: Er, no, no. I just want to get married.
Henry the Registrar: I could get a divorce, I suppose, but it'll be a bit of a wrench.
Nigel: Er, no, no. That wouldn't be necessary because...
Henry the Registrar: You see, would you come to my place or should I have to come to yours, because I've just got a big mortgage.
Nigel: No, no, I want to get married here.
Henry the Registrar: Oh dear. I had my heart set on a church wedding.
Nigel: Look, I just want you to marry me... to...
Henry the Registrar: I want to marry you too sir, but it's not as simple as that. You sure you want to get married?
Nigel: Yes. I want to get married very quickly.
Henry the Registrar: Suits me, sir. Suits me.
Nigel: I don't want to marry you!
Henry the Registrar: There is such a thing as breach of promise, sir.
Nigel: Look, I just want you to act as registrar and marry me.
Henry the Registrar: I will marry you sir, but please make up your mind. Please don't trifle with my affections.
Nigel: I'm sorry, but...
Henry the Registrar: That's all right, sir. I forgive you. Lovers' tiff. But you're not the first person to ask me today. I've turned down several people already.
Nigel: Look, I'm already engaged.
Henry the Registrar: (agreeing and thinking) Yes, and I'm already married. Still we'll get round it.
Second Man: (entering) Good morning. I want to get married.
Henry the Registrar: I'm afraid I'm already marrying this gentleman, sir.
Second Man: Well, can I get married after him?
Henry the Registrar: Well, divorce isn't as quick as that, sir. Still, if you're keen.
Third Man: (entering) I want to get married, please.
Henry the Registrar: Heavens, it's my lucky day, isn't it. All right, but you'll have to wait until I've married these two, sir.
Third Man: What, those two getting married... Nigel! What are you doing marrying him?
Henry the Registrar: He's marrying me first, sir.
Third Man: He's engaged to me!
Fourth Man: Come on, Henry.
Henry the Registrar: Blimey, the wife.
Second Man: Will you marry me?
Fourth Man: I'm already married.
Narrator: Well, things turned out all right in the end, but you musn't ask how 'cos it's naughty. They're all married and living quite well in a council estate near Dulwich.
Jeez, inev, how long did that have to take you to figure that out? Folks, do I not post with enough clarity?

After all that, the goddamn wanker of a mother cat went and bloody moved the bastard things. I guess she might have taken offence at my taking her offspring to be prodded painfully then poisoned. She can't have taken them far, I'm gonna put on my safari hat and khakis and go hunting tomorrow.
I mean, I know that on an abstract level. But, shit! We are so easy to break.
We are far too easy to break. That 0.01% is always lurking there in the background, like that creepy guy with the comb-over and shabby tweed jacket you keep seeing at the supermarket far more than you actually should. The thought that all it takes is one little mishap to completely fuck us up beyond any hope of fixing and that this constant battle to not fall apart is all utterly futile quite frankly scares me. But I s'pose you can slightly improve matters by only showering sober.
They say buggered in Qatar?
This guy did. But he was big and black and probably not Qatari, as you'd be very hard pressed to find one willing to prod kitty bums.

Nabu is personally responsible for the melting of the polar icecaps.
Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, and Daniel Radcliffe are the results of experiments to genetically engineer another human as sexy as Nabu. They are all miserable failures.

Ok look, I apologize for that. Sort of a messageboard Tourette's thing I got going on there. The second photoset will consist of one (1) man and one (1) lady, ok? Jeez.

This isn't a photo of a dolphin trying to race an armchair, but the phrase "dolphin trying to race an armchair" for some reason reminded me of this:

I'm not really sure what else the internet is for, actually.

I mean, there is no deeper meaning. The concept is that as a 19 year old boy, I am probably not very fun to watch in these intimate moments. Kind of like... a dolphin trying to get in a footrace with an armchair. That dolphin, he gets the idea, but it just isn't working out how he planned.

Hey, don't look at me. I just posted something one could probably charitably describe as a photo, even if it has been slightly modified from the original (unless they really did get a cow to swim and leap out of the sea), a few posts back!

I definitely remember him from Dumbrella. He was . . . sort of a cock.
-
Again, I liked him. But then, we chatted privately so I got to see his warm, cuddly side on occasion.
He was the bad boy of Dumbrella. Of course I had an internet crush on him.
If I were half the slut IRL that I am on the internet I would be on a first-name basis with the pharmacist.
-
I thought he was funny, but you can't deny he was a cock on lots of occasions. Of course, I am too. That guy Bob was funny, and he was a cock all the time.
-
He was an asshole, but he was a *clever* asshole.
He and jough didn't get on, though, so I don't think he ever made it over here. Didn't Onstad ban him outright just before the board blew up?
-
I'm pretty sure R Stevens didn't like him either, hence his name being filtered. But then he was just insane with random filters anyway.
-
Yeah, totally unlike this board.

Except those 3 are only filters because they were also filtered on Dumbrella. If it weren't for R Stevens we'd be able to say all 3 of those words. AFAIK the only new filters unique to us are fuck*ng, pu$$y, and hoss.

I was just countering your (admittedly implied) claim that R. Stevens was an crazier with the random word filters than jough. Is all.

I always forget about that one. I'd say that R. Stevens is more whimsical than Jough. But in terms of sheer entertainment value it's hard to top fuck*ng.

"c*ck becomes cock" suggests, to me, some sort of superheroic dealy.
Like a fellow has a reasonably-sized wang and the lady he is about to do The Squishy Dance with says "Oh, that's a fairly nice c*ck" and then he says "SHAZAM!" and via magical lighting, it becomes massive and impressively purplish and veiny and so on and she yells despite herself...
"What a great cock!"
I... write little stories when I hear a nice turn of phrase.
This is what I do instead of "succeeding" or "improving myself spiritually" or "cleaning the apartment".

Paul is an adult. It is ok if he goes out into the world alone. Jeez, I know you're young, but it's like playing peek-a-boo with you. Just because he is not here right now does not mean he has disappeared.

i am just sad that he is not here. i suppose being on a trip is a good excuse... this time.

Look people, I don't care how far off topic this thread slides as long as it ends with pictures of Nabu and the inev making out like 9th grade D n' D nerds who've been fueled by peanut butter and jelly, cheese doodles and way, waaaaay too much store-brand cola. Have you ever noticed how I'm a Mod, but not of any particular topics? That is because I am the Mod of "making sure this happens." And it's okay if Daniel has to imagine Cartilage head, and Nabu... doesn't need to imagine anything. Just... make sure there's bedhead. Alright?
-
Too far?
-
... why do you imagine that imagining Cartilage Head would get me hot?
right now, unless I clean up my room, the only things sleeping with me will be a variety of nasty-ass bugs. Goddamn, a tiny room gets messy so fast.

Too far?
Well, it's complicated, innit? What with inev seeming to be only into the girls and all.

Don't you recall back when I warned you against putting a Cartilage Head poster over your bed because it might seep into your fantasy life? That's what I was referring to.
-
oh!
yeah, it isn't over my bed. It's next to my desk. If anything, I will be having dream-fantasies about... A plane turning into a tree (built to spill poster), the members of The Smiths, or Kurt Cobain.

It's even more necessary now. Like a hungry man needing to eat when he's been looking at pictures of a hot, juicy burger. Except with hot, juicy man-love instead. His fevered imagination will be working over-time now. He'll be drawn to you like a moth to an electric bug zapper. A bug zapper of sexiness.

damn, dude, bug zapper of sexiness? that is like 90% of my last several days. fuck that shit.

Inevitable, that is the second most intriguing thing I've read all day. Do explain, and I shall give fuck*ng it some very serious consideration.
For the record, the first most intriguing thing is that there's someone named "Edgar Allan P. Hoe". I found it in a list of people who I'm fairly sure aren't made up.

you are considering fuck*ng whatever I say? Maybe I should keep it to myself, then.

Sorry, not literally. It is an attempt at humour on my part, which I suppose is kind of like a dog trying to play the harmonica.

yeah, I was attempting to use humour to distract from the fact that there is no story here. I forget what I was referring to.
other than, you know, that really fun thing where a girl is all "I am so pretty, and also smart and awesome! I flirt with you all the time!" and you go "RAD!" and she goes "what the fuck, leave me alone! Why can't we just be friends!" and it's like... "what!? What? But you were... fuck! stop that!"
except that even this only happened in my head? damn, I am in kind of a weird place lately.

wait.. I guess that is, uh, kind of the problem?
But yeah seriously I hate the whole messing with the head thing that far too many of the seemingly nice girls seem to do. Maybe it's unintentional, or just us hormonal youngsters looking into things too deeply? Or both? Well yeah I'm going to stop now as this is like a slightly retarded dog trying to teach another dog how to play the harmonica.

That is an awfully cool picture. Did you take it? Did the flash startle the deer into legging it, followed by the pissed off puma deciding on a nice tasty meal of photographer instead? Then you picked up that massive log in front of you and had an epic duel? That'd be even cooler.

Hmm, so either you kill the pretty cougars, or you get stalked/eaten by the pretty cougars.
Also, "Cougar Medicine" sounds like a band name.
-
Self defence.. How could you prove that? Do you have to have like bite-marks on your throat to show as evidence before you can shoot it? Also SSS?
Cougar medicine.. I like that term. It'd almost be worth getting stalked by one just to be all "COME TAKE YOUR MEDICINE, YOU PUSSY!"
Living alongside deadly animals like that seems pretty mind-blowing to me. Just knowing that nature could just come along and take you out. The most dangerous native species round by me is spoilt arabs in big cars with no fuck*ng idea how to drive, which despite probably killing more dudes, doesn't really compare to getting your flesh chomped on.
