We had some killer Chicken Gumbo.

We've got the same brand of fake fireplace down in the foyer. The other one's real though, and we buy firewood every year for it...

Gumbo rules, eaily one of the best foods there is IMO of course.

No IMO about it. We have it twice a year. Once over the summer and once on Christmas Eve. It's GLORIOUS!

Chicken Gumbo + White Rice + French Bread = Heaven

I want to stroll into random thread and make useless, trolling posts too. BAH HUMBUG!
Lighten up, Mason. Merry Christmas.

You are a bizarre little kid.


I come into every one of your photography threads hoping maybe, just MAYBE this will be the one that's actually worthwhile, but it hasn't happened yet. I think I give up.

And I don't think I've ever seen a worthwhile post from you, Mason. You spout all of this shit about me being a useless, inferior poster and yet you haven't done ANYTHING to prove you're any better.

Grow the fuck up and lighten the fuck up. Merry Christmas! >:E

What's the purpose of anyone taking an insulin injection in the deltoid ?
I was under the impression those shots are given in the abdomen.

Honestly I came into the thread because I'm not spending xmas with anyone, and would like to be able to see other people appriciate this time of year.

It's as close as spending time with family or friends I'll have for xmas sadly.

You in LA?
You should come here tomorrow and have some Gumbo leftovers. I have to leave tomorrow night, but there's no point in your spending christmas alone.

Nah, it's ok man I'm old enough to be ok with it. I really appreciate it, but it's no big deal anymore, as I've spent the last 5 alone anyway.

I had a screwed up family growing up, and I'm honestly much better off without them, besides my girl will be back soon enough.
She went to Hawaii with her niece and son to sort of bring Xmas to her brother and sister in law since they have not been able to make it to mainland the last 5years.

BTW: enjoy Houston, as much as you may dislike it, it's an awesome improvment over La.
Thankfully my girl told me a few days ago when I brought it up that she would be willing to relocate if I wanted to :)

Don't talk down to me. Seriously. That's even more childish.

I will, however, do you a favor and stay out of your threads from now on. In return, I ask that you to try to cut down on the stupid picture threads that just BEG to be made fun of. Peace be with you.

Could these threads be merged into one? Yes. But whatever, let's quit being "Debbie Downer"s and just enjoy. K?

I am spending my Christmas with family, but my mother is working today and tomorrow till late. My family is also divorced, so I do not have a father (I hate him too). I do not have a Christmas tree or present. My present is kind of my whole post-secondary education in the east coast. Merry Christmas everybody.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
I wish I had a fireplace....f**k living in Manhattan :(

Olimario those are some great pictures and screw the grinches that are trying to kill the Christmas spirit. I must say though that your family reminds me of the Cleavers. ;)

Don't blame Manhattan. I grew up there and we had one on every floor. Blame your realtor.
 
I'm pretty excited about Christmas this year. Even though I've been with my g/f for ten years, this is our first time living together and in a way our first Christmas together. Sure we would spend the day together, but its different when you live with the person. We have our first tree together, bought our first ornament together which happens to be one of those First Christmas ornaments with the year on it and everything. It's just a whole different level of spending Christmas with someone you care about. I just took this pic about 10 min ago. Enjoy.

My penis is still intact.
You were with your girlfriend for 10 years before you lived together?

On a side note, that little parcel on top of two others at the front to the right...that's just the right shape to get excited about.

I thought Matrix lived in Texas.
What are his thoughts on Manhattan? I would surely like to know.
Does he enjoy Manhattan, does he think the cold fucking sucks balls? Does he have an elevator in his building and realize how fucking lucky he is that he doesn't need to carry shit up stairs all the tim? Tiny apartments suck balls because people all asleep on your bed, hopefully Matrix doesn't have someone else asleep on his bed too.
 
Damn I could use a bottle of moet. The only thing I had available was some damn sprite... Argh, being stranded sucks. BTW oli, I like your picture threads...because it shows me what type of pics I'll be able to take when I get a decent camera. I need to get one ASAP. Tell that Mason dude to grow TF up.

Takes a lot more than just a good camera... With good cameras come more manual options. Complicates the process somewhat.

Yep, I took 2 years of photography back in high school, so i know a lil bit, but then again that was like 6-7 years ago, I might have to brush up, and get up to speed with digital. Although the digital SLR's should be fairly similar to the manual SLR's I would think. Hmm, who knows? I guess I'll find out when I cop one in a few months.

Olimario: I hate your camera. You should give me your camera so I can show you how much I hate it :D (wink wink wink wink wink) :)

Anyway, here's my sucky photography:
