Just to reiterate, the medical exam to get in is pretttttty lenient and casual.
I probably shouldn't have got in myself but next year I'm going to be jumping out of perfectly good airplanes for a living.

Jump School?
But this is the third post in my post drunken stopped. Gallowwalkers is one of the worst films I have seen in a while. Wesley did this movie in 2007 and it wasn't released until 2013. Its on Netflix. Its some zombie cursed cowboy thing that's a mish mash of random shit. You all should indulge in the shittiness with me.
Yup, it had no redeeming qualities. They even lifted entire scenes from other movies. I remember in the beginning thinking to myself "this sure reminds me of the beginning of Once Upon a Time in the West," and then Wesley Snipes drops the "you brought X horses too many" and I just shook my head in disbelief.
The scene I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyuwBW9lNa8

I'm really sick again. Going back and forth between campuses to so I can get into a couple courses this semester. Only partially moved in at this point, and the internet is pretty crappy here.
Hoping to have a new/better internet set-up next week so we can record a new podcast.

Why are people so clueless about Youtube? FFS
In this day and age, you should be more worried about people shooting you.

What's this in reference to?
I think he means the whole copyright wars going on between youtube and youtube partners

Yeah, the latest thread on gaming side made me facepalm - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=736390
I've actually been working overtime the last few days helping our corporate comms deal with claims and such. No joke, in a lot of cases, the claims are false flags, and we can push to get those released by whatever bogus company was claiming.
However, some partners genuinely believe they should be able to use whatever the hell they want without consequence. Because they are part of a network. I want to slap idiots so hard when you explain that the "tracking ID" placed on their video, as a result of the soundtrack music they used in their
shitty
AND THEY REPLY WITH "I have the right to use this music because i am a Machinima partner"
GTFO of here!

I'm also a hoodie guy, and I was oblivious to it all until my sister told me to put my hood down while shopping with her.
I asked her why, and she told me that a lot of the workers gave me second looks while I walked around texting. She was right, and I somehow didn't notice this whole time.
I kept my hoodie on. I just wanted some street passes...

Question for those who may live in a bigger cities. Is there such a thing a barbershop turf war? When I got home I see this flyer for a new shop on my door and it has all the bells and whistles. Pictures of styles, inspirational quote, facebook link, etc. It had everything except an address and a phone number.
I look closer and I see that someone marked over those details with a black marker. I looked at all my other neighbors flyers and they are the same way. I couldn't help but laugh at this situation. Either someone on the inside doesn't want this guy to succeed or there is someone following the person putting up these flyers.
We are not getting both sides of this story.
Does the hoodie say "Don't start none won't be none" in some urban based lettering?

I've uploaded 280 vids to YT to date. Since all this Content ID stuff started, i've been hit with 4 claims in total, and disputed them all. I always went the extra mile to seek out permissions and buy licenses for music if required. Some partners treat YT like the Wild West, and are now paying the price.
Just cause you have the protections of a MCN, doesn't mean you can take whatever the hell you want and worry about it afterwards. Idiots.
Mind you, Content ID is not foolproof either, and needs serious work. And the MCNs are all greedy as hell and complicit in all of this. YT is extra broken.
Yea it was a long time coming tbh. PewDiePie is untouched because of how high he is on the "youtube ladder" and everyone else is basically fucked. Youtube/Google and there passive-aggressive way of not really dealing with this and letting it fly by is what scares people the most. Google been fucking up Youtube for years tho, it's actually sad.
I don't know the full story from the dev side of things like Esco tho

Yes you haven't about the enchanted guilds of le barberdom. That EGOLB is serious buisness. We only speak of them in hushed tones. At midnights on the fifth Thursday of every 8th month they meet for the "Culling of the Lochs" a tradition that was passed down uncle to nephew on the third Sunday of every 8th year. They walk through every MLK street and hand clippers to every child the deem worthy of passing on advisement and selling of wares for cheap prices. They started with the small things, bootlegging of beverages in the 20's and now bootlegging of anything that can be bootlegged. And they pray to the patron saint, St. Wahl. But the ones who blacked out those numbers maybe of a different sect. I have heard rumblings of those who worship the teachings of St. Oster......
Or they could just be ratchet as fuck trying to do dirty buisness.
This new podcast with Mero and Desus is funny. http://t.co/NFPCophXvY
Desus and Mero are twitter personalities that come with grade A slander. This dude said he doesn't listen to anyone rappers that scored 1000 on they SAT. That J. Cole bed, bath, and beyond slander on the ground crying with laughter.

It was definitely an experience.
You should see the tshirts I got lol..
It was something. The dancers/stage/lighting are awesome. And Yeezy always brings the energy.
I'm less worried about the physical and more worried about it not being 80-100% healed by boot camp

Heh, I had always kinda knew about it, but I decided to look more closely at those states since game developers are basically all in Texas, Cali, and Washington. Was worse than I thought.
That said, I really did like LA when I went to E3 earlier this year, so maybe it's "worth it". I dunno. Would definitely have to do some salary negotiation, lol.

I learned there is no institutionalized racism anymore only bad parenting today.
Bellevue is the uppity town across the water where all the Microsoft employees live. Seattle/suburbs is better to live in and not as expensive.
