Is it a blessing or a curse when people think you're younger than you are? People say I look 18 or 19 when I'm 25. I don't know whether that's a complement or an insult

Yep, I feel the same...we were talking about hair right...

I just got a cut so it's thinner than you see. Probably never going to grow out my hair again.

I've never really cared for it, but I work for a company where a lot of the folks are really into it. After going to a few games, I'm... actually starting to like it.

It was sorta fun being able to put my kid in the Stanley Cup, too...

i wouldnt mind giving it a shot. i understand the basic rules, but there were no hockey clubs or teams in my area growing up, so missed opportunity.

blown = mad o_O

My wheel was flat because I let someone borrow the car while I was at work. When I get off work, the tire is flat with a huge nail in it.

1.) Hockey video games are fun as shit with friends.

2.) Michigan hockey is the shit.

3.) Like most sports, it's very entertaining if you give it a chance. Personally, though, Baseball, basketball and football are enough for me and my sports needs.

Hockey is like soccer. It's boring as shit to watch people play(at least to me), but it's fun to play. I played it with friends all through HS(field), then played a few times(ice) here and back in Chicago. I realized there's no reason for one man to be that sore, so I stopped hah

It's not as boring as soccer, but I still couldn't set through an entire game if I tried. I remember going to some Blackhawks games and either playing on my phone most of the time, eating and not paying attention at all, or literally falling asleep. Just can't do it.

My Fridays have been pretty tame lately. The weeks are generally really busy for me and Mrs. Better-half. Tonight, we're going to just relax at home and chat over a bottle of:

If I wasn't so tired, I'd get into some Torchlight.

One of my ex's was a black girl (she looked Latina) and she posted on some forums. She was big into WoW. Her life spiraled out of control after we broke up tho.

true. the only time ive been able to watch it was when fox illuminated the puck. and the only reason that was is because it reminded me of 3 on 3 hockey that midway put out

Half an hour ago I was playing Uncharted 2 multiplayer with some friends who I are vanilla. Some southern dick just kept spouting all types of obscenities. I believe he was vanilla as well. After the round was over, he went into overdrive. At that point I joined in the shit talking fest and told him to "go pick some damn cotton". I never an entire room bust out in a massive universal lol.

Travelling's expensive in NYC. :(

Thats a fine career choice. I have a Bachelor of Applied Arts Illustration degree. These days though I'm mostly a practitioner of graphic design, but I still do illustration sometimes.

Nice, so am I. you post any of your stuff in one of the art threads here?


I wish there was an R&B thread here, I'd make one, but y'know, junior and all. Anyway, here is some of the stuff I've been listening to recently.

Lauryn Hill's Sweetest Thing

Jill Scott's Gettin' in The Way

Trey Songz Gotta Go

Words and Sounds volume 1 and THe Miseducation of Lauryn Hill are great, great albums of course, but I think Trey Songz first album is pretty underrated, don't like much of his new stuff though.

Hehe true true, I guess I should've said expensive compared to other types of Hennessy.

Like at my liquor store there's some Henne that's $125 for a 750ml bottle. Never had it, but that shits gotta flavorful.
