weyes

my hometown: new york city. lived on the upper west side of manhattan when my parents were still together (till i was three), then lived downtown in soho with my mom and stepfather when my parents got divorced and they had joint custody - with my dad only having my brother and me wednesdays and every other weekend.

double-deuce bottles of beer on the wall double-deuce bottles of beer on the wall, double-deuce bottles of beer, i drink one, ya mofos! (so much for 99 posts in this thread...) now there are:

i've had sleeping problems my whole life. i finally went to a doctor about them a few years ago and got the proper treatment. my life has changed so much; to finally be able to sleep like i imagine most people do is amazing .

well, gmc, as i said, even if i know the whole title of the thread and type it in, i can't find it. there must be another trick you guys aren't telling me.

all right, you know the one i'm talking about. scene: an o-so-hip party with "swingin' yuppies" doin' the swingin' things that "swingin' yuppies" do. a man is sitting on one end of a retro style bench/couch type piece of furniture. a woman sits down on the other end, giving him the eye. he melts into a ten-year-old boy. the woman reaches for the package of starburst sitting on the table, in front of the man. she then puts a wrapped piece of cherry starburst in her mouth, turns it around it her mouth a few times, then spits out the wrapper, flat and unharmed, label facing the right way, too. i had some time on my hands today - my day off - and i was trying to keep myself from eating so many goddamn oreos (reduced fat or not, they still make me sick), so i figured i'd occupy myself with the starburst trick. first of all, starburst chews fuse a little to their wrappers, being as sticky as they are. but that wouldn't be so much of a problem if the wrapper were durable. but the wrapper, my friends, starts dissolving in 15 seconds. so, i hereby challenge the people who put this ad out to perform this miracle. otherwise, they should take it off the air, 'cause of those "truth in advertising" laws 'n shit .

it is good to "take things with a grain of salt," but not to the point where you just become a cynic. educate yourself and take an active role in learning the facts surrounding any given situation. tune in tomorrow.

and what's up with the all-bran and the baked beans?

hey, vic, a tad , but i saw the rainbow ones in the supermarket the other day... i think i'll get them next time i go shopping ! p.s. how do you post a picture without it having to be opened as an attachment ?

yeah - i don't really get it when people say, "you're just hating," when i talk about something i don't like. hello? didn't i just say i disliked whatever the aforementioned thing is? of course i'm hating !

jesu christe, i am getting such a bad rep out here for stereotyping various and sundry peeps . i do apologize, y'all... and, rock on, gumby, i certainly haven't run across many gems .

rock on, joey... o, and of course, gumby, being overly accomodating to the point of attaining doormat or errand-boy status is not only a bad idea but can get one in trouble as well. but another cliche works here too: ya gotta pick your battles. if there's some silly little task that you can perform that'll keep the peace every once in a while, it's not so terrible to help out.

do you mean to say that, until recently, if you just let your phone ring or had it turned off, people couldn't leave messages? i thought that that feature came with cell phones automatically. (i don't have one though, so what do i know?)

i have a friend who was going out with a guy years ago. a female friend of hers told her that the guy was cheating on her, when he wasn't. then this friend had sex with the bf while my friend was in despair over the whole situation but still hadn't broken up with the guy. my friend then broke up with her bf over the cheating that wasn't happening, having no knowledge of this friend-sleeping-with-bf thing, and her female friend and bf got together directly after and are still going out. my friend is still angry at this girlfriend of hers, but doesn't place any blame on her ex because "he's a guy and can't control himself; that's the way guys are." this, my friends, is a copout. and, just to give you an update, my friend is still "friends" with both the girl and the boy, but the boy has been calling her a lot lately and talking about getting back together. my friend is very excited about this, and claims that this has nothing to do with sending any revenge her girlfriend's way.

uh-oh, i can feel it starting... i think i may be turning into a post-whore . it's scary, and i'm outta control... i'm not nearly as bad as some people , but everything's relative, and this is a big change for me. shit - anyone who posts in the "bump and ..." forum is either on that road or about to set foot on it. sigh. i'm not about to go on the dc board and ask how to download music or anything, but i'm getting pretty damn close to stooping to that level, and i can't help it. (actually, i'm only half joking about that one; i really don't know how to do that. but i'm gonna look through the last few pages and try to figure it out ) someone has to start pwa (post-whores anonymous) and help us, the poor victims of this little-understood disorder! save our souls while there's still hope!

i was gonna say that you could always go and sell them at the door with no problem at all, but if you're not gonna be here... maybe you have a friend who'd do you that favor. otherwise, i dunno...

that was rough! not the problem, though...

sometimes i find myself saying "gnarly..." i'm trying not to, though. but i'm with snarfgirl; "holler at me lata, foo'" has gotta go. and i'm really sick of whattup, dog? and playa.

holyshitfuck my jaw has literally been dropped for a few minutes now. i had to close my mouth because it was getting dry. no offense - i am ever so sorry and did not mean to stereotype, but it is just so hard for me to believe that i've just had really bad luck and that i'm not actually getting a normal average cross-section of what there is out there. know whattamean? and you described what my and the rest of my female friends' gripe is to a tee.

funny that gmc was all over the "toasted or straight from the box" thing, 'cause i think that's a seriously important factor to consider, too, and am gonna have to third that in a major way. i hadn't even considered that anyone would actually put them in the toaster !

o, and gmc, i hear you on the dc thing. they all seem to know each other and be pretty close, so they have their share of inside jokes. as for the dream, only time will tell . yeah, vic, i get deja vu, too. but what always turns out with me is that, as soon as i realize i've seen it before, what i think should happen next doesn't. is that what happens to you?

i don't know if you are being sarcastic or not, but in case you aren't, he was shot in 1984, on the day before his 45th birthday, by his father.

i'm listening to sandra collins' cream - got it a long time ago and just never got around to listening to it - and it seems to me that some part of traveller & quest's "chaos engine" was somewhere on pvd's out there and back. can anybody help me out with this?

try to be as accomadating and flexible an employee as you can when you think your job may be in jeopardy or that the boss' opinion of you might have any bearing on whether or not you have a future at your workplace . tune in tomorrow.

sorry! check your e-mail !

saeed and palash are supposed to be at spundae. has something recently changed?
