i'd just like to point out that perhaps family is off limits for many of you. but maybe that's not what's off limits for joe. (i'm not suggesting that this is actually true) but maybe joe has been in therapy for 10 years about the shit mike is constantly making fun of him for. and making fun of him in public i might add. none of us know how much it bothers him. if it didn't bother him, Quoth wouldn't be doing it i'm sure. once again, both parties are equally wrong here i think. if you make an enemy expect the worst in return. everyone has their sensitive spots and if you don't know what they are don't judge so harshly. what's a joke to one person is deadly serious to another. for example - if i'm getting laid all the time but someone's busting me on all the rejections i get - that's fine. but if i've never had a gf or had sex or even had a girl interested in me and you make fun of me getting dissed that's something else. and if you do it everyday so that everyone knows about it - in fact people who have never met me suddenly know me as "that kid that they make fun of cause girls think he's a loser" even though you don't really know me, chances are i'm gonna be irate. its all perspective. of course, messing with someone's family is shitty too (its not something i would ever do) - but then again - you post personal shit on the board (a board where you have a very abrasive personality) and you're gonna have to deal with the reactions. thumbs down all around. once again: mike, hope everything works out....

i don't know about 10, but i few that were turning points for me music wise were: 1. pink floyd - meddle: this was the first music i ever had. used to listen to it at night on this old cassette player. 2. joy division: unknown pleasures: similar to mugz thoughts 3. neil young: harvest (i think) - in any event, the album with "Thrasher" on it. Song is all about traveling and sorta being a hippy and stuff. 4. nirvana: incesticide - a whole new strain of music got me outta my 80's music rut. 5. underworld: pearl's girl - these guys just totally crushed me - sorta woke me up to electronica that's about it...lots of music i love, but these are the ones that set me in a new direction and things like that.

kinda like djjon - almost never get upset enough at something that gets done to me to get into a fight. however, mess with my friends or gf's and not only do i have their back, but i'd take steps if needed. most of the time, shit just ain't worth getting into a fight about. on the other hand, sometimes you need to get angry and let shit out cause its not healthy keeping everything bottled up in side. i'm kinda the bottled up kind which is dangerous cause when i do wig out it gets UGLY

i usually keep my mouth shut and i think that Joe's being a dick right now but if any of you are surprised you shouldn't be. quoth unmercifully fucks with joe if i were joe i'd hate quoth too quoth brings this on himself just as much as joe brings quoths comments on himself its hypocritical for any of you to say otherwise. i could be wrong, but i'd guess if roles were reversed quoth would have done something similar in his own style. which is also fucked up and i don't like the whole thing. now, i didn't read all of quoth's original post or anything, but at least joe started a different thread for this instead of fucking with a very serious one. no winners here. not defending anyone just think that if you think that constantly making fun of someone's virginity / body in front of all their friends day after day isn't AS BAD for someone as this was, i think you're all mistaken. if you're board persona is to lash out at people you should expect it in return...that's just the way the world works. _____ mike, hope your mom gets better kid.

first and foremost: when the little chocolate chips get stuck in the too thin straw they give me at hagan daz when i have my mint chip milk shake. oh, yeah, and on a minor matter: the fact that someone less qualified is getting paid. and i'm not that qualified - so therefore i am not "over qualified"

i could do with a little drinking.... i suppose i should actually come out and make it to TT some tuesday. how's everything going?

hmmm...hard to say i'll bet a lot of us have had conversations with and helped really depressed people where you are concerned that they might be thtinking about doing something to themselves, but you are never sure. and such a small percent of suicides "succeed" that its tough on this one. as for other stuff - rock climbing i've caught a number of leader falls - but that's a risk you take when climbing - hiking i've pulled an unconscious person from a large stream, set a broken leg 15 miles from the nearest road, caught someone just as they were about to fall down a small cliff, etc. hard to know if they all would have died or not. - winter camping - revived someone from hypothermia (early stages) - he def. would have died i think - numerous pull backs from traffic and stuff - who knows what would have happened???

i'm gonna be so much older than you.... 2,151,019,095 and counting and i'm already older than you.

exactly what i was talking about...the fact that we get BORED and take that boredom and use it to connect with others for purely social reasons and create (arguably) imaginative things is pretty cool. imagine if you were never bored and never let your mind roam free....

ahhh...well, the only thoughts i'm currently having is that i ate way too much ridiculously yummy chinese food in flushing. my brain is just treading water right now

what up?

don't take this the wrong way: but isn't he dead, not in shock? or the god rest his soul is inappropriate while it certainly sucked to be the guy before he jumped, it doesn't suck to be him anymore...there is no him. on the other hand, it must suck to be in his family, and it must also suck if you were on the sidewalk when the dude's body splatted right next to you (in which case going to the roof and looking at the two nudies might be a welcome distraction)

yeaaahh! and monkeys might fly out my ass!

tru tru i mean Eve ---> Evolution coincidence?

that's ok, evolution believes in god too

as an offshoot of a "discussion" with my crazy grandmother I postulated the following in response to her.... QUESTION: "How can you people sit around talking about such nonsense all the time?" (now, this was a justifiable question by her since i definitely talk about nothing most of the time) MY ANSWER: "Man's ability to make up and talk nonsensically is what separates us from other animals since imagination requires both intelligence and leisure time." CONTINUING REFLECTION: while my intelligence level is open to question, my leisure time is significant and i think this is a good theory. and i further state that CP is perhaps the ultimate expression of nonsense communication (note all the preposterous, unimportant yet entertaining things currently on the board), so therefore CP is the perfect illustration of this theory. (or perhaps I just have too much time on my hands and all of you are working hard and deadly serious about all your postings...) phunk? please help. i think a case of cheap beer and a long porch session might be in order.

i will be at a family thing and unable to make it. however: why not eat at Takahachi (sp). It is 2 doors north of 85a (Homegrown) on ave A. Food is really good and very reasonably priced. My and I think Lav's favorite. They can't hangle huge parties there...but 4 - 6 is usually not a problem.

hmmm....blamed again for rejecting someone...sigh. knowing me i was just to clueless to realize what was being offered btw...i don't disagree the this is all too much info for the boards. and actually, i could give the smallest shit who got up today to go to work or what flavor coffee someone purchased. without taking sides, i think that this thread was about responding to some very public actions publicly.... my personal shit doesn't end up on this board...i challenged them all to bring it and the best they could come up wiht was that i make really good grilled cheese...

lol...i can't believe that someone with 2400 posts wrote this. btw...some people moved to NYC not knowing anyone and this is a great way for them to meet people. also, i didn't see wideskies mention that she doesn't have a large group of other friends or family. obviously this touched a cord with you. perhaps you've been rejected by some loser board guy? (i'm kidding but why are you so worked up about this????)

the doors open at noon. music and beverages and stuff start at 3 if you get there early, you can check out the art work and grab yourself a CHAIR to sit on. last week CP folks were hanging to the left, up against the curvey artwork thing in the main courtyard, just before you get to the area where the dj's were (meaning, on the left side of the main courtyard but close to where the entrancne to the 2nd courtyard is) sorry, can explain it better than that

thank u baby

sorry kids...not making it. couldn't sleep last night...like literally all night i feel like the stuff u might kick off your shoes before going in the house

sometimes you just get comfortable in the good things you have going on and need a new spark. if you'd like you can trade the good job part with me (no job) to give you something to work on

ok, i'm not gonna step into the middle of who's right and who's wrong or lying or shit BUT: it seems that drama is constantly swirling around someone. when that happens people stop giving you the benefit of the doubt. and you need to take an extra hard look at what you're doing before you do it. now, maybe some of the things that have happened weren't your fault, or didn't happen the way people think they did BUT you need to avoid even the appearance or HINT of impropriety cause all people see are patterns, and once they see them they are only gonna see what you do through those patterns. (meaning, the assumption is you're hooking up with someone) the fact that you didn't listen to well meaning advice in the past ads to this cause it makes the people who gave it feel that you don't care about their opinion. all i'm saying is think about how what you are doing appears even if at heart you're not doing what it may look like. if your actions and appearances show respect for other's feelings, they'll show respect for you.

really? i've never heard them. give me an idea (beyond sucking) what they sound like. DT has said some good things about them.
