    I don't have tits (unless you count my moobs) so does good music count? Couldn't find a decent quality video of it but the song is good...



    Also, both of my parents' cars managed to break today. One is drivable, one is not. There goes Christmas, since the one is likely to need a new engine (it's done nearly 200,000 miles and my dad has been putting off getting it sorted out due to prohibitive cost - now he has no choice, since it has to get towed) but my mom's car's problem is likely to be much more expensive - I suspect it's the wiring loom breaking down. This is a common problem on old E-Class Mercs, and the replacement part is about $3000. Fuck.

    Also, I am firmly on the wagon this weekend, since my asthma has been awful this month. Post-nasal drip that triggers it has also been working overtime.

    I am, however, considering donations for new lungs. Fuck asthma in its rusty ring.

    Sometimes I wonder if Durbanite is real.

    For the first time in my life, I finally have my own place. This can only mean one thing: time to walk around naked.

    Don't buy it! The picture is shit compared to a 75" Mitzu Laservue similarly priced. I'm trading up from my 65" Panny plasma for the 75 Laservue. The Panny will be relocated to my bar. I know some people have had problems with DLP's in the past, but if you have the space they are the best bang for your buck.(Without going to a front projector, which unfortunately for me is not an option.)

    And here is a nice thought to keep in spirit of the thread...

    Agreed, however the only drawback to DLP's is the viewing angle is much more limited. Have they gotten better in that regard?

    Also, just whipped up this.

    Different people have different sensitivities to the rainbow effect that DLP gives you. I can see it and it bugs the shit out of me... plus viewing angles still aren't great. You're projecting onto a screen, so viewing angles are never going to be as good as LCD.

    Also, DLP has higher power consumption and a higher likelihood of failure (you have to replace bulbs periodically, and it has moving parts to fail).

    The Laservue models are much better on the viewing angle than the older bulb type DLP's. Once again though, it doesn't affect me much because most of the seats in my living room are either directly in front of the screen or only slightly off to one side.

    YMMV...

    I love running and lots of plyo. Coming back from my ankle crap, I noticed a HUGE difference when I added these back.

    That's it for basball for another year. My legs feel like they were beaten with a morning star. FUCK the pain.

    Sammerton dancing with and eventually sleeping with that trans chick brings up a question I've often thought about:

    At what point is it ethically incumbent to let somebody know that you're trans? What if you've had bottom surgery -- does that change anything? If you're only planning on making out, should you tell somebody?

    My rule of thumb is you should tell them if you think it would change their behavior, but I'm interested to know what you guys think.

    I don't know, if you have all the same physical bits as a woman... I'm not sure you're obligated to tell a guy unless it's a long term relationship.

    I mean, of course there's the "yuck" factor, and it could change someone's behavior. Part of me says "OF COURSE YOU SHOULD TELL SOMEONE" because of my knee-jerk gut reaction, but there are a lot of things that could change someone's behavior - are you obligated to tell everyone you want to sleep with everything about you? If a woman told me, at a bar, that she likes to torture animals, I would cease speaking to her immediately. If she told me she likes it when guys shit on her chest and she just got done doing it the night before, I probably wouldn't go home with her. Are you really obligated to disclose all of the facets of your life/physical being that might turn someone off if they found out?

    Obviously, the rules change in a long term relationship.

    Reminds me of the departed.

    That rule sounds fair, and I agree with it in theory. Though, being honest, I doubt it wouldn't change most people's behavior. I'm a pretty liberal guy. I don't get skeeved out by gay guys being affectionate in public. But if I was about to make out with Melissa, and she mentions she was born Michael, we're done, and I'll probably go to the bar for another bourbon, or two, or four.

    Although typing this out did just make me think of something. Is this what we are discussing?

    Because then I might reconsider.

    Of course you would. Because with that body, you could handle anything.

    I either just got street harassed by a group of teenage girls, or they confused me for someone they knew. Hard to say, I don't hear so good at high frequencies.

    It drives me insane. I hate the noises people make when they eat. All the chomping, smacking, crunching, etc. It never fails that the person sitting behind me in lecture are eating FunYuns or some nasty, smelly shit like that. People are gross.
