    Tangentially, I don't understand someone making a point of not owning a television, but still owning a computer and participating in Facebook. Either way you're wasting time in front on a screen.
    Because TV's are outmoded technology and there's no reason to have one. #projectors4life

    I would sign on to that if I wasn't paranoid about preserving my bulb life. But I meant more those who reject TV for trendy philosophical reasons, like "TV programming is so braindead, I don't rot my brain with that garbage!", then post about it on internet social networking.

    i got the DDavis approved Koss Portapros. they sound as good as any pair of $100 headphones i've ever had on.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    I tried those once, and they're good. But oh boy, are they ugly. I'd never wear them outside my apartment, and if that makes me shallow, so be it. :lol:
    They're awesome, especially for price. And yes, they are dorky as hell. But I wear them everywhere.

    I grew up in a vegan household, but never was anyone ever tempted to advertise foods/etc. as vegan. Like, OMG this is a vegan cupcake, it's just a cupcake. Food is food, if you have dietary restrictions for whatever reason that's cool and you are obviously well within your right to bring them up if you are going to dinner with someone, for example. But I have never understood the "lifestyle" aspect of it. It just seems like such a boring thing to obsess over.

    I used to have some Koss Portapros, they were good though I didn't like how the strap kept getting caught in my hair and the cable was too long. Don't remember what happened to them.



    Bought these the other week (MEElectronics HT-21). They do the trick.

    That is a known issue - luckily for me, I shave my head.

    I rock these for music productions:



    Audio Technical ATH-M50; they've got a great flat-response, and are super comfy.

    It is certainly impressive if you can make a gluten-free baked thing that tastes as good and has as good a texture as its flour-based equivalent. But I don't think that's what's going on here.

    They actually say this on the package sometimes.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Great, now this Brazilian guy arrived in the dorm room and he seems intent on trying to bang the Japanese girl.

    Not in the mood to listen to his attempts at flirting.

    Found my own room, which I'll be moving into tomorrow. Thank God. Freedom.

    Simple solution, Shoe: Introduce the Brazilian to the German. She'll eat him alive.

    Unfortunately she's gone. No one can stop him now.

    Things took a turn for the weird: the Chinese girl who was in the opposing bed has brought a family member (?) over. There's now and old lady wearing a checkered shirt in my eye-line. She seems to be sleeping while sitting up.

    This is just fucking weird.

    Now she's punching the bed. Repeatedly.

    She also farted.

    Seems like these people are intent on making this night the worst one yet. Well-played.

    I heard the girl get in the bed her mother/grandmother is sleeping in (Chinese don't age well...). I'm laying down looking at my laptop screen, so I can't see them.

    Look up for a second to grab my contact lenses gear, and notice the two of them sitting up staring at me.

    Guys, I think this is it.

    They pulled the covers over themselves and are now both giggling like maniacs.

    Why am I not making this up??

    Reasonable. I've been lucky with my projector. I've had it 6 years and have never had to replace a bulb.

    How are you resisting???
