Official Thread of Flogging the Log: A Place for Better Random Talk

Shit man.

So you can go back to Korea and have a job straight away?

[Himu]

Welp. The time bomb has finally gone off. My house mate  got dumped by his "girlfriend" who he has only seen twice, and is trashing the apartment. He just kicked the shit out of the door and now he's screaming and punching the wall.

[Himu]

ALREADY DID!

[cool breeze]

stab him in the aorta

[Phoenix Dark]

Are you on campus? If so I'm guessing the noise level could get you both in trouble right?

[Don Flamenco]

I feel his pain.   

but you actually had a girlfriend.  himu's room mate is...I don't even know how to describe it...immature is to light of a word. 

speaking of which, kinda, I could go in for some no-strings-attached finals sex...totally not happening this year. haven't seen my friends outside of law school in a month and won't until the end of finals. thus, no random girls at parties. :'(

FUCK Christmas lights

In between Thanksgiving and Christmas too . I wonder what was in it for her, going through this whole ordeal. She used him as e-booty? That's even more baffling.

[Madrun Badrun]

Poor guy  :'( :'( :'(

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

I'll take a random guess and suggest that they were never officially girlfriend and boyfriend.  He just thought she was his girlfriend because he was unfamiliar with how to take things as they come as well as being unfamiliar with the concept entirely.  He got too intense and she was scared off.  He doesn't understand so he starts throwing a fit like a tweener Linkin Park fan.

[Himu]

Not the case.

Still weird.

[Himu]

Cute white girl. Yeah. And the guy in question is a slob.

[BlueTsunami]

Any insight on why she dropped him, Himu? For someone to physically come out and see another person they've met on the internet, that takes a lot of faith that the person they're hooking up with isn't a psycho. She just see how he's really like? Without him having the ability to screen all his negative aspect.

[Himu]

I don't know. I don't even care why they broke up. I just think it's hilarious.

[Phoenix Dark]

do you not care enough to post her pix?

[Himu]

. . .

You can't be serious, Maurice.

[BlueTsunami]

ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DUDE TO POST DA' PIX?!

[Phoenix Dark]

She looks...like a regular chick. The roommate on the other hand... 

[BlueTsunami]

I WANT TO SEEEEEEEEEE

[BlueTsunami]

Just viewed them... she's alright. But your buddy is going to be desert island deprived by how goofy and sloppy he looks. Dude missed the boat. Rub it in by showing him The Fountain on Sony Blu Ray Disk.

[cool breeze]

pictures...of a girl? by gawd, ser!

[Himu]

i may be going to concert this weekend. metric's playing!!!!!!

[Madrun Badrun]

I need to see these pics!

Tiesto, what should i do? Should I get that Hercules table?

I tried downloading virtual DJ but it doesn't work on macs. (I thought DJs and music makers used macs)?

[Barry Egan]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Hmm, there's no Mac version? That's weird, I would have assumed there would be one... a lot of DJs and producers do use Macs (I don't, myself). You can look for other, Mac-friendly DJing programs - Traktor is supposedly a great alternative.

The Hercules table will undoubtedly come with trial versions of software, too. I would suggest you go for it if you don't mind dropping the money. It's a really entertaining hobby.

Today is Wednesday, Dec 2nd....and I just ran out of stuffing  :'(

What do I need to do to start making stuff like yours? Is it just software?

Yeah, actually the first few mixes on the site were done before I even had my mixer... they were done with a buncha MP3s and a cracked copy of Virtual DJ.

I'm surprised you don't know of him -- he's an especially girthy stripper.

He looks like a deranged Dr. Drew who will have dinner with you and slip you roofies then tie you up in his basement and film scat vids while you're helpless.

Sounds like a fun evening.

Another 2.2 miles on the elliptical today. Let's hope it pays off eventually.

I lost over 20 pounds since I stopped drinking two months ago.

edit: I also use an elliptical

I started the elliptical too a few weeks ago, so far I haven't really seen any difference, but I still eat a shitload. I want to lose this paunch, lol.

[Kestastrophe]

I used to do alot of time on the elliptical, but I never saw any results until I started lifting weights. To each his own

[Robo]

I've started doing some weight training at home after seeing some Halloween pictures of myself where my arms look like, as I described in an apt description on Facebook, broken broom sticks with skin-colored canvas draped over them.  I should probably start hitting the gym for real-real and jump on the elliptical, but this seems to be working well enough for now.  I've been finding it easier to sleep lately, anyway.

[The Fake Shemp]

I plan on doing 2+ miles on the elliptical six days a week until I am no longer mistaken for the Michelin man. This is my third day in a row.

... Kesastrophe, I've got the elliptical downstairs. Weight lifting would require a gym membership, or asking my father (who is a physical trainer) for help - neither appeal to me that much.

[Akala]

Staycation ends Monday.

Back to work. 

[Diunx]

Holy shit I did awful in my calculus final :'( I hope to at least get a 15/30 so the teacher can give me five points that way I can pass with a D

[tiesto]

Well, I do both...

[Diunx]

Some douche bag is blasting some shitty techno song on his BB, I hope he is raped and killed today.

Now a the killers song, I hope they torture him after the rape and THEN kill him.

Your father is a trainer? This is like finding out that Arvie's mom is an English teacher.

I've had an application to a school in Korea in the works for over a month now. I've been looking for other jobs at the same time, but no one is biting, and the Korea thing is guaranteed. I start next Wednesday. If I had gotten the job I was recently applying for, I would have canceled, but I really need money at this point.

Arent there any jobs youd like before going to Korea again?

There are tons of jobs I'd rather do, but it's hard to get them in this economy. I can't even get a customer service position at a company that employs three of my college friends. There just aren't many openings. I'm going to take the time to work on my writing a lot, and hopefully I'll have a novel ready to submit to agents when I get back.

Good grief, it sounds like they sent in a hardball interviewer in the final round. Good on you for having more irons in the fire. Try not to get frustrated.

[Don Flamenco]

been studying since 11am (with some decent breaks), time for demon's souls. 

[tiesto]

Cool, my gym is having a holiday party tomorrow - it's all you can eat/drink from 8-9PM at a local pub. Should be good, I wonder if my fatass friend who never shows up to the gym will go. I asked the cute girl at the gym if she was going (she didn't know about it), then I remembered I have a g/f now.
