Beer is the Reason: girl below isn't the world record holder!!!


So get this, even though the 14,000 texts a month is pretty bad, it isn't as bad as this one girl (14) who did 35,000+ texts a month for 2 months! Seriously, what the hell do they say to each other? lol (send) omg(send) bff(send) lol (send)???? But get this, even THAT isn't the world record. The world record belongs to some guy named Deepak Sharma with 180,000+ messages a month. You got that right, 180,000+ texts a month. Like how do you do that? Does he have some type of Homer perpetual motion device that will hit send for him every 5 secs??

Beer is the Reason: 14,528 texts in a month?!?


http://i.gizmodo.com/5130854/teenager-tallies-up-14528-text-messages-in-a-month

Goddamn 13yr old girl, that's alot of texts!

As the article on Gizmodo says,
A 13-year-old girl in California racked up 14,528 text messages in just a month, which calculates out to 484 a day and 20 an hour.

Just what the hell are you texting that's so important? Actually don't you have school or sleep? STFU!!!

Beer is the Reason: Bwahaha! Twilight!

Beer is the Reason: for Twilight? Love this post in a twilight thread, love the below webcomic. Made my day. :D

"Now that I think about it, the vampire romance is pretty much one of the archetypes of female desire: the changeling. Many women want a man they have to "change", a bad boy or independent thinker for them to neuter and enslave. So I guess in a sense the chubby goth girls ARE the vampire hunters... only they don't want to kill the vampire, they want to drag him to poetry recitals, antique furniture auctions and hot topic at the mall. They want the danger of the fangs but then they want to rip the fangs out and replace them with nice capped teeth.

I'm going to have to look twice from now on... perhaps the next time I pass a hot topic and see a forlorn looking emo guy sheepishly following his goth hog around the store I'll know that was once a vampire."

Beer is the reason: naked skier!


One reason why snowboarding is superior then skiing, you don't get stuck in these embarrassing situations. Ooooo the shrinking ski pole!

Beer is the Reason: BLUE MOUNTAIN 5X7!! WooT!

Blue Mountain.
5 day weekday lift pass, 7 day night lift pass.

Helmet: check
Goggles: check
Gloves: check
Jacket: check
Snowboard boots: check
Snowboard: check
Snow pants: ??? not check.

I've been emphatically been told that I MUST buy windproof, waterproof snowboard pants. I suggested jeans with nylon cover, like I normally wear when skiing, but was shot down. MUST. BUY. SNOWBOARD. PANTS.

Beer is the Reason: Frankenstein ain't far behind

Adult stem cell research looks to be giving a new lease on life for cancer patients. Using the techniques as described in the linked article, the procedure makes sense. Instead of having major invasive surgery to remove a lung, doctors prepped a bronchile tube seeded with stem cells from the patient and replaced that small offending part instead. Now she has both working lungs and is on her way to full recovery.

Next on the agenda is the realization of the three breasted(or was it six breasted) woman from that Arnold movie about mutants on Mars.

Beer is the Reason: SNOWBOARD!!! IT'S IN THE GAME.


For many years winters have come and gone and I didn't really pick up on any of the sports....until this year. I watch ice hockey, I enjoy analyzing ice hockey but I don't play ice hockey. Maybe because of the fact I don't go ice skating often, averaging about once a year, but I signed up for ice hockey school in the summer and I now play in an adult(beer) league. I may be the crappiest skater out there since I can skate forward, turn and somewhat stop....which is limiting for someone playing D. The other teams probably hate it when I'm on the ice since I also play dirty (hooks, stick lifting) push them around under the pretense of going for the puck and I will level an opposing player if they're skating towards me with their heads down. Averaging about 2 hits a game and the refs can't call me since they're "clean" accidental hits. Suffice it to say I really like playing hockey and I should have started earlier.


The second winter sport actually I can't blame on anyone but myself. I did go snowboarding a few years back and I liked it. I even bought the helmet then because I was intending to take it up. Well I procrastinated and filled that void in by playing SSX, SSX Tricky, SSX3, snowboarding video games. A few years later and you know what I said to hell with it and bought a board and boots. After that I joined the group Torontosnow.com, a dedicated group of people who ski and snowboard and are looking to just have fun. No more excuses, time to hit the slopes and carve it up. I'm hyped and excited.


And I might meet some sno bunnies. :p
