The "How Was Your Day?" Thread

[TheOnly]

So 2 weeks ago, I ordered 2 Mopar parts for my truck, they told me that I would have it by 1 week. The week later I decided to check my bank account and they did not charge for the parts so then I decided to cancel since the service with them sucks. At the start of the 2nd week I decided to order the new 360 model and paid the whole thing. The NEXT day I find out that I owe the bank 400$ because the idiots I canceled the parts with decides to charge my card and I was complaining to them and they were like "ummm, once you place an order on a part(s) in the Mopar brand we can't cancel the order", am like, "Man, damn fiends". With that, just messed up my plans that I had for the week, some crap...

For the past two days, I've had a strange mix of Snoop Dogg and Metallica stuck in my head.

They fit together well, strangely.

[Vinchenz Rock]

This summer sucks.

But I'm getting a house!

[ChaosVortex]

This summer sucks.

Ditto.

I'm finally in a Bachelor's Degree program for Exceptional Education.

But geezedoesthisdumbcollegetakei t'ssweettimeImeancomeonseriousl y...

[AlexThePenguin]

Yesterday, no work because of a migraine.

Today, I went to work, left two hours later with ten bucks in my pocket, and am told that I'll be called later for tutoring.

I've kinda needed some time off, so I guess this is good.

[Snare]

AMG, YOU GUYS.

I finally found out what I'm going to take in College! I'll be movin' away to Ottawa and I'll take Horticulture (Which covers botany and entomology!). So I'mma work this year and rack up some money and AWAY I GO.

WOOOHOOO.

FLOWERS ARE PRETTY.

[Johncarllos]

Pft, how narcissistic.

[AlexThePenguin]

Aww, yay!

Our Snare's off to college! They grow up so fast.

[Speed Racer]

We all know you're just going to learn the best methods to grow marijuana.

[Snare]

But I wanna learn about pretty flowers.

Awesome, which Ottawa also is.

Which college are you going to, BTW? I need to know this stuff if I want to become a professional internet stalker but also maybe because if we go to the same college that would be cool[/size=1pt]

[Snare]

Algonquin. :T

[Vinchenz Rock]

Well, #####!

See ya in a year!

[Snare]

Oh good, you can pick me up a few housewarming gifts... I'd like a new bed and a couch.

Thank you!

And paint my walls too.

I bought this cool portable Servbot ball/bobble head toy online!

I just got this cool portable Servbot ball/bobble head toy today!

I assembled this cool portable Servbot bobble head toy today!

I made this cool portable Servbot bobble head toy bobble today!

... It turns out it doesn't really bobble all that much.

Also, the thing is about half the size of my fist. Why did it come in a package large enough to fit 20 DVDs?

[ASR]

Oh hi just another regular day doing stand-up open mics OH WAIT NO IT'S NOT



LOOK WHO DECIDED TO SHOW UP AS A SURPRISE

[Johncarllos]

Alec is either drunk, holding his breath, or needs to stay out of the sun.

And who?

[ASR]

Sunburnt. Been lazing around on my YACHT as of late.

And it's Aziz Ansari, you knob!

[Chron]

I just looked up his wiki.

Who?

[ASR]

Seriously, you guys? Human Giant? Parks and Rec? Funny People? The MTV Movie Awards?

[ChaosVortex]

No bells.

[ASR]

I seriously can't believe you guys. Aziz is near the top of my list for "Amazing People I'd Absolutely Love To Meet In Person." I'm floored none of you know who he is. I know it's not just because I keep more obsessive tabs on the comedy world because ALL of my close friends (and the not-so-close ones) know who he is. Even my DAD knows who he is.

Shame on you, Matrix. This was a huge deal for me. I performed on the same show as  Aziz Ansari, and all you guys have to say is "Who?" Pssh.

Posted on: 21 August 2010, 00:26:24

On and in more movie-star-related news, while driving around Grand Rapids with a friend today we stumbled on the set of the movie that Aziz was in town filming. The movie is "30 Minutes or Less." We got to stand right on the edge of set and watch the crew do their stuff, we watched them shoot two separate shots. Very cool. We were standing right by Jesse Eisenberg, who you all know from Zombieland, Adventureland and the upcoming Facebookland.

[ChaosVortex]

It's kinda cool I guess, but this is really nothing special coming from me, seeing as I don't really have a problem with becoming detached from celebrity media and such.

It's a coincidence that we all don't know who he is, but the funny part is that I've never even HEARD of the movies you mentioned. But like I said, coming from me, that's nothing special.

[ASR]

I just can't imagine living in your mind. I practically live for the art of film and television.

[Chron]

I can't imagine being in your world of worship to no-name comedians and terrible movies.

But being different is good for you!

[ASR]

I'm the differentest!

[Vinchenz Rock]

LOOK WHO DECIDED TO SHOW UP AS A SURPRISE

I showed my sister this pic and was instantly jealous.

I've never heard of him but she's pretty obsessed with the comedy world (almost as much as you I'd say) so I knew she'd recognize him.

[Snare]

So, figures the second I find a course I want, there's talk of it being phased out... In favor of programs like video game design (VINCH IM GOING TO KILL YOU)... I have to wait until October to find out if it'll still be available for next year.

I know there's not a tremendous amount of students enrolling in horticulture (well, that's a lie, the program is wait-listed at the moment, meaning it's pretty much full)... I think they should give it more time, the garden industry is a rising business.

I think it's safe, though. But I'm still anxious as hell cause seriously, this is my course it was made for me.

[Chron]

I wonder if you'll come out of your course the same Snare we always knew?
... or a horribly mangled Snare we don't want.

Agriculture is IN, though.

[Snare]

ME NO WANT AGRICULTURE THOUGH!

I just read that the course is safe, they're just removing the on campus greenhouses I think... Still, I blame Vinch for this.

VIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINCH!!

[Vinchenz Rock]

VIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINCH!!

Not my fault my course is better than yours.

srsly we really needed a lot of changes in our course

[Snare]

I'm so going to eco-terrorize you by growin' a lot of triffids that'll beat you up. >:T

Oh well, it's not a competitive field at least, and it's apparently it's extremely easy to find work after completing a horticulture program. I just want it to be October so I can see what the hell they're changing.

[Johncarllos]

Triffids!?

Will they first blind everyone with a meteor shower?

[Chron]

I thought they opened with [Bushbasher].

[Snare]

Yeah they'll do all that. John, they'll spare you, just cause you know, you're cool and all ( ). As for you, Corm, we'll see...

[Johncarllos]

:'D

[Chron]

We'll see, indeed.
If you succeed I can finally take on my true calling and become a gourmet hunter.

[Majikn]

I'd rather become a gourmet hitler

Hitler likes spaghetti and only spaghetti.

[Chron]

Sounds like a fussy eater that needs to be put down with extreme prejudice and a lot of phoenix balut.

[TheOnly]

IN OTHER DAYS! Its rather HOT in California for the past week or so, like, 110-120temp. hot, even the breze that passes by is hot...

[Johncarllos]

Gross. It's 75 in Maine right now and it's a bit warm.

[TheOnly]

Lucky, I could sure use that right now. XD

[Chron]

75F... warm?

[Fatso]

Pleasantly warm, even.

[Chron]

No, no, ten degrees warmer is warm.
75 degrees is just pleasant neutral air.  Indoor temp.

[Johncarllos]

Yeah that's like 55-60 in Maine.
50 degrees is flipflops and shorts weather.
60 degrees is swimming weather.

Anything over 90 is sickening.
Always humid in the summer here, too.

[Snare]

I agree completely... I don't handle heat gracefully at all, I'm more at home in the cold.

[Chron]

So am I but room temp is still around 75F.
When it's 55-60F here, it's beautiful, but it's also very humid for much of the year... and it's been worse this year than any other  August is usually pretty dry, but the humidity has constantly been over 80% for quite some time now.

If things keep this hot I may never put pants on all winter.  Shorts, yes.  Pants, no.

[MOX]

66 degrees today in California  . Could be a little more humid though. (has a humidifier in room)

[TheOnly]

Them weather ppl said it was gonna be stupid hot today too, glad that wasn't the case.
