The newest iOS can suck my balls. Why get rid of the simple swipe to passcode function? I have to physically sit here and fail the touch ID 3 times to get it to come up, sometimes it doesn't even register.
 
I'm almost done my undergrad degree but school is kicking my arse right now. A 72 hour takehome exam, major research lab report and an exam all within 3 days, with no swotvac time. All I want to do is sleep.

Bout time
 
The kids in my town are failures when it comes to trick or treating. Part stupidity part laziness I suppose. The number of kids coming around my neighborhood has dwindled to zero the past 2 years. It's the same neighborhood I grew up in and as a kid I used to get huge bags of candy. Sure you have to walk up and down some hills but practically every house has a pumpkin out front and a lot of them are prepared to give out full sized candy bars. Past couple of years it has been impossible to drive around downtown because of all the kids crossing back and forth across the street for to trick or treat at the businesses. So dumb. Businesses advertise it as safer but really it is way more dangerous to be in the busiest part of town in rush hour. If parents made their kids wait till dusk and then go in their neighborhoods they wouldn't even have to contend with traffic. Also the businesses usually have ulterior motives and are trying to sell parents crap and or groom the kids to become customers. Kids pay the price by getting less and crappier candy. Sad thing is the whole tradition is might die because why sit buy candy and sit around at home if the lazy ass kids aren't even going to come collect any loot.
 
God, I can't stand stupid, helpless people.

I work in account management and really do enjoy helping people. But when you literally can't do a single thing without me holding your hand throughout the entire process over and over I get beyond annoyed. How the hell did this lady get to where she is today (a good position in one of the top manufacturing companies in the world) by being so god damn useless?
 
Any shops that have pre set pricing filters. 100-200- 300- 350 etc.

Even if you're able to click multiples, it would still be so much easier to let me type in what I want.

Great board, unless you like stickers

Cant put stickers on it

Kinda heavy

i have not rode this board yet but i have strapped into it. I LOVE this board. it doesnt have insane crazy flex but you can press it with ease. there is a large balance point for pressing. you get to a point and you can just like hold it there. Forever. The one thing i dont like about it is the surface of the board. It is like a rough surface and is impossible to but decal stickers on. They will just NOT stick. [*] its all good because they graphics on it is pretty sweet. All in all this is a great board and i cant wait to shred it.

Was this a gift?:

No

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I think it's probably a little kid.

I just though it was funny. Reviews a board that he's never ridden. I mean he's strapped in so he has a really good feel for it.

I kind of miss the days of being so stoked on your new gear and not be able to contain yourself. I've def jumped around the living room pre season but never actually reviewed stuff I never used.

I was thinking of buying it but not being able to put stickers on it would really hurt the performance.
 
College is driving me crazy and I just want it to be over. I have one year left and it just seems like it is taking forever.

Oh and all I can think about now is skiing so it makes it that much harder

I feel like theres a fine line to walk when telling customers to tell their friends. This one guy i bought from was constantly hitting me up to tell my friends when hes got bud. it was super annoying.

yeah that's actually how I met the slimeball who robbed me violently a few years ago, so I don't like that either. I just want to find a few trustworthy guys who can handle some bulk. I've got tons of the best oil in possibly the state at an absurd price. But apparently far fewer people dab around here than I thought
 
Fuck you school I just want it to be thanksgiving break so I can go skiing. Watching videos of people already shredding pow lines is driving me fucking crazy.
 
Really smart thing to talk about on the internet.

Im not saying anyone is after you but jesus some of you people. Always great to have more unnecessary record of you doing things you're not supposed. Unless you're in Oregon or CO. But even then why?

I guess it's better than facebook.
 
People using 9/11, dead kids from heroin overdoses, some girl getting kidnapped, and whatever else to get votes.

Massively fuck all of you. I know people are generally stupid fucks that will vote for anybody if you tear at their heart strings a bit but jesus this all is fucked.

PS: 9/11 was 15 fucking years ago, can we stop using it to advance our bullshit agendas?

This dumb fucking kid is always copying my work down, and normally I wouldn't mind, but this kid recently became an herbalife salesman (for those unfamiliar with herbalife, it's basically a "miracle pill" pyramid scheme that employs dumbass 18-25 year olds). So today after he copies down my work for the 1937377273237th fucking time, he tries to sell me some herbalife pills. I politely declined them, but he kept insisting. I finally said "Jay, no thanks dude. I'm good". And this kid just starts losing his fucking mind screaming in my face, yelling shit like "DON'T YOU FUCKING BULLSHIT ME. I'M TRYING TO HELP YOUR BODY AND YOURE BULLSHITTING ME". I was completely taken aback by it, but if I had processed it in my head earlier I probably would have broke his fucking jaw. Just thinking about it gets my blood boiling.

JEsus. I though it was well known that even cutco knives(which were actually good knives at least) was kind of shady. Then plenty of other shit. Then that verve energy that blew the fuck up and now is officially classified as a pyramid scheme by the government.

But there are new ones and people still believe it? Jesus. Let's all skype call and stuff. Ugh.

That's fucked though. I wouldn't hit him as that can fuck you over hitting somebody in school these days but you can probably grab him and threaten him. Fuck ignorant people.

If you kick his ass I got $5 on your legal defense as long as there's a sick video.
 
You know what really sucks. Growing up.

I am sitting here at 2 am trying to fall asleep and all I can think about is how busy I will be this winter and spring. This really sucks and I am sure you all know why. A lot less skiing. Maybe none. That's why. If I was still a young 16 year old kid who didn't have responsibilities or work or school then this would not be an issue but now that I am older and have all of these. It really sucks. All I wanted to be was older and have a job but now that I am.

It Sucks.

Not even sure if I can afford a season pass or even get my moneys worth this season it sucks so bad.

Man what I would do to be a kid again.

I find it's harder to find time to get your money's worth than to actually buy the pass. In high school I would ski 60+ days a year, incredible for where I live. Now I average about 30, shit sucks
 
Holy fuck sometimes the owner at my job is a cunt. I sell surfboards and men's surf gear. So someone asks for sunglasses once they're done buying some tshirt sand I'm like yeah I'll get someone else to give you a hand this isn't really my department and the owner is so pissed at me.

All the time, it's not as bad down in Manly, since we're in a richer part of town. But you still have kooks. I don't mind kooks, it's the guys who think they know everything that are the worst.
 
You'll never know true frustration than when the police tell you "there's probably nothing we can do about it."

No fucking wonder so much crime goes unreported. If I would have known that "there's probably nothing we can do about it" then I wouldn't have wasted my fucking time.

Bull fucking shit.

they never do anything, sadly. I had neighbors growing up that harassed me and my family for years (basically until me moved out of state) where we filed numerous court orders and restraining orders and they still proceeded to fuck with us. They violated them on numerous occasions and we kept hearing the same shit: "Give us a call if it happens again and we will take action", yeah well they never did and we basically had to live a fuckin childhood in fear of some psycho white trash folks watching our every move, their kids harassing/bullying us for no fucking reason, and just never really ever feeling comfortable in your own home.

its probably even worse if you're a woman/minority in this country. its quite unsettling and unnerving how most shit never gets taken seriously, and its partly why we have a culture of people who shame victims of crimes and the shitlords walk away scratch-free.

Oh hey. This happened to me too. I had to block numbers and record the harassment. What are NY's law as about cyber bullying? I even rally went in with a stack of papers to the police departmrnt to show them that I wasn't fucking around and wanted to press charges against people.

You need to physically go speak with a different officer.

Man what I would do to be a kid again.

One thing to thing about. You will always look back on your times past as "look how young I was then" or "if only things were like they were then".

That keeps moving along. Every spot you're at feels like "I got this, I feel somewhat old, I know everything". Then you look back it's it's like woah.

Basically in 5 years you will look back on this time as being young and able to do anything.

I'm not wording this very well but I'm just saying don't stress too much about it and try and enjoy yourself as much as possible. Also don't forget that there are always good times ahead and you will always be younger than the future.

I totally feel you though. I remember all the time I had. Maybe it was the energy as well as the lack of responsibilities. Could keep up with all these different sports, play all these different video games, ride my bike places, there was so much time. Even the summer was like "Wow look at all this time!"

The clock starts to speed up every year. I'm only 27 now but things that feel like they were last year were 5 years ago now etc. It's fucking crazy.

I'm just hoping my health holds up and I can make as much sense of this crazy world before I'm old as shit.

Good luck and hopefully you get some windows of time even in school where it isn't total madness and you can enjoy yourself a bit.

I became friends with another skier at my school this year, but he is turning out to be one of the cockiest, ladies boy, posers I have ever witnessed. I should have known from the day I met him... he rides atomics, leaves his sticker covered roof box on top of his car year-round, worships Bobby brown, and 50% of his vocabulary is "sick!" Or "buck nasty!". 40 year old rich racer dad in the making.

Somebody has to teach him that liking every chick's Facebook pictures is never going to get him laid.

wait a minute i never take my stickered rocket box off

13609497:-frosty- said:
Why can’t restaurants get the restroom right? This is really bugging me. I’ve been in some very fine restaurants that do so many things right... right up until someone has to use the restroom.

Although no restaurant restroom has risen to the level where I wanted to go there because of the restroom (“Hey guys, let’s go to Joe’s. The food is iffy but the bathroom is to die for!”), there have been times where it definitely added or subtracted from the overall experience. I will try to highlight what I consider some common mistakes as well as what makes for the best restroom experiences. I’m most familiar with the mens room and, except for those unisex restrooms (more on that later), the women’s room is a mystery for me and I want it to stay that way. I have a vision of a comfortable place where women go to “freshen up” and don’t do any of the things usually associated with a bathroom. I’ve been told that is not the case, that it's just like the mens room, but I’m going to keep believing it is different and there’s no telling me otherwise. With that being said, on to the restrooms.

First, the ideal restaurant restroom. Being a germaphobe, the ultimate restroom experience will be a “hands free” experience. In a perfect world, you would not have to touch anything when using the public restroom. This not only includes the obvious (toilet seat, handle and various knobs) but even the less obvious, like the door. To me, touching anything in the restroom should be avoided at all cost. To be honest, I’m not even too keen on touching myself, so touching something that someone else has touched after they might have touched themselves sort of freaks me out a bit. Unfortunately, to have the whole hands free experience you need a really big place. This is to accommodate the entrance to the restroom. To go without a door, one must have some sort of maze-like entrance that uses a lot of space. I acknowledge that only the very largest restaurants (or airports or shopping malls) have the necessary space for this setup. Once inside however, the technology is readily available where any profitable place should be able to go hands free. There are sensors that can flush toilets, dispense soap, turn on water and dry hands or dispense paper towels so you can not only dry your hands, but can then use the paper to open the door (if you must have a door) on your way out without having to touch it with your bare hand which otherwise just made moot every other hygienic precaution you have just taken.

I actually skipped an important step on the way to the restroom. Before you get into the restroom, you must first find it. Most places have their restrooms “in the back” somewhere. Easy enough you would think, but here’s a bit of a dilemma. The restroom should be easy to find yet be out of sight of diners. If you are sitting at a table anywhere in the restaurant, you should not be able to see inside the restroom. The ultimate sin? To somehow make eye contact with an actual toilet while dining. That can be a game changer. So, where should you place the restroom? Down an obvious hallway is good place to start. Some classic mistakes? I should not be able to chat with the dishwasher through an open door to the kitchen while waiting for the restroom. Food should be nowhere in sight and certainly not within reach of a bathroom even if it’s in a can. I know it’s kind of trendy to stock bales of semolina flour and cans of imported Roma tomatoes in places where customers can walk past and think to themselves “I like that they use top quality ingredients...” but please, not near a restroom. I’ve actually seen cans stacked in the restroom. My only hope is that it was meant as some kind of Warhol-like piece of art and never made it onto a plate.

OK, you’ve found the restroom, or at least think you’ve found the restroom when you come across the most egregious error in the world of restaurant bathrooms - signage. This seemingly most simple of things has done more to confuse me more than anything else associated with a restaurant restroom. Why do so many restaurant owners insist on making a trip to the restroom a game of pictionary? Is it really that difficult to stencil a “men” or a “women” on a door? Maybe include one of those international figures of a man or a woman. Listen folks, I’m just trying to use the bathroom. Now is not the time to get cute. I should not have to try to figure out if the wood carving is Sir Lancelot or maybe Lady Macbeth. Do I use the restroom with the picture of the mermaid or the one with the sperm whale? I’m not even sure what gender Medusa was. I know it's a French or Greek restaurant but I can assure you, if we're actually eating on U.S. soil, most of your customers do not speak French or Greek. Thankfully, Chinese and Thai restaurants recognize this and almost always go with English. Although women tell me that it wouldn't be the end of the world if I were to accidentally walk into "their" room, it would be for me. Bottom line, please put an easy to read sign on the door. Thank you.

OK, so the place isn’t big enough to go door-less but you managed to put the restrooms down the hall or behind some sort of screen. So far so good. Everything inside is up to par (hopefully hands free) except for... the trash bin. Really, how difficult should this be? First, could you please place the bin near the door so that I can open it with the paper towel (not touch the door) and then throw it in the trash without having to make an NBA 3-pointer? I rarely make that shot which segues into my next pet peeve: how often do you find the restroom trash overflowing with paper towels? I will now pause while you think of the two possible solutions for this problem... (I’ll be right back. Cue the Jeopardy theme music in your head...)

I’m back so let’s see if you came up with the same answers as me. First option: get a BIGGER trash can. Pretty simple, don’t you think? Second option: EMPTY the freak’n trash when it gets full! You can slice and dice and chop and saute and grill and poach but you are unable to get a grasp on the trash container in the restroom. Inexcusable.

Next on the list of common restaurant restroom miscues? The lock on the door. So we’re in a “cute” (e.g. small) bistro that has wonderful food but only has room for two small, one person, restrooms. I understand we might not be able to put in all the latest hands-free gizmo's that I really like to see but, come on guys, how about a decent lock on the door? Once again, I’m a little weird about this stuff as I’m the type of person who locks the bathroom door when I’m alone in my own house. One of the worst things I can possibly imagine happening to me is for the restroom door to be flung open in a crowded restaurant exposing me to dozens of diners who, I can assure you, have now lost their appetite for even the finest of fine food. Am I the only person who has nervously used a restroom while propping a foot or hand against the door? I’m sorry but the little button on the door knob doesn’t cut it. Neither does the small hook that I have to get into the even smaller eye that was screwed into the door post and might just be strong enough to keep a light breeze from swinging the door open. For me the ideal lock is something you would find on a medieval castle. You know the one I’m talking about - the kind that requires 30 or 40 strong guys using a 100 year-old pine tree battering ram to break open. Being that such a lock might be extreme, I’ll settle on a compromise - a good solid lock, or better yet, two. Maybe the lock can incorporate some of that new airplane or Grayhound bus technology which shows whether or not the restroom is “occupied”?

Lighting. Once again, this should be a pretty easy one. First, more than one light bulb please. This way, if one were to go out, I can still see. Next, how about enough wattage so I can really see what's going on in there. It's the bathroom for goodness sake. I’m really not looking for any kind of ambiance. Then there’s the light switch. Now, I’m a green kinda guy, really I am. I recycle and turn off lights when I leave a room but there is very little that creeps me out more than to have to feel along a wall in a dark public restroom for a light switch. Please have a light that stays on all the time - I know it might waste some energy but it's really so little compared to the peace of mind it gives me in return. If you want to be really cool, go with the motion sensor lighting ($14.95 at Home Depot). Anything. Just don't make me have to run my hand along the wall.

Finally, the unisex restroom. The ONLY time this is acceptable is when there is only one restroom in the building. If there are two, make one the men’s room and the other the women’s room. What’s the big deal you ask? This is the big deal: I walk into the unisex restroom and find the toilet seat has been left in the upright position. My first thought is “this is good, one less thing I have to touch” but then I realize that there might be a woman waiting outside the door. What is she going to think of me when she finds the seat left up? My women friends tell me not to sweat it as they never actually sit on the seat in any public restroom regardless of how clean the place is but I don’t believe them and have been programed for 50 years to “always put the seat down as there may be a lady using it after you”. What started out as a positive (me not having to touch the seat) has now, due to the unisex nature of the restroom, become “well, I have to lower the seat” and... you know what happens next, don’t you? The seat is, let’s say... not clean. As there might be a woman waiting outside the door, I am now in the position of having to CLEAN the seat because “what would she think of me if I didn’t” even though I had nothing to do with the lack of cleanliness and it would be very awkward to engage in such a conversation trying to explain this fact. I have now gone from enjoying a (sometimes very expensive) dinner with my wife to cleaning toilets because the restaurant has decided that “...we should be avant-garde and go with two unisex restrooms because I saw that in Europe last summer.” The real irony is that I don’t even clean the toilets at home as we hire someone to do that so the only place where I find myself cleaning a toilet these days is usually in an expensive restaurant. How weird is that?. I’m all about equality but please, please, please, separate restrooms.

There you have it. A few rules to follow to make the restroom experience as pleasant as possible. Does anyone else feel this way or am I nuts?

You should write a book
 
I'm all for the relaxation of language but I draw the line at "member".

Idk. I think I hate that more than axing somebody questions and things being ratchet.
 
One of my favorite comedians just got banned from performing at our school because he wasn't PC enough for these overly sensitive social Justice warriors. I mean, come on. If you can't take a joke then DON'T GO. Don't silence someone just because you disagree with them. the comedian was Bill Burr btw
