I mean it's there house so she should respect that and smoke elsewhere but there's nothing wrong with smoking.

A lot of very smart, hard working people smoke weed.

Yeah it's just my dad grew up around a lot of pot smokers and they didn't go anywhere and he became rather successful. So he has this bias against it. And it's smelling out her room, and she leaves her dirty bong on the side table. It's just disgusting.

I hear ya. You gotta keep it low key. I just started smoking again and at my parents house for a few weeks. I keep the window open a bit anyway but I take small hits and have a solid spoof. Room smells pretty good.

But yeah. I have friends that smoke cigs in their parents cars and stuff like that. Def need to have some respect in there somewhere.

Yeah it happens unfortunately. Shitty thing with cigs is that most people never quit.

If you can do it, it's one of the best things you'll ever do for yourself.

I quit a little over 5 years ago. I miss chewing while working in the park honestly, but I don't miss smoking cigs anymore.

It's tough though. I quit for 6 months at one point and started again with people at work.

Good luck.
 
Just started applying for jobs in the USA

:(

We haven't officially stopped working on my visa for Austria but it's looking so bleak at this point it's time to start. I emailed my boss yesterday and we're going to chat this week and figure it out. Either a miracle happens in the next few days or we're going to have to both make other plans.

Honestly would be pretty fucking gutted to lose a chance to work for schneestern because the austrian government hires shitty people.

Fuck

Obviously I'm hoping it somehow works out, but if not, I hope I'll be able to still find a good job somewhere. My luck at finding good jobs has been pretty rough. I've also turned down or skipped over some of the best options to wait for this job.

Not an epic situation.

Hopefully I can get in a cat somewhere or maybe snag a job in one of the better parks. Def not trying to work day crew at some beat mountain at this point though.

Fuck. Finding a good job in december is going to be tough.

Freedom of speech until I don't agree with it.

Also she grew up in my hometown in SD and went to our rival highschool...so funny seeing all the super liberal kids saying how ashamed they are and how much she hurts their feelings every time she makes a new video. LOL

I mean, she can say what she wants, doesn't mean it's not fucking retarded. Some if it is not even possible to agree/disagree with because its just bullshit.She tweeted this a couple days ago.

"Liberal logic: Let's just not use fossil fuels at all. Let's all travel/live on fairy dust. Let me know how that works out for you. #DAPL"

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. SHE EQUATED RENEWABLE ENERGY TO FAIRY DUST BASICALLY SAYING IT'S NOT REAL AND THAT OIL/COAL IS OUR ONLY OPTION. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FUCKING JOKING.

13758377:S.J.W said:
Holy fucking shit. So my sister got grilled yesterday about smoking pot at home, and in her room by mum. Saying, we don't want you to do it, if you continue to do it dad is prepared to kick you out of the home, blah blah blah. She ends up in tears because she doesn't know where she'll live in our parents kick her out. Next fucking night, she's smoking in her fucking room. You're fucking twenty two, have some fucking responsibility for once in your fucking life and stop smoking every fucking night. If you're so scared about being kicked out, then don't fucking smoke. For fucks sake. You're 22 and still smoking weed daily. Fucking get a life and fuck off.

How about she sacks up and gets a job and an apartment so she can smoke weed every day in the comfort of her own home like a normal 22 year old. JFC she sounds like me when I was 16.
 
Every person who watches the news is so obnoxious to me. I feel like it just destroys personalities.

I'd rather be politically uneducated and enjoy life, than be a PC stressed out loser.

she does have a job, it's also hard to study full time, work part time and afford to move out of home. Especially since we don't qualify for government assistance.

True. I mean it's great to be educated, but how does one become educated? It's either Fox News, MSNBC, or the interwebz...

Obviously there are some better sources out there, but they don't get the views that they need.

I'll just ski that pow pow.

Tru. Didn't know she was a student. Well then she should sack up and not smoke weed in her parents house if they don't want her to. I mean shit she can't just go take a walk or a drive aND burn a couple bowls after your parents go to bed?

she very well could. She's just a fucking idiot and thinks it's all about her her and her. Wah Wah I want to smoke in the house. She's so selfish and doesn't think of anyone else

this might be the only country where people look down on others for being informed and then act proud of being a completely misinformed boob. Congrats on furthermore pushing the "dipshit American" stereotype haha.

Being informed doesn't automatically mean you're some "cucked PC police liberal" that all you rightwing/alt-right douchers claim anyone who doesn't support your cause is. Its this type of ignorance all over the place left and right that gets us into these holes that this country continues to dig deeper. I think telling people that "education is dumb, being informed is for PC losers" is some insanely pants-on-head retarded shit to say.
 
news companies are horseshit and they all have agendas, but its downright terrifying to know people are outright choosing to stay uninformed about stuff. pretty silly, but whatever makes you sleep at night.

Honestly between a few message boards I see the news before I could if I watched the news.

Also I prefer to avoid all the bullshit. It's great to be informed but until the news stations become less shit, I'm good on that.

The news states that everyone is a terrorist, everyone will die, and everyone should stay inside. Then they mix in some stupid story from across the country about how tanya went to the park today and saw her first butterfly and how proud her mother is. Then more stuff about how everyone will die. These guys bullshit political agenda, those guys bullshit political agenda, we're still all going to die, cute puppy photo submitted by retired couple gene and marcy. Traffic is moving really slow. Bad crash on i 6969, zoom in on some dead bodies. More political bullshit.

Stay tuned for more breaking news!

Fuck that noise
 
Best news is foreign news. Read the BBC, FT, The Guardian, Times of India, etc. You get a better picture of US events, they don't feed you as much bullshit.

Best news IMO is reading a wide range of news from sources all over the political spectrum. Bias is always apparent in news and that's okay if you understand that it's there and account for it. It's generally easy to get a good idea of what's bullshit and what isn't when you get news from a variety of sources or an aggregate news site.
 
In sconnie's defense, most people my/our age think they are informed because of buzzfeed articles. And these types of people are the most annoying fuckers in the world.

I would much, much, much rather be uneducated and ignorant than be under the impression that I know something because of a source such as buzzfeed, huff post, AJ+, occupy democrats, whatever bullshit republican equivalents, etc. and unfortunately about 95% of the people I interact with fall into this category.

Very true, but most people don't dedicate more than ~15-20 minutes at most to reading the news. If I were to choose one source it'd be foreign.

If it was multiple it'd be a combo of the BBC, NYT, WSJ, FT, and the WaPo. You have the BBC for the foreign perspective, WSJ and FT for the more fiscally conservative perspective, and the NYT and WaPo for the more liberal perspective.

I agree with the first part, but that's not what he was saying, or maybe he should have explained himself a little better than saying he'd rather be uninformed and say that being educated is some liberal PC bullshit. That's just ridiculous to say, honestly.

The issue is that our current generation chooses to seek out those biased agenda-ridden sources as news. I totally get we all don't have the time to sit down and get right down to the molecular level so to speak when it comes to topics/issues/subjects of all sorts, but its not entirely possible to find information about things for what its actually worth, We all do it in school with research papers when we cite scholars/journals/experiments/etc., so why can't we all do the same when it comes to issues that effects just about any living breathing human? I think a lot of us are way better than choosing to be ignorant because we have a hard time getting down to the bottom of things. It just seems like a cop-out.

I can't remember what it was about but there was "outrage" about an "article" on buzzfeed the other day. It was on fox.

I thought it was fucking hilarious that people take buzzfeed seriously enough to A. call it an article, and B. be outraged by it.

LOLZ
 
Employment portals that require a more elaborate password than things that actually fucking matter.

A new trend is to apparently make you have a password over 8 characters that has uppercase and lower case letters as well as numbers and symbols.

Then I keep getting locked out for fucking up the password or having to get a new one emailed to me.

I'm surprised it doesn't ask for a fucking blood sample or something. Ugh
 
The fact that I always have tool failures at work is such fucking bullshit and I'm sick of it. Its gonna start hurting my bonuses eventually and make me look bad when it comes down to the tools being fucking field test. How the hell should I be responsible for shit that hasn't even been cleared for sale to customers and is still under experimentation.

Should have been an easy 2 grand bonus today and I got fucked after working my ass off for the last two days. I hate to be the guy calling the manager at 3am informing him that we're having problems at site but I get left with no other option.

This stress is stupid and unnessary and I can't wait to go to the 2-1 schedule. Now I just need to keep hitting big jobs on holidays and hopefully can vacation all my time off.
 
Had plans to go to Jackson Hole for a few days with some old friends from back home but every single one of them bailed last minute. I always have to be the one to plan things in the first place and people can never actually fucking commit to anything. It's really not that hard to just say you're gonna do something and then actually do it.

Yeah I would rather watch Mythbusters or animal planet or some shit. I get super stressed out by the news so I just avoid it now. I'll let everybody else do the arguing and protesting... whoops, is that ignorant? Oh well, Adam is about to blow up a vehicle.
 
Broke my fucking phone yesterday. I was on the treadmill and it fucking fell off of the console and landed on the tread and ended up getting stuck between the side of the treadmill and the tread. Cracked the screen, touchscreen doesn't respond, but it still makes noise and when I press the power button I can feel the feedback. Im still fucking pissed though.

But you don't have to spend an hour every night watching CNN or fox. Watching the news on tv is not the only way of being informed, nor is it the best. We don't even have cable at my place, but it takes me maybe 15 minutes daily to hit my bookmark for Google news and see what's going on in the world. Seriously, just bookmark a news aggregator, people act like staying informed politically is hard work. It really isnt.

I think the visa is officially donzeo.

On the plus I started getting callbacks for jobs in the states today. Some pretty good options as well.

Considering it's december, the time you DONT want to be looking for these jobs, I'm feeling optimistic about things.

I applied like 4 years ago but they never got back to me. Worst thing was that it was an all hand written application. Don't even know if they ever even looked at it.

But yeah might again at some point. I think I might try to go to Australia this summer if I can. I gotta use my work holiday visa there in the next few years.

When you're smoking every night at 22. Your parents have asked you to stop, or not to smoke in the hosue and you're still smoking then yeah you have a problem. For fucks sake woman, you're going into the work force next year with a degree.

smoking weed daily at 22 really shouldn't be as frowned upon, the fact she's getting a degree furthers my point. Inside the house is a bit ignorant sure but in terms of relieving stress smoking some dope is like the easiest least harmful way.

you should stop being a little snitch and grow the fuck up, your parents views aren't always going to be right. It's literally socially acceptable to smoke weed.

If you're smoking weed everyday to relieve stress then you need to find another way to relieve stress. Abuse any drug too much and it'll be bad for you. What if at her new job she gets drug tested and has to quit weed? How is she going to relieve stress when the only way she has learnt to relieve stress is through a drug?

HAHAHAHA , I need to grow up? Why because I don't want to smell weed every fucking day? I don't want the house I live in to smell like weed? Yeah I need to grow up. So if by growing up you mean I need to start smoking weed? Growing up is taking fucking responsibility for your fucking actions. She's complaining about where she's going to keep her weed and how it's so unfair that if she smokes in the house she'll be kicked out. No one is forcing her to smoke weed, it's her fucking fault. So now I'm fucking moving her fucking bong underneath the deck when our dad get's home because she's a fucking idiot, and can't take 30 seconds to walk down a few stairs and put her bong under neath the deck. For fucks sake. Fuck off kid. You sound like that fucking loser that thinks everyone should be okay with weed. I'm okay with weed, I'm not fucking okay with having a selfish entitled little brat of a fucking sister, who can't take fucking responsibility to accept her parents wishes and not fucking smoke weed in the house. Is it that fucking hard? Fuck off Kid

You're being a bit ignorant/naive.

I think your problem lies with your sister not weed.
 
so strange how you don't like a job then you get to your last day and you're kinda bummed out.

I know it's not weed. If she was smoking cigarettes and living the exact same way and acting the same way I'd still think she's being a little fuckwit. Alcohol, or any other drug I'd still have a problem with her attitude and the way she is living.
