being in with a group of friends that hates facebook really does have its percs.

Thank god I'm not alone.
I can just see somebody sitting there. HURRRR HUUURRRR HEEEE HEEEE "I have a friend names thomas. I'll tag him, it would be so funny"
It's even better when it's pretty much the same thing going around with different names.

I'm not sure what you're saying.
Since I'm bitching about facebook again
I also hated the shift in 09 ish maybe where everyone was starting to build up these pages to post stupid shit for dumb people to share.
And now facebook started doing the thing where your news feed is full of stuff that people simply liked or commented on, as if 99% of that is relevant.
Oh yeah but facebook has it's "top secret algorithm" they won't share.
AKA, If you accept a friend request you're obviously best friends and will see everything they post 3 a time even until you unfollow them. Also, you commented on somebodies post 1 time. Clearly you're best friends and will see everything they post from now on.
Man, I'm sure everyone really want's to get their hands on that amazing formula.

It's amazing that there are enough stupid people to do it with a slight prompt. And the people who's pages they are know that people are fucking dumb, post stupid shit, and rake in the page traffic and likes or whatever they want.
Ugh.
If I see one that says "Tag a friend named mingg" I'm fucking tagging you though

I know right? Its getting fucking ridiculous. Its all just generic shit I don't need to see. And I cant get rid of it either because its my buddies who are doing it. My feeds fucked with "so and so friend has tagged other friend with generic name".
I'd post an example but im too lazy...
13764172:theabortionator said:
If I see one that says to "tag a friend named the abortionator" I'm tagging you too.
low key though, there was a boy who came to jamba juice (where I work) and when i asked for his name he said MING and I was like damn i have a boy name but was also hyped to meet another mingg. Just follow a chinese page and you'll be tagging me in everything hahahahaha.
brb gonna go follow a ton of pro life and pro choice pages to hopefully come across something about the abortionator.

Word. I still have one but mostly because I'm terrible with cell phones and need to let people know when I inevitably lose it in the snow or smash the screen. Not gonna lie I'm a sucker for a hilarious meme though. I thought it was weird being sort of an "internet guy" lurking on forums and such when memes started popping up on social media and not just forums lol.
13764604:Bodhisattva_ said:
Memes are fine but I hate people that just share stop that's posted to be shared. Also the page names of everything for a while were super retarded.
Bob shared "Hot pickle farmers from northwest alabama" 's picture. Idk I can't even think of stuff as ridiculous as they were.
I keep unfollowing but it's still taking forever to weed out the bullshit.
I use it to network and find peopl to chill with/places to stay when I travel. Also people want me to post pictures so I try to post some pictures on there for people.
Facebook had like 1 year where it was pretty solid. mid 07-08 ish. When it started to get more popular but peoples creepy parents weren't trying to add you.

I can't believe how many of my little brother's friends are prescribed adderall, it's actually insane. I take it every once in a while to help with studying but I always feel pretty shitty afterwards, and I just can't believe these 12 year olds are taking it every day. I get that some of them probably have ADHD but come on, they're just kids, and I feel like its not fair to be messing with their brain like that at such a young age. I feel like now its just acceptable if you have a middle school aged kid now that's kind of annoying (just like all fucking middle schoolers ever) you can just get them an adderall prescription to mellow them out. Imo that's fucked.
So last night someone's car alarm was going off in our back parking lot. I made a status complaining about it. My roommate comments this morning and says it's her car and the plow guy hit it and that her bumper was damaged. But the car wasn't her car (i looked out my window last night and saw the car with its lights flashing and it wasn't hers). I looked outside today and her car is not damaged at all. Her car is also on the street and the car going off was in the back parking lot... lololol.
I realize this is stupid to get irritated about but I'm at the point where everything she does pisses me off. That's also just a stupid thing to joke/lie about hahahaha.

No shit facebook, I know what NYE is.

The neighbors that just bought the house next to the one I bought were snowblowing at 4 am. I know you probably gotta work and it snows a lot in leadville but have some fucking common decency like maybe just shovel when everyone is sleeping and snow blow at a more common time. And the light on that fucker shines right at our bedroom window. Nice people but for Fucks Sake.

Another fucking roommate rant because I don't get how people are so godamn lazy.
My bf's roommate is mind blowingly dumb sometimes. Sure, she has a job so she doesn't have endless amounts of time... But I have a job and am in law school, my bf has a real job and then spends his spare time working on the house, and yet we still magically have more time than her to clean because her spare time is spent watching netflix and taking naps. While I don't mind putting in the extra effort to clean the shared parts of the house, seeing as how my bf owns the place and she just rents a room, the least she could fucking do is show some respect and lend a hand on the most BASIC shit. See the recycling is getting full- how about instead of balancing your stupid muffin container on the top you take it out on the way to your car? Using peanut butter, syrup, or jelly- how about not leaving trails of it all over the clean kitchen? Want to use our pan to cook your eggs- how about you actually CLEAN it before putting it in the drying rack rather than leaving it greasier than a cheeseburger and calling it a day? We've already had to talk to you about this, how is it that fucking difficult to remember

Woooooooww. Held a 97% test/participation grade in this class but my group did such a fucking shitty job on our project that I only ended up with a B+ in this class. Are you fucking kidding me? What a load of fucking bullshit. "Everyone gets the same grade for the project because in the real world your team will either succeed or fail." Fucking cool. Good thing this isn't the real world and in the real world I wont be working for a company that hires lazy pieces of shit who don't care about anything and if they do they get fired. Seriously so fucking stupid.
I did 80% of the project on my own, even got them a fucking extension to finish up 20% of it between the 5 of them and they couldn't fucking handle it so now we all got shitty grades. I did the entire presentation practically by myself other than saying their names for them. Fuck this shit.

I mean, I get it. It forces you to work together and when that actually does happen, the same grade all around does make a lot of sense. I get that sometimes you'll work with people that are not easily compatible. However, this wasn't the case. They simply didn't fucking do anything. It's unacceptable. I appreciate what the lesson is supposed to be but this is straight bullshit for me haha.

Rap music isnt music anymore.
here we go.
I've been thinking this all day. My friends have been trying to get me into Kodak Black or Lil Uzi or some shit. I just don't get it. Call me old but where the fuck did the art go? It just seems like if you mumble over a snare drum and tweak your voice with auto-tune then you got a hit song. Oh and make sure you talk about how gangster you are and how many xannys you take. I was trying my best to listen to a soundcloud playlist my friend made for me and every song I listened to just made me more and more pissed off. I miss the actual rap where you actually wrote several bars that all had a deep meaning or had a funny punch-line. Then said them on beat with different flows.
I also say this while listening to Diablo by Mac Miller. Sooooo....

My girlfriend is going into the army and I have to work out whether i am going to stay in my college town and get a house and job, or live at home and get a job during the summer.
The owner of my home ski hill is making me sick to my stomach. $80 lift tickets are unacceptable in the Midwest. Dude keeps changing the terrain and closing chairlifts for no reason. None of the existing chairlifts can stay running consistently and the hill is severely understaffed because he won't pay liftees more than $7.50 an hour.
Charles Skinner can eat me, fucking bitch. Ruining what was once a great hill. If I could just get my hands on that old bastard I would strangle him. I'm so upset.

A lot of hills in the midwest from experience have super old lifts that are prone to breaking down. Interested to see what vail did with wilmont cause they pretty much always have atleast 2 lifts down.
13766289:crotchvent said:
I can only speak for my hill, but the reason our lifts haven't been updated is because there is no reason for a high speed lift on a 400 foot hill. It's just not feasible/necessary. So they keep the old lifts. I'm going to guess there's a similar mentality for the small Midwest hills as well.

im not saying get a high speed lift but having lifts that are constantly broken would be nice

This guy is worse than Vail. You wouldn't believe how bad he fucks over the local skiers.
13766289:crotchvent said:
Except that these are brand spanking new quad chairs that nobody knows how to run. They are consistently broken down.
13766325:B.Gillis said:
I know several people who work there. Wages have been the same for >10 years despite inflation and the terrain park is being cut back. He closes chairs during the week so the locals don't get to ski 80% of the hill, but everything is open in time for the weekend warriors. $80 is a joke, I wouldn't pay that for most western resorts.
13766349:Sconnie said:
I can't speak for any other part of your post.
However, I was a lifty at my local hill two seasons ago. The reason they close lifts during the week is because they can't afford it. This was a small hill so it just didn't make sense financially to keep everything open all the time.
On the weekends they open everything up because there's enough people there. And it makes sense to do so, with more of the hill open there's less congestion/lines etc.
On the price issue, we pay $80 too. It sucks. I would never pay that but that is why I would buy a season pass. Costs of running a resort are high no matter how many or few people are there. Ya gotta do what you gotta do to stay afloat. /:

This man. Since i started working at homewood i realized just how much shit goes on behind the curtain. Pretty close with a couple of the higher ups and its pretty much a shitshow most of the time. Its really crazy to see just how much it takes to run a mountain.
13766358:Mingg said:
this as well. It costs sooo much to run lifts all day...especially when there is no revenue coming in. There are a multitude more lifties you have to pay, more patrollers you have to pay, more energy into the lifts, more groomers you have to run, more trails you have to mark etc etc etc.
some hills just cant afford it, and that would explain the price jump, they need the money

Diablo is lyrical wizardry. Great track.
But I hate this opinion. It's okay to not enjoy the music but don't disrespect the whole genre. There is tons of awesome rap still coming out, just because the Atlanta trap scene is what's popular right now doesn't mean it represents the whole genre. There is a ton of rap coming out both mainstream and underground that lives up to the expectations of hip hop snobs.did you hear Pete Rock and Smoke DZA's album that just dropped a couple weeks back? Fuckin classic sound. Action Bronson has bars, Casey Veggies and YG put out some classic west coast bangers this year... Chance had an awesome year, List goes on and on. That's just a couple of the more mainstream releases from this year. Also I understand not enjoying the content of the music you listed and I am personally not a big fan of Kodak nor Uzi but can't deny they put out some bangers and I am a big fan of 21 Savage's sound as well as Future. And I hate the term "mumble rap" nobody mumbles. Future does have a delivery that blends together and the way it is mixed makes it sound sort of jumbled but def not mumbling. If you take the time to seek it out there is a lot of good music to be found in hip hop.

How come this sounds so fucking familiar. Any chance this said room mate comes from Berlin is around 20 and has a twice as old boyfriend? Doesnt even clean her shit? Always "busy" (aka. laying in her bed and watching Netflix or spending dads money) or "tired from work"? Kitchen and living room would looks like a junkyard if you aren t cleaning it regularly?
Well if yes, thats my room mate. Welcome in the "I have lazy ass room mate who has no healthy sense for cleanliness" club.
I began seperating my kitchen stuff, like pans or pots from hers. So I have a clean pan whenever I wanna cook and not have to deal with a half rotten pan. Even worse: She s eating yogurt out of cups and doesnt wash them in the next days or even weeks.. This whole glass turns into a terrarium. More biodiversity in your sink than in the fucking everglades. Fucking disgusting.
I think quiet a few peeps here on NS made similar experience too...
