    Rave: Just watched Zombieland on demand. Liked it quite a bit. This line fucking killed me: "I'm not great at farewells, so, uh...that'll do pig."

    Rant: I hate me. I don't want to go into it, because no one wants to hear me whine about bullshit, but suffice to say I'm an idiot.

    Rave: Homebrew is done. Delicious, and strong!

    Rant: This is the first time since I can remember that I am drunk and there isn't a weekend drunk thread for me to post in. Guess its sad that it has been that long since I have been drunk on a weeknight (not including the Christmas/NYE holiday).

    Rave Within the last month I've bought a new (used, but new to me) guitar, mattress and box spring, Iphone and tickets to see Tom Petty, the Levon Helm Band and SIMON AND F'NG GARFUNKEL!

    I don't care how gay that makes me, Simon and Garfunkel is going to be awesome!

    Rant What am I, made of money?! It looks like my future tax return will go towards paying off the credit card... hopefully I can squeeze a new tattoo out of the $$$.

    RAVE: SIMON AND GARFUNKLE!

    Rant: Going with my best friend (woo) and his shitty girlfriend (boo). His girlfriend is the kind of suburbanite girl who doesn't even drink or party like other rich white kids because she's even MORE boring than usual. Her facebook textbox used to have the words "Live fast. Die Young." which is the most ironic credo ever delivered when you consider the boring moron stating it is in actuary school and has no plans to move out in the next ten years. After we called her out on her text, she got mad and changed it to "Live slow. Die old." in bitter protest.

    Rave: I'm not a suburbanite loser. It makes me feel good knowing this.

    FUCKING RANT: I got down to the gym earlier and got on a treadmill. I put my towel over one of the handlebars, and put my ipod in the corner where you put drinks and stuff next to the display. About a half mile later, I look down and see that my ipod is sitting in about half an inch of water that must have spilled out of someone's water bottle that I didn't see. I grabbed the ipod, dried it off, and got rid of the water. 30 second later, the screen on my ipod doesn't work. One minute after that, my ipod simply stops working. I am so pissed I don't even know what to say. I've got it in front of the space heater in my office right now, but I don't have too much hope.

    I want to fucking kill something right now.

    Rant: Fantastic Sams put each hair cutter's "monthly goal" and "Month to date," on the mirror in front of the individual chairs. Listed was the dollar amount, down to a cent, that each person earned/sold or whatever.

    As a matter of principle, I try to reward good service/business by frequenting that business in the future. After5catalog gives me exactly what I want, cheaply, and delivers it quicker than expected. I now check there first for all gift ideas (doesn't hurt that all my family are unabashed alcoholics either). One time I had to order some pet medicine for my rat terrier and DrugStore.com sent me a package of small breed dog treats as well. Guess where I check before I even head to Walgreens?

    What Fantastic Sams did, I hate. It's not even a big deal, didn't effect my haircut at all, or my wallet. But what they did created unnecessary, avoidable feelings of ill will on behalf of the consumer, toward the company and their service.

    I don't give two shits about my haircut (unless it costs over $15), but as a matter of principle, I won't go back to them. Great Clips it is; next it WalMart.

    Rant: Fuck you airline companies. When i have product shipped throu an airline company, not a courier like dhl, but an actual airline company, i want my product now, not tomorrow, and i really dont want it the next town over(1.5-2h each way). You guys are so lucky that this isn't for a broke down piece of equipment stuck on the railway tracks.

    Rant/Rave: As of today, I now work 3 full time jobs.

    Yay for money, keeping busy, and all that. Yay for two of those three jobs not blocking my favorite internet sites. Yay for one of those jobs serving me lunch every day so I don't have to buy my own.

    But GodDAMN I'm busy. And tired.

    RANT: I can't get enough of that "Bedrock" song by Young Money. God dammit... I also caught myself not hating a Justin Bieber song that came on the radio. Fuck me.

    ???: What the fuck is Ludacris doing in a Justin Bieber song?

    I need to find a new radio station to listen to.

    RANT: My ex and I got into a massive fight, which culminated in him wishing an unplanned pregnancy on me. According to him, if I end up pregnant via his weak, pussified sperm, I'll have to take him back. I informed him that if I found myself up the duff, that there was a better chance I'd be taking a rough trip down the stairs than reuniting with him. After that, he hung up on me. Crazy motherfucker.

    RAVE: Condom plus birth control pills. There's definitely no Bebe Jr. in the making.

    Rant: My hotel didn't have Spike TV last night so I missed the first episode of UFC Primetime for GSP-Hardy. Scoured all the usual sites that have MMA videos and I can't find it anywhere. Any help?

    Rave:
    Quick meetings and early flights got me home 6 hours early today. Awesome way to start the weekend.

    Rant: Holy shit. Life long friends were here for coffee about two hours ago. We were going to go to their place for dinner tonight. They left, we get an alarming call that they've been in a bad car accident. One of them is currently in the hospital in bad condition. What the fuck.

    Six tickets in hand for UFC111. Spending time in New York city before the fight and Atlantic City to gamble afterwards. I haven't been this pumped about a trip or a fight in a long time.

    Rant My wife and I have been going through IVF and she had her eggs retrieved yesterday.

    Up to this point, my sperm count was good. But when I had to donate for the big day, it was close to zero. The embryologist said it was because of the Effexor I had been prescribed a year ago.

    This was prescribed by my doctor after I had warned him that my wife and I were going to start a family and I didn't want any adverse effects.

    Google Effexor now, half the results are about near zero sperm counts. Thank God it's temporary.

    Fuck him. I'm considering reporting him for this and if it hadn't been a verbal exchange, I would have considered suing him for the $20k the IVF is costing me.

    I should have known, he was hawking his wife's health drink at my physical.


    Anyone think I'm overreacting? I'm already going to talk to the physician that owns the practice. Is there anyone else I should report him to? I've been going to him for about 2 years, and last time I went to see him, all he did was feel my abdomen and say I was good to go.
