  1. im guessing when and why it was created. all i got was something about london and queen victoria and then i got bored of reading it.

    julz is right. it's basically the story of creed. comes with every bottle in the language of whatever market the bottle was meant for.

    I know, cause I ball in the frangrancez dep, son.

  2. I don't get the point of torrents, if you got Soulseek, Are a member of some good messageboards, and know how to search google/google blog, and visit some good blogs, why are people stuck using old 2005/6 technology? IS there something I am missing? Cause all the things I listed update as fast, if not faster than torrents.

    for some people, it's not necessarily about how fast shit leaks.

    I have soulseek, am a member of a couple decent boards, know how to search.

    But I still use private trackers 99% of the time.

    Why? File quality, community, full album downloads with art, vinyl rips, huge back catalogues of good shit, just to name a few reasons.

    It's just a matter of preference, though. I can see why people use blogs or slsk exclusively. It just don't float my boat, brah.

  3. i had a pretty awesome chill day in san francisco today with one of my best friends.. had brunch at absinthe, picked up macaroons at paulette, shopped around, kopped a pretty killer helmut lang jacket (with a barney's homie hookup!), went to the sondre lerche concert.. and got to meet him and take a picture with him. i have no intentions of studying right now.

    he's a geniunely nice guy.

    used to live down the street from me.

    always nice to see good people doing well.

  4. this is more asking questions than answering anything, but>>>

    why are you running 3x500?

    is this your only training?

    what goals do you have? to lower your time on these intervals? be in better shape generally? work your way up to a long-distance runner? run a marathon someday? be a fast sprinter?

    why do you run?

    and yes, smoking is bad for runners. fucking duh.

  5. Veyron has made a lot of sacrifices to be the ultimate top-speed champ. It's not the well-rounded livable supercar that the McLaren F1 is and pretty much sucks at everything aside from going stupidly fast in a straight line.

    If I were in the market for high-priced mid-engine exotics, the Veyron would be last on my list.

    This is what Gordon Murray said...and then he drove it. He still doesn't think it beats the F1, but then, he designed the F1.

    It's a solid piece of engineering.

    Jeremy Clarkson drove it from Italy to London. Clearly it satisfies this arbitrary liveability requirement.

    But it clearly isn't meant to be the "main car" of a household. It's not competing with an Audi A4 to go grocery shopping in.

    If you said it was too electronic or "soulless" like newaesthetic, I would get it. I don't agree, but I would "get" the criticism.

  6. Don't cook for your friends even if it seems like a good idea at the time. Meal for 4 friends = 4 meals for you. You probably don't like them that much anyways.

    I'm kind of drunk right now.

    that's because you're doing it wrong.

    get 5-6 friends together, pool cash, go shopping together at a nice market (you know, like a real one, not a supermarket or an organic rip-off joint like whole foods). cook for them. it's a nice sunday outing and you should be able to eat better for the same price because of increasing returns to scale.

  7. I don't know, that one doesn't seem that bad to me.

    Except this fool always insists on putting crazy raf hitops in every fit, with no regard for how it works with the fit.

    You like raf, we get it.

    Now do something that works.

  8. veyron sucks ass big time.

    but the quattroporte is a very good car. there's 2 in my neigbourhood and i'm drooling each time i see those guys riding it.

    Why Veyron sucks?

    Even Gordon Murray had to semi-recant when he drove it. Every review I've ever seen has loved it. Just talking looks or what's the story here?

    Just interested in hearing your opinion since you clearly seem to have one.

    (and yes, from the limited experience of just having been a passenger in a qporte once, I'd have to say it's an amazing machine).
