America's got talent

America's best dance crew

American idol

edit: I dont get television at all. Why do you need it when you can torrent just about anything online.

because online takes work.

i don't get how people can watch hours and hours of television all day and everyday of the week. its cool for entertainment to get your brain off of heavy shit for a moment every now and then but not for life.

I don't see how it's possible to not find Prince creepy as fuck in the present day. Everything I hear about the dude is wack and he is about 30 years too old to be singing the songs he does. Plus when you're a Jehovah's Witness and preach that shit to others while living in your own luxury cocoon of a life it strikes me as fucked up.

Skinny jeans? For just guys or both?

I could eat cilantro fucking plain.

You know, a breakfast burrito doesn't by definition contain shitty cheese, get off your fucking ass and make your own (no hate).

I don't get a lot of mainstream entertainment.

This. This is how I feel about Rick Owens. I don't know if I'm alone (proably more so on sufu) but I don't really see the appeal of a $185 tank top or gauzey t shirt. Other stuff I can get, but the basics just seem ridiculously overpriced. Do people really have that much money? Also whenever I look at pictures of Rick shows it all looks pretty retarded. Is he a marketing genius and can sell $185 tank tops, or does he really think that everything he makes is amazing. I don't get it.

you've gotta think of it this way most (not all) retailers go by the 2.5 mark up rule. a tank that goes for $185 could be brought for $75. That $75 has to help pay for Rick's designers, pattern makers, factory workers, fabric, studio, electricity, etc.. Then the mark up from the designer to the retailer, in this case $110 has to pay for the sales staff, managers, owners, rent, electricity, etc.

yes there is a major gap between what it's made for and what it sells for but look at all of the mouth's you've got to feed in between.

vegas, not so much the city but peoples fascination with it and proclamations that they can party harder there, i've been and i'll be the first to say, ny, chicago, and LA go way harder than that overgrown brothel

^YES!

I've only been to vegas once but I was like "what's the fucking appeal!?" It's one strange place. HUGE overgrown hotels and a single long ass street packed with people, but you walk two blocks off the strip and it's like tumbleweed-land.

It's just surreal in unexpected and annoying ways. Like there are no real banks, just ATMs which charge $5 fees and only dispense cash in $100 increments. Even the big big casinos felt tawdry to me. People EVERYWHERE handing out advertisements for prostitution. Just bizarre.

ehhh, im not quite sure you know what you're talking about. i'm assuming at this point that you've either never flown into vegas or you were sleeping through at least 12 minutes before landing because if you were awake and near a window you would have noticed a perimeter of life/civilization flanking all sides of the strip that stretches the valley from point to point for miles and miles.

growing up there was pretty much the same as doing so anywhere else. kids didnt live off of dead coy-otes and point and stare when outsiders came from not their parts. all the suburban standards were there, available in the more well-to-do areas. it was just all so much newer considering about 65% of the population was a part of the massive influx of people that came to live there in the 90s.

i've grown weary of all of the stereotypes after three years of college in a different city. "you live there? is that even possible?" yeah bitch my mom strips after she drops me off from practice where we use tumbleweeds as soccer balls and my dads an elvis impersonator with ties to the mob. fuck outta here.

I did notice the sprawling suburbs, I also noticed that many of them were empty/only partially built. I was staying at the red rock so I had plenty of time to see the stuff outside the strip itself.

It's still a weird place.
