we have several products for our "frequent flier" club that remove the whale dung smell off one's foreskin. So to speak.

Oh, Max/MSP for sure.
And if you really want a change, a "brain holiday", buy yourself a copy of Renoise.

3 years - and we share a house.... life's a bitch.
I'm being psychologically waterboarded every day and I'm sharing a room with a cat litter tray.
So - what do you reckon? Binge in the pub until she moves out? Buy a couple of ounces of herb and retreat into my room? Get back into Max/MSP? Buy an Xbox and get a Dominoes menu? All of the above?

marijuana doesn't kill brain cells. not allowing the monkeys in the study to have oxygen with the mass amounts of smoke being shoved down the other end of the mask kills brain cells.
why you gotta make the man feel all old n stuff?

ironic that he talks about pot smoking as childish yet has a child's understanding of pot.
agreed, that study was done in 1956 by a Dr. Nestas. google it, I'm not going to provide a link from work.
breakups really suck, at first I thought this was a divorce with a home involved. just collect your shit and move out. make sure the apartment's deposit is split up and you two divide your shit up equally. don't put up a fight over petty crap, just walk away.
yeah, be glad it's over. once I found my wife I realized why other relationships didn't work out, it was so simple in hindsight. I'm glad the other ones didn't work out.
do whatever you want, just don't sit around feeling sorry for yourself, this is a good thing. go find out what it means to be you and only you. I think you'll find it refreshing. with that, I leave you with...

heh - I'm old enough to know that stoned pizza munching video game binges aren't always a good idea
(that said - CODMW2 11.11.09 FTW!!!)
I just keep churning out filthy noise-core tunes with stupid samples.... they make me smile. If it wasn't for music production, I'd definitely need an industrial quantity of nebulae's hand lotion....

ah I remember breaking up with an Ex in November maybe 15 years ago. One of the most romantic miserableness's memories ever of walking about, headphones on playing some old trip hop, standing on top of a hill alone watching fireworks with a tear in my eye. anyhow, that was when I was a nipper.

i remember splitting up with someone on the trans siberian express as it trundled through siberia. getting away from her by getting off the train wasnt really an option as er...it was in siberia. so i still had to share a cabin with her until it got to moscow. that was a sodding long journey.

That would be a couple thousand miles of me trying to convince the girl to have break up sex. If it didn't work it would at least amuse me how annoyed she would be by my constant rationales as to why this is a good idea.
Break up sex is weird, worth trying at least once. Just don't get convinced if it's good that the problems aren't that important etc.

single guys have every right to get pissed when married guys give advice about single life. some married guys on here are totally macho about dating, gimme a f-ing break.
but... for me it's the ability to absolutely trust the other person and truly let shit go. sometimes you're just wrong, even when you don't know it and never will. sometimes the other person can completely fuck up but you truly don't care. that kind of trust and respect will get you through anything and makes life a lot easier. the rest of you can piss off.

did i come off sounding pissed?

i wasn't being sarcastic at all.. it's just nice to hear someone else's perspective.. I agree with the absolute trust thing and being able to let go.. for me with my current GF, I am able to do things that I usually don't do in front of other people and just being me.. i can do my crazy off beat dances and be a kid and not be judged by it..

no, you don't sound pissed in the least bit, you seem like a very happy individual. it was just a respectful shout out to the single guys out there in the trenches before some married guy tells them how it is. I totally respect the path of the single guy it's not easy.
