DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BE SOMEONE’S FRIEND WHILE IGNORING THEIR ACTIVITIES WHICH CAN BE EASILY VIEWED ON ANY OF THEIR INTERNET PRESENCE.
One of my friends has been doing this. My friends and I will send him XBL messages while he's online asking if he wants to hang, and he'll just never respond.
Silly boat, you can't play Footy. You don't even have feet.
More coming after I sort through what I got.
Edit - Shit, I nearly forgot - I finally picked up some film for my crazy old east German camera. How old? It's from 1967, which means it predates the completion of the concrete portion of the Berlin Wall, let alone it's fall.

I know some hipster film kids who would murder to shoot on an old camera like that...for a month. Then it'd be way too mainstream because they'd tell EVERYBODY about it and they'd get sick of it.

Well, I've got a little spare time. If they want to try for some murder, they can feel free. Bring their friends, make an evening of it - they'd need something to even the odds.
As for the story of that camera, I picked it and a telephoto lens up from a Secondhand shop for five pounds in perfect condition, because the lad behind the counter knew nothing about old cameras, so I basically fed him a line about the camera being half fucked and needing to repair it, take apart the telephoto lens to repair it, replace the wiring, and re-grind the lenses. It's fucking beautiful, built by hand, not a scratch on it, weighty, tough as nails, still works perfectly. The only downside is the lack of onboard flash - which I can remedy, since it has a flash trigger output on it to enable you to use external flashes of that era - and the fact that I have to buy film, not just clear a memory card.
Also, another thing your hipster friends might kill me for - Today, I was wearing Keith Richard's Sunglasses. I don't mean "In the style of" I mean, literally, a pair of his own sunglasses.
They belong to a friend who used to do sound production work, and richards gave them to him because of an offhand comment about how bright the sun was, and how he forgot his glasses - keith just handed his over and said "fuck it mate, i can afford ta spare."

They're film students, don't care too much for sun glasses or old British people. And they're more likely to whine at you for the camera than actually do anything physical.
So, recently Rush Limbaugh was (unsurprisingly) a complete racist regarding what untranslated Chinese sounds like to him. This in turn sparked a BoingBoing discussion positing the question of what other cultures emphasize when they mock English. This video turned up from Italy to answer the question, and it is totally awesome:
That's pretty cool actually. What's funny is that there have been several attempts by various English speakers on the internet to get other non-English speakers to do imitations of English, even if it's gibberish. This video really makes English sound like the Germanic language descendant that it is too. Also, Rush Limbaugh is an ignorant belligerent bigoted racist shitstain.

Also, 7 Dwarf's Mine Roller Coaster... WITH SWINGING MINE CARTS.
The video is not of the highest quality, but the dance and the fox combined with the music makes me nostalgia the 90's so hard.
Also in that vein,

Oh, and the Arthur Conan Doyle Estate has approved and signed off on the first fully authorized and licensed canonical Sherlock Holmes novel since the last Doyle stories were released, and the first fully canon novel not written by Doyle.
I haz excitement.
BTW, your link has redundant http://, fyi.
