Did you ever skateboard when you were younger, Jason? I'd be stoked if the guy kicking me out of the park for doing something I wasn't supposed to was as casual about the situation as this guy was. He easily could have just called the police, but instead leveled with them to some degree.
He could have easily leveled with them without swearing, making sexual comments, endorsing drug use, and telling them he'd find their homes. He's a public employee; regardless of what you think about those issues or their legitimacy, he is still liable to maintain a certain code of conduct. He crossed many lines a public employee shouldn't.
I hope so too. I hope they paid the raise in the form of a winter home in Maui and oiled-up babes. I like it when officials in any position talk to me like an equal. I mean, let's be real here: I swear like a fucking sailor, I've made my fair share of sexual comments, and I make off-color jokes. I can't hold anyone else to a double-standard on any of those things and not be a total hypocrite.
Today I spent $35 on gas, money, food, and a collection of Bukowski's poetry. This probably means that a couple of nights out next week will be replaced with enjoying some Red Breast 12 year old pure pot whiskey (shh) and reading Bukowski. I don't know how I feel about this.

You're now a probationary member of "Disaffected, college-age, single artists who don't give a fuck." To complete your initiation and receive your official certificate and ceremonial carton of Lucky Strikes, you must complete at least two of the following five prerequisites:
1) Obtain a battered instrument or a bag of balls or sandbags. Busk by juggling or playing music. 2) Use spray paint or markers to create a thought-provoking piece of street art. 3) Request a beer list at a low-class college bar. If it has less than 20 options, scoff, smirk, and leave. 4) Attend a protest or counterprotest. Stand around apathetically and drink from a flask. 5) Walk into a coffeeshop, produce a French press, and ask for coarse grounds and hot water. Make your own coffee. Taste it at the counter, and note the flavors to the barrista with the names of woods, colors, and textures.
Also, you must find, acquire, and wear at least one gentlemanly scarf at all times.
Welcome to the club, brother. I hope your solemn moments of quiet and bitter introspection are as solemn, quiet, bitter, and introspective as ours.
Trillan Pro just went free; I'm thinking that I might switch to it from Pidgin if its IRC support is any better than Pidgin's. I'm on XChat right now, and it's kind of clunky.
Trillain 5 for Win (only one Ive tried) has decent to good IRC. But it can't do DCC worth of shit. Edit: Actually, it supports both DCC chat and file transfers and Ive seen it be done shittier, but it's below XChat for Linux.
It has ads now...? Fuck that, the old free version > "Pro" + ads. (It didn't have ads but a month ago, when it was still in beta. A beta that lasted close to a year)
