    oh, before i go

    shivahn

    i have started work on getting my abs back after i horrified myself with the amount of titty shake i am capible of

    i did like 30 situps (SHUT UP IT'S A START) and 10 pushups (ok yes that's pathetic)

    so i can see this summer i have a mountain to climb to meet out 6 month abs time table

    First of all

    I am capable of more titty shake than you, so don't feel bad :P

    Secondly yay! It doesn't matter how little you're doing, the fact that you're starting is important. Once you're in a habit of doing stuff like that it's all downhill.

    So yes. Yay.

    yes...

    but you want the titty shake, i don't

    i wish there was a way to donate my titty shake to you but alas there is not

    This is why we need to develop technologies for body part markets.

    The trans community would be so happy.

    you can have my titty shake and i'll take your ability to grow facial hair

    Haha

    My uh

    My facial hair is slightly damaged >.>

    i'll take what i can get

    90% of a fabulous red rainbow is still pretty good.

    wait

    no one said anything about red

    Why do you think I have to get electro instead of laser?

    >.>

    ah

    nvm

    : (

    i'm gonna look dum with brown hair and a red beard!

    Well

    I am a girl with brown hair and a red beard. So it could be worse for you :P

    Though actually it's not red, it's white and clear and red and orange and blonde and and and

    Basically the electrologist is putting a rainbow into the electric chair.

    girls having red hair is fine

    that's the double standard, men get mocked but girls are "red heads"

    Actually red headed girls are rated as less desirable in psych studies! FUN FACT OF THE DAY THAT ISN'T FUN AT ALL

    But also girls with red beard hair is a different thing altogether, unfortunately ><

    The thing is, any weird trait is going to make a person somewhat less desirable to most but much more desirable to some.

    As Podly said (probably not with your situation in mind but I think it stands) 'having a beard will disqualify you from dating some women, but with others it will let you punch way above your weight class.' In support of this, my friend is now living with his ridiculously awesome girlfriend (they have one beard between them).

    when I worked at target you were basically coerced into any lift by yourself or you were a pussy

    at wal mart nobody would lift a roll of toilet paper without supervision

    the second philosophy is far better because who knows what injuries a bad lift coudl cause ten years from now

    Unless you're a loader or unloader at Wal-Mart. Then you get to have stealth boxes come flying at your head. Or are expected to unload trucks under a certain time limit while severely short-staffed during a time when most of the truck load is stuff like heavy furniture. Or fun with hazardous spills. Or stuff loaded so poorly you're wondering how it hasn't fallen over on top of you already and all the injury concerns that come along with that.

    Just, gr. GGRRRR....

    From talking to other wal-mart workers I can assume I worked at an especially well staffed wal-mart

    we always had lots of people to unload trucks and would assist every single department until it was all unloaded

    Not for the past couple of years. I spot my dad when he does his chest, that's it.

    So you're not muscle-y anymore like in your OKCupid profile?

    I', not! I'm just thinking he should change the photos on his profile if that is the case. He has muscular photos on his profile but he shows up and he's thin, it's going to throw girls off.

    My muscles are present whether I'm exercising or not, Mim. If I were in the habit of wearing tight clothes, then perhaps the slight difference would be evident, but I don't do that.

    think i'm gonna pull the trigger on a new imac

    they're pretty sweet

    im not up on the current mac vs pc debate, so whats the big draw for imacs these days?

    they are slim and sexy and run os x

    The top of the line one also has a pretty baller GPU, the fusion drive is a pretty neat idea (which is a lot like hybrid SSDs but rather different in execution), and DAT SCREEN.

    Also, they last a long time without complaints. My 2010 model still plays every game I throw at it on near-high settings at 1080p, and the 32 gigs of RAM mean I never have to close anything unless I want to.

    So here's the one I'm getting:

    • 3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
    • 32GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 4x8GB
    • 3TB Fusion Drive
    • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2GB GDDR5

    also gonna put a win8 partition on it in case i want to play windows-only games

    THIS IS GOING TO COST $3,000!

    about that, yeah.

    i considered doing the retina mbp instead, but i just don't have that much of a need for a mac laptop right now. i have to haul my company laptop with me on business travel anyways.

    I've been considering an MBA, my little netbook doesn't quite chug as well as I want. I've been doing this hadoop training using my laptop all weekend and it failed out of a few jobs. That said it was a VM running on a little netbook so I guess it's expected for running big jobs but I was sad.

    so every time i go to a non-defense-specific tech conference of any kind, the only thing i see is mbpros and mbairs. except for the defense people, who are hauling around their dell/ hp cinderblocks

    like, that's how you can tell who is from what organization

    i considered doing the retina mbp instead, but i just don't have that much of a need for a mac laptop right now. i have to haul my company laptop with me on business travel anyways.

    Also, the Retina MBP, especially the 13" but also the 15", is in a weird place where the GPU struggles to keep up with the full weight of a graphics-heavy application.

    It is a classic example of Apple Revision 1 products not being optimal. 2-3 generations from now it will be the flagship product they want it to be.

    yeah i was thinking the exact same thing. the retina display is, i'm sure, taxing as hell on whatever gfx card they have in the thing for anything but the tamest applications. and running in non-native defeats the whole point.

    i actually had similar concerns about the new imac being the first-gen redesign, but all the reviews i read said that it had no real engineering problems.

    Yeah, the redesign didn't really do anything different aside from nuke the DVD drive, remove all the dead space inside, and laminate the screen.

    There are no new hardware considerations that would mess up the balance of power / performance like there was with the retina MBPs.

    I personally think the 13" rMBP was a huge mistake on their part; its kind of a crap product.

    Most redheaded girls I've known have been wildly neurotic, or, nymphotic.

    It doesn't seem like there's a lot of middle ground there, so, that might explain some things.

    when I worked at target you were basically coerced into any lift by yourself or you were a pussy

    at wal mart nobody would lift a roll of toilet paper without supervision

    the second philosophy is far better because who knows what injuries a bad lift coudl cause ten years from now

    Unless you're a loader or unloader at Wal-Mart. Then you get to have stealth boxes come flying at your head. Or are expected to unload trucks under a certain time limit while severely short-staffed during a time when most of the truck load is stuff like heavy furniture. Or fun with hazardous spills. Or stuff loaded so poorly you're wondering how it hasn't fallen over on top of you already and all the injury concerns that come along with that.

    Just, gr. GGRRRR....

    From talking to other wal-mart workers I can assume I worked at an especially well staffed wal-mart

    we always had lots of people to unload trucks and would assist every single department until it was all unloaded

    Between issues with stealing and people just moving on to other things we could never keep anything in the way of a staff in our backroom while I worked there (Springfield, IL Veteran's Pkwy). In the five years I worked there I was the only one who stayed on staff consistently. Plus, District/Regional management kept putting on hiring freezes because, you know, profits or whatever. People in store were generally good and fun to work with, but the demands that came down from on-high were just unrealistic. Also, the store I worked at was the oldest store in an area where there are no less than three Wal-Marts. My store, one off of Sixth street, and one off of Decatur (if you're looking at a map).

    Love working outdoors? Love working with your hands? We are looking for an individual to join our team in a local statuary manufacturing business. Responsibilities include casting, finishing, painting and loading concrete garden statuary. Must be able to lift 100 lbs and be in good physical condition. Willing to work weekends.

    but $9/hour is not much for the toll that would take on my body, also I'm not in very good shape

    Uh, don't you lift?
    Not for the past couple of years. I spot my dad when he does his chest, that's it.

    So you're not muscle-y anymore like in your OKCupid profile?

    Someone sounds disappointed

    I', not! I'm just thinking he should change the photos on his profile if that is the case. He has muscular photos on his profile but he shows up and he's thin, it's going to throw girls off.

    Alright, alright. You talked your way out of this one

    But I've got my eye on you mim

    Do you only have one eye?

    DATS NOT CHU!

    think i'm gonna pull the trigger on a new imac

    they're pretty sweet

    im not up on the current mac vs pc debate, so whats the big draw for imacs these days?

    they are slim and sexy and run os x

    The top of the line one also has a pretty baller GPU, the fusion drive is a pretty neat idea (which is a lot like hybrid SSDs but rather different in execution), and DAT SCREEN.

    Also, they last a long time without complaints. My 2010 model still plays every game I throw at it on near-high settings at 1080p, and the 32 gigs of RAM mean I never have to close anything unless I want to.

    So here's the one I'm getting:

    • 3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
    • 32GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 4x8GB
    • 3TB Fusion Drive
    • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2GB GDDR5

    also gonna put a win8 partition on it in case i want to play windows-only games

    THIS IS GOING TO COST $3,000!

    about that, yeah.

    i considered doing the retina mbp instead, but i just don't have that much of a need for a mac laptop right now. i have to haul my company laptop with me on business travel anyways.

    I've been considering an MBA, my little netbook doesn't quite chug as well as I want. I've been doing this hadoop training using my laptop all weekend and it failed out of a few jobs. That said it was a VM running on a little netbook so I guess it's expected for running big jobs but I was sad.

    My Macbook Air, which is going on two years old, has an i7 with 4 gigs of RAM. The machine is quite a beast, considering its age and size.

    I do plan on upgrading this year when Haswell comes out though. The jump from the Intel HD3000 to the Haswell GPU is going to be dramatic in terms of gaming performance... plus I want the 8 gig option for when I am shooping pixels.

    Interesting, I haven't followed the gpu options but that sounds pretty interesting. The one thing I do really like about my netbook is optimus, which is quite dope. I can play lol and sc2 pretty well, and it rarely gives me trouble which is nice for a nearly 4 year old netbook.

    oh, before i go

    shivahn

    i have started work on getting my abs back after i horrified myself with the amount of titty shake i am capible of

    i did like 30 situps (SHUT UP IT'S A START) and 10 pushups (ok yes that's pathetic)

    so i can see this summer i have a mountain to climb to meet out 6 month abs time table

    First of all

    I am capable of more titty shake than you, so don't feel bad :P

    Secondly yay! It doesn't matter how little you're doing, the fact that you're starting is important. Once you're in a habit of doing stuff like that it's all downhill.

    So yes. Yay.

    yes...

    but you want the titty shake, i don't

    i wish there was a way to donate my titty shake to you but alas there is not

    This is why we need to develop technologies for body part markets.

    The trans community would be so happy.

    you can have my titty shake and i'll take your ability to grow facial hair

    Haha

    My uh

    My facial hair is slightly damaged >.>

    i'll take what i can get

    90% of a fabulous red rainbow is still pretty good.

    wait

    no one said anything about red

    Why do you think I have to get electro instead of laser?

    >.>

    ah

    nvm

    : (

    i'm gonna look dum with brown hair and a red beard!

    Well

    I am a girl with brown hair and a red beard. So it could be worse for you :P

    Though actually it's not red, it's white and clear and red and orange and blonde and and and

    Basically the electrologist is putting a rainbow into the electric chair.

    girls having red hair is fine

    that's the double standard, men get mocked but girls are "red heads"

    Actually red headed girls are rated as less desirable in psych studies! FUN FACT OF THE DAY THAT ISN'T FUN AT ALL

    But also girls with red beard hair is a different thing altogether, unfortunately ><

    The thing is, any weird trait is going to make a person somewhat less desirable to most but much more desirable to some.

    Of possible interest: http://blog.okcupid.com/index.php/the-mathematics-of-beauty/

    As Podly said (probably not with your situation in mind but I think it stands) 'having a beard will disqualify you from dating some women, but with others it will let you punch way above your weight class.' In support of this, my friend is now living with his ridiculously awesome girlfriend (they have one beard between them).
    I guess I just don't parse red hair as a weird trait.

    Also

    well yeah, personally I don't feel like that applies to me, because my weird traits tend to disqualify me from fuckloads of people and a lot that it doesn't aren't... I'm not punching above my weight, I'm a fetish. Which is not what I want.

    But anyway, generally I agree, it's just that some traits are so mundane that it's weird how they're treated.

    Totally understandable. I was getting coffee with a French-American dude who said something like 'yeah, nobody sympathizes with my difficulty; women all think i'm attractive and good at design just because of the accent and it's difficult to actually interact on a human level sometimes'

    I get the same thing with my dialect if I go more than a couple hours away from my hometown.

    I'm not sure what benefit a macbook air would give me beyond twice the price tag

    1: If you like OSX, there is a value in it.

    2: I am going to be selling my 1700 dollar when new, now two year old MBA for 1000 dollars when the new one comes out. The resale value on Macs is a testament to their build quality / desirability.

    so you're taking a loss of the price tag of my laptop

    hmm

    compared to a two yard elf PC, which will resell for probably 25% of its original value.

    Macs hold their pricetag much longer.
