One of my best friends got the Marc Ecko X-Wing pilot jackets for Christmas. It's actually pretty sweet.

Oxycodone and Oxycontin are different though. Oxycontin is much stronger and is a brand name prescription that many people sell illicitly.

Oxycontin? I'm sure you can get pain relief for afterwards. I doubt they would give oxies for dental work, but who knows.

I do carry around a pair of relatively crappy earbuds for when I'm in the library or walking around.

Vozvrashchenie (The Return) 2003 Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! A move about two boys living with their mother and grandmother in a coastal Russian town. Their Dad appears out of nowhere after being gone for twelve years to take them on a fishing trip, testing their manhood at every juncture. One boy wants more than anything to have their Dad love and accept them, the other is filled with bitter contempt for their father. I can't say enough about this movie---so good!

Same here. The only brands I see at my school are Beats, and the generic Apple or Sony earbuds. I see so many people walking around campus with Beats or Skull Candy headphones. I usually just chuckle a little to myself. I have a nice pair of Audio-Technica's that will never see the outdoors. It's about listening to high quality music, not a fashion statement. Unfortunately, most people don't get that.

And the Wild are on a turd of a streak. Sweeeeeeet.

I started reading the book Legend by David Gemmell. I received it for Christmas from my younger cousins. We usually send each other science fiction/fantasy novels every year. I've never heard of it before, anyone ever read it?

Gladly guilty as charged :P

"Perhaps our descendants will regard our present ignorance with as much sympathy as we feel to the ancients for not knowing the Earth went around the Sun. If the general picture, however, of a Big Bang followed by an expanding Universe is correct, what happened before that? Was the Universe devoid of all matter and then the matter suddenly somehow created, how did that happen? In many cultures, the customary answer is that a God or Gods created the Universe out of nothing. But if we wish to pursue this question courageously, we must of course ask the next question, where did God come from? If we decide that this is an unanswerable question, why not save a step and conclude that the origin of the Universe is an unanswerable question? Or, if we say that God always existed, why not save a step, and conclude that the Universe always existed? There is no need for a creation, it was always here. These are not easy questions. Cosmology brings us face to face with the deepest mysteries, questions that were once treated only in religion and myth." Some days I very much doubt our species, but Carl Sagan never fails to renew my faith in humanity.

I'm in the same boat. For the first week of my winter break I scheduled extra hours at work just so I could stay at my own apartment. I came back the day before Christmas Eve and now I'm leaving again on Thursday so I can be with my friends for New Year's. I also volunteered for more hours at work next week so I have a legitimate excuse to get the eff away from my hicktown hometown. The plight of a college student, I suppose :lol:

The Bothersome Man (2006) Interesting Norwegian film. Short, sweet, and to the point.

Gift cards ya big dummy :P

Filling out my passport application :thumbup:

Getting drunk with my best friends from high school and watching the Packers STOMP da Bears. My friend is a Bears fan so you know he has issues, one thing I hope Santa left him today was plenty of tissues. :shades:

[spoiler=fakeitormakeit2] Here's a tip: Run like hell. I've been with a girl who was seriously depressed before and let me tell you, you will never be able to solve any of her problems no matter how much you try. The only person who can solve the problem is the person who has the problem. If she's burned you once, she will burn you again. Volatility in either you or her will only lead to a relationship that is volatile. It's the hardest thing in the world but steer clear of her man, no matter how much you love her.

Lighten up ya damn cretin! Negativity will rot you from the inside out.

Merry Chrimbus everyone. And remember, wear your gloves or mittens so you don't get the bite!

Silly Americans, stuck in the past :shades: Touche....touche.

Silly New Zelander, it's Christmas Eve! :shades:

Seriously...ya'll are a bunch of hipsters on this thread. And Jeff looks like he's contemplating eating that rabbit which totally negates any cuteness the picture may or may not have.

My aunt got me cologne from there once, but there's not one near me so I have no idea what it's like. Stuff smelled good though.
