I hate how Canada is taking the backburner on all these high tech releases. I was supposed to have a fancy iphone 4 this entire summer, now I have to wait until the end of September... [bleep] COME ON LET'S GO! [bleep]ING FRANCE IS MORE ADAPTIVE THAN US WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY not to mention we pay the highest cell phone and internet bills in the world. gaaaaah.

Starcraft 2 :thumbsup:

I get way too bored driving an automatic and start doing stupid things, so in my eyes manual is much better. They're cheaper here in Canada too, about 1,000$ less than automatics for any car.

That's sad, I hope you're okay. Could've just as easily taken a longer way to school. But yeah, that's exceptionally rough. :sad:

I don't understand how people can have 1,000+ friends on Facebook. It's not Myspace... One girl I dated had 1,500+ friends (now 2,000+) and lots of them were creeps from other countries writing perverted [cabbage] on all her pictures. Needless to say I spent a hefty one hour untagging session of myself to ensure I won't get raped when I visit Lebanon or Turkey :roll: Seriously. I can't take off my headphones without hearing girls talking about a "creep" that's bothering her on Facebook, yet they have them added as friends. :wall: Silly girlssss

I plan to work full time (already have for about a month), "court" a couple of lifeguards (I am slowly de-vulgarizing my language for tip.it), read a lot of scientific papers and books, work out tons and finally, blow all my cash on beer and girls that I "court" :thumbsup:

Is it a problem because you regularly make out with him and it's irritating your skin? Or did you also take the oath, making you a chowderhead (you only grow beards for hockey playoffs, and mustaches for prostate cancer awareness, nothing else)

It has to be your friends. Close friends, like the people you go out with the night before. If you're all hungover the next morning, everybody's on the same level when you all go to the gym. I have many friends that go to the same gym as me but I only go with a few, the others have different schedules (when I say differing schedules, I mean they're hungover at different times than me) and only go once a week. If your friends really don't want to work out then drop subtle hints that will make them insecure about their body. It's not too hard :thumbsup:

I had to read that book in 2 weeks so I could do a presentation about china vs western europe. It was rough. I agree that his wording is a bit strange, but after reading The Third Chimpanzee and GG&S, I find I can "scan" his sentences in his book Collapse and know what he's talking about even though I don't actually read the phrase. It's fun when you have thick books to read.

Yep, it was someone here, I remember it. My friend has a full bottle of that stuff lying around... we each had a drink and never opened it again.

Hmm... apparently I get to do research for my undergrad degree, anywhere in the world and get paid for it. Everyone I know would be ecstatic about this sort of news and start planning on leaving immediately, but I don't know. I find it extremely elitist to invest so goddamn much money in a student and not in you know... important stuff. We have plenty of universities in my city, and unless I'd need the LHC for my research (which I won't) then there's really no point in leaving. I honestly could not believe my ears when they were telling me how much the university and government spend on outside of the country research like this. Or I could acknowledge that by accepting this offer I would be a dirty elitist and then later see how living with that nagging thought will feel. But it goes against so much of what I believe in, I doubt I'm going to tell anybody about this except you guys (I'm only modest in real life :mrgreen: ).

Back in the days when I worked at Subway I'd almost always giggle when someone would walk up to me and ask for a 6 inch.

You all deserve nothing less than a painful death on the stake. I definitely remember playing a game with my elementary school buddy where we'd keep out eyes sealed shut for half an hour and have fun looking at the light show that creeped out of the darkness. I don't think that's synethesia though.

Collapse by Jared Diamond can put anybody to sleep in 10 minutes but I will finish it! I also recommend Life Ascending by ______ for anyone who's curious about the origins of life and it's filled a lot of fun evolutionary inventions.

Dear professor weapons, the point of this thread is to show what EXERCISE can do. I probably have the worst diet in the world and *hardly* take any protein powder, because for my entire life I have not gained weight even though I would try consuming more. I'm trying to show people like me that if they simply have to hit the gym 3-4 times a week for a few months and they can get pretty jacked. It's well and good to discuss what the healthiest diet for your lifestyle is, but I'm reading the same stuff in every thread here and it's making me snore. Go do some push ups.

Thanks fellow Canuk :mrgreen: Yeah the shirt is the smallest I can find, I don't fill out all my clothes like that haha. The protein question is a good one. I only started taking protein powder (rarely) recently (haven't gotten through my first tub yet) and so the middle picture is my progress without sups. And I personally think that supplements won't help you get THAT much stronger, they just put on weight. The main difference I noticed once I started taking protein was that my ribs disappeared and I'm now almost normal waist size.

Don't we have Monday off since it's a national holiday or something to do with the Queen? I've always assumed I had next Monday off, if I find out I don't im gonna be angry

I wanna say Danielle Lloyd...? At any rate Danielle is super hot and deserves a mention

I just had a really vivid dream of me dying in a car accident. It was so realistic that I wouldn't be surprised if dying really was like that. Don't get me wrong I die all the time in my dreams, but this time I actually accepted my death (after reading a book on evolution, sorta changed my mindset on things) and I was able to focus attention on all the physical changes which made the dream so vivid. I don't remember a last breath, only a last heartbeat, blood pissing down my arm, half of my friend's head, and then darkness. Then I woke up.

HAH it's the voice actor for Enrique on King of the Hill. I'm probably gonna watch the movie as a spin off of the show, making it doubly awesome :thumbsup:

Better? Nope. The first picture she looks like a porcelain doll. The second picture she's got a weird haircut. The third photo is at a peculiar angle. Are you kidding me? Her dress in picture 3 makes me want to rip it off with my teeth and then... [nautical term for a fast boat, equipped with a motor] all night long. And she doesn't look like a doll in the first picture. She looks like she's about to do whatever she wants to who she's looking at, good or bad, and that's just... fantastic.

When applying for a job/at an interview the goal is to get the job, so you really have to sell yourself. I have *SO* many friends that believe you have to be modest and let the interviewer figure out you're good enough for the job, and *NONE* of them have jobs. Yeah, you shouldn't care if you come off as a show-off or someone who's full of bologna. That's sorta the point of an interview. Would any of you do what I did to the following question? : "Why do you want this job?" (it's a job that requires lots of physical activity) So I think a little, then start telling the interviewer that I go to the gym at least three times a week and that I want a job that is so demanding that I get an advantage for being so fit. And as I'm saying this I'm rubbing my arms "nervously" to show the interviewer my biceps ect. What does she write down? "Beaux bras a.k.a. Nice arms". Sure it's cocky and you feel like you've violated yourself, but it definitely works (that's actually my current job) :cool:

You morons seriously don't know who Scarlett Johanson is AND don't think she's hot? Get out. :arrow:

Good lord assassin, that's insane. In case you aren't sure how hard that is because you've never rowed before: I personally feel like shooting myself after 1000m, and doing 2x1000m usually makes me vomit. I've never gone above 2000m in one session, because I'd rather not die really :mrgreen:

I live in Montreal, the greatest city in the world, and I like it :) I was strolling along downtown the other day and thought "Holy [bleep] there's a lot of chicks in this city" (me, a guy who has been accustomed to good looking people being everywhere all my life). That and even the enormous immigrant population is as into hockey as everybody else, it's amazing <3:
