| I may have posted something similar to this in the past, but I don't recall, and it's on my mind so I'll post anyway. I am a slacker. Just for clarity, because I can not emphasize this enough, I am a slacker. I wake up, I go for my morning jog, which is a leisurely walk through the local cemetery, ... |

I take a depth breath and inhale with this exact expression... and then I hope god has mercy on my soul for whatever I am about to do.... http://i1257.photobucket.com/albums/ii519/Kjas1989/inhale_zps432f9... |

| Just realized about ten minutes ago that "The Great Lebowsky", the actual title, alludes to "The Great Gatsbny". Heard about the movie when I was ten, read F. Scott Fitzgerald's book when I was in highschool and only now I make the connection. |

| Meanwhile, living on my own would be hard because of my problems and being poor, and even my mom separating from my "stepfather" would be difficult money wise. I don't seem to have much of a system of emotional support and my psychiatrist isn't helping much. I've had a hard time getting some of my ... |

| Something damn right annoying happened to me today... As I've returned from my semi-daily shopping trip with a 75cc bottle of wine my older brother started berating me on account that I haven't bought him the bottle of Cola he asked for. My brother is about 28 years old, never worked a freaking day ... |

| As much as I agree with the basic tenets of feminism I think those who have an agenda against porn generally give feminism a bad name. Have they seriously never heard of gay porn? What about the poor oppressed little guys in midget porn?! I barely ever see women in my porn, so I have no idea where ... |

| I think it's rather nosy and invasive of privacy to raise the question in any public forum. If she does have it, it is her business, not yours. Leave her alone. I don't see why anybody should be above objective analysis and how this is detrimental to them. It's not like we're some sensationalist ta... |

Does that mean I'm finally fashionable? 8O It saddens me that this came about because of yet another bastardization of what Grunge "style" (an absence of style and fashion consciousne... |

It's nice to hear of an alcoholic arab for once. I almost got into a fight with some piece of swine manure that took o... |
