one of the guys who did a chong drawing (there's this guy chong who is asking for drawings of him right)

sends me a friend invite. picture of dude standing in a junk car lot.

dude is an artist. he has got those artist eyes.

and he's surrounded by dead cars. none wheels on them, all grounded.




some people are like, dude, cars




what i see is


ideas



some ideas that people had where they could just use something

then leave it as a piece of shit

that peice of shit is their idea. the idea they had about how the world is - a mechanism that you can use to do something, then just leave it like shit.

because that's how their world is, and they want to fit in, to do well.


the artist looks like... challenging you, challenging you to not need a mechanism.

challenging you to have an idea that doesn't leave things like hunks of shit. challenging you to have an idea that doesn't end in a piece of shit.

and that's how i see it.


walk, people. it's actually good for you as well as everyone else.

Waiter, I'll have whatever he's smoking! :smokeit:

So I got a job at a supermarket and I'm surprised at how chill it is..pretty cool people there and I'm not as nervous as I thought I'd be.

It fucking sucks when the groceries get backed up on the belt though..that shit is like when toilet is overflowing and it just freaked me out the first few times it happened.

you're the don

i knew a guy who had some engineering degree and career.. still did two nights a week at his old market job because retirement and benes can't be beat.


you get to see the whole community and learn about shit no one else sees. if you gotta have a job in the industrial era, food chain isn't a bad place to be..

may not see it yet but you have hit gold in the contemporary society.

So the funny pictures thread got closed. It appears someone was offended. Are you kidding me? You cant post a word or picture without someone being offended so are you going to close every thread? Lighten up a little Francis. I'm sure this post will offend someone.


I truly believe that we are the most whiney, sensitive, thin-skinned, easily offended society in the history of the world.

Nobody has ever been as prolific at getting offended as we are.

Nobody cries over insignificant nonsense as loudly and consistently as us.

It’s the one thing we seem to do better than everyone else on the planet. We corner the Offended Market, and it’s not even close. Modern Americans love to get offended more than we love eating Cinnabon or talking about our fitness goals. If it was an Olympic sport, we’d grab the gold, silver, and bronze every year. If it was a job, we’d all be millionaires. In fact, we have turned it into a job, and the people who do it professionally are millionaires (Al Sharpton, etc). It is our calling card, our national pastime. It is the battle we fight and the banner we wave.

We get offended faster and more efficiently than anyone. And it’s not just our speed that separates us from the rest — it’s our endurance. We have a limitless capacity for offendedness. Every week there are dozens of new national outrages and boycott campaigns and social media crusades to raise awareness about some offensive thing, or to get someone fired for saying some offensive thing, or to teach people that some previously non-offensive thing has now become offensive.

Most of all, I find myself positively dazzled by the dexterity and athleticism with which we get offended. We can juggle six or seven outrages all at once, and then drop them and pick up new ones in the blink of an eye.

Our creativity and meticulousness are also quite notable here. We can look at any situation and extract hundreds of offensive factors that an untrained eye probably would have overlooked. We conjure up more fabricated outrages and controversies in a month than past civilizations could have mustered in a thousand years.

Do you remember what everyone was super worked up about four weeks ago? Yeah, me neither. That’s the point. We move on to the new outrage so quickly and the old ones are buried and forgotten. Well, whatever it was way back then, I’m sure it was REALLY bad and we were REALLY upset.

It’s always something. We have located the Fountain of Eternal Indignation, and we drink it by the gallon. Walsh.

word of support for "unnamed seed retailer"

unlike most cos that don't try to piss people off, this "guerilla" co. promoted themselves by distributing stickers and asking customers to post them in ....interesting... places...

not that i support vandalism of anything created with care.. but i liked the spirit of defiance and antiauthoritarianism the compo inspired..

..and the bloody prizes... people are sticking the stickers on police or army vehicles or historical stuff... and maybe they're sneding old stock or somethnig? because they keep posting these prize pics and they've got over $100 worth of half a dozen seed packs plus gobs of ..stuff..


this kind of generosity could destroy the foundation of crappy ungenerous civilisation!

anyways i guess they're having a load of difficulty now, but i wanted to give them props for inspiring people to challenge the power.
