QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 04:29 PM) Ha I wish. The relationship I've been in with a girl for just under 2 years has essentially come to an end. It's been hot and cold for about the past 6 months, but we've never really fought. It was mainly a matter of me being a huge POS for pretty much the entirety of the 2009 calendar year while she was actually being productive and becoming a legitimate member of society. So I had a bit of a revelation that I needed to step up and make changes, and thus far it's been great for 2010 - joined two very good business oriented organizations on campus, I'm looking for a job, and scouting out some internships. She told me last night that she wants to pursue another guy before she takes off to see if anything can bloom and the only reason she's really been hanging out with me is because she does still have feelings, but she wants to see me get on my feet more than anything, and she didn't want to hurt me. I told her that you have to hurt people as it's an inevitability in life, and I gave her the go ahead to try and get with this other guy. I don't know if he has feelings like that for her, but he may. Needless to say, I hope he doesn't, but it's out of my hands now. First true love too. Ouchers. Maybe it just wasn't meant to be. Keep your head up.

Cub fans have always played up the "loveable losers" crap. So they get more attention.

They're the better party at pointing a finger and saying "oh! oh! you messed up! you're awful! I can't believe you did that!" But when it comes down to actually coming up with a solution/answer, they have no unified goal. They have differing philosophies that the inner circle can't agree on. Pelosi, Reid, Clinton, Obama - none of them want the same thing, and none agree with each other on the best solution to any problem. Hell, they can't even agree on what issue is most important at any given time. As unintelligent as everyone wants to paint the Repubs, at least they have (generally, on important issues) a unified vision of their principles. They just have a hard time communicating that message to the masses. The Democratic Party has no idea what to do. The left knows exactly what they want. The problem is that when people think of the Democratic party they think of the left. Which is wrong. I'd say 75% of the Democratic party is moderate or close to the middle The left or progressives are just as mad at Obama and the Democratic party as the right is. Thats why I find the whole "Obama is a socialist marxist" crap so funny. Go to the Socialist USA Party website and you won't find "I love Obama" shirts. Same goes for the right. Most libertarians or objectivists aren't to happy with Republicans.

It looks like an iphone for giants.

Just picked up Borderlands. Pretty fun first person shooter. Lots of guns.

Finally saw the last Star Trek movie. Very good. I also saw Jennifer's Body. Very not good.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 01:09 PM) I think we should hold judgement. If the commercial is simply choose life and family...is that so wrong? I could see if they're showing embryos or something, but if it's in good taste and is simply a matter of choose life, why is that bad. If your pro choice does that mean you push for and encourage abortions?? I'm not sure what the issue here is, when we don't even know what the commercial is about. If it was some shock and awe pro life campaign, I would suspect it wouldn't get approved and it shouldn't. It's not the commercial I have a problem with. Its the group that is airing it.

I love fluff stories this time of year. Everything is great!

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) So you'd be cool if an charitable organization run by the Westboro Church ran an ad during the super bowl to promote organic foods? EDIT: Forgot who I was responding to. You probably would be cool with that based on views you've stated in the past. GOD HATES PESTICIDES!!

I want to lose about ten pounds. I'm at like 173 right now and what to be around 165. I really just have to lose the gut I got over the years. Anyone know any good exercises for this. Should I just do some running?

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 09:36 AM) If FotF went as "far right" as PETA goes "far left", they would show an actual abortion taking place... and you know what? CBS would reject it too. Focus on the Family founder James Dobson called gays "An Abomination". He also believes homosexuality should be outlawed. That is as right wing as you get and CBS is giving him a giant stage.

So they will run a commercial by extreme right wing homophobic group Focus on the Family, but PETA can't run an ad promoting the benefits of eating vegetables.

Buehrle talked about working out more in the offseason and doing some more stuff like that. Hopefully it pays off.

The left needs to be more tolerant to the intolerant.

Watched Observe and Report last night. Creepy comedy, but pretty good.

Woodson had a way better year than Revis. I actually thought Revis should have finished third behind Sharper.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jan 13, 2010 -> 11:32 AM) Slayer postponed their tour because Tom Araya needs back surgery. This sucks. I was going to see them with Megadeth and Testament next month. Yeah, I hope this still happens.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 13, 2010 -> 01:26 PM) Is that like pocket pinball? If it is. How could anyone veto that?
