Nirvana is as old today as the Beatles were when Nevermind came out.

kapi:

Your mind has just been blown.

Not really. Nirvana and The Beatles are both suck.

jhn has never been more right about anything.

my sunday morning project:
i was at the little store around the corner getting stuff yesterday and i realized that i should get some wooden spoons. they only had this $0.99 three-pack so i got it. this morning i used some 120 grit sandpaper and some 400 grit emery paper to smooth and shape one of &#8216;em, then i rubbed hot olive oil on it and baked it in the oven for 20 minutes at 375°F, then i did that about 3 more times until it was roasted to a nice golden brown. one more pass with the emery paper and another light coat of oil and into the oven for the last time and voilà: a perfectly seasoned wooden spoon that only cost $0.33!
d.i.y. or die \m/

chemical wire (02:43.735 duration, 128 shitty and compressed kbps)

-fIREHOSE (from their 1986 released sst album ragin, full on)

now, you may know of the minutemen (jackass theme? that’s their song from 1984), but after the guit-lead/singer/main songwriter d. boon died in a van crash in ‘85, mike watt and ed hurley decided to end the band and then quickly met ed fROMOHIO (ed moved himself to san pedro, ca from ohio and pretty much tracked down watt to tell him that he wanted to keep that music going and that they weren’t done by a fucking longshot) and FUCK if they didn’t redefine the abilities of american punk just as much as fugazi branched out after minor threat.

so captain, if you have any doubts regarding their abilities, go listen to double nickels on the dime. next to workbook and margin walker this here legacy is as pure as you can get with american punk rock offshoots.

THE_REAL_SHAQ

if you aren’t following Shaq on twitter you are srsly missing out

(via thecakeisalie)

remember how the star athletes that went to your high school never had homework and then went on to full-ride college scholarships?

chances are: most of them will also be long about shaq’s age when they finally learn about palindromes and it will blow their mind just like it did for you when you were 10 years old and first learned about ‘em.

then again, you’re never gonna know what it’s like to buy a bentley for lebron james.

so there’s that, too. hmmm …

holy annoying, batman

finally got interwebs at the new place today through verizon.

problems encountered: tornados last year knocked down the telephone pole in the backyard so the dsl line from the switch had to be rerun and double-backed over itself on the poles in front of the building, adding a ridiculous amount of additional line length and degrading the signal down to just over 2000 kbps (which is pretty damn shitty when you consider that it cusps the 3.0 and the 1.6 packages so you either get a modem that freaks out and hides in the corner over and over because it can’t find the 3.0 line or you get steady by downgrading to a 1.6 bitrate).

plus sides? i got 7 months of free service and only $20/mo thereafter for all the crap i called them on (we’re prolly just gonna use this line to run a quiet little server for cuckoobrain soon), and after speaking with the tech who stopped by i was informed that our co has fiber to the switch and we’ll likely be able to upgrade to fios by the end of the year if we would like that kind of thing. hurr durr maypees? he agleed.

solution: i just ordered 10 mbps service (with option to upgrade to 15 mbps for an additional $10/mo) through the only broadband isp available around here (no fiber here yet and we’re around the corner from the office ops building and the loom building and office ops only rocks bonded t1 connex as of yet; lord knows they would be the first in the ‘hood to drop dough and get fo tubes) and i’ve seen their trucks around the corner by this one sidewalk access grate off and on since moving here and today i saw them parked up with a fiber-services truck, so who knows on that one now, ya know?

shee-it, i’m almost ready to fuckin’ pick up a few 1000’ spools of fiber and run this shit to a local switch my damn self.

ok … now where did i put my black turtleneck, black skullcap, and that bag of zipties…

whatever, it was a valid query.

superdoofus-stratodrive asked: train A leaves buttsville at 8:13:678845am (-12 gmt), traveling with an acceleration rate of 13,253.76 points/second/second until it hits a constant speed of 75.645 mph towards dickland park. train B leaves dickland park (-3 gmt) at the same time, heading toward buttsville with an acceleration rate of 10,467 mm/second/second until it hits a constant speed of mach 1.3984. if the distance between the two towns is 3,560,958,720 picas, what time (+82 gmt) do the two trains slam headfirst into each other?

kat answered: the answer would be go fuck yourself jared.
