OHH don't tell me that. i miss those, man. i've been super congested all week and craving a smoke.
an indian casino gas station just sounds awesome. that reminds me of driving to vegas with my dad and stepmom and stopping at this casino/restaurant in mesquite, nv. how anyone could live there is beyond me, but the kitsch factor was through the roof and honestly sorta awesome.

I totally agree. Mayweather was brilliant. Not in a spectacular way but from a tactical pov. He completely out-thought Paq. He'll never go down in history as a brawler but he'll be seen as one of the most intelligent fighters this (and perhaps any) sport's ever seen. I hated all the 'but Paq was injured' arguments. Most boxers are carrying an injury. If it's serious the fight's postponed if not you fight on. Mayweather's quetly been carrying injuries for years but he knows how to adapt accordingly. Paq didn't. The only question with Mayweather now is where he ranks among the sport's all-time greats. |

Paquiao had a bad shoulder injury two weeks before fight, kept it hidden, so all you suckers would bet big time and pay ridiculous amounts for pay per view. the fight was a fix. made it look good, lasting to a decision. this fight should have taken place 5 years ago.

you do not postpone a fight where both fighters expect to earn 100 MILLION dollars.

No way a fix. Just a condition of the sport. There won't be many big name boxers who haven't carried injuries in major fights - Mayweather included. It takes something like a broken arm to postpone a fight and no boxer will declare any lesser injury before-hand, knowing it'll only give their opponent a tactical advantage. Paq lost fair and square against a massively superior opponent. Yes the fight should've taken place 5 years ago but I'm not sure the outcome would've been all that different.

what i wanna know is if the dog was as stoned as rob! Quote:
ha ha yes we have those every other 50 miles around here i finally had one (half, really, & like the ex-president i didn't inhale). it was nice, and the perique taste was there, but very faint. i'm used to stronger perique blends but it was like seeing a nice place from far away. i still got a slight dopamine kick that let me work a couple of extra hours last evening, ha ha. |

gmku's pet peeve of the week: uptalk.
What is uptalk? it's ending every sentence like the one before this one, as if it's a question. I hear this so freaking much, and it is extremely annoying to me. People at work will go through an entire work conversation this way, letting their voice rise on the last or close to last syllable of every sentence. It makes me want to interrupt and say, "Is that a question?" And when they do ask a question, how do I tell the difference? "Oh. Is that a question?"

I....HATE....THAT.....SHIT
I too find that a pet peeve. "So I was walking down the corridor, going to lunch? and I was like, all hungry? so I got me a burger and fries? but the ketchup bottle was empty?" I FUCKING hate that shit. I hate it almost as much as I hate when people speak as if they are idiots who stopped paying attentioon to English class in 4th grade. "She was like are you going? and I was like oh no, so I then was all like I am not gonna go, and she was like why?" as opposed to "She asked, "are you going?" and I thought "Oh no." so I said "I am not gonna go." and she asked "why?" NO ONE IS "LIKE" anything! How do people pass the ACT or SAT with language skills so shitty?

I hear you, Rob. It's associated with other kinds of conversations, too, not just inane conversations, but as I say, serious work discussions, work conversations, teleconferences. It's like fingernails on chalkboard to me.
"So, we're going to host 82 internships? That will take a lot of coordination? and we have key partners? in communications, alumni relations, and the president's office? And thanks to Nate's hard work? we're forging ahead?" AAAARRGGGHHH

I also hear really fast talk. Fortunately uptalk and fast talk don't go together, often. When they do, it's really crazy.
I am probably the only one in my office who speaks in deliberate, thoughtful tones, at a reasonable speed, and without the singsong uptalk lilt. My coworkers all probably just think I'm old and slow.
