8 days into 2015. Not even 2 weeks, and already stupid ***is happening. I had such high hopes too.
My 2014 from Thanksgiving on was kind of crud and has just kept rolling on that level. A few high points -- I finished my Mythic, for instance -- but dying family, sick family causing holiday disruption, and general holiday time off being the opposite of restful and relaxing followed by additional stuff this week has just...meh.
You know, as much as I respect many of Henry Rollins social opinions (not all, mind you, but many)...and as much as I respect Black Flag from an influential standpoint...
...I just don't think they're very good.
In that way, they're just like Bob Dylan. (To me.)
/gathers up a big pile of work papers from his desk "in box"
/puts them in the electric jogger to get them all neat
/football spikes them into the garbage can
alright... /swirls almost empty coffee cup @ PARKER
let's get right down to the brass tacks. I've got some good news and I've got some bad news.
and the only way to get either is to get them both. alright?
you take the good you take the bad... <insert "Facts of Life Theme Song Here>
What you have to do is teach yourself to enjoy the bad things that happen... Because they yingyangingly allow you to experience the good things that happen. are you following me?
Take ramy for instance bitching about how cold it is right now
But that's only because he can compare it to sunday which was super awesome. Whether or not he was able to appreciate sunday at the time however is a different story.... we'll get to that.
I love the cold. I enjoy it. I went outside last night and smoked a big fat cigar and froze my *** *** off in it to prove to myself I could still take it... /thumps himself on the chest
You can't truly appreciate a beautiful perfect sunshine day on a beach if you haven't frozen your *** off... Look at the Jamaicans, all they do is *** and try to escape reality and they live in a *** tropical paradise.
But they can't see the forest for the trees, or the beach for the sand in their case... because they are constantly immersed in it.
You gotta embrace the extremes.... Otherwise you might as well load up Thorazine and stare at a white padded wall.
There is no steady level of bliss if life gets steady it's boring you right out of your *** mind monotonous. It's a steady level of sucking hobo *** for spare hange.
/bashes his fist on his desk
You gotta be mean sometimes. You gotta get mad. and yes, sometimes you gotta get evil.
someone is going to stab you in the back.... it's going to happen... and you can whine about it or you can turn around and take it in the chest and laugh in their face and ask them if that's the best they can do and then squeeze their head until it turns purple... maybe pop one of their eyeballs out of it's socket so they can experience what that feel like...
you can't have it both ways unless you appreciate it both ways.
You can't be chivalric without someone else calling it chauvinism
You can't be steadfast without someone else calling it stubbornness or pig headed or bigoted or racist or whatever. Someone is going to see you as evil. No matter what. Thems the breaks kid.
So *** what? Let them! Relish it! Bathe in their hatred of you.. If what I am, if what I have become, is evil than so be it. I am evil.
I'm the evil that has to happen so good can exist....there.
I took the best shots the world could give me and laughed. I forged a man out of myself with my will. Right or wrong this is what I came up with, this is who I am.
I told my sons, even if I am the only man like me, the last man to walk this path. I'm going to do it. I don't care what other people think or do about it, It doesn't matter, I'm already dead they just haven't gotten around to burying me yet....
If you want to LIVE and I mean truly LIVE then you have to die.
Don't turn your back on it. Spin around and face it. Love it. Kiss death right in the mouth and ask for more. Is that the best you can do!? and it isn't all fire hell and damnation and evil.....
Last sunday one of the new babies in the family started getting fussy and everyone else starts looking to pass her of to her mom
so I picked her up and smiled. I enjoy fussy crying babies it makes me laugh because I know that at the end of the tears is a smile and a giggle and all you gotta do is wait for it... and keep talking to them and rocking them and bouncing them and then there it is.
and it's a magic. but you can't really appreciate a baby's smile if you turn your back on her tears... you have to appreciate both. Or it might as well be one of those creepy looking dolls..
You know, as much as I respect many of Henry Rollins social opinions (not all, mind you, but many)...and as much as I respect Black Flag from an influential standpoint...
...I just don't think they're very good.
In that way, they're just like Bob Dylan. (To me.)
let's not mince words ramy... they suck.
but there was a time and place where a song like "six pack" made perfect sense. and if you were there then, and in that same situation... than it makes perfect sense, and if you weren't than you have no idea what I am babbling about...
they are are one of those "you kinda had to be there" bands that were created by the time.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.
Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
