I was thinking about the two antennas who met on a roof, fell in love, and were married. The wedding was nothing special, but the reception was terrific.

    Some jewelry store commercial just came on - "all she wants is a ring".

    Really? I don't.

    So fuck you and your marketing campaign.

    Is it spring yet? (I know, we need the rain but I'm craving warm weather!)

    I thought there was a thread like this but couldn't find it. That what I get for trying to do anything requiring any kind of brain power in the early morning hours, :lol:

    Maybe we can dump this thread for that one since it came first.

    this thread is about thoughts though...the other one is about anything
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Brian can I jump in on your thread? Ib have no idea where to ask this question. I wanted to get the hubs disturbed tix for his bday and I dropped the ball. The 2 MI dates are sold out.

    When I go to ticketmaster resale tix show up.

    So anyways. Question is has anyone bought "resale" tix from ticketmaster? Are the tix still thru ticketmaster? I'm assuming it's legit right? It has to be.....?
    Oh please let it rain today.

    You are buying from stinging essentially...pretty sure you are 'protected' from scams, but I have heard of stories about people not getting tickets, they get a refund but some people are literally outside the venue without tickets. This happenens more commonly with high demand tickets. You can wait for day of show, and prices tend to drop.

    Yes, still through ticketmaster, and totally legit. The original buyer is out of the picture once they go back for resale on TM. TM basically repossesses the tix after the buyer hands them back for TM resale. It certainly is quite the fucking racket they have set up!

    Hmmm. Ok. I wonder. They must not be transferred electronically. Thanks!

    Self-awareness is a wonderful thing. It grows, evolves, as we live and contemplate how we live. How we want to live.

    Get that window into yourself, who you are, how you act. How you treat yourself and others. Learn that shit and live it. At least try.

    Insight, right?

    Social media has ruined much of that. Seems it's become mostly physical self-awareness, like a facade. Pose just so, catch the shot (FILTER!) and post that motherfucker so others can confirm the narcissism is a-ok.

    I'm also pissed about the whole concept of self-driving cars but I'll save that (not-so-random) rant for another time =)

    aren't narcissitic people generally diagnosed as being psychotic?

    Would any one object if we added another, say, four to six hours to a day? :look_at_the_time:

    yes, because then we would be forced to work longer days...studies have shown that if workdays were only 6 hours production would be up, because most people will goof off for about 2 hours to milk the clock.
