Hey Matt Young, I was just having a telephone conversation with Kinetic and you were mentioned. You've really arrived as a TSM standard now.

 

Nice. I'm sure it was negative, if it came from Kinetic.

Kinetic harbors no visible ill will toward anyone. I can't imagine him even kicking an inanimate object in frustration.

I'm learning more and more about what occured after my brain checked out on Sunday night. It turns out that I verbally harassed my neighbors for no reason and then flicked a lit cigarette at one of them as he attempted to flee from my barrage of sloppy, drunken insults. I don't even really dislike these guys that much.

I've been spending some time at The Pit recently. This probably comes as a surprise to no one, but that Marney is the most awful human being I've ever encountered. Doesn't she supposedly look like Eric Stoltz from Mask? Someone want to dig that picture up for me?

That not-smile hides six rows of jagged black bloody teeth and a forked tongue.

I don't know.. alot of times it seems like they change the colour and mix up the chapters, just to make more money.

 

The only problem with buying an older edition(from my experience), is that if your prof is talking about something on a certain page, it will be on a different page in your book. But if you know what the chapters called, you should be able to find it.

Buy the cheap book and photocopy the extra pages. If it's a college course I doubt you'll be asked to stand up and read aloud or anything along those lines. The second edition probably just still has U.S.S.R on the map.

Do editions in books matter? I'm about to buy the 2nd edition of a book when the professor asked for a third edition, cause the price difference is astronomical.

What subject? Something like a math course you'll need to new edition. For a history course though it's inconsequential. And you could always consult with the professor themselves. Most of them know what a scam the college textbook market is.

Professors are usually required to change their textbooks every couple of years because the campus bookstore is a cash cow for most universites. Because most professors are disinterested in learning new material, they just choose newer editions with modest changes in page numbering, pictures or something else inconsequential. As long you can follow what the professor is talking about, having an old edition is usually no problem.

I like how in one ad, one guy wanted to break up with his girlfriend because she had bad credit and so they couldn't mortgage a house.

 

Wah-wah-wah. Who the hell decides to break up with their s.o. based on their credit score? Fucking stupid.

Off the top of my head:

 

Well, I married my dream girl

I married my dream girl

But she didn't tell me her credit was bad

So now instead of living in a pleasant suburb

We're living in the basement at her Mom and Dad's

 

No, we can't get a loan for a respectable home

Just because my girl defaulted on some old credit cards

If I'd gone to Free Credit Report dot com

I'd be a happy bachelor with a dog and a yard

 

I watch a lot of TV at work.

Also:

 

They say a man should always dress for the job he wants

So why am I dressed up like a pirate in this restaurant?

It's all because some hackers stole my identity

Now I'm in here every evening serving chowder and iced tea

 

Should have gone to Free Credit Report dot com

I could have seen this coming at me like an atom bomb

They monitor your credit

Send you e-mail alerts

So you don't end up selling fish to tourists in t-shirts

 

This one hits especially close to home.
