Anyone got any resolutions they are making real or fake for laughs?? I don't make "real" resolutions, talk about it but never have, probably never will I tell @BustyRose my resolution is to make sure she wakes up everyday with a black eye, she tells me that'd be fine but it would be hard for me to do if I don't wake up.

Thank you crew for helping me through!

Crew love! Some of you may or may not know that last month I was laid off from my job here in San Diego. The company I worked for up and closed its doors without any warning. This was a huge blow to me as I wasn’t sure what to do next. Worry and depression quickly set in. Thankfully I have great family and friends who support me and always have my back. With the belief that everything happens for a reason I looked at this as a new opportunity and have decided to enter the culinary world. I love to cook and find the preparation that goes along with it calming and relaxing. I just want to thank this amazing crew for helping through as well.…

So I think this week's bonuses suck, CEO got cheaper boxes so with them not being double I won't be touching boxes this week. I don't have any MC businesses started and don't want to. I will run cars this week maybe throw in some heists to mix it up. Any other suggestions on money making tactics for this week?

This evening I was just fetching myself another beer and it seems that I have a housemate that I didn't know about. Little mouse just sat in my kitchen stealing my crumbs. Personally they don't bother me but I can just imagine the reaction any date I bring home will have when seeing the little furball. Sorry little buddy you're not getting in the way of me and my ladies! Getting a cat isn't an option so I'm going to have to trap him and any of his little mates. What do you recommend as a crew of the most effective way of getting rid of an unwanted rodent? I don't need anyone to point out that a squirrel is also a rodent! Only room for one of us in this ho…

Ive never really been one to follow through or care much about doing a New Years resolution, but it would be interesting to see who does and what you want to achieve in the new year. It will be good to write it down (here or elsewhere) as that provides you with a sense of commitment because you have written it down and also told people thus making it real which should help you achieve the Goals more then just having them in your head or telling a few people So I'll start it off with not so much a resolution but more of goals that I would like to achieve in the coming year. 1. To balance my lifestyle. There are many things I enjoy doing but I neglect everything and o…

Mid Century Furniture
by BryannosaurusRex- 4 replies
- 720 views
So, after redecorating my living/dining room I'm in the process of filling it with furniture. As its a 1970s built house I've been looking at mid 20th century items - 1960s & 1970s stuff. It suits the size and shape of the room well. British made items from that period are very Scandinavian influenced, but much of it wasn't too well constructed and most has been binned over the years. The better quality stuff that remains therefore demands a high price, particularly as it's becoming quite fashionable again. So, my question is for the Scandi folk among us - What sort of prices does 1960/70's Scandi/Swedish/Danish furniture sell for in its native countries? Th…

Ya know, your house, apartment, trailer, etc...? What would you change if you could? Do you get on well with the neighbors? I do fine with our neighbors, they are all family. I would like to tear the house down and build a new one, its tough to heat and air due to shitty design and cathedral ceilings, not enough closet space and to fix it to be right would cost as much as a new house.

Introduction Welcome to my Moto Blog of Greatness. I hope to write at least one entry each week, hopefully more, on something motorcycle related. I've been riding almost all of my life on all types of bikes and in lots of different situations. I also plan to write about motorcycle racing, motorcycles in pop culture, new bikes, old bikes, travel, maintenance, safety gear and riding techniques. I am also reserving the right to blog about other gearhead stuff like cars, trucks, ships, tools and radio controlled things. For some reason I think my entries should serve some purpose. Maybe it's just to entertain and that's good enough but it would be cool if they also i…

This post is the Blog entry that is getting removed. I'm posting it in the forum to keep it from being deleted... 2015 - The Year of Hell March 24, 2015 changed my life forever. That day, my wife gave birth to our still born boy at 24 weeks. I had never known what a loss like that could do to a family. I expected my wife to be sad. I expected to be sad. I expected my other kids to not really understand what happened, and have a lot of questions. I was not prepared for the months to come. I was not prepared for any of the repercussions of this Event. Come to think of it, the whole pregnancy was doomed. It was doomed from the beginning. Maybe that's what wa…

Remember Manchester

Hi guys, I looked if there was a post like this one on the site but I couldn't find one, so sorry if I missed it somewhere. We all know about the attack on, mostly, young people at the Manchester Arena. And it made me very sick to see that another attack took place on innocent people. Mostly young people who should have the time of their lives at a concert of Ariana Grande. 22 died and 59 were badly injured. There has been said a lot about it but somehow I still can't find enough words to describe how I feel about this and what may be to come.(sorry if my English let's me down a bit). Because we also have a lot of members from the UK, I hope non of our memb…

Aussieisms 1 2 3

We Aussies can seem like a strange lot to outsiders. It's because we generally are very blunt and call things as we see em, usually with some colourful adjectives to enhance the expression of the comment. We love our lingo and love it even more when migrants adopt our style of communication, showing us that they're really trying to be good Aussies. Here's a thread for ALL things Australian, feel free to add your own Aussieisms or just comment on the posts. I'll get it started with some of the new politically correct terminology they'd like us to start using in the workplace... ( fat fucking chance mate, I say )

Is it worth it, being nice and all....

Do you think it is worth an effort to try to be nice to people? I've spent a few years making this attempt and I seem to just get the same result as being a prick or get taken advantage of. Now I am reached the frame of mind of fuck the world and everyone in it, or at least those whom are useless cocksuckers that deserve an ice pick in the brainstem. Thoughts?

213Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Emilia Perez (2024) dir Jaques Audiard A multi award-nominated musical about a Mexican drug baron who always felt they were a woman born in a man's body. She fakes her own death and has gender reassignment, plus a lot of other plastic surgery, to start a new, better, life in a new identify. She is assisted in all this by her lawyer, Rita and tries to re-establish some sort of relationship with her wife Jessi and kids. Emilia is played by Karla Sofia Gascon (a trans woman) and has been nominated for best leading actress in the Oscars and Baftas. But I would say it is Zoe Saldana, as Rita, who is the main character. Both she and Selana Gomez, as Jessi, have picked up (supporting actress) nominations, as has the director, makeup artists, composers, producers, writers and others in technical roles. It could win all of those. I don't think it will, but I haven't seen that many films released last year yet. It seems to be one that you either love or hate. I suspect a lot of the hate is coming from people who are anti-trans and can't see past that aspect of the film. I liked it, the music and cinematography in particular. The acting was good, but I'm not sure if it was award-winningly good. I also think the script could have been better. It's just over 2 hours long but because it has so many musical scenes that, as is usually case in musicals, don't advance the plot the way spoken dialogue would, it felt to me like it ought to have been longer to fill in some missing details. The musical numbers were good though, sort of similar to a Baz Lurhman film, in that the actors singing them do not necessarily have a great singing voice but also with some scenes that just burst into a massive dancing and singing show that then goes back to dialogue afterwards. And a lot of it is not musical at all. There were a couple of cheesy scenes; one in-particular in a Thai gender reassignment clinic that Rita is checking out before finding the right one, did not make much sense to me. Maybe they were trying to say “this is the popular image of a s*x-change clinic, but in reality it's something far more serious”? Another slightly weak plot element is that Jessi does not recognise her former husband after the surgery. Of course that surgery has made some massive physical changes, that was the point, but even so, would you not pick up on some characteristics of a person you have been married to for years and had kids with? I can forgive that though, put it down to artistic license, in the same way I forgive William Shakespeare frequently making his characters unrecognisable to their friends and family just by doing their hair different and wearing a hat! 8 / 10- 3
