The opposite end of the spectrum.

That is pretty damn amazing. I still get excited when I can make out the big dipper.
I’ve gotta head down to the desert sometime and hang out with you guys in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night where no one can hear you being mugged.

That, and using a cheese grater on frozen butter instead of doing that 2 knives thing for an hour when making pie dough… so much less hassle.

From looking at it I image it’s a pain in the ass to make though.

Making it isn’t that rough. It’s less of a hassle if you pour the batter to make one giant rectangle, then cut that into equal rectangles.

“Suicide hot-line. Please hold.” I must admit, I LOL’d.

I have a friend who was going through a rough bit while working on his psychology masters. He tried to get free campus care but, because of ethical conflicts or some crap, they denied him. So he decided to spend a few months living in his car and getting drunk instead. (He’s doing better now.)

There’s a non-profit that’s trying to get minor attracted adults (pedophiles) to feel safe and comfortable going to get therapy. There are gobs of apocryphal accounts of
“Hi, suicide hotline.”
“I’m attracted to a toddler, I can’t take it. I’m thinking about killing myself”
“You know your muffler? Okay, follow the pipe that leads to it until you see another muffler looking thing, the inside will look like a wasp’s nest. Saw that part off. Go somewhere remote, route the exhaust into the cabin and just let the car keep running. I recommend using a flexible air duct and some duct tape. Call back if you get stumped somewhere.”

Do not know WHAT I’m going to make for the third one…

Make a Dobos torte.

Good will, good wishes and good luck man.
If you ever need to silently brood to someone, I’m available.

Awesome, thanks.

I currently have screwmount, Contax/Yashica, Minolta manual focus, and a few others. Manual-focus macro lenses can be found for cheap.

If I could find a screw mount macro prime lens I’d be all over it, but I’ve only seen zooms in the under $150 range.

Here, it’s less pretentious.

These photographs, in retrospect, are some of the clearest and most accomplished examples of the new movements to which they belong. Together with a handful of other works they represent turning points in the way art represents the world, and because those particular turning points happened once, they can never happen again.

That’s his point, I think.

Pricing art on its merits is like pricing a car on its merits.
A 2005 Kia Rio is faster, more comfortable and, to many people, better looking than a 1905 Rolls Royce V-8 with a Landaulet par Excellence body. The Kia is fundamentally a better car, it’s ridiculous to argue otherwise. Is history worth $750k?
What about a Bugatti Veyron? It doesn’t have history, but it’ll probably go up in value. It almost certainly will be creeping around Pebble Beach in 75 years. Can you add history to the price because you think it will eventually have it?

Note the questions asked by the pedophile in the blue shirt.

Obviously the kid is not there to blow up planes for Al Queda.

That said, Chicago does have a lot of bad blood with another ravaged hellhole full of uneducated, hateful degenerates; Detroit Tigers fans. I wouldn’t be surprised if scum like them wrapped their kid in C-4. It’s a different culture there, and it’s something the civilized world can’t understand. We take a hard line with them, and it isn’t pretty. I don’t expect you to understand until you see your team getting beaned.
From where I stand, he had every reason he needed to ask if the kid liked Tigers.

Nicely done, congratulations.

1. Get hazard pay for the chemistry shots.

2. If you want to attract chem students, shoot Swedes massaging their hands after a long day of pipette monkeying under a hood with someone with limbs comically larger or smaller than your own.
No doubt you asked the group in the chemistry hoodies to hide their gnarled fingers from the camera, and only got them to smile by promising them that they wouldn’t have to fight for uncracked stoppers like Laotian orphans for kelp on their barge ride to servitude in Singapore.

3. In the shot with the dude pointing a warning finger while holding a graduated cylinder (ostensibly full of acid)… Is that being sensitive to the concerns of Manchester’s South Asian population?

Again, very nicely done and congratulations.

I wonder how many plausible threats are born in the minds of furious customers waiting in lines.

“That motherfucker gets to keep his candles? And I can’t get a fucking bottle of scotch at the fucking duty free shop? Fucking semtex looks like wax. I bet I could hook a remote controlled electric match in there, hide it as the wick-holder, coat it all in paraffin and blow this fucker up. God this line is taking forever. Estes makes remote detonators. I think I have family in Ireland, I wonder if they’re in the IRA. The IRA used semtex, I think. Aw Christ man, you knew you would have to take off your shoes. How many years has John Madden been yelling about tough-actin’ Tinactin? He’s not a subtle man! What is the range those detonators? I wonder if I could get a bag in cargo then blow it up at take-off. What am I thinking, I should bomb these TSA jerkwads. I bet I could do it from the plane so my flight isn’t disrupted. I could just toss it in the amnesty bin. Fuck, that would just make things worse. I should get a job in the TSA and then blow stuff up. FUCK YOU LADY! LAST TIME YOU DID WANT THE SHOES ON THE CONVEYOR BELT! … … If I don’t get a raise this quarter I am killing these assholes.”

Everybody does that, right?
