Random Thoughts Thread (NSFW)

I'm seriously addicted to Fight Night Round 3 right now for some reason, I've been playing it a couple times today.

 

<div class="quote_poster">MrJ Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">From what I hear, it depends. I don't know how the laws are over there (are you in Memphis now?) but if it was just pot then I don't think your brother is facing anything really serious; maybe just a fine or something, but that depends on the amount also. I don't know about the whole eating thing though. If he was trying to dispose of it he could be getting into some more trouble, but like I said I don't know. I had friends get in trouble for similar things and they didn't face any jail time. They were younger than 18 and in New York so things probably worked out differently.

Good luck with all that though man.</div>

Thanks everyone. I've been on the phone with bail, impound, and jail employees trying to get details, but he won't be processed until 2:30 AM, so until then, I don't even know the specifics of what he went down for. All I know is that he was in my car, which under the insurance he's not supposed to be, and he had at least 1/2 oz, and he tried to eat it. That's all I know, nothing else. 1/2 oz is a felony in TN btw, but this is his first offence since he's been an adult.

 

Prolly the longest string of random thoughts I'll ever type..here goes


It's amazing seeing how some people you used to know from your school days grew up. The ones I hated aren't really doing much now but still live out here, they act friendly towards me now like it's all good after all those years, lol..I'll still act friendly towards them back but I'm not gonna hang out with em. The ones that I was cool with are doing pretty decent, always keep in touch with em. Then there's the "toxic" type friends that you were always pretty cool with, but wouldn't hang out with all the time because of some of the things they tend to do. Haven't seen any of them since graduation.


It annoys me when customers complain about so and so an item being on sale without READING THE TAG UNDER IT COMPLETELY or the circular even(wal-greens talk for catalog). It's like:

*rings up candy*

Customer: That's supposed to be 5 for 5.

Me: It's only for these types of candy only. That isn't included in the sale.

Customer: But the tag down there said 5 for 5. *says it a bit more sternly this time*

Me: Yes, I know sir/ma'am, but I'm sorry, it's for these items only.

Customer: GET ME YOUR MANAGER!

Me: (..you gotta be kidding me.) *calls manager*


Or when they just get mad over absolutely nothing..lol Like when I'm doing 1-Hour Photo this one time, I had to replace the paper in the printer cartridge and you gotta put everything in this dark bag in order to put the paper in the cartridge so the paper doesn't get overexposed, and you can't take your hands out of the bag until you're done. So I'm replacing the cartridge and whatnot and this lady walks up to the desk, wanting to drop off some film:

Her: Looks like you're doing something dangerous.

Me: *not really getting it* Um...Hello, I'll be with you a minute ma'am. *politely smiles*

I finish replacing the cartridge 1 or 2 minutes later..

Me: *nods, politely smiles* Okay, how can I help you today?

Her: ..I think I'll go somewhere else *storms off*

Me: *confused* O....................kay?

*overhears her complain to the assistant manager, really overexaggerating alot of things*

Me: (....Are you serious?)

That was like the other day...smh.




Don't you hate when you're about to hook up with this FINE FINE chick..damn near perfect, and somebody gotta start c-blockin? That happened to me man.. I Was soooo pissed you do not believe. I coulda been tappin' that right now...but noooo some other customer just started pestering me. She hasn't shown up for a while since either..what a ruined opportunity. Man she was fine...

Sometimes at closing we just clown around after we finish cleaning up and stuff. Well one time I had one of those toy footballs and I was tryin to get my McNabb on by scrambling, well I juked to the right but my ankle did the harlem shake and I almost fell flat on my face..


Robot Chicken seriously has to be one of the funniest shows ever.

Man I work at Pizza Hut. Some people are retarded there. Like I am a CSR which means I pick up the phones and you know take orders.

Typical Questions:

"What's the difference between Bone-In and Bone-Out?"
Just to let you know, if you don't know what that means, the wings, no bone or with bone. I just hate this question because it's annoying.

"Do you have any fries?"
Come on, fries?? This isn't a restaurant. We don't even have a sit-in.

Anyways, I also hate it when customers call back to complain about their order and they bitch you out. They always insist that you were the one talking to them. I could've just clocked in and answered the phone for the 1st time. "Yes, I talked to earlier when I ordered and you guys sent me the wrong pizza." *Starts complaining*

Also, another thing that I hate is when people don't get marinara sauce for their breadsticks and they want a free pizza or free breadsticks. WTF

Was this at your job? I've been c-blocked a couple of times. By my own friends. Pisses me off.

 

I almost got fired today for being rude to this bitchy customer. She was so rude to me and I didn't even do anything to her. She came up to the counter and was like

Overweight Lady: Change your damn gloves whats wrong with you?! I don't f*ckin' eat bacon or ham!
Me *couldn't control myself*: Lookin' at you right now, I don't believe you.
Lady: Excuse me are you calling me overweight you little b*tch?
Me: I'm just saying, you can come to Subway all you want and you still won't lose that.

By that time my manager came out and told me to go to the back to cool off. He talked to the lady for a while and she left. Then my boss was pissed at first and was like "you know you can get fired by doing that, but next time just control your words before you do anything" He let me off easy.

I'm laughing to what you said to her. That's some good ****. Anyways, yeah next time (although funny) you gotta control that man.

Yeah, no ****.

It's going to be $2,000 to bail my brother out, and we have a Wednesday night court date. He's being charged with possession with the intent to sell as well as tampering with evidence, a felony charge. I'm not sure, but I could be facing charges as well because the car was in my name. He's being interrogated right now. I just hope he doesn't snitch. I don't think he will, but some of the crips he rolls with won't **** around. They'd come after him if he snitches, so I'm worried for his own safety more than anything else atm. I can't even begin to worry about getting my car out of the impound lot.

And I know what you mean about the customers who don't read the tags. They just see what they want to see. They see a tag for some discount and just assume its for the thing they want, 90% of the time its for the thing ABOVE it or its a mail in rebate or a discount that requires a coupon.</div>

Yeah man, same exact thing here. I don't know why it's so difficult for customers to read things like that completely..and then they complain when they know they're wrong.

<div class="quote_poster">Bahir Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">NTC and you aussies, what is your opinion of the city of Adelaide? I checked their university site, and they had some interesting educations (Bachelor of International Studies/Bachelor of Economics (double degree) among else)</div>

I'm not too sure since I've never been, I've only ever lived in Melbourne and Brisbane (currentley). They are both really nice cities, but I think Brisbane has one of the best education systems in Australia.

VC, your brother shouldnt be facing too bad a charges, down here if you got caught with half an ounce, you'd probably either have it confiscated and get let off with a warning, fined, or be placed on probation depending on wether you have previous charges, but even then still, your chances are pretty good. I've seen guys on TV who have been nailed trafficking heroin like 4-5 times before, and been caught again and let off with a fine. It's crazy.

I know a couple guys who have had their places raided, and been put on probation.

The American marijuana laws are ridiculous. He's actually facing minimum a year in prison and a $250,000 fine because he tampered with the evidence and apparently had a quarter sack of mushrooms on him too. I'm headed down to get him after the shift change at 5:00 AM. I'm going to pay $2,000 bail. Not to mention all the money it's going to cost to get my car out of the impound lot... that is, if they didn't find anything in it, which they probably did, and that's just a whole nother problem...

 

lol, I just remembered, yesterday when I went to look for some new clothes, I had just finished at the gym, so I was walking around in my singlet (tanktop, wifebeater for you American elitists, lol ), so my tattoo was visible, and I went into one shop in which the guy working the counter was Asian. I picked out a shirt to try on, and as I was walking to the change room to try it on, he says "Hey thats a cool tattoo man, what does it say?" I looked at him like " ahhhhh......", because as some of you may remember, my tattoo is a Japanese Kanji symbol for 'Warrior' He then says to me "I'm not Chinese or anything man, so I dont know". T'was quite awkward thats for sure.

I also just remember hearing "Smack My Bitch Up" by the Prodigy when I was out on Friday night. The club I frequent has a $1.5 Millon sound system, so it was going nuts I love it when they just randomly break out and old classic that sends the place into hysterics, its sick. I'm still a bit pissed at one of the DJ's though, I requested "Sandstorm" by Darude a few months back on and OldSchool night, he said he would play it, but he played "Feel The Beat" instead

 

Good luck with that situation, VC. Really shows how pointlessly harsh US drug laws are. At least its his first offense as an adult, though.

lol, that was a wicked diss Iggy. Stupid if you want to keep your job, but funny nonetheless.

3 more days until I quit my job. I'll be happy to get out of this office and stop having to wake up early for a couple weeks, but my boss is making me finish everything on my desk. That means I have to tackle this huge stack of complicated forms that I was too lazy to finish.

Allergies have been b**ch for the past week or so and this morning my eyes were dry as hell. I put in my contacts and just before I was going to leave for the train, my right contact somehow got stuck up under my eyelid. That was seriously messed up sh*t. It took 5 painful minutes to finally get it out of there.

 

I just bailed my brother out. He's very thankful and says he'll straighten up his act.

The only problem is that they charged him with a class C felony, punishable by 1-10 years in state prison.

The charge? Tampering with evidence. The drug charge was only a misdemeanor. Just goes to show you how backwards the law can be.

But the point is, my big brother could be doing up to ten years in a state prison, and his trial is tomorrow. Meanwhile, I'm being brought up on lesser charges and was given a court date of my own, because several narcotics were found in my car. They weren't mine, but it's my car, so I may take the fall.

I'm calling some friends now looking for a good lawyer. In a perfect scenario, I won't pay any fines or do any time, and my brother will only get a fine and probation. Of course, life never winds up that perfect, or else I wouldn't even be in this situation to start with.

It's crazy too, because we are the most nonviolent people on the planet. We just like to throw parties and have fun. That whole "Sex, Drugs, & Rock n' Roll" lifestyle is destructive but only to the self, and an individual should have the choice to be self destructive if they want to be. Instead though, my brother's got a case in between the guy going down for homicide and the guy who just held up a bank.

The video for that song is legendary. One of the coolest videos of all-time, hands down.

 

Good to hear Voodoo. I'm glad you go bail for your brother and I hope the court dates go well.

 

work has kept me out of here the past few days...................
