You're saying you don't think this guy walks around all the time in a pizza box? What a cynic.

I read this in this mornings paper and it immediately reminded me of your comment on Wally World.

I guess you never quite know who'll you'll bump into at Wal-Mart. Just another Wal-Mart story.

JS Online: Woman charged in slaying of UW-Milwaukee student over car

Quote:
Zoellick parked the Mitsubishi in a storage shed, then the couple drove to his mother’s house. It was about 10:30 p.m. Zoellick, his mother and LaFave drove to a nearby Wal-Mart and went shopping.
Quote:
If convicted of felony murder, LaFave faces 50 years in prison.

It is a strange future for a woman who, on her MySpace page, posted a bright pink rectangle filled with hearts and says:


“Never regret anything because at one time . . . it was exactly what you wanted.”

Force his eyes to stay open and put him in a room where it is completely dark for one second then really bright for one second, keep this cycle going for 24 hours. Also have a 1k tone play in 10 second intervals, blasting into his ears. Have the tone stop after 12 hours then play a loop of people screaming for 6 hours. Finally play the "I love you song" from barney and get people dressed in barney suits to dance around this guy as the lights flash.

You guys have it all wrong. These assholes aren't some mighty warriors. They're punks. That's why they're in gangs.
I've been around so many of these clowns. Big to start with, but they spend hours building their muscles up. But then they need to study karate or some shit. THEN they need guns to back it up. And a gang to protect them.

Why... to protect a tribe or something? No, just to be badass. But they can't get bad enough to be secure with themselves.

I look at a guy like that and think what I've thought a hundred times before: "What the FUCK are you scared of?"

As far as being dangerous, they're a joke. There idea of fighting is a drive-by. And they drive by a parking lot full or crips or treces or whatever and hose it down with automatic fire and the only person they hit is some kid in his mother's arms in the liquor store.

In Mexico they manage to hit people with their bullets, but that's because they shoot them when they're tied up and blindfolded.

I haven't seen one of the gangs yet that I didn't figure my brother and I, maybe two or three other guys couldn't kill off in about ten minutes.

They just aren't MEN, if you have any idea what I mean by that. That's why they're trying so hard to look what think a man looks like.

Punks, by and large.

Sounds a bit like the distinction someone made between indoor fit and outdoor fit. Indoor fit works out in a gym and has great pecs but falls apart quickly in the real world, outdoor fit looks normal but can work flat out all day.

Exactly. Movie-goers think mercenaries look like Schwartzenegger or Stallone or Seagall. Actually they tend to look more like Steve McQueen.

I'm sensing some hostility from the scrawny crowd.

Personally, I represent the "Still alive while half of those assholes are dead now" sector.
