Whee!

Some of you people have been, like, clamoring for an update. So I guess I'll oblige!

Update!

I WIN!

Had you fooled there for a moment, didn't I? I bet you thought that's all I was gonna say, 'coz I'm like, so talkative and shit! This is why Bahimiron occasionally messages me to tell me that I suck, and when I ask what I did this time, he just tells me 'I don't know. You just do!'. Mighty Bahimiron of the Applejacks reasoning! Hooray! Anyways, I've been meaning to update for a while and to tell you all a story. Some of you might've heard it before, but I wanted to share it here for the masses.

I have a friend. Now, this friend is pretty dirt-poor. He's working two jobs and is an actual pizza-delivery guy inbetween busing table at a bar called the Blue Monk and working on his mad phat capoeira skillz. Now, I've been friends with this guy for ages and we'd planned on seeing a movie that day. We were thinking about hitting 'House of a Thousand Corpses' or 'Bulletproof Monk'. Anyways, I call him up to make the plans and he tells me a little story that just sounded painful.

"So, dude. I was shopping for clothes because it'd been ages since I've done that and I was getting some great deals all over the place. So I was going from store to store to get shit with a friend. I mean, I got about $300 worth of stuff for about half that and my friend who was with me had gotten about $100 worth of stuff. So I was on my way out of the last store and went to put my bags in my car when I noticed EVERYTHING was gone. I'd been seriously jacked. At least they left me my new Mister T cap."

So I tell him the movie is gonna be on me, right? Because, hey, he's my pal and it sounds like he had a shitty day. So me, his brother, and a friend of his brother all go to see Bulletproof Monk, which wasn't all that bad. Not great, but not bad. And we have a good time at the movie and then on the way back we all hear this thumping sound.

"Hey, is that a flat tire?" My friend's brother pipes up with that from the back and we drive a little ways further and it sounds like, whatever it was, had stopped. But he decides to get out anyway and we start checking over the tire that was making the noise and, at first, we don't find anything wrong with it. Looks pretty solid. So my friend gets out and then reaches over and feels the tire and finds a GIANT FUCKING NAIL sticking out of it. Joy! Same day.

So we're stuck changing the tire when it's raining. Thankfully, the friend of his brother's was some kind of automotive genius and managed to get the tire changed in relatively short order. Unfortunately, while he was working on it, my friend lost his cool and punched out his tail light and really shredded his hand up.

I laughed at him. I blame Conditor_Maloru for that. I'm a bad person! :(

There's no moral to this story other than 'Don't be an idiot and keep shopping when you've got lots of stealable stuff in your car' and 'Punching your car when you're really pissed is a bad idea.'
