The Summer of Two-Thousand Six
It's been awhile. Hello Livejournal. So Summer '06 is officially over in my book, and its end is both pleasant and sad. So in typical me fashion, I will go over the important events, my thoughts (you Bruce-haters might want to skip this) and (this too) why I hate more things daily.
I will start off with Summer '06s rank. Third-worst summer of my life...I haven't really decided which is first and second (it's between '04 and '05 without question).
On a sadder note, today is the 5th Anniversary of the terror attacks. Since this whole entry is silent...I'd like to take a few lines of blank in memory..
So this summer started off very slowly. It was basically a continuation of the school year's activities. The highlight of the opening was Operation Defiance. That's all I can say. Not nearly as many grad parties as last year. This took up the first month of summer. Then college was on the horizon, once again. I use the term "college" lightly when referring to that waste of acreage: MCC. Anyways. Here's some detail.
Parties seem to be dominantly at Paul "Guido" Hadcock's. Well...at least a majority of the good ones. A few talented pong teams were formed this summer (none of which included girls, because they suck at pong [and life]). These teams include Team Shmeam, Team AF, Team 11-0 (also known as Team Formation), and Team Unstoppable. Let me run the rosters down real quick for you:
Team Shmeam
Members: Paul Hadcock and Kyle O'Hara
Bio: Team Shmeam is one of the most talented teams of '06. Going on a 20 game winning streak is not rare for these boys. As a matter of fact, I vote this the most talented team of the summer. Congrats.
Team AF
Members: Kyle O'Hara and Brandon Segave
Bio: The best dressed team in town. They use their high-class wardrobe to distract the other team and play with the highest standards. Team AF plays until the other teams run out of beer.
Team 11-0 / Team Formation
Members: Paul Hadcock and Brandon Segave
Bio: Known for the dominant 11-0 run (back in the early summer days when 11-0 was rarely reached), this team relies on Hadcock's uncanny ability to drain redemption cups. The team also is known for calling re-racks on the first turn of the game, putting them at a severe disadvantage. Their most famous, and challenging move is known as the "slash" (picture coming soon).
Team Unstoppable
Members: Kyle O'Hara and Jake Scott
Bio: Team Unbeatable has quite a few games under its belt. The team is beatable (as evidenced by Tall Tee Night) but is extremely accurate. Scott's relentless trash talk, coupled with O'Haras sniper-like accuracy make this team a force to be reckoned with.
These teams played a majority of the summer, and you'd be lucky to get on a table and not have to deal with them. I will note that Michelle Saile and I had a pretty solid record on the tables.
The Fourth of July was a good time. Bill Lewis and I ran things on the outdoor table (with wind) for quite some time. Note that I played all games with mixed drinks. That day spawned Team ITALIA! after watching the Italians stick it to the Squareheads...I mean...Germans. 2-0 was your final score. I proceeded to go solo flip cup, in absolute downpour against AJ Stauber. This was quite the challenge. It was raining so hard that after filling the cups an inch, the rain added about 5 before we even started the game. The drops were so huge and cold. We played about 6 games and then the rain stopped. We are troopers. The next day was rough...ask Whit.
Further down the road this summer, there were a few weekends of themed-drinks. Yes. Sex on the Beach with Whitney Calabrese. How can you beat that? Anyways. Near the end of that era was Libtricia's "Fiesta". Pretty decent time there with the older crowd. Time crawled on as parties were sprinkled throughout. A few stupid games tried to surface (this is due to the girls inability to win pong). These games included "Straws" and "Moose". I will note that once guys figured out these games and started kick some arse, girls gave up on them. Those games sucked anyways.
Next chapter we discuss Tim Feeny coming through at clutch times with some good throws. Those salsa chips in his basement are amazing. Those were some good times.
The summer ended with a 4 night streak of alcoholism. A split between Paul's and Tim's. It was a good run.
A good run filled with garbage plates...the key to any good time.
Something I did notice this summer was a lack of the presence of faces that had been more common in the previous tours of duty. Doser. J. Tempesta. Rob.
All-in-all it was a run of the mill summer. Some good times, maybe a few great. Nothing life changing at least. Which is a change up from the last two vacations from hell. This summer was so slow I remember very few things from it. Aside from what was mentioned, you'd have to remind me of other stuff.
Now. This is where Bruce-Haters may want to change the station. Since this isn't a television broadcast, you can't do that. So you may want to redirect your internet browser to Myspace.com, because I am sure that is where your faggot-ahhsss spends most of its time.
Did you leave yet? Ok. My thoughts are this. We are all mentally retarded. At least a little. Granted this is the time of our lives to do these types of things...but we do it a lot. We do stupid things. Yes. WE. Not just me. Not just you. WE. Aside from that...people believe too much of what they hear about from others and the TV. Get off your lazy ahhhsss and do a little research. Let me explain some basic concepts to you all. It will only take a second. Please read this so I don't have to explain it to you anymore. Thanks.
1) Taxcuts are given to the rich because when they get their $30,000 refund check and take the extra that they didn't have to pay, they aren't going to put it away for kids college or groceries, they are going to buy a BMW. This puts more money into our economy (which is STRONG right now, contrary to popular belief). This is how our economy grows. When middle class workers get cuts, they tend to save it, which does nothing for the economy, thus weakening it.
2) Unless you are suspected of being a terrorist and you are making international phone calls...YOU WERE NOT BEING WIRETAPPED BY THE GOVERNMENT! Period.
3) My favorite. 9/11 was planned by the government. I'm not sure whether to laugh, cry, vomit or beat someone. You sick bastards. Read the link in my profile, and the links at the bottom of that page. I don't feel like typing it all.
4) All politicians lie. Republican. Democratic. Green. Get used to it. There is no perfect candidate.
I really feel like I am going insane sometimes. How hard is it to understand basic things.
Anyways. I hate so many things. There isn't a day that goes by where I don't hate something new. It could be my pessimistic, bitter attitude that has been present the past 2 years. I will now attempt the impossible...
Drum Roll. THE LIST OF THINGS I HATE
Politicians, ulcers, kidney stones, girls who play games (99.9% of girls), liberals, slow drivers, old drivers, mini van drivers, beer, throwing up, work, school, goths, ghetto people, emos, scenes, girl-jean wearing idiots, skateboarders, emo hair, whiney voices, screaming, people who say "melk" instead of milk, ignorance, too much beer pong trash talk, tough guy-ism, fitteds, bad moods, fights, potholes, people getting your order wrong at food places, hot topic, zumiez, scotch, whiskey, cleaning, liberals, abortion, welfare, cocoa butter, bugs, too much heat, too much cold, snow, rain, charlotte beach, lactose intolerance, office max, applebees, white trash, aeropostale, cell phone companies, gas and oil companies, terrorists, actors who think their oppinions are important and need to be heard at national events, rappers who think their oppinions are important and need to be heard at national events, punk rockers who think their oppinions are important and need to be heard at ANY event, learning to play guitar, people who don't like Abercrombie, carnies, screaming drunks, racially confused, Rosie O'Donnell, gay rights activists, fat people, feminists (often fat), people who dye their hair JET-BLACK when that isn't even close to their natural color, bands that can't perform live, waterstreet, steel music hall, the copper arcade, tool and die work, braces (never had them, but they're gross) the drinking age, skunks, myspace, myspace poses, myspace anything, rap 'music', emotions that don't fade, people who can't use computers, people who don't understand simple math, the colors "creme" and "toupe", anime cartoons, batteries with short lives, garbage, pro athletes, cold garbage plates, stupid catch phrases, ebonics, liberals, technology, france, germany, russia, china, korea, dirty bathrooms, people who make myspace layouts that cause your computer to have a stroke, people who wear outfits that cause my brain to have a stroke, pointy shoes, poofy hair, drugs, people who do drugs, people who try drugs, people who sell drugs, people who buy drugs, people who see people buying drugs and don't shoot them, commercials, scions, lifting weights, brown bananas, green bananas, black licorice, restricted calls, a majority of all people, pop-ups, flash ads with loud music, CEI writing, balsa wood, bad drivers, liberals, wireless internet, poorly-recorded cell phone ringtones, paris hilton, fake people, real people, imaginary people, kanye west.
I've worked on that list for two hours now. I need a break. Man I hate everything.
Ok. I am back to finish this. Kyle and I deserve a radio show. If you tell me you would not be entertained by it, you are a liar and a fake. This means that I hate you. You may now cease reading this entry. To quote Kyle:
"GLkjo16: Girls are dicks because they are making up for not having one"
He's correct. Please send the radio contract to 499 Stone Road. Thanks. And I believe that's it for today. Focker..Out.
THE END
and it's the stars that shine for you...
