  1. It was unexpected. My buddy talked me into going back to the Redroom with one of his exes who he is just friends with now. Naturally, being female, the bouncer lets my buddy's ex in right away. Anyhoo, while waiting an ungodly amount of time in line, get to know this dude named Cesar from El Salvador. He was with some babes and he smoked a joint with me and other peeps. I take the good precautions of smoking weed with strangers so that I get the dope smoke without me lips being on the joint. If you smoke da reefer you know what I be talkin about.

    Anyhoo, finally get in in this place. End up losing my buddy for like a half hour inside the place. He ends up hookin up with some Spanish babe and leaves. He tells me before I leaves to go look around for his ex before I leave. I really didn't want to, but I just humored his notion anyways. I'm sure she went home with some dude she had met within 5 minutes of getting inside the joint. (no pun intended)

    I run into the Cesar fellow I had met earlier. He wants to blaze another joint he had on him. We blaze outside. Afterwards he tells me that he is Bisexual. I wasn't expecting to hear that at all. My first gut reaction was to smash his faggotty face in. I just told him quite honestly, "I like women, and I suppose I'd find that flattering if I were a faggot like yourself."

    "I like both the pussy and the cock." he says. I tells him "I'm all about the pussy man, I'm not goin near you." He got the message. Never been hit on by a dude before. Being a non faggot establishment, last thing I'd ever expect. Stranger shit has happened I guess.

    Onto the street fight. Well, after being hit on by a dude that's bi, I decide my chances of getting any babes that night is zero. Not to mention the destroyed morale of a straight man's ego after having that happen. I get in line and wait for what felt like forever to get my fuckin coat.

    There was this amazingly beautiful blonde behind me, and her douchebag of a boyfriend. He went away somewhere, so for laughs I started hitting on her, which went nowhere. But I had to hit on her. She was just hot to the point where, if I didn't, I'd feel fucking stupid for not doing so.

    Obviously nadda. But I just flat out said, "What's your name sexy?" She giggled, and then said her boyfriend would kill me if he heard me say such a thing to her. There was a fellow in front who lacked proper english speaking skills. Him and the coatcheck lady were arguing for 15 minutes. I believe he wanted his coat but had lost his ticket, and had no $ to pay the lost ticket fee to get his coat.

    She summons a bouncer and he pulls the dude out of the premise. I get my coat, and the rumble begins. The dude beings screamin at the bouncer and throws a fist. The bouncer shitkicks this dude and another bouncer hopped in fending off anybody trying to intervene. I was more worried about somebody pulling out a gun at this point, but my mordbid curiosity just drew me into the streetfight.

    The dude lay metres outside the club on the sidewalk, a complete bloody pulp. Ambulence and Police arrived. Bouncers had fucked off inside the establishment. Being a witness, and one of the few people who were well versed in the english language, I told one of the officer's what I had witnessed. Bouncer's jobs are to remove unruly people from the premise, not render them near death.

  2. 2 great things this week. Starting with Wednesday.

    Hatebreed came to town. Concert 3 years in the making as they couldn't get across the border 3 years ago. They did not disappoint. Crazy show. There were dudes in the pit bigger than the bouncers. At one point the bouncers were in absolute horror.

    Jamey Jasta: "ALRIGHT VANCOUVER! REPEAT AFTER ME! DESTROY EVERYTHING! DESTROY EVERYTHING!"

    The bouncers thought they were going to have a riot on their hands. Luckily for them the crowd was more interested in a show, then destruction. Again, another thing you will only ever see at a Metal show. Greasy, fat, ugly, dudes, with the hottest chicks, and you know the chicks aren't in it for the money either. I guess I need to gain 80lbs, grow my hair out down to my shoulders and wear camo pants. Maybe then I'll get some at a metal concert lol.


    Then Friday rolls around. My buddy told me he was going to meet some chicks at this nightclub known as the RedRoom. It was Latino night and I felt like I was in another country cause everybody was speakin Spanish. This whole thing with these chicks my buddy was supposed to meet didn't pan out.

    But I started talking to this hot babe that was sitting at the bar. She knew english :) She was Colombian. She was 30. Yowza. We danced till the club closed and she took me back to her apartment. We fucked, slept together till mornin, I got up and left. One of those one night stands. Which I'm fine with, don't think I'd ever want a serious relationship with a cougar.

  3. A little backstory to how this all happened. I've been working at this new job for a month and a half now. Working as a dishwasher in a Resteraunt. I spelt that wrong, but I'm too hungover to give a fuck. Pay is crap, $8.00 an hr + $2.00 in tips per hr. It's nice getting an envelope of cash along with a cheque. This chain of Restaraunts is one of those upscale casual types. Which means it's grossly overpriced for what is mostly average food. Shamelessly over priced booze. $7.00 for a fuckin beer.

    The good part is they're notorious for having really hot waitreses :D This jailbait hostess has been flirtin with me ever since I started workin there. She's 17, so it's close enough lol. Paralelling things to your life is overly cliche and gay. That being said, on this rare ocaision I will do so. If you've seen the movie Waiting you will know what I'm talking about.

    Vanessa Lengies plays a jailbait hostess that Ryan Reynolds wants to bang. Only he was a waiter not a dishwasher. Teehee hee. I've met Vanessa Lengies on a pilot tv show that I worked on as a walking prop. It was called Split Decision. She's hot :P

    Now for the party bus. Anyhoo there was a bunch of people that had a big bday bash and everybody was invited. They had the lounge of the restaraunt reserved + the VIP room of this nightclub downtown called Crush. Much to my suprise a few of them had put out the monies for rentin this fuckin pimpin party bus.

    It was insane. Decommishoned school bus, jetblack with tinted windows. The interior was modelled into a bitchin limo styled seating. With a few poles in the middle for hot drunk girls to get freaky on. Insane sound system, with giant ass speakers in each corner. And smaller but still fairly big speakers all across the top. It was fuckin loud.

    The bartenders had 4 giant bags loaded with booze. May or may not have been pilferred from work. The bus driver told us we had to finish it all before we ended up downtown cause of the VPD. Tunes were cranked, dancin, and we were all gettin smashed ontop of what we had at the restaraunt. Bus ride was awesome. The club not much so. It was pretty gay. Any gayer and it would've been a club of the homosexual variety. Took half an hr in lineup to get a fuckin drink.

    This VIP lounge was reserved, but we still had to wait in line like douches. With the exeception of a few of the hot chicks that were with us. It wasn't bad. Then afterwards a bunch of them left for this other club, things are a little hazy at this point. I think it was some weird fetish club, not too sure on that. In a weird spot. Anyhoo, the douchebag bouncer wouldn't let me in cause I wasn't with a chick.

    I told him he just fuckin let in all the chicks I was with. No go. No biggie, still had a good time, from what I recollect hee hee. Sadly hotty hostess didn't have a fake ID to come partying. Just wrote a fuckin novel here lol, excuse me while I go puke.

      Weird, I can say the exact same thing about my job. I make a quarter more per hour than you do though, but get no tips.

      I get paid in Canadian dollars. Went on Xe.com and converted $8.25 US to canadian and it came out to 9.28. So I make about 72 cents more than you. But I don't pay taxes on my tips, so yeah, probably make even more :D

      Not all party buses rule. I happened to party once on this ancient double decker bus that was missing its windows. Sheets of plexiglass were nailed in where the windows should've been. And it's 40 degrees out and we're going 70 on the highway. And those plexiglass pieceofshit windows did not keep the wind out. At least I had enough booze in my system to not let it get to me... too much.

  4. What can I say about whores? A buddy of mine's GF left for Australia, it was her going away celebration. Good times, drank alotta booze, it's the Canadian thing to do. The Canadian government never tells us how much money they collect in booze tax, but I imagine it being a fuckload.

    So tonight I ran into one of those high dollar whores. Afterwards most of us went to this Nightclub known as the Tonic on the Granville Strip. Anyways outside of there was this incredibly hot Dutch babe. I knew she was Dutch because of her passport from Holland she showed the bouncer.

    Sexy ass Brunette, supermodel, pornstar, centerfold, beautiful this babe was. She was with this dude in his late 40's who appeared to be of Philipino descent. She was either into millionares, or this guy bought himself a high dollar prostitute, and decided to "club" with her, before cashing in on all she's really worth.

    To prove my point, I tried hitting on her. Fearlessly, went up to her, introduced myself and started flirting wit her. Offered to buy her a drink and asked her to dance with me. Tried my best to seduced this goregeous babe. She politely declined all of such. I knew of course, the sole reason being, she was all in it for the money.

    Amazing, how beauty as such, can be so easily bought and sold.

      I guess this is the perfect thread to tell the tale of how I lost my virginity in Sennelager.

      Nothing special really. My corprals found out I still had my V plates and paid for my ride. When the prostitute found out I was a virgin she gave me another half hour free in lessons. When I woke up next day I found every british soldier in germany, or so it seemed, knew about my adventures, and after singing Like a Virgin at the regimental BBQ/kareoke I became known to every british officer in the area too. They actually asked me over to shake my hand and tell me I had a lot of balls, must have been one hell of a performance.

      Now I'm back in England I can't shut my collegues up and their timing when they bring it up is immaculate, I must say!

      Can't complain really, I lost it proffesionally and cleaner then I ever could have in a british nightclub.

  5. It was a slightly strange night. Things started off a little normal at least. This chick I knew had broke up with her boyfriend earlier that day, and wanted me to meet her at the local pub around 10:00pm. Things were good, we both got pretty hammed, and talked about all sortsa shit. Including her breakup.

    It was karaoke night, and I did a kick ass rendition of Rob Zombie's Feel So Numb. Had people compliment me afterwards. Anyhow, after numerous shots and beverages later, we ended up at this gathering at some chick's house.

    Everybody that was there was on E. This fat broad had gone out for fresh air and hadn't returned in quite sometime. So the chick I was at the bar with phoned her up and asked her where she was. The fat broad said "I'm in a trunk."

    Then she had hung up. We thought she had maybe been in somebody's car or something like that. But everybody there searched there cars, no sign of fat broad. So they phoned her again, she says "I'm in a tree talking to the owls." then hangs up.

    Chick I had been with the whole night phones her back. Her ex bf answers. He told her how he was walking home and saw the fat chick in the tree making owl noises. She had dropped her cellphone and he was able to answer it, after witnessing the strange shit. (Lord knows how a bitch that fat could scale a tree to begin with)

    He ended up climing the tree, managed to get her down, and brought her to the gathering. Never done E myself, but I've never heard of somebody getting that incredibly fucked up off of it. She said the snowy owl from Harry Potter was giving her his wise knowledge.

    Seen some fucked up shit before, but goddamn, this incident takes the cake.

      True that one lol. Few years back, I was at this party and this dude was on it. He ended up urinating in the livingroom.

      Reminded me of this song:

      I had a friend once he took some acid
      Now he thinks he's a fire engine
      It's okay until he pisses on your lighter
      Kinda smells kinda cool kinda funny anyway...

      I had a friend once he took some ecstasy
      Tried to marry me and every one in the room
      He was sort of loving kinda caring,
      kinda tried to fuck my lazy boy
      It got a bit messy all over the curtains,
      arm chair covers, throw pillows, and carpeting...

      That's all fine and dandy, but there's nothing natural about LSD as it is a synthesised chemical. If by natural LSD you're reffering to Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds, then those are actually LSA, not LSD. Essentially the same shit, just different chemical makeup.

  6. Wasn't at the casino either lol. I get a call from the bank today. "Mr.Brandon Potgiesser, we have reason to believe that your debit card has been duplicated." Thank god I had all my funds in an entirely seperate account. Otherwise I might've been out thousands.

    Luckily for me, all I had sitting in my chequing account was $2.00. Oddly enough it happened to my cousin a while ago as well. She ended up losing her rent money.

      Typically how it works is they install a hidden camera to get your pin #. Then they install a card reader over the original that stores the card data. Make copy of card, enter pin, away you go.

      I'm never using another one of those sketchy ass Fast CashTM ATMS again. At least the ones at a bank are typically safe. The last place I used it was at a sketchy downtown bar weeks ago. Considering all the cocaine that gets trafficked through it, the ATM scam wouldn't suprise me.

      I'm not out any money so my thirst for blood is minimal :D

  7. Rob Zombie was in town and this dude is awesome live. I went with a buddy of mine who doesn't really like metal, but Rob Zombie is his thing. Me and him were really big on Hellbilly Deluxe when it came out. That was 8 years ago when were starting highschool going into grade 8.

    For the occasion I had some really good weed. Long story short, the weed is said to be grown by a member of the BC marijuana party. We rolled the dope, drank all the beer, and made our way down to Pacific Coliseum. While waiting for the lineup to die down, we blazed a joint, and made our way inside.

    Sure enough the source of the weed felt like it had checked out. Real smooth flavor, no nasty fertilizers, incredible uplifting stone, without the paranoia and downerness. Pure Sativa strain. Indicas and 50/50's suck.

    We made our way inside and sat down. Anthrax came out, and it was nice getting a chance to see them play. Joey Belladonna at one point asked "Are you guys having fun? Sure smells like it!" As copious amounts of weed smoke was in the air. They did pretty good, but a good portion of the crowd was more interested in Zombie.

    These dudes sitting in front of us wanted to match their weed with us when Zombie hit the stage. Zombie finished setting up and American Witch started playing and we smoked the dope. Zombie puts on a good show, he's got a great sense of showmanship. Considering he was fucked out of his mind, he did good. He had to have been royally baked and/or drunk.

    A couple of tunes he was stumbling through his words, but even in spite of that, he did a hell of a job. At one point he says "You know, there has been a disturbing trend at our concerts of late. People have been having sex and leaving condoms behind. Disturbing thing is, we don't know which song it happens during! But I'm guessin that it's this one, SUPERBEAST!"

    Halfway through Thunderkiss '65 they ended up having a strange interlude. I thought Zombie had lost his marbles. Then Zombie started asking for song requests. They ended up playing Sweet Dreams followed by Enter The Sandman. Afterwards they finished off Thunder Kiss '65. I heard his show coming up in California was cancelled. Seeing the state that Zombie was in, I'm not at all suprised.

    Ever get the chance to, go see him. He's a hell of a performer.

      Heh, I saw Zombie in '99. That was like the first real concert I ever went to. One of the best I've seen too. The dude sure knows how to put on a show, and he suuuure did love explosions.

      Rob Zombie rocks. I only wish he'd come to tour Europe some time.

  8. I could rant in detail to a T as to what transpired the night before, but I just have one event in particular to share. I can assure you, it's disturbing. It was my buddy's 21st and we were at a bar with a bunch of friends. I had this pitcher of beer which I had just poured myself a beer out of.

    To the bloody point, this chick asks me "Can I have a sip of beer?" I says "Yes."

    I was going to get her a glass, but the bitch just drinks straight out of the pitcher. Unbelievably gross and disturbing right? Some bitch just drinking out of your pitcher, what's the big deal? Well, what if I told you there is a very good possibility that this chick has herpes.

    It's not 100% confirmed as she's obviously not going to blab about it. But within that circle of people it's been confirmed. Not just as some viscious evil rumor either. Nevertheless, I told everyone who drank out of the pitcher and dumped it out in the bathroom.

    A case of alcohol abuse I know, that sweet beer dumped into the urinal trough. The fact this chick drank straight out of the pitcher like that tells me she probably is diseased and being a real sociopathic bitch about sharing the misery.

  9. If you dislike long blurbs, find something else pleasant to do other than be a complete bitch. So yeahs, yesterday was a great Canada day I must say.

    Things were really great the day before as well. I know there are douches out there that hate the world cup. I suppose if you don't like that you should stop reading as well. Bwahaha. I was bummed about the Netherlands being booted out, but also having Italian blood in my veins gives me hope for Italy to triumph over all.

    My Ukrainian buddy was too paranoid to watch the game down on commercial drive. For fear of being mocked and possibly attacked by cocky dirty wops. I told him that's incredibly paranoid and retarded, but at the same time possibly not far from the truth.

    So we watched the game at his place whilst consuming copious amounts of beer. People watch the world cup sober? Shame on them! Anyways, I was able to relish in the utter defeat of Ukraine to the hands of the great dirty wops of Italy.

    I don't mind calling them dirty wops because I can get away with it. That, and there are wops out there that say "You're either full or nothing." That is you're FBI (Full Blooded Italian), or your an impure mixture of shit.

    I love you Mussolini. So July 4th is battle of the Fascists, Hitler vs Mussolini. Mussolini was Hitler's butt puppet, so it should make for an interesting soccer match.

    Later that day we ended up in the rich part of Vancouver. Which happens to be westvan. We're talking $1000000 properties as the minimum. Anyways we were out at Ambleside because they have a nice beach and 2 beautiful artificial turf soccer fields.

    We were on the beach, drank some more beer, and then went to go play soccer. We ended up having a big ass game with all these other people who wanted to play soccer. All walks of life and race, it was good fun.

    I hadn't played a real game of soccer in years. I did pretty good at the position I used to play, which was defenseman. Team I was on ended up winning. Met some new friends, might endup having another game again with them.

    Fast forward to Canada day! Went to White Pine which is situated in Port Coquitlam. Beautiful ass fuckin beaches, clear, clean, crisp, cold, freshwater, surrounded by loads of goregous trees. I can't stress how beautiful this place is. Swam around, soaked in the sun, had a hell of a time.

    Later on we were planning to hit up the Orange No.5. Which is a Gentleman's club located in a shitty area of downtown Vancouver. Lo and behold, a buddy of mine ends up getting rear ended in a traffic accident. Wasn't so bad, because my Ukranian buddy phones me up.

    Tells me to head downtown to the Morrissey. His Cousin's Husband is in a band and had a gig that night. I said sure. There was a record producer from LA there, as well some local talent scouts. Name of the band is the Manvils.

    They sounded pretty good. Real good rock 'n roll, something I haven't heard in a while. Most rock nowadays is in a sad state. I figure if these dudes make it big they'll be able to fix that. It wasn't beattheshitouttapeopleinamoshpitmetal, but I had myself a good time.

    Especially considering this chick came onto to me. Typically it's me showing interest and making the effort, but by god it's fun being wanted. She told me she's been takin belly dancing classes for over year now.

    By the way she was grinding with me, I really do take her word for it. She gave me her name and number, I look forward to seeing her again. Oddly enough there were members of the Canadian pop punk band "Billy Talent" at the show as well. I think they had done a show for the local alternative radio station earlier in the day.

    Not that I like them, but I thought it was cool that these established artists were there just checking this small ass band out, and chilling with regular people. It was also kinda funny seeing Ian D'Sa looking over at me as this chick was grinding against me and sticking her tongue down my throat.

    EDIT: A great development to this turn of recent events. Well my so called "buddy" who claimed to have been in a rear end accident, didn't get into an accident at all. He was too spineless to say "I don't want you to come to the peeler bar." So he pretended he got into an accident.

    I love karma, because I was able to get right in his face today and thanked him for being such a fucking loser. Because he decided to show his true colors and be a fucking loser, I had a way better time. Because he decided to be fucking loser douchebag, I met a girl that wants to fuck my brains out.

    I dunno if karma is a religous thing at all, but I must say I'm a firm believer.

  10. Was the name of the movie I worked on yesterday. The plot has the makings of another cliche R rated comedy. Jaime Kennedy plays this dude who is somehow 12 years old still acting like it's the 80's but it's the present day and he's in a 30 year old man's body.

    That's the easiest way I can describe with a signature runon sentence. Anyways the scene I was in was this hiphop nightclub scene. Before they shoot a take, they'd play this rap song, just to get everybody dancing. Then they'd call action and kill the music.

    I got this retarded song in my head, having heard it all yesterday. Considering I can't really dance, I dance quite well. My whiteman boogey is extreme pwnage l33tz0rs on the floor. I was keepin it gangsta and thuggin' it lol.

    Movies. LOL. The director, at least in his early 40's was telling us to keep it "Usherized". As he admitted he couldn't think of a better term, and had no real familiarity with trendy hiphop shit. To simulate people dripping with sweat from dancing, they put baby oil gel on us.

    The highlight of the scene had to have been Rowdy Roddy Piper. Fuckin' Rowdy Roddy Piper man! Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luther from Smallville) puts drugs in John Kennedy's drink. He then goes apeshit.

    Anyways, eventually he starts tripping out to the point where he starts hallucinating. Rowdy Roddy Piper pops out of nowhere.

    Roddy: "Are you on Drugs? Cause if you're on drugs you better pay the Piper!"

    John: "No Rowdy Roddy Piper! I don't do drugs!"

    Roddy: "Well then if you're not drugs, THEN IT MUST BE THE POWER OF THE HOTROD!" -when they were rehearsing this, right after he said that line he said "That line is so fucking gay! Who writes this shit!?"

    Michelle Trachtenberg, (from Euro Trip) was also there. Michael Rosenbaum came up to this chick I was talking to and started hitting on her. Another highlight was Emmanuel Lewis (former childstar played Webster)

    The protagonist pops out of nowhere and starts telling him about macking on ho's. It was priceless.

  11. Saw them last night, it's 12:42am as I write this. What a fuckin' show. Much needed fix of metal. Me and my brother's buddies got real hammered and showed up just as the 2nd act left the stage.

    The openers were, some bumfuck crap, and God Forbid, just as exciting as bumfuck crap. Beer garden was packed, The Vancouver Canuck's got their asses kicked. Retards can't play hockey worth shit. Chimera was the 3rd band up and they did not dissapoint.

    After they finished the beer garden at the Croation Cultural centre was closed. I'm assume they sold out of alcohol. Mosh pit was pretty good. Typically I hold my own, but this time around I was dishin more abuse than I was taking. Naturally there's the huge fuckers that beat everyone's ass in, the worst injury that was inflicted on me was a shot to the forehead.

    Obivously not a life changing shot to the forehead, I was still standing afterwards. At one point this crazy giant fucker with tatoo sleeves approached my brother and said "Let's beat people" with a real sadistic grin on his face.

    They went crazy. Ramble Ramble. Last time I saw Arch Enemy they really fucking disappointed. Last time they played at the headbangers faggot MTV tour, one of their guitarists had a major fuckup. Either his rig shorted out, or the soundman was too busy wankin it to notice no sound was coming out of his rig. They walked off after only 4 songs.

    This time they came out angry as fuck and ripped shit up. Angela Gossow really breaks the stereotypical female metal vocalist. While all these other chicks do that melodcial opera nonsense, this bitch screams and growls just as good as any male vocalist out there. Almost erotic I must say.

    Dunno what it is, but I find metal chicks hard to hit on. They either got boyfriends, they're lesbians, or they just aren't interested. Throw me into a pub or club, and I find the females which inhabit those places are much easier to hit on. Can't win either way.

      I dunno, when you see all these so called metal bands with women vocalists actually singin melodic shit as opposed to screamin their guts out.

      Good music, but just not as good as the older albums.

      I know a guy who I went to college with who fuckin hated them. He said they kicked ass when they had their old ass male vocalist and that bitch ruined the band and he said she'd die, so the band could find a vocalist to put it into it's former glory.

  14. It was my great Nonna Rossi's funeral today. Nonna - Italian for grandmother. My great grandma lived for 97 years, quite a long life I must say. She lived through both world wars and all that Jazz.

    I didn't really feel that sad. Not for any other reason other than I hardly knew her. I may have met her once when I was an infant. It was a sombre occaision but I didn't get that emotional. It was kinda of fucked up being in church.

    I can't recall the last time I stepped into a church. I think it was for a mass when one of my Nonna's relatives died how many odd years ago/ All these people were chanting prayers in unison and it gave me that cult feeling. There was bagpipes, played by a distant 3rd cousin of mine which I never knew existed.

    After the service at the church, there was a procession for the casket. The bagpipes played and we all made our way outside. The casket was loaded up into the hearse. Across the street there was a sexy ass Black Lamborghini Gallardo at a stop light which stole my attention for a little bit.

    We all made our way to the cemetery. The casket was brought into this beautiful crypt. The crypt was this wonderful structure above ground level. It had two floors in it. The walls housed caskets and cremated remains behind these marble walls which are sealed up. Although it housed ashes and corpses, it felt quite relaxing and peaceful just being inside of it.

    Last rites and prayers were performed. Afterwards Great Nonna Rossi was placed into her final resting place inside a section of the crypt. I also got to see my Nonno's (grandpa) grave. He had died before I was born, he was an alcoholic, and it's no wonder I like to drink.

    After all that we went back to one of my relatives houses. There we chit chatted and drank and I met all this family I never knew existed. Aunts, Uncles, cousins, 2nd cousins, 3rd cousins.

    Probably the best funeral I've ever attended.

  15. First off, Me and my friend haven't seen the DOOM movie. It was rented out. We made another attempt last night, rented out again. ALL 40 FUCKING COPIES of it at Blockbuster. Hard to believe I know, it's a mind fuck just seeing the shelf at Blockbuster.

    Why celebrate Valentines Day when there's the possibility of fucking on any given day of the year?

    There are three reasons people get into a relationship: EMOtional gratification, financial gratification, and sexual gratification.

    Thursday night out, resulted in sexual gratfication for me. And no, I didn't just go home and gratify myself. :D It was Karaoke night at the 'ole pub. I was invited out by my friend and his Girlfriend again. Only this time my buddy's girl brought a different friend with her this time.

    I had met her before 2 months back. Blonde, pretty, boobs, and bella culo. They were relatively drunk before I got to the bar. They drank half a two-six of Bacardi before they got there.

    I decided to play catch up and started downin beer. This dude did a crazy fucking performance of a Zepplin song. Forget the name now, it's that one that's on all those Cadillac commercials. He sounded like he was lip synching, but he wasn't. It was freaky how close he sounded.

    I signed up to sing the Rob Zombie song Dragula. That was pretty fun, I can't sing worth shit, unless it's Monty Python. I can scream and growl though. Which is why I only ever do those type of Songs in Karaoke.

    Later we all stumbled out of the bar and into a nearby chinese restaurant. Afterwards we stumbled back to my buddy's place. They asked me if I was going to crash there. It would've been only another 5 blocks for me to walk home.

    Of course I crashed there on the couch. My buddy and his girlfriend went into his room. His girlfriend's friend was asleep on a makeshift bed which was just a matress on the floor with your typical bedding.

    The lights were out, she says to me "Are you really going to sleep on that cold couch?" So I took my shirt off and got into the bed. Then she says "You do know I'm not wearing any pants right?" So I removed my pants and then we fucked.

    Afterwards I found she had a boyfriend, it's pretty funny.

      this is needless to say one of the stupidest threads ever. Not because of the original post, but because people who supposedly "dont give a shit" are STILL posting insults in it. Wipe the fucking tears and stop giggling behind them as you manically post idiotic comebacks to rebuild your self esteem.

  16. My best friend suggested the idea of drinking a large bottle of booze and renting the Doom movie tonight. Naturally I obliged, it should be interesting. We intend to insult and deconstruct this fine disasterpiece of modern cinema.

    He brought up the idea over beer and wings yesterday. It wasn't just any regular beer and wing night at the local pub though. He and his girlfriend were trying to hook me up with his girlfriend's friend.

    I had a few worries at the idea. What if I didn't find her attractive? What if we had nothing in common? What if we totally ended up hating each other?

    It went well. She turned out to be quite attractive, and quite talkative. There was a lone hot wing just swimming in a pool hot sauce. She told me "I'll give you a buck if you eat it." "That'd be a waste of a dollar." I told her.

    So she upped the bet, "I'll buy you a drink if you eat the hot wing, and lick the paper clean of all the hotsauce." The paper in quesion is what is used to line the plastic basket.

    I took her up on the offer. I ate the hot wing and then licked the paper clean. Then says "I can't believe you licked all that." What I said next would either ruin my chances or improve them.

    "You should see what else I like to lick." I said ever so flirtatiously. She started giggling. Exactly what I had hoped for. We're supposed to all meet up again sometime later this week.

    Should prove to be interesting.

      Oh, and I totally envisioned you covered in hot sauce as you ver flirtatious with the talkative attractive girl. But considering that she made such a bet, I figured that she's of the kind that don't mind getting dirty.

  17. In Flames play tonight, I'm stoked. Should be a good show. I've seen them before and they did a bang up job. First concert of 2006, I'm excited.

    I quit Diablo II again. It's sorta like a virtual crack pipe. Kill shit, pick up shit off the ground, kill more shit, build up char. It's simple, and fun. The last time I quit Diablo II was because I made a HC char.

    For those that aren't familiar with DII, let alone give a fuck, a HC only lives once. You die, and the char is rendered permanently unplayable.

    So after my char died I said to myself "why the hell do I play this game in the first place? waste of time!"

    Sure enough this time around my lvl56 Necromancer died. At first I was like "FUCK!" and then once again "Why the fuck did I just waste my time playing this game?" It's a vicious circle.

    On the plus side, I probably won't go near it for quite some time.

      The newest CD is actually pretty good, especially when compared to the previous two. Last time I saw them w/ Motorhead they played mostly their STYE and RTR songs, with Episode 666. They were pretty shitty then.

      Now they sound good since you mentioned them playing their older stuff, newest album stuff. Do you remember the setlist?

      (They need to play Stand Ablaze and Lunar Strain, goddamn.)

      Also, yes, Trivium lick cock. Murphy's Law sounds like average hardcore band with gay slam riffs. Devil Driver I'm no fan of, but apparently they are good live.


      Sounds like a good show, maybe I should see them with Sepultura.

      Soundtrack to your escape was the reason I didn't go to see In Flames last year when they came here :P That album is just terrible. But yeah, Come Clarity is a bit of a step up, but not by a whole lot.

      Also I quite like Trivium :P Probably the best out of the 91854735678571047 'metalcore' bands around these days. Well, maybe second behind Himsa.

      Just because a band releases a new shitty cd doesn't mean you shouldn't bother seeing them. Especially when the band has a huge discography, they'll play a few new songs, and the rest of their set list will be from other good albums. At least that's usually what happens. Alot of people have condemned Metallica, yet people will still see them play. Not to hear St. Anger, but all the good old shit.

      I've seen Himsa live, I wouldn't say they're the best, but by no means are they shit either. But my favorite would have to be Bleeding Through. Seen them live twice, and they're awesome. Love their new cd. I also have a crush on their Keyboardist Marta. I wanna fuck her brains out :)

      mine would to be not to lie. And this time it would be for real, so if i tried to break it it wouldnt work. The color of the pen that I hold in my hand is rrrrrroyal blue!

  19. Saw Children of Bodom last night, and man it was a good show. I tried writing about it last night, but I was too hammered to operate the computer properly. The screen was dancing around, and I lacked the motor skills to type something that made sense.

    I tried playing Doom for a bit, but it started giving me motion sickness. At first I thought I wouldn't be seeing the show. Went to ticketmaster, they told me it was sold out. Fuck.

    So me and my friend went to this bar & grill and started drinking. Bellinis were on special for $5.00. For those that are wondering what a Bellini is, think of a slurpee with booze in it. Peach schnapps, white rum slurpee concoction dumped into a martini glass. Then they pour in sangria. Very tasty.

    We each had about 5 of those, 2 plates of suicide chicken wings, and curly fries. The suicide wings are pretty spicy, but there is other places that serve wings alot spicier. So hot in fact, you have to sign a waiver saying the establishment isn't responsible for possible health complications as a result of ingesting them.

    We paid the $75 dollar bill plus $8 tip, and then hopped on the Robson bus. I told my friend we should try for a scalp. He wasn't up for it, so I left him on the bus as I got off outside the Granville Skytrain station. I hopped on the skytrain and rode it till I hit commercial drive.

    I hopped off and began the walk towards the Croation Cultural centre. It was dark, damp, cold, and foggy. Perfect Bodom weather. I wasn't even halfway there and I already ran into some Bodom fanatics.

    Finally I got there. It was an hour before the show, and already there was at least a hundred people there. Many were drinking, smoking dope, and screaming Bodom. A few people were pounding Bodom out of their car stereos whilst waiting in anticipation for the show.

    I stood there knowing that this was a show I just had to be a part of. Stood still in the same spot for 20 minutes, watching the drunken spectacle, waiting to score a scalp. "Anyone need tickets?"

    It came from a group of guys and chicks drinking near their cars in the parking lot. I walked over and bought the ticket for $40.00. $18 markup is fine by me. Time passes and finally the line up begins to swell. Drunks keep chanting "BODOM! BODOM! BODOM!"

    7:00pm, the doors opens. The show is all ages, but the Croats know how to do an all ages show. The Croation Cultural center has two auditoriums. One of which, becomes a beer garden. Display your two pieces of ID to prove your at least the Canadian legal drinking age of 19 years and your in.

    Heinekken, Miller Genuine Draft, Stella Artois, Corona, Smirnoff Ice, take your pick, all priced at $5 each. They also had two tvs, both of which were broadcasting the hockey game, Canucks vs Black Hawks. I bought 3 Heinekkens and watched the game while waiting.

    Amon Amarth hit the stage and ripped shit up. It was their 1st time in Vancouver, and they said it was a real beautiful city. It's really the same as any other city, but heres the secret behind it. Think of Vancouver as a giant doom map. For the Sky texture you have all these beautiful mountain ranges to look at.

    If you were to replace that sky texture with an empty sky and flatlands it'd be just like any other city.

    ANYWAYS, Amon Amarth did a pretty good performance. I was only familiar with their material off of Vs the World, and The Crusher, but it was good hearing their other stuff as well. They finished off their set with "Death in Fire" which is probably their best song and my most favorite of theirs.

    Download it, give her a listen. It won't kill ya. They said they'll be back, and I'm looking forward to their return. I ventured back into the beer garden. I bought 3 more Heinekkens and was back to watching the hockey game. By this time I was feeling really fucking cut.

    Suddenly this chick grabs a seat right beside me, and we strike up conversation. I remember our conversation in great detail, but for the life of me, I could not remember her fucking name. I bought more drinks, for me and her as well.

    We ended up drinking and talking for so long, I realized I had missed Trivium. I could care less, never heard of 'em. Came here chiefly for Bodom. Bodom hits the stage. I slam my last beer and run right into that mosh pit.

    They did a good set, a nice variety of their catalogue. They played everything from Silent Night Bodom Night, to Are you Dead Yet? It was a fucking killer concert. They put on a great show.

    I did't see that chick after the show, and I wish my drunk ass had made an attempt to get her number, but it's all good. I stumbled into a MacDonalds later and ordered a Double Quarter Pounder meal, and an additional Double Quarter Pounder.

    MMMMM.... Steak Dinner.

      Their new album is cool.

      You should've seen Trivium, they're cool too.

  20. I didn't originally plan on seeing them, however my brother was getting a pin put in his leg, so I got his ticket. I went with his friend to whom had a ticket as well.

    All ages shows suck, no booze, stupid kids, their fucking dumb parents, and jail bait city. Fucking leave me alone 13 yr old girl, go home and play with Barbie. At the age of 20, the lowest I'd go is 17, 16 if she were exceptionally hot.

    As usual, the openers suck. But these ones were super dogshit, dogshit beyond dogshit. We had timed our arrival perfectly, Death by Stereo were just finished their set on our arrival.

    An amusing thing to note about Death By Stereo, my brother's friend used to work with this chick that got gangbanged by the band, so she'd get free tickets and give him some.

    Anyways, after suckness that was Death By Stereo, the suckage known as Saosin went up on stage. There was this nice moment of silence after they played their played song.

    "FUCKIN SUCK!" I shouted, all the way from the back of the Commodore Ballroom. The frontman remained his composure and began laughing. I'm glad he finds humor in the fact that he sucks giant horse cock. The kids there don't know any better and cheer his dumbfucking ass on anyways. Horrible songs, faggotty vocals, it was horrendous.

    A gentleman who beared the words Reign in Blood on his back, came over for some small talk, about the crap we had the pleasure of viewing. The sight of his girfriend momentarily put me in a state of animal lust.

    Finally Avenged hits the stage and rips shit up. They didn't play anything off of their 1st album though. The moshpit was fierce, I'll be sore for a few days. There was 4 tall, well built guys that threw people around pretty good.

    I got hit in the head twice, once in the face, my body is covered bruises. There was this stupid kid in the pit with a spiky bracelet, and ones that'd just punch everybody. Some of the younger kids were pounding the shit out of the kids younger than them, it was kinda fucked up.

    I got bloody scratches on my neck from this little cocksucker's spiky bracelet. Were he taller or hit any higher I would've lost a fucking eye. He couldn't have been older than 17, and I was too blinded with rage to care.

    I flew into this giant dude and he pushed me and I went flying. Heading on a collision course with me was the little shithead. I whaled him in the stomach just as we crashed into each other.

    Me and two other dudes pulled him up off ground and he left the pit.

    Something to note about Avenged, the vocalist Shadows, apparently blew a major blood vessel from screaming. Because of this, he couldn't scream anymore, and had to actually learn how to sing. Which gave way to a more commercially digestable album.

    It's quite an excuse to take the band in a new direction. If you ask me, I bet he didn't even really fuck up his voice. I liked their second album alot, and the appeal of the 3rd album is Bat Country. Which is about the late great, Hunter S Thompson.

    It was fun times. Children of Bodom plays here in two days, I don't think I'll be back in moshing condition by then. Trivium and Amon Amarth are opening, so it might be good all the way through.

    1. spank

      CoB and Trivium, awesome!

  21. They were on tour with Hella, Between The Buried And Me, Horse The Band. All 3 of which I never heard of. I went with my brother and thought about inviting my friend. I thought it would be a bad idea because me and my bro had tickets whilst my friend didn't have one.

    It would be shitty if we go there only to find out he can't get in cause tickets are sold out. My brother assured me "These shows never sell out, all the concerts I've been to, not one at full capacity."

    What ends up happening? You guessed it, sold out show, my friend gets in asks to buy a ticket, sold out, he has to leave. I wanted to step outside and go talk to him but the miserable Ihavestickinmyass Bouncer says "You can leave but you can't come back in."

    I drove down and was the sober driver. My brother had broken his leg, and I couldn't leave my brother, so hopefully my friend isn't too fucking choked.

    The doors were supposed to be open at 8:00pm, but opened at 8:20pm instead. The first band up, was apparently drunk or something and they misplaced their keyboard or some shit.

    They had a real tripped out sound, like oldschool Mr.Bungle mixed with Nintendo sounding keyboards, it was pretty rad. They were being dumbfucks on stage and after 3 songs they started babbling on about their sad tale of not being able to find the keyboard and being dumb and drunk. The frontman thought he was a comedian doing a routine.

    So me and my brother did the polite thing and told them to "SHUT THE FUCK UP AND PLAY! NO ONE GIVES A SHIT! PAID MONEY TO HEAR YOU PLAY MUSIC! NOT SPEAK!"

    Being polite and courteous never worked so well. They did more songs then had to cut their set short because of the late start time which was too bad. Too bad because the next two bands licked nuts.

    I saw quite a few people with shirts and hoodies with this white face on them. I was wondering to myself "Where had I seen it before?" Then it hit me. Job's current avatar.

    During the intermission I had this chick come up to me and say "Hey sexy." I had never had that happen to me, I didn't know how to react really. So I started laughing and responded with "Not nearly as sexy as you are." We made small talk for a bit, and then I decided to just go for it.

    "Got a number?" I asked. "Yeah, but my boyfriend wouldn't like that. He wouldn't go to the show with me, I'm pissed off at him."

    So I asked, "Pissed off enough that you'll say fuck him and give me your number?"

    "Sorry." she said. I says "Thought so." and left it at that. Dumb broad.

    Next two bands blew anal monkey rectum. Never in my life had I seen the opener kick the shit out of the bands that follow it. The third bands suckage just fucking dragged on and on, seemingly never ending.

    Dillinger Finally hits the fucking stage, moshpit time for me! Good pit, quite friendly. There was none of those dudes with like the 6 foot 6 frame, 280lbs just beating everyone in sight.

    There were emo kids but they gave up on their dumbshit karate dance crap, and everything went all out thrash styles. For a sober concert it was fun times. Although for the two bands before Dillinger I really wanted to drown out the suckage with booze.

      Is that that band that sounds exactly like the crap on the radio but is somehow more credible because they haven't actually made it on the radio? Or is that every fucking band? Yeah. You see kids, when that happens, it doesn't mean they have more integrity. It means they weren't savvy enough. Or they sucked the wrong cock.

      What the Hell? I don't even like Dillinger Escape Plan but what you just said was straight from the jerkstore.

      Anyway, I don't think I've ever really seen an opening band I liked. The closest I've come to liking an opening band was Kidneythieves, who opened for KMFDM. I downloaded some of their stuff but in the end they just sound like a poor man's Switchblade Symphony. Bands that were particularly bad that stand out in mine include this band that opened for Skinny Puppy with Chris Vrenna in it. Can't even remember what they were called, but they were really bad. The entire crowd just kind of stared blankly at them as if to say "get the Hell off the stage so we can see Puppy, you fags. I'm only standing here so I can have a primo spot for seeing them." At least that's what I was thinking.

      I also remember this band called Tricky opening for Tool that was just horrible, and 16Volt opening for KMFDM, and they sounded like numetal mixed with bad industrial. Ugh.

      Well obviously it depends on what radio station you listen to, but I have never heard anything like Dillinger Escape Plan on any major radio station. If you want to hear what they sound like, they have a flash player on their website:

  22. Can't really say I saw anybody that anyone has heard of, but for no names it was pretty good suprisingly. My buddy works for a small record company, so I didn't have to pay cover, which meant more money for drinks. The venue was the Waldorf.

    The Waldorf is situated near the Vancouver Longshoreman Locale #whateverthefuckitis dispatching hall. There couldn't be smarter place to stick a bar/hotel/cold beer & wine store. Alot of the alchy longshoreman go there, be it before or after they get dispatched.

    Interestingly enough, I was talking to a dude that was wearing an ILWU jacket. He was asking me if the headliner was on next. Turns out he was a foreman. I asked him if he knew of my brother and oldman.

    Then the vocalist from the act had just finished, and foreman went up to him and said something along the lines of "I'm a foreman down on the waterfront, I'm in charge, I make good coin, but I'll never be as happy as you are when you're up on that stage, because you're up there, doing what you love. You're having the time of your life right now."

    I thought that was pretty cool.

    Then the 3rd act had come and gone. My buddy had gone out for a smoke and I was looking for him and then I ended up talking to this dude that was pretty whacked. Further into the conversation, I understood why. "Would you like some free mushrooms?" he asked. "Of course." I responded, and he gave me a nice handful.

    "I got half a pound of these things for $200. I've been trying to get rid of them. My buddy, that native dude, that was singing and plays bass, I hadn't seen him in 20 years."

    So then I asked him "How much can ya give me for $20?"

    "A big bag." he answered. I got roughly half an ounce. It's such a beautiful sight that I'll have to take pictures. I haven't sampled the merchandise, but he said they're pretty potent, and not to eat more 2 grams at once.

    Judging by the way the dude was speaking and acting, he had eaten more than that.

    The final act came on eventually. The vocalist/rhythm guitarist was this chick. She mighta been lead guitarist, but meh, I was gooned pretty good. She had some crazy tattoos, her arms were pratically sleeves. She wasn't extremely hot.

    I find tattoos on most chicks pretty sexy. Not to mention, she could sing, and fuckin play guitar. I'd love to see this chick beat the shit out of Avril. I'd tap her. =)

    My bros bday today, so later on today it's off to Memphis Blues for some crazy BBQ, then Drunkfest at the Cambie.

  23. They're still shooting X-Men 3 today, but for me it ended yesterday. The first day, it was do absolutely nothing in the holding area.

    The second day we finally went to set, it was mostly establishing shots for the Mutant encampment, and a special effect. They were supposed to do a part where Jean Grey as phoenix walks through the encampment. They didn't, she did however, take a walk around the set. Famke Janssen walked right by me. Yowza!

    The 3rd day was Magneto's monologue. He gave a facist speech about Muntant supremacy, the extermination of humanity and any mutants that stand in the way.

    As soon as he got on set, sure enough somebody yelled "You rule Gandalf!" and then Ian did a line out of LOTR. I'm not really into LOTR but it was the line where he says something about the raven. And then everyone started cheering.

    Then he started doing the monologue, and we were suppossed to cheer at certain points in the monologue.

    Magneto:"They wish to cure us!"

    Mutants:"NO! NEVER! ETC"

    Magneto:"But I say we are the cure!"

    Mutants:"YEAH! WE ARE! ETC"

    It goes on like that. Only problem was they couldn't get the same enthusiam out of us, as when Ian did Gandalf. Also after yelling take after take, one starts to lose their voice. And there was alot of that. So after we finished, and went on a break I walked around set and was talking to some other extras.

    Then Ian Mckellen walks by and says "Hello." We said hi back to him, and he continued on his way. Yeah I know, big deal. "OMGZ! IAN MCKELLEN SEZ HELLO! I R L33TZ LOLZ!"

    He's really cool, and not a stuck up prick at all. Also after Ian came by we saw the dude that plays Pyro walked by and stood there, like he was waiting for someone to talk to him, but no one cared.

    The fourth day, was more of the same, Magneto doing his speech. Only Wolverine walks through the crowd. I stood right by him as he began his walk through the crowd. During rehearsal he asked me if I could move over a foot.

    There's much more to ramble on about, but I'm really sick. Ontop of doing the extra work, I was also doing my nightime job ontop of it, so I've had little sleep until today.

    There were also extras who got fired.

    Since it was shot in a large wooded park, people weren't allowed to smoke directly on the set, as the forest is "DUH!" extremely flammable. People were warned about it, and then there were people who persisted and were fired.

    There was a person fired for being drunk.

    5 people were fired for smoking weed.

    There's alot of tents on the set, and 3 guys and a girl were fired for having sex in one. Yes, they were all in the same tent simultaneously.

    Finally, one person was fired for shooting up heroin behind a trailer.

    All in all it was loads of fun, and probably the most fun I've ever had doing it.

  24. Well yeah, my company is losing the postal contract, so me and a whole lotta people are going to be out of jobs.

    I've enough hours to collect unemployment insurance. But out of no where yesterday, my extra agency phones me. "Would you be interested in working 5 days on X-Men 3?" Naturally I said yes. Today they phoned me with the details and I go in for a wardrobe fitting tommorrow.

    It's supposed to be some scene in the forest and I'm in the mutant resistance army. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I get gut open by wolverine, that'd be dope.

      The only thing better than this would be playing an extra in a George Romero film.

      A few of my friends got a part in a zombie movie made by a local director called "Carnival of the Damned". Sadly, the director is pretty inept at business, so we'll be lucky if the movie is ever released.

      How much do you get for being an extra?

      Depends upon if your in the performers union. Everybody gets 1.5x for over time after 8hrs and 2x after 12hrs.

      If your union your getting paid $20.00 some odd dollars per hour, non union is half of that. To be in the union you must have 6 credits, which means speaking parts/stunts/special skills etc.

      I can't go into too much detail, because I signed a paper saying Fox owns my soul. Not exactly in those words, but with the way they word shit, wow. I also saw a Lamborghini Gallardo on my way back from work with a vanity plate which read LAUGH.

      Anyways, I came into the extras holding area in the morning, and I was in Goth girl heaven/hell. Holy shit. They really dug out the freaks for this gig. One dude looked like Fredrick Johanson if he ever turned goth.

      He was really tall, with 2 feet platform shoes to boot, Black long bushy hair, with the eye makeup, black velvet suit with white pinstripes. It was really funny. Plus his rivethead galfriend was extremely sexalicious.

      There were many babes that I wanted to hit on, but as one must keep in mind, it's work, not a dating service. Even though that sorta thing happens all the time. My wardrobe is ultra crappy compared to what alot of other peeps wear.

      We didn't see any action on set all day. We never left the holding area. It was 12 hrs of socializing, smoking, stuffing our faces, drinking/drugs, and doing whatever it takes to kick the boredom and amuse one self. A fellow ever so cleverly taped a sign which read "Designated smoking area" to his crotch.

      All of the shit they filmed today had to have been all close ups, and angles where they wouldn't need any mutants in the mutant camp lurking in the background.

  25. Ook. Ook. I bought a new rig a few days ago. Been trying to get the internet to work properly on it, and what do you know? It decides to work all by itself one night. At first I was like, "OMG use 7 grand and build sexy pimp machine!"

    Then I decided it was way more feasible to budget myself to 2000 of those canucks bucks. Anyhoo, I ended up with

    A funky chinese seethrough Xion case with blue light

    Amd Athlon 64 2.2ghz processor

    Asus PCI express motherboard with built in sound card

    Free Half Life 2 with purchase of processor and motherboard

    1gb of Ram

    Nvidia Geforce 6600GT 128mb video card

    200gb HD for my newfound pirate emporium

    Wireless network card - it's a real tempermental cunt, but it works now.

    5.1 surround sound headphones - at $57.00 cdn these things are fucking nuts, you have to set the volume VERY low, or you will lose your hearing

    DVD writer - see 200gb HD

    1.44mb floppy drive - yes I'm a putz

    17 inch LCD monitor - no ghosting! hazzar!

    Black, Joe blow Logitech Keyboard

    Some crazy ass gaming Logitech mouse - ultra high sensitivity, very fun with FPS

    After cursed PST - 7% Provincial Sales Tax and GST 7% Goods and Services Tax, it came out to exactly $2005.86

    Now it's not one those crazy ass dual core computers with the $800 GFX card, but it's a huge step up from the Ye Olde Shitbox PII.
