Definitely not snuff... Especially considering he like, didn't even wipe out.


And another thing, he's obviously the chair lift technician. That's how they check the cable.

True story.

I like Darren. He is my friend.

I like you and him. He likes me. And I like him.

He likes you I HOOOOOPE.

I'll hope you were joking. Post product review vids and/or adds and you'll likely be banned instantly.
Dag made this site, so he can post whatever he likes...the rest of us can't.

I have a friend who I went to school with who is gay. There was a group of about five or six of us who were really close friends. We all suspected he was gay but it just wasn't an issue and it never came up in conversation or anything. When we finished school his family moved abroad for a couple of years but then things went a bit wrong for them and they moved back. It was great to see him again.

After about a month of him being back we'd seen each other a few times and I got a phone call from him. He sounded a little weird, like something was up and he said 'I've got something to tell you.'

I said straight away 'are you gay?'

There was a huge pause and he eventually said 'Er, yes. You're the third person to say that.'

I told him we'd suspected it for a long time. It never came up in the same way that you wouldn't turn round to one of us and say 'hey, you like girls, right?' It was an all boys school so there weren't girls around all the time to force the issue. None of us were mega cool and although a few had girlfriends every now and then none of them were particularly serious so most of the time when we hung out it was just the guys anyway.

Even so we'd all got a reasonable gaydar on us and knew he liked boys. I'd be very surprised if a family didn't realise their kid/brother/sister was gay.

Only one of our friends had any issue with him being gay, the rest of us just got on with things as normal as nothing had changed for us, we already knew. It was good to be able to talk to him about it though, or more for him to be able to talk to us. By this time most of us were in relationships and it's been really interesting seeing his relationship with his boyfriend flourish over time as my relationship with my now wife has done.

I saw the whole thing as a sign that I'd found some pretty good friends. No judging, no awkwardness, no nothing. Good guys.

Oh, apart from the one who did have a problem. Funnily enough there was only one religious person amongst our group of friends too...

hey Zombieater,
It seems you've been hit by the Chingalera hate. Don't take it personally, (even though he likely meant it that way), he's been going ape shit lately. He's taken to calling ME a stalker publicly, even though I have had him ignored for days now so I only see what he DOES now, not what he writes. He's private messaged me 5 times since he complained I'm stalking him, my only response was 'you just can't stop, can you' (and Comment hidden because you are ignoring chingalera.).
Sorry he killed your video out of spite, he's done it to me too, and is working on taking over the sift with his ridiculousness. Don't let him bully you out....please.
Have a nice day
Newtboy
EDIT: My mistake, it was Januari that had his video removed and votes transferred to yours...sorry.

@Trancecoach
interesting.
i admit my utter failure in expressing my position and decide to use someone i highly admire who could explain it better.

and in doing so i offend you?
and you respond by offending my sensibilities?

do you REALLY think i cannot think for myself?
are we in some epic battle where there is some abstract "winner"?
i thought i was talking to someone who i am quite fond of and who i also just happen to disagree with on this particular subject.

i want to understand why you choose your flavor of libertarianism.
which i dont because you never address the elephant in the room.it appears to me your style of libertarianism is circa 1790.
even blankfist agreed that corporate power and influence MUST be restructured and possibly returned to temporary partnerships,a privilege given by the people,to be dissolved when the project was concluded.
and blankfist is a die hard libertarian.

or is the corporate tyranny not as evident to you?
maybe reading too many heritage foundation essays?
have any of these articles outlined the flaws in capitalism?
like that the system will ultimately begin to cannibalize itself when growth becomes stagnant?
that unfettered capitalism will lay waste to everything..eventually and eventually everything will become a commodity.
to be sold and traded.

its not like it is a huge secret.
the problems with capitalism are well know and well understood,but i guess you are not one of those people.

and i am not one of those people who are good at conveying things such as these..never have been.
but i have always been respectful with you,even when i disagree.
and yet you assume my intentions.
take offense when i meant none and snipe at me from some imagined superior balcony.

i was never trying to say you were wrong.i just wanted to understand why you believe the things you believe.

and now as i am writing this i am being forced to question.
will he take this sentence wrong?
how will he perceive this word in that context?
and i have to admit..its kinda irritating.

but ya know what?
thats on me.
i made certain assumptions about you based an very little.
he likes floyd..check.
dropped some acid back in the day...check.
is educated and in the psychology field...check.

so every correspondence i have had with you is with that person in my minds eye.
i have written every word to you as if you were sitting right next to me.

i wrote about this before and you ridiculed me then.i should have gotten the message.
you are not the person i gave you credit for.
you are you.
and thats ok.

watch the video if you wish.its pretty informative.
or dont.
it doesnt matter.

i apologize for offending you.

I think some of you are missing the point. The ad lays no blame, it just states that mistakes are made and those mistakes can have consequences. The guy with the kid made the mistake of overestimating the time he had to pull out, or maybe made the mistake of proper attention on a road he likely is very, very familiar with. The other guy made the mistake of driving over the speed limit and not being fully aware of what someone else's mistake might be. We've all been both of those drivers at least once. The ad is a cautionary tale, not a "blame game" one.

Try putting an upside-down reg in your mouth underwater. If it's in your mouth when you go upside-down, that's no problem. He likely didn't purge it either. Sounds like his problem was escalating fast.

Oh, the technique worked perfectly. It removed money from the pockets of idiots, exactly as intended.

And sorry @Stormsinger, but I think there is no chance that this dude actually believes in what he is selling. Not only that, he likely has enough experience with running this or similar scams that he knows that being debunked and maybe going viral like this will probably be a net positive to his bottom line -- more people will show up to see for themselves than will be discouraged away. Hell, I bet a higher-than-average percentage of the people attending Day 1 (excluding the group that was there as skeptics from the outset) came back for Day 2 just to see how he would respond.

There's a sucker born every minute. Some people believe in Ouija boards, pyramid power, homeopathy, etc. And some people apparently believe in "EFO". However, I feel confident that the guys putting on the "seminar" and doing the "demonstrations" (I use those terms in the loosest way possible) AREN'T among the believers.

Being outside? Being athletic? As someone who's job involves being inside and sedentary, I can see the appeal of that.

Being athletic outside on a roadside breathing traffic fumes? Not so much.

But hey, if that's what he likes doing... good for him.

There used to be a magician at Knott's Berry Farm that demonstrated this trick pretty close to the audience and then explained that he had trained for years to create the pathway through his body for the sword to pass through.

The arm is particularly easy because of how the muscles are arranged around the bone. It passes right below the biceps. Not much going on in this particular, dare I say "easy" to pull off location of bloodless stabbiness.
I don't know if the Knott's magician is still there or not, but it was a "magic" show that explained the science behind older, more simplistic tricks like this.

Also included were lots of different types of electricity stunts (static electricity, powering light bulbs through people, etc.), which have fallen to the wayside with magicians because most people nowadays understand electricity and it's not as gut wrenching as this scar tissue build up dealio.

I upvoted for Ricky's reactions and David'd ridiculous goading, but the trick itself is le sigh.

The magician at Knott's had a fairly visible scar on both sides of his arm, as he likely performed the trick A LOT. Serious needle mark action. lol. Blaine probably rarely performs this trick and perhaps used other material, like make up, latex or some such material, glue, creams, etc.

By the way, this guy kinda looks like Edward Current, and he like the perfectly serious version of him.

but did he like it??

If you believe DNA was the result of intelligent design, then the creator did an absolute shit job of it: there's so many ways that things can and do go wrong at the genetic level -- cancer, birth defects, aging, death -- that you would have to conclude the creator has a special love for causing suffering based on his bad designs; the creator is a rampant sadist.

Your second question is silly: how would you know if you were living in a universe where bananas are grapes and grapes are monkeys? But I understand what you're trying to get at and the answer is that the universe I live in has no empirical evidence for a creator and a very workable theory for how life came about and evolved over time.

So here's a question for you: if there is a creator, why is he so incredibly bad at it (99.9% of all species that ever lived are now extinct) and why does he like beetles so much (there's a staggering number of beetle species)?

@Procrastinatron

You make your point beautifully

I didn't take his poem as being literal. I didn't assume he was actually talking about himself but making a point that you should treat every woman (person) with the respect they deserve and never assume in the first place that that gives you any hold over them. But it's perfectly possible I'm just being naive.

He should just resort to being ten again and go back to the playground tactic of pushing girls he likes over and calling them a poohead, just to be on the safe side
