READY

when i try and text 'nba" with my iphone, it always auto-corrects to MBA. why would i everrrr text anyone regarding MBAs? does MBA really get texted more frequently than NBA?? no way

girls just don't understand. gift cards are a wayyy better gift than flowers. flowers die eventually. gift cards never expire. what am i missing here? i can hear my mom saying "grant, stop being so fucking cheap all the time." but i'm not being cheap, i'd rather buy a $100 gift card as a gift than $30 flowers that will die in a week. WHAT AM I MISSING HERE?

about 2 months ago, it finally happened. i have officially moved past the whole daily deal/groupon phase of my life. i hate them, i don't go crazy with them anymore. the unfortunate thing is, i have a shit-ton of them still. and they are all set to expire around January-March of 2012. it's going to be a stressful couple months. i refuse to let them expire worthless. if i have to go to Globe (a sit-down restaurant) by myself on March 18th (day before expiration) and order $50 worth of take-out, then that's exactly what I am going to do. bastards

Ant farm- day 1

Say hello to my little friends. Bought a groupon for a local bookstore, they had a toy section, saw the ant farm, always wanted one, bang.


dig bitch, dig.

Jeremy Lin to the Knicks

Jeremy Lin headed to the Knicks. This is my dream, Jeremy in an interview saying something like "it feels good to be headed to the Knicks, man, it's like a dream come true. I ain't got time for that small market bull shit in the bay area. It's time for Jeremy Lin to prove himself on a big stage and get that ring he deserves. The warriors have a 0% chance of winning a championship in the next 3 years. Why would I waste my time? Nah, fuck that bull shit. I felt disrespected by the warriors, never again. Jeremy Lin ain't got time for that bull shit.". Then the reporter says "well Jeremy, we look forward to seeing you play in the Knicks uniform in Madison square garden" Then Jeremy looks into the camera and says "CAN'T WAIT" and walks off.

Please! Jeremy! One time

youu sneaky mom



just saw this, thought it was pretty funny. i cannot wait to do this to my kids one day. cannnnnot wait. what a good idea. i might just hit my kid all at once. once he turns 5, get a camera ready, the day after halloween, and tell him "son, come over here, we need to talk. so last night, i ate all of your halloween candy, all of it. you have no candy left. it gets worse, Santa Claus is not real. no sarcasm. there is no such thing as santa claus, it's all bull shit. 100% bull shit. therefore you are not getting any christmas gifts this year. none. oh, and the easter bunny and the tooth fairy are also fake".

too much maybe. but this idea is genius, its perfect. i can see myself playing a lot of jokes on my kids. it's going to be funny when my kid first says "dad, i never know when you're joking." because i honestly hear that once a week. what an ice breaker though! when these kids in this youtube vid are in high school and college and the teacher asks for each student to share one thing unique about themselves. these bastards can say "something unique about me? hmmmmmm. well, i was one of the kids in the Jimmy Kimmel halloween youtube video that currently has 82 million views, nbd though." lucky bastards

a no win-situation

one of the most important part of a good bet is the sweat. the andris biedrins 8x10 bet with scottmizuno.com had no sweat at all. i started a 10-day auction, and with 8 days left, someone bid already! in my head, i thought we'd at least have a sweat. you know, 6 hours left in the ebay auction with no bids yet. i would then use my Scottmizuno tweet to try and get a last minute bid.
but no. nothing. a no win situation basically. i won the bet, so scott will never see his biedrins auto ever again. i spent 20 minutes listing that damn thing on ebay. thennn, once i receive my paypal payment of $0.99 minus paypal and ebay fees!!!!, i have to figure out how to ship that damn thing, i have to go to the post office and probably pay like $4 to ship since i offered free shipping. waste of time and money. fuck

interesting tid-bit. i noticed that wardamneaglenate (dumbass who bid with 8 days left in the auction) bid twice! LOL. that means he bid the minimum, 99cents, then later (1 day and 7 hours to be exact) thought "oh shit, what if someone outbids me on that sick autographed 8x10 of andris biedrins. i better increase my bid to prevent those damn last second snipers" he bid twice!!! he is scared of being outbid???? hmm, this could get interesting. i may ask someone to bid on this auction to drive up the price.

less than 2 days left. check it out

eBay

I didn't forget.

from June::

"most interesting bet ever? possibly. ok, i was in davis celebrating scottmizuno.com's graduation. if you don't know, scott is a big sports guy, and a big autograph guy. he has autos from all of the biggest athletes. i was looking through his 16x20s, sooo sick. we had a few beers, then i look thru his old 8x10s. and i found this andris biedrins auto's 8x10. i don't really remember the details, but i think it went something like this. i jokingly asked how much it would sell for. scott said it wouldn't sell for a dollar. i then asked if i can have it because i thought it was funny. he said sure. then, i think i asked, would it sell for a $1 on ebay? scott said no. NOW, the most interesting bet (maybe) was booked. the terms: I am going to list this sick biedrins auto on ebay, 10 day auction, starting at $0.99 with free shipping. I get to add my own description. No friends or relatives of mine can buy it. During the listing, Scott has to tweet about the biedrins listing. I get to decide when scott tweets about it. I'm 90% sure the bet was for $10. If there is 1 bid, i win. No bids, scott wins. $1 and free shipping!!!?? there has to be a biedrins fan out there somewhere."

summer league



scott showed me this video on friday. this was the summer of 2010, john wall's rookie year. it's kyle getting wall's auto, i got it previously. but this time, we asked for a picture, he said "nah no pictures" i know it looks like i said something like "oh, no problem John, have a great day" But i actually said "fine, punkass bitch"
