hints

so the deal went through, PokerStars has purchased Full Tilt Poker and will open the site back up for countries outside the US. and yea, looks like all US-players will get their money back. (LOL i'm pretty sure that no one cares, but i don't care that no one cares) the only bad part about all this, it looks like if you want to get your money back, you have to apply to the Department of Justice. Ugh, sounds like it's going to be complicated. link: http://www.pokernews.com/news/2012/07/pokerstars-acquires-full-tilt-poker-assets-players-refunded-13146.htm

just read this: As part of the settlement, PokerStars will be fronting the money to pay back U.S. players with balances stuck on Tilt. However, those players will have to file a “remittance form” with the DoJ to receive those forms. The big question: is it worth opening yourself up to a potential audit to receive your money?

=============
I like when people drop hints and i actually pick them up. I always act like i somehow didn't get the hint and ask dumb questions. it's hard to explain. but this makes me wonder, how many times have there been when someone tried to drop a hint, and i legitimately didn't pick up on it. it's times like this when i wish i can watch replays of my life.

completely hypothetical situation, but i think it would be funny (to watch a replay) if i was on a date (unrealistic i know) and it's cold outside. and the date says "it's soooo cold outside, wish i brought my jacket" and i just say "yea, fuckkk, it's freezing out here!" while i zip up my jacket.

i can wait

 whenever i hear someone say "i can't wait", i always want to ask a follow up question just to see how muchhhhh they can't wait for something.  i need to put it in perspective. you say you can't wait for October because you're going to a concert? well first, yes, you literally can wait.  but seriously, how much can you not wait?

what would you give up. ok, you can't wait for the concert, would you give up youtube for 3 weeks in order for the concert to happen tomorrow? no, well then, you can wait.

you can't wait?!? ok, would you give up 10% of your net worth for the concert to happen tomorrow? no? well then

ok, i'm done

my stupid blood alcohol breathalyzer test was a big fat waste of money. i used it for the first time over the weekend, and my first 3 blows, registered 3 consecutive 0.19. now, i highly doubt that was accurate because i didn't drink that much. so yeah, um that wasn't that much fun.

but then i thought, breathalyzers NEED to be conservative. NEEEED. let's say your BAC is 0.08.
it is better for your breathalyzer to register a .12 rather than a 0.07. it's imperative that your breathalyzer overestimates your drunkyness (i'm sure there's a better way to word that). what i'm trying to say, which is pretty obvious i guess, if you are slightly buzzed, its better for your breathalyzer to say you're fucking drunk, rather than to say you're slightly buzzed. SAFETY. jill is thinking "obviously grant, obviously"

QUARTER LIFE CRISIS!

I feel like everyone thinks they are an above average tetris player. like, if you ask 1000 people if they think they are an above average tetris player, i feel like 90% will say yes. i was going to challenge someone at tetris. (but unfortunately there's no free tetris download on the iphone) i'm convinced that everyone is relatively equal in skill. everyone makes it to level 10 or whatever, everyone thinks they are legit because they wait for the long straight shape and get the 5-row thing. but everyone loses in level 13or whatever. everyone is average

it's interesting how instagram is the new baby photo album. almost everyone is on instagram, and almost everyone loves instagram. when people start to have kids. bang bang bang. you're going to see kids grow up on instagram. the 2012 photo album. kids will grow up and eventually look at their parents' instagram to see baby pictures. kids will look at their friends' parents' instagrams to see baby pictures of their friends. life is crazy. it's 2012

thinking about a lot lately and noticed that i have lots of little brother characteristics.
yep, even with people who are my age, i act like a little brother. lol not



am i crazy or is this hilarious? this is hilarious. i probably find this to be toooo funny if that makes sense. i mean, this is hilarious.

oh btw, i've noticed that you can say "i mean" before anything. instead of saying "um" when trying to think of something to say, you can replace that with "i mean"

example. if someone asks what you if the Warriors are going to make the playoffs. you can say "i mean, if the teams stays healthy and bogut plays like a beast..."

if jill asks why do you still watch youtube vids of box breaks, i can say "i mean, a hobby is a hobby, leave me alone"

why haven't i wrote anything in a while? i mean, it doesn't help that i have a hater that left 2 hater comments. lol nah jay kay, it's actually pretty funny. serious, go check

nbd

 it killlllls me when I can't understand my waiter. either because he  doesn't speak up, or has a very heavy accent. not only is it frustrating, but it makes zero sense. if you own a restaurant, what are you thinking when you hire a person without a clear speaking voice? doesn't make business sense. like, isn't that a red flag? yes. and also, let's say you don't have a clear speaking voice, why would you want to be a waiter? that isn't fun. that sounds like torture.

-jonnyC asks "have you been watching youtube lately?"
lol umm, yes. 


-i feel like instagram should have the option to turn off the double-tap/LIKE option. it's just too dangerous.  i'm honestly a little scared of this feature. i can't afford to "like" certain photos on accident. i'm kidding. no i'm not. JUST GIVE ME THE OPTION

-so i bought a personal alcohol breathalyzer test on groupon for $24. i'm pretty damn excited for this. not only is it priceless, but the betting opportunities oh my. ok first, why aren't these things given away for free ninety nine? i mean, they are priceless. saves 1 life = priceless. i mean, that just makes sense. shouldn't breathalyzers be in every car by now? it's 2012. don't quite understand. ok, but the betting opportunities? oh my,

bet 1) you and your opponent. you have 3 hours to drink whatever you want. and in exactly 3 hours, whoever is closest to a .12 BAC, wins the bet. for every .01 you are under, you must take 2 shots, for every .01 you are over, you must take 1 shot. OR, maybe price is right style? or, if you nail .12 exactly, and your opponent is off by .03 or more, you get to shave their head? FUN

bet 2) whoever blows the highest BAC, wins? boring.

oh my god, i can't wait til it comes in. this isn't weird, is it? no it's not. wait, is it? no, it's not. NOPE
