So apparently chessboxing is a thing.

And it's pretty much what it says on the tin. Alternating rounds of chess and boxing, until someone wins either by checkmate or KO.


MZ....any good at chess?

Inscriptions?

Maybe I said it wrong, it's pretty late. I mean signing up for subjects, which happen at the end of every semester (things got delayed due to a four-month... strike? Can't think of a better word.

My mom's coworker's kid made a new facebook account. Added all of her friends except her mom. Some of her mom's friends were on that kid's friend list.

The kid is posting some pretty explicit shit. Normally I'd say that the bitch of a coworker deserves it for insulting/lying about everyone else's kids while flaunting her own as a literal angel, but that kid seriously needs to take that shit down before the cops come knocking on their door. Again.

We'd probably just call it enrollment.

Ah. I'm a bit unfamiliar with this system. Up until this semester, we didn't sign up for subjects. the subjects were signing up for us

A crappy eureka moment. Apparently, I must upgrade to Windows 7 or 8 to get proper drivers. A disc with Win7 costs yet another $100.


Alternatively, I could keep going with this crappy USB adapter(better yet, put the PCI wireless adapter in which I neglected to do because I thought I would have the ethernet jack to use)... which is currently downloading a Steam client update at around 20KB/s, as opposed to ~2MB/s.

Is this an XP computer or something?

what the hell is even going on here?

i hate it when people rant about their "first amendment rights". have any of them actually read the constitution? it literally just says:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

that has absolutely nothing to do with 99% of the times its invoked.

Vista. Fortunately, I can upgrade straight to 7 without nuking all my data.

Same with the Second Amendment. Goddamn, I wonder if people will ever flip out about supposed violations of the Third Amendment.

But that is country music. It's your view of country music that is cliched/wrong, not your mother. Little Big Town aren't really any different to the Dixie Chicks or other girl/country groups. Little Big Town are a Nashville band, signed to a country music label, and their music is pretty much straight country ballad / girl group stuff. Remember this is the music from your mother's generation, so you should sort of assume she has more knowledge about such things.

Quite. While a lot of people think that country music is either the "bro country" that is quite vocal right now, or the "A train ran over my dog, and momma wrecked my truck into my house" style that never really existed, country is among the most varied types of music that is currently popular.

On that subject, am I the only one that thinks the start of Girl Crush sounds very much like Zelda 3 music?


EDIT:
@Akura
There has been some, mostly used to attempt to get the Armed Forces (or at least the taxes used to pay for them) declared illegal.

what the hell is even going on here?

Not understanding the idea of a public space?
Framing things they don't like as harassment?
Wanting to control the entire conversation?
Blowing up at people who aren't even white and then claiming to be striking out against racism?

Sounds like typical SJW shit to me.
