Audioblysk Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Got a 22.5% raise at a business dinner, plus a 10% bonus. Also, finalized my investment to become a 3.33% owner in the company with its expansion on the way this coming spring. Not much of an owner but we should be seeing at least 25% expansion on a business that already makes $500k a year in profit. My math tells me that I am about to start making first world money.

Time to waste taxpayer's money! Congrats dude. Sounds like you've earned it. I found an unusual strand of hair protruding from my right eyebrow a little while ago. I thought it might've been some stray hair until I started pulling on it. It was just an unusually long eyebrow hair. Anyway, I managed to pluck that fucker and dispose of it.

Zephyr_Nova Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 My metal screams are getting disturbingly good. Excellent. By the way, I downloaded AMV - I Hope You Have... album earlier this year, and it's top notch. Is there more on the way? Downloading Twenty-Eight now, which I somehow missed before. Guys, modey makes good metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys, modey makes good metal. oh thanks! That 'album' was a whole lot of fun to make, so I'll probably do another one pretty soon. My new band should also be recording some stuff soon, but we're more industrial/synthy/serious than the AMV stuff, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest disparaissant Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 i've been too busy writing papers to get around to studying for an exam this morning. i took a cursory glance at the study guide, and googled the one term i had no familiarity with whatsoever. took about 15 seconds. sat down in class, opened the exam. five and a half minutes later, i finished it. got a 93.33% i am pretty goddamn pleased with myself right now, thank you very much.

Guest disparaissant Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 haha it was only half of the exam. the first half was an 8 page take home essay. i have no idea how i did on that. probably not too well, considering i checked out of this class like 2 months ago. the half that i finished in 5.5 minutes was multiple choice and all the answers were ludicrously obvious. one of them was along the lines of: Which of these is NOT a nontraditional family? a single mother raising two children two women raising a child together a mother, a father, and their adopted child a mother, a father, and their biological children herp derp.

chenGOD Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 lol was this anthro 101 or something? I remember questions like that on one of my anth 100 midterms. Fun class though. And speaking of anthropology my university has achieved somewhat of a first world success by hiring Wade Davis. I might be able to audit one of his classes. That would be fun as hell.

Guest disparaissant Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 nah it was a 100 level history class called "a history of family and sex roles in the past" i took it because i needed one more sub-300 level history class, and it was also cross listed with women's studies and lgbt studies. so it was a triple whammy. it was, however, incredibly boring, and the professor was literally the worst public speaker i have ever had the displeasure of being forced to listen to for 100 minutes a week. and the discussion section was utterly useless, despite the best efforts of the TA.
