my fucking god im bored. i anticipated hours of mindless olympics footage before crashing around 7am but, of course, canada managed to fuck that up as well and rain everything out.
I.e. everyone knows what's on the line. Pure, utter noose is on the line. But it's a bit like nicotine. I don't [personally] imbibe illicit substances [myself] but I still smoke a pack or two a day. Graphic imagery and all.
I think it's a statement of my personal character and courage. It takes a Real Man to look Death straight in the eyes and suck back with a grin.
I'll likely feel differently when they operating on my left lung.
As those stoners stupid enough to rock stoner decals and shirts might feel differently when a cop extracts a Moran Penalty of 500 baht for being stupid enough to wear a Pot Leaf shirt when one is a stoner.
But until then, they [and I] are 'courageous'. Although I would argue I have slightly better fucking taste.
imo cigs are the lowest of the low, next to sniffing glue. All the addiction, never the pleasure. At least from the observations I see of smokers.
i want to drug treatment when i was like 18 or something and one of the fundamental survival skills they taught was "sit back, relax, and smoke a camel".
i no longer smoke cigs but by god i remember some very hard times that become a lot less hard after smoking a cig for 5 minutes while getting my perspective together.
what are the observations you see of gluesniffers?
glue sniffers have a vacant look in their eye.. not quite there.. animal like instincts.. they speak with a snarl, if they think you have money or are in their space.. but not really like an animal, more like a stoner who has lost all manner of logic circuity.. a fresh zombie of sorts.. they don't need much money to subsist, so they're not real dangerous.. but then that bottle of maddog might just mean a lot to them..
actually these are paint sniffers, never been around glue sniffers.
I like to make strong statements about cigarettes, because I see people who seem to get little enjoyment out of them, yet are compulsively driven to smoke. Alcohol, weed, present neither of these issues. I agree a nice cig drag can be sweet, but I absolutely despise teh taste and the 2nd hand smoke too. So I guess Im lucky that way, I can't even enjoy 1 cig very much.
I got my first suit back. And let me be the first to say; I need to either lose a substantial amount of weight (bv) or I need to find a much, much better tailor (even more obv).
The slacks are fine, which in itself deserves a measure of praise, but the jacket... I feel like I am basically going up against the house style, which means that the lapels stay the same size regardless of the size of the midriff, which on me is a substantial amount of fabric. The result is that their relative size draws attention to my gut/chest instead of 'taming' it by drawing attention away from it.
Perhaps its just me.
Also its white (as requested) but is a bit translucent.. I dont know, Im going to take some pics now, if I find one that doesnt beg to be captioned for a failpic, Ill consider strongly posting it.
I could just be being hugely negative due to a headache and such but end game is my expectations were not really met, and I have 3 more coming in this cut. Sigh.
My hope at this point is that they are suitable for a job interview if nothing else. On the 10th I will be heading to Narin, which is generally considered the top-top of South East Asian tailors, and getting two more suits there. Hopefully that will yield 2 pieces that actually live up to promise. If it doesnt, well, its back to plan A; lose a shit-ton of weight and try again next year.
