  1. i'm crying. (also really grateful i never posted my fucking picture here.)
  2. YOU'RE an actual girl. (i wish.) i think you just out-Auptyk'd me. oh wait, you used a smiley. immediate disqualification. "Yup, bottom line blah blah blah . . ." the shoe. it fits.
  3. mmm. yeah. just feels right, you know? don't push it old man, i'll fight you. (sorry that was the Auptyk in me.)
  4. those threads are where i first learned how dudes act when they think they're talking to a girl online. fascinating. we should have Auptyk Day. like a day where everyone condescends to each other about everything. could be fun?
  5. pretty stoked. Jack Johnson's my island homeboy. (this is a music festival held at Government Center in Boston.)
  6. sup Glen. (or Sean?) you and the missus are quite cute with your euphemisms.
  7. enough time has passed now where i feel like i can say, "i really don't like that MKUL7RA fellow." yeah. i said it. screw that guy.
  8. well there goes the rest of my afternoon. in a good way.
  9. very slick-looking -- big fan of Layer Cake, i'll definitely be giving this a go when it's out.
  10. i changed my facebook cover photo to this for the week! (. . . he said like a douche-y millenial.) Magic Mike 2: Bayou Nights. fingers crossed for Jonah Hill as Rogue.
  11. just give him all the Emmys already. last night's scene where Oberyn is recalling how they first met was also incredible to watch. only if you want your heart stomped on (by really strong writing and acting. the sets are crazy too.)
  12. . . . yeah hard to argue with that.
  13. DKReturns is my all-time favorite Batman story. this first image completely changed my perspective on this movie.
  14. http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/05/07/michael-jordan-i-considered-myself-a-racist/?ocid=Yahoo&partner=ya5nbcs His Airness himself, Michael Jordan, with a timely quote that shows you don't fight racism with more racism: "The education came from my parents,” Jordan recalled. “You have to be able to say, OK, that happened back then. Now let’s take it from here and see what happens. It would be very easy to hate people for the rest of your life, and some people have done that. You’ve got to deal with what’s happening now and try to make things better.”
  15. oh yeah, no, totally wasn't defending Snoop Dogg. nobody needed to hear that -- really unproductive. and it's not like this was news, Sterling's discrimination was well-documented as far back as 2006, so it was that much more unnecessary to fuel the fire. it's funny though . . . i was thinking last night about how i agree that slurs should stop being used either way, but how do you approach that problem when the slurs have been adopted by their targets in an effort to own their power? (rap and the "n-word," country music and "redneck"). how do you ask these groups to surrender the words? i don't think a ban like James suggested would work in this country, but i don't know what the alternative would be either.
  16. just want to acknowledge the fact that this is a place where i can open a race thread and reasonably expect that no one will be acting absurdly ignorant or immature. and then have that expectation totally rewarded. seriously, this place is so weird. the media plays to racism against minorities, and Sterling currently owns a professional basketball team while Snoop Dogg is currently irrelevant. i think that's really the simplest explanation for the disparity in coverage on equally stupid comments from two different people. sure. there are some implications here that might be worth exploring, though. (slow workday, forgive the incoming wall of text.)
  17. you should host weddings in your garden as a side business. gorgeous, man.
  18. well Baelish is my favorite again. also a nice episode for Hodor.
  19. saw an article this morning, sounds like a pretty cool project so i thought i'd share: http://www.boston.com/business/innovation/2014/04/29/each-mit-undergraduate-get-bitcoin-part-student-project/rGL9oZb3vacEG6hcb9bcLJ/story.html frankly if you have an entire class at MIT actively working on ways to assign value to bitcoin, it could result in some interesting applications in the future.
  20. yeah i was just joshin' -- the way i read it at first made for a funny image in my head, lol. like, Doc kinda reluctantly instructing another officer to pop a cap in the knee of an apprehended carjacker. #streetjustice
  21. . . . so you're familiar with Hodor, then.
  22. i liked it a lot more when it was a Marvin Gaye song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRcVQDELAd4
  23. i know absolutely nothing about DayZ, and i don't want to derail, but i recently saw this and could not stop laughing.
  24. boom, crystal kingslayer theory (spoilers duh): http://www.buzzfeed.com/ryanhatesthis/heres-exactly-how-the-biggest-jerk-in-all-of-game-of-thrones (seems to explain the conspicuous blueish-purple color he turned before croaking . . .)
