    Why can't car makers make a comfortable seat anymore. And what the hell is with the headrests. They push your head forward and give you a stiff neck.

      Re: The random thought thread

      So, on my mind, and related to different cultures and the games played in dating:


      1) What is with this "hard to get" lark. It's risky business if you really are interested in the other person.

      2) "I am not ready to be exclusive". Doesn't that just mean, I am not really interested in a romantic relationship with you, but you may due my biding until someone better comes along?

      Personally, I don't think it is right to be seeing more than person at at time - at least once things get..ahem...physical. Am I old fashioned? Blue-eyed? Idealistic?


      I am not an angry young man, I am 38, and have a few longish relationships behind me (longest was 6 years and include a house).

      I'm just an honest man, and would describe my way of communicating as "face value", since I don't like to play games and hide my intentions or feelings.

          At first I read that as "the longest was 6 years and included a horse." O.o
          Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
          O.o

              Damn right, it's the best, not to mention the incredible skill it takes to do it.
              I know I should be ashamed of myself. Strangely though, I am not.

                  1. Get fewer haircuts. That way there will be enough time to get all the hair washed out before your collar gets filled up again.
                  2. Tell your barber! The barber will then be more careful about letting the clippings collect in the collar. Or will spitefully see to it that there are more clippings in the collar. In the second instance get a new barber.

                    I used to get pissed having to shell out cash to someone to cut my hair, and I was never really satisfied with the outcome, or maybe just didn't feel I got my money's worth. Buy a clipper and a razor and add the melon to the shaving routine. Hell of a lot cooler, no need for shampoo or conditioner, no one can tell how grey or thinning you are, and not a chance for head lice or dandruff. Watch out for the strong sunlight though, sunburn on the pate is a bitch.

                    Now my random thought: Listening to the Grateful Dead in a room full of Blacklight Posters. Ahh, memories...

                      Has anyone wondered? Ok they put in elevators in buildings to make them handicapped accessible. They say in event of fire or emergency take the stairs. How do the handicapped people get out, if they can't take the elevator? I guess they're screwed. :x

                            I had a three hundred mile day recently, and I noticed there sure are a lot of Buicks out on the road around here.
