go PhillyB! rown

kb sure looks like a tub of lard out there, hopefully he won't eat foucault

nipple pants is a genius

i did a double-take when i saw this. if somebody photoshopped a picture of me into that i don't think i'd be able to tell the difference

nah i can resize the image itself, but linking to it inexplicably blows it up… no biggie. thanks tho

how the fug do i resize that fuging image? i'm linking to a much smaller one but it blew the fug up and i can't figure out how to change it to save my goddamn life

i took this picture in panama a year and a half ago and forgot i loved it

wtf

sorry yes it's real

awesome! start a thread at that point and i'll brain dump into it. i've never been to europe and i've always wanted to go to scotland, so i intend to do a lot of trekking in the kilgorns, and it'll be an opportunity to take some time to finish up that goddamn book, finally, and plus i'm probably meeting a buddy in germany afterwards and backpacking germany/austria for a week or two, and i've always wanted to go there as well. i will slake my thirst for adventure this december when i wander the far-flung islands of the indonesian archipelago, tracing 19th-century british naturalist alfred russel wallace's footsteps in my own quest to the mysterious aru islands, in search of feathers from the legendary bird of paradise

lucky bastard, one of my biggest regrets is never studying abroad. it'll provide a cascade of experiences you won't get just backpacking and slumming it with the masses. where in aus are you gonna be? that'll play a pretty big part. ALL of southeast asia is a must-see. assuming you'll do mainland SEA (indonesia and parts of malaysia are pretty far-flung) you can very easily hit thailand, burma, laos, cambodia, and vietnam if you've got the time. expenses are minimal. i won't suck up a pictures thread with travel advice, but when the times comes, start a thread in the lounge and i'll be happy to dump ideas into it. oh yeah and if you have ideas on how to travel and find a legit job that lets you travel TELL ME IMMEDIATELY. lol edit: for the past couple years my strategy has been to save up extra cash (you could work an extra day a week, or sock away 10 bucks a week, or something) so that when it comes time to travel i pretty much have my airfare covered. i bartend (a lot) and i save my change and the odd one-dollar-bills that i can't change out for higher denominations, and don't consider them income. i paid for roundtrip tickets to peru in 2011, ecuador in 2012, peru again in 2013 and one to uruguay, and if all goes well i'll have a "free" ride to england this summer, possibly indonesia in december if i have a good fall season at work. and on that note, try traveling over the summer when you're on break (though it'll generally be more expensive unless you fly to the southern hemisphere where it's winter) and in december (where it's generally the cheapest time to fly, and you'll be out of school.)

nice. did you make it out to atitlan or antigua?

very cool. where were you guys exactly?

they're kind of goofy

she and her husband are ok, two dogs died in the smoke i can't even imagine. fug

fug this weather in the ass. it shut down power on my sister's home, she switched to a woodburning stove, which somehow caught the living room on fire and burnt the whole fuging thing to the ground this morning. fug this weather, fug it hard

wtf they killed kate mara??!?!?!?!?!
