Waste left behind by festival goers at Glastonbury Festival

Excess rubbish and abandoned tents are left behind as 135,000 revelers leave Glastonbury Festival. Hundreds of tents were abandoned despite the festival encouraging people to take their tents home with them.

After reading that, I'm gonna take a walk. Daaaaaamn.

P.S. listen to your body

Yeah, doc says I'd probably be able to eliminate a couple of pills and even ramp down on the Clonidine if I just decide to exercise and lose 20 pounds. 
But it's too damned hot outside, and I've exercised enough in life, goddammit.

Besides, I was at 127/72 this morning, so my pills are doing me just fine at the moment.  Somebody's gotta cover garbon's expense report.
They say that you should just lose weight and exercise, but it wasn't until I started really losing weight that my numbers started to peak.  Fuck diet and exercise (although I'm still doing it from force of habit), drugs are more reliable.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Jesus fucking Christ. What is wrong with all you people.
Bad genes, anger, fear and having too much time on my hands.

I'm going to avoid breeding so as to not pass the genes on.  Eugenics is the only way forward.

Stress, mostly.  You've obviously never supervised large numbers of stupid people, while reporting to even stupider people.  :P

Mom, I blame for the height and the eyesight.  Dad, I blame for this hereditary gig.  Then again, it was a package deal with the monster cock, so it's a push.

Really?  That's wierd.  For a few years, I was doing fine with just Verapamil and Lisonipril from when I was initially diagnosed,  but then around 2010ish it started to really go haywire with that still-unidentified adrenal disorder. 
Of course, sleep apnea didn't help.  In fact it makes it even worse, kept my body in such a state of stress, I think my adrenals got used to pumping out hormones in a constant stress state.   But the sleep apnea thing could definitely be mitigated by weight loss, and maybe even a tonsilectomy.

I don't like sparkling water. :(

It's not that hard a taste to acquire. What is it you like about soda? Is it a sugar addiction thing?

I drink Diet. As for what I like about it, it's hard to explain.

Where does the MAH STUFF meme come from?

Cal admitting bits of his gun fell off. So, we cool kids started teasing him with the typed southern accent.

MAH SIGHTS FELL OFF
MAH MAGAZINE
MAH SLIDE
MAH SAFETY

From there, it just sticks.

Is that from the gun thread? Good thing I asked, I'd never found otherwise.  :lol:

That thread is...creepy.

It's harmless, mostly just a bunch of 'murricans fellating their penis enhancements. :P
