What's Good?

[Ex-User (5841)]

I just found $30 in a sock and a tin of sardines in hot sauce under the seat of my truck. That's what's good.

I just rolled a joint and am about to play-test an extensive Warcraft 2 scenario with multiple AI opponents that I've spent all day editing and tweaking. That's what's good.

I recently found a photo collection of my late dog I thought I'd lost forever.

What's good?

I don't have money hence I am free from the shackles of consumerism, no longer subject to base material desires except for the ones my parents help me satiate. That's what's good.

Did it help explain why he was late and/or lost??

On Wednesday, my dealer gave me a hit of some butane hash oil. One hit had me stoned for 13 hours. I learned to control my chi better.

Thats what's good

A taxi and a motorbike collided just a few meters from where I was walking. Had I've been a few seconds earlier then I'm probably typing at a hospital right now.

The taxi just had one of its hubcaps wrenched off. The bike's owner stood up and was spoiling for a fight when I walked away so I guess he wasn't that hurt. Not sure about his bike though.

 

[Hawkeye]

Well, he had Mitral Valve Disease and died of heart failure. He was 10 years old and until 4 months ago, lived a healthy, care-free life. His decline in health happened in a short space of time. He had developed a cough and began getting short of breath.

On Monday morning I arrived home to no welcome. My dog was nearly always waiting for me at the top of the stairs. Sometimes though, he used to get stuck in my room because he'd nudge the door and end up shutting it from the inside; however, when I went upstairs to assist his escape, I found him lying peacefully in a forever-sleep.

I knew his time was coming, but his illness did not appear to be that bad. Sure, he got short of breath easily, but he was quite spritely when I left for work that day. Due to this, I suspect that he wasn't expecting it that day either.

To tie this back to the topic: As devastating as it is, I think it's good that my dog passed away peacefully at home in his sleep, rather than having to be put down at the vets (he did not like that place one bit). In fact, it appears that pets dying in their sleep is a rare "blessing".

having and using time is good, as opposed to needing it

Finally getting back my income tax money for 2013 from Pennsylvania, since I don't live or work in the state and they shouldn't have taken any of it anyway.

Also... warmer weather.

Sucks bro, good that you're seeing it in a positive light, but I know that feeling, sucks.

What's good? I just paid $300 for a job where I will start earning $50k annually just as soon as I finish this 6 week training program and become a manager and start hiring more salespeople to pipeline their $$ into my accounts dammmn I'm gonna be rich. I'll be retiring in three years with full pension and benefits as well as a classy life insurance policy and a neat briefcase and suit.

That's what's good

Will you be nice towards your employees or a severe taskmaster, driving them into an early grave?

Taskmaster of course as I now need them to sustain my income as well as their own while I spend all day on the phone recruiting new agents. I should make sure to adjust my daytime minutes plan however because otherwise I might have a $500 phone bill to pay out of pocket, but, hey, cost of doing business right??

I will of course have an office space which I am required to pay for out of pocket as I am technically "self-employed". It's a nice tax write off though so as long as I sell three policies a week it should be good to go.

I think you should have a pyramid scheme which those older workers whose bodies are too worn down for construction work can join instead, that way you can squeeze some more money out of them before they die.

You can use dying bodies as mortar and bricks to build bigger pyramids -- talk about a squeeze play. Humans might be our greatest physical resource. And just think, every time you drive by that particular building, you can say, "Grandpa put a lot of himself into that project."

Crushed a job interview this morning, have another one scheduled in the late afternoon, and just got an invite back for a second round interview with another company. That's what's good.

Screw that come work for my insurance agency all you have to do is recruit 3 other people and each of them has to recruit 3 people and somewhere along the line somebody has to sell that life insurance. Forget that ... we're like , gonna be at the top of this pyramid man. $$

Will you take regular company vacations to Bahamas and Hawaii?

Will you take regular company vacations to Bahamas and Hawaii?

They're not vacations they're conferences. Last year was actually in Memphis.

Every week we have videos of all the successful agents and managers from around the country who are stuffing their pockets with $3000-$4000 a week. Look at the nice suits they're wearing.

ok i'm done

 

[Absurdity]

Almost as bad as Detroit or Mogadishu.

<-Just got paid $200 to have his blood drawn, $50/mL. That's what's good.

 

[Pizzabeak]

Was it cash or do you have to wait 3 weeks for the check to arrive in the mail?

 

[Ex-User (5841)]

Same day check.

 

[Base groove]

OK you did not get 4mL of blood drawn. 1mL = 1 cc.

I realize you guys are just getting into the metric system but ... it's really simple.

 

[Pizzabeak]

What is that amount in kilograms? In pounds?

 

[Lot]

These brownies after a couple hits. God, I might end up eating all them tonight. I'm gonna get fat

Maybe he meant 4mL lifeblood, in other words semen.

Using life blood in this context has completely distorted my view of how 2112 ends.

My spirits are low in the depths of despair.
My life blood spills over...

 

[Base groove]

What's good??

I lost almost two thousand dollars worth of blood today and I'll be spilling another $500 worth of lifeblood before the day is through.

That's what's good.

are you in camarilla?

No I do manly things that are really dangerous.

And lifeblood is actually semen if you've been following the thread....

 

[Ex-User (9086)]

No I haven't followed the thread, but in asian cultures semen and blood are conceptually connected, so I can imagine this tangent.

Semen collection/donation is really dangerous? Interesting, you probably live a fun life.

edit: semen gambling? wow

Two of these bad boys. It wasn't plasma donation, it was P/K testing & serum testing. Human lab rat ftw.

Though lifeblood would make a good day as well.

What's good today? I finished 1/3 of my garden. This week's batch of green onions & radishes, lettuce, carrots, beets, peas, kale, and collards are in. And 25 snares are made for whatever critters think they're going to chow down on my crops. I actually did physical work!

What's good?

I got to spend the entire day alone in my head. Tomorrow I'm doing a nice little 8 mile hike up a mountain. I should get some nice pictures out of it.

That's pretty good.

Going to see Goth-Trad and Commodo tonight.

Being so late to the party, it's been really cool getting to hear dubstep tracks on real sound systems and seeing my favorite artists in person.

Limited out on trout this morning.

(My state also lifted the regulations on the number of hooks allowed per fishing line and increased the number of lines per person from 2 to 3. Oh hell yeah!)

Surprisingly I haven't had a misanthropic thought in over 3 days.

Being able to feel some sense of motivation again and actually being able to do simple things. Which coincides with the ability to feel good about it.

Seeing new things I never saw before.

Found a dead 10 point* today that a poacher screwed up on and shot in the leg. Putting up with the smell of the rotting corpse while cutting off its head was totally worth it.

I downloaded some software for WinXP that will clear all Windows History at the click of a button ... been doing what I can to avoid the behemoth hard disk corrupter that is "AVG PC tune up"...

...annnnd it cleared all of my bookmarks, preferences, search engines, and add-ons in Firefox.

oh wait, that sucks. I have lost all my half-finished reading material including Salmoneus' thread on mind-control and the link to making semen-piss pheromones (and my links to pages which consist of manual registry tweaks, another effort to avoid AVG)
