I can't fucking stand fake ass Internet SWJs in their early 20's who probably don't volunteer any of their time at organizations or shelters or donate money to worthwhile charities, yet feel like they're entitled to tell people how to act and feel in the most annoying possible ways. I guess it's easier to pretend like you're making a difference simply by being an asshole to strangers on the Internet opposed to actually trying to help those you're relentlessly defending. Too bad you can't put that on a college application or resume, Kiddo.

I asked some guy the model of a technics TT he has for sale on craigslist, since the picture is too tiny to see. His response:
 
"ALL IT SAY IS Technics
78....33.1/3...."

Turnover - Peripheral Vision

Death Cab for Cutie. Without a doubt in my mind. I waited damn near 13 years to get a chance to see them, and I finally got to see them earlier this year. I bought tickets the second they went up and ended up a few rows back from the front. Just incredible. I really don't know how else to describe it. It may sound cliché, but I don't think I've ever connected with a band on such an emotional level the same way I have with Death Cab. Super grateful for that experience.

You can never have too many Golden Girls gifs.

I don't know why but I love this sentence.

Anyone else hear about what went down with Tom Alderson (Crosscheck, Drown), Ian Adams (Heavy Chains), Karebear (Suburban Scum?

I had a hard time reading through that. No one in the world deserves that. Absolutely fucking horrid. 
 
Heavy Chains is off the Life and Death tour and Suburban Scum is no longer playing the Back To School Jam, but that isn't enough. Tom deserves justice. Fuck both of those bands and fuck you if you continue to support them. Here's to hoping Tom makes a full and speedy recovery.

Horrible thing to happen to anyone.  I have friends who are friends with Tom, and have always heard nothing but good things about that guy.
 
I watched Suburban Scum from the back of the room at TIHC, and cringed hearing Karebear say shit like "punch someone in the face, I love that shit".  As if that type of attitude isn't bad enough, apparently he's the kinda guy who jumps someone half his size over "pit beef".  
 
I have a few SubScum records, and I'm selling them and donating the money to Tom.  Anyone else who wants to donate can do so here:

Depends on what you mean by 'limited', but yes. 
Further Out and Jar are definitely happening.

Bump I sold citizen to a cool guy. A cool guy. Don't you wanna be cool? Buy a few records!

This just getting bumped up reminded me of seeing them at Bottom of the Hill.  I left early.  They sounded like crap (which is rare because BOTH usually has great sound), and it's been a long time since I've seen a band be so disrespectful to a venue and its rules/policies.  It was embarrassing, for them.  I felt like I was at a high-school punk rock show, except it was a bunch of middle-aged adults revealing in their edginess.  Rant over, hopefully they aren't being douches anymore.  Was going to give them a second chance at Sasquatch, but they bailed on that show.

I don't think it's been mentioned in this thread yet, but This Will Destroy You's Live in Reykjavik record is incredible.
 
Seeing them this Friday for the first time, and I could not be any more excited.

They did have to drop off quite a few shows earlier this year due to medical issues.

Nicky probably said a few swears and some kids probably got bent out of shape over it. 
 
They were awesome when I saw them last year.

I second this. Would love to hear the venue rules and policies they broke that was embarrassing for them. Enlighten us, dad.

im drunk and reading things.

Just got a two calls about two job interviews next week for positions that pay almost double what I'm making now! So stoked. So stoked that I accidentally posted this in the man advice thread at first.
I always thought parking garage collapses were an irrational fear of mine too. Parking in the Mall of America parking ramps scares the crap out of me, especially when it's really windy out.

I am fucking speechless right now.
Last night, I lost my wallet in a mall parking lot. My girlfriend and I only went to one store for maybe twenty minutes, tops. When we got back to my car, I realized my wallet was gone. I've never lost my wallet before, but of course the one time I do lose it, I have my fucking social security card in it (I needed it to fill out some paperwork for a new job the other day, and I stupidly forgot to take it out right away).
Anyways, I start to freak out. If it was just my credit card/debit card, it wouldn't have been that big of a deal. Cancel the cards and whatnot, people lose those all the time, whatever. I started thinking what would happen if it got into the wrong hands, and your social security number is obviously a pretty big deal, so needless to say I was freaking out. I must have retraced my steps through the parking lot and the store we went to at least 10 times. I cancelled my cards, but I was freaked out that my social security card was floating around somewhere out there. I was so mad at myself. Left my information with the store and mall security, but things were looking bleak. after maybe a half hour of looking, I had to give up and head home. I was so devastated/pissed/worried.
Fast forward to this morning. I wake up thinking how shitty it's going to be to get all this shit back that I lost. Of course the credit bureaus that you report this kind of stuff to are only open Monday-Friday, so I was not too happy this morning.
I decide to watch some Netflix to get my mind off things, when all of a sudden I hear my doorbell ring. I flew out of bed and saw some random guy standing at my front door. I answered and the guy goes, "You must be Justin, I found your wallet last night." and he takes my fucking wallet out of his back pocket. My heart and jaw dropped. I was speechless. All I could do was pull the cash out of my wallet and hand it to him, I somehow muttered, "Here dude, you gotta take this, thank you so fucking much." He politely declined. This dude drove nearly 40 minutes to my house, I was astonished. I shook his hand and gave him a hug, tried offering him some more money for the insanely good deed he just did. He declined again, saying it was all good, and he was on his way. I nearly started crying out of disbelief and happiness. I never expected something like that to happen to me.
Sorry if this got too long, but I am blown away right now. This random dude did the most selfless thing for a complete stranger, and I am so happy. He showed me that there really are great people out there who do great things and don't expect a single thing in return.
The biggest shout out to Steve. What a fucking guy.
Now I have some serious karma to repay. Oh, and I took my dumbass social security card out of my wallet. I sure as shit learned my lesson.
