  1. Didn't Jon Lovitz slam his head on the bar for making a crack about killing Phil Hartman? As in, giving Hartman's wife coke after she'd quit, leading to all that awfulness, something like that.
  2. Yeah, I got both of mine a while ago, but I'm really gay for this album and ordered it pretty early. He even shipped it priority for me, pretty sure I didn't pay for that (I think I paid for media).
  3. I've given him +1 a couple times just so he's no longer 1337, I'm such a prick. I'd smite Scott (just for fun, not for a real reason), but I'm saving all my smites for a certain special someone.
  4. Wow... I've been reading this board for almost 10 months now, and this has come up over and over. Is it okay for someone to sell something that they bought recently? Does flipping make you a bad person? I think the reason people feel like this is that someone selling something for a lot of money that has a lot of personal value to them somehow invalidates their ownership of it. Either that, or that because they were lucky enough or sneaky enough or whatever to get a copy of something, they should hoard it for all time. I understand why people get so bent out of shape about 'flipping' but to be logical about it, there are no reasonable arguments against it. Records are still stuff. There is no betrayal of anything in one person selling something that means something to another person. Dante had no reason to respond to any of the comments people made against this. His response to that criticism,asking Mike about it, was very respectful. Dante's been a great person to have on this board, because he's consistently funny and never acts like a dick for not getting what he wants. Folks need to grow up and realize that the value they find in something might not be the value the whole world should apply to it. I fully expect to lose my one, hard-earned karma point for this, but I'm surprised I've had it this long.
  5. Here's hoping he makes it to the wilds of the midwest...I'd even drive to Chicago to see him play.
  6. If I miss it tonight after the first 5 minutes, I'll just try tomorrow morning at VC.
  7. I like these threads because it gives me something to do before PO's go up. Did this for the last GA, for all the gimmes releases...can't think of any others...oh yeah! coop shares was a fun day.
  8. Yeah...it'll die real quick after the orders are up...unless the site crashes and we all have to bitch about it.
  9. They aren't all selectable, I don't think, unless you get the 3 pack. One he said is specifically for tour, one is for online sale, and I never got an answer for the third. (Except for it being for "blue") Thanks!
  10. does anyone remember which thread the pics of these were in (I didn't see them in this one)? I was hoping to pick my color before they're up.
  11. Ha! I forgot which timezone I was in and thought these had already sold out...I'm such an idiot.
  12. Thanks for the tip Scott. W/the discount code (its WELCOME), got the MLIW, CIS, and Nekro for $21 w/shipping. Not super amazing, but I'd been sleeping on that pic disc since everywhere wanted a lot for it. I like Nekromantix, but not $17 for a pic disc like them.
  13. Way to go guys, quitting smoking is a bitch. I'm lucky that I never made it a habit. I've taken a bunch of med school classes, and from a health-care perspective, smoking should be illegal. So should alcohol, driving, and walking down the street. From a civil liberty perspective, cigarettes are kind of tasty. One cool point though, after seven years of not smoking, your risk of lung cancer drops down to the same level as someone who never smoked. Also, if you start before 18 you're much less likely to quit.
  14. Got my blue copy a couple days ago (I forgot to pre-order...I'm a total spaz), gorgeous record, I forgot how much I like this album. Thanks for all the stickers Justin, I love ordering stuff from you.
  15. If I can ask, how many records did you sell in those 2 days? I think I counted 1000 for the two PO's yesterday (four hundred LA's, with the three recs in 100 sets, and 100 of the other color of Cocks & Dreams; 600 for GA w/100 black and 500 white). If the blue sells out today, you guys could hit 2000.
  16. haha, totally know what you mean. probably one of the fastest growing threads on VC. absolutely ridiculous. people losing their shit. holy crap. but this is coming from a guy who wasnt around when the co-op shares went up.. so i doubt this can even compare. What was bad when they went on sale was they were gone in 8 minutes. And then it was hours and hours of people being super pissed. And people being pissed at them for being pissed. The internet: serious business.
