Had reconstructive surgery on my nose yesterday after breaking it a few times and not being able to breathe through it. Smooth sailing man - general anesthetic was fun, had loads of dreams and then woke up feeling like I'd taken a couple of E's. Lounged around in my private room watching star trek all day and then went home. I look like Iv'e been smashed in the face with a sledge hammer but no pain or anything just constant brain oozing out of my nose.
Good times.

Haha yea I like my nose too, actually doesn't look too beat up (before or after surgery) just a little bent.
First time was an elbow to the nose in a tournament when I was like 16. Second time was last year and my 6'3" friend ap chuggi'd (front kicked) me with the ball of his foot square in my nose. After that I couldn't breathe through it.
My nose is completely bloody and blocked now and will be for another 4 weeks but apparently they have completely straightened the septum and 80% chance of completely sorting out my breathing!
And yea, where the fuck was my guard!
- front kick to the nose! OUCH!
so do you still compete? how long you been doing it?
hope it all gets better!Hombre_Lobo

so.. the interview went really well.. took about 2 hours. met the president, and vp of the brand and vp of sales. they have positions open now for jr designers and 1 senior. they feel i have more to bring to the table and more experience then their current senior designer and we spoke towards a creative or design director position, but do not have that position at the moment. i advised that since the position is not available at the moment that we should start on a freelance basis where i can show what i can bring to the table and they accepted as they want to create a position for me. also they accepted my rate for freelance and fulltime work, both of which is higher than i ever asked for. w00t!!

on one side of the coin this place destroys people re-appropriating other peoples work, on the other they fully support giving advice on links and more sadly examples to rip when requested by other members
get your shit straight folks, either you support ripping or you don't
- Huge diference between ripping and finding inspiration within someones work.sea_sea
- using reference material =/= rippingscarabin
- he created a profile just for that...Hombre_Lobo
- Ok there's clearly a background story to this I'm missing. Been gone too long.sea_sea

Had a little run in today with a Civic Type-R, anyway he got the better of me at the lights so had to stop for a red, 20 seconds later I see the Civic pulled over by an undercover Jag.
I got lucky today.

if i used the word "hipster" in an urban outfitters campaign would it ruin the campaign? (i.e., cause hipsters to abandon the place)

So after my surgery I was told to take 2 co-codamol tablets every four hours. I've been taking them every 4 hours for 2 days now and just looked on the side of the box and it says no more than 8 tablets every 24 hours. So I've fucking overdosed on it.
I ring the hospital and they say that unless there is history of liver disease I shouldn't worry unless I've taken 20 in 24 hours. Which makes me feel a little better.
Only problem is now I am not allowed to take it for another 24 hours and I have just had reconstructive surgery on my fucking nose. Last time I took anything was about 4 hours ago and my nose is starting to throb like mad. How the fuck I am going to sleep with this I don't know.
Fun times eh.
- Still at least im not going to die of liver failure. Hopefully.********
- Hope that you feel better...utopian

i got pulled over last night. I cannot believe how bright cop lights are now days!! If I was still getting fucked up I think I would have had heart failure.
My old Benz is having electrical issues, I have replaced the right headlight bulb twice and it keeps blowing up. All my fuses are good too so I think I'm going to have to take it to a mechanic.
- I used to have a C 240 that had bunk electrical. 6x I took it to MBUSA and they told me it wasn't a lemon********
- I dropped that #$%# off in florida and told them they could have it.********
