I'm having lunch with an old friend, and he kept sniffling while eating. I was starting to get grossed out, and asked if he needed to blow his nose at the bathroom but he said it must have been some allergies. Was I an ass to get grossed out?
- yes - you sound female.fadein11
- drink a bit of water, you sound a hair grumpy. Dude can't help it if he has allergies.capn_ron

i was gifted some cultured butter made by amish folks. was excited for it to blow my mind or something but it tastes like how a cow smells.
- nastydirtydesign
- its fermented? how old is it? its made in the winter?yurimon
- The best time for raw butter is late spring through to late summer, early fall. cows eat only grass n its nutrition value is higher. should be a bright yellowyurimon
- winter butter is pale.. think aboot, it same with milk.yurimon
- but over all i had raw cultured butter and it does have a bit gamey smell. shouldnt be over powering though.yurimon
- it's fresh, and a yellow colorscarabin
- you ever raise cows, yuri?scarabin
- no but im walking with a bunch of sheep down the road.
enernerner.. sheep was joke.yurimon - my favorite comment ever on QBN "you ever raise cows, yuri?"capn_ron
- I know some farmers and been around it some bit. a know a really good one. he lets his cows rest in winter. its all about the grasses they eat. you have toyurimon
- watch. some grasses spoil the milk, bad for cows. also some make the milk bad.yurimon
- have you done it?yurimon
- never personally raised any but i've lived on land with some. used to wake up with a cow's head in my window looking around my room 'n' shitscarabin
- ^
Best. Burning Man. Ever.ETM - when it comes to cows, the Amish do it right! Love my Amish milk********
- cultured butter is the best. I'm jealous. Can only get the French stuff here and it's $8+ a block. Eat it like a good cheese : )MrT

Tore out the carpets in the condo after work. They're so old the backing glue/mesh thing had begun crumbling to dust.
Need to rent a power chisel or something to get the tiles in the foyer.
- thought it's brand new...pango
- power chisels are fun.Gnash
- Rent a dual head Edco floor grinder.

- cement or wood floor underneath?yurimon

- lower price point. this one is kind of beautiful http://www.homedepot…bklyndroobeki
- oops. misread. not a hand chiselbklyndroobeki
- The building is over 30 years old, the condo is just "new" to us. Cement floor under it.i_monk
- I've seen vids of people removing the tile mastic/thinset by hand, so I might give that a shot this weekend.i_monk
- ^ so much easier with a chisel -- if I had one I'd lend it to you :)Gnash

Today I'm really feeling the creative burnout.
I woke up hating my job and I really don't give a shit about your logo or whatever creative "urgency" you think you have to tell random people about your shitty business or service.And I'm just ranting, I don't care about ways to get inspired and blah blah blah, save that shit for your interns.
- I hear you********
- I hear you too, manBennn
- Hate your job or just this one client? Remember it is what pays your bills and find a creative outlet just for you.bainbridge
- I know I know, just ranting. I don't HATE my job like you guys hate Donald Trump. I just don't feel like pushing pixels for other people, today.Maaku
- I still love my job but really don't give two fucks about clients, the industry, any industry and all its bullshit********
- I hear you

Can you be friends with a woman you're not attracted to?
Like you meet, you have common interests and stuff and then get the feeling she's kind of into you off of a sudden, but you don't want to give that impression or lead her on, so you kind of stop being so nice and friendly, so then it gets weird?
- yesGnash
- women do it all the timemonospaced
- Are you only friends with people you're attracted to?Maaku
- dude, if romantic comedies have taught us anything it's that she's your soul mate._niko
- If she's got feelings for you, you better cool it off.pinkfloyd
- Yes to the question, but the second part is not the definition of being friends.i_monk
- Say you have a small weinerpinkfloyd
- Which is probably true.pinkfloyd
- Maaku really didn't understand the sentiment, did he..********
- I've been friends with women I don't find attractive who wanted more from me. It really doesn't work in the end...********
- Nothing wrong with having friends with benefits.Maaku
- yes you can.********
- There's something wrong with it if you're not attracted to them. Did you miss the point again? Lol********
- lol :PMaaku
- true friends fuck... at least once********
- why does my asshats notes always make it to the cover page?pinkfloyd
- Jesus, do the opposite of whatever Maaku says and you'll be finepinkfloyd
- just remember, all she has to do is take off her glasses and she'll look like a supermodelscarabin
- you appear to here as insincere, and dishonest, like takn decookies it usually goes south if you avoid honest discussion preferably prior to what you have done.yurimon
- okay, you're not attracted to her but is she hot? or you say you're not attracted to her cause she's not hot?********
- friends do favors to each other. would it be a favor to you or to her, honestly, if you had sex?********
- if you're not interested in her why were you being nice in the first place?********
- the last one was a joke. iy's good to know there's people who are honestly nice.********
- I mean, without any hidden interest.********
- does she have bad breath?********
- if she's naked, can you get it up?pinkfloyd
- Bad breath is an instant turn off, I feel you.Maaku
- I thought your name was brainbridge********
- the answer is yes, you can be freindly to her. you acting like a decent person doesn't hinge on what you assume her intentions to be********
- unless you don't know the difference between being nice and flirting, a lot of people don't. if you spend time with her alone then you are leading her on********
- , that's a different story. thus whole 'into you all of a sudden' but sounds like you are just clueless and being a dick to her in reaction to your own insecuri********
- ties and obliviousness. i could be wrong but you sound like a vag tease********
- Have set with herCALLES
- fuck! terry is a psychologist!********
- and a good one too!********
- lol thanks oey.
edit* thus=this but=bit******** - Simple: Don't flirt with her—cut your dick off if you have to—but YES, it's possible to be friendly w/a girl you're not attracted to— you neanderthal. :) <3PonyBoy
- it's also possible to be friends with a girl one is attracted to in some way. true.********
- #vagteasepinkfloyd
- i'm with terry_clothbklyndroobeki
- Ponyboy missed the point as well. The fact he isn't attracted to her isn't the problem, is it. It's the fact she's into him that might make friendship an issue********
- not necessary if he has good chat in.yurimon
- Friends with benefits, just close your eyes.Maaku
- Say "I get the sense that you're into me... I'm not into you though. Friends?"cannonball1978
- ^ way too awkward. Just talk about a girl you really want to bang.Gnash

Anyone know much about camera lenses?
I'm looking to change my lens from 50mm to either a 24mm or 40mm lens to work in a smaller confined area of 4'x4' for product photography shots. I need to get more background in my shots, but I'm worried about getting distortion with a 24mm lens. I wonder if a 40mm will make a difference to the 50mm lens. Any thoughts of whether a 24mm or 40mm lens might be better?- What size sensor is it? 24mm is much wider than 50mm and will change the appearance of the products a lot.nb
- If you want to get it perfect, find someone with a cheap zoom you can borrow, and test the different focal lengths.nb
- maybe rent the 40mm option from a shop to get a real test.capn_ron
- How big is the background? What's the set up like?pango
- Sensor size APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm)?********
- never thought about renting lenses before.********
- Background and table is both 2'x4' which gives me 4'x4' of space for my tripod.********
- renting can be pretty cheap for lenses that aren't too expensive.capn_ron
- i estimate renting costs about 12% of the lens. i think using a return policy could be cheaper as long as there is no shipping or restocking costs.********
- judging from the description of your set up.... you might actually want something higher focal point. 70mm and up.pango
- set the camera as far as you have can. Cuz lens with higher focal point actually magnifies the background relatively.pango
- not sure if you need macro feature... depends on how big is the subject in relation to the background....?pango
- Won't i need more space to shoot with a 70mm lens? I can barely move around with a 50mm********
- i do need closeups. I just got a used 'like new' 40mm lens for under $100, and saved $50. i just hope there's a useful difference between a 40mm and 50mm.********
- ...but now that you mentioned a 70mm lens and them being so pricey, i may have to think about renting!********
- maybe something like this?http://www.bhph...pango

I've had cold sweaty palms for the past two days straight, it's horrible. Just had to shake a clients hand, rather embarrassing.
Am I dying?
- suck it up man, were all dying.Al_dizzle
- Suck the cold sweat up?********
- stress, sleep, change in diet? too much fish n chips?yurimon
- can be a symptom of an anxiety disorder.Gnash
- Sounds like withdrawals********
- Only a narrow minded top arsehole would attribute it to withdrawals. There's obviously a plethora of potential reasons.********
- Irrational anxiety is obvious, but I'm at a loss to explain exactly why...********
- I'm an angry cunt today too.********
- anxiety is insidious (my daughter suffers from it). It's not always easy to identify the source as it's almost always irrational.Gnash
- If it was i would start with looking at habits, diet, etc. sometimes taking a break from qbn helps.. heheheyurimon
- are your knees weak? arms heavy?scarabin
- had any spaghetti recently?scarabin
- Lol scarabin. And lol set, i had a laugh picturing you banging dope into your kardashian assed asian tiger thing********

this equation is a math limerick:
A dozen, a gross, and a score
Plus three times the square root of four
Divided by seven
Plus five times eleven
Is nine squared and not a bit more.

I really don't want to leave the southwest :( No decisions have been made yet but I know my wife's not really digging it out here (she gave me a year)... she misses her family and the east terribly.
I grew up back there too but I DO NOT want to move back there... I'd like to move more rural but not into a place that blasts you w/snow, sleet and other unholy plague-like weather such as 3 days of overcast skies in a row... ... no....no no no NOOOOO!
- East Coast Hater!utopian
- people are such PUSSIES about snow and weather..I lived in San Diego for 16 years and that shit got old.cbass99
- i grew up in the snow and weather... i bailed from it when I finally got the chance. It's 87°F here in AZ right now... but back east where 'home is' it's 24° :(PonyBoy
- sorry man, good luck with whatever you decide.cbass99
- there's a compromise to be found no doubt. i donno though, 87 degrees sounds pretty hellish to me, ill take 29 over 87********
- it's a dry heat, terry (not just being silly)... your clothes do not stick to you like when it's 75° in NH... it feels maybe 70° right now (@87°) if in NH/MAPonyBoy
- iv'e got relatives in tx whom i have visited in the summer so i know what you mean but still. maybe somewhere down in nc or va might suit the two of you********
- Youre screwed.Hayoth
- what exactly is your wife not liking over there?********
- Paul, lack of family seems to be the main issue. She does miss the ocean and seasons but also mentioned she enjoyed jumping in the pool on March 1st.PonyBoy
- Maybe its time to put that bun in the oven. It's time to build your own family.********
- Hmm... we're ready to do that actually. Part of moving back toward her family would be so her parents would be near their grandkids.PonyBoy
- You will be ok Kev, don't worry for this. But i would change your dry 87° four our cold and humidity this now... Hate to ride my roller like a hamster :(OBBTKN
