that was a joke

I know. Mine wasn't though. Glad I didn't fall and had worn my pair of boots that was already torn up to that show.

And no I don't need an ipad to increase my self worth.

How about a Sega CD to increase your self worth?

Somebody To Shove is one of the greatest mosh pit anthems of all time!!

*watches video*

Wait what? How is that slow radio music even moshable?

I'm saying that in the perspective of the angsty teenager I was in 1993 when I first heard the song.. You know, before bands like Disturbed and Limp Bizkit ruined hard rock??!

I remember that time I got really fucked up in the Soul Asylum mosh pit. Those fans are vicious.

Pfft. I was years and years ago but call me when you've been in a mosh pit where the floor is covered in broken beer bottles.

ahem.

this was taken when i was 18, after a darkest hour set.



this was taken during phoenix bodies' set at dude fest 2008, just before i was taken to the hospital to have 4 staples put in my skull. i am the shirtless guy next to the inflatable dolphin. my mother was in attendance.



this was at a bar in indy during another phoenix bodies set. again, i am the one on everyone's head.

[Hobie-wan]

ahem.

Oh I figured someone would have better stories. I opted for staying on my feet while bouncing around that night.

Guess what I didn't get? I got neither an Iphone nor a car! Am I the only one who didn't get an iPhone or a car for Christmas?

Whiny pricks. If you got something at all you should be thankful. This is one of the many reason I hate the Christmas season.

Reminds me of people whining they didn't get a Christmas bonus, or one smaller than they hoped for. Be happy you have a job with things in the crapper.

Damned whiny entitlement jerkholes.

PISS OFF!!

And of course I'm gonna whine, because this confirms that no one in my family gets me. I mean, I made a list and received nothing even remotely resembling any of the items on my list, which I posted to Facebook. At least when I give a gift, it's based on the person and what I know about them. But God forbid anyone even look into my interests to get an idea. And don't go by generalities (I like RPGs, but that may not mean I'll like Astonishia Story). And now, if I want House of the Dead 2&3 Return for Wii or a Class of Nuke 'Em High T-shirt, it's up to me.

And I didn't get a bonus at a job where I am underappreciated and screwed outta my hours. And when 12 hours a week and no unemployment is a best-case scenario in the winter, I'm gonna complain about not getting a bonus!

Wait, are you seriously complaining that people who give you something out of the goodness of their heart aren't getting you the right thing? You're getting something absolutely for free. I mean, if you don't like it, great, you don't have to like it, no one's forcing you to, but to get angry about it? I didn't always get what I wanted when I was a kid (and now I get nothing except for what I get when my gf and I exchange gifts), but I was always thankful to get something. Even junk, you can find some use for it. Like once I got a Tamogotchi for Christmas when I was 11, I promptly regifted that to my younger sister. Worked out, huh?

[AppleQueso]

I got fuck-all for christmas.

Yeah.

[aaron]

i didn't get much, let alone anything i wanted, but i was happy to spend the day with my family, even though it was stressful. i used to be kind of worried about getting what i wanted but i've learned over the years that "things" really aren't important and i'm actually better off with less stuff. the gift i was most excited about came from my dad, which consisted of a bunch of regifted tools. very thoughtful and i know it didn't cost him a thing.

My best thing was an HDMI-switch with IR, love it! Now I can switch between the PS3 and computer from the comfort of my sofa.

I also got inFamous 2, Bulletstorm, and Spider-man.
