The Video Card ThunderStain was so kind to offer in the end had an absurd shipment price, so we both decided to discard the idea..
Now i'm Videocard-less again with shitty TF2..
And i still can't find a job.. DON'T WORK AS A PART TIME JOURNALIST!!! Shit isn't useful for your CV.
Also come to Canada. Jobs here.
And I have an extra video card that I can just give you (7600 GT).

Do i have to have a passport to move to Canada for work?

probably.
or some sort of legal document saying you aren't an illegal immigrant.
They actually check for that here.
I'm driving to work really tired (wife couldn't sleep so she wants me up too) turns out I was going 14 miles an hour over the speedlimit after getting off the interstate. Didn't even know. Thought I was going as fast as the car in front of me. $206 ticket I can't afford. Guess I will add it to the pile of money I don't have I owe to the government.
I really need some good news soon (or today would be nice).

On the bright side, if you were going above 15 mph over, in most states that's considered a felony as "reckless driving", people don't always get charged like this, but if the cop is feeling particularly dickish, he technically can.
Haha my teacher caught me reusing the same piece of artwork for another class. Guess I don't get credit for it. I think I'm in a lot bigger trouble too, just got a notice this morning.
the control-c is strong with this one

Georgia passed the "super speeder law" fairly recently. If you get caught going over 85 mph...instant $500 ticket. no joke.
So all my friends decided to start drinking at once (they're like 16), which would be fine except they're all stupid and are bound to fuck shit up, which means I have to look out for them. Yay for more stress.
kudos for looking out for your friends, now do them a favor and let them REALLY fuck this up, just so they get it.Â
I have to agree with Dark and Crow. If they don't make their mistakes and learn now, they might never learn later when it actually matters.
Remember when you were tall enough to touch the top of the stove? Remember when you ignored your parents enough to do it? Remember how you never did it again? It's kinda like that. You let them get so hammered they can't stand, then see how they enjoy binge drinking after that.

My Pai Mei was cheap plastic bottle whiskey and tequila. I learned that binge drinking wasn't fun after that. However I did learn that it leads to fucking fat ugly chicks with floppy tits.
According to the bookkeeper at my appraising job my boss may be trying to welsh on paying me my portion of the retainer and I'm about to tell him to go fuck himself. I need that money to live while I work on this shit. In fact most of that money is already spoken for since A) I still owe the government a lot and B) I've been living off my credit card for the past 3 weeks because this check was late and in the expectation that I would pay it off when I get it. The rest would be paying my living expenses until it's done and we get paid the balance. Me getting my share was always the deal and I dug myself in a hole relying on that deal.
I am seriously fucking pissed right now, I'm about to leave and I guess just ask for a bailout from my grandparents.
