“Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here’s Tom with the Weather.” — Comedian : Bill Hicks
Good man, good man.
Also, happy (belated) birthday to me! I am now 22. Huzzah!
To come clean, AAFES has been using pogs – 1.5-inch polystyrene discs, for those who don’t recall the 90’s fad – as currency on military bases in Afghanistan and Iraq since 2001. Putting Marvel super heroes on the pogs in June 2008 simply made the program a little bit cooler.
“We can’t print money,” said Dr. Jim Skibo, VP of Marketing and Advertising for the AAFES. “[And] we will not ship coinage into the warzone. It costs a small fortune to ship stuff like that, so we use [the pogs] as gift certificates.”
Lulz. To quote my awesome friend Steph, “That means, if I ever join the military, I’ll be rich!!!! And dead. Mostly dead.” My sentiments exactly…
Next: Pro-drug FTW!
Ah, so much win in this video. A few of the “WIN!” quotes:
“I have a PhD in science, and I know more than you!”
“I just went to a rave last week and got totally blotto!” (on a side note: I’ve never heard of the term blotto. Is it a real term people actually use? I just feel like I would have heard it by now….)
“It is important to remember that drug testing has NOTHING to do with job performance!” (Can I get an amen sister!)
” ‘Oh no Dr. Burke!’, you whine, ‘I am too scared to truly open my mind, and will only smoke reefer. Is there anything I can do?’ Yes, there is, silly boy” (hahahaha, epic!)
Flash game called Ninja Ball. It’s like the escape rope in worms, but an ENTIRE GAME based around it. At one point, someone I know had the top score on this, but it’s been a while, and I forget their screen name, so I don’t know if they still hold it. Yes, you will waste your time endlessly. You’re welcome! 🙂
