Holy shit, I can't believe I'm (PARTIALLY) agreeing with you.
I have no problem with preventing the breeding of (read: not killing the currently living ones) Pitbulls, and I absolutely agree that whatever crime the Pitbull commits, the owner should be responsible as though they did it themselves (unless they're voluntary rescue owners, at least).
The whole... sentencing them to 50 years in prison and then executing them... thing, is a tad overkill, but yeah, people who breed Pitbulls should be held responsible for what they voluntarily chose to create. -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Nothing more annoying than a twat with a loud car stereo.
I long to be that very twat.
Or at least, to have the ability to be said twat.
These days, I do still love the vibrations of a powerful set of subwoofers (INB4 SEX JOKES), but I actually have come to realize, with time and experience, the fundamental truth that:
Just because I'm super into a particular musical piece at any given moment, it does not automatically imply that everyone else around me is in the exact same state of mind/mood.
I'd use it responsibly... But I still want it. -

It's so fucking ironic to me that the so-called "tolerant" left are so against victim blaming when it comes to rape, or domestic violence, or anything where the victim is a woman, but yet they are so prone to such tactics as doxxing.
They literally force people to protect themselves from being victimized. -

Originally posted by OG_GREENPLASTIC_JOHNSON_III what i want to know is why the fuck are you ruining your meth high with alcohol?
I'm just a downer (CNS depressant) kinda guy...
I get a brief euphoria from stimulants (coke/crack, meth, etc), but a few minutes later I feel like absolute shit.
It's why I was an opiate addict way back when.
And why I've been an alcoholic for like 15 years.
Everybody wants to get up, but I just wanna get down, know what I'm sayin'? -

Originally posted by Sudo he's gonna be back to the same degenerate shit soon and you likely won't be as close. people do all kinds of things when they get out of jail. I think he wants to bang you
I know that you know this kinda shit.
I've done some dirt, sure, nothing major, but I've never done anything more than a night in a holding cell.
So I just don't know how this kinda shit plays out.
Like, is he done for good?
He's doing favors for "prison social clubs" (I don't wanna start getting into some shit that can be interpreted as some rat shit), and... I feel like he's just securing his lifelong membership for the prison yard gym facilities, ya know?
You don't just walk away and sever all ties from doing favors for this kind of people... right? -
2019-06-05 at 4:25 PM UTC in When your homeboy get out of jail and tap on your window at 5 AMDamnit... He's gone now. Literally, INTENTIONALLY, back to jail.
He's gonna breach deliberately because he's working for the "prison postal service" now.
Like, dude...
I'm more disappointing in this shit than the drug use, or even the auto theft shit.
I known this nigga since we was like 7 and playing on monkey bars and shit. Now he's working for the wrong crowd, rectum full of some dumb shit, hopskipping right back into the big house.
Like, FUCK.
And now I'm day drinking because:
1. I'm high on meth, which I rarely do anymore (so it's a lot more involving than it is for habitual users).
2. I'm worried about him because he's basically family.
Like, damn.
My biological siblings might be boring by comparison, but at least they don't put me through this shit. -

I know I dun mentioned some ratchet niggas coming around my hood as of late, but, my OG homeboy that I known since grade 1 (back in the 80s), just so happens to be of similar ilk...
But he's a homie, and I can't refuse entry. Random bums and shit are one thing, but when brethren come 'round...
But now I'm smoking meth and drinking at 7:30 AM. Like damn. I'm tryna fix this shit in my life, but he's basically family. I honestly just guessed he was dead bout a year ago. I'm just happy to see he's still breathing.
Can you relate? -

I've recently abandoned the whole idea of putting too much stock into coincidences...
But...
I was actually listening to that track the other day (Xzibit, circa 2000?). -
2019-06-05 at 10:24 AM UTC in UNINTENTIONAL ASMR (my own; car driving - no vocals)Okay, I dunno how many of you all do the whole ASMR thing, but I pretty much live by that shit if I'm trying to fall asleep sober (which I am not right now, for whatever it matters).
Normally, there is a voice involved, but... I just now found this video that I recorded, like 4 years ago, of myself driving (dash cam) from one place to another, for about 20 minutes... where I don't utter so much as a fraction of a word from what I can tell.
I'm into ASMR, but incredibly picky about what I listen to.
But this is kinda relaxing... I dunno?
If anyone wants to hear it, I put it on YouTube.
If you're into soothing car ride sounds, with zero human verbiage, you might wanna check it out. -
2019-06-05 at 10:20 AM UTC in GerundI once randomly ran into a dude in a park name Gerald.
It sounds way worse than it is.
It was only about 5-6 years ago. I was on the methadone program (to get off of heroin), and doing a ton of phenazepam (a highly potent research chemical benzo), and had a few drinks in me to boot...
He handed me a pill, and said it was MDMA.
I took it without a second's hesitation.
BUT, right after I swallowed it, paranoia started kicking in (too little, too late, as it so happens).
Suddenly, I got cravings for heroin (this was right at the crux of my transition from heroin to methadone - eventually to no opiates at all years later).
So, I excused myself, but gave him my number (we were clearly neighbours, as the park at which we met was a mere block and a half away).
I called my dealer for some more down (opiates)... or was it meth? I was doing meth from time to time back then, it might have been meth. Either way, I called my dealer up and "placed my order."
Gerald called back shortly thereafter, and asked me if I wanted to meet him back at the park (only half a block away... not that big a deal in the greater scheme of things), but I said no, because when you're an addict, literally nothing matters, other than getting your next fix.
So yeah, that's my story of meeting a dude named Gerald. -

You shoulda heard it tho...
Like, I felt like top fucking gangster rolling around with him. People talk about the "car you can hear from a mile away" myth... his was the real deal.
But yeah, his car was like a ~2004 Honda Civic (and this was about 2015/2016).
I even remember this one older Asian gentleman approaching us in an underground parking lot (after my friend's sound system started setting off car alarms), complimenting him on the sound, but saying "now you just need to put it into a better car." -

A video.
Also, it was a minivan (which of course affects acoustics... my last car audio system back in '03 was ONE SINGLE 8# SUBWOOFER, and everybody who rode in that motherfucker remembers that shit... it was a Toyota Celica, 88/89).
I was also living out of it at the time, as may be indicated by the video. -
2019-06-05 at 9:17 AM UTC in Car AudioAny of y'all ever had some real shit bangin' outta your trunk?
A few years ago I had two 12" Audiobahn subwoofers that I got used off of craigslist for $80 (for the pair).
I also managed to find a speaker box for the two of 'em at a chain store for super cheap because it wasn't quite perfect (had some kind of imperceptible flaw).
I also managed to find a deck for relatively cheap by looking around for sales.
And then (and this was the most expensive part of all), I found a cheap amp for sale. I know I should have spent more on a more quality amp... That's what it all ultimately comes down to... But I got the subwoofers for $80 and the box for $50... So I settled for a $250 amp. I can't even remember the brand/manufacturer. All I remember is that I made sure that it was rated for 1,000 watts RMS (wired at 1 ohm). I honestly don't even remember what RMS stands for, but I remember my research telling me it was the most important evaluative metric for an amplifier.
Finally, I got all the cables and other miscellaneous parts I would need from various online vendors. I even got... I wanna say 2 gauge... but it's been like 4 years and I can't remember all the specs as well as I'd like. But I knew that having 2 x 400 watts, it was gonna take some quality electrical wiring (nice and thick... that's what she said).
I put it all together myself to save yet more money. It was by no means easy (for someone like me with next to no experience installing car audio... I had a quasi-decent system back in '03, but a high school friend helped me out... well, he pretty much did it all).
...
And then... a friend of mine, doing that natural male thing that dude's do, went out and outdid me within a few weeks by getting two 12" JL7's, and some top-end 6x9's, and the whole nine yards... and he got it all professionally installed. It cost him about $15,000 total (compared to my ~$750 total - excluding (my own personal) labor), but it did blow my shit RIGHT OUT of the water.
