fuck that. i've been thinking a lot (if i had longer hair) of just going as a rick roll in general. dressing up like astley and everytime someone tries to talk to me or ask who i'm supposed to be, just have a stereo on me set very loud with "never gonna give you up" that i just hit "play" everytime they talk. awesome.

[Ironic Mustache]

Interesting..............!

[SittinOnDubsWGW]

the rickroll was a lot funnier two years ago.

[THEINCREDIBLEdork]

seriously, pretty lame guys

[Ironic Mustache]

You're both just jealous you didn't think of it.

[SittinOnDubsWGW]

No not at all really. I'm still amazed that the rickroll is still semi-popular. I mean in a world where internet jokes last a couple months max anymore, the fact that people still absolutley love the rickroll over 2 years later is still beyond me.

The Rick Roll is the new "why did the chicken cross the road?"

I got it! I purposely avoided allocating brain power towards contemplating what I wanted to be for Halloween. I figured it was the type of thing where it would just come to me when the time was right. That time came today.

I'm going as Joe the Plumber.

[Repugnant Abomination]

You would.

i went to mexico for a few days, and came back tonight and read all the posts, and all of yours have sounded very similar to a close-minded, retarded average american who just happens to also be rich, no doubt contributing to this strange sense of ...patriotism? Don't think thats the right word. Anybody else notice this? But I miss the UB from college.

Last time I checked, winning mass amounts of money in a game based largely on luck of the draw doesn't constitute the American Dream.

Haha... God I love this country.

A. there have been variations of this map for at least 5 years, and i'm pretty sure several of them have been posted in the KAPotD thread before. Its not that funny after this long.

B. That map, while amusing, is nothing to warrant a "God I love this country." Do you also proclaim your love for this nation after you watch Jerry Springer, Monday night football and Cops?

C. What the fuck does Obama have to do with that map post at all? Should I just start calling you McCain, pulling out inane (rhymes, btw) defenses when you know you are going to lose? Yeah, voting for Obama is very similar to a cult because he's popular. You're such a maverick for going for the underdog, UB. What a badass.

Stop posting pictures of your black friends. We get it, you are diverse and accepting even though you are republican. I mean, at least you PAY black people to do demeaning work for you.



P.S. Everyone is gonna think you're a ginger Mario.

Ug, care to respond?

[THEINCREDIBLEdork]

blonde is ruthless, please pwn blonde. If you don't pwn blonde I'm voting for obama.

[Ugly Bastard]

Wow... do you feel better, Sam?

I didn't know you obsess over me so much... but that really sounded like it was a long time coming. Next time feel free to not be so chicken-shit as to keep it all bottled up for one big emotional wet dream.

Hey fuck you buddy. I know you'd like to think that money just falls out of the sky and into people's laps. That would make it a lot easier to sit around feeling sorry for yourself, wouldn't it? Well guess what, chicken shit? It doesn't work like that. I've had to put up tens of thousands of dollars to compete in some of the tournaments I've had success in. Slow down and digest that point. I've wagered thousands of dollars of my own money that I built up from NOTHING to take a shot at a bigger goal.

I grew up in a lower middle class household. My parents never had any money other than the prospect of their next paycheck. I'm so grateful to them for working hard to give me an opportunity to achieve more than they did by sending me to college. To you, I guess they're just "retarded, average Americans" for liking McCain. Sure, they might not be as progressive or open-minded as you, Sam, but at least they've got some fucking self-respect.

I had to work hard at learning the game of poker to be good enough to have a chance to succeed. Remember staring at yourself in the mirror all through college checking your pecs and your hair? While you were doing that, I was foregoing a social life so I could play countless thousands of hands of poker and try to learn from my mistakes in order to get better at the game. Yes, luck is in element of poker... but I haven't just "gotten lucky". Quite the opposite, actually, as the first minute of the video in my blog can document for you.

What you saw in that video was the Main Event at the World Series of Poker. Ever since I first started playing poker, it's been a dream of mine to do well in that tournament... and this year, I did. I played absolutely fantastic for five days and outlasted 97% of the field until "luck" stabbed me in the back to knock me out just short of winning a life-changing fortune.

And what I find so appealing about such a fortune is the opportunities it can lead to. My dream is to start my own business so that I can give the same opportunities to my friends and family that I have been so grateful to have had given to me. That is the American Dream, and that is why I don't like politicians whose platform is to tax away my ability to accumulate wealth and create opportunities for my friends and family to have a better life than the one I was born into.

If you want to be one of the people in my life I consider a friend, one of the people who takes part in the process of helping each other realize our highest dreams and goals... I would like that a lot. But if you'd rather run to the government with your hand held out hoping they'll make money fall out of the sky and into your lap... it's been real.

Blah blah blah. Argue/Debate cold, not hot. Real first names? Is that like when parents are upset and use their childrens full names so they KNOW they're in trouble? Is this some form of mental manipulation to demean me? Yes, you got my number, COREY, you're a psychoanalytical genius. I obsess over you all the time and this is just the result of me being a coward. Cause thats the Sam everyone here knows. And that post was so emotion-laden, I slit my wrists as soon as I hit "submit". Stick to predicting peoples motives in poker pal, your real-world skills are slightly skewed.

I'm not Marty McFly. I really don't know what you're trying to accomplish with the chickenshit line. I also don't recall bringing your parents into this or your upbringing, but I don't really think you're going to get sympathy on that note from the likes of me, COREY. I never called them retarded, average americans, i said you are SOUNDING like one with your poorly-thought out and unfounded political comments on a message board when I know you are better than that. Unlike some people named COREY, I don't attack half of the US population on this message board regularly simply because of their political preferences, only the ones who show their mental prowess or lack thereof, which tend to be more from the right side of the aisle. I'm not even going to address the self-respect line, because it made no sense anyways.

I do remember that quite well. Am I still doing that? What are you implying, COREY? Because not once have I ever implied that you were anything negative due to what you do in your free time, despite my personal beliefs. I also don't have to pay people to shop for me, as i can recognize what looks good and what doesnt, or do I have to read books like "The Game" to get ass because its never been too hard for me to get once I learned to forsake emotion. I have invested my time into different forms of social and human behavioral analysis, something which I have no doubt will come to serve me eventually, but I, just as you did, have to bide my time and plan carefully, and wait for the right opportunity. I have no doubt in your skill in poker from the countless hours you stayed in on weekends in college in front of your computer when you weren't participating in your main social outing of jumping out of planes (which is still pretty cool), but I also highly doubt that you, or many of the current poker superstars would be in their position if it weren't for a certain aspect of luck, and i'm not just talking about the cards you're dealt, literally at least. You cannot deny that in the past 5-10 years the business of poker (online gambling, WSP, etc) has boomed, and whether or not you actually recognized the potential of the ability for you to succeed when you first started playing poker online or not (although if you do lay claim to this, there are some telltale signs that you didn't; staying in college for a degree neither of us did or will go into, for example), the fact that it is so popular has very much contributed to your current success.

I don't ask for handouts from anybody (as you well know) and never have, including the government. I could give a fuck less about the taxes, COREY, which is really what frustrates me most about (what seems to be) your whole political foundation. It seems to me the only thing you are focused on in this political campaign is the tax issue, and the only two people on the board who are so ridiculously opposed to it are you and GWB, both of you staunch economic republicans who also both happen to have recently come into more money than either of you have ever possessed before. Am I saying that money = republican? When it comes to taxes, maybe. I don't know. I know that the GWB I know very rarely gets/got into intellectual conversations in person and only seems to do so behind the facade of Nubblies.net, which is irrelevant but worth noting anyways, and I know that I personally think that you, COREY, have changed a bit from when I knew you. I'm not attacking you dude, at least not meaning to, but i know that you are better than popping onto nubblies every once in a while to bash Obama, who, while his financial policies may need some work, seems to be the more reasonable of the two candidates and I personally believe does not warrant the kind of childish, seemingly uneducated insults you are throwing towards him.

[Mr. Blonde]

On a much, much lighter note, my halloween costume:








I don't know, my beard is making the chin awfully huge. Might have to trim it down, although i really don't want to. Also I need to get a plain black tie instead of that fucking paisley thing.

[DDTempest]

What happened to Rorschach?

[Repugnant Abomination]

UB = douchebag.

I hope Obama wins so he can give me UB's money and I can roll around in it.

[SittinOnDubsWGW]

The costume is solid blonde.

I'm not dressing up again this year due to fucking work, horseshit.

[Ironic Mustache]

Alright I'm going to have to battle that costume because mine is better. You don't even have a sword and your beard makes you look like American Dad. I'll get everything together and post it sometime this week.

I'll give you the beard comment, but I wasn't sure about carrying a metal katana around to the bars or a house party when i'm out drinking and have somewhat of a drunken temper. BLONDE SMASH!!!. Also, I probably have a more dr. mcninja build because, as i recall, you're a short mexican, whereas i'm a tall thin muscular anglo saxon.

[Ironic Mustache]

In reality I'm actually Irish but since only my hands and a small part of my face will be visible, it might not help me much. Except that I'll be drinking with my ever-present Irish vigor.

Other than that I'm pretty much just short and thin and I don't think anyone will notice the difference. Had we thought this out ahead of time though, (and also if we were anywhere near the same place on halloween) I would have gladly gone as Gordito. That would have been fucking awesome.

Oh, and I worked fairly hard to find a plastic ninja sword that didn't look ghetto but would more than likely be allowed in bars. I'm not the person who should be drinking with a katana either. Repug happened to call me randomly at like 11pm a few years ago and had to talk me out of impaling my ex's new boyfriend with one. The timing was AWESOME. She lived like a block away from me and I was about halfway to her house with it when he called.

Good call on the Gordito. I had thought of that if you could get one of those costumes where somebody is riding a horse or an ostrich and the animals legs are actually their own...but have one be a dinosaur. That'd be pretty sweet.


Another problem...how are we going to be drinking. Am I gonna have to have my mask halfway up the whole night? Also, am I gonna hvae to take my mask off at every bar I go to? That would suck.


part of me just wants to say fuck it and get a zip up olive jumpsuit with a pillow in it, buy a cigar and go as fidel castro. I could def. pull it off with this beard.
