The Octagon Bar: The Most Fun You Can Have With Your Pants Down

EYKIW is a frightening place

 

[Techie2000]

Okay so I was eating one of those packages of Austin "Toasty Crackers with Peanut Butter" and one of the crackers, had a full bottom cracker, but only half a top cracker and half the peanut butter.

EYKIW is a frightening place

I've recently come to realize the same thing. If only because of the anti-U2 and Bono threads.

 

[U2democrat]

weird!!!!!!!

i need food. i ate a ton of popcorn and so i didn't eat dinner...which is SO unhealthy.

 

[Techie2000]

I had a bagel for breakfast, and then for Dinner (around 4:00) I had two hot dogs and some roasted potatoes. I haven't eaten since and I can't really make anything since it's so late so I've found this stash of packages of peanut butter crackers.

 

[Techie2000]

So anyways, I cleaned my room today while watching my Slane DVD. I finally hung up my picture from my DC trip that was a little over a year ago. I miss DC...

 

[U2democrat]

DC......

i'm only an hour and a half away from there...and actually my parents and i will probably be moving there in september/october i plan to live and work there (duh)

 

[Techie2000]

I am many hours away from there. I don't plan on living nor working there for at least four years, maybe more. If I were to go, I'd be more interested in holding an elected position than working as a staffer. I think I'd prefer working on campaign work or something on the state level than something down in DC, although that's partially because I already know a lot of the people on the state level. I seriously considered majoring in political science, but everyone I had talked to, told me that unless I went to law school, which I wasn't overly interested in doing, it's tough to get a job. So I'm majoring in chemistry, but am more interested in politics, but work as a computer consultant, this is completely logical, right?

 

[U2democrat]

oh dude you should go for poli sci! its not too late to change your mind. it's such a broad major, you can do so much with it.

 

[Techie2000]

Well it is too late, I'd have to change schools and of all the schools around here, the one I'm going to is really the only one I liked.

 

[U2democrat]

well maybe you could work for me

 

[Techie2000]

What exactly do you learn with a political science major anyways?

 

[U2democrat]

depends on what path you take. you can do criminal justice, pre law, international relations, american politics. i'm doing american politics.

 

[Techie2000]

I'm not sure if I'd do american politics because I already read and study that obsessively on a daily basis and I'd be afraid I would be paying to learn things I already know (yes I'm a geek ). Criminal justice and pre law sound blah, so I'd guess I'd go for international relations if something happened and I did it.

 

[U2democrat]

well if you ever consider switching to poli sci or anything like that i'll be glad to answer any questions you might have

 

[U2democrat]

holy crap i didn't realize it was after midnight

 

[Techie2000]

I probably won't end up switching, I don't believe, but I won't let my major limit my options... However I will keep your offer in mind if my situation changes.

 

[Techie2000]

holy crap i didn't realize it was after midnight

Nothing wrong with that when I have no plans tomorrow. One more day till the election in the Ohio 2nd...

 

[U2democrat]

i have a hair appointment at 11:30. that's too early. then my dad and i are going out to buy a laptop

 

[Techie2000]

Awsome. What kind of laptop? I got mine already from Dell. My college had some sort deal with them and I ended up getting a huge discount. I hate getting my hair done. I think mine looks ugly and I don't know what to do with it. I kind of want to shave it all off, but Mom says I won't look good with really short hair and I just don't like it. Plus I really hate the chemical smell of the place I get haircuts from...

 

[U2democrat]

i think its a toshiba celeron M...or centrino...if you have the best buy catalog thingy from today's newspapers the one on the front is it.

 

[Techie2000]

Ah, Toshiba is an excellent brand. I just had a thought, if I dye my hair grey, do you think people will stop mistaking me for an elementary school kid?

 

[U2democrat]

i don't know....but maybe i'd find you extremely attractive.........















just kidding!

 

[Techie2000]

I have to go clothing shopping too. I am horrible at that also. I try watching some of those queer guys, but they just don't seem to provide help to me. Clothing stores are scary and I have no style.

 

[U2democrat]

shopping is way too boring.

 

[Techie2000]

Yes. I would rather poke at my eye with a spork. I especially hate trying on clothes in the fitting room.

 

[U2democrat]

especially with the mother there....................

 

[Techie2000]

especially with the mother there....................

Yes

 

[Techie2000]

I should be able to hire someone to go through that torture for me.

 

[U2democrat]

well, it's late, or early, however i should put it. i need to get some sleep, for sleep is something that i cherish and hold dear to me. so, i will be on tomorrow to see your bright and shiny...uh...avatars
