[Hazmat]

Yes, you can.
It hurts, but it's possible.

[Hazmat]

Yes, you can. It hurts, but it's possible.
Fair enough. (http://www.straightdope.com/art/1987/870710.gif)

I also learned 2day that the people on this forum are friendly towards me as i am to them. :p

How shutter speed effects a picture more than I thought. Like the final exposure, motion blur or a freeze frame. Also, how light meters work and I finally underststand the 18% grey card concept...

[dudewithasock]

I learned that you need to be 21 to get into casinos. :(

Yup. You also need to be 21 to get into slot machine "arcades" even if no money excanges hands. Casinos are a rip anyway. They're not a lot of fun unless you're winning. It's depressing to go through $100 in 10 minutes and get nothing back....

Not here you don't. Once you turn 18, you can go to casinos and whatnot. :p

Well I wouldn't have played the money-milking slot machines or anything...just some good ol' Hold 'Em or maybe some Black Jack. Me and some family were practicing some various betting strategies and whatnot and were ready to play, and I'm always really conservative with my chips, even when there's no money on the line.

I've been learning that trying to keep a band together dosn't really work when the bassist wants to get rid of the drummer you want despratley to keep but you don't want to piss off the bassist because you're in love with him. But you don't want to piss off the drummer cuz he's one of your best friends.
And the desicions are ultimatley yours. Band leading sucks.

Just dont let anything happen until after the show at the Empyrean. :)

[phlegm]

I believe 18 is the limit here too, but only if they don't serve alcohol. Many casinos serve alcohol so they don't bother to allow anyone under 21--it's not like they're losing money over it. :rolleyes:

A hey?

You know David, the drummer from The Booze Fighters? He might be playing drums for us that night.
Cuz I've pretty much given up.

That you can't sneeze with your eyes open.

Yes actually you can. I saw it on TV. Adam on Mythbusters did.


He was holding his eyelids open though.

[U-Turn]

I learned that the $1 movie theater now charges $2. :(

[MuniAddict]

That Thai women are freakin' HOT!:D:cool::p

[Borgschulze]

I learned that "BMX Lifestyle" is all about buying into stupid trends, like having bars that are inconveniently wide for barspins, and not having brakes.

Same goes for MTB... the in thing is to have short cut riser bars, and white parts... personally I have super wide 740mm bars, in fake Carbon Fiber finish with very little rise. Low travel forks are also in, and I have pretty large 150mm travel opposed to the 80-100mm travel most people seem to have.

[Ducttape]

technically I now learned this yesterday, but I learned my hair looks better parted to one side than down the middle at this length.....
