Fuck off already

Have you not got anything better to do with your time other than to message all of the women you have contact with, harass those who want to try and work things out together, and just be a general meathead on a daily basis? My god, when does the school year start again 'murika?

It really doesn't take as much time as you'd think Coles, Also I'm a meatball so I can't stop being a meathead srysry, I don't really harass people very much unless ofc you mean alay in the IoB skype but that's only because she removed me and tries to tell me how I should act in real life when I know how to handle myself, and even then it's just a couple comments and then I go back to what I was doing, you seem a little upset over nothing. :)

Sorry to bump, but I have some more pictures that people might like to see:

I caught this baby flathead catfish 4-5 days ago, while searching for bait underneath rocks. I would have loved to kept him, but I don't have a tank big enough for him. My molly/guppy hybrids are taking up my biggest tank currently.
Image
My son and I caught a little bluegill Tuesday night, he was excited :lol:
Image
Earlier that day playing with my son and some little girl joined us :D
Image
I'll edit this post with more pictures later. I caught 9 small bluegill last night, my wife caught 2, and my son was too busy playing to catch any. I also caught a Candy Darter, it's endangered and only in this river/drainage. Here's a picture (not my pic tho)
Image
Not to be confused with rainbow darters, which are probably the most common fish in the US that nobody knows of. I caught a bunch of them Tuesday (again the pic here is not mine, i'll upload mine later).
Image

Native fish > Tropical fish :twisted:
Edit: I'm not able to find my picture of the Candy Darter that I took a few days ago, this really sucks :? maybe my wife erased it on accident. Oh, I just remembered, I did not have my camera that day! First time in forever that I left it at home! Next time I'm at the river I'll take some more pics of darters, logperch, and w/e else. My mission is to catch a greenside (pic'd below) darter for my son's fishing tank. They mainly eat snails.

Nice thread.

Not much of a summer here either and I have been writing over 150 pages of scientific papers by now to finally finish university...
Will add another 100ish pages to that during the next 2 months and then hopefully not give much of a fuck anymore for the rest of the year :P

You study philosophy and despise empiricism, yet you wrote "scientific" papers. Sounds legit.

Yes, why wouldn't I? You got it wrong what I study by the way, but if you learn your history then you would know that philosophy is the mother of all other sciences that exist today. I also never said I despise empiricism, what a nonsense.

Please do not shit up this thread with your usual garbage Sarchi, thanks. The OP deserves better.

A friend of mine on IRC is also writing papers for a university. Soon to be married... Doesn't have the time for IRC friends anymore :( I guess I became the same way when I was younger, when I worked at my old job, dated my wife, and helped out GED students at my local library. I'm rambling on... :roll:
