ewsieg Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Figured this is an appropriate thread for this, I passed my CISSP test today. Last time I really had to study for something my kids were so young, you'd think it would've been easier this time. Just glad it's behind me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smr-nj Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I also don’t know what that is, but congratulations, for sure , because I totally agree that having to pass tests is harder the older you get…. That “taking tests” mode in our heads just kinda takes off for planets unknown somewhere after your 40’s. It’s just harder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted June 14, 2022 Author Share Posted June 14, 2022 Putting the American flag on to soda cans and other items is a violation of flag code. I've always hated patriotism for profit, even as a little kid, I thought it was disrespectful and cheesy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memorable rolls Knowing that most of that scene was improvised makes it even better.

Deleterious Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Nobody could have ever seen this coming. I need every one of you to sit down and prepare for the most shocking news you've ever heard in your life. Charlie Sheen's 18-year-old daughter is on OnlyFans.

oblong Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I was thinking about the OF model last night. We watched an episode on TNT of a new series called Rich and Shameless. It was about the guy, Joe Francis, who started Girls Gone Wild. Crazy stories. Drunk 18 year old girls write their name on a release for a 5 second boob flash or trip on "the bus for more explicit action" and their lives changed forever. In one instance an irate father got a lawyer and Joe Francis told his people to make sure she's in the next video and to put her on the cover of it. He's now hiding out in Mexico to avoid charges.

Biff Mayhem Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 45 minutes ago, Deleterious said: Ah summer, the time of obnoxiously loud motorcycles. I had one Harley with obnoxiously loud pipes. The thing is with those is they don't have to be obnoxiously loud if a rider knows how to control the throttle. I often scoff at the "loud pipes save lives" slogan but it is true in some cases as it does allow awareness of a biker. However the counter to this is a LED headlight and driving with the brights on during the day. That actually creates more awareness. Sure it can be visibly annoying temporarily but it is far less annoying than the loud pipes and the first step in defensive riding is visibility. In summary, yes people who get a thrill out of driving down the road or sitting at an intersection repeatedly "expressing their manhood" are douchebags. Their brothers in arms are the "rolling coal" and truck nuts contingency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yum I love the Strawberry and Coconut. Maybe I'll try Peach or Watermelon one day, but when I can find them, it's always Strawberry first. And around here these have been very difficult to find lately. Finally found some at ALDI, and there is no markdown on this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted July 3, 2022 Author Share Posted July 3, 2022 I watched Dazed And Confused yesterday. No, it's not a documentary about the Tigers front office. Anyway, I hadn't seen it in a long time. This horrifying thought came to me. That if they made a new Dazed And Confused with the same time period in flashback, it would be about the last day of school in 2005. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
