Sythen: well
Sythen: most
The_Ugster: I cooked up some bacon yesterday, then toasted some bread in the leftover bacon fat, had myself one badass BLT
UberArchangel_: that sounds real healthy
The_Ugster: Oh it was delicious, I can’t gain weight if I try, so I can just eat whatever the hell I want
UberArchangel_: just cause u can’t gain weight doesnt mean u can’t clog ur arterys just an fyi
The_Ugster: Maybe, but I’d rather die with a smile on my face and a stomach full of good tasting food than nibbling on pasty white tofu and diet soda
UberArchangel_: i had a friend that thought that and he ate nothing but McDonalds for 3-years and he has heart problems like an 8yr old man
The_Ugster: I rarely go to McDs, there’s a difference between eating unhealthily and filling your body with preservatives and pesticides
UberArchangel_: lol
The_Ugster: I practically watched the bacon I eat get slaughtered and cut, so I know its fresh
mustang03282: just because you cant gain weight dosnt mean you cant clog your aretries
The_Ugster: Uber just said the exact same thing, only with different misspellings

Friend: Is clementine mckee a friend of yours?
Me: I have never heard of anyone by that name, let alone carry acquaintance with them. Why?
Friend: Oh I dunno it sounded fromiliar for some reason
Me: Why? What made that, of all things pop into your head?
Friend: I thought one of those girls you knew from school was named clementine for some reason
Me: No, I don't know any Clementines. Except those mini-oranges.
(snip)
Friend: Lol as weird as it is I think that's why I associated the person to you! You used to always eat oranges in school hahaha
Me: Heh. Are you positive that's a real name? It sounds like the kind of thing you'd hear in a stoner movie or name your kid if you're Gwenyth Paltrow.

WatchProblems I Noticed While Watching Video:
The timestamps on the messages don’t make sense across the three phones.
Jon appears to have filed “Google“‘s number under ‘work.’

Brando's Spy Ear Power Strip →
You know, sometimes I really wonder who comes up with these ideas and whether consumers actually believe that something as ludicrous as a “spy ear” power strip is worth more than a second of their time.
Spam Reimagined →
The sad part is that I had a similar idea earlier this morning before I saw any of these. Back to the drawing board for me (pardon the pun).

Maybe you’ve seen this before, maybe you haven’t. Either way, it’s still awesome.

Ferris Bueller/Fight Club Theory →
Everyone secretly hopes they could have just one day similar to the one Ferris Bueller had in his namesake movie. Thanks to ax0n, I’m having second thoughts about that.
