best day of your life

[Scurvy]

My best days are the ones every two months or so that I have my apartment completely to myself for a day or weekend. I can drink and smoke and nap and jerk off and play video games as much as humanly possible with no nagging or interruption. I feel like I'm briefly living the dream of the dude in office space.

also, silly me for assuming this would be a feel-good thread.

I know this guy from TV years ago when i used to have a television. Although you may think he is for losers, another more accurate viewpoint is that citizens are over taxed and to do anything they can to get government grants is merely trying to get the money back to the people, otherwise it goes reallocated pork spending or to bombing civilians.

Thats why Ron Paul who is against ear marks ironically still gets all the ear marks he can for his district. Its not because hes a hypocrite, its because as long as the system is the way it is he has to try and get back as much taxation as he can for his constituency.

It would be very foolish to think grabbing government grants for small businesses & individuals is anything but good & right in an over-taxed over-monetized country. Its the next-best thing before lowering the taxes and stopping the spending -- or else it gets reallocated to something worse.

If you are a European - the guy which PH pictured wrote a book and did infomercials with an extra-flamboyant personality about how to get government grants for every different kind of thing, most of which are never claimed by the people.

If you do not know this, The US gives out far more grants and welfare than Europe does even though Europe has much higher taxes. If you know how much more the US pays for; you would be extremely mad about you getting less than us even though you have higher taxes.

Example: You can get thousands & thousands of dollars here to start a business if you jump through bureaucracy, whereas for example in Sweden you can only get a few thousand krones worth a few hundred dollars, despite far higher taxes.

in short: Its a great myth that higher taxation in Europe gives more government benefits.

Look at Norway, a major oil producer and exporter still charging its citizens ultra high prices for fuel.

Compare poverty rates of Sweden with America for me, Tone.

Im sure the best day of my life is still ahead of me. I go through Life very demoralized and ill. If you like baseball, think of me as akin to one of those players who keeps going on the extended DL over and over and is then dropped to the minors for recovery but then goes on the extended DL again. And during all this, hes was always working 3 times as hard as Berry Bonds or Tony Gwynn ever was.

God you guys can really shit up a good thread concept sometimes. Paradise, you've always sucked. I thought someday you might stop but sadly you still suck. Sucky piece of shit. Paradise.

The best day of my life was was probably during the summer I was 13. I used to be kind of scared of rollercoasters. I didn't take to them very well like some little kids. For some reason I always figured I'd be on the car that went too fast and flew off the track, so I mostly avoided them. Until one day on our way back from an RV trip to the Grand Canyon with my racist grandfather, summa, and a few cousins (there were like 8 of us in a 35 footer), we stopped in Vegas at the Circus Circus RV lot. Since we got into Vegas at like 2 p.m. and my grandparents wanted to gamble away from the kids (they had, after all, been couped up with us for a week and a half), they gave us enough money to buy all day bracelets at the theme park dome thingy that connects to Circus Circus.

The first thing all of my cousins wanted to do was ride the big rollercoaster that flies around the whole dome. But I was intimidated so I convinced one of my cousins to come play laser tag with summa and myself. After a couple of rounds of tag he started to get antsy. I didn't want to look chicken so we left summa behind (he doesn't do thrill rides) and got in line. I was incredibly nervous.

Two loops and two corkscrews later I was exhilarated. I must have rode that thing 15 times. My cousin and I went on all the upside down rides afterward and I learned to love theme park rides. We got the most of our day-long passes. It was a day filled with log flumes and laser tag. Since then I've jumped on every rollercoaster I could. It really opened my eyes to how awesome the unique adrenaline rush of riding coasters can be. We didn't end up leaving until they closed at 9 p.m. and then we spent the night walking the strip. I got a cherry icee from somewhere and summa and I sat on the steps to Caesar's Palace drinking icees and watching the traffic. I'd been to Vegas many times to visit my other grandparents, but no experience was as memorable as that particular time.
