In human social interaction he’s a gem. Good baller too (which is how I judge most people)This may or may not be an original thought of my own.

NY is amazing, what a crazy place. I fit in. The food also blows anywhere I've been out of the water, Jesus.
Originally posted by Wombatman View PostAnyone tried salvia? Picked it up in a head shop a few year ago for a kick with friends. Holy fucking shit is all I can say. Holy fucking shit. A three minute super mind fuck.
I laugh a lot, you probably remember that from my home games. But anyway, people usually know I'm in a building even if I'm on a different floor. Well Salvia makes you laugh waaaay more than you normally do. I was at an outdoor party on a mountain for a weekend in Sligo - sleeping by bonfires, nothing better.
Of course there we were trying out this head shop stuff at about 5am, all above board at the time. We were smoking it through a Bulmers can, very classy affair. I was working in a hotel at the time with my suit crammed into a bag, had a shift working at a wedding in a few hours.
So anyway I took a big breath of it in, held as long as I could, feeling absolutely nothing. On the breath out it hit me like a truck, a sledgehammer. I fell onto my back and from that breath onward I did not stop laughing for 3-5 minutes straight, one big fucking laugh during which I could not breathe at all, it sounded ridiculous. Normal people on it are bad enough, I'm a living joke on it. If I wasn't high as fuck I assume I'd think I was gonna die.
It started off with me hearing this song from my memory, clearer than any song I'd ever heard before or since. The clarity and emotion was insane.
Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
Next up this guy pops into existence beside me:
He starts talking to me, telling me crazy shit and I'm losing it even more, I can only reply with my thoughts with all the laughter which he understands with no problem.
Two friends come over to me on each side, one of them has transformed into a mountain in my mind, the other transformed into a boot of immense proportions to rival it and they start talking to me. This is hilarious to me, I nearly pass out from lack of air and laughter. I used to remember the conversations and they were just messed up. For the best I never do anything stronger. Felt fucking fantastic though, the music was amazing, I can hear it now, crystal clear. My mother collected me in a ball that morning, my suit was in bits, she sorted it all out like a champ while I could barely get a word out. There was much negotiations after this. Made the job though.

The ruling originally went against me but I was pretty sure under the rules that I was correct to protest.
After some discussion between floor(HJ included I think) and a look at the video, the ruling went in my favour.
I made the error so I couldn't have been too annoyed but I know I was fuming at the time.
It is the gap between a good and bad dealer, someone who knows the rules, can articulate them in an acceptable manner to everyone involved and move the game along.

Fair enough.

Soft
Is futz only real place open?
The busiest I'd assume but dont know, sporting emporium still run cash and is soft as fuck Friday and Saturday nights with lads coming in after a skinful to donate. JPs place in Tallaght gets a decent cash game on Friday and usually a table on Saturday
Presume it’s nothing like the glory days of drunk lads coming in spewing or does that still go on?
Sporting Emporium but not on the same scale
Same faces still knocking about? Grimmer than 12 years ago?

Shoutout re: jbravado. To whoever passed on my number to him thank you we made contact. However the news is not good. We arranged to meet at 10.30am this morning. He didn't make he txt me at 1 to say he'd just woken up and was in ribbons and couldn't make it. We rescheduled for 5.30 and I fucked off and had a holistic massage and floating session. Mad shit . Highly recommend it. Best 80 quid I ever spent in my life. Anyway jb was a no show. He wants to go down to DZB and have a look but in incapable of getting himself down there anytime soon. I know he has friends / mates on here who care about him so if any of you are out there and can call round to him and gently encourage to come down I'm going down on Monday myself for a few days nourishment and healing and will be in Dublin from 8am - 9am. I'd love him to come down and give himself a chance of getting out of the hell hes got himself into. I don't fall into either mate or friend category, I know jb from the poker scene but he doesn't know me from Adam. Thanks in advance.

I thought this was a good article on his career, his message has largely remained the same since his lectures began & Maps of Meaning book published but as he acknowledges himself he's a provocateur so the delivery and the topics have evolved.

In other news, I have a new found love for Clermont fans, unbelievable bunch, great night.

I saw that earlier, Shapiro was embarrassing.
TBH I was little surprised at how bad he was, always thought of him as a sycophantic conservative getting on Fox & friends among others but he seemed relatively fine on Joe Rogan tbf.
The cringe of Shaprio accusing Neill of using his higher profile to benefit Neill was hilarious stuff.

He also highlights how "debate me" has ruined modern politics, people like him, Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson etc pick a point, find a tangent and run with it to win the argument and fuck right or wrongLast edited by Guest; 11-05-19, 16:02.

I will say for Rogan that he seems to have seriously softened his views on the trans issue since having Eddie Izzard on, who gave a human angle to it without pushing anything and saying "I don't know" when pushed by Rogan on sports issues etc

What's the juice for a wedding this year for one person? 150?Last edited by Denny Crane; 11-05-19, 16:13.

I think one guest may expected to give more proportionally than two people in a couple, 150 by a singleton is the equivalent of around 250 by a couple?
Maybe I'm wrong there but always how I thought about it...
We have a black tie wedding in a couple of months in a nice place, easily could have not agreed to attend but I suspect based on venue etc we'll likely give more than normal.
