@4c:
Today there was a massive worldwide protest against the maker of GMOs, Agent Orange, DDT, the atomic bomb (in-part), PCB’s, Roundup, and much, much more… M0n$ant0
US food regulation is far behind that of the EU and most other nations. In fact, the head of the US FDA is also the head lobbyist for M0n$ant0. Little conflict of interest there?
This explains a bit of the history: http://gmo-awareness.com/2011/05/12/monsanto-dirty-dozen/
There's basically a revolving door between the giants of industry and the regulatory agencies that are tasked with overseeing them. This isn't unique to the FDA unfortunately, we also see this in banking and finance, and we are seeing it with the FCC's chairman.

Decided not to buy new jeans… Why would I?.. I'll just buy 'm 2ndhand when it's colder again in October/ November for 100 € less... For now I'm just gonna save money and spend the rest on beer.
I am thoroughly looking forward to December and January... I'm being refunded so much money (taxes, electricity and gas,...). In the meantime: keep calm and protect the realm.

Thought this was interesting, in terms of how an error can get inexplicably grandfathered in:

Was I the last person to see the nickname for the 92? Sexual chocolate. Haha

My dads kept bees as a hobby for the last forty years. Now because of the cancer he has to give it up as can't face the 100 mile round trip and the extracting (getting the honey out of the frames) has to be done in August. It's alright though, turns out that he has enough honey in the garage stored to last him at least another five years…... Considering he goes through about two to three jars a week that's pretty fucking good going!

Woke up with an urge to listen to Queen and Dire Straits…...I might be having a mid life crisis.

"Might," he says…

And then I listened to Slayer all morning and now I feel better.
-
Speaking of that, have you seen the Raining Blood banjo thing going around?
-
That is exactly what set me off on todays Slayer rampage, just walked to the Post Office and back listening to Raining Blood, Seasons In The Abyss, Hell Awaits and South Of Heaven.

Summer3rhays, at Selfedge they don't use the standard IHSH-xx here is Kiya's explanation :
" Because we feel that giving a name to a shirt is more personal than a serial number, we do the same thing with all the brands we sell."
Sexual chocolate is certainly not subtle …
Cheers

I don't think in terms of the model number either, that's just not how my head works (or doesn't).
-
I like the numbers. The numbers are just names anyway, but not nearly as clever as Sexual Chocolate. Will SH-100 be Mega Solid Easter Bunny of 80% Cacao? I just thought the name was funny. I noticed that they didn't put the numbers, but I think very few products get such a classic moniker. I'm used to seeing Sawtooth western, denim workshirt, winter flannel.

No idea where else to put this, but I figured everyone in the forum would find it hilarious:
