        My shit's all washed prior to sale, unless it says otherwise. I assumed that was the norm?

          The only time I ever sell bottoms is when I gamble and lose on a fart, and I'll be damned if I'm cleaning up that nasty shit.

          Think it, be it.

            Snowy definitely washes his stuff, but he doesn't check pockets. I got free cash!  😛

              Actual cash or those ridiculous Aussie "dollars"?

              C'mon, Down Under people- if you're going to invent pretend money, you should come up with a fun name for it, not swipe the name of real currency.

                Well, to be fair, we did the same thing.

                And theirs is plastic, which is rad.

                  As you may already know, I had to pick up and leave DC and move to San Diego. My wife left her job at National Geographic and decided to pursue other interests and began woking as a freelance Copywriter. She's created a website www.caitlinhannah.com and curated a Holiday Gift Guide that is full of great gift ideas at all different price points. Just some cool stuff to get you started if you find yourself looking for that perfect gift for someone and need a little inspiration. The gift guide can be found at her blog here: http://www.caitlinhannah.com/blog/

                    @Chris Our money's so strong I leave it in my pockets on principle. Thing is I still don't check the pockets after washing/prior to selling. I assume I'm down close to $100 over the years. A chance to share the play money world wide :).

                      Watching FED UP… Really wanna reduce my sugar intake... I don't eat fast food, don't drink soda, don't eat sweets (only cookies I eat are sugarfree, they have dinkle syrup as a sweetener), haven't had tea in a week (cause I add sugar, honey, and it contains caffeine) and have been replacing it by drinking tab water, don't pour sauces over my food, try to eat wholegrain/ dark bread, wholegrain rice, pasta,...

                      What other foods contain tons of sugar?.. DON'T SAY BEER CAUSE I'LL KILL YOU (I know it's full of it)...

                      Random announcement: this isn't the right thread... Bite me (I'm sugarfree).

                        Disclaimer: I don't know the context of Fed Up in regards to dietary implications. Just wanted to note that the carbohydrate in wheat (amylopectin-A) and many other grains has an extremely high glycemic index, higher than sucrose. So if you're trying to avoid the hormonal response sugar creates, you might want to broaden the foods you limit. $0.02

                          It's an additive or a natural component of (all) wheat products?.. By what I can tell, it shouldn't be in the stuff I regularly eat (rye bread, dinkel spaghetti; all organic of course cause I'm a GOD-DANG HIPPY)…

                            It's I forms of amylopectin are found in a lot of things: rices, tubers, grains, maize, etc. But whole wheat flour, for example, would have less of it by weight than refined wheat flour. Brown rice less than white rice, though I've heard it argued that brown rice has more harmful phytates relative to white rice.

                            One thing that I know doesn't have a whole lot of it, which I know you and all Belgians love? CHEESE! And vegetables and fruits. Fruits have fructose, which is bad for you unless it's buffered by soluble fiber, as you'd find in fruits. As a vegetarian, I bet cheese, nuts, and berries would be good things in good measure.

                            Think it, be it.

                              I basically survive on sourdesem bread, cheese, fruit, vegetables, whole grain pastas, water, beer, and wine…

                              And pizza... I'll always make an exception for pizza...  😃

                                Roommate is bringing a girl home in a few hours to spend the night.  I did some cleaning so things didn't look terrible.  I also drove out at 6am [up early, it happens] to buy a frame for this print my sister bought me 7 years ago.  It is now proudly displayed in our first floor bathroom:

                                    Ha, not exactly.  Roommate joked about framing that odd picture a few weeks ago.  Thought I'd give him something humorous to come home to since he's anxious about how things are gonna go with this new girl.

                                      Too bad you don't have time to pick up a book for the coffee table.  That would help make an impression on her.
