Top Ten Sal Experiences since June 2005: 10: Realizing that despite whatever Nick Hornby says, top ten lists begin with "10" and end with "1". Just ask David Letterman. 9: That it is one thing to fly the Che Guevara flag in order to look cool, and it is entirely another to know all about that guy's life and what he did...and THEN get behind him. I am Manifested Communist. 8: That colloquial names to any of various small insects in the order Diptera and specifically within the suborder Nematocera are absolutely fucking lame, total annoyances and all deserve to be exterminated. Immediately and without remorse. Thank You. 7: That the natural, off-handed, non-authoritive and total acceptance atmosphere of "off the emmis" is what makes it work, and why so many come here. 6: That in general, sporting events suck, are rigged and full of a bunch of steroids infested assholes. ALL of them. ESPECIALLY baseball. It sucks, completely and totally. Stop watching, because if you do you are a sucker. 5: Anything on television besides the Simpsons is complete crap, and that if you pay more than $0 dollars and 0 cents for your TV every month, you are getting ripped off. I have NO television today, thank you. 4: No one cares what you have to say if you are stupid. 3: Led Zeppelin is STILL the lamest band of all time. 2: The Beatles are STILL cooler and tougher than the Rolling Stones. and 1: Actively persuing an actual, real, recognized and accredited education is the most important thing that I have ever done. Glass ceiling shattered, bitches!!!! Thank You. More top tens to come, yo! -Sal

We claim it's out of laziness, but have you ever known a bad parent and thought to yourself, "I'll do the exact opposite of what they do, therefore rendering me good!"? Also, I have a girl crush Nick Hornby, Led Zeppelin has always sucked. HARD. I'm gonna marry Homer someday and yeah gnat's a cunt. *Edit to add an "n" to...forget it.

"Also, I have a girl crush Nick Hornby"
I have a girl crush on Nick Hornby, too.
But top ten lists STILL should go from 10 to 1.
BTW...
I need instructions on how to:
1. Get an avatar.
2. Post responses with boxed quotes from other people.
Please, someone leave specific, thorough instructions for me.
Thank you,
-Sal

9: That it is one thing to fly the Che Guevara flag in order to look cool, and it is entirely another to know all about that guy's life and what he did...and THEN get behind him. Indeed! The irony of Che Guevara's iconographic status in a capitalist society is not lost on me. 7: That the natural, off-handed, non-authoritive and total acceptance atmosphere of "off the emmis" is what makes it work, and why so many come here. Here, here. I raise my glass. 3: Led Zeppelin is STILL the lamest band of all time. Wellllll... I still have a soft spot for cock rock, esp. since I was just a budding youth when it came to me. LOL. and 1: Actively persuing an actual, real, recognized and accredited education is the most important thing that I have ever done. Glass ceiling shattered, bitches!!!! (blushes) me too! Well, I do LOVE that man who sleeps next to me...

Post responses with boxed quotes from other people. Please, someone leave specific, thorough instructions for me. Thank you, -Sal 1. The way I did the avatar was I set up an account on Photobucket.com, it's free, and it will let you upload pictures from your computer to the site and then it will give you the tags and just copy/paste the url (web address) and then edit your profile and paste it in there. 2. If you hit the "quote" button instead of the "reply" button you'll get the cute little box, and then if you want you can delete the parts of the quote you don't want.

But, I will try and help out of the kindness of my heart. If you find a cool picture on any random website somewhere, you can right click and "save as my picture" and then you can do the step I already told you. As far as a place to find cool pics...I got nuthin. The one I have is a drawing of mine that I uploaded. One of these webjunkies around here might have a better idea.
