Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - the 'get better msngr' thread

So, our buddy msngr had surgery on his hand today. He's all drugged up. Lucky him.

Seeing as how he will be bored, drugged, and a bit loopy for a spell, i thought we could offer him both our best wishes and our favorite online (low-thumb-usage) time wasters.

as in, look, online sudoku!

get better msngr!

ok, here's one http://jwz.livejournal.com/590382.html
it's a collection of links to movies that can best be described as 'wtf is WRONG with japanese culture!?'

some of the stuff is VERY nsfw, and may also make you barf.

get better brean, and save some drugs for when you're better!

Play Home Run and get better soon.

just talked to him... msngr's home and the surgery went fine. he's groggy and drugged, as expected.

he has my sympathies. i just got my staples out today.

...and I got my pins out last night. Hand surgery (and anesthesia) SUCKS.

The road to recovery is fortunately paved with **** weather... if you gotta get hurt, now's the time to do it.

homestarrunner! the cool shades episode always makes me laugh. it'll mix great with percoset/codiene.

Get better man. If you need any vicodin or 'gansett, they're over at my place.

Quit giving away all my Narry's damn you!!!! Well Thumbs can have some I guess.

get better, man. and remember - you can still use your other hand to masterbate. that should kill some time.

www.thatvideosite.com is pretty cool.

wow, thanks everyone.

who knew you could waste so much time on this internet thingy?

for some reason i'm really good at the drunk walking one and the one where you hit the girl with your bike.

the doc is really concerned about my pain level and has prescribed lots of goodies, so i should be fine.

thanks again.

I can't imagine playing halo2 without thumbs... but I'm sure your gonna find a way to do it.

Heal up, Brean! You can't offer drinks to recovering alcoholics if you're cooped up in bed.

Heal up Msngr! Nothing helps healing faster than porn and pie.

hurry up and heal - track season is a'coming

if you want, construct high school lesson plans (covering the crucible by arthur miller) for me. Next weeke would be good. I'll be watching my inbox.

I can't imagine playing halo2 without thumbs... but I'm sure your gonna find a way to do it.
the trick is to cup the thumbstick with your palm and let your index finger go OVER the left trigger. not the best, but it's functional.

thanks again, folks.

Get well Msngr. Which hand did you have surgery on? And is that your writing/eating/everything hand?
After my surgery the number 2 question asked after "Dude do you drink enough milk?" was "Can you jerk off?" Best answer to said question ever can be found in Murderball which you should definitely watch while recovering since it makes your injury look like a papercut compared to those quad-rugby players.

Jeff - aren't you still supposed to be recoverying???
=]

get better quick so you can get worse soon!
missed you at the roller races last night.

yeah, mine was nowhere near as sexy as your's, stickerguy.

i broke the socket where the thumb attaches to the wrist (left hand, thank goodness) so that the tendon pulled the thumb out, and there's nothing for it to go back into.

takes a damn long time to type.

been recouping in an italian part of town, so plenty of good cheese and other food.

i'll give the tossing a try soon. i'll keep you updated. now, who can i fantasize about . . .?


[165], sorry, knee deep in mamet right now. but i plan on hitting the library in the morning.

How are we supposed to know he's better?



Between this thread and the Portfolio thread, there's so much material to go through, no one should be bored. Here's another contribution: dopewars (http://www.treadon.us/). For way too long, I wasted my time playing this. If you need any tips, let me know.

Oh, and how does everyone feel about a "get well Msngr" party? Maybe Friday? At my place? I can give away rithem's beer. It was for msngr in the first place.

i can't figure out what's going on in that game. if only i could pull moves like that in real life, i'd really be... something.

i got one for you.

http://www.4chan.org/

those of you that don't know, be warned. 4chan is full of nerds, geeks, dorks, pedos, *******s, trolls, and otherwise sick content. other than that, i get my lols from 4chan. i'm a big geek and i love that ****. so. best of luck. and don't go there while at work.

there's a guide out there somewhere. This isn't the one I originally found (http://jayisgames.com/archives/2005/02/nanaca_crash.php) , but it might help. The key is to use up your aerial crashes kind of early, and get the Specials. When you get a "special", you just have to click the mouse immediately, then all the characters turn into ninjas or something, and blast you into hyperspace. Sort of.

yes! the cheese advice finally got through. you are going to have bones of steel in no time.

Get well soon. And for the non-squeamish inner rubber-neckers in us, http://www.ogrish.com.

will the bones of steel help me with the tossing?

You only need one bone of steel for that, my friend. Try not to break the other thumb!

7459! HAHAH I love this game.

the chuck norris facts page has kept me laughing for a good half hour.

will the bones of steel help me with the tossing?
what exactly are you tossing?? ... maybe i don't want to know. does this involve your roommate?

*kisses*
Thanks for hanging last week. Hope you're better soon.
