"Comes with a Truvativ 68x107 BB for a limited time."

and then again in the product description
"For a limited time, we're including a free Turvativ 68x107 square taper BB. "

There is no BB to be found in this box. So effing annoyed right now.

That really sucks :(.

silver lining: I knew I should've put the omniums on the gold and the affinity on the blue anyway! now I have no excuse not to

I'd love to do that, but my job requires me to eat all sorts of **** and occasionally drink.

Today my boss gave me a Cannondale team wind jacket that doesn't fit him anymore. It's a season old, and is basically brand-new. I love free ****.

Today I realize how young I am in this class waiting for it to start. Two Asian chicks talking about how they're 23 and 24 and so old. Lol

I'm 27 and won't be in beginner foreign language classes until I'm 28 :p

Today I found out my room mate is a compulsive liar and a *****. He told his parents a bunch of lies and they threatened to sue my parents, and then the learned the truth about their loser son. He has this weird thing about standing up for himself, but thats hard to do if you're not standing on solid ground to begin with.

Wow. Sorry to hear that.

Ouch man, that sucks. Definitely give them a call.

haha don't be sorry, they can't do anything. He took pictures of my girly looking shampoo and nail polish remover (wink wink) and said my girlfriend was living here or something like that.

Disclaimer, I don't paint my nails, I use it to clean sticky stuff.

yummygooey 01-10-12 04:44 PM

Lol what did he have to gain from that?

nuhtowel 01-10-12 05:04 PM

He has just been a really big dick recently, and since I don't put up with his nonsense he is floundering and making up lies, except everyone involved knows he's lying. I'm really amazed by my patience in this situation though, I think most people would have beat the crap out of him by now.

The last time I had a non-conjugal roomate was 40 years ago. The first thing I did when I got my first serious full-time job was get my own apartment. It was tiny, but it was mine.

Is this an attempt to boot caffeine, alcohol and meet in the long term?

seau grateau 01-10-12 07:35 PM

Not necessarily.

hairnet 01-10-12 08:00 PM

What is your intent?

"detoxing fast"

hairnet 01-10-12 08:22 PM

Only to revert to smoking, drinking, eating meat afterward? I am curious if he is going for a long term change or some BS 1 week fast that does nothing

yummygooey 01-10-12 08:41 PM

Just boot smoking for good dude.

And nothing wrong with coffee. It's good for you.

seau grateau 01-10-12 08:45 PM

It could be a long term change. I do hope to kick some of these habits, but calling this an attempt to quit attaches connotations of failure if I don't. I believe that when the body is balanced, healthy, and not being fed BS, it stops wanting BS.

edit- And coffee is definitely not good for you.

yummygooey 01-10-12 08:56 PM

Beer and meat are. ;)

Dannihilator 01-10-12 08:56 PM

Today had a good ride on the dirt jumper.

homebrewk 01-10-12 08:58 PM

Today I wore a watch with a Crocodile band.

yummygooey 01-10-12 09:00 PM

Today I had an awesome pastrami sammich and some good ol' street food.

This whole NYC trip has basically been eating.

I'm going to go bonk now.

xavier853 01-10-12 09:27 PM

Skipped a class to ride with a buddy because it was 50 out. Bad idea, but it was still fun. ahah

Spoonrobot 01-10-12 09:28 PM

Made some tools tonight. A very ugly but functional pin spanner and hook spanner for the cup/cone Sugino 75 bottom bracket I just got. Also made some flip tabs for my new MKS stream pedals.

nuhtowel 01-10-12 10:45 PM

I complain about my room mate a lot, but tonight, he had a **** in, as in, he sat in the bathroom for an hour and a half in protest hahahaha
