Anonymous (the internet ballers)by nolan, January 02
Came across something pretty disturbing/sick today on Reddit.
If you're in a bad mood or don't have a strong stomach for human fucking garbage I wouldn't recommend reading about it.
Anyways, Anonymous somehow came across a home video made by a high school football/baseball team laughing and reminiscing about gang raping, urinating on, and dragging outside a comatose young girl. The video is incredibly disturbing. They keep making references to how 'dead' she is now which I assume means her reputation because she's still alive. Apparently anon sent out some youtube video threatening to release the video and dox them all if they didn't turn themselves in for the crime. They didn't turn themselves in, so now it's on.
Interestingly, Anon had to host their evidence on this site I linked above. I know it's a sketchy .ru link but apparently every time they hosted it on a NA domain it got taken down for whatever reason. The link above should be safe.
Anyways, on to the real question.
How do you feel about anonymous and their vigilante internet justice? I must admit I am mostly fist-pumping about 95% of the stuff they do, but I think it's a bit scary if they get into a situation where they are misguided and are going after innocent parties. Someone playing devil's advocate brought up the point that what if these are just drunk/stoned high school jackasses making 'shock humor' about something that didn't actually happen. There's enough evidence outside of just the video to make you believe that this probably DID really happen, almost certainly, but it does make you wonder.
Like them or not, I do think everyone can agree Anonymous has had a very interesting impact on the internet as a whole.
Holy fuck I love this game so much you can't imagine :D
I'm mentally much stronger than last time, my job is very stressful as I work in sales and get 94% of people tell me no/fuck off so for the past 9 months I worked on keeping work ethic/positive attitude and learning even when getting shitloads of negatives and setbacks. Poker is really a breeze now and tilting/spewing was always my biggest issue.
Basically the reason why I had to quit in December last year was I played NL25 fulltime and had superthin margins with little savings and had to stop for 3 weeks cause of family issues and when I split up with my GF my expenses doubled overnight and with 0 buffer saved I just couldn't sustain the crazy NL25/NL50 fulltime grind I managed for a long period before.
But I had a blast playing/watching vids/trolling forums and learning again over Xmas despite flu/some gay throat infection. I'm gonna do it the right way now, just grind 1hr/day + at least 16hrs/weekend and read forums/listen to audio when travelling and move up to NL100 at least with 6months rent saved from my job and if I manage that I might give fulltime poker a shot once again because I just love the lifestyle/the community and you guys
I will juggle 4 tabling NL10-NL25 when I feel good and masstable NL5 when I am tired from work/hangover and try to get to $500 so I can start taking proper NL25 shts and not just 1table bumhunt.
Ty for all the advice over the last two weeks especially I I will have to stop learning properly now and just play but laid a decent foundation for a decent grind.
Here goes
If I have to drop down to 100 at let's say 17k? it might be over, unless I work extra hard unfortunately too drunk / stoned right now haven't slept yet so playing some 100 zoom to post some weird hands maybe.
Hope you all have (or having) a good night, lots of good moments and carry some of that joy onto the new year.
Love your friends and love your family, that's all that matters!
u know the saying boys n their toys.
From early age the boys have toy cars etc. So they grow up and keep playing with them, civil engineering, building shit. Bridges, computers, space ships etc. Whatever. Simple stuff.
Now girls are different. They play with dolls. Once grown up the best toy a girl has is a guy entertaining her. So she can have fun playing with him. It's upgrade from a doll.
Think about songs that girl sing. 'im not your toy' blah blah blah. A guy's song never has lyrics like that.
What im trying to say is that girls think about the guys as being a toy. An entertainment to their life. This is why they sing about it.
Guys dont even think about such concepts.
A girl needs constant entertainment. And when a guy stops entertaining her, long time boyfriend or husband it is really easy for another guy to come in and easily sweep her off the feet by being entertaining, and flirtatious.
Tease her, make a little fun of her. Excite her. Make her feel special, show some attention and a girl is helplessly intrested.
After all a human is just an animal with a little self awareness. Most of the time we dont know what we are doing and why. And we dont even notice it.
I can see this clearly happening to couples. The guy is pretty easily satisfied. U get a girlfriend. You got a job. Food and sex and roof is secured. Nothing else is needed. Just come home and sleep on the couch.
The girl on the other hand wants constant entertainment
Pretty brutal month, I put in an insane volume and was rewarded with >20 20+bi downswings, one big -50bi and one -75bi. At least I cashed some serious rakeback, and even though I lost 5 years of life, I became stronger after getting hit in the head so much. Kinda like JDS, hopefully. According to EV I was 100bi below at some point but that rungood in the end made it short of 50bi below EV (though I'm pretty sure I had bad card distribution, but everyone always is)
My leaderboard goal was a lock on the beggining of the month, then I had to fight for it, when it updates I will jump to 4th by a couple hundred $'s, hopefully the other guys won't play anymore (or lose if they do) Really happy with how much I've evolved and expect 2013 to be very nice. Hopefully to all of you too
