Every second you're not drinking Dr. Pepper or Pepsi in between beers is time wasted.

Like GK says get your sweet tooth on, you can always get cavities plugged when you get back!

BU SoCal weather.
BU trip to civilisation and resulting consumerist rampage.
BU new headphones, ZOMG

BU having the most satisfying sneaker experience ever. Apparently walking into a sick-hot sneaker boutique wearing discreetly hard to get kicks, knowing what half their stock is called and being able to ID the DJ Shadow that is playing gets a girl a billion cool points and a discount

. I never ever thought there'd be a hushed appreciative conversation about my shoes in such a place!
Of course, BU new sneakers.

Top shit Glenny :WIN:. You'll be pleased to know the above are SBs.

Bad news first - they didn't play Kill All the White Man or Liza and Louise, but they did play a wide variety of stuff off most of their albums. Nor did they play the Decline (and I would give my left nut to see that live).

NOFX banter is still hilarious. BOth bands play for an equal amount of time
