Isn't it? I came up with a buddy from SF just to ride for a week... and he ended up driving home alone :( If you see someone coding in the public library, it's probably me.

From my experience there is a correlation between how likely you are to use your phone during a meal with others, and how boring of a person you are. Have dinner with intelligent people that know how to hold a conversation and you'll f

A <noun> bum is simply someone who has realized they love something in life more than money, and is immune to the FUD of "economic security" - it's not hard to get by with a little intelligence and resourcefulness. Thes
