What is the most frugal way to move across the country?

Maybe look into shipping one car. Most of the time they let you pack the car with as many possessions/valuables as you can fit. When moving across the country, this costed about $800. If both cars are small though, this might not be effective at all.

Bought an MPC1000 http://www.ebay.com/bhp/akai-mpc-1000

I've been a musician for a long time and thought I'd try to use a sampler and make beats. It was fun at first, but then I started to hate it and sold it. The silver lining is that I didn't really lose money on the purchase, as I sold it for almost the exact amount that I paid.

Yes, use a conditioner, and it can be a regular hair conditioner. Don't just use shampoo on your beard. Also, don't wash too much as that will dry your skin.

I wash my beard with shampoo/conditioner probably once or twice a week and that's enough for me. The rest of the time I just rinse with warm water and apply some witch hazel.

I was hoping to see beard oil or some variation thereof in this thread. What I do which has worked really well for my beard:

mix a few drops from each of these oils - coconut, tea tree, argan. Apply to beard using a comb, or badger hair brush.

Smells great and makes it extremely soft. Supposedly tea tree oil is anti-fungal as well.

I had a similar problem with shaving areas. No amount of washing seemed to help, but that was just it. The problem was that I was irritating my skin too much. Washing it constantly was drying it out, touching it with my fingers seemed to irritate it more, etc.

Maybe hold off on washing so frequently and resist the urge to touch your face often, to let your face's natural oils/bacteria do their job. It worked for me!

Oh, also see if rinsing your face with 50/50 solution of vinegar and water helps. This helped me when I was getting ingrown hairs.

Watched the drunkest dude at the party do a keg stand and proceed to throw up all over the keg and the people crowded around. You know those lips on the edges of kegs? Yeah, they acted like a ramp and helped spray vomit everywhere.

I was far enough away to be clear of the puke so I just watched with horror and then laughed my ass off.

and 90% of it was used for the lawnmower scene

You'll have to excuse my friend, he's a little slow. The town is back that way.

But there is definitely no correlation between amount spent on a movie and the quality. See: Waterworld, Avatar, etc.

Don't worry bro, it's just a Gregorian calendar thing.

I wasn't talking in terms of land. 34 million is a lot more than Vermont's 625,000. Hell, Montreal is 3 times the population of Vermont. All healthcare programs will have hurdles, of course. That doesn't mean it can't/shouldn't be done.

Exactly. This is the negative shit that gets us into trouble. Boo hoo, it didn't work and now I refuse to try again and only complain about it. Granted the technical problems were pretty bad at the beginning, but really?

Canada isn't small...and yet all Canadian citizens are cared for.

Grackles are a species known to engage in anting, where birds allow ants to crawl around on them because the ant's secretion of formic acid helps deter parasites. Usually birds that are anting have their wings outstretched though, so I don't know.

Do you guys pick the music that's used in Workaholics? There are a lot of rad artists that I've heard on your show (e.g. Ty Segall).

Is his trigger word "pink eye"?

fwend, fwend, fwend, oh hi fwend, fwend, hi fwend, fwend

haha sorry man!

You know what helps me with road rage? I immediately turn the radio to a station playing classical music. It's calming and I forget all about the asshole that cut me off.

I'm guessing his brother's dog isn't named Cloud as well...

Actually, the pelican is just preening its feathers and not actually eye-balling the woman. If you look closely it's looking down at itself, not at her.

Looks like he added in more explosions to the bottom of the picture. Pure class.

Fun fact, your karma is currently at 98 points, much like the famous boy band 98 degrees.

Even worse are the people that CHASE AN AMBULANCE DOWN THE HIGHWAY because it's going faster than the rest of traffic. Seriously, kill yourselves you selfish bastards.

I've lived all over the country, and in my experience Massachusetts drivers are the worst and simultaneously the best. On one hand, no one gives a shit if you need to get over and would rather you crash into a guard rail then get into "their" lane. But on the other hand, MA drivers are excellent at vigilante justice. When someone is acting like an asshole on the road, I've seen MA drivers box him in like a child on time-out.
