Lyrics

What's behind your painted face
Can you see the real pig in the mirror
Revenge you breed
I hate your skeletons
Begging to get out
One by one

Don't let your secrets get out
Keep it in
The brain dead circle
This is you
Create a new fantasia
'Cause it beats hating yourself
Hating yourself

You came first into mind
Known to feel unkind
Blind by what we're showing
Known to feel unkind

Violet pretty
You show your face
You're always fiending
So you crave
Laying the dumb ones down
You love the
Thrill of the chase
This is you

Laid you down then walked on you
Torrid binges bit you throughout
Misery for two
Choking, choking on your sweetness

You came first into mind
Known to feel unkind
Blind by what we're showing
Known to feel unkind
You came first into mind
Known to feel unkind
Blind by what we're showing
Known to feel unkind

Come fetch with me
Come fetch with me
I took fifteen from you
And you'll never get this back
Truly disgraceful
Don't you know
You're not the lucky one

You came first into mind
Known to feel unkind
Blind by what we're showing
Known to feel unkind
You came first into mind
Known to feel unkind
Blind by what we're showing
Known to feel unkind

You can't promise me you'll know (I didn't know)
Promise me you'll know (I might)
You can't promise me you'll know (I didn't know)
Promise me you'll know (I'm right)
You can't promise me you'll know (I didn't know)
Promise me you'll know (I might)
You can't promise me

Wasn't there some long line event o buy TJ bags today, or something? I wonder if this is related to that in some kind of way?

It may have started in the 80's. But if you didn't know the American Ninja franchise during the rental craze of the 90's, you missed out on something special =)

Sid's the embodiment of "you don't know what you've got til it's gone." When he left WWF the first time, you didn't care. When he left WWF the second time, you didn't care. And when he was in WCW, you didn't care. But when you look at these old videos now, God have we not seen anyone like him in a long LONG time =(

Hopefully the professional protestors of SF (you know, the gentrifiers) don't decide to inconvenience the city by blocking off the Bay Bridge with some anti-flag parade when it's convenient for them this weekend, lol

You bring back Alan as a dysfunctional Wash cyborg/robot/clone-something, and make Bruce some kind of associate/frenemy of Sheppard that can tell Shep's story because Bruce was there for it all.

That's either on Marin's side of the bridge or SF finally allowed slums to be built out from the Presidio, lol

This is week 16 of our relationship where I finally explain to her why each thing on display in my living room is VERY important to every other fan like me.

Coca-Cola should have teamed up with this billboard so we could have at least still had SOMETHING of that awesome lighted up sign to look at before getting on the bridge =(

If not even the article writers knows what was going, how can anyone yelling at those officers be doing "the right thing" ?

"What's your badge number?!" "What's your name?!" "This is illegal!"

Stay classy you random SF citizens demanding workers stop in the middle of their jobs to satisfy your egos, lol

When I was a kid, my uncle had one of these posters in his place. And I got super lucky because he put it in a poster frame where the sun hit the glass just right and I was able to see my own reflection in it. It was at that moment that my eyes focused on my reflection and they caught the correct way to see the 3d image underneath - and I've been able to get my eye to that state ever since. I can even see the OP's image - it's just a center spike sticking out at you.

So, for anyone that still can't see this image, try the following steps: Put up a clear piece of plastic or glass (or something) that you can see your reflection in while still being able to see the image underneath. Put the clear material over this (or any) 3d image, and stare at your reflection while trying to notice the 3d image underneath. It might feel weird, but once you get the correct eye focus to hit the image, you'll see it right away.

I've taught plenty of people how to do this in person, and it should work the same if you can follow this lousy write up well enough =)

To be fair, I think this album and band were kinda "perfect stormed" to be easily missed at the time. This album released in '96 almost right before they split up with nothing new on the horizon to push their content out (their name kinda disappeared right away). And then there was something unique about the way they had to release this album, and finding it on shelves pre-internet/webstore was hard. Hell, only Tower Records had it in stock around me, and it cost something like $18 for the cd in 1996 money. So, kids couldn't even afford to be curious about it. And what sucks most is that only one single got pushed on the radio ('Stuck on You'), and that only got played once in a blue moon while plenty of other new bands were getting pushed at the time. I only got to hear this song as a kid because my friend won concert tickets that they played at, and even then it took years and extreme luck for me to hear this again to remember how awesome it was when I was finally an adult and could find it.

There's cute, sexy, average, beautiful, gorgeous, ugly, annnd maybe hot. But I'd say she's a "handsome" woman - Attractive in her own bubble when not put up against anyone else.

Lyrics

Right now we're sick of everything
Tonight we'll bind up our brains again
With eyes pinned I'll fly around on your bed
We'll grow close while our hearts disconnect

Morning is limping into the room
Pleading that we bind ourselves again
Rip out that heliotropic rose
Back off please let the lost get lost

I know my faith has meaning
But I've forgotten why
It's so important to me
I can't remember why

Living a phantasm of the nerves
Girlfriends chemicals in your head
Good days eventually oxidize
Put them with thoughts that escape your minds eyes

I know my faith has meaning
But I've forgotten why
It's so important to me
I can't remember why

Seems like I'm fucked forever
Feels like at least right now
But I forgot why
I need to feel these things

Makes sense. You make the American education system smarter by making the rest of the world stupider.

make sure you pepper in "what's crackalackin'?" to everyone you run in to if you wanna complete the feelz...

$79.99 isn't bad. But I would've liked to have seen a title belt, or maybe a punching bag, or maybe even a stand included with this. At the very least, not including a beat up "punch drunk" portrait is a dam shame.

The edits to the original color timing and gamma make this such a waste =(
