Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By DFARM: My only balis are a cheapo trainer from Amazon, a "jaguar" cheapo that I got at a pawn shop in Duncan, Oklahoma years ago and a Kershaw lucha with flytanium scales. The Kershaw is by far the nicest of the bunch, but I can't really carry it in a useful way because the flytanium scales don't have a latch or pocket clip. Your collection is pretty sweet. Thanks!  Yeah the Lucha is a great balisong for the price, and really nice with Flytanium. I have a few more coming soon. 2 handmade by an actual Phillipino dude, another Trident in antique green, also looking at a Prince Customs....

Seriously what a shitty place in the middle of humid tornado alley. I lived out of a hotel there for maybe 6 months. The irony is that Halliburton couldn’t find enough people to work for them so my employer charged them $280 an hour for my services. For those that don’t know, Halliburton was founded in Duncan and they have a bunch of business units there even though the hq moved away long ago. The one I stayed in shared the parking lot with taco bell. I went in there one night and was like "WTF, since when does taco bell need an armed guard?", Not two minutes later, two teenagers started grab assing in line to order and the guard told them to stop shoving each other because they bumped into another patron. The adult that was with them piped up "don't fucking talk to my kids like that" and got in the dudes face and continued to yell at him, guard puts his hand on his gun, dude keeps talking shit until the manager told him to leave, so he threatened the guard some more and left. Originally Posted By Star_Scream: I can send another if needed I'm covered, I'm just curious what I'm missing.

They wanted what they couldnt have...the straight guy. You just need to start a grinder account and link it to your only fans account.

Understandable, I work with one such person. You aint going to get good at it by sitting alone in your house playing Xbox. Get out there and mingle with folk and learn how to interact. Out of shape? Start working out, might meet someone at the gym. Just to clarify, I'm not saying be someone else or change who you are but rather strive to be the best version of yourself that you can. That's very nice advice, but that last sentence is an issue. You probably don't know, but arch is a home schooled compound kid living in the far northern canadian waste lands.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MaxxII: Brilliant. That's a sure fire way to earn back the trust and respect of people who used to buy your products but left because of shitty decision making skills. This will no doubt increase profit margins to the point that others will follow suit as well. fuckingidiotscantgobankruptfastenough Hawk looks cool. The camera works fine, might wanna pay attention to cropping the photo's some so you dont include things you dont want others to see or could be distracting from the image. I dont have a foot fetish so yours dont do anything for me. But I'm sure there's some canucki-stani lass out there who would swoon over your prehensile toes... All jokes aside, Star Scream really really has a great eye for color composition and photo composition. Pay attention to his photo's and see what he does. He's usually minimalistic in pics and doesnt have alot of clutter. Subject matter is often off set somewhat from the center of the picture, or drawing the eye to specific parts of the subject matter. He uses colors that both compliment and contrast with his subject matter frequently so the image doesnt look too "busy". I'm not sure he's doing it intentionally at this point, it's probably just instinctive for him. But if he was forced to take pictures of subjects other than knives, he'd probably be doing the same thing. Why in the AF would you be nice to Starscream? |
