yep, cbear makes everything look easy as pie…and she gets to eat it too! biatch…very nice work.
i’ve done front squats at baby weights…they are way more challenging. did you notice your core engaged more than a regular?
my wrist would snap in half if i did them oly style, no thanks. and unlike you, i’m in need of some badass points so i will suffer through something else to try and scrape some up.

“felon” is the piece of shit that gunned Down 4 officers taking a break. The piece of shit had 13 felony charges agaist him and shouldn’t have been on the street in the first place. When he gets caught he needs to spend an afternoon with my roomate and I we will teach him some
new tricks.
ya, pretty much what he said.
And the million dollar bonus is they will use what this worm … Piece of shit … Insect did as excuse to take away my guns. This is a prime example of why everyday law abiding citizens should have guns. Someone should have dropped the bastard as he was coming out the door.
That happened in my city, which funny enough has the least gun condoning mentality probably in the entire country (I have no proof of this so don’t make me back it up). I mean come on, recycling is like a religion here…guns, don’t think so. Not for the granola lovers.
They eat soy too.
However, Washington is known for the crazies, so not really all that surprised.
Honestly, tho, the liberalism and environmentally conscious attitude are huge reasons why I haven’t moved yet…that and I’m lazy.
Felon - the guy I dated a few years ago?
felons are the 2000 sacks of shit who my misses overlooks every day for a living. and she’s so lucky here in CA, that 3 of those days a month she is going to work for FREE. (work furloughs for SOME state workers, but officers don’t get to take friday off for a long weekend, they must go to work and then often get drafted for mandatory additional 8 hours to provide adequate staffing or transport them to nice hospitals for knee replacements, heart surgery, etc)
sorry-rant. and i’m one of the biggest gun-toting liberal (in some aspects) environmentalist you are likely to ever meet.
and my sister dates felons…wtf
Regarding measurements, where are you taking the hip measurement - top of the hip bone? I usually take one measurement which is around the widest part, so guessing this is what you call your butt.

With all due respect, the unions are worse than the mafia when it comes to strong arm tactics for it’s members. You cannot fire a teacher or a guard for the life of anyone, they are simply transferred to another institution. No one here in California cares about the furloughs, other than people crying that the DMV was closed (as if that really affected that cluster fuck of an institution.)

The only good thing about unions is that they’re the reason companies are relocating their operations to South Carolina and other right-to-work states. Hooray jobs!
Oh yeah, and fuck gun control.

That’s where I’d take it from.
Cbear, your chest measurement is baffling me. I’m certain your chest and lats must be bigger than your waist!
bobbi and wol- this is a long one, skip to page 33.
cal- yes, right around the top of the hipbone, the “butt” measurement is around the part of my butt that sticks out the most.
debra- its quite possible i have no idea what im doing. or mom.
maximus and stronghold- good to see you two in here.
Belini- broken the law-- ok, but lots of people break laws every day, including minor traffic violations. something malicious? ok. I’ll run with that.
T- so sorry your gf gets her schedule, and her pay, jerked around like that. I wonder, would you feel the same about felons if she worked for a diff govt institution? does your sis pick out felons to date or does she just happen to meet lots of them?
shauna- +5 cool points. you’ll see why. its indicative of your character.
Personally, I seem to be a felon magnet. I love, or have loved, each of these examples, and not in the same way.
has been charged, but not convicted of, possession of narcotics with intent to distribute. I know his character, and he was in possession of a large amount of illegal drugs when he was arrested. however, the intent to distribute bothers me, because I know he bought in bulk, and used the drugs for only himself. The drugs didnt interfere with him getting his MBA, or holding down a job. you wouldnt guess it if you met him. Case pending, due to seemingly infinite continuances.
meth lab. did his time, cleaned up. one of the most beautiful people i’ve ever met in my life. one of the two i’ll talk about that i feel privileged to know.
charged with 5 counts of gross sexual imposition, 1 count of rape, and a bad check writing scam. the rape and 4 counts of gsi were dropped, leaving 1 count of gsi on the table. the 911 tape and court records show an incredibly calm woman with no bruises, abrasions, lesions, or any other trauma, even tho she claimed she’d been restrained and beaten during intercourse. the 1 count of gsi means the jury thinks he was naked with her at some point. most boyfriends usually are naked with their girlfriend at some point. i dont know the details of the check scam, but this one is honestly better off in prison. however, he does have to register as a sex offender anywhere he goes, because some dumb cunt tried to fight dirty.
declined the publicity, but another person that i consider myself very, very lucky to know.
they’ve been judged by a group of their peers, sentenced by a judge who was voted into office, and everybody generally agrees that this is the right way to do things.
they can never own a firearm. they can never serve jury duty. they can never work for a city, state, or federal govt office. none of them will ever be able to get a real job again, because the stereotype is so foul.
It doesn’t take long to become institutionalized, esp if you want to keep your body and its bits in one piece. before they leave, there’s no preparation for re-entering the real world. no one teaches you how to go about finding a job, set up residence, check in at a homeless shelter, fill out the welfare paperwork, or how to re-enter society in general. social conduct outside is so different from inside, it takes someone reminding you, on a semi-regular basis, that things are different now. like waking up from a very long, very bad nightmare.
I say that to say this. I dont think any of those crimes are worth having your life destroyed. serve your time, sure. ok. bullshit charge or not, get locked away, learn your lesson, then go back to the real world with a few restrictions (I have no problem with the first set). Having all of those other opportunities taken away is too much. They’re being set up for failure at life, and re-entry to prison.
Technically, between tickets and a few other misdemeanors, my rap sheet is longer than most of theirs… if i had been CAUGHT for all the stuff I ever did, during that period of my life when i was a much cockier asshole, i’d be in for L.I.F.E. i’ve reformed, and i got to start clean. they dont, and 3 of them are people i admire on a sick level. infuriating.
from a PM i received, a defense lawyer;
many males pick up charges during their late teens and twenties due to alcohol or drug abuse or just being cocky dumbasses. Alot of domestic abuse charges crop up due to poor communication skills, insufficient cognitive processing ability and poor relationship models.
There are a few, very few, truly evil people. These exist at every layer of society.
…
Now, with respect to the criminal justice system…its much like a sausage factory. No-one really wants to know exactly how its done because its so ugly. Some poor sucker through dumbassery or bad choices in friends or women can easily enough be drawn into a situation where charges are filed against him. Then the risks of going to trial, losing and then getting whacked with alot of time in the slammer can force even innocent people into taking a “good” plea deal whereby they admit to something they didn’t do in order to get the certainty of not going to jail. In some states, legal representation for indigent defendants sucks total ass, and if you can’t afford a good lawyer you are gonna get screwed, you know it, so you take a deal. Oftentimes without knowing the collateral consequences of a plea (sex offender registration, trouble getting jobs because of a bad criminal record, etc.)
…
A person is not a “felon”. That implies that they are the sum total of the worst thing they ever did. No one of us can be judged by that standard without looking like a dirtbag. Its a red flag – a big one.
Just for the record none of the above x’s is me. I have problems with relationships dude to a horrible family
history. There is no way in hell i would have admitted I had issues before, but just admitting it
to myself and others has been very helpful.
I’m a lightweight (clean record ect)
Jim
Yeah, I’m with you that the system is really bad at rehabilitating people or accepting that they change. And drug policy is so awful I can’t even think about it.
But something to think about, though I don’t want to make you mad: why do you get involved with people who get charged with felonies? Is it (consciously or subconsciously) a choice or are those just the people you happened to meet?
Also, obligatory comments: yes, Seattle guy is a piece of shit; yes, I hope nobody goes overboard with gun control because of this; Seattle, aside from being home to at least one murderous piece of shit, seems like a great city and I’d love to visit/live there. (Then again, I’ll only really feel at home in a leftie town.)

nah u wouldnt make me mad!
one is an ex boyfriend, one is a friend, one is a relative, one is unclassified as of today.
there can be a whole lot of arguments for the subconscious decisions we make, but i’m not aware of anything in particular that they have in common that draw me to them.
