This is kind of funny, because I basically wear the same pair of jeans every day, and only wash them when it's convenient. That said, I am not part of what we might call the "unwashed masses."
I think my brother had a pair, though, and he was extolling their virtues to me (as he is wont to do, and I don't read that much into it because he is an everything-under-the-sun-snob-hipster and generally what he likes one day he thinks is juvenile and beneath him 2 weeks later). I think what I'm saying is that the process described isn't that shocking to me, because I would have no problem at all wearing jeans for 6 months straight without washing them.

Maybe they're like those socks that have like some silver nitrate stuff in them to kill bacteria. But FYI, they're terrible for the environment because the same stuff that hurts bacteria also hurts good organisms in the ecosystem
The more you know!!
Either I'm getting old and have no idea what you're talking about, or that's some pretty messed up **** right there.

Accepted the offer for Business Accounting. 2 year program. The college has an agreement with the local university for me to go there when I am done the two year program and complete the 3 year program in 2 years instead, because of taking the college course.
I'm on my iPod, so what I just said might not make sense. Essentially what I'm saying is instead of 5 years altogether it spill only be 4.

I love how everything made sense UNTIL the last sentence and you were worried about your mobile device messing up what you said.

So you're bridging from a college into a university to get a full degree in Business after 4 years, where it would normally take 5. Gotcha. Leave it to the BSc. to make sense of numbers.

In other news, my friend and I got traded to the team that thumped us 11-4 when we didn't have any guys show up. As the worst players on the worst team, we knew this was coming.
I'm pretty sure I know how this goes. All the guys who never showed up for my old team will now show up, and along with the good players they're getting in exchange for us, they're now going to be a powerhouse. Meanwhile, we're going to a team to replace what I assume are their best players with two first-timers who are defensive liabilities. In the end, though, I'm happy, because I'm pretty sure the goalie for our new team can actually stop a puck from time to time.

Good program choice.
As a future CPA, accounting is a great field.
The pay is decent, and gets substantially better once you get your designation.

Just played my fifth hockey game. This was our worst turnout yet. Exactly 0 of our strong forwards showed up, and we got hammered 14-5. On the bright side, I had two beautiful first assists and my friend got her first ever goal (and it was pretty nice as goals go). On the not so bright side, I missed a wide open net from about six feet away and then later got robbed by a glove save on a one-timer from the same spot on the opposite side. I'm going to be having nightmares about it until I get my first goal. My two assists were both one-time spinning passes. The first one from behind the net to the slot for a one-timer which impressed the hell out of my teammates and myself, and the second one was me picking up a turnover at the blue line and spinning on my backhand to send my linemate in on a breakaway. Both were pretty nifty and made the drubbing worthwhile. I now have 4 assists in 5 games, and I'm happily getting traded to a team which seems to have no commitment issues and a decent goalie.

Who, our goalie? He's just abysmal. Some goalies occasionally let in a softy. Our goalie occasionally saved them. There is no shot where you can assume he's going to make the save. Frankly, whenever the puck rolls toward him, there's a chance that he will somehow push it into his own net.
But the worst and most frustrating part is the laziness he displays when we're hemmed in our own zone. I mean, we'll have a line stuck in our own end for two minutes, completely ****ing exhausted, and mercifully the puck will squirt to him harmlessly so he can freeze it. 9 times out of 10, he'll just stay on his feet and poke at it with his paddle, often giving it right back to the opposition. It's like going down on his knees is a last resort with him.
Gotta hate goalies who are like that.
I have my last game tomorrow against one of the best teams in our divisions. The games have usually been really physical so hopefully we don't lose too bad. This season has been an atrocity; we've only won three games.
The Lethargic Sloths just signed this guy to be our starting goalie. We like what he has to offer in terms of character. His laziness needs some work, as he's extending himself a little too far, so he'll be working with our training staff in order to get into game shape, or a lack thereof.

Pretty sure he lost a bet (i.e. being the first call-up for Czech Olympic roster.)

I think you can see Paul Byron in the tunnel at the very end of the video too, also in gear. I think maybe they just wanted to shortest guys on the team to go for maximum comedic effect.
