Title: Things you love
Post by: Binge on Tue, 02 September 2014, 10:28:10
I figured there are at least two dark, hate, annoyed with, etc. themed threads that seem to get a lot of attention around this off-topic sub; and so, here we have the things you love thread.

What do you enjoy?  What events, places, things, ideas have really got you jazzed for the next 5 minutes?  What about the next 5 years?

I'll start.

I love getting back home, and I loved getting away from it.  I was staying at a home away from home, but it didn't have my man-cave.

Things off the top of my head in general:

- Traveling: I'll be traveling for most of September. Going to Cleveland, Nashville, and New York City.
- Food: I tried grass fed steak for the first time yesterday, it was legendary.
- My career: Lately, things have been looking really good, especially with the promotion :D.
- Binge: He's the man ;)

I love my music. I like how a good tune can make you forget your problems just for a moment and how it can take you to its very own world.

I also love grey, cold rainy days.

Also, 3d animation and post production. Sounds weird, but I love it.

Enjoying the last month of summer.  Getting in as much outdoors activity as I can has been awesome.  Surfing, diving, kayaking...anything water-related.  Rock climbing, cycling, whatever.  Feels great just being outside in the sun.  Stress just melts away.

I even eat grass fed ground beef, son.

Also, cake and pies, cakes and pies! (And a nice tall glass of cold milk to accentuate them.)

That pic was me on Wednesday past 10 AM. I scared the crap out of two freshman girls I'm friends with. I was out cold to the extent they thought I was dead. I didn't even move when they poked me. Me and the teacher had a talk about how maybe I should try coffee.

You need to try Somersby. I think Canada has the good stuff, but it's made by Carlsberg and for some reason it tastes different in the UK compared to everywhere else in the world. I've had Icelandic, Norwegian and Croatian versions and they are ll the same. Just the UK that is different.

It tastes like Apple Tango. It's amazing...
