There are no stars here.

I thought Aini was cool until I found out she was a racist. She helped me work through some shit, summer of 2007, so I owe her at least that in respect. So I just stay away from her.

But this thread isn't about that, its about Requia's trip through Vegas.

yeah, I mean, I couldn't give less of a shit about what kind of plumbing aini has or how she chooses to identify herself (aside from the fact that she tried to meet me IRL in michigan under the pretense of, y'know, having a vagina, but I digress), I just brought it up because I didn't think it was fair to not share with the rest of you the delicious idiocy that this one fact adds to her claims of "I'm a racist because black men keep raping me."

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I think maybe I just assumed. Because, one, look at her pics, and, two, NO girl who was born a girl makes such a big deal about being a cute girl, or is constantly talking about how other people see her as this cute girl, etc etc etc. Seriously, the closest thing to someone who made that big a deal about being female was PurpleEris, and it wasn't that close. And she's super-into what a great big freak she is so that sorta ties in.

OR, maybe she dropped it in chat one day and I don't remember it.

EITHER

          SUN RA was totally racist, but he fuckin rocks.

OR

          Those hormones can fuck with a girl. And then there's Wisconsin.

OR, OR

          Ed Gein was comfortable with his sexuality. But Dahmer was racist.

Aini would fit in well here.

Too sore to write.  I got completely lost on the strip, and wandered around for a while before I gave in and flagged down a cab.

It does not help that the one map I could find were all inside twisty passageways of casinos, and that once you finally find your way out you have no idea at all what way North is (The previously mentioned lack of stars do not help, leaving Salt Lake's grid system is always a bit disorienting, but I can barely tell left from right here once the sun goes down).

This is my last night here.  Thank God for small favors.

(I have no idea how people survive with only laptops)

Practice.  Seriously, I found laptops awkward too, when I first started using them, but after a few months you're roaring away with the typing.

What bothers me about laptops is the proximity of the screen to the keyboard (and the size of the screen itself), also the integrated mouse is such a bitch to handle efficiently.

I love my PC, gives me more bang for my buck and feels more ergonomical.

1. I never liked Dags all that much, even before I realized that he either was Eric or was an Eric sympathizer.

Still no clue who eric is. Nor why the name dags still sticks with me.

[Cain]

Also, some of you guys really didn't know about Aini?  She talked about it in IRC a few times, as I recall.  Probably a couple of years back.

[hooplala]

Nope.  I had no idea.

The extent of my knowledge of Aini, until this thread, was that she was a freak show performer who ran a forum with Eric, claimed that a series of rapes was the excuse for her racism, ate fire, and had a split tongue.  The end.

Now I have one more piece of information and I still don't care.

[Triple Zero]

Wow, I didn't know about the split tongue ...

Vegas, alongside Disneyland, represents most of what is rotten and wrong about the American Nightmare™.

I have some thoughts on this, but I'd like Requia's say-so before I post them, because I don't want to hijack the thread.

i love Vegas and Disneyland

WHY DO YOU HATE FREEDOM?!!?!?!?!?!?  

[-Kel-]

Oh i also think Vegas killed Manhattan for me, or at least the initial "omg the sheer size of it and blah blah blah shock and awe of the city." I got there, and thought "ok, another city."

Requia hit up the bellagio and the forum shop at ceasers, then head over to the mirage for the dolphins and the beatles "love" show. Beyond awesome. the LUX at the Luxor is an all right club. There is a giant warehouse full of sex toys but i can't remember the name of it.

Huh?  Vegas is tiny.
