Oh wow, sorry for the misunderstanding.

That makes a lot more sense, seems that the sweet spot is 50k no?

 

Wow what's with all these god dam referral hits with masters qual.

 

You should celebrate and eat a steak! No captchas anymore, masters galore!

 

Ugh I need all the strength in the world right now.

Chris's siblings dad (not his dad) and his siblings moved down here yesterday. The tl;dr of it all is that they are shitty awful trash people and we sent them a message explaining that we want nothing to do with them. Now they're throwing fits on facebook and being generally childish and stupid about it. The people they're staying with means that they'll be at the same bus stop Cissnei is at, so i'm going to run in to them sooner or later and i'm awful when confronted by people.

Sooooo right now thinking about going to the bus stop is making me want to throw up

 

Damn you @ChrisTurk

 

What about just Whip. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

You can buy masters, you can't buy the classiness that Mayo users have.

 

I wouldn't be shocked at all if there is a pending masters list of hundreds of people that they put on ping pong balls and draw from whenever a masters is revoked or the few times a year they give it out
