I did bleach my hair 2 or 3 times many years ago. But I'm not sure how this picture is proof of that.

I am looking rock solid these days. Sorry for the confusion.

surely that pic proves that that can't be gramps, since the washington monument is still clearly visible

The cherry blossoms were in full bloom as well.

Saw that expensive (no doubt) chef knife and thought of this

It begs the question ToxicBug, are you in the trade or is this a collectable?

It's a two word sentence, I'm not sure how much more I can elaborate on it. I've always liked Cherry Blossoms though.

I hate to do this (talk about Gramps), cause he really gets off on it. It's really the only reason he posts here, to get a response from someone. He fucking loves it. However...that photo is average at best. And I'm no photographer myself. But there's absolutely nothing special about that picture. In fact, it's pretty bland...

If a plant could achieve what we see as enlightenment I think it would be a flower. Millions of years ago, when nothing roamed the surface plant life covered the planet. At some point, when the earth reached a critical point a plant flowered and the first flower appeared. It probably didn't last long, maybe a few minutes and was gone.

I think that's what we, as humans appreciate about them. Many plants serve no utilitarian purpose but their scent and aesthetics please us and I think that's because of what it represents in the natural world, a form of enlightenment for lack of better words.

I personally find cherry blossoms beautiful for a host of personal reasons so I like that picture. I'm sure you could find many technical reasons why that picture is ugly to you, from composition to whatever else you choose to look at and that's alright. I just enjoy pictures of Cherry Blossoms, there's nothing more to it than that.

It looks more expensive than it is, it's actually only $72 USD shipped from Japan. It's really good value for the money though.

I'm not in the trade, I just wanted a sharp kitchen knife :shrug:

Thanks, really happy I found it! Good timing, it was listed less than a day before I bought it.

Flowers are the sex parts of plants. Nice deep thoughts there though Jack Handy...

Plants are shit. Next up is some new age bullshit about how on the inside we're all potatos.

What if we all collectively ignored Gramps? We could go as far as to add him to our "Foes" list. Anyone game?
