So I already started a bit of advertising. Bryce from AZ said for sure. Nicknyte wants some revenge too 
And I don't want to spoil it but a big name pro is gonna come to this. Want to know who? Guess you're just gonna have to show up and see!
Lol I will see if I can actually get someone big out here

It's at UNM. I think it's a "language" festival, but they will have Japanesed oriented attractions like origami, calligraphy, drawing, singing, martial arts, and more. I can probably get you some more information if you are interested.
An address works wonderfully, though I mostly remember how to get there.
I'm not really HATING on it, per say... it's just... not my thing, but I'm more than open to trying it again. I do love me some ambrosia.
That, actually, sounds freaking delicious. BBQ sauce is a good way to make anything better.0
Yes. Yes it does ^____________^
Very much so actually.

Why is this so funny? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_Ef0Cb4UYA
Is it because the annoying guy obviously has a homotastic crush on his roommate? Or is it because the black guy is wearing a shirt that says "I <3 Haters"? Or maybe it's because the black guy really does suck at Mario Kart.

It starts at 9:00 AM Saturday (with origami) and then there are several other events throughout the day up until 12:30 PM, I think.
I'll probably be there from 9:30 to 10:30 or 11:00 AM.
I also, if I had to guess, think it is had Oretga Hall. Not entirely sure, though. That's where the language department is and that's where it was held when I went two years ago.
I don't think it's funny at all. It's some mean, stupid *** gang banger ****ing with his roommate who just wants to play some video games. He's being a total ****.

So, a couple of things proving I'm a massive bum:
1: Can somebody lend me a DS for like a couple weeks? I was unable to repair mine, and I'm not going to buy a used one when the 3DS is coming so soon, but Pokemon Black is out sunday.....
2: If I get up to Erichs, can somebody give me a ride back? I can provide gas money.
(and Erich can PM me his adress so I can find my way up there lol)

@Walker- you really, really need a job and to not give up hope on finding one. Once you have one, that first paycheck will be the best day of your life I assure you.
@shut up paul.
@august- no.
@Davis- when's that thing? This Saturday Molly and I are going to the fiery food show woo >:D

There's no such thing as not finding a job after a year of searching.
Either you aren't actively searching hard enough, or you aren't doing something right during interviews, or both.

Keep in mind the large interval working at active. I did stop looking for a while after that, but I've been looking since the new year.
I could totally believe that I would be terrible at interviews, if only I could get them in the first place >>>

Walker plenty of people told you to keep looking for a job while you were volunteering at Active, but you never listened, so I can only guess how little of this is going to be absorbed by you but, here goes-
1. Be proactive. You have to go in and ask to see the manager. Not "can I have an app?" because that doesn't work unless if they are FRANTICALLY searching for replacements for people who got fired, quit, or a combination of the two.
Speak to the STORE manager (not night manager, day manager, etc.) and convey to them that you are in fact serious about finding a job and willing to work hard, and then ask THEM if you can have a job app.
Fill the job app out at the ****ing store. The instant you leave with the app, your chances at having a good first impression are gone, because they now can't peruse your information after meeting you.
2. Be personable. In your case, this means less opinion and more "yes sir/ma'am" they don't care what your opinion of a product is, or whether YOU would buy it, they care whether you'll be able to shut up long enough to actually sell the product/service, clean it, prepare it, whathaveyou. It's business, where people try to earn a living, if you don't seem like you can handle it, they won't say anything directly to you, and they won't call you back. You're more likely to forget about their store turning you down if they just never call you back, and therefore are more likely to become a future customer of theirs.
When speaking to the manager, give them your first/last name, shake their hand firmly (without having any **** on your hand) and REMEMBER THEIR NAME. LISTEN TO THEM. Do NOT mumble under your breath every word they say, as you normally do. Just listen, and pay attention. The rest of this "mini-interview" should come naturally to you because you are a human being.
3. Be PERSISTENT. Do not wait for them to call you- go in when you remembered the store manager was going to be there, and ask to speak with them (ASK FOR THEM BY NAME, AND DO NOT REFER TO THEM AS STORE MANAGER) again. Ask them if they got around to checking out your app, let them know you're available to speak any time they might call you, etc.
4. Do NOT call every day. If you walked in, spoke with the manager again, and they haven't called you back the next day, that's fine. Wait 1 more day then give them a call, ask for them, and if they don't decide to call you back after this, there are several possible reasons, but they aren't going to hire you.
Timeline-
Day 1: Speak with Bob the store manager, ask him for an app, fill it out and turn it in.
Day 2: Go back in and speak with Bob, bull**** with him if he's not busy, but do not linger.
Day 3: Wait.
Day 4: Call.
Day 5: enjoy your new job.
Day 10-23: Cash your first paycheck ever.

Lol Timotaye nailed it spot on. Except for
Day (sometime) - Go on Vacation
5 days later - hate returning to the real world. Question if you can afford staying one more day.

Ok, so... I have, up until now, hated on MK. But, because of this, I'm willing to give MK9 a chance.

As strict as it seems, I agree with Dekar's method on how to find a job. Jobs rarely find people and thus most of the time one has to find the job. The only way to get a job without really trying is to have someone you know offering it to (or creating it for) you, which requires you to network with various companies/executives/people etc. But for smaller scale jobs, as opposed to full scale careers, you need to be persistent on obtaining the job, and show the hiring group that you will perform beyond their expectations.

Avoidance of the subject... yeah it was definitely porn. Now we just need to figure out what type it was. I'm guessing live action tentacle bukkake (straight, no homo)
