Incorrect. When youtube defeats the current crop of adblockers, others will rise to replace them. Technology has always been an arms race between the mainstream and the underground, and it always will be. Google has to hire and pay dozens of people to figure out how to break an adblocker, all it takes to defeat youtube is one bored autist with a computer, pirated software, and a pot of coffee laced with amphetamines.
This. Knew a security guard who wrote scripts, composed music with this little keyboard, and generally did frick all the entire night. If it wasn’t such shit pay, it would be fantastic.
We have security monitors at work. There’s motion tracking and shape recognition on them (triggered on vehicles and human shapes) and they highlight anything they detect and begin recording the area they’re assigned to. It’s pretty slick.
They're right in front of me and have motion sensors so a little icon pops up whenever anything moves in front of them, which attracts my attention. Also everything's recorded so if I miss anything me or management can always check the footage. Only annoying thing is if I've gotta take a shit and somebody shows up at the door right then with takeout or something.

Security is amazing for poor people who want to advance in life. You can piss away the time by watching movies, but you can also use the time to study for a degree while getting paid
I did an apartment concierge gig for a security firm for a few years. Had 80% of my time to myself. Did some security shifts, the patrols took some time but still like 15 mins of every hour at least doing nothing.
The company was infested with Indians, so the company would do constant welfare checks on radios and surprise site visits to catch the gays on the phone or sleeping. The rotating / night shift shit ruined my life for a while. Got myself together after that, went to uni, went corporate.
lol the way for security companies to make money is by having more sites/locations aka need more bodies. every security company is always hiring and dont give a frick if you lie about having a high school diploma. they just want a warm body. they hire literal low iq Black folk and 80 year old barely alive seniors. you're just a bitter neet
worked night shift for a little while. there was a guy there who had been working nights for almost 10 years. his hair was completely gray despite being like 29 years old. fricking grim
Your circadian rhythm goes to shit and basic bodily processes like hormone production, etc goes to shit along with it, which makes you look and feel fricking terrible. It's not really that bad if you only work nights. Working rotating shifts is the real health-killer. I wouldnt do that shit again even if I was offered a $100k raise
Almost all of the men in my family on both sides spent the bulk of their careers doing at least nights if not shiftwork or multiple shifts. And all in different industry. I think there is a genetic predisposition for it, personally I seem to have like a 28hour rhythm.
I been working on rotating shifts for 5 years now and I'm totally fine.
The shifts are like 1 week on 12:00 to 20:00
1 week on 16:00 to 00:00
and 1 week on 20:00 to 04:00
And I feel fine, I alawys get enough sleep and shit.
I never understood this meme
A human being's quality of life is powerfully affected by the quality of sleep. Quality of sleep is related to the Circadian rhythm. A human being is not a nocturnal animal, so going against that natural rhythm is unnatural and will frick up your rest periods.
There's also the fact that you get your vitamin D from sunlight and if you never see any, you'll need supplements.
And God help you if you need to keep changing shifts. It takes a long time for the body to get used to any changes and even longer to recover from them. You'll just feel like shit every waking moment and sleep won't make you feel any better.
Early to bed, early to rise. This is how humans should live.
It’s hard on the body. You never get enough sleep, no matter how many hours you’re in bed. If you don’t have friends on a similar schedule, it’s very lonely. I developed a taste for adult swim because it was the only thing on at three am when I was getting home from work. I also found I had to take vitamin D supplements (like, a LOT of them) because it was making me depressed not seeing the sun for months at a time during the winter.
For me it's not the working that's bad, it's the days (nights) off. No one is awake, nothing is open, there's nothing to do. Good luck coordinating anything with your friends, they're asleep when you're awake and they're awake when you're asleep. If you live in a major city like New York it's probably not so bad but for me the only thing open on my days off was a pharmacy.
EMT here. I work around 1-2 night shifts a week.
The amount of stuff you can do on a free tuesday as compared to a saturday is amazing. Groceries, doctors appointment, dmv, everything is open and there are only old fricks at 10 in the morning.
i was wondering if anybody itt had mentioned ems when i got in, lol. on slow days i can literally finish a movie between calls and do whatever without a care. they don't call it earn money sleeping for nothing

sleep bottlenecks brain function, and syncing to circadian rhythm without having apnea is vital to not being a fricking zombie.
People you know may be addicted to drugs or have done crystal meth for a few years before you met them.
He's going to die before he's 40 if he's like the fellow I know.
I've been working nights for about 12 years. When I started I was married and occasionally smoked a little weed. Now I'm a divorced meth addict. WOO NIGHT SHIFT
That's what you get for basing your life around your job instead of the other way around. No job is worth it to compromise your health and general wellbeing for it, not for the usual payday at any rate. If the pay allowed you to retire very early then maybe it could be justified, but the jobs with the lousiest working conditions often are also those who pay like shit at the same time.
Worked in a steel plant in 2004. On night shift, there was this guy in support who would bring in his crumby laptop and play Bass Masters SNES with a game pad for half the night.
My mom worked at walmart for 30 years stocking shelves night shift, she could have been a manager on the day shift a long time ago but didn't want the stress and probably didn't want to change the sleep schedule she was used to, she basically slept all day and then just got up and went to work, she was tired all the time and very depressed and all kinds of pain problems from doing that kind of work, she died a year before retirement which sucks and I heard walmart doesn't even have a night shift anymore.. she was a tough lady and I miss her a lot. thanks for reading my blog.
Was an electricians apprentice for a little while. The old dude I was assigned to would sit in his car and watch Friends on a small laptop in between appointments. He’d power through like 5-10 episodes every single day and had been doing it for years. He knew every single line in every episode that he made me watch
>durr circadian rhythm
niggle me this, morons: why don't any two people have the same circadian rhythm? it changes with genetic variation, environmental cues, chronotype, gender and even age. and why did we acclimate so easily to a 6-8hr sleep schedule when we used to sleep for a few hours, get up, do shit, then sleep again when we needed to? because you're falling for more programming is why. look up "the myth of the eight-hour sleep". open your eyes.
>we used to sleep for a few hours, get up, do shit, then sleep again when we needed to
even when this was true, which was not universal, those who did this experienced negative effects. you can try it for yourself. you'll frick your life up. still function but generally zombify yourself slowly and subtly >why don't any two people have the same circadian rhythm?
mental illness (including ADHD) and unnatural light >why did we acclimate so easily to a 6-8hr sleep schedule
because that's good and more is not necessary. same as asking why each body requires so many calories. that's just how it shook out biologically with the systems in place
This. Workder drones only require two hours of sleep per cycle. Sleep is time stolen from the company.
I'm actually advocating for more sleep. They'd read or frick or visit neighbors in between sleeps. I've always slept between 10-14hrs regularly. I don't know how you eithoids function.

I have a 25.6 hour circadian rhythm, roughly. This variation is comparable to other people with a higher degree of neanderthal admixture. This is correlated to when neanderthals landed on earth on a spaceship. We used to live on both Titan and Venus but environmental issues made it unlivable; then on Venus, we used an anti-gravity machine and caused our moon to crash and destroy civilization. The remnants landed on Earth where our ancient, more primitive ancestors, still lived. We had only just began the process the speciation and so were able to breed, creating modern man. Some people, especially israelites, have high neanderthal mixture (don't believe blood tests) due to millennia of inbreeding, which is actually good for you, preserving psychokinetic abilities. Also, we created the pyramids as charge generators and leylines transported electricity across the globe.
Anyway, there's nothing wrong getting up in the middle of the night for an hour or two. Ideally, you "go to bed" at dusk, sleep a solid 4.5 hours (90 minutes is a sleep cycle), do stuff, then sleep another 4.5 for a minimum of 9. Extra sleep can be had as follows: 10.5, 12, and 13.5. More than that can make you too stiff, and your soul (which leaves the body when you sleep and enters the astral realm of light) needs to return. It's actually the beginning of rigor mortis, anon!
The only good thing about working nigh shift is nobody gives a frick. You can usually find some decent drug connections too because most night shifters are addicts or convicts.
Whoever made this hasn't worked a day in their life.
Night shift is indeed not that bad, especially compared to late shift which just fricks your whole day.
You realize you can just sleep once you go home right? I got a solid 8 hours every day when i was working night shift, I struggle to get 6 working regular hours. Sleep, free time, work is just so much more natural than sleep, work, free time.
A lot of important bodily processes, especially related to your endocrine system, are tied up to your circadian rhythm. There's no shortage of studies on how night shift work fricks with your circadian rhythm and leads to increased health complications among night shift workers. Health insurance companies know this very well and increase the price of health insurance for people who work nights
I can't imagine anyone working a night shift. You've got every study on earth telling you that heart disease, cancer, and every other terrible malady rates balloon in night shift workers, but people still say yes. Amazing.
Probably because you still have to live your life during the daytime and because of the kind of people who end up working night shifts, whether they prefer it or wether they just have no choice it's likely not very good to begin with.
Night shift is literally for ex-prisoners, drug frick ups, divorcees, people trying to get their lives back on track, and college kids. It's free money and you don't have to do anything. Nobody WANTS to do it, but a lot of these people don't really have a choice.
In college, I did night shift security for a couple of months. It was all good guys who fricked up at one point and wanted to better themselves. A chunk of them took Google Courses, bootcamps, or were enrolled in school for something. WE only had one old guy, and he took the job because his daughter was 16 and he wanted to make sure that she had enough cash for college without him having to pull from his IRA or 401K accounts.
Vitamin D deficiency is the only thing that long term night shift work can genuinely cause, which can be remedied fairly easily.
Sleeping during the day and working at night is not going to cause heart disease or cancer
If you're consistent about it in the long run and keep a very strict sleep schedule, then yes. But most night workers often have to wake up during the day to do shit that can't be done at night, which leads to a fricked up circadian rhythm and their endocrine system going haywire as a result. And the endocrine system plays a big part in pretty much every bodily function that you have
You're supposed to be productive at work and contribute to your community, stupid homosexual. Watching movies is a reward for your work during free time.
Graveyard shift on a watch floor or service desk. In the Army I got put on a 12 hour graveyard shift on a watch floor with 4 other guys(2 other solders and 2 contractors) 3 days on 4 days off alternating for 2 years. Our whole job was to press a button if a green light went red that would turn it back to green.
Spent the whole time watching youtube, movies on Prime, and playing the occasional game of monopoly with the other watch officers as we were called. The contractors were making bank allegedly and use Army guys were able to get out of doing alot of the dumber parts of being in the military like morning PT and mandatory morning/afternoon formations.
Still not sure what exactly we were doing there but I sure as hell watched a ton of Ridiculousness
there could very well be a cia interrogator free of torture charges because someone else 3000 miles away was pushing the button for the scrotum scruncher 9000
never tried nights but i work evenings as a chef and its pretty based going home in an empty bus at 23, playing vidya for a few hours, sleeping 8 hours, working out and heading back. dunno why but waking up early regularly just sounds horrifying to me
Work at a cinema and you'll get to see every film released during your employment for free. Was a projectionist for 3 years between 2005-2008 and watched every single movie released during that time
I've worked for a kiosk style gas station before. Spent half my night sitting there watching shit/reading/listening to music.
Also knew a guy who was fired because he discovered the lottery machines ran on some linux distro and was caught playing Doom.
i remember i worked night shift at a factory and after like 2 months i got hit by this weird feeling of being drowsy 24/7 like i would legit be driving and pass out for a seconds at a time i did that for about a year till i stopped and realized how depressed you get if you dont let the sun straight up touch your skin also taught me about vitamin D even with supplements it cant fully fix you not being in the sun
I live in a nordic country and literally everyone I know supplement with vitamin D or fish oil during the winter months. Before vitamin D supplements were a thing people here ate fish like 4-5 times a week to make up for the lack of sun but frick doing that
Also, starting in the 1930s and all the way to the 1970s, a tablespoon of fish oil was mandatory for kids every day in school as a vitamin D substitute. At least in my country
>and theyre fine.
We literally have a genre of music invented by people who moved from rural villages to Oslo, and could not cope with the absolute horror of going from meadows and pines to indoor darkness and concrete jungles.
And even worse: Dark snowless winters
Lol what is this bullshit about night shifts being hard or unhealthy? Neets regularly stay awake between 4pm and 7am
I literally just took my neet habits from college to a paid job. It's a win win
I'll take it every time over soul draining business hours slogfests
>bunch of technobabble homosexualry
I take my glycine and get 8 hours. Been thinking about taking commissions so I can make more money on my night shift.
rope access supervisor at a refinery >2 hours of watching someone work a day >other 8 hours are on a steamdeck in the truck or office >$55/hr+ >$50/day loa >$200/week travel
I work in tech from home. I have movies open on a second monitor hooked up to a mini PC beside my work PC essentially all day. Pretty comfy, but I have to make sure it doesn't distract from work too much. I have a lot of periods in my day where I'm not too actively busy.
Security is probably the best job for that. You're just paid to keep your ass in a chair so the company has a lower insurance premium. There was a separate guard shack building at my last job, and the guys there had TV and a mini-fridge and just goofed off all day, and every few hours smoked some weed behind the shack. It was like a clubhouse, but I can't imagine they were paid much.
I used to work in the biosolids industry lol. Biosolids = poopoo peepee. The company was a contractor who did work for sewage treatment plants. We ran 24/7, and I had the night shift. All I had to do was sit and watch a big machine, either a belt press or a centrifuge for separating solids from water. I made great money, and 90% of the time it was a total Homer Simpson job, so I could just sit and read. Sometimes I would read an entire novel on a shift. The only problem was the other 10% of the time when the machine would frick up and I'd find myself knee deep in poopoo peepee.
zoomers are something else man, they watch hardcore porn in public casually on background like it's a baseball game or something it's really fricked up.
I grew up with unfettered access to the internet
I started watching vanilla porn on my PSP around 10 years old and moved onto BDSM, scat, and bestiality at some point later on in middle school
You can get desensitized pretty fast and want to move on to more outrageous things
>on my PSP around 10 years old
I don't buy it, that thing could barely load Wiki pages, no way it could handle porn. Closest I got was pictures of models in menu backgrounds for sale on the app store lol
NTA but I used my PSP for porn all the time because I wasn't allowed to have a computer in my room growing up. You couldn't stream videos but you could definitely look at image galleries
and yeah, image galleries were also a thing I loved back then
for me, it was coedcherry and random galleries I'd get to after searching for things like, lesbian porn pics"
iirc it took me around 15 minutes to download a shitty 8 minute, 480p clip to the device from whatever website I was using back then
It was worth it and the reason I don't pay for porn to this day
YouTube videos. I like the speedtv/power nation engine building videos
>tfw i'm probably going to have to give it up because they insist we watch their ads
I know there's workarounds for now but it's only a matter of time before youtube wins the war.
you should have already bren watching youtube on mpv since the youtube player has been garbage for years.
get your subs from rss feed.
Why the frick would I have subs? I go to YT when I want to specifically look up a video, not hear what the latest eceleb release is

Security.
This. Knew a security guard who wrote scripts, composed music with this little keyboard, and generally did frick all the entire night. If it wasn’t such shit pay, it would be fantastic.
This. I remember a thread back on /k/ where a dude was posting from his work and he had e621 and Cinemaphile tabs up on the browser at his station.
This. I do security watching monitors and normally I watch 2-3 movies per night
Aren't you supposed to actually watch the monitors?
Most of the time very little actually happens on the monitors...
We have security monitors at work. There’s motion tracking and shape recognition on them (triggered on vehicles and human shapes) and they highlight anything they detect and begin recording the area they’re assigned to. It’s pretty slick.
They're right in front of me and have motion sensors so a little icon pops up whenever anything moves in front of them, which attracts my attention. Also everything's recorded so if I miss anything me or management can always check the footage. Only annoying thing is if I've gotta take a shit and somebody shows up at the door right then with takeout or something.
Sure, but there's minimal amount of active watching needed during the nighttime. Everything important even gives you some kind of alarm
I'm on the night shift right now
Will watch a horror kino or two in a minute
Security is amazing for poor people who want to advance in life. You can piss away the time by watching movies, but you can also use the time to study for a degree while getting paid
>time to study for a degree
lol never literally met anyone that actually has while working security

This is absolutely untrue, by the way. Everyone on Cinemaphile who pretends to have "le epic night security job" is a full of shit NEET.

Whoever made this hasn't worked a day in their life.
Night shift is indeed not that bad, especially compared to late shift which just fricks your whole day.

You realize you can just sleep once you go home right? I got a solid 8 hours every day when i was working night shift, I struggle to get 6 working regular hours. Sleep, free time, work is just so much more natural than sleep, work, free time.
A lot of important bodily processes, especially related to your endocrine system, are tied up to your circadian rhythm. There's no shortage of studies on how night shift work fricks with your circadian rhythm and leads to increased health complications among night shift workers. Health insurance companies know this very well and increase the price of health insurance for people who work nights
I can't imagine anyone working a night shift. You've got every study on earth telling you that heart disease, cancer, and every other terrible malady rates balloon in night shift workers, but people still say yes. Amazing.
Probably because you still have to live your life during the daytime and because of the kind of people who end up working night shifts, whether they prefer it or wether they just have no choice it's likely not very good to begin with.
>but people still say yes
The slightly increased pay for night shift is bait for people who have low income and need the money
Night shift is literally for ex-prisoners, drug frick ups, divorcees, people trying to get their lives back on track, and college kids. It's free money and you don't have to do anything. Nobody WANTS to do it, but a lot of these people don't really have a choice.
In college, I did night shift security for a couple of months. It was all good guys who fricked up at one point and wanted to better themselves. A chunk of them took Google Courses, bootcamps, or were enrolled in school for something. WE only had one old guy, and he took the job because his daughter was 16 and he wanted to make sure that she had enough cash for college without him having to pull from his IRA or 401K accounts.
Nice group of guys. Security usually attracts those types. I’ve worked night shift in warehouses & its nothing but druggies, cons, & subhumans.
My mom needs my help during the day so I work nights
all of that's been debunked honey
Vitamin D deficiency is the only thing that long term night shift work can genuinely cause, which can be remedied fairly easily.
Sleeping during the day and working at night is not going to cause heart disease or cancer
If you're consistent about it in the long run and keep a very strict sleep schedule, then yes. But most night workers often have to wake up during the day to do shit that can't be done at night, which leads to a fricked up circadian rhythm and their endocrine system going haywire as a result. And the endocrine system plays a big part in pretty much every bodily function that you have
isn't "night shift" like 5am? That doesn't seem bad at all and if you go to sleep at 9am everyday it's no problem.
Night Shift at Hotel front desk, never got more reading done in my life
For a degree or just random books?
the latter
You're supposed to be productive at work and contribute to your community, stupid homosexual. Watching movies is a reward for your work during free time.
I caught a fire right when it was starting in the middle of the night once, I've pretty much got a free pass to keep this job for life if I want it
Graveyard shift on a watch floor or service desk. In the Army I got put on a 12 hour graveyard shift on a watch floor with 4 other guys(2 other solders and 2 contractors) 3 days on 4 days off alternating for 2 years. Our whole job was to press a button if a green light went red that would turn it back to green.
Spent the whole time watching youtube, movies on Prime, and playing the occasional game of monopoly with the other watch officers as we were called. The contractors were making bank allegedly and use Army guys were able to get out of doing alot of the dumber parts of being in the military like morning PT and mandatory morning/afternoon formations.
Still not sure what exactly we were doing there but I sure as hell watched a ton of Ridiculousness
Thank you for your service
Appreciate it
fricking army homosexual
boot licker homosexual
there could very well be a cia interrogator free of torture charges because someone else 3000 miles away was pushing the button for the scrotum scruncher 9000
>hey, Bill, what do you think happens if we let the light stay Red?
I'm a neet who goes to bed at 4 AM and wakes up at 1 PM.
It's not that bad but if I randomly had to be awake some days and up some nights I imagine that's what fricks you up.
>bed at 4 AM and wakes up at 1 PM
Same, except I wake up an hour earlier, and am currently employed. I miss the neet life so much.
I'm a NEET night owl who stays up until 7am and gets out of bed at 4PM. I've got enough bags under my eyes to fill a grocery store.
I've been working nights about a year and a half, it's not that bad. Just maintain a schedule.
On call jobs are the best jobs period
NEET on gibs hardmogs every other job for kino watching
Need a comfy job that covers 3pm to 11pm. The comfier the better.
dunno what u gays are on about. working nightshift is one of the best life hacks to avoid traffic and normies
They're gays who think they need their precious sun to survive
never tried nights but i work evenings as a chef and its pretty based going home in an empty bus at 23, playing vidya for a few hours, sleeping 8 hours, working out and heading back. dunno why but waking up early regularly just sounds horrifying to me
Work at a cinema and you'll get to see every film released during your employment for free. Was a projectionist for 3 years between 2005-2008 and watched every single movie released during that time
I've worked for a kiosk style gas station before. Spent half my night sitting there watching shit/reading/listening to music.
Also knew a guy who was fired because he discovered the lottery machines ran on some linux distro and was caught playing Doom.
i remember i worked night shift at a factory and after like 2 months i got hit by this weird feeling of being drowsy 24/7 like i would legit be driving and pass out for a seconds at a time i did that for about a year till i stopped and realized how depressed you get if you dont let the sun straight up touch your skin also taught me about vitamin D even with supplements it cant fully fix you not being in the sun
people in nordic countries barely see the sun outside of spring and summer and theyre fine. maybe youre just a little b***h
most people in nordic countries look like inbred ghouls though
>theyre fine
They have higher rates of depression and vitamin D deficiency, moron
>They have higher rates of depression
Yeah, because they live in a nordic country dipshit lmao
Has nothing to do with muh sun
Yeah I'm sure life is hard in Norway
Dumb frick
Correct, seething moron
>Norway chad
I live in a nordic country and literally everyone I know supplement with vitamin D or fish oil during the winter months. Before vitamin D supplements were a thing people here ate fish like 4-5 times a week to make up for the lack of sun but frick doing that
Also, starting in the 1930s and all the way to the 1970s, a tablespoon of fish oil was mandatory for kids every day in school as a vitamin D substitute. At least in my country
>and theyre fine.
We literally have a genre of music invented by people who moved from rural villages to Oslo, and could not cope with the absolute horror of going from meadows and pines to indoor darkness and concrete jungles.
And even worse: Dark snowless winters
In night shift my blood pressure went from 150/100 to over 180/120 and quality of sleep down to drain. Never again.
Lol what is this bullshit about night shifts being hard or unhealthy? Neets regularly stay awake between 4pm and 7am
I literally just took my neet habits from college to a paid job. It's a win win
I'll take it every time over soul draining business hours slogfests
>bunch of technobabble homosexualry
I take my glycine and get 8 hours. Been thinking about taking commissions so I can make more money on my night shift.
Used to work rotating night, morning, evening. Evening weeks the longest, nights the shortest. Mornings fricking suck ass, i miss working nights.
rope access supervisor at a refinery
>2 hours of watching someone work a day
>other 8 hours are on a steamdeck in the truck or office
>$55/hr+
>$50/day loa
>$200/week travel
I work in tech from home. I have movies open on a second monitor hooked up to a mini PC beside my work PC essentially all day. Pretty comfy, but I have to make sure it doesn't distract from work too much. I have a lot of periods in my day where I'm not too actively busy.
Security is probably the best job for that. You're just paid to keep your ass in a chair so the company has a lower insurance premium. There was a separate guard shack building at my last job, and the guys there had TV and a mini-fridge and just goofed off all day, and every few hours smoked some weed behind the shack. It was like a clubhouse, but I can't imagine they were paid much.
I used to work in the biosolids industry lol. Biosolids = poopoo peepee. The company was a contractor who did work for sewage treatment plants. We ran 24/7, and I had the night shift. All I had to do was sit and watch a big machine, either a belt press or a centrifuge for separating solids from water. I made great money, and 90% of the time it was a total Homer Simpson job, so I could just sit and read. Sometimes I would read an entire novel on a shift.
The only problem was the other 10% of the time when the machine would frick up and I'd find myself knee deep in poopoo peepee.
Did it smell bad there all the time?
>I'd find myself knee deep in poopoo peepee.
Some of that was probably mine
Working past 7pm should be illegal.

How can you watch porn like this without being on meth
zoomers are something else man, they watch hardcore porn in public casually on background like it's a baseball game or something it's really fricked up.
We do coke around here
I grew up with unfettered access to the internet
I started watching vanilla porn on my PSP around 10 years old and moved onto BDSM, scat, and bestiality at some point later on in middle school
You can get desensitized pretty fast and want to move on to more outrageous things
>on my PSP around 10 years old
I don't buy it, that thing could barely load Wiki pages, no way it could handle porn. Closest I got was pictures of models in menu backgrounds for sale on the app store lol
NTA but I used my PSP for porn all the time because I wasn't allowed to have a computer in my room growing up. You couldn't stream videos but you could definitely look at image galleries
and yeah, image galleries were also a thing I loved back then
for me, it was coedcherry and random galleries I'd get to after searching for things like, lesbian porn pics"
iirc it took me around 15 minutes to download a shitty 8 minute, 480p clip to the device from whatever website I was using back then
It was worth it and the reason I don't pay for porn to this day
Submariner , navy pilot.
if you learn a skill instead of wasting your time for a nearly above minimum wage night shift it's actually kind of comfy.
t. got certified in all kinds of shit and made money off a college degree due to tuition reimbursements the company gave.
Now I make 90k-ish don't pay for gas and watch movies while driving an hour away to hot swap disks at a fortune 500 company
2 morning shifts, 2 afternoon shifts, 2 night shifts, 4 days off
this has been my life for the last 2 years
its fricking kino
We should go camping together. No need to waste money on a tent or sleeping bag when I can just sleep in one of those bags underneath your eyes
NO
