What kind of drinking receptacle was it that the bottom falls off?

[Dillen]

It's a regular drinking glass. It came off at the little ridge near the bottom. I don't understand it either.

A bottomless cup.

Kanye West-Inspired Bitcoin Alternative Coinye West to Launch Next Week

[hbionic]

Big Brother, can you clear up what exactly bitcoin is? I still don't really get it.

Fake currency that you can mine (how?) and you can buy shtein with it?

[General_Failure]

No, I can not, but that's never stopped anyone here from trying something. It is a bullshtein made-up currency, but they're all bullshtein made up currencies unless they're backed by gold which is just a shiny metal. You can mine for it by offering up computing power to help do their transactions, which lead to the formation of new coins by magic and/or bullshtein.

You can probably buy things with it, sure.  Check websites that sell fedoras, pickup artist guides, and Ron Paul merchandise.

Utah Is on Track to End Homelessness by 2015

The state is giving away apartments, no strings attached. In 2005, Utah calculated the annual cost of E.R. visits and jail stays for an average homeless person was $16,670, while the cost of providing an apartment and social worker would be $11,000. Each participant works with a caseworker to become self-sufficient, but if they fail, they still get to keep their apartment.

i had the spiciest pho i've ever had in my life earlier. ladyfriend drove us home after. 5 minutes into the drive i get one of those tornado rumbles in my stomach and i know i won't make it back without shteinting my pants. i've only been out with this chick like 3 times. make her pull over to a 7-11 so i can "buy cigs". some dude is in the bathroom so i have to wait another 3-4 minutes. before i even got my pants all the way down in the bathroom it just rocketed out like a fireball...all over the toilet seat...all over the wall. it looked like a murder scene. of poop. felt so good though.

cleaned up the seat pretty well but didn't touch the wall. sorry guy.
