Since it's a slow day in the world of MMA, I thought it would be cool to talk about Tapology and ourselves.. anything at all regarding the same. I'll get a brief start going..
I live in PA, am 30 and have been a fan of MMA since I was a teenager. Work for the railroad and rarely ever miss an event regardless of promotion/stature. I like Tapology b/c of the environment it fosters. I wish we could edit/delete our posts... maybe have categories of threads for the forums, but all in all, I appreciate the type of place this is thus far.

So on 4th of July, I thought to myself "you know what I should do, tan with no sunscreen." and proceeded to do as such like a dumbass.
Now I have nice swaths of red skin and blisters all on my left shoulder. Boy was that a dumb ******* choice. Going to see a dermatologist or a doctor tomorrow to see what is up with my skin if this gets worse.

@Zach, you probably have a small opening in your dwelling somewhere. Have your landlord fix the issue or check yourself and seal that **** up right away, you don't want nasty ass flies infecting you with some weird disease they picked up from garbage and dead animals.
I had a basement window accidentally cracked open only an inch one summer and had the same problem with flies. That or you have a dead animal who died in the attic/basement or something.

@mikey
Landlord? lol I don't have a landlord. I can't afford a house or apartment with what I get paid. Thankfully the problem has been sorted out for now and we killed all of them and vacuumed up all the bodies. My folks think that it had something to do with the trash can being so close to the house, which is the most likely case.
I still have a feeling that we have a dead mouse or squirrel carcass in between the floorboards of the first floor and the basement (the basement is where the problem originated). Primarily because there is a small crack in the front porch between it and the grass that is just big enough for mice and **** to climb in.

Thanks for the link man. Might pick up some if the problem persists into next summer (if I haven't got enough money for my own place by then).

Doesn't matter what your living situation is really, it was either an opening they found or a dead animal and if you think it was an animal hopefully it decayed a lot by now.

I'm heading down to Flagler County, Florida (30min from Daytona) next week, does anyone have any suggestions on things to do or see in this part of the state?

I have not been to Florida in a long time, and I have never been to that part of the state(I went to the touristy parts where Disney World was as a young child) . But from what I have read, they have a few monuments in that part of the state if you are interested in that sort of thing, such as Fort Matanzas Monument and Washington Oak Gardens State Park. Plus since you are near Daytona, you could possibly check out Daytona speedway if you like auto racing things.

It happened. It ******* happened. Trump launched a bombing run on Damascus when there is still no concrete evidence Assad did the chemical attack. I'm not gonna lie, I'm ******* terrified right now.

@Imperator
He's ex KGB and a great statesman. I have to believe he understands the ramifications of this and will wisely back down. I am more worried about his generals if anything.
Also, I blame the establishment democrats and republicans WHO CONSISTENTLY SINCE 2011 DEMANDED WAR WITH SYRIA AND, by proxy, RUSSIA OVER THIS. They called Trump unstable, yet they prodded him into going to war? As far as I am concerned the blood is on their hands, as much as Trump's.

If you're so cruel you inspire militant rebellion against you..its probably for a good reason. Trump is trash but its not like people are grouping together to actively kill him. Yet, that's exactly what's happening in Syria. Half the pop wants Assad dead. Might as well do it for them.

Another illegal action executed under drumph's stewardship, in direct contravention of the powers of war act.Disgusting blood drunk regime. You know, assad wasnt a lunatic before Reagan ****** him over and subsequently caused the creation of ISIS in the process. Thanks America!! For ****'s sake. Blame the democrats all you want but this epic ****show is all happening under the directives of an utterly corrupt and morally bankrupt republican controlled congress.
Another war---just in time for the midterms.Holy ******* ****--what a twist! Why do i feel like ive heard this song before?
Americans dont understand what it means to be conservative. What suffices for the aformentioned in that corner of the world is crony capitalism, isolationist regression and petrodollar warmongering.
Go ahead and downvote me, but if you have to wonder why the general consensus throughout the rest of the civilized world is that Americans are violent hysterical imbeciles, then those are labels you probably deserve.
What a ******* disgrace.

A high thought not worthy of it's own thread...
The Random Fighting Championships.
Two fighters enter the cage. Then the ring announcer spins a giant wheel. On the wheel are several options of different combat sports. Tae Kwon do, Greco Roman wrestling, boxing, MMA, BJJ with a gi, no-gi submission grappling, freestyle wrestling, Judo, kick boxing, folkstyle wrestling, Sambo... Whatever the wheel lands on, that's how they fight. Maybe you could even spin again for every round. I'm not sure how that would work as far as time limits and scoring go though.

So this summer I have finally committed to working out again to get in shape and finally get under 200. About a month in so far and I have already lost 9 pounds so far and weigh 221. Just need to get the diet more in line with my working out as well as some portion control.
