our take home pay was forty seven cents, a frisbee, three joints, an earring, some cigarettes and the beer we drank while we were there....
to be fair, they were going to pay you 50.00$USD but the beer you hooligans drank up totaled 49.53....

So does anyone here like to swim? yes, but I don't get much of a chance to anymore.
That and unlike when I was younger, apparently the water likes to go up my sinus cavity and give me one hell of a headache, guess I shouldn't have had that deviated septum fixed 10 years ago.

Well....that's rather mundane...*Points to a nearby river* jump in...now... I would no dare swim in any of the local bodies of water near my residence. Only place I would that's near by is a reservoir, but it has reports of Rabid Beaver attacks. No thanks.

I'm not even being racist: there's a very strange cultural taboo at the heart of why African-Americans regularly do not learn how to swim and, thereby, have a certain phobia of water deeper than 1'.

I thought it goes back to imposing Jim Crow laws, restrictions on public facilities, etc. I could be wrong though.

I've read some African-American scholars posit that it is some holdover from slavery to prevent escapees from being able to get across rivers and lakes. Given slavery only ended about 150 years ago, it's not the most outrageous thing I've ever heard.
That said, when I was growing up, all the city pools were filled with dark-skinned folk. You had to get into some of the super-white suburbs to find a free or nearly-free public pool with pale people like me in it.

Hmmm...That makes sense. 150 years is a blip in time too. Enough for a few generations to lose the instinct, I suppose.

Anyone here ever actually taught someone to swim? My neighbor growing up had never been taught (I was born on the Atlantic coast, I learned to swim in the *** North Atlantic Current) and asked me to help him. I didn't turn him into Michael Phelps, but if he falls in water today, he's unlikely to drown.

my biggest complaint about the local pool is that it's old, and the city has multiplied in size a lot since it was built, and they really just need to build another one or two, as it's always overpopulated.
That was when I went regularly, I hadn't checked the population counts in a bit, but I imagine it's only gotten worse.

Most of the pools people here in NYC now have access to were built specifically for whites and are effectively hand me downs now the original inhabitants of the neighborhoods have all gone out to Long Island to be crushed under heroin and drug addiction.
During the Public works boom of the 50s our generous overlord Robert Moses built these public places away from the undesirables, uprooted/fractured a ton of neighborhoods to build our freeways and designed these new roadways in a manner that separated people from access to the rivers where people once swam. You know, if you like swimming in polluted streams that have become Superfund sites. Seeing people fish (and not release) in the East River today still sends my stomach into a state of tailspin.
Many of our roadways hug the shoreline as well and swimming in pretty deep areas when you can't swim is a great way to end up gargle, gargled.
When NYC went bankrupt in the 70s many of the public pools went into a state of disrepair which also happened to coincide with the racial shift in many neighborhoods so there is also that.

I love when people talk about drug problems in the inner city. The ***gets manufactured and sold in the white middle-class suburbs. Hell, your best bet for a hook-up as a teenager is to find the local Catholic school full of rich kids.
Ironically, gentrification now means the suburbs are full of brown people and downtown is increasingly pale, so maybe things are changing.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
