It appears that I have at last discovered my Kryptonite. And unlike bullets, poison, blunt trauma, stab wound, mismanaged auto-erotic asphyxiation and Kryptonite, this one is a doozy. I’ve flown before, and while I usually self-coma myself into a state to survive the take-off procedure of fear, my flights were never that long. But flying for a solid four days within a week? That damn pressurised air cabin got to me, leaving me with a bloody nose, an eye red enough to count as a sharingan technique and sleepless nights. Although I blame the latter on the fat jerkass oppostie me who snored for twelve straight hours, sawing all kinds of logs. Bastard!

      Don’t joke. He posed naked for Marie Claire Magazine. Heard it like an hour ago on 702.

          Luckily I missed that tweet.

          At least it was for a good cause. Or so they would have us believe.

            Yeah, not sure how much of the money actually goes to the charity. I guess it would have to be for a good cause, otherwise they wouldn’t do it?

            I don’t think the Organ Donor Fund gets any money. It’s more of an awareness thing. It’s strange how many people don’t want to, or even know about organ donations. The waiting list is incredibly long.

          • matthurstrsa

            February 19, 2013 at 07:51

            Yeah, its weird. You’re dead, probably going to be cremated, why wouldn’t you donate your organs? People are selfish man.

          • CaptainNemo42

            February 19, 2013 at 08:14

            Yes, people are, but strangely enough, as far as I know the ultimate decision lies with your family members. We were fortunately enough a couple of years ago, but as far as I know, you have to make sure that those that you leave behind are aware of your wish to recycle yourself. Because even if you are registered, it remains their decision.

            Although, I could be wrong and that could have changed.

          • matthurstrsa

            February 19, 2013 at 08:22

            It would be very strange if they could go against your wishes after your death. Then they could just change your will as well?

          • CaptainNemo42

            February 19, 2013 at 08:28

            I think it’s more a matter of awareness but family members. Some might oppose it because I don’t think it is enforceable like in a will. Also, family members might take too long and before you know it, it’s too late. All because they didn’t know your wishes.

            The people from the Organ donors fund will obviously try to get hold of them as well. But the moment you blow out your last breathe, the time starts ticking down.

            February 19, 2013 at 08:33

            Thanks for that! I’m going to tell them all now I wish to have my organs donated. Its the right thing to do.

          • CaptainNemo42

            February 19, 2013 at 08:37

            Haha. In our family it not even an issue. Like I said, we were very lucky with a donation in our family a couple of years ago, and it kind of opens your mind a bit to these things.

            Remember to register if you are not registered. 🙂

          That’s just disgusting man. What is it with you and tentacles? Mine did not have any of that weird stuff in it. It was a rather romantic movie, involving a love octadecagon between her and 17 other men. It ended in a glorious bukkake.

      Because you have an unnatural obsession with Ostrich Eggs? Plus, I think you may be the only person in the world who knows where to find flat Ostrich Eggs. 🙂
