I am a chivalrous guy, I always hold open doors for women, I never sit on the subway, etc. I pride myself on it, it's a nice thing for guys to do. But fuckin' a, can't a fucking girl at least pay it back for fucking once, EVER?
- what a jerkCALLES
- me?monospaced
- if you are expecting payback, you are doing it for the wrong reasonlocustsloth
- maybe they are paying it back in small ways that you haven't noticed. nip slip or something.capn_ron
- Well, I had opened doors for three women, held the elevator for them, the whole time my hands were totally full...monospaced
- When we got to our floor, I graciously let them off the elevator first and they proceeded to the doors to the floor...monospaced
- Then they just walked in before me, not bothering to a) say thanks EVER, or b) hold the door for me.monospaced
- I had full hands, so I almost spilled my coffee trying to get the door open. I said "thanks" to them.monospaced
- i know what you mean mono, the wrong girls take and take, but the right one will give back.moldero
- I don't expect anything back for being chivalrous, but I do expect a fucking SHRED of politeness... lend a hand!monospaced
- oprah (walked in on my mom watching) she did this door test NYC vs LA, no one in NYC said thanksmoldero
- which was surprising because LA has the reputation for being stuck up or whatevermoldero
- this was like 20 years agomoldero
- LA gets a bad rap, but i find LA people a lot cooler than SF people in general, i blame the weathermoldero
- chivalry & equality can not exist together. women are our equals, they can open doors, they're empoweredalbums
- never been to NY. but that's kinda how i imagine people there are like... lolpango
- i wouldn't never not open a door for a ladyscarabin
- yes it probably is because you are in NY. i waited tables for a while in greenwich village and noticed people i worked with were rude as fuck and still got tips. i decided to be myself, attentive and pretty much a good waitress. my tips were great and the cooks loved me. others were looking at me like "this bitch!" lol i wasn't kissing ass i was just saying please and thank you. i guess it's something some people struggle with or just never learned life skills.sea_sea

- Mono. If you want politeness, move to canada. people here are sometime too fucking polite its annoying.pango
- i'd read this but i'm not. just wanted to lol @ nipslipJG_LB
- Just to be clear, I am born and raised Californian, so I'm not some rude New Yorker. But I don't think ti's just a city thing.monospaced
- So, all you women out there, if you see a guy with his hands full and you can help, open the fucking door for him.monospaced
- And if a guy holds a door for you, lets you through the elevator first, etc, please say thanks or at least smile.monospaced

i want to paint this pattern (the triangular op art in black)
onto this thing, which is natural canvas.
it needs to be able to withstand the heat of direct sunlight and be able to fold away and be stored for long periods of time without sticking to itself and smudging all over. it also needs to not peel off.
anybody have any idea what kind of paint i should use for this? maybe screenprinting ink?
- How many colors? Just b/w? I'd say spray paint.
dasohr - i want to do just the triangular op-art pattern in the above pic. that'd be a fuckton of masking... spraypaint would have the properties i need though...scarabin
- properties i need though...scarabin
- Masking will be inevitable. Montana Paints will do the job, although I'm almost certain that rustoleum will do it too.dasohr
- i would say screen printing ink, but not thickautoflavour

why are the comments to shit on the internet usually more funny than the content?
- if you weren't so damn nice I would have said "Fuck You Candy" in this comment. :)capn_ron
- So true. YouTube comments are often ace and reddit is just a sea of funny comments!Hombre_Lobo
- scarabin0
nevermind, doing this instead. now i just have to figure out how to print that art onto the canvas. giant screenprint maybe? hmm...
- Looks like you're on another planet. You get around! :DZOOP
- i like the whiteinteliboy
- stencil and spray paint.pango
- might just have to be a stencil. biggest i've ever done...scarabin
- he might not be on another planet, but definitely another plane of consciousnessmonospaced
- You should rig up something "illuminating" in some way. Anything sustainable?monospaced
- yeah it's got a full csound-responsive, color-changing LED lighting system. runs on solar power. has sound, tooscarabin
- also just got a sweet ass laser light show i'll project on the area in front of it from the dj boothscarabin

mono- i threw the lighting up real quick for a festival last year so it's kinda sloppy but you can see the strips i used in this video
for 2013 i'm gonna have those strips inside and out and on every edge
- ZOOP0
scarabin, here's a possible variation for achieving the image you wanted:
1: Use either glass or plexiglass, cover one side with wide clear tape.
2: Transfer the image by either tracing from a paper print set underneath, or easier for large scale,would be to simply draw the image directly on the tape.
3: Cut the image out with an exacto, then sandblast until you reach the desired depth. Peel tape away.You can either drill holes in plexiglass or frame either material for hanging, similar to the hanging art in that video ^ and your use of lighting systems makes this what could be a cool part of your exhibit. You can outsource the sandblasting for minimal cost btw. :D
- scarabin0
that's a cool idea. lighting the edges would give it a cool effect. my only issue is cutting this design out of tape... or anything to make a stencil, for that matter
- i feel like i'm gonna have to just have large format screenprinting screens made (or take a shot at it myself) as a lot of the strength of this mark i feel comes from the brushstroke detailsscarabin
- of this mark i feel comes from the brushstroke detailsscarabin
- Yeah, getting the stencil to look like that would be a bear. What about inverting and printing on transparency?ZOOP
- then projected on the inside of the pyramid, to view from outside after nightfall?ZOOP
- that'd look cool projected onto the ground, tooscarabin
- good ideascarabin
- I have a feeling you'll come up with something very cool. Your work up in lights, sweet!ZOOP
- something to consider if projecting on the ground, if mounted to peak, stretch image to compensate for angular distortionZOOP
- distortionZOOP
- can't you print this on canvas and then sew it on? Aren't there archival inks they use now in the large format printers?capn_ron
- ummm ya ditch the stencil idea...pango
- why not attempt some hand painting on canvass? (and sew it on as someone else suggested)sine

- bigger than they offer... like 6'x3'? i'm taking measurements this weekendscarabin
- LOL @ them two.pango
- i'm requesting quotes from large format screenprinters right now... i expect it to be in the $200-350 range but hope for $100-200scarabin
- ron, i just talked to our production manager and he says our large format printers here could do it... i may end up using your solutionscarabin
- nice. those inks hold up well too. not forever, but if the plotter is big enough, it should be good for you.capn_ron

i wasn't approved for a conventional loan, only the fha, so theres no need for me to put down 20%, which according to the bank adds a little more than $200 to my payment.
