I agree with this. Worst car I ever owned.
I sit on a floor mostly filled with product and marketing designers and I can tell you that it's 90% skinny jean wearing Prius owners.
I worked in VFX for awhile and most of those guys were neckbeards that looked forward to having some down time to play WoW.
You'd fit in well around here.

I just got back from Chik-fil-A and am eating a chicken sammich while I type this. It may have been prepared by a woman, it may have been prepared by a convicted felon with poor hygeine on a work release program... that's not the point.
The point is that I am going to step out of my heterocage and microaggress the shit out of things.
The 4Runner is a truck. Some of us grew up BEFORE the term "SUV" was coined so that every mother could buy a 6000 pound vehicle to drive on the grass of her kids' soccer practice, and back when "Crossover" meant going to Glory. We had a poo beige 1983 Land Cruiser, and the old man would say "get in the TRUCK, son, or I'll kick your ass."
Dating a woman much younger than you can be both a greatly enriching and infuriating experience. Literally most of my best lines are from movies from before they were born, or movies that have been remade with actors that are younger than some of my hemorrhoids.
Don't brag in a subforum how rich you are, because just about everyone here has close to 40k to drop on a truck, mod the hell out of it, and not give a crap if it gets scratched and dented driving up a mountain. Not mentioning some of us actually bought it with our own money, earned doing manly things like wrestling bears with our bare, callused manly hands to protect oil rig workers. I make necklaces of the teeth I knock out with my giant scarred fists (that were made to hold a sammich) and give them to potential mates to assert my alpha dominance.
Whatever terms I use to refer to the opposite sex are apparently un-PC. I will now go with "being of self-actualized valid feelings" as not to offend wrongskin, otherkin, or two space alien midgets posing as a man in a trench coat.
We all agree the 4Runner truck needs a V8.
While we may argue how many turds will fit into a swimming pool, we all quietly agree that filling a pool with one giant turd would be a symbol of pride for generations to come, and I'd probably name every child I have "Turd Ferguson" if I accomplished that.
Aaaand... finally, I am a car nerd. I don't give a damn what people think about my car/truck/SUV/gender affirmation activity vehicle. I like weird cars, be they a Zombie Apocalypse Unimog that tears down drive-through awnings or a 5 Series Wagon DIESEL, in brown, that you can't get in the US. All mods I make are to make the vehicle more useful to me (like a lift that is super comfy on road and is set up with a rake so that towing and hauling won't make the front end higher than the back). And, to be honest, I'd rather people say "what the **** is that?" than "nice car/truck/Biebermobile"

That's easy enough. Don't tell random strangers (or your new Date) your net worth.
what did you do in vfx? i'm a modeler/texture artist, previously an animator at a few smaller vfx boutiques. but that was quite a few years ago that i worked contracts.

My only disagreement I have with this and I understand was probably for simplistic reasons and make the calculation easier. But who the hell has access to a olympic swimming pool. A normal residential pool is usually between 20,000-40,000 gallons. Just saying your Olympic pool calculation is just ridiculous?!?!? :smash:
Also I would agree that you can call the 4runner a truck, because in fact it is on a truck frame, NOT a crossover, and sure as hell not a car.

Jesus. Poor folk. I make so much effing money that I have an olympic sized swimming pool. I feel bad for you if you actually have to swim in the pleb sized residential pool. Get on our level. :hat:

Because 95% of us are POG turds and the 5% either have to have their hands held or have a general in place to smack dicks so we can do our ****ing job!
Seriously... the AF needs to pull their heads out of their ass sometimes. But sometimes we excel in other areas. We did a course of fire that would normally take the Army 3 days to teach and perform. We did it in a single training day.

Almost made me shoot water out of my nose.
I rarely stray from the 3rd gen section, but sure am glad I came into this thread - I think I just found the love of my life...

I started out doing TD. I did some Nuke compositing and illustration/concept design too. I didn't like the long hours, so I opted for a different career path so that I could just work a normal eight hour day.

Ahhhh, when games were games and developers didn't have to hold players hands when making a game...:fencing:
p.s. This isn't really Brad, is it?
