    Vegetarian food that does not suck

    I cook vegetarian meals regularly. The trick is to start with hearty complementary vegetables (which I usually get from the local farmer's market). Zucchini with almonds, eggplant stuffed with mushrooms, red peppers stuffed with saffron rice, ratatouille, etc. I'll try to find some recipes.

    Stuff I can't afford on Ebay; aka blowing up your own spot; aka a kick in the nuts

    There's a Margiela leather biker jacket I saw on there. Retail was something like $3000; even at 75% off ($875), I cannot afford.

    Chelsea Boots good for clubbing

    As for shoes, I don't think them getting stepped on is a big deal. Just polish them once a week and you'll be fine. I'm a total gadabout and bar fly and shoes I've worn to the club for the past 7 years still look great with this method.

    Chelsea Boots good for clubbing

    I really don't see the point in buying cheaper clothes for going out. Depends. Bars, clubs, and restaurants are still smoking establishments here. Imagine how wonderful your clothes will smell after four hours of cigarette smoke, sweat, and booze; at a minimum, your dry cleaning bill won't be...

    My 1st Raw Denim & Buyer's Remorse

    (a) The jeans will stretch out. (b) After a few wears (breaking in period), they'll be super soft and comfortable. (c) Wash them when they're smelly; they're just jeans. People here go several months without a wash 'cause they're fastidious about fadez. I think in a couple of weeks you'll be...

    Getting rid of TV altogether?

    I haven't watched television in probably 10 years (I'm 28). Best decision I made. Frankly, it's an input with little or no output. As for benefits, you'd be surprised how much of a time sink it is. I now have more time to read, party, get laid, etc. I've found I'm also more creative.

    Reduce (tailor) waist size of raw denim?

    You could, but it's really easy for jeans to go pear-shaped. Just throw them inside out in the dryer (with a sheet of Bounce in the back pocket for freshness) and they'll shrink back down again.

    Doing things alone

    I'm quite the gadabout and go out/do something practically every night of the week. I do some of these things alone just because of the prohibitive organizational effort involved in getting people to meet up. Even when hitting up bars or clubs, I'll just tell friends where I'm gonna be. If they...

    pull this hair off?

    My hair's about as long as that. Keep in mind, depending on the texture of your hair, there may be a certain amount of upkeep involved. Like you can't just wash and go. For instance, I have to blow dry my hair, lest I end up with a nappy Jewish 'fro.

    First Date Jitters

    Here is a tip. When you first meet a girl out on a date, give her a (casual) hug hello. This will start physical contact and will immeasurably put you at ease.

    budget hotels in LA and San F

    I was just in SF and stayed at the Metro Hotel. Cheap, albeit very small rooms, and conveniently located to almost anything cool. It was like $77/night. You can also check out Yelp.com, particularly for SF; it's loaded with solid reviews.

    Decreasing/Reducing Jeans Waist Size??? ::Tailor::

    Altering the waist of a pair of jeans is very tricky business; they could go pear-shaped _very_ easily. I'd say try to shrink them in the dryer (although they'll stretch out again), wear a belt, or buy new jeans.
