      <title>Friday Night Loser Thread: Minimum Required Effort Edition.</title>

&lt;p&gt;When I came over to this country, I was a pretty applied student. I went to the 8th grade without knowing any english, and still got mostly A's. Which says a lot about the quality of the education here, or maybe I'm just a genius.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then I discovered the idea of "minimum effort". As in, doing what you have to do to just pass, and then fuck it. For me, that entailed not doing any homework but doing well in test so I could pass the class.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PTR crowd is fairly well educated. So to all the slackers underachievers like me, this is your thread.&amp;nbsp; Insightful comments? Fuck it. Funny jokes that are smart? Fuck it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is the minimum required effort thread, time to bring your C game!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Because Scalibrine wearing that headband looks like the sort of guy you invite to play some pick up basketball, and he takes it all serious and starts calling charges, traveling and 3 second violations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;75 words is a limit that I must complete in order to publish this. So I have to keep typing, just move along, nothing to see here. Nothing at all, just keep moving folks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We all have ideas of what other PTR members look like. For me those ideas depend on people's avatar, so ATS looks like a grumpy but wise old Pop to me, SiMA like a smartass smirking Manu, and SinCitySpur like a sex crazed Quagmire. Maybe you all have your own ideas, thinking all the girls are hot, or all the guys handsome.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well, it's time to destroy some illusions. Let's put some pics of what we really look like and don't worry, no matter how we look on the outside, we're all ugly on the inside:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As some of you already know, a couple of weeks ago my signficant other came from the hellhole that is Chicago to sunny Southern California to visit yours truly. We did some sightseeing, among other stuff...And we went to the Aquarium of the Pacific, as we're both nerdy fishkeepers. Here's some pics I took at the aquarium, hope the unwashed masses likes them. Also, don't expect any scientific names, I know about saltwater fish about as much as I know about basketball.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Click on the pics if you want a higher-res image.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know, this is a bird, not a fish. In one part of the aquarium they have a bird exhibit. You can buy some sort of overpriced extremely super duper special nectar at the entrance, and when you go inside the bird go crazy for it and land on your hand. This is a bird on my girl's hand. (Yeah, eventually they did poop on her)&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93422/img_0389.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93422/img_0389_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0389_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;via &lt;a href="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc86/Hipuks/Aquarium%20of%20the%20Pacific/IMG_0389.jpg"&gt;i218.photobucket.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Probably my favorite picture of them all.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93424/img_0418.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93424/img_0418_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0418_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone needs to come out of the closet...&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93426/img_0332.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93426/img_0332_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0332_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How big is this fish?...&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93428/img_0342.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93428/img_0342_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0342_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Big enought to eat rip this kid's head off. ( I wish I could say I took that picture on purpose, in order to show scale, but it was an accident really, I cursed the kid under my breath before I realized how the picture came out)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93430/img_0349.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93430/img_0349_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0349_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you know that the plural for fish is fish? And fishes is used when you're referring to more than one species of fish? Well, now you know.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93432/img_0361.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93432/img_0361_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0361_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I don't know why Red Lobster goes to the trouble of setting up such an authentic environment.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93434/img_0362.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93434/img_0362_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0362_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mysteriously named Sawfish.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93436/img_0445.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93436/img_0445_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0445_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the biggest mofo at the aquarium. This thing weighs about 300 pounds. In fishkeeping circles this weight is called "lean Shaq".&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93438/img_0449.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93438/img_0449_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0449_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Awesome little pufferfish.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93440/img_0467.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93440/img_0467_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0467_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know how this picture of the San Antonio Spurs playing defense got mixed up with all the other pics.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93442/img_0477.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93442/img_0477_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0477_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think they're playing zone in this one.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93444/img_0486.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93444/img_0486_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0486_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I threw a Clownfish down the toilet just like in Finding Nemo so it could escape to freedom. Unfortunately the fish died a horrible death due to chlorine and ammonia poisoning.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93446/img_0521.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93446/img_0521_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0521_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nemo's less well known brother. He gets stopped by the police a lot more.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93448/img_0523.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93448/img_0523_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0523_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is one of the coolest things at the aquarium. They have a shallow pool where you can pet sharks and rays. The rules is to only use two fingers( that's what she said). So yeah, that's right, I petted a motherfucking shark.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93450/img_0438.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93450/img_0438_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0438_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another awesome thing. This is a shark's egg. They put a clean film over it so you can see the actual baby shark as it develops. It's even better in person because you can see the little shark move sometimes.&amp;nbsp; It would be even awesome-er if they did this to a human.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93452/img_0527.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93452/img_0527_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0527_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Subtlety is not this fish's forte.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93454/img_0511.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93454/img_0511_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0511_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish I had something funny to say.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93456/img_0516.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93456/img_0516_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0516_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fucking awesome coral reef. My dream would be to go to Georgia's Aquarium, the biggest in the world. Of course, they don't accept gay fish.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93458/img_0515.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93458/img_0515_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0515_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I bet watching this while being on an acid trip while listening to Dark Side of the Moon while watching the Wizard of Oz while watching a planetarium's Floyd laser show is the trippiest shit ever.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93462/img_0541.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com/imported_assets/93462/img_0541_medium.jpg" alt="Img_0541_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What the hell happened to the game thread Matt had put up? Did it dissapear?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In case the thread doesn't magically reappear maybe we can use this post as a game thread. One that will forever be remembered as the crappiest game thread post in the history of PtR.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;75 words is such a difficult number to reach, one that at first you think it will be easy. But no, it is not. Razzmatazz.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No, not that Duncan, Arne Duncan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So the whole point of this was to cruelly dupe you into reading this? Not exactly. Arne Duncan, according to Wikipedia, "&amp;nbsp; From 1987 to 1991, Duncan played professional basketball in Australia with the Eastside Spectres of the NBL &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arne_Duncan#cite_note-2"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, and while there worked with children who were wards of the state."&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, I started thinking...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bruce Bowen: Department of Defense&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tim Duncan: Treasury Secretary ( Due to his banking expertise)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tony Parker: Embassador to France or the UN ( The first because he's a Frenchie, the second because he might talk about the horrors of Darfur through the art form of rapping)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Michael Finely: Supreme Court Nominee ( Thus becoming the oldest of the current Supreme Court Justices)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Manu Ginobili: President of the World ( A position he created after first changing the constitution by traveling back in time and beating the founding fathers in a game of five-on-one, thus becoming President of the United States in a landslide in which he won every state, and then creating the Association of Countries Under the Rule of Manu, or ACURM)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Matt Bonner: Head of NASA&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;George Hill: Press Secretary ( Using his charms to pass Manu's agenda)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Roger Mason: Air Force General ( Involved in long range bombing projects)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ime Udoka: Chief of Staff ( After beating Rahm Emanuel in a death match)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fabricio Oberto: Chief Advisor ( Manu's right hand man)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kurt Thomas: Secretary of State ( Using his stare to terrorize the heads of rogue states, and pretty much everyone person who dares look into the black holes he has for eyes)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ian Mahinmi: Department of Health ( No one said you had to be qualified....)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anthony Tolliver : Vice President ( With Manu's personality and leadership, this office is once again the most boring)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jacque Vaughn: Veteran's Affairs Secretary&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I was going to put this in the Fan Shot section, but I don't think anyone reads those. I think it says a lot about our Tim Duncan that every time The Onion makes fun of him is for being too nerdy/ intellectual, instead of say...for having a penchant for hookers. Also, being that he's not really a big celebrity like other basketball players, it makes me think that perhaps someone in The Onion is a Spurs/Duncan fan. Enjoy:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This has absolutely nothing to do with the Spurs. Just getting that out of the way. Anyway, since the offseason has been pretty slow. I figures I'd put a pic of some of my fish tanks. Because what can be more exciting than the dangerous and extreme world of freshwater fishkeeping?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My 20 gallon tank. Those all natural plants. Just as with boobs, there's really no comparison between the real thing and silicone.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;via &lt;a href="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc86/Hipuks/Tanks%20Pics/IMG_9865.jpg"&gt;i218.photobucket.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is a Bamboo Shrimp. This guys is a fervent believer, praying to the FSM for food in this picture.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23447/img_9769.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23447/img_9769_medium.jpg" alt="Img_9769_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;via &lt;a href="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc86/Hipuks/Tanks%20Pics/IMG_9769.jpg"&gt;i218.photobucket.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Male adult Platy. I had to take all the females out because they were breeding like crazy, so this guy must be going out of his mind.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23449/img_9817.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23449/img_9817_medium.jpg" alt="Img_9817_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My 10G tank. The driftwood in the middle is a little phallic looking. No I'm not gay. No I don't have anything against gays, in my state CA they can marry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23451/img_9838.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23451/img_9838_medium.jpg" alt="Img_9838_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Neon Tetras with some Ghost Shrimp in the picture. Neons are pretty flashy, if they were humans, they'd probably drive Escalades with spinning chrome rims.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23453/img_9722.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23453/img_9722_medium.jpg" alt="Img_9722_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;via &lt;a href="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc86/Hipuks/Tanks%20Pics/IMG_9722.jpg"&gt;i218.photobucket.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Female Betta. If she were a human, she'd probably be the chick at high school who asks, Why are you so weird? Before returning her attention to her glittery nails. No I don't have issues.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23455/img_9761.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="photo" src="http://assets.sbnation.com:/imported_assets/23455/img_9761_medium.jpg" alt="Img_9761_medium" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;via &lt;a href="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc86/Hipuks/Tanks%20Pics/IMG_9761.jpg"&gt;i218.photobucket.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well, that's all. I think I just destroyed whatever shred of respect I had in this site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh, and yes. I do have a girlfriend. I met her on a fish forum. I'm not even kidding&lt;/p&gt;
