9. develop a regular online mint rubbing routine



if you're a dedicated mint rubber, then you surely know how to rub mint online - at home, at work or at school, fire up internet explorer and lose yourself on the web. my, my, time flies when you're having fun.

got some hours to kill at work? a few days? a few years? first make sure your office is connected to the net (and if not, well, you can always bring this issue up in your next management meeting - after all, this is the information economy, isn't it? we need to be online, and all our competitors already are). in fact, this could very well be your most important criteria when choosing a job, young mintrubber.

next, start browsing. if you run out of ideas, or even if you don't, allow us to make a number of suggestions to improve your regular browsing routine.

first, there are sites that need to be visited daily. start your day with wulffmorgenthaler.com. wulff and morgenthaler may very well be 100% pure assholes, but their shit is pretty damn good. the site is updated daily with a new comic strip, so that's a pretty enlightening way to set the mood for the entire day.

next, continue with grigore.org (romanian only). grigore seems to be on vacation at the moment, but he usually updates regularly and, i'm telling you, this person knows his shit. try to conceal your smiles (and, at times, insane laughter), as coworkers will grow suspicious.

another good thing to do on a regular (daily) basis, is to check out this site and see if it's november. that's one valuable piece of information that will surely be needed at some point in the course of the day. just when you though, man, the year is almost over and no fucking november, then, one day, it hits you - finally, it sure is november. this site is updated daily.

so now then. you start your day with a review of the above mentioned sites; you check your email, perhaps look at some porn (our recommendations - worldsex, and pornoromania for some local flavor), and even take care of some work. what next?

lowbrow.com. lowbrow is a unique site in that it provides enjoyment for variable lengths of time, from a couple of minutes to hours, or even days, without ever becoming annoying. if you've tried it, you know what i'm talking about; if not, give it a try, stick with it and keep hitting reload for about 10 minutes (don't get discouraged after the first couple of moments - cool shit is guaranteed to come), and you, too, will know what i'm talking about.

there's also a slighter more refined version of lowbrow called notproud.com. the improvement here is that confessions are organized - pick your favorite sin and read random, anonymous confessions about it. anyway, lowbrow or notproud - check one or check both, but do it daily. said activity will surely widen your horizons.

so that's a daily routine for you. next, there are sites that need to be checked weekly. monday is post a secret day (the site updates on sundays). the idea is similar to lowbrow, but confessions are depicted in a graphical format, so the site adds a whole new dimension to the entire concept. updates aren't very large, so the carefully selected doses will surely enlighten.

next there's the best page in the universe. i've been following this site for a couple of years now, and i have yet to find a site that provides more value to the reader. there are no regular updates here, just a couple or so each month, but i recommend you check it weekly so as not to miss any new stuff.

moving along, there's the monthly update of our very own mintrubbing.org. here, updates are posted online around the 25th of each month, but you probably already know that (if not, what the hell? have you been living under a rock for the past five years?).

next, there's a batch of sites that need to be checked out at irregular intervals, when the aforementioned selection of sites just won't cut it. one of my personal favorites is the romanian stencil archive. you can also see how world extinction is going on the kill everyone project site (and give a helping hand, while you're at it), read the insanely cool dullest blog or check out some other random site from our cool links page.

we stop here for now, but, remember! developing a healty online mint rubbing routine is a must for any serious rubber. pick from our suggestions above, or add your own selection to the mix - whatever you do, do not neglect this issue, or it will haunt you for years to come.


that's it for today. now close this window and come back tomorrow for you next dose.
