GM's Thread About Everything/GM's Thread About Nothing (42 Viewers)

Should clarify that I filed an uncontested divorce with my attorney. She agreed not to hire one.  Had to have her sign off on this. But I set her up very very well.  
That's our gynocentric society - women will destroy a father's relationship with his children if she doesn't get the payout she wants.

 
I don't know. That's how she introduced herself. It's an upper-middle class district so...extra money?

Kid told the teacher at recess. Teacher asked all 3 to go see 'Mrs Anderson.'  They go to her office, she talks to them, then calls us and then my daughter gets home I said 'honey, I need to talk with you for a minute.'  She says 'Yeah, I know. Mrs Anderson said I should talk to my parents.'  

Her and I talk, she's calm and not freaked out, I'm calm (inside I'm thinking this is a huge overreaction but whatever). 

She says 'Well I was worried you'd be mad.'  

'No honey. It was an accident. People are just very careful and cautious when things like this happen. It's not a big deal.  By the way, what does mrs anderson do at the school?'

'Oh she deals with harassment and bullying and stuff like that.'

:shrug:  
floppinho would be soooo psyched to get tickled on his penis by a girl... no way he's reporting that ####.

 
22 year old is on her way.   She was clearly never taught not to tickle the penis.

By the way, "Tickle the Penis" is my Pet Shop Boys cover band.

That's what he intimated, although he did not specifically say "profit."  Regardless, how much could he legitimately be spending on rancid, old, peanut oil, some corn kernels and sugar?  By the look of the kettle/tent, those babies have been in the family for generations so his overhead for the month is probably under a hundred bucks.  And I'll bet most of that is probably spent on the packaging.

i'm doing life wrong
You and me both apparently. :unsure:    Never thought I'd be jealous of an elderly, Southern, kettle corn "chef", but after 7+ months without steady employment.....here we are.

Top 4 sexiest movie dance sequences:

1. Emily Rajikowski - "we are your friends" pool party scene 

2. Jessica alba - "sin city" bar dancer scene 

3. Debra winger - "urban cowboy" bull riding thing 

4. Grabielle Anwar - "scent of a woman" ballroom dance 
This must be a joke.

Where is the Salma Hayek stage number with the snake in From Dusk 'Til Dawn?

Edit: Oh, I see that it is not a joke, per se, but rather an Abe post. Carry on.

Yeah, something like that. We never had community property. She got her stuff, I got my stuff. Well, I didn't get the roof I put on her house, which I paid for with a 401k withdrawal.

I really am the worst. :lmao:

I seem to remember telling you that informal negotiations would just establish a baseline of what you were willing to give up, and that she would then take that to a lawyer who would use it as a starting point for negotiations.  Maybe I'm thinking of someone else, but I remember thinking at the time that working with your ex to hash things out directly was a bad idea.

Don't try to do anything else involving your children or your divorce without an attorney.   It will just make it worse.   Every time I know someone that ignores this advice, they end up shelling out tens of thousands of dollars more than they should, losing their kids and ending up in fights that last for years.

Lawyer up then mediate a settlement.   You need to find some leverage, as well.

Sorry for the complete lack of empathy in this post, but I'm a lawyer.  I don't have a heart--not even a cow heart, like HF.
Where were you six years ago?

 
Watching the World Series reminded me of this:  I grew up a Dodgers fan.  Went to the '74 World Series against the A's.   

Years later at sixth grade camp, I met this girl that went to a school near mine.  Ended up kissing her, which was a big deal in sixth grade, and we exchanged numbers.  We had this cab service that would take you anywhere in our town for $1 per person during the day, so a lot of us used it to go to movies and such.   I asked this girl to see a movie with me, and we arranged to have me get a cab and come get her for the movies.   I rang the doorbell and her dad answered the door.   I was awestruck, first by his handlebar mustache, then by realizing who was behind it.   Her dad was Rollie Fingers.    I stammered out something about being a huge baseball fan and watching the A's win the World Series.  He told me if I didn't take care of his daughter and get her home by dark he'd kill me.

I agree.  Moo.

 
Anyone else hoping for an epic collapse?
I sort of am, peripherally.  I don't care much about baseball anymore.....but I used to rage-hate on the Cubs for a very long time.  Old habits die hard, I suppose.  I wouldn't be that sad if any Cub fan over the age of 40 never got to see a WS in their lifetime(sorry, Bill Murray.  I love you, but....Cubs.)

Freaking Cubs.  Hated so many of the players on those late 80's and early 90s teams.  I'd drive a car onto a crowded sidewalk to run over Mark Grace or Sandberg.  Jerome Walton can eat a bag of ##### too.   I will say, Andre Dawson was the man.  I just think of him as an Expo though.

I think that might be true in some cases but I will go to my grave defending my ex-wife for putting our sons first. At no point did she threaten or even hint at my time with them being in peril. Nor do I ever suspect her of poisoning any wells. Made it easy to be generous in our divorce agreement.

Who filed for divorce?

 
Who filed for divorce?
I filed an uncontested divorce, which we both agreed would be the most affordable option and best for all.  We probably stayed married 3 years too long and both knew it.  It's helped us establish a good co-parent relationship in the aftermath.  Dealing with Coop's dibetus for example - it's been nice working together amicably to get him the best care and split costs evenly.  There's no old grudges or hostility getting in the way.  It's not perfect, we've butted heads a few times since 2008, but hearing other tales of divorce, I count my blessings.

 
lol

"So, let me get this straight: I can make you watch the kids most of the time, be rid of you quickly, and in exchange you're going to give me more money?  What's the catch?  I mean, where and when do I sign?  You have a pen?  Give me a pen.  No, now.  Pen.  Go."

She will probably read this today and laugh.

 
@Abraham Would the roster at Perfect 10 be better on a Thursday night or Saturday around lunchtime? I'll hang up and listen. 

 
Also, #######s that put their laptop bags in the above storage space on full flights are worse than whatever melon it is we hate this week. 
Basically asking for an "accidental' shoulder to the berries when they're retrieving it at the gate. 

 
Yeah, don't share it or anything.
You asked for it.

That's pretty good writing for a cat.

Wait....was this the cat talking?  Or was that you replying to the cat?   I'm confused.   So, even your friends' cats constantly move too?  Am I reading that right?  

Also, "Mid-Rise Senior Building Cat" sounds like a so-bad-it-may-be-good web series set in your neighborhood.  (Followed by new episodes of "Bodega Cat", naturally, which I'm guessing no-one in here would watch, since they don't know what a bodega is.)

Cats don't talk, dummy.   The cat sent the email.  

 
I think I know what PMS is like becuase I've been an emotional wreck all day. Knowing how happy  that so many people in my life are. Knowing how melancholy those same people are becuase they aren't able to share this moment with the ones that have left us.

Conversations with coworkers, text messages with friends and family , my Facebook feed, news stories. Just a surreal blend of joy and remorse and it's everywhere

All because of baseball. Stupid, sexy baseball
