I'm 99% sure Furley is just recycling The Office storylines.

i watched... maybe... 3 minutes of the pilot and tapped out.

though, now that you say this it makes me think. 98% of this guy vocabulary is recycled movie & tv quotes. or reminding you of movie & tv quotes.  so maybe this is some sort of performance art thing he's doing like a modern day Andy Kaufman.

the idea that he's pulling a running gag on people would definitely explain the condescending smirk and barely disguised look of amusement on his face when he starts talking to..... anyone

Perhaps he's a Bob & Tom fan and takes KennyTarmac a bit too seriously.

You'd know better than I on this. I just hate changing planes for what would be a 2.5 hour direct flight. Being hard-headed AND lazy is my cross to bear

Eh, I think people are over blowing the traffic.  I would much prefer a direct flight, honestly.

 
ALERT:  I just read half of the last page of the Trump thread (have a bunch of waiting time at the airport and thought I could handle reading it - turns out I can't), and there was a Henry Ford post in there an hour ago!  Welcome back, GBHF!! :excited:

Also, no one uses umbrellas in the PNW.  Turns out there are alternative methods of moisture protection.  :shrug:

this is true, but the type of rain there is a lot different than what you get in other places I think. PNW gets a bad rap for their rain...it's rarely a huge downpour like some of the storms in the midwest.

anyway, I think umbrellas are annoying but I use them on occasion.

All good points.  Maybe that's the disconnect between GM and Floppy on this.

Thanks.  I've spent the last nine days slipping into the more accessible online havens of the new nationalist movement.  Ignorance of these areas is dangerous, as we all just learned.  I don't know how active I'll be here, but I desperately needed to vent a bit.  

 
So......the twins apparently have foot and mouth disease, which is highly contagious and there ain't much to do for it other than keep them hydrated and full of Motrin.  Wife was supposed to go out of town for the night with her friends in Hood River for wine tasting and fun.  She says she will cancel, but I'm telling her to go.  She needs to go for her sanity because I know how much it sucks to be home with them all day long and I also know how much it sucks to be married to me.  Part of keeping them hydrated is nursing, which I can't do apparently, even though my massive moobs look like they are full of milk.  We've never used formula and the mere suggestion of buying it sends my wife into some weird craze, so I shut up because even though I'm dumb, I've learned which battles to wage in this marriage.  All this is to say I hope you all have a better weekend than I will have because the way it's shaping up ain't real good.

coxsackie.

probably the most miserable I've ever seen my miserable #1 son. IIRC, it goes fast- but it's a couple of days of hell for them and you until the huge fever breaks and the sores minimize. 

does the wife pump? do you?

She hasn't pumped in a long time and honestly, I think she is more than ready to wean (ween?) them off the boobs for good.  But they lunge for her boobs the way I sometimes do as they are really spectacular and it's kind of cute to see them go on the attack for nutrition but at some point, it has to end otherwise it's going to be very weird.  

Also, Leo climbed out of his crib last night and landed with a giant thud.  Get snipped, kids.

:lol:  because really... you need it just a little worse this weekend. but he'll probably never try to do that again- and again- and again- and again-...

 
The thing I was most looking forward to today was picking Hazel up from her school at 3:30.  I've never picked her up from her new school and she was really excited today that I was going to do that so she could introduce me to her friends.  Even if I can't convince my wife to go out of town I'm going to try and convince her to let me pick Hazel up from school.  Smiles are in short supply these days and this is one I could really use.

 
just got a call from the school nurse. somehow, 5yo floppinha and 9yo floppinho collided heads on the playground. 5yo went to the nurse for the third time this year, 9yo has only been to the nurse with scarlet fever in kindergarten (his last school was like something out of a dickens novel).

I guess I'm just happy they're actually playing together... or close enough to bonk heads. but I'll be hearing about this all weekend. 5yo is in a stage where tears are plentiful and injustices abound... I WANTED TO OPEN THE DOOR, NOT HIM (tears). I WANT YOU TO HEAR MY PIANO PIECE FIRST, NOT HIM (tears). its' a stage, right? right?

When I lived in "big" city and walked everywhere, I had a nice LL Bean rain jacket with a hood.  Umbrellas just get turned inside-out by the wind and poke people in the eye.  Not to mention only fairies use them.

Your 5 yo sounds a lot like my 4 yo.  I think it might be the gender, GB.  

My wife is going to stay home after all.  She told me that Hazel started crying because she thought by staying home I wouldn't pick her up from school.  So I will be picking her up today as that got me right in the feelers.

that's a good wife/mom.... too bad for her weekend though. 

I grew up with a brother, so other than ex-girlfriends where I learned everything was my fault, I'm not used to this girl stuff. but I am getting that everything is her big brother's fault- so at least I have him to throw under the bus on a regular basis.

hope the kids feel better soon- that coxsackie flat out sucked for jr.

But it doesn't really "rain" up there, right? It "mists."  This is what every, single person I know in the area tells me, anyway, while they're busy dressing in 8 layers of Gortex, and hats, and boots and still manage to come home wet as hell.

I would still move there tomorrow if finances permitted it.  I would also use an umbrella if circumstances dictated it. *middle finger to the anti-umbrella establishment*
