I was sure he was talking about chipotle. 

I was talking about shoes

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Still the most accurate movie about teaching ever.  

What about Summer School? 

 

[facook]

Guess I lucked out. I hated my PE teacher most of my HS years, but all he ever did was never shut up about fishing/hunting.  Turned out to be not such a bad guy.  Plus, his daughter was smokin'.

Now, the girls PE teacher?  Pretty much your textbook "Owns her own security business" lesbian, who many of my female classmates claimed were sure was not-so-furtively scoping them out on a daily basis.

To which 16/17-year-old 5-ish said something to the tune of "Well, yeah.  So am I and most of the rest of the guys here."  (Upon reflection, 16/17-year-old 5-ish was sort of a nozzle, but Jody Golinsky was as hot as Satan's balls.  I'm not made out of stone (Hey, Jody, if you're reading this!))

Satan'sBalls?

 

[mr roboto]

Someone said I looked like Colin Hanks. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. 

 

[Binky The Doormat]

Satan'sBalls?

Seriously 5-ish, is this the same girl?  

 

[Henry Ford]

He bagged an attractive redhead as a wife. Can't be all bad. 

 

[Henry Ford]

It does mean you probably have goofy ears and a fivehead though.  Sorry.

 

[mr roboto]

I do have a large forehead. I think my ears are normal. 

Same lady also said I look like a young Tom Hanks. 

 

[RedmondLonghorn]

I'm sensing a theme here.

 

[mr roboto]

I'm sensing a theme here.

She's obsessed with me/and/or men from the Hanks family. 

 

[5-ish Finkle]

Seriously 5-ish, is this the same girl?  

No, but I guess I should have known someone would get all stalkerific when I dropped a slave name.

Thankfully, I wasn't stupid enough to use her current surname.

 

[facook]

C'mon dude I was just being funny.  Jody with a "y" didn't even come up.

 

[5-ish Finkle]

I figured as much, but I was talking more to myself.  It was a bad idea.

 

[RedmondLonghorn]

Oh, I know.  I was talking more to myself.  It was a bad idea.

I know the real names of half the people here. 

You can trust me, buddy.

I've long claimed that I could win Olympic gold in both parallel parking and packing a suitcase (visual evidence available upon request), but tonight I've decided that my third special talent is white-person mastery of chopsticks.  I can get one tiny shred of carrot or a single grain of rice, sure, but my crowning achievement tonight might be the single slimy peanuts covered in Pad See Ew sauce.  

I hereby challenge each of you to a parallel parking, packing, or white-person chopsticks duel.

 

[Reg Lllama of Brixton]

What about Summer School? 

Well, no.

 

[Reg Lllama of Brixton]

Colin Hanks once rode to the prom in my brother's car.

 

[Reg Lllama of Brixton]

Actually true.

Did you offer to paint a smiley face on her ### and call her Wilson?

Single slimy peanuts is the dating app I've been working on.

Sounds like an excellent triathlon opportunity. I can park and pack like a mother, but only so-so with the stix.

I worked at a Chinese restaurant for years.  Hell it even had "chopsticks" in the name.

The majority of Asian people that worked there used forks...just like god intended.

I accept your white-person chopsticks challenge.

 

[the rover]

Packing is overrated.  

 

[krista4]

@Grace Under Pressure, I like the triathlon idea.

Gauntlet thrown.

ETA:  From about three years ago.  I might need some training to get back into my peak form.

 

[krista4]

My wife might have a claim to white person chopsticks mastery also. We have some. When you come over for dinner soon I'll make something chopsticks appropriate. 

I accept your white-person chopsticks challenge.

All right.  I'm up for these challenges.

 

[RedmondLonghorn]

Watching the replay of the NCAA FB CG on ESPNU. Clemson just won it and the shots panning the Bama fans in the crowd make me so happy.

 

[RedmondLonghorn]

All right.  I'm up for these challenges.

I also am very good with chopsticks.

 

[krista4]

You should do a GMTAN housewarming party. I want to see your kitchen.

I will bring my travel chopsticks.  

Don't be intimidated, guys, but yes, I carry travel chopsticks with me.

I want to see my kitchen too.

That's BTO. They were Canada's answer to ELP. Their biggest hit was TCB. That was how we talked in the seventies. We didn't have a moment to spare.

I am on vacation with the family. First trip away from home with multiple kids. 

You know what I need to take with me on vacation? A dad. So someone else can be the family porter, chauffeur, and doer of all the ###### things. 

Makes you really think about polyamory.

And that cleared the way for the Alan Parsons Project, which I believe was some sort of hovercraft.

same episode?

Sometimes a cockandballs is just a cockandballs. 

Thanks Captain Obvious.

I went through this last year. It all works out in the end. Spoiler alert

Most of my family is in Hawaii for my brother's wedding.  I'm not going for various reasons but mainly there is no way I could take time off 3.5 weeks before school ends.

My other brother, who is usually rather Ned Flandersish, texted me "after 30 hours of 'family' I'm starting to think that mom may be right about you being the smart one".

I got you covered. After all that crap you just take off and say "I'm going to the store" then you go to the bar.

 

[Henry Ford]

Thanks Captain Obvious.

That's Lieutenant Obvious to you.

Field promotion.

I don't know how the Peace Corps work Henry, but I don't think a Lieutenant is higher than a Captain in any branch of the service.

Obviously

 

[Henry Ford]

My grandfather was bumped from PFC up to Corporal and back down about eight times during WWII.  I used to ask him why he kept getting bumped back down.  He'd say "field promotions."  And cackle.

Here in bum####ville Oregon the liquor store closes at 7. Missed it the last two nights. So I'm coping with wine. 

Terrible name for a town.  Someone should have thought about that.

My uncle was chosen to carry the USMC guidon during boot camp.  Then he got into some trouble and had to repeat boot camp.  The second time around he was given the same honor.  They even let him carry TWO flags.  Some of the other recruits complained about....
