GM's Thread About Everything/GM's Thread About Nothing (20 Viewers)

My little sister is missing. Again. This time feels very different.  Have a sick feeling in my gut. Not sure if I posted or not but her husband was killed in car accident last November.  Her birthday is tomorrow.  She's homeless on Kauai again after spending some time in the clink for allegedly seeking vengeance on the driver of the car that hit him.  What's different this  time is she hasn't used her phone or taken any money out of the account that my parents send in a month. My parents are freaking out. She doesn't have any ID and I wouldn't put it past her to just say #### it and jump off a cliff.  She's brave. My only hope is that she had found a companion in a stray dog that she loved very much and if he was still with her, don't think she would do so and abandon him.  Of course who the #### knows.  

Thanks for listening, will answer yours.
:(  sorry gb

 
I just saw the "are you successful" thread.  I assume just a bunch of humble-bragging?  I made the mistake of opening the "first-world problems" thread a month or so ago, and that was the extent of it.  I wanted to post my real first-world problem, which was that I stood at the sink in a restaurant bathroom for a few seconds longer than I needed to because I didn't realize neither the water nor the soap were automatic, and then had the same issue with the paper-towel dispenser.  But i didn't want a black dot or white corner or blue star or whatever on that thread.
Krista Burgle?

 
right there with you.  she has an iPad and texts friends from it and she knows that i can and will read anything on it, whenever i want to.  there are all sorts of apps that kids use, musically for example, that seem horrible to my geezer ###, but the future is here.  i gained major cred with her and her friends last year when i took her to vidcon.  thank god the tickets were free from work.  $350 each :eek:   all the "stars" from the internet, you tube, musically, etc  were there.  none from red tube though...

agree here as well.  all the social media status stuff is the worst.  finding your self worth through likes and views is a pretty sorry way to live.  
Oh, I don't know.  Seems reasonable to me.

 
When did Home Depot turn into a dog park? Who was the pioneer of this movement and what was the impetus? 
You've always been able to take your dog to Home Depot, hoss.  Lowe's allows them too in most places.

My knucklehead loves going to the box stores.  Lots of new smells.  Gets attention from strangers.  He's like the mayor.  Nice place to go wear him out if it's too rainy for the trail/whatever.

Because I’m lazy I hired movers to pack and move my crap.  They were a little lax with the labeling, so for the next week (at least) my life is going to be a freaking treasure hunt.  Took opening 6 boxes to find a charger for my phone tonight (roverkid stole the one that I brought here myself so I could find it).

 
In front of me at 7-11 this morning there was this big fat guy wearing at least 4 t-shirts, each one slightly smaller than the last. His wife/gf was probably 5’ and 80lbs. They bought 4 cokes, a slurpee, 5-6 bags of sunflower seeds, a few small bags of chips, and a hot dog. He made a big scene about 7-11 not having their hot peppers out for his 6am hot dog. Pretty good morning so far.

Wonder if this is this guy's daily routine?

If I'm normal morning 7-11 employee guy, and see this blob daily, hot peppers never come out again until he walks out the door

 
Couple days ago saw a lady pushing a baby stroller approaching. I looked down and it was a dog.  WTF?
my friend's wife does this. they live in NYC. she dresses the dog in clothes to go out for "walks". which are either in a stroller, in a baby bjorn type device or held in her arms.

:shrug:

#2 – Home Depot

Home Depot is one of many hardware stores that are happy to welcome your dog. With its wide aisles, there’s plenty of space for leashed dogs to accompany you on a home improvement expedition. Some customers report being turned away at their location, however, though others say their local HD still welcomes their pooch. Be sure to call ahead and verify.

That’s the thing, the guy said, “ahh forget it” when told there’s no peppers, then he went back and make her re-bun the thing because he decided he still wanted it

guess who pays for the crystal

 
No less than 8 cars have drifted over into my lane either right in front of me or while next to me today.  What in the mother ####?  Close to a heart attack.  I feel like I'm in some weird Twilight Zone episode where my car is invisible and I have to honk the entire time.

 
Heading to Tallahassee later today for a conference on FSU campus tomorrow.  I need quality Jameis Winston and fraternity jokes, right?

People tired after not adjusting the time change well.

Wait, are you in Austin? This sounds familiar.

Thank you, I meant to ask about this. @General Malaise  I just thought it was because I'm living in the sticks.

If you leave suggestion 1 in the sun for a few days, that's how they make the special sauce at McDonald's.
Not sure I want to know the answer to “Just exactly how much is considered a one year supply?”

we're touring middle schools. every time I see a faculty member doing their best to sell their school in front of rabidly insane NYC type 1 parents (who can't help ask questions at the end that are prefaced by some look at me resume building thing about their own kid), I think of what kind of goofy team-building posters they might have in their faculty lounge desecrated by the tanner teacher.

yeah. touring middle schools. who knew this was a thing.
