GM's thread about nothing (11 Viewers)

Of course the book is much better.

Don't be that guy.

What guy? The guy that reads?

The "the book was way better" guy. Look, I know you're a fairly intelligent guy so I'll give you a pass this time, but typically when people say this in conversation it's pretty obvious they're saying "HEY LOOK AT ME I READ BOOKS".Plus, when has the book ever not been better than the movie?

Forrest Gump.

I was doing a little istalking and one of you really has a friend named Forrest Crump. I laughed.

I'm hosting our softball team party next weekend and I'm afraid, despite it being a "Women's 19 and over" league, that a few of the girls on my team are underage. Should I ask? I think not. Ignorance is bliss.

I just noticed that the little packet in the bag of bacon bits has "do not eat" on it.

Dustin................. Johnson. oof

I liked his interview. He was cool about it but subtly made it clear he thought it was lame.

I do not wear "ball caps." Apparently none of you have ever suffered the indignation of going into a sporting goods store, asking for "the largest size they have", and WA LA (hi Smoo!), you're wearing a makeshift Oakland Athletics yarmulke. Because if you had, you'd know it hurts.

right there with ya, gb

not big enough

No way your head is bigger than mine. NO WAY

Shawshank Redemption is a better movie than the Stephen King short story its based on...can't recall the name. Better movie. By far.

Which is funny because 98% of all Stephen King adaptations to film suck slug balls. Anyone ever tried to get through the original Salem's Lot? Holy lord...what an awful steamy pile of poo.

Misery maybe a better movie than book, but that's due to incredible acting by Bates and Caan.

I agree that Salem's Lot miniseries was pretty bad, but it gets a lot of love on this board for some reason. I think Misery was a better book, but maybe that's because I was able to picture Bates in the role.

 

[EYLive]

My head's so big I special order magnum sized NewEras.

 

[shuke]

How bad was the mini-series IT?

I actually thought it was pretty good.

Also the hot girl bartender bought me a beer. Sup?

This is a top ten alias/avatar combination, BTW.

I'd love to see the whole list.

Well, it's going to be the hottest day of the year in Portland today. Possibly up to 100 degrees. Yes, I can hear all of you in Texas laughing at me. Bite me, we don't have A/C. Normally the ex takes the boys on Sunday, but since we're heading to Michigan next week sans boys, I told the ex I'd take them all weekend.Yesterday, we headed to the coastal mountains, found a little river to hole up in, splash around, catch crawfish and drink ice cold Pepsis (okay and few Molsons). This nice Russian or Ukranian gal who was catching crawfish near us told us about a 'lost lake' about 4 miles up a dirt road. So around 5pm, we decided to try and find this little lake. We did and it was incredible. There were about 7 or 8 other people out on this entire lake, which was more like a giant pond or a little lake but still....it felt like we had it all to ourselves. My boys spent about an hour or so moving giant logs around the water. I read an ESPN Fantasy Magazine (which is AWFUL - AVOID THIS ONE) to prepare for upcoming drafts. Once the sun set, we loaded back up, drove an hour and change back home, showered up and hit Buffalo Wildwings. Then, on to DQ for blizzards. All in all, a perfect day. But now what? I'm sitting around here racking my brain on what to do. Wife working again today, so it's just me and the boys. Sitting around is not an option. I think I'll go poop and cogitate. BRB.

Let us know if any dried cranberries roll your way.

That's really cool. My wife can't even put the poison in my food right.

We stayed downtown last night and on the way home we saw an older looking black guy with no legs driving his electric wheelchair with his left hand and had a shirtless 3-4 month old baby in his right. It was quite an amazing sight. Sadly, I didn't have my camera ready. Yikes.

Weird. I saw a 1 legged black man wheeling his regular chair down the wrong side of a divided highway yesterday as I attempted to turn left. I should've cut him off, but was too stunned.

That's how we were. It was a combo of shocked, amusement and sadness. TF, I almost turned around too but I was a little hungover.

Fluctuate between 7 5/8 and 7 3/4 Yes, my head size fluctuates and not because of my hair.

Slightly Stoopid rules, btw.

Reading these back to back combined with not being familiar with non-mainstream music made me think Rud was going rogue.

I went browsing for a new laptop today. I wasn't going to make a purchase but figured if I found a decent deal, I'd pull the trigger.

My fiancee was with me and she was getting bothered that I was debating between 2. So she suggested we go by the TVs for a bit so I could mull it over. We walked past a nice 50" Samsung plasma TV for $999. She was surprised that it was so cheap vs LCD/LED. She then noticed the sign advertising "3 years of no financing" and said "Is this TV good? I would walk out of here today with it"



A plasma TV, Blu Ray player, surround sound and a laptop later I got to completely re-do my living room.

Oh, and she put it all on her card

Yes, look at me.

Pickles axed his own thread?

No explanation given. I was actually going to post this fake email from Joe to the mods to "keep an eye on that ombudsman thread."

Sociopathic behavior?

Remember that time we were at the beach and Hoss wanted to kill JoeT because JoeT told the girl that Hoss liked that we were all here for Hoss's bachelor party and at the same time Gator was puking over the rail onto the bar below while Red tried feverishly to get me to go chat up some latina's so that they would dance with him because "I spoke their language."

Dream or real life?

When you guys cornhole, how often do you call each other by screen names?

Pretty sure I go by Mex all weekend. Only JoeT goes by his real name

I didn't realize it was a miniseries. I watched the VHS movie, which was edited down from the miniseries. It was horrible. We should get wasted, watch it and film our reactions. Or has that idea been done before?

I have no idea what his real name is.The only person I think I ever called by birth name was Scupper. Course I re-introduced myself to Mex 15 times.

I was a better MH1 guy. MH3 was a poor effort.

Security's not tight enough over there. We've been breached on several occasions. ullsupachair:A couple years back I was dating this other chick. I also happened to be having relations with her best friend. I decided to go over to the other site and post a bit about it....pics included. The thread was rather popular and made it to 3 pages within a few hours. Then it happened. The unimaginable. Sure I'm posting on a site with about 75 degenerate weirdos. Most of whom I probably wouldn't brush elbows with in real life. I see the response: "Hey, did that girl have a____(very descriptive)___?? I immediately went into mode. I PMd Truck, tried to raise him on google chat, tanner, ANYONE!. Immediately went into clean-up mode. Deleted all pictures from the thread, all of my responses. Changed user names and eventually later that day Truck deleted the thread. I was so freaked out I took off into the hills for about 6 days to get my head straight. This could have brought the whole house of cards down.I returned and logged in and it was like nothing happened. No pms from the guy...nothing. There was no doubt the responder knew exactly who the girl was and had also seen her in her birthday suit. Yet nothing. Never heard another word about it. I hope he doesn't post in this thread. But the truth is to this day I wonder what his relation was to her. Through deductive reasoning I assumed it was her ex-boyfriend. I broke up with the other girl years ago and stopped having sex and haven't seen the one from the nudie thread in well over a year.At some point I'll have to clear the air. I'm just not ready to do it yet. Then we had the David Price, James Shields thread. That was legit. Price actually read the thread and called my friend. My roommate said "There was some blog online about what happened that night!!! Someone must have been following us the whole time! David called ________ freaking OUT!!! Immediately had that one deleted as well. Shields was newly married at the time.So I've learned my lesson about posting things on sites. When you spread out, the world's a lot smaller than it feels.

Was all true. I eventually stopped posting about real life situations involving others partly do to my experience with those two threads and from being constantly stalked, accused of making up stories.On another note I tried to buy a Taurus Judge on Friday before my camping trip. Wanted something the would take the head off a weirdo pervert in the woods (was camping with my girl) or stop a bear or mountain lion in it's tracks. While they were doing the background check I told the owner of the shop I'd be back to pick it up in a few hours. Got a call two hours later.....denied. I'm a bit worried about that. Said I had to write the _______ Bureau of Investigation and they would send me a return letter. I haven't been arrested in 12 years and have no real criminal history.
