GM's thread about nothing (11 Viewers)

Throps, Bogie.

 

[Limp Ditka]

Thanks for all the good thoughts. This thread continues to amaze me. They pulled her out of ICU this morning and pulled the ventilator as she is breathing on her own. Yep Buck, that's her. As for the DNR, I have medical power of attorney and also being next of kin in Texas, I can make that decision for my mom. I will admit, I was not ready to make that decision last night, but more ready than I thought I would be, if that makes any sense. I asked the nurse how it would work with her in this situation, and she talked of slowly weening the patient off the machine and letting nature take its course. Last night made me realize we have a lot of #### to get in order. I thought I had affairs in order, but as I sat there taking inventory of what needed to be done, I'm not even close.

Good to hear. Go Mom Bogie!

 

[krista4]

TPW, Bogart. Glad to see she's doing a little better.

Mom is actually still in ICU. all the info this morning was for another patient. Not loving hospitals right now.

 

[Hawks64]

Wow. Hang in there, Bogart. Hoping for the very best.

TPW and sorry for all the #### you're going through at the hospital, Bogart.

Best of luck Bogart. You are one of the good ones.

This was the letter I included with Woz's package. The only gift not described fully is the tshirt. It's pink with the motto "Lady Lawyer".

Dear Woz--

A little note from your Secret Santa to explain the gifts and hopefully spread some holiday cheer. Ho Ho Ho

The first thing I thought about was your cute little Yorkie. I know she means the world to you, and you'd never want her be uncomfortable, so i arranged for a coat in case the Arizona winter ever gets cold. It's being shipped separately because one of my elves ####ed up.

I've also included a mug with a little message that says everything is all about you. I know you will probably never need a reminder, but just in case something happens, you can read the note and remember to let everyone know how exceptional you are.

I hope you like the t-shirt. It's a silent reminder to everyone that you're a lawyer and not to be messed with. Wear it with pride!

I also got you a game designed to jumpstart conversations. In the past, you've been hung up on Jen and frankly, you've tended to revert to your past relationship and subsequent breakup with alarming frequency. Hopefully this game will help you think about other conversation topics so your B&M friends don't think you're psycho.

The last gift needs a little explanation. It's a 2 ounce shot glass inscribed with the motto "Down the Hatch". It's a rare individual who can produce two ounce shots, and frankly, it's equally as rare to find a significant other who can handle two ounces every time. So, if s/he ever doesn't feel like handling all two ounces, you can fill up the shot glass and just point to the motto to remind them where it goes. Everybody wins!!!

I hope you have a Merry Christmas!!!!

Secret Santa

Yeah, Chet...

I appreciate the effort, I really do, but you gotta update your info and at least make sure it is accurate. I know it's been mentioned on here that I live with my fiancee. She's pretty open to jokes and the like, but she's been cheated on in the past and is aware I dated a girl with a yorkie. So, needless to say when I got a call from her in the middle of a workday asking me why there was a little yorkie outfit shipped to our house I did my best to run home and head off any other potential packages. Unfortunately, I was too late and I arrived to her asking me through nervous tears why someone from Illinois would send this stuff, what it all meant, who the hell "Jen" is (yeah, that's not the right name) and why the sender seemed to think I'm single. Given that we've had no issues in the two years or so we've been together it was pretty brutal trying to explain that a few years ago I got a little carried away on a message board, what each reference was about (god bless explaining "two ounces" and the ensuing look of horror), and having to assure her that I honestly didn't know why I thought someone believed me to still be single when the only personal posts I have made on her in the last year or so have been ones about getting married.

We got through it pretty well but she had tossed out everything but the coffee mug (which she thought was funny and wants to keep) and the letter by the time I had even gotten home so I didn't even get to see most of the stuff. Sorry it went to waste as I imagine the items were Chet quality, but my main concern was trying to relieve my fiancee's confusion so I wasn't about to go digging them out. Again, I appreciate the effort and a couple of years ago when I lived alone I'd have had a good laugh at it, but for future warning if you're going to get shticky with these things maybe just make sure you have recent and accurate information. No hard feelings or anything, just a future suggestion.

The "#'s" puzzle me, but I'm going to go with a tentative "yes".

Rereading Woz's measured and pedantic response, that reads a lot like a Jhoe missive, no?

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Maybe they can discuss this in those scam Catholic Church pre-marital counseling thingies?

Oh, that has to come up some how, right? I think the mistake was using the name "Jen" in the letter. I can see why a girl would get upset if it was implied the current chick receiving the 2oz was somebody else.

 

[Tecumseh]

SLB and Bogart- Sorry for what each of you are going through. Thoughts out to you both.

And that he was currently "hung up" on that person. I think any girl reading that would assume bad things.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

It's funny ####, no doubt. But I can understand Woz being upset.

Kind of glad I don't participate in things like this. I don't want to have to explain to my wife why a huge box of garbage shows up at my door, marked "YOU FORGOT THIS IN OAKLAND", or a bunch of Anthony Davis masks.

Is that what she calls you?!? Her little 'Yorkie'??? Does she put a dog collar on you? Take you for walks? This is going to take a lot of talking and begging and cuddling to overcome, Wozzy-kins. And don't even think about having sex for the next month. And when we do.. IF we do... doggy style is OUT from now on.

[T Bell]

Can someone give me the Cliffs Clavins notes on the dot thing?

Some ######## decided to track how much secks his wife gave him over the course of a year by putting different colored dots onto his calendar, before tallying them up. Blue was the regular secks, other colors for other things. It's in the "marital relations" thread.Then someone decided to start another thread where everyone would keep track this year, and that thread predictably died a quick death overnight.

OP tracked sex with wife for 2012. Orange dot on day meant biblical relations. Blue dot meant mouth hug or hand job. Now everyone is tracking for 2013 with additional colors, brown for backdoor action, red for during Aunt Flo and a yet to be determined color for sexting. (I love you Stu).

You do know that blue dot is slang for sex offender, right?
