GM's thread about nothing (23 Viewers)

[After breakfast, Cos asked for some volunteers to help with dishes, so Uni and I sacked up and helped out. I had recently washed dishes at a restaurant for my work so I kinda knew what I was doing.
I don't know why, but this has my :lmao:
We couldn’t just let it sit idle there, so we poured out a finger or so for any takers. A shot video without shooting. Actually, you should have seen the look on Krista’s face when I suggested doing a shot video with it. Thankfully, while we may come across as heathens, everyone knew this was for sipping… thus the worst shot video ever.
My favorite part of this was when nobody knew what was going on, and Thorn needing a sip of alcohol just that bad, but didn't want to ruin the actual "toast", grabs the high life for a swig. :lmao:
 
Miller is the only artist I dislike MORE as time goes on. "Fly Like An Eagle" and "Living In The USA" are about the only two songs of his that I can stomach anymore. His Greatest Hits album was a given to have in my collection; not anymore :puke:
Agree completely. You know what is an embarrassingly bad song? The Joker. Holy poop. Heard it in the car the other day - the woo-oos, peach trees, lovey-dovey all the time.. Brutal. I will say that although the lyrics are silly, abracadabra isn't completely awful musically.

Forgot about "Abracadabra". I like that one too, though I have a friend who's a Miller-fanatic who thinks it's crap. Yeah, because the rest of SM's catalog is sooooooo deep.

***UPDATE****

BostonGirl just replied to my creepy message with:

"Hi! Thanks for the message. I'm actually surprised we haven't met each other before since we have close mutual friends. It would be great to get to know you better! Do you ever come to Boston?"

I STILL GOT IT!!!!!!

As for the privacy settings things and such...... I can't handle the search function on this site and it takes me an hour to link a picture in here. I would need to hire Hock Meng Tay to handle my FaceBook settings.
So the date is tonight. There is a lot of build up going on which means this will probably end badly I'll end my night bailing Thorn out of a Boston jail and then getting drunk with him in our matching Reeses shirts.I asked a couple of close female friends if they remember BostonGirl and they said they did and thought we'd be perfect together. One friend has a cousin who is close to BostonGirl and she asked her for some info on her and she told me that at the same time BostonGirl was asking the cousin for info about me. The cousin really talked me up about being a great guy and that if she wasn't engaged she would go out with me in a heartbeat (nice to have a backup plan) I've been getting several texts this morning from friends saying how excited they are about my date tonight and how they really think BostonGirl and I are going to hit it off.

Two nights ago I was in a garage with a freaky stripper mother of 5 and now tonight I'll be having a nice dinner in the NorthEnd (Italian section of Boston) with a more "polished" girl than the stipper-freak. Life is a rollercoaster sometimes.
Wedding speech material here :thumbup:

Bravo on the recap, Gusher. You're more attentive than I thought :unsure:
:goodposting:How to remember that much 3 weeks out is pretty impressive
It's not the memory so much as it is he noticed things that I would've thought he wouldn't. He arrived on fire (bested only by GM) and stayed hot the whole weekend. Another face-value fail for me.

Groupon fires Andrew mason. Too lazy to find the right thread. Sort of a big deal in tech.
Sort of a big deal in my household, too. :( Loved his goodbye memo, though.
Bet he wishes he would've taken the $6B from google
I never understood why they didn't do that deal, and most normal people would regret not having done it. But he is not normal.
I mean for as smart of an idea man that he is...he created something that was not proprietary at all (evidenced by the dozens of "flash deal" clones....but he couldn't see that for himself. :bangshead:
 
Truck can back me up on this.In California:$100 worth of chips is called a "Scooby" $500 worth of chips is called a "Richard Dawson" ($500 in green chips is a "Richard Dawson Eating a Milk Dud Sandwich)$1000 worth of chips is called a "Pretty Ricky" (in some parts of SoCal it's called a "Mohair Spatula").
(actually true)
 
I'm planning to go to New Orleans by myself next weekend. I desperately need to get away from everything and everyone I know. Mr. krista thinks this is crazy. I figure in a place like that I can either get lost in the crowd or wander off entirely by myself, or can join insanity as I find it. I also have a couple of friends there I could see if I decided to. Many options. Is this not a good idea? (GM not allowed to reply. ;) )
:excited: honestly...it's kinda strange (not wanting to go somewhere to get away...but more b/c it's NOLA being that it's known for a party town) but whatever floats your boat. And as much #### as I give to GM about the safety stuff, a woman shouldn't be walking around by herself in the french quarter. Not saying that you're planning on definitely going to the quarter but given the bolded; maybe that's what your looking for :shrug: If you go, link up with friends and be safe IMO :thumbup: But end of the day, do what you need to do for yourself

eta: I keep re-reading this b/c I can't tell if my first sentence comes off as harsh or not...which is totally not the intent. I think you know what I mean..but my brain isn't functioning right now to say it another way. either way, :banned:

Listening to the "Reality Bites" station on Sirius while I clean the house. Was there a bigger 'gina band in the 90's than Soul Asylum?
Bush?
There is a reality bites station? Both of those sound like good choices. Id go with the Verve Pipe.
I think it's only on the DirecTV feed. Verve Pipe is a string submission. Did they have anything other than The Freshman, or whatever it was called? Not sure if one-hit wonders qualify...
 
So, I'll be 51 in April. My mother continues to give me "care packages" for Christmas. #### like deoderant, toothpaste, etc... This past holiday she apparently thought Axe brand was all the thing. Besides knowing it is vile sludge, I just found out that getting Axe body wash in your eyes will BLIND THE LIVING HELL OUT OF YOU.

Jesus Christ. I'd rather pour cucumber vodka in my eyes. Not a single hot woman has tried to rape me or my optical orbs since I turned into Stevie Wonder.
:lmao: :lmao: Love that. I just turned 55 last week. Mom still has those lifesavers books in my stocking (I hate them but don't want to tell her). She is pretty in touch, I think it just brings her back to another time - I kind of like that.
I'm going to turn 40 this year. I lost my mom almost 2 1/2 years ago. You're going to miss those stupid mom things soon enough. Enjoy them. I promise you that you won't feel like you enjoyed them enough with her when you had the chance.
:goodposting: Lost my Dad 15 years ago and couldn't agree more. Wish I'd appreciated his puns a bit more. :lol: Anyway, I didn't know they still made the Lifesavers books. I think that's awesome. :thumbup:
We had a pun contest for honors English class in high school. I entered 10 puns. If any of your puns got selected by the teacher, you got extra credit. No pun in ten did. :sad:
 
Here's some real life ####:As many of you know, I have an ex (many of you know why and how too). My girlfriend and I have been dating for over two years. She lives in the community and redX will have nothing to do with her. I made the mistake two years ago of suggesting that girlfriend (who was new to the community and didn't know anything about the schools here) enroll her oldest (6 months older than my son) in the same preschool as my son. redX was not impressed, attributed the decision to her and made it out to be a "power play", etc. The truth is it worked out fine but redX is still bitter. I take it to be just one more denial of her her share of responsibility for our divorce, with girlfriend as a convenient target. It doesn't help that girlfriend is a decade younger and a solid two points higher on the offdee scale than redX. Fortunately enough, we do get along on just about everything else including raising our son (thank God!). Anyway, my question to the divorced GMTAN'ers, particularly those with kids, is how often do you make concessions to X to keep the peace, and how often does that lead to stress in your current relationship, i.e. current girlfriend or wife saying that you're not "fighting for" them or something?I get crap from both sides, and peen is starting to seem like a more appealing option for me than vag.
When I was dating the ex gf there was always a little bit of tension between her and the ex wife. I certainly had to make concessions to try to keep the peace. Concessions with the ex wife and concessions with the girlfriend. It was hard for sure but I just had to recognize that it was a complex situation and I couldn't always have my cake and eat it tooGood luck GB

I suggest meditation
 
Mentioned earlier that my wife is out of town; she's up in OH because her mother went in the hospital with pneumonia, was diagnosed with stage 4 lung and pancreatic cancer, and given 1-4 weeks to live. She passed away this morning. Her husband is 90 yrs old, hasn't left the house in years, and is deaf. My wife is the only family member there, and cannot get in touch with the husband. The hospice people pressured her to choose a funeral home, basically at random, and now the funeral home people want to know what to do with the body, but my wife has no idea, and is not the executor. On top of all that, my wife's aunt who lives in California, has a power of attorney, but has informed everyone that she does not want to be involved. What a #### show...

It's a wonderful idea. I'm looking at jobs that travel once or twice a month for this exact reason. Sometimes simply having a place to disappear is great therapy.
Like a strip club. Alone.
 
Things I used to think I loved but now im not so sure: the smell of a campfire/wood stove, gatorade, egg mcmuffins, going to bars, words with friends, action movies, deli roast beef, watching sports, reading every thread on the first page of the ffa, fried foods (except french fries) (and especially the wendys spicy chicken sandwich), video games, and sleeping past 9.
What do you love now that you're not going to love in the future?
 
Just YouTubed Lido Shuffle. Never heard that song before in my life.I guess I prefer this Boz guy's work with Steve Miller.
How is it possible to have avoided this song?
I don't know. Nothing about it seemed familiar to me. I just figured it was played on country stations or something.
I just had to look it up on YouTube too. Never heard the song before :shrug:Krista is right, it sucks

Oh holy hell, I got a lifesavers book too :lmao: Took it straight to work, where it's slowly dissapating.
Have I been living under a rock? Had to google what a life savers book was. I thought it was just the California term for a roll of life savers... Turns out its an actual thing :shrug:

Yup.
 
I am fully tired of the perpetual snow this winter in maine. One minor plus of living here is that you ghetto know your local farmers.I just cooked up a bunch of fresh bacon and sausage and tonight I am eating some grass fed rib-eyes.ahhhhh, fresh local organic carnivore therapy to beat the march winter blues.Ps if you have never thrown down for grass fed beef, do it immediately. You are welcome.

I'll be driving to Akron at some point in the next couple of days. Watch for me, I'll wave as I pass thru Cinci.

Fly me down there and we'll hang out. I'll keep you out of trouble. :thumbup:
:lmao: shtick potential = high. My survival potential = low.I'm rethinking where to go. Any suggestions welcome. I want someplace warmish where I can do fun things if I wish or just hang out in a cafe if I wish, relatively easy to get to as I'll only have a couple of days, and where I only know people that I could either see or not and their feelings won't be hurt.

I always enjoy a weekend in San Diego for someplace warm and light and away from home. If interested, I'd PM Fish for questions and tips.
 
I never even heard of Duck Dynasty until last week when a student came back from vacation in Florida and said she met them.Proud to say I still have no idea who or what this is. I'm assuming yet another circus-freak reality show, but who knows.
