GM's thread about nothing (9 Viewers)

Also, :lmao: at a lot of funny posts today.Plus :finger: to Uni because every time I use a tortilla, and that's quite often, I hear "uh, um, somebody did a great job with these tortillas." :lmao: :lmao:
You make some mean tortillas, Bob. :thumbup: Hung out with Gauges for a 2nd time last night. The topic of Reddit came up again and she mentioned she has a 1.7k score or whatever the hell. What does this mean? She is an internet slut? Amburgler? I hear so many good things about Reddit but it seems confusing to my tiny drunken brain.

:goodposting: Just don't get reddit. Anything else to report about Gauges? :popcorn:
 
have we made fun of shuke for his Akron pick yet?
Way to pick one game in the tourney right. :thumbup:
you're really gonna talk ish after your big upset pick lost by 46?
How'd Davidson do?
covered the spread
And that has to do with what?
The spread is everything
Not within the context of this conversation but thanks for chiming in. :thumbup:

She's a lot of fun. Very enthusiastic. :thumbup: We're both fresh out of long relationships, so I think it's just the circumstances. I don't really plan to date her seriously or anything so I imagine it's only going to go on for another few weeks. The nice thing is that she lives on the other side of town (Bogart :bye: ), so I'm kind of figuring the distance will make it naturally easy to end things. I've thought about starting a thread at :e:, but I doubt it would be very entertaining. I don't possess the raw manipulative talent Stu does to goad young floozies into sending naked pics.
 
Bucket List Places are out. I'm going back to Kristagua in May.

Just talked to Julio on the phone. I think he was walking some clients (though it may have been krista - heard her name mentioned but couldn't quite get the context) through the grocery store. He wants to try to Skype again. That should be awesome since I'm a techno-idiot.

In any case, I'm renting Casa Camila (My link). If anyone wants to get away for a few, let me know. I'll have your transport taken care of from airport-to-Granada and also the rent.
I'm not there. We have people at both houses right now so must have been one or the other of them. As I said in my e-mail to you, any time after May 3 is good right now. Had someone renting all of May who just changed their plans yesterday, so it's just meant to be!
I've had a sandwich consisting of bread, mayo, cheddar cheese and apple slices for the last three meals. And at this point, I don't see the streak ending. Seriously, it's like Nirvana in my mouth. I have seen you guys refer to Tillamook cheddar - is that something I can get here or do I need to suck up to one of you schlubs for a care package? Yes, Google is down.
Sounds delicious, minus the mayo. Tillamook is everywhere, even TN. :)
The mayo is definitely a pregnancy thing. Can't get enough. :X I think I have seen some kind of variation on Tillamook at the grocery (Cracker Barrel brand, maybe?), but I just didn't know if those were cheap knock-offs or not. Thanks.

 
Because of Tanner's stupid BB thread, I wanted to hear the song, you know, without that autotune. As I was typing it into Youtube, Kokomo shows up. A pretty horrible tune no doubt but it brought me back to HS and when the cheerleaders "kidnapped" me. Imagine waking up with a room full of hot cheerleaders around you. It was pretty awesome. My mother was not happy. We then went to one of their houses and got day drunk and, um stuff. That was a pretty good day.
:superboner:
Definitely. Ah, the good ol' days. :kicksrock:

Another great underused word.

Avoid Cracker BarrelExploit Tillamook

 
I had fish tacos for lunch today. First time since 4th meal at coshole, so it brought back memories except this time my hands smelled like fish tacos instead of, wait...

 
Tillamook - Great cheese, abysmal town. I think it's pretty ubiquitous, but if you can't find it, I'm sure I can get some to you, although how the hell does one send cheese? Wouldn't it go bad?

By the way, shipping can blow me. Right up there in airlines as far as rape jobs go. Mac's package cost more to ship than the contents cost me. :thumbdown:

 
I went on a date this past week with a girl I met off from the internets. We had met at a local wine bar because we both live in the same neighborhood. I walked her back to her apartment afterwards and whaddya know, she literally lives in the building behind mine. I can see her place from my parking lot. I don't see things going anywhere there, but the proximity could be both a good thing and a bad thing

 
Grilling mini-pizzas tonight. Will take pictures for those who were asking about 'em. Will effort for recipe later.

Cannot wait to watch Oregon crush St. Louis later. :thumbup:

 
Uni, Stu > I'm going to 2 concerts this week... local natives and frightened rabbit :hifive:

Going to local natives with FWB, but a girl I've been talking to on Match is going to be at the show, so FWB has been alerted that she might get ditched for a bit.

CrazyChick is taking me to frightened rabbit. Despite repeated attempts to distance from her, she keeps finding reasons to stick around. She went full on crazy the last time I saw her, so knows that she is on thin ice.

I really want to try this.
The key is obviously the dough. She made it this morning and then makes three balls that sit in a giant ziploc bag on the counter for a few hours. She then rolls out 20-25 round crusts about the size of a Frisbee. Then, about 90 minutes before go time, you want to grill 'em for about 90 seconds on each side. They'll start to bubble up, which is fine, just don't over bubble 'em. Everybody gets to make their own pizza, which is always a crowd pleaser. Having variety is key. Fresh basil is a must, imo. Different meats, peppers, veggies, olives...you know the drill.Grilling the pizzas isn't rocket science, but there's obviously some care that needs to be taken. Too hot and you'll burn the bottoms and since you can't flip them, you have to be careful. I've found that grilling them over indirect/low heat with high heat on the opposite side works best. I like mine a little more done and the older your grill, the more flavor you'll incorporate into the final product. Lastly, my wife and I swear that the pizzas we make the next day with the leftover crusts are better than the pizzas we make the same day. I'm sure that's all in our head as I can't imagine that 'aging' the dough changes the taste, but we've done this a few times now and a day or two or three after we originally make them seems to add to the flavor. :shrug:ETA: Revised above. Missed a step regarding the dough. It's been sitting out on the stove in zip lock bags. I guess to breathe? Pictures sent via text.Double Edit: Just talked to the wife, I'm way off on the dough process. There's another step or two I'm missing (SUPPLIES!) so wife will write down the official recipe later and I'll post it.

Okay, I'm a little lost. You're pre-grilling them and the adding toppings only to grill further? Are we going to get an actual recipe here?
 
Dylan, had his first soccer game of the season this morning. He has a kid on his team named Maverick. :mellow:
My nephews name is Maverick. He's 7 and awesome.
Not questioning the awesomeness of your nephew, GB. Isn't this from Top Gun? When did this become something people named their kid?
His actually is from Top Gun. It's the mother's favorite movie. Iirc she is 28 or 29 now which means she probably didn't see it in theaters fwiw.

THANK YOU.I think I have asked for the pizza dough recipe at least twice in this thread. I know Google is my friend but GM swears by his wife's authentic dough or something like that. I'd ask who I have to blow for this information, but I would honestly be scared.

Yeah, I'm all over the place. I'll get an official recipe later.You just pre-grill the dough only. You want to get the crusts firm. 90 seconds to 2 minutes per side is fine. I'll take pictures and document as I go.
 
There was a a kid a year behind me in HS named Maverick, so he would have been born in '73 or '74. I always chalked it up to his parents being James Garner fans.

Yeah, I do this with oven baking too. It sets the crust a little so it doesn't turn to goo when you add sauce and toppings.
 
have we made fun of shuke for his Akron pick yet?
Way to pick one game in the tourney right. :thumbup:
you're really gonna talk ish after your big upset pick lost by 46?
How'd Davidson do?
covered the spread
And that has to do with what?
The spread is everything
Not within the context of this conversation but thanks for chiming in. :thumbup:
People were talking about betting so yes they covered. Also 45 PTA closer than Akron and against a better team. Other than all that I guess you got me.
 
She's a lot of fun. Very enthusiastic. :thumbup: We're both fresh out of long relationships, so I think it's just the circumstances. I don't really plan to date her seriously or anything so I imagine it's only going to go on for another few weeks. The nice thing is that she lives on the other side of town (Bogart :bye: ), so I'm kind of figuring the distance will make it naturally easy to end things.

I've thought about starting a thread at :e:, but I doubt it would be very entertaining. I don't possess the raw manipulative talent Stu does to goad young floozies into sending naked pics.
Don't go ruining a good thing for our sake.

Oh, I thought this was in reference to the other thread where we were talking brackets.Regardless, you couldn't wait to get your smug ### in here after the VCU win to see if anyone was "making fun of me". So I'm the one "talking ####" or trying to point out how "I got you"?Get the #### over yourself.
GM's Tread About Shark Pool Basketball Brackets?STOP already, the both of you. Don't make me get mad and threaten you with physical violence I have no intention of ever doing.

Hint: Crazy never knows it's on thin ice. Crazy always brings its ice skates.
 
:lmao: Yeah, we've actually had a few beers after work in her office before, but that's happened organically. Where we had meetings end, and she's like "i need a drink" or whatever, and we shoot the breeze. Anyway, I'm not really not worried about screwing around. At best, I like the thought of it more than actually doing it. Anyway, I just sent her a note that said "you still interested in happy hour? I may take a run to the store to get beer/wine." She wrote back: "Absolutely! I think drinking may be all I'm good for at this point."
Update?
 
Man, frosti was apparently really good at college hoops this year. But I think he was not faring so well in tourney and St. Louis was a big favorite for him.

 
My bad. I don't know what my deal is. A lot #### hit the fan at work this past week. Some of it my fault, most of it not. But if I don't fix it all, and quickly, it's not going to look good for me.

I have been in a pissed off funk since my travel issues Friday night. My dad and I went to the games in Dayton yesterday. It was good spending time with him, but I just didn't enjoy it like I usually do. Maybe becasue 3 of the gams were blowouts. Or the fact we were there for 10 straight hours. I had some very uncomfortable gas by the time the third game started, but the toilets were beyond usable by that point (IU fans are filthy animals). Plus I felt guilty about being away from the family all week then get home and barely even see them all day.

 
Unless St. Louis pulls off a miracle in the next 2 minutes, my online gambling account will be drained. I don't even know how to get money in there, and doubt I will bother figuring it out.
