GM's thread about nothing (12 Viewers)

The local/neighborhood fireworks are really starting to heat up tonight. This weekend will be nuts.
I loved this time of the year in high school. We'd go down to the pond and have bottle rocket wars. It was especailly fun shooting them underwater. You'd see the light underwater as the rocket submarined its way along before the the flash, and ploonk sound and your balls would retreat out of your scrotum from the concussion. Good times.
Yes!did something similar as well as a kid. :goodtimes:

My children swim on swim team. I am a timer during the swim meets. This past weekend I burned my thumb when taking something out of the oven. The burn spot on my thumb blistered over and then the blister busted at some point when I was either cleaning or working in the yard. I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to time because of my thumb injury. :lmao:
Did you lose the other arm in 'Nam?
Yeah, what?
I was shocked to see she stopped referring to her children as "babies."
Use your other hand?Assuming it has an oppose-able thumb.
You guys don't understand women. :lmao:
 
Buddy of mine fathered "Irish twins", they're ten and a half months apart. The kids are 13 and 14 now, they are divorced, and she still isn't right.
Sounds like they were a little too young to marry.
Not really. They were 33 and 31 when they had the first one, and had done every fertility regimen under the sun for four years. Then they gave up, and got pregnant right away. Twice.It's a long story, and there's blame to go around. I do my best to be a friend to both, as I was before they got married.
I think you misunderstood my bad attempt at a joke.

My wife and her sister are only children, and they're 15 years apart. I like to refer to them as Polish twins. She likes to not have sex with me when I do that. Some day that will actually cause me to stop saying it.

Mrs. SLB got called into work this morning. I finally just got off the phone with my Mom. Work e-mails are piling up like a toll both. I haven't packed yet. The dog is barking at me and I'm trying to get my brood in the bathtub.

Is it too early to drink?

Throw the dog in the bathtub with the kids, lock the door and then go drink some whiskey?

More car talk:

Do people actually keep all their receipts for their oil changes? My WRX has been in the hospital for a week, and now the dealer is telling us that Subaru will not fix the busted engine even though it's still under warranty, unless we can give them receipts for all the oil changes we've ever had. People actually keep these????

FML.

Oil changes? No. Some other bigger repair, like a brake job or something, I would try to keep.ETA: I'm assuming you went to other places to get your oil changed and not them (they don't have any records)?

I just got out of the shower and was digging in the vanity for a new razor to shave my head and the dog came up and licked my ### crack.W.T.F.There wasn't even any peanut butter in there.

Right. We moved here in December, so the oil changes before that were all in Chicago. I suppose it's possible to contact the two places we used and see if they have records, but I just can't believe that anyone expects that you keep all those receipts.

:unsure:No. When you are "home" team the timer is also responsible for recording the times. In each lane is two timers (one from each team). I'm right handed, so I hold the clipboard in my left hand, use my right hand to start the timer/stop the timer, start the timer again for the fly overs/dive overs, then I record my time and the other timer's time and the process continues on. It's a fast process and they want accuracy. I was concerned that my thumb was going to bother me especially if I broke the sore open. I put a band-aid on the boo-boo and thought, "here goes..." Turns out I use my index finger on the start/stop watches(who knew") so it was a non-issue.

Ours has a foot fetish. When I get out of the shower she'll come in and lick my feet.

How many freaking miles do you drive in a year?

:wub: The car is a 2008 that I bought in summer 2007, so I would need receipts for the last three years. I think there are about 30K miles on the car, so 10 receipts?

So you didn't know which finger you used for the stop watch?? :X

Most new cars only need to have the oil changed every 5000 miles.Mr. Krista<take care of this will ya.

Well, I might--might--not have strictly adhered to the recommended timing of oil changes. But because of the type of driving I do, my style of driving, and weather conditions, I probably should have come closer to 3K than 5K.ETA: Here's a little primer for you. ;)

Yeah, and what's crazy is I time at all the meets.
