GM's thread about nothing (31 Viewers)

So, I bought a couple of Chive shirts and they should be arriving any day. I don't want to be the doucher that wears it under his hipster blazer with patches, I just want to see if that whole "people buy you beers at the bar" #### really works.

Whatever you do don't tell us which shirts you bought.

Oh and head lice. There's a 50-50 chance your kid(s) is going to come home with head lice. Doesn't matter how clean you keep your kids or your house. When it happens PM me and I'll tell you my sure-fire method of getting rid of them.

####### lice. My daughter's school had a constant battle with these things, and we got an email about twice a week about checks, kids all being sent to the nurse, etc. Finally after about two months my daughter got the damn things. Paid $300 to some place that specializes in getting rid of them.

Makes my skin crawl just thinking about it.

When this happens in the Sweet J household, two things happen:

1. The clippers come out for the boys (me and the boy), and the scissors for the girls. You HAVE to hold firm on this. No objections.

2. We nuke the f^ck out of or hair. Whatever I can buy at the CVS that comes closest to Agent Orange, we are using. Multiple applications, and if the label says "wait two weeks between applications" that meens apply once now, once in a week, and again in another week.

The kids' mom talks about using vasoline, or olive oil or whatever, and a nit-picking comb. Bah. Heavy chemicals.

I'm off to go buy the boy's teachers gift cards since tomorrow's the last day of school and Mrs. SLB was too buys (lol) to buy them. WTF is the deal this year with getting a wish list for teachers? I saw it in another thread but can't remember where. I always take care of them, particularly considering the circumstances, but to send a school wide list by teacher requesting stuff? That's beyond tacky IMO. "Hey Susie, thanks for making me the cookies but I really wanted a gift card to Bed Bath & Beyond, Target or Panera Bread."

That's ridiculous. Just the fact that these teachers assume they're getting a gift period is terrible.

The only way I could imagine doing something like this would be to tell the kids "Hey, if you were already planning on getting me a gift skip the sweets and coffee mugs and gift cards. Instead buy get me some pencils, post-its, mini-sharpeners etc. And buy them from SLB Business Supplies Inc."

Thank you. I think Shuke's kid's school did the same thing this year. Maybe the union is behind this? Hard to believe it's a coincidence.

Oh great.

Dylan was sick Sunday, threw up twice, I rate this a 5/10.

Cal was sick Tuesday, threw up 5 times, I rate this 7/10.

The last thing I've even until right now, was that Wendy's cheesburger Tuesday afternoon. I always imagine little people living inside me like Osmosis Jones. Tuesday night my stomach started hurting and I could feel the red lights flashing, alarms going off and a bunch of microbes, red/white blood cells and stuff running around my body in a panic. I made it through the night but something just wasn't right. Then somebody made a really tough decision. I could just see them simultaneously turning keys, like the were launching a nuke, and saying "may Bob have mercy on our souls" as they then gently touch the abort button. That's when everything in my body was ejected. Threw up 7 times? Oh sure. Violent diarrhea? Of course. Everything had to go. I slept for 30 hours between episodes and pooped myself twice while vomiting. BTW, it's really, really, painful vomiting when you have pulled muscles in your chest. Last time I help old people ever.

I rate this a 10/10.

Then this morning Mrs. SLB said she doesn't feel good. No other symptoms. I got the boys on the bus and went back to bed. I have often heard women say things like "men are sissies when they are sick". Yeah? Well apparently nurses are even bigger pussies. She rarely gets sick so maybe that's it. Of course she had job interview today so maybe that's what it was.

I rate this a 1/10 for now.

ETA

At least I've lost 8 pounds.

Myself, my daughter, my gf and her two brothers all got this or something very similar the day after Thanksgiving. Daughter blew chunks in the theater trying to see Frozen. Fun times.

I didn't eat for two days; gf didn't eat for about 3-4, which is awesome for a type 1 diabetic.

I feel your pain.

I just got back from the store and Mrs. SLB was up watching some stupid ####### program and it was a cooking segment at that. She has just been downgraded to a .1/10. ####### killing me.

Of course Typhoid Dylan made this for me last night. It did make me feel better.

Keep Calm and Chive On in Green

Wanted Bill ####### Murray but they were already sold out 15 mins after the email came saying they were in.

If you're getting lice more often than you're getting laid, it might be time to contemplate some things.

Oh and a bunch of my out of town Christmas gifts got all ####ed up. Here I painstakingly put a personalized hand written card on each one of them and staple a ticket with the delivery address on the box. My warehouse guy asks me if they are all the same thing. I reply yes thinking he didn't want to weigh each one individually. So he just pulls all of the pick tickets off and randomly sent them out. So I keep getting e-mails saying I got a box with a gift in it but the card is addressed to somebody else.

Oh and one lucky person got an additional $25 gift card not meant for them.

Can you break this down a little for the non-Chive informed? Affliction was a late 90's movie with Nick Nolte (and a good one) where he takes his tooth out with pliers. Won't soon forget that scene....but I can't imagine wearing a shirt for that movie.

Affliction/Tap Out/Ed Hardy are the tight muscle shirts with gay spider web and wing type designs that all the UFC roided up douchbags wear. I'm sure you've seen them.

Chive/KCCO is definitely a very large step down on the ##### scale. Honestly the site isn't that bad, lots of pictures of hot girls. The KCCO shirt wearing dude is just usually a pretentious type of guy who acts like he's part of some exclusive club. At least the people I have met anyway. "Yaaaa bro CHIVE ON!!"

When I was at Cedar Point in Ohio, I saw a LOT of "Keep Calm, Chive On" shirts. Also a lot of "You mad, bro" shirts. And also, short shorts on virtually every young woman in the park.

That noise you just heard was the sound of Homer pushing every kid out of line to get into Cedar Point Sandusky.

Nick Nolte Affliction shirts would be awesome.

GM, they mean these

I could draw something better than those.

Dudes wearing KCCO shirts are typically just a notch below Affliction shirt wearers on the douchbag scale in my opinion.

No offense GB Bogart. Still love you.

Can you break this down a little for the non-Chive informed? Affliction was a late 90's movie with Nick Nolte (and a good one) where he takes his tooth out with pliers. Won't soon forget that scene....but I can't imagine wearing a shirt for that movie.

The Chive is a website that shows mainly pictures of half-naked to 3/4 naked girls or Internet funny/cool/hip/stupid stuff. They have shirts you can buy.

Oh and a bunch of my out of town Christmas gifts got all ####ed up. Here I painstakingly put a personalized hand written card on each one of them and staple a ticket with the delivery address on the box. My warehouse guy asks me if they are all the same thing. I reply yes thinking he didn't want to weigh each one individually. So he just pulls all of the pick tickets off and randomly sent them out. So I keep getting e-mails saying I got a box with a gift in it but the card is addressed to somebody else.

Oh and one lucky person got an additional $25 gift card not meant for them.

Oooof. You want I should handle your shipments next year?

We sent all our partners 1 oz Silver Eagles this year in a plastic case that said "Season's Greetings" or some such. Only paid $12 over spot for those bad boys. Plastic casing spot prices must have soared this year.

You should have called me GB. Could have gotten you a deal.

I've done it the same way every year. A new guy was handling it, don't know why this was so confusing.

I thought Ed Hardy was that sketch character on Saturday Night Live played by Martin Short. Who knew he made tshirts.

I visit anytime somebody posts a link, but don't spend much time there. I guess I should. That hullahoop video took about 4 minutes for me to load. Seems wonky.

That's Ed Grimley! One of the best all time characters, IMO.

Before there was ForrestMail there was Al Goldstein.

Remember my ongoing legal issues regarding that contract breach?

Spoiler

They just made an offer. A very low approximately 15% of the value we were asking for. The lawyer representing them though told my lawyer they will go higher at least twice as high. I don't know if he's playing good cop/bad cop or he is really pissed at the acquiring company like he says he is. He told my lawyer he is mad at how many good people they fired with this acquisition without fair compensation. So, what do I counter with? #### you I want it all? Give me 80% and we'll go away? That's pretty far off where we are now. I guess it's good they are coming to the table with something.

RAD is on YouTube in its entirety. Looks like I'm setting aside 90 minutes later tonight.

I watched up until the qualifying race last night. The dance scene may be some of the biggest unintentional comedy there is.

The manifesto in Screw’s debut issue in 1968 was succinct. “We promise never to ink out a pubic hair or chalk out an organ,” it read. “We will apologize for nothing. We will uncover the entire world of sex. We will be the Consumer Reports of sex.”

15% to me deserves a, "#### you, I want it all," response.

But 30% doesn't seem a lot better. What are your prospects if they say, "No, #### you. You're not getting anything?"

It doesn't sound like that would happen because have admitted that it's a binding contract. Of course who knows. Then there would be a couple year legal battle if we can't come to terms. They are in Illinois so he says since we are in different States it would be in a Federal court and they wouldn't like that either? I forget the term he used but he told me he made sure that he knew, that they knew, he was aware of it.

I'm off to go buy the boy's teachers gift cards since tomorrow's the last day of school and Mrs. SLB was too buys (lol) to buy them. WTF is the deal this year with getting a wish list for teachers? I saw it in another thread but can't remember where. I always take care of them, particularly considering the circumstances, but to send a school wide list by teacher requesting stuff? That's beyond tacky IMO. "Hey Susie, thanks for making me the cookies but I really wanted a gift card to Bed Bath & Beyond, Target or Panera Bread."

That's ridiculous. Just the fact that these teachers assume they're getting a gift period is terrible.

The only way I could imagine doing something like this would be to tell the kids "Hey, if you were already planning on getting me a gift skip the sweets and coffee mugs and gift cards. Instead buy get me some pencils, post-its, mini-sharpeners etc. And buy them from SLB Business Supplies Inc."

Thank you. I think Shuke's kid's school did the same thing this year. Maybe the union is behind this? Hard to believe it's a coincidence.

Oh and head lice. There's a 50-50 chance your kid(s) is going to come home with head lice. Doesn't matter how clean you keep your kids or your house. When it happens PM me and I'll tell you my sure-fire method of getting rid of them.

Oh great.

Dylan was sick Sunday, threw up twice, I rate this a 5/10.

Cal was sick Tuesday, threw up 5 times, I rate this 7/10.

The last thing I've even until right now, was that Wendy's cheesburger Tuesday afternoon. I always imagine little people living inside me like Osmosis Jones. Tuesday night my stomach started hurting and I could feel the red lights flashing, alarms going off and a bunch of microbes, red/white blood cells and stuff running around my body in a panic. I made it through the night but something just wasn't right. Then somebody made a really tough decision. I could just see them simultaneously turning keys, like the were launching a nuke, and saying "may Bob have mercy on our souls" as they then gently touch the abort button. That's when everything in my body was ejected. Threw up 7 times? Oh sure. Violent diarrhea? Of course. Everything had to go. I slept for 30 hours between episodes and pooped myself twice while vomiting. BTW, it's really, really, painful vomiting when you have pulled muscles in your chest. Last time I help old people ever.

I rate this a 10/10.

Then this morning Mrs. SLB said she doesn't feel good. No other symptoms. I got the boys on the bus and went back to bed. I have often heard women say things like "men are sissies when they are sick". Yeah? Well apparently nurses are even bigger pussies. She rarely gets sick so maybe that's it. Of course she had job interview today so maybe that's what it was.

I rate this a 1/10 for now.

ETA

At least I've lost 8 pounds.

Myself, my daughter, my gf and her two brothers all got this or something very similar the day after Thanksgiving. Daughter blew chunks in the theater trying to see Frozen. Fun times.

I didn't eat for two days; gf didn't eat for about 3-4, which is awesome for a type 1 diabetic.

I feel your pain.

I just got back from the store and Mrs. SLB was up watching some stupid ####### program and it was a cooking segment at that. She has just been downgraded to a .1/10. ####### killing me.

Of course Typhoid Dylan made this for me last night. It did make me feel better.

Dylan's xmas tree looks like every woman I ever tried to draw with a green dress.

Drawing.....I suck at it.
