GM's thread about nothing (16 Viewers)

I want to kiss the inventor of the BLT on the mouth.

Have never had one.

This is the craziest thing I've read in months.

I don't think I've ever had one either. Not a fan of lettuce.

There is no way there are two people in this thread who have never had a BLT. One of you is lying, and I'm going to keep killing until I find out who.

Put me on the list, too. I don't like tomatoes.

WTF? You're Italian. How can you not like tomatoes?

I guess everyone hates pizza, pasta sauce, chili, etc too

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Throps to all.

Shuke texted me that he was available for dinner tonight.

How about any of the Austin crew?

I've a busy day and won't be able to shepherd it, but Tell me the time and I'll fix dinner.

 

[cosjobs]

I think I'm going to buy an electric car.

They're $36000 new and 19000 one year old with 4k miles

Pretty sure I'm going used.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

I've never heard of tomato pie before but now I need it badly in my mouf. I don't understand how you guys don't like tomatoes or mushrooms and seemingly most other things. Starting to think the main diet of GMTANer's is booze and Hershey bars.

Thoprawishes to uruk, roboto and Tec. Sorry for each of your losses.

That's the one thing I hate about being this age. Turning 40 didn't bother me in the least. I don't really get the idea of midlife crises and whatnot. Maybe it's because I've never really grown up. I don't know. But what I do know is that I was fortunate enough to not encounter much death as a kid. Both of my grandfathers died before I turned 1 and both of my grandmothers died within the last few years. So there was quite a gap there. I remember my mom's best friend's husband died when I was REALLY little, but I didn't understand what it meant. I lost the occasional classmate in school, though the only one that really impacted me was my senior year, when a kid I was friends with growing up died in a car wreck. And then, for the most part, another large gap.

But starting in the mid-30s through now, people I was around the entire time I was growing up keep dying. It seems like about twice a year on average for the last 5-6 years. They're not ALL people I was close to. Some of them are just people who were around a lot when I was a kid, like my aunt's brother who died recently. But you still miss them, even if its just in a, "Hey, you remember Bub? He was always around when we were kids. Such a nice guy. What was his real name? I'm not sure I ever even knew," kind of way. And the screwy part is that most of these people probably didn't even know SLB. It's just old age catching up with them. But still...

I thought I missed them when I just lived 1800 miles away from them and only saw them once a year or so, but then you find out what it means to really miss them. And it really sucks. So I empathize with each of you, and I hope you can find whatever peace there is to be found.

Hershey bars are definitely the suck.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I have no idea why I typed that. Just seems like lots of death among the relatives of friends (and relatives) these days. So that's me spitting in your ****, death. Eat a ####.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Never knew eating a BLT was such an exclusive thing.

I mean, it's not like it's a club.

Only the minorities. The virginal white wimmens are sacrificed to the god of horseradish (I think his name is Dave).

My brothers and I took our Dad up to Wisconsin to golf all weekend. The breakfast buffet was ridiculous. I think I had about 4lb of bacon and 25 sausage links on Sunday.

Not a big fan of pizza/pasta sauce. As long as there isn't too much it's ok.

You had fun with the hipsters and Asian American community?

 

[mr roboto]

Well that sucked. My 6 year old took it pretty hard. Lots of tears. She's grown up with Kona (the yellow lab) since she was a baby. She used to cuddle with the dog on the floor and put bows on her ears and play dolls with her. The 4 year old was sad but is a bit too young to fully understand.

The vet told my girls that Kona would be running in heaven. Afterward we told them that dogs don't have an afterlife. I really wish the vet wouldn't have said that. We are pretty honest about life and death with the kids because they've experienced 3 of their great grandparents dying in the last couple of years.

They don't?

Okay, this really hits home hard for me and I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a regal Akita/Collie mix named Kona that I loved more than I've loved any animal before or since. He was my pride and joy. He died before he was 3. Thanks, cancer.

May your Kona rest in peace next to my Kona.

Speaking of crying, I lost it yesterday at the Mariners game when they reunited a soldier with his wife and young son before the first pitch. Showed it on the jumbo tron, the little boy weeping big sobs of joy, clinging to his dad's uniformed body. And I'm not ashamed of it in the least.

It's a craft store. Around here there's Michaels and A.C. Moore. Not sure what you've got in Oregon.

Just found out our 18 y.o. intern from Winnetka (upscale Chcago suburb) is a heroin addict. He's been stealing money from his host family - 3 occasions, about $200 total. They found a tourniquet and a couple empty small bags in their third floor attic.

I want to throw up.

Spoiler

I have to call his mom in a few minutes. She used to be the SEC Director in Chicago, got recruited to be a partner at Morgan, Lewis & Bockius last year. JFC I am dreading this.

I clicked on the last page of that thread, read one Scoobygang post about the ruling and realized immediately I didn't understand a word of what he was saying. I would make a horrendous lawyer.

I cried yesterday to something a lot less moving than that.
