GM's thread about nothing (18 Viewers)

'General Malaise said:
I have one sibling - a little sister. She's driving 100 MPH towards a brick wall. When she started this journey, she was going 45MPH and the wall was 100 miles away. Now it's in sight and if she doesn't tap the brakes now, the aftermath is going to be ghastly. Today, tomorrow or the next day, there will be a "Come To Jesus" meeting with her, absent her husband. It's not going to be a pleasant experience for any of us, but I think it's time to act. We're at prognosis negative here. Not for her health or anything like that. But she's making horrible, awful, stupid, ludicrous, asanine, destructive decisions that are negatively impacting not only her life, but the life of her kids and today - my kids. The wall is going to destroy her soon. She's completely out of control. This is going to be ugly. An intervention seems to come with a guidance counselor; we don't have that. But we might need one. Anybody go through this? PMs appreciated for anyone with experience. I'm down to that....I don't know what else to do.

No experience with this type of thing, but wish you and your family/friends the best of luck. :(

Another tip - don't forget the password and the email address password you used to create one of your main accounts. I can't clear my iPhone cookies because it's the only way I can log into my actual account that I care about. I'm stuck as "Reginald Cornsilks" on my gd computer.

I've created several goofy side accounts over the years. Just the other day, I sat down to try to remember them all. There are at least 3 accounts whose email addresses I can't remember. Sad.
 
Serious question: Is Woz the worst person alive? And I don't mean "worst" in the Hitler sense, but worst in terms of...I don't know. Anyway, you read this post and figure it out. This guy is bizarre.

He's almost frustrating. He's like the kind of guy who just makes a whole room angry just by being in it. I actually think L_H-Ucks might be a better person.

And it's not like he kills animals or punches homeless people or anything, he just has a soul comprised entirely of dog####.
 
Since i have my survivor league draft on Monday night and haven't so much as purchased a magazine yet, I figured I'm mosey on over to the shark pool and see what I could learn. Here are the players whose names are in thread titles right now:

Greg Little - never heard of him, think he might have been a linebacker in the 90s

Dezmon Briscoe - sounds made up

Jimmy Claussen - I know him

Cam Newton - and him

Peyton Hillis - and him

Shane Vereen - no idea who this is

Mark Ingram - would have no idea who he plays for if it wasn't in the thread title

Tony Romo - know him

Clinton Portis - no idea who he plays for

Brandon Loyd - same

Jermichael Finley - know him

James Starks - not a clue

Mike Hart - used to be a Colt, no clue now

A.J. Green - pretty sure he's that rookie WR

Chaz Schillens - another made up name

Ryan Williams - nope

Chris Wells - yes

Jared Cook - nope

Of the 18 players being talked about over there, I know who 11 are, but only know what team they play on for 7. I think this "game" has passed me by.

I can tell you what college team they played for, but I have no idea what NFL team they're on. So, I'm screwed too I guess.

I don't see what the big deal is. I get lapdances in front of (and behind) her all the time.

SLB: did you ever check your contract re: personal property left at the house after closing? There should be something in there addressing it.

No, Krista4like busy at work. Pretty sure these garden gnomes are mine. Hypothetically.

I sent an e-mail out a couple of weeks ago. Everything is the same as last year. Shoot me an e-mail or text and I'll send it again.

Now you know how my penis feels. Just change "months" to 1982. I was listening to a radio show on my way home from work last night and they were talking about the heat in Dubai. Weather guy said there is a dew point of 80-82% there. Shockingly enough he said the hottest place on Earth was in North Dakota last week. Hopefully Mount Rushmore doesn't melt.

:hifive: Right there with ya.I know who James Starks is though. Is Chris Wells the same guy as Beanie Wells? Ohio St and now... Arizona? :unsure:Pretty sure AJ Green was the Laker forward with the Jheri curl and the intact hymen.

I told him in his drinking thread he was a "weird dude". He wants to know why - I didn't really have an answer.

I know this makes me gayer than Woz' boyfriend but I am loving driving this Prius. :nerd: :drive:
Click to expand...
They give me a Prius every time I go out to LA. I spend more time watching the gauge that shows where the power is coming from and where it is going than I do watching the road. I make a game out of trying to coast enough to completely charge the battery.Congrats on your smart purchase GB. With my commute right now, I would trade my gas guzzling truck for a Prius in an instant.

no advice other than glllllllllllbut i've always felt people held back too much during these things. a good punch in the face sometimes is all a person really needs. :shrug:
Click to expand...
Well, I can't really punch my sister in the face with my fist, but I CAN send a very terse and carefully worded email that will have - hopefully - the same impact. So far, we're getting positive results, but she has a history of placating us with hollow words. I called her on that too. I've also called my parents out for enabling her to live like this through their financial support. Going forward, that spigot is cut off and I will have an equal say (with my parents) on financial handouts. This is going to be a very difficult and challenging road for her, but at least she has agreed that the very first steps must be made absent any and all booze. From there, she can make tougher decisions that will impact her family for life, but she needs to make them sober and with some help. Her husband is a friend of mine. Watching him over the last two months has been very difficult. He is despondant, depressed and looks like a beaten down man. This is the downside of having your sister marry a friend of yours, though I can't at the moment think of any upside, which for years, I thought existed. I'm sure this is vague and believe me, I hate ambiguity more than anybody, but I have to be very careful what I say here. Let's hope there's better things to report down the line.

Pretty sure you nailed a long ways back when you called him 'rapey'. I've been called a LOT of bad things in my life....'rapey' ain't one of them.

I'll put it at :e: since lots of it would get filtered here, and parts that wouldn't would circumvent the language filter fiercely.

Preaching to the choir here. Even when he does stuff right, it's wrong.

:lmao: That's perfect. Even when he's :e:lsewhere talking about his bedroom exploits (something that I would normally enjoy reading about) I feel like throwing up a little.
 
Came in to work at noon hungover as hell. needed a little hair o' the dog and cracked a beer around 12:30. The pseudo-hottie stopped in and I was doing shots w her at 1. Needless to say, I'm shmammered.

I really really love my job. :wub:
