GM's thread about nothing (24 Viewers)

Is $38 a good deal for a 1.75L of Maker's Mark? I don't know, but I have it now. In all of it's brown glory.
[gator]Is that including the cost of the diet coke?[/gator]
He likes that Jack Daniels "bourbon" though.
No, he mixes the good stuff with coke.
Wait...is mixing whiskey with wrong? Or is it just the good stuff? I mean can I mix well whiskey with Coke and not be ostrich-eyed?

I sure hope not. Ezra Brooks and Coke got me through high school. :unsure:

Yeah, you're good. :backpat:
 
So the Magic Shell talk is over? :hey:
I think so. We should turn to whether anyone has tried those new M&M's with pretzels in them. They look good.
:hey: They are fan####ingtastic. Kick the #### out of flipz, I say.
Take 5 murders all comers though, right?
It's pretty ####### good.
:unsure:You coming to Balmer in March? I'll make you my honorary auction teammate.
 
:lmao:

You coming to Balmer in March? I'll make you my honorary auction teammate.
I hate to be the one to tell you this but March was a few months ago, GB.
I hate to be the one to tell you that March comes up every year, gb. They don't change the names of the months...at least so far.
You're a planner aren't you? That's a bit too far in advance for my tastes but put me down as a rock solid Tentative.

Sounds like a great time to pop my cornhole cherry. ;)

Who else will be in attendance?

Everyone that matters to you will be there. Except Krista4.
 
He's real and he's spectacularI'm still shocked GM is asking if something is real on the Innerwebs.
I want to believe....I just can't. Does everybody just make stuff up on here? Please don't tell me that. You'll ruin my life.
My last name is not really "4". Sorry, GB. :(
I am sorry but every time you talk about Mr.Krista4 i think for a second you are talking about you are referring to a 4th husband.
:lol: Not yet. :shrug:
 
For a long time I introduced my wife to people by saying "This is my frst wife, Amy." It generally got a laugh.

Then it ended up being true when we got divorced in 2006. Oops.

 
We are supposed to leave on Friday to go to [name of medium-sized Southern/Midwestern/border-state/non-Missouri-compromise-involved city] for my [alarmingly high number]th high-school reunion. I went to our [slightly less alarmingly high number]th reunion five years ago. Didn't intend to go to this one until some [people I wasn't close to in high school but are now cool] people convinced me to go.

I'm rethinking this whole thing, since it will involve (1) getting away from a job that is horribly busy and freaking me out right now and probably going to require me to work the whole time anyway, for purposes of (2) seeing people I can get more than enough contact with from Facebook.

The problem is that my [extremely whittled down since most of them are dead anyway] family was going to see us for a little bit, and I hate disappointing them.

I kind of know the answer here, but I need [you do not suck for neglecting your family for six weeks until you are scheduled to see them again anyway] reassurance.

TIA.

Is the reunion a chore or going to be good times? If it's a chore I tell the fam I'll see you in 6 and 6. /woolery
 
I'm watching Big Brother After Hours. I don't watch Big Brother. WHAT THE #### IS GOING ON HER?

Is it really just people playing pool and hanging around a hot tub. CONFUSED.

Chore for me. Even bigger chore for Mr. krista(2or4). I said to him, "If I had to cancel the trip because of work, I assume you would be OK with that?" and his eyes lit up like it was Christmas.It's a million times more about the fact that people have been very nice to me since the advent of adults on Facebook and I feel compelled to reciprocate their excitement about getting together and reliving "the good ol' days". No independent desire to do so, nor any actual memory of those days and why they might have been good. I guess it's worth mentioning that a couple of others and I arranged a Friday pre-reunion get-together for which I am responsible for at least 95% of the attendees. Still, they are good people but not anyone that I see a long-term non-Facebook-quality relationship with.Pretty much all of my reunion-related activities are based 100% on guilt. :goodposting: These are good folks.

Sounds like you've sealed your fate here. Even though it's a chore, you've made commitments. Time to suck it up, tip your servers, and get snozzled.

Aw, crap. I was thinking that my loyalties lay more with family members who planned on seeing me this weekend than with people I had not seen in X years. To be clear, the reunion is Saturday but I asked a bunch of people to meet us on Friday at a bar after dinner and had a 100% response rate, but I didn't feel so responsible for that given that they could go on without me. :lol: I don't wanna be a dickmitten.

What is a dickmitten? If you go, it's a safe bet that you'll have some fun.

Dickmitten = everything we don't want to be.I know I'm just feeling sad tonight (or, this week, or, this month), but I'm also all verklempt about Chicago for the first time since we left. In a "what have I done" sort of way.

I know what you mean about missing Chicago. I miss NJ sometimes (believe it or not). I miss being so close to my family, being so close to Philly and AC, etc. but I know that if I moved back up there tomorrow, I'd miss stuff down here in Florida too (low taxes, the beach, it not being cold in the winter time, etc.)Stick it out for a couple of years and then do a list of pro's and cons between the two places.
 
I just discovered if you try to call my company's IT help desk, but accidentally change the 818 area code to 888, instead of getting the help desk you get an adult XXX phone sex line.

That was a bit of a surprise.

Was it really so hard for you to write out Louisville?
 
Is Woz a master fisherman, or a clueless boy of a man who has no self awareness, common sense, street smarts or confidence? I'm torn...sometimes, I feel like he's a genuine person and the epitome of every boob from every sit-com ever created....and other times, I think we are all a social experiment for his insane kicks in life. There's just enough about his real life that's present to make me believe he's the real deal....but maybe that's the genius behind it all. I don't have one male friend like him, that's for sure. And I've got a lot of male friends. Maybe too many. :thumbup: What's the deal on Woz? Real or Fake?
He's real and he's spectacularI'm still shocked GM is asking if something is real on the Innerwebs.
I want to believe....I just can't. Does everybody just make stuff up on here? Please don't tell me that. You'll ruin my life.

Nipple count.
 
Pretty sure a stranger got GM
lots of possible scenario's here. I'd rank them in order of probability:-He got lost during his 6 mile run-He found a stranger and got stoned and forgot to update this thread-He was abducted-He stroked out after the first 1/2 mile1 & 2 are somewhere around the order of 96% probability.

I live in the town I grew up in, my oldest son has at least two of the same teachers at the same high school I went to and my parents and inlaws live on the same street like 3 miles away. Anyone from high school worth still seeing I meet regularly at the supermarket or ball field or playground. Reunions seem pointless.

How much time would the reunion consume? Is it a whole weekend kind of thing, with events Friday night and Saturday night, etc? My thought is, go back home and spend time with your family. Go to one of the reunion events to honor the commitment and spend the other previously-planned-reunion time working.You may be glad you went. I find that the things I'm not looking forward to doing (e.g. girls' weekends that have been planned for a while but I lack the energy to do when the time comes) end up being the most fun once I just suck it up and do it.
