GM's thread about nothing (23 Viewers)

[Joe T]

I watched Inglorious Basterds over the weekend. Is it okay if I admit to not liking this very much? I thought Brad Pitt was ridiculous. I liked the Colonel quite a bit, but the rest of the cast was pretty weak. And the ending was just stupid.

You just didn't understand it. /inception

Inception = goodBasterds = barely watchable. GM would have been better served by late night showtime.

Buddy's bachelor party was this weekend. The strip club was fun, but

This happened to me a couple of years ago and Lil Wayne's "Lollipop" still has a similar effect.

Pretty much my thoughts on it as well. I liked the chick and the Colonel. It was a waste of time and cash.

I was singing "my gfs a dancer" for a week.

And you know, I'm not anti-violence or anti-gore or anything a guy with a ponytail and a harp would find offensive with regards to movie violence, but this thing was over the top with its blood and guts. It wasn't enough to just show a guy getting hit by a bat; we had to watch a man get taken to pieces by one. As much as I love the thought of Nazis being obliterated, I don't know if I'd stick around to watch it.And don't get me started on the whole Hitler dying thing....good lord. Or the guy rolling over and shooting the cinema girl after taking three rounds to the back and laying in agony. Come on...Also, can I just state for the record that I loathe and abhor bogus southern accents from mega-actors. Just hire a damn actor with an accent already. Why did that guy have to be Brad Pitt? I hated his accent the second I heard it. It wasn't Costner in JFK bad, but it sure wasn't Robert Duvall in Lonesome Dove. Wasn't Pitt horrible portraying a British accent in Snatch? I never got very far with that movie.bla bla bla

Looks good, although I'm honestly not that big a fan of mixing meat types. That would have been super awesome with more of the pork cuts and minus the roast beef and turkey.

Thank god for On Demand tv shows. Our giant daughter has been home for 10 days, and on 5 nights I have been up with her after her early morning feeding because she won't go back to sleep. With our first kid it would sometimes take 20 minutes of bouncing her to get her back to sleep. With this one, I was up from 3-5 this morning trying to get to back to sleep. Once I finally got her back into the basinette alseep it was less than an hour before she was up for her next feeding. Makes for a long day at work.

I remember those days. Can't believe I'm agreeable to do it again with wife 2.0. :X Back when my boys were this age, I didn't have On Demand or Tivo. I got stuck watching a lot of really bad television. I even got to the point where I would watch softcore porn on Showtime, not to masturbate, but to follow the plot. I could probably recite every episode of Hot Springs Hotel by memory.Maybe when I have my new batch of kids, they'll invent some sort of self feeding timer like they have for caged rabits.

Maybe you can teach them to poop those little round pellets as well.

No.Something about her face turns me off. It's like she went to college to perfect Jenny McCarthy's silly grins and goofy facial expressions, all the while prancing around in little clothing to distract us from the fact that she's annoying the piss out of us. I'm way past the stage in my life where MTV videos titillate me, especially if the sound factor detracts from my stated business at hand, so to speak.

When the mood strikes, I can turn right to hard core porn, where the women are not partially naked, they are fully naked and getting violated. Also, the background music is like, way better.

Oh how I've tried to get out of being here while they are, but unfortunately they are picking up some of my furniture with the TRAILER THAT THEY HAVE TRAILING THEIR SUV (meaning they have STUFF for us).So my thought was to go to Greenville and meet them there. You know, grease the wheels with my parents a little. Maybe stay a day or two after they left to cut down on Potential MIL time in my house in Jacksonville over the weekend.However, my last visit home didn't go so well and my BF isn't comfortable with my being in my parents' house alone without him to protect me. So, as it seems now, we are driving up Wednesday, having lunch with both sets of parents Thursday, then driving back together Friday.GD IT.

Ack. You're right (in re: what I've written). I swear things are normal-ish (at least between me and boy), I just like to share the #### here.

But under what circumstance am I stopping to watch a music video of Katy Perry? Until it was linked here, I'd never seen it, nor had I ever heard the song. Unless I'm seeking it out, I'm not going to witness it. And if I'm going to seek something out on the computer because it's got hot chicks, I'm going to seek out fully naked, not partially naked.Maybe when my kids are teenagers, I'll be faced with this more.

I need to stash a box of wine in the closet of one of the rooms we are renovating. We've been drinking a lot of pinot noir lately. Any recommendations?

I think he meant that to be a colon after "Romo".I'd go with Palmer. Then again, I forgot to pick up a kicker for Folk's bye week this week, so I can't say I've been paying great attention this year (still won this week, though ).

On the subject of wine, if any of you are interested in really good, smaller-growth wines, I've had fantastic experiences ordering from Genedoc's company. Most of his stuff is moderate to high-end, but he has hooked us up with a few good bottles in the $15-20 range, too. Really great service, listens to what you like, makes excellent suggestions.

Holy crap, this could be a MNF FF miracle.

Going into tonight I was down 78.5-32.5.

He has Romo,Roy Williams.

I have Manning, Nicks, Austin,Bryant.

Now the score is 111-89, me. Wow. I didn't think I had a chance.

Wait, what?What kind of scoring does your league have that you've gotten close to 80 points from those 4? Granted Eli has 4 TDs, but also 2 picks. And Bryant and Austin haven't don't anything.Color me confused.

TD only, longer gets you more points, with a small bonus for over 300 passing, over 100 rushing/receiving.That last TD makes it 123.5-89.

Two of those TDs are to Nicks. It adds up.

7 TDs tonight. Unreal.

 

[RudiStein]

I'm up by 30 with Witten still playing. The other guy is done. Oh, and I did it with Britt and Lee Evans on my bench.

If I had played them I'd have over 200 pts in a league where 115 is about the average per week.
