GM's thread about nothing (25 Viewers)

The dad of my SO said this tonight while watching the Pack/Iggles: "You know what those guys are probably saying when they score a touchdown? Allah Akbar!" :mellow:
:blackdot:
He was implying that all black men are Muslims, I believe. :shrug:
Oh. Really? Huh. Is this something people do?Did he get the crickets treatment?
I was the only one he said it to, and I didn't respond. It's not his usual MO, he just has that built-in old-guy racism.
 
I swear I am not going to become the girl who only posts about her cats, but earlier today, I noticed convicted killer cat dry-humping a blanket on our sofa. I took some video to show my BF and whilst filming, I noticed something: the cat had a wad of blanket in his mouth. All I could think about was GM and I :thumbup:

I thought you were married? :confused:
 
I just got home and the stupid dog chewed up my nasal rinse thing. Again. He gets so upset when I leave he won't even take a treat from me. He almost always get revenge by chewing up one of the last things I touched.

 
So, my family (parents, siblings, and all their kids) does one big get-together for Thanksgiving and Christmas combined, which is much easier to schedule than trying to get 30-40 people together twice.

In addition, all of the siblings and the parents get together close to each holiday just for an evening of cards, drinking, and snacking. It's a good time, and I really enjoy hanging out with them.

Anyway, this year, the latter events have caused me to miss

Oh man, I have never heard of them before. One song and I'm hooked!!!! :rolleyes:

Final bets for tonight:

Parlay: AU-3/u74 - $200

1st half u37.5 - $100

Guess I'll start drinking at kickoff

shuke and jplvr (I think)> can I burn a mattress?
Code?
I'm guessing a question on food is hidden in there :thumbdown:
No. I really mean to ask if an actual mattress is okay to burn.About a month ago, we had a mattress in our garage that we will never use (not that great a mattress and I had a couple that were better). I convinced him that it would be picked up within 24 hours if we just put it on the street - we had previously put out a 48" and 72" sinktop and they were gone before morning.In fact, we bet on it. I said that they would be gone by morning. We woke up, mattress still there. I claimed that "by morningi" I meant "by noon", knowing he would go to the office.That next morning, I singlehandedly moved it into our storage shed.Thursday morning of last week, he left for 48 hours. I dragged the mattress back out to the street and put a "FREE MATTRESS" ad on Craigslist. Nothing.About 20 minutes before he got home Friday night, I made the "holy cow, someone dumped a mattress on our curb!" phone call. It's been there since, and we had a huge storm today. Am thinking that at this point, we just let it dry and cut little pieces here and there for burning.

There isn't a city dump where you live?

Man, lighten up GB.
 
shuke and jplvr (I think)> can I burn a mattress?
My brother once decided that because it was smooth and flat, an abandoned mattress would be a good place to launch a model rocket. After burning several acres of brush and a building at our local junior high, he concluded that no, you should not burn mattresses.
 
I'm not sure I've ever pulled this hard for a team (Oregon) in the BCS Championship. BF is an "ALL SEC ALL THE TIME" kind of guy.

I've grilled steaks, made twice-baked potatoes, opened a nice bottle of wine, done laundry and dishes and may even be open to suggestion for the rest of tonight - all in a preemptive apology for how poorly I am going to act during tonight's game.

Really good. I'm a big fan of brass.
