GM's thread about nothing (55 Viewers)

[Dr. Awesome]

I started to reply to that list but I got bored and tired. Let's just say I'd pay a lot of money for three minutes with Kate Winslet. Or Maryilyn Monroe. Had a poster of her on my wall in high school.

I actually went through and answered the entire list. Toward the bottom, though, I didn't know many people and decided to focus on Googling Mayim Bialik for the next 14 minutes.

How'd that go? Happy?

It appears that aging well has been more the issue.

Holy hell, time has not been kind.

I opened a box of Black Box chard a week or two ago, and was really disappointed. Tasted like gasoline with up to 10% corn ethanol. I didn't touch it again until tonight, thinking that because it's in a box, it wouldn't get all skunked up and vinegary, either. It was surprisingly goood. Apparently you need to let it "breathe", such as it is, for an exaggeratedly long time.

[Dr. Awesome]

Some on that list made me shake my head. Rosie O'Donnell? Roseanne? Monique? Kathy Bates?

No Sara Rue?

What about that chick who won that award for that movie that was based on that book? Yuck.

Thank god I did not see her on that list. She seems like a fun gal (aren't all fat people jolly?) but

My wife's a big fan of the Inglenook chardonnay. $8.99 baby.

 

[Frostillicus]

OMG Sammi came back? Ugh.

I was going to defend her but I just can't do it. Her body isn't that bad (though it's nothing great). But that face...

Oof

Angie Harmon.

Yes please!Links, people. Include them.

Gorgeous. Did she get fat?

Too old for Blossom. Hell, too old, period.

The kerfuffle over sex ed at Northwestern reminded me of the the same class at UT. Thirty years ago.

I'm finished.

 

[RudiStein]

Rudi> question: how do the Jeopardy producers present the "interesting tidbit" question to you? You know, the thing after the first break... "Julie... it says here that you really enjoy scrapbooking and you once had a HILARIOUS mishap with some rubber cement". Do they ask for something that sets you apart? A funny story?I'm always curious as to what my friends would submit as their 'blurb' (and probably ask the question in more social situations than I should) and frankly have no idea what I would submit as mine.

They have you write out as many stories as possible ahead of time. I think they wanted like 5. Then someone on the staff picks which ones are best and type them on a card. Alex decides which one he wants to ask you during the first break.

 

[Frostillicus]

Nothing like having to feed a crying baby to remind you that staying up and drinking all night is a bad idea. Kids are such a buzzkill.

 

[The Goat]

Angie Harmon.

Gorgeous. Did she get fat?

No. I felt the need to try and steer this thread in a more positive direction.

I'm told Kirstie will be on Dancing With the Stars.

That's a serious workout, could be good for her.

[St. Louis Bob]

So the service is over tonight, I wanted to cry like a baby but I couldn't, and my parents say they want to get something to eat at my GB's place. Cool. My Dad gets a steak sandwich and he asks my Mom if she wants his pickle. She says " yeah, later." My Dad looks at her like squirrels are shooting out of ears and she says "Bobby didn't say it but I know he was thinking it."

I love my Mom.

If it's female, yes.

my ticket in Australia was $150 for going 105kmph in a 100kmph zone.

Did you ever pay that?

no. I sent a letter to appeal it and am still waiting to hear back.EDIT: I just checked on the status of my ticket online and it says:



Obligation Closed

The obligation you have entered has been closed and requires no further attention.

WINNING

On what grounds? That you're American?

 

[Early_10]

Early, can't you just pay a crooked judge like here in the States?

To do what? I plan on sticking to facts and avoiding giving my opinion. I can't afford to shoot myself in the foot and piss either side off. What are the chances on being asked opinion anyway? It's not like I'm a professional. I'm sadly coming to the realization that adopting them would be a mess. How do I replace the income support while caring for them? I can work at something else to make more money but not enough to pay for their care as well. And I hate daycares. I have always worked twice as hard from home to be able to be here with the kids but I don't see being able to do that. What I need is a lottery win. But I don't buy tickets because they're a waste of money. Anyway, I'm in court today. Not looking forward to it.

 

[Early_10]

Let's take things into chunksville. Queen Latifah. I would.

Her character in Set It Off turned me off. I want to be the dominant.

Today is hubbys 39th birthday. Gift ideas? I've covered the obvious.

I'm gonna buy lottery tickets too. Pick me some numbers, only one each. These have to be GREAT numbers. Go!

Use 39. You need a number > 31. So many people play birthdays, that when you see all 6 numbers come out 31 and below, the pie gets sliced multiple ways.

My local hockey team is having a Charlie Sheen Night

Locker Room, Show Business

Bakersfield Hockey Team Jumps on Charlie Sheen Media Bandwagon

By Richard Horgan on March 4, 2011 8:00 AM

The tiger sky appears to be the limit for Charlie Sheen media reverberations. How else do you explain this March 3rd press release from the Bakersfield Condors, an East Coast Hockey League (ECHL) franchise?

The team has announced that their March 12th home game against the Idaho Steelheads will also now be “Charlie Sheen Night.” A few weeks ago, we would have had to make this stuff up; but not anymore. Among the aspects of the winning one-night themed promotion:

- Half-price admission for anyone who shows up dressed as a Sheen character;

- Free entry to those with proof of a recent clean drug test;

- Two-for-one Tiger Blood Icees.

Sheen’s goddess girlfriends will be honorary Condor team captains for the night, and the release states that anyone who shows up with the equivalent of a Sheen episode’s salary can straight out buy the team. “We would invite Charlie to come up to the game and participate in a ceremonial puck drop and just have fun for the night with our fans,” says Condors President Matthew Riley. “We’ll even give him the ticket special for dressing up like himself.”

This is a brilliant bit of promotion, because let’s face it, before today, how many of us had ever heard of the Bakersfield Condors? And there’s sure now to be ridiculous media coverage of the March 12th match.

I always thought The Fog was a better name than The Condors. But the mascot looked like a demonic fart. Link

I thought they should have changed their mascot to Mel Gibson after their coach made those anti-Semitic remarks a few years back.

If you like sorority chicks and autotuned vocals, but weren't sure if the two could work together, worry no more.

I can't get this GD song out of my head now. Better than Yung Wyte, BTW. Low bar but there it is.
