GM's thread about nothing (43 Viewers)

[St. Louis Bob]

My wife is trying to make me go insane. This ADD thing WITH HER is getting out of hand. Any mention of her lack of attention, focus and complete inability to have a concept of time is taken as a personal insult.

For example:

I get Cal's correct medicine this morning and he is on his last pill. I ask her if she got it refilled, she says no. I ask her why and she says what's the big deal, I have the script in my purse. Fine. She calls me about 4 at the office says she doesn't have the script and need me to run to the doctor to pick it up. Oh yeah and she needs me home by 5:45 because Dylan has a fever and Cal has swim practice. I say something like "this is what I'm talking about. You got off work at what 2? You just now checked to find the script? So once again it's up to me to take care of everything?" That didn't go over to well with her. So I leave the office, fight the traffic and pick up the script. Drop it off at Walgreen's and come home mad as hell. The phone rings about 10 minutes after I'm home and it's Walgreen's. She did pick up the script and she did drop it off to be filled and it has been ready for pick up since Saturday.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

If you're slimming 1:48 am, if not 11:51 pm.

 

[kevzilla]

I'll say 4:20. Whatever time you leave, it'll be 4:20.

Good God.

 

[Incogneto]

Today for lunch I had .68 lbs of soup, roasted red pepper & tomato, and a 1.21 lb salad. That's without dressing. Total cost, $11.00.

The soup was divineBOVINE.

ETA

Sac, it was a spinach salad, not a fleck of lettuce was involved.

Don't let these guys get you down. Marriage is awesome. It's like a roommate who won't let you have sex with anyone else, uses your money and your credit to buy things you don't want, and asks you to do the half of the chores involving physical labor, danger, or heavy lifting. If you're lucky, you'll even have someone to try to convince your son not to play football. It's totally underrated.

 

[Gadzooks]

I'll be working pretty late tonight. I'll send a prize pack to whoever guesses the closest time (Central time) that I actually leave. I'll post here when I do.I haven't decided what I'm going to put in it yet. You may not want it.

It would halp if I knew what you did for a living. You're not the guy that runs the comedy club are you?

I ship medical equipment. End of Q1 for one of our customers and end of Q4 for another.

So, are you staging shipments or are you doing associated paperwork and administration?

Yes and yes

I love prize packs!!! I'm going with 11:17.

I love prize packs!!! I'm going with 11:17.

It's 11:32 CDT as I type this. Unless I missed someone you win, with SLB a close 2nd at 11:51pmPM your address and you get a prize pack...well, it might be more like a Righetti bag of crap but oh well.

 

[-fish-]

Had a frightening experience doing my taxes today. I've been putting it off a bit for a couple reasons. I sold my house in a short sale last year because of my pending divorce, and the laws regarding debt forgiveness are a little murky. Although I was pretty sure I wasn't going to have to pay taxes on the nearly $200K in loan debt that was written off, I wasn't absolutely positive (mostly because of one opinion that I got from someone who should have known better). Also, determining this debt was basically the last step necessary before finalizing a divorce that I never really wanted, so I was kind of avoiding it.

Anyway, I'm using tax software, figuring that if it says I owe the full worst case scenario amount I'll take it to a CPA and see if I can qualify under a different hardship exception that I'm borderline on since we haven't actually filed the divorce papers yet. I put in all of the information, and it says I owe $55,000. I get sort of sick to my stomach and stare at the screen for a while. Finally, I figure I'll print it out and take it to the CPA next week. Turns out that the software doesn't run the statutory exemption until the very end, so on the last click it changes from owing $55,000 to owing $71.

Now I get to go get my divorce finalized, but at least I don't owe the IRS on top of it. Yay me.

That would have been a great idea if I had planned ahead. My stash is in the bedroom where the fiancee is currently sleeping. She would appreciate it none too much if she even knew I had it

 

[Dr. Awesome]

Your fiance doesn't know you smoke weed?

 

[Samuel L Bronkowitz]

Your fiance doesn't know you smoke weed?

No, she doesn't...she knows I "did".And I only partake once, maybe twice a year. One nug will last me quite a while. She was out of town last weekend and a buddy dropped some off before our draft. I have a tiny bit left. I'll probably forget about it and find it sometime in July or something.

Perhaps I could share some of my winnings from the prize pack with you. But I'm keeping anything that relates to monkeys, freeze pops or Betty White.

Fictitious prize packs/bags of crap you'd send various FBGers?Would require some research....

Things I Do to Amuse Myself Part 31:

Our 'today in history' today was about the opening up of the Eiffel Tower. I asked the kids if any of them had been to Paris (not that outrageous for my school).

One girl raised her hand. She's kind of a Schleprock.

Me: Did you go up in the Eiffel Tower?

Girl: Yes

Me: Pretty neat isn't it?

Girl: Yeah

Me: How long did it take to get to the top.

Girl: I don't know.

Now I'm thinking 'screw it'. The only kid in class that has actually been in the Eiffel Tower and she's got the personality of a lug-nut.

Me: Did you go to McDonald's when you were in Paris?

Girl: I don't think so.

Me: (to the class) You know what they call a Quarter Pounder in France?

Kids: No.

Me: Royale with Cheese. You know why? Anyone? It has to do with measurements.

Kid named Chris: Oh! They use metrics over there?

Me: Check out the big brain on Brett!

Chris: Brett???

Me: Nevermind. I just won.

We had a teacher like you in high school Rudi. He was our music/band teacher, complete smart ### that only a couple of the kids really got his humour. I remember fighting with hubby in music class one day and this teacher calls us out of class. He says, "you know the two of you are going to end up married."

Bad to worse, Goggins is back. Jeez.

Jim11 = LHUCKS has blown my mind.

Oh, and Shuke...nice win by the Reds! I'll take Axford off your hands if you don't want him.

Pretty sure they're not. Are they?

Jim11 = LHUCKS has blown my mind.

it was a really odd (and out of character) post from Jim11 to show up in a random thread like that, but I put the odds of them being related in any way at less than 1%.

 

[RudiStein]

Post in question:

On UK ML.God, I love being part of Wildcat Nation.

How do you like it now?

Ever wonder why everyone hates you?

I don't. BTW, how did the Raiders do last game?

Pretty sure Jim11 is saying that he doesn't wonder why people hate Lhucks.

 

[YSR]

I know nothing about Jim11 but LHUCKS is a real person, certainly not a Joe Bryant or Dodds alias. As tired as I am of LHUCKS and how he riles me/other people up, I'm more tired of people claiming he's an JB/DD alias.**** I know this isn't what GM is claiming, I just want to get this off my chest

None of us have sharted ourselves in public lately. I guess we've all upped our fiber intake.

it's not even fun anymore. i'm jim11. i found a funny wizard picture and a proxy ip years ago. if i'd known that i'd be helping turn this board into the political hellhole it is today, i would never have started. i'm sorry.

The way she landed resulted in her straddling my face. One of my teammates yelled out "rhymes with winning!!!"

I have a LOT of catching up to do here. Worth it so far.

Awesome. Looks like I have my Best Man for the wedding. All posters in the GMTAN are invited to the wedding. It'll be a casual reception, Cat Shirts and Dragon Shirts are acceptable under the dress code. Obviously, YSR and I will have to go over more of the details, but we will keep you posted. (can't wait for the bachelor party!!!!)

Just so you know, ACP will want to integrate the tuxedo shirt he has on standby for my real wedding, so let's open things up a little on dress code, shall we?

Stop trying to control EVERYTHING! We're not even married yet and you're making all the decisions!Awe, this is our first fight. I'm glad it was captured in the GMTAN so we can always look back and giggle at how crazy we were when we were young.

 

[Early_10]

Think you both missed the young boat a couple of years ago.

 

[bentley]

About to head a few houses down to my buddy Joel's place to continue our neverending bull#### session. Hoping to get drunk enough to post stuff in the FFA that I don't remember in the morning, but not so drunk that we break out the guitars and try to serenade the neighborhood. This is particularly important since I only know two chords sober and get worse when I'm drunk.

 

[Samuel L Bronkowitz]

I wish I was bentley's neighbor.

 

[bentley]

I wish I was bentley's neighbor.

I forgot to mention that he has a Purple Heart from Vietnam. So there's a third level of drunk where he starts sharing all the gory details of Charlie in the bush and kids just out of high school being mowed down all around him. I try to avoid that level.Unfortunately, I'm home early and nothing notable happened. But my head is a little heavy.
