GM's thread about nothing (27 Viewers)

get a dog if you plan to walk it daily, run it around the yard, clean its ##### and really pay attention to it like a family member

too many people get dogs and do none of this

 
I'd probably eat a tub of whale spew if it meant getting my dog Kona back. He died way too young and was the greatest dog ever. Stupid cancer. His replacement dog Miss Cleo, on the other hand....I'd probably let a whale rape me to keep her where she is today. :unsure:

Although my boys did love Miss Cleo and at times...so did I. Like when she wanted to go for night walks where I could furtively smoke mary jane away from the prison warden. :mellow:

 
Can someone direct me to a dog ownership thread? My wife and I are not pet people..but I think with 2 kids we are getting close to getting a dog.. possibly soon.We have no clue what to expect and are woefully unprepared. I cant search the forum for "dog" cause its 3 letters. :bag: Also, any advice in this thread would be equally helpful..but mostly just looking for a thread to get me started.
If you're not "dog people", don't do this. It's like an inlaw that never leaves...and you have to pick up it's shiit.
To completely disagree here -I've never really been a huge pet person. I had dogs growing up, and they were always cool, but didn't want one of my own. I always thought cats were stupid.When I first started working here (you can probably find the thread still), there were 3 stray kittens that walked into our offices here. I was worried the last one wouldn't find a home, so I took him home.He has behavioral issues, he sometimes can't find the litter box, and he sheds like crazy.But to me, he's the greatest thing in the world, and you'd be hard-pressed to find any object (and very few people) that I wouldn't give up for this stupid cat. You don't have to be a "pet person" to fall in love with a pet. Sometimes, you just take one home.
No comparison. Did you read my next post? Cats are independent creatures. Every time we left for a night, we had to get someone to care for the dogs. The cat is good for a week...fill his bowls and change his litter. There are exceptions to everything but if you travel at all or aren't home a lot, rethink Brad!

Happy 4/20 GM! Whats the new Mrs' stance on happy grass?
 
Mrs. TF's parent's are deceased, but I say "Love you" to her grandmother. Mrs. TF and both of my parents regularly exchange "love yous"

:shrug:

JTC's paranoid thread about how we'll regret what we write and what people know about us in 50 years has me a bit...paranoid to discuss my or my family's views about controversial subjects like happy grass. Though truthfully, that cat exited my Crown Royal velvet bag for me years ago, so my permanent record is stained like my bong soaked bachelor carpet I bought to celebrate my 2008 emancipation. Suffice it to say, I get treated like a big boy now, capable of determining what's best for me and when. Armed with a long leash, I tend to take up less and less grass, so to speak. And I'm much much happier for it.But for the record, the Mrs's is soooooooo cooooooooool (just not for the next 9 months or so) :cool:

Yeah, that's where I'm at with my in-laws. I tell them I love them and my wife does that with my family and vice versa. But we're a bunch of drunken looneys and I say "I LOVE YOU" like Early adopts children.

Mrs. SLB has never, ever, nagged me about ANYTHING. That's the good news. The bad news is I've already burned at least 20 years off my life. Pretty sure that's part of her plan.

This makes me feel so much less special.

I don't get much in the way of nagging either. I'd never considered ulterior motives. So, you know, THANKS FOR THAT.
 
My dad use to be a happy partaker years ago. It was never something hidden from me. I picked shrooms with them when I was about 7 or 8 (hi social workers!) My grandmother was a very bitter woman, always pissed off with someone but my dad was her golden child...first to leave the nest and actually prosper, only ever returning for Sunday dinners bearing gifts. When my aunt, the youngest in the family and most screwed up, got married the entire family was at my grandparents. Dad comes in from a happy gathering outside with something on his coat. Nan brushes it off with her hand asking "whats that on your coat?" to which dad kind of shrugs and redirect. " Savoury!" nan declares. "God love you helping with the coldplates! :wub: "

The woman OVVNED denial!

 
Got an email about my sons trip to Europe. If you registered before last Friday, the entered your name in a draw for 1 of 3 vouchers for $100 off your trip. He won one. :pickle:

And in the vein of things I don't care that come out in 50 years - hubby agreed to him going if he was willing to cover the cost himself. He was, we all agreed. Son agreed knowing I'd agreed to pay half. What you don't know won't hurt you.

Yeah, but I LOVE YOU, love you.
 
That should be our next movie plot - The Chaperones.

Me, SLB, Sacamano get recruited by Tanner at his school to pretend to be parents in order to get this trip to Europe for some sort of ulterior motive by Tanner. Homer Jay could have a bit part. Hell, I could write parts for about 15 of you right now.

Do IT!
 
Drinking scotch right now, on the couch next to the aforementioned cat. Why? If I go to bed early (around 10ish), he jumps and impales himself on the door until I come out.

Now he's sleeping next to me. About an hour until I can safely go to bed.

 
I don't get star struck very often. The quality of celebrity I've been around since I was a kid is so high, nothing much nowadays can faze me. I've been on the White House front lawn, 30 feet away as Reagan and Gorbachev announced a nuclear arms-reduction treaty. I saw Stephen Hawking once. Listened in as Mickey Mantle, Duke Snider, and Willie Mays traded stories over dinner. Tony Hawk, Mel Gibson, Terry Bradshaw, Don Knotts, and William Shatner have all been "co-workers". I've given Pat Morita a ride to work in my car. I think I recently told the story of my lunch with Charlie Sheen.

But I'm leaving work today and I see this tall, lanky bald guy talking on his cell phone, walking to his car, and I was just stunned for a second. "Holy ####! That's

!!!!" Hadn't been that star struck in a long, long time.

I don't think "weed on your record" is going to be a big deal 10 years from now, let alone 20 or so.

Hell, it's probably less damning than an ankle tattoo right now.

Yep, videoguy alias. Buck, I work in TV. Nothing exciting, a lot more boring than it used to be. But my life does have random adventure in it from time to time.

Anyway, as soon as I saw him walking by I hit the brakes and just rolled by him real slow. Like I said, he was talking on the phone, but he turned and looked at me for a second, all confused why this car was just inching past. We made eye contact for just a moment ( :wub: ). I couldn't think of anything else to say but "Ned? Ned Ryerson?"

Unfortunately, my window was still rolled up. I don't think he heard me. :mellow:

 
Dibs on the role of the 34-year-old lush who is just there for the wine.
Quit trying to take my job.
YSR = The gal we're forced to recruit to legitimatize the whole thing. She's a wreck at work/home...struggling with a guy she is losing patience with (played fabulously by KevZilla) and would walk away and lie if it meant a trip to Europe.Sacamano = Think Daniel Stern in City Slickers. He almost has to go. Doesn't want to, but screwed his marriage up so bad that he has to run away.This could be a fun write....anyone?

Some guy doing an Earth Day interview on TV: "I've read that 80% of all pollution in the oceans starts on land." in an incredulous tone.

My thought: WTF else would it come from? Fish aren't throwing away a lot of trash. I'm surprised it's not higher.

What am I missing?
