GM's thread about nothing (18 Viewers)

[Bogart]

So, this. There's no situation in which a guy could wear these, but for some reason my libido is hardwired to bump any girl in these up two whole offdee points. Perhaps it's because of the easy-access hatch in back.

Those are super hot. And I agree about the hatch in back. Tres sexy.

Ugh. My poor dog has been at the emergency vet all weekend with what appears to be pancreatitis, thanks to sausage grease that I poured on his food Thanksgiving night. This sucks.

:( He going to be OK? Would never have thought that would be an issue.

wiki:"Eighty percent of pancreatitis is caused by alcohol..."feeding the pooch booze, Bob?

Is this supposed to be funny?

How long does it take to start throwing up if you have food poisoning? Twelve hours?I have about 45 minutes.

I've only had it once, and had severe diahreah about 8 hours in.And no, I don't have a ####ing clue on how to spell diahreah.

me neither...I always have to run that one through spell check.

I went through a "Lynch Phase" too. Looking back his stuff is hit or miss.

It's not a phase, it's a way of life.

A man can do a lot of living in 45 minutes.

Unfortunately, I have to go to work. Probably a false alarm.

What do you think gave you food poisoning?

Chicken salad. :X

Here's a fun game. Let's pretend I am 87 years old, from another country, have never seen TV and don't read the papers. Explain to me as best you can what is going on in this thread:

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Thank you in advance.

THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT THEM NEW FANGLED EEELECTRIC PIN-BALL GAMES, GRAMPA.

Is it a battle of video games? Elder Scrolls vs Skyrim? Which one is better?

Screw it, I quit. I'm going to go back to my novels.

Probed this just for you, GM. My results (skip the chit-chat if you're so inclined):

FBGYSR: i know you don't keep up with the GM thread

FBGAHRN: It's really a time investment. If want a game a you can sink an hour or two into once in a while

[Fightin Donkey]

anyone here use nook or kindle?

The wife has had one for over a year, and she converted me back in August (much to the waving fingers of my lit snob friends).What's up?

My sister has a nook. She cant upload books when she's connected to her wifi at home, but if she squats on her neighbors connection, she can download them easy.Any ideas why? Is this a common problem with the nook? Some setting or something on the router?

she can squat on my connection anytime. HEYOHHHH

Router? I don't even KNOW HER! HEYOOOHHHH.

Turns out that Cyber Monday sales extend to Vegas hotel/casinos as well.

I know the song Blue Velvet.

Blue velvet in my little boy's smile! Blue velvet in that slow southern style.

Great song!

I have never seen Blue Velvet.

According to my students, "it's old."First time I heard that was this semester.

I think they're saying I'm old.

:(

It is old.And not all that great.

OH BULL####!(as shuke would say it)

I went through a "Lynch Phase" too. Looking back his stuff is hit or miss.

Oh it's definitely hit or miss, but Blue Velvet is a hit. Fire Walk With Me, on the other hand, sucked bad.

I actually think "Wild at Heart" is his best. "What do you F***ots want?"

"And I want to apologize to you gentlemen for referring to you as homosexuals."

xThe correct answer here is The Straight Story.

Put my order in but it is under review from the fraud department because I changed the shipping address. You know, to MY HOUSE. <_<

Also, I put The Polar Express in last night and both boys immediately climbed on my lap. They stayed there the whole movie, one under each arm, just taking in the magic. It was pretty awesome.

Obviously I'm jealous of the haul TU got from Frosty, but what's a d-lister such as myself to do. It's the little things.

not sure. If it was I did not review it, as I just opened it. I think I got it at Central Market. Its widely available. I also got a couple more reds I will be pouring tonight (got em from Costco this afternoon). Stay tuned for increasingly drunken reviews

Its kind of like koolade, but sometimes I'm in the mood fro something light, fruity and chilled. I wish it came out in the summer. But I recommend giving it another shot with your expectations set. Not the worst $9 gamble you'll ever make. It is from Burgundy.
