GM's thread about nothing (46 Viewers)

[Marvin]

This might sound cliche, but I switched to Geico car insurance on Friday and will save a crap load of money over American Family. AmFam was going to charge us $760 for a 6 month policy. Same policy with Geico? $380. Unreal. Wish I had done that sooner.

Today snuck up on me as work has been crazy busy the last couple of days, but I forgot I agreed to take tomorrow off to hang out with my boys as they are on Spring Break. And since they are with their mom, I am foot loose and fancy free!!!! :WAKKAWAKKAWAKKA:

Suggestions? Tips? Advise? Just opened my 2nd PBR. Looking to rock out with my sock out!!!!!

Buy $380 worth of plutonium or kryptonite or whatever.

Hey, SLB. Re your last text:1. Cobra2. She probably would3. $129.564. LOL5. Mr. Dingles, Furley, Peens, Mr. Ham, and E-Mom...in that order.6. The sofa is green. The bear walks over the bridge. Adam has 4 jobs. The hammer is rusty.

ooh, ooh ... is this like a jeopardy game?1. What's your favorite Sylvester Stallone movie?2. Do you think my wife would mind if my neighbor's wife blew me?3. How much would it cost to have a professional do it?4. What's the appropriate text response if my wife finds out?5. What are 5 people that you would love to corn hole with?6. What are 4 random sentences that when strung together would make my kids laugh?

LMFAO @ both of these

You guys and your little text clique is the worst thing to happen to this thread. I feel disconnected.

Maybe it is because I've been somewhat disconnected from this thread but I don't quite understand this. I thought people outside of this thread has accused everyone that posted here of being a clique?

Of course they do. Because it is. And up until a few weeks ago I was a proud and devoted member of that clique. But since the new sub-clique started, I feel like I don't even know you guys any more. Asked for a 5 day recap and I was ridiculed and laughed at.

Ever since I got my fancy new phone a couple of weeks ago I don't know WTF is going on. Apparently Apple has a monopoly on group text software.

deleted my FB profile today. that thing caused way more problems than it was worth.

 

[bentley]

The good thing about having a BlackBerry for the office is that I don't have to pay for my own phone. At the same time, I'm pretty Shuked by this whole group text thing.

 

[SofaKings]

Strung out Hobbes?

CD's arrived today!! Thanks!

Pretty fast for the USPS.

Got mine yesterday as well! THANK YOU!

 

[SofaKings]

Baseball season starts tomorrow

This MLB.tv subscription is going to change my life. Probably for the worse, but there it is.

It's the best thing ever.

Ouch. Want to borrow mine?

nope. I feel liberated. plus I was slightly obsessed with a recent failed romance, and not being able to check her wall is an added bonus. drunk/mean spirited FB posts by others on my wall cost me two friends in the last two months, as well as causing an argument that lasted nearly a week.

Jeez. That sucks.

1. bryhamm killing it with the Jeopardy-style questions. Shtick that should not be overlooked.

2. Very sorry YSR.

3. Should give props to cosjobs for attempting to send me a package, which at least is more than my SecretSanta/keysyourass####### tried to do. Unfortunately it never made it here, but I'm sure whatever postal worker picked it up enjoyed the fine wine and Werner Herzog movies.

4. Guster is nicer than y'all even imagine.

5. I have to have one of our cats euthanized tomorrow and am more upset than one should probably be. I will not, however, start a thread about it.

6. As of Friday I'll own more Nicaraguan real estate than anyone else you know. All right, check that, probably already do. Will be adding to the empire but am appropriately freaked out and scared about it.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Are we building a compound down there?

 

[krista4]

Are we building a compound down there?

Interested? Enough room for the Pickles and any gherkins.Yes, I hate myself for saying "gherkins".

Thanks. Tripod. Black three-legged cat I've had for 10 years. Good guy. Very skittish. Had to isolate him in a bathroom and read magazines to him for ages, and it was years before I could touch him. Had a life full of more happiness and pepperoni than he ever could have imagined, but still just a ##### to have to say goodbye. More worried about his "girlfriend" than I am about anything else; she has lost one companion before she cozied up to Tripod and walked around the house screaming for a year.To Tripod, sweetest and gentlest of cats.

If you haven't seen My Best Friend yet, rent/buy ASAP. It's one of the funniest and insane things I've ever seen.

bonus: Geico pays ridiculous claims no questioned asked. (I know someone who rode a curb to the tune of 4500 in underside damage. 500 deductible and ta-da's!~@~!)

[krista4]

Not a lot great about Memphis, but we can sit outside on a gorgeous March night, watching the Mississippi and listening to music. I always forget how many songs ridiculously move me.

 

[krista4]

Ah yes, you know him. You can attest to his sweetness, that is if you ever saw him.

Fiend, yah. How am I? Seems weirdly inappropriate to grumble in the face of your sadness, but I've been harried, stressed, and overworked to all bloody hell, but it's worth it I suppose.

Did I mention I started an ambien prescription a couple weeks back? Yah.

Speaking of which, I best be getting to bed before I look down and see that it's 4am and I've been professing my undying love for Woz.

 

[HighBeams]

Used to sit at the top of the stairs and feed "Field Goal" by hand...then he'd take off again. That cat was freakin' awesome.

Ah, my work stress is even worse than the kitty-cat stuff now. And with the kitty, well, it's the pact we make when we agree to take these dogs, cats, and other creatures in. You delight us in ways we didn't know about, and we'll take care of you as best we can knowing we'll outlive you (we hope). I'm devastated in a way but accepting as well.G'night.

It's no Iowa, for sure.

I'm in the text group, here's a recap:1. ###2. ###3. Titty4. Titty5. Tanner being a curmudgeon6. Shots7. Shots

Were there any death threats? I'm thinking you guys are missing the colorful rants of a certain alcoholic manwhore.

 

[Thorn]

How does one become a member of the text clique?

Just PM your number to one of us and WA LA

 

[Thorn]

I went a month without venturing into the FFA, but I guess I'm back now. Thanks for the condolences. It sucked. Still does really.

Must have missed what happened Stu. Hope everything's okay.

Sorry Krista. "Tripod" kind of makes me LOL but not really OL given the circumstances.

 

[shuke]

Sorry to hear, Krista.

 

[shuke]

Shuke > been to Moerlein Lager House yet? I've heard decent stuff about it, but only know one person that's actually been

No, but saw the FB pic. Epic burger?

 

[YSR]

So sorry, Krista.

 

[cosjobs]

K4 - got a letter from USPS, a "Parcel Search Request" form, stapled to the original mailing address (yours) cut from the package.

Dear Customer,An empty wrapper with your address was found in the mail and is believed to have been seperated froma parcel during handling ( see attached address portion of the wrapper). If the contents of the package have not been accounted for and you wish a search to be made for the articles, please complete and return the bottom of this form and return to the Dead Parcel Branch...blah, blah blah.

Unsure if I should fill this out or not. Will you represent me if it initiates criminal proceedings against me?

 

[krista4]

Sorry Krista. "Tripod" kind of makes me LOL but not really OL given the circumstances.

It should.

Sorry to hear, Krista.

Thanks.Tripod with his girlfriend.

 

[shuke]

Can someone bring me up to speed what exactly ever happened to Krista's secret santa gift?

 

[krista4]

So sorry, Krista.

Thanks, but I feel silly being sorrowful when you have real live people you're worried about. :(

Think you're mixing me up with Woz or at worst Christo here.

Can someone bring me up to speed what exactly ever happened to Krista's secret santa gift?

Nothing sent, and therefore nothing received.

 

[shuke]

Why was nothing sent? Who's in charge around here?

 

[kevzilla]

She didn't get one. Send something to:Krista4Darko's Old CribMemphis, TN

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Why was nothing sent? Who's in charge around here?

Keys made some cryptic comment that the shipment would be late. Time passed and nothing came. Then he apparently decided to quit the entire internet out of embarassment. Defriended everyone on facebook and quit the FBG world of message boards.

 

[shuke]

Austinites, anyone seen this band?

Saw them last week. Not sure what was the better shtic, the costumes or the constant berating of the crowd.

And sorry I didn't notify, it was a quick trip and was with coworkers the whole time. I should be down plenty.

Is this a euphemism?

 

[shuke]

Lionel Ritchie is sing a country duet version of Say You Say Me right now on Letterman.

 

[shuke]

And they both look like they have two hearing aids in.

The world has passed me by.
