GM's thread about nothing (25 Viewers)

[Gadzooks]

Had that "40 under 40" awards event thing last night. As you recall I had to select a song that would play as I was introduced and walked up to the stage to receive my award and have my picture taken and then sit on stage with the other winners. An added bonus that I wasn't aware of was that prior to the event we had a private open bar cocktail reception for an hour. I took full advantage of this.

When they made the introductions, they gave a brief bio on all of us and then said the winner's name and the person would walk up to the stage as the crowd would applaud and then the chosen "theme song" would play. I was one of the last to be introduced. The first person chose "Beautiful Day" by U2. Most of the others were stuff like "A Moment Like This" or "Good Life" I quickly realized that I might be the only person who took this "theme song" business as a joke. But then some oddball selected "Staying Alive" and did some disco moves as he walked up to the stage. Another person had some rap song. So I felt a little better as I get ready to go up, but then again I was a little drunk so I was more concerned with not tripping or falling down as I walk on stage.

The speaker began talking about all of my accomplishments and background info and then he said, "OK folks, put your hands together for Mr. Gadzooks" I slowly walked up to the stage as the crowd clapped (about 8 of my co-workers were in the front row along with my parents) And then the sound system belted out the beautiful voice of Mr. Lionel Brockman Richie: "Hello... Is it me you're looking for? I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your smile...." Most of the clapping stopped as most people had a confused look on their face as they were realizing what the song was and then most started laughing and clapping louder. As I approached the stage there was an elderly woman in a wheelchair that I didn't know, but I stopped looked at her, did a double fist-pat to my heart and pointed to her and winked. Got on stage and took the picture and then sat down while all of the other award winners were telling me how awesome my song was. The speaker then said how weird it was that they put on this big event and now the only thing people will remember about the night is that some weirdo picked a Lionel Richie song for his music. The rather heavy set woman sitting next me whispered to me: "haters gonna hate" I whispered back "lovers gonna love". It was pretty awkward for me and pudgy after that.

I like Tampa, but half the people there are from Buffalo

The other half are from Cleveland. Tampa is unpleasant.

Well, things are going swell around here. I think I mentioned in here how I got some pretty bad viruses on my work laptop and stayed up all night trying to fix it because I had to get some work done, on a Saturday night. Well, after numerous attempts by various IT guys to fix it, it became impossible even to get it to boot so they had to reimage it. Unfortunately I haven't backed up my .pst file for years (I thought it was automatically backed up to our network drive). 7 years worth of email gone. You want to see an email hoarder? I probably save 50 emails a day, all in a very organized file system. A lot of these emails contain documents that I usually don't save, because I find it easier to search through my saved emails. So on top of being swamped due to traveling for 2 weeks when I basically did not have a functioning computer for the last half of it, now I've lost all that crap. I finally had to go back to my foot doc this morning. I wasn't supposed to see him until my toe surgery in November, but my plantar fasciitis in my other foot has become unbearable. I could barely get around yesterday. So he gave me a cortisone shot and put me in a walking boot for 3-4 weeks. Awesome. What a pain in the ### this thing is. Especially since I drive a manual and have to screw with taking it off and putting it back on whenever I have to drive. On top of that my wife has been feeling horrible, although the last two days have been an improvement.A lot of bad karma ever since I blew hack off in Chicago.

Sorry to hear GB.Hang in there, thing's will turn around.

 

[Mr.Pack]

Watching an episode of Honey Boo Boo so I could know what it was.

A) I might go ahead and kill myself when it is over. No real need to go on anymore

7) I actually recognize this triceraops (sp?) of a woman from an episode of "Toddlers & Tiaras" I watched once last year.

∞) Assuming these people are part of the 47% Romney was talking about, I would be shocked to learn if this show took place in a Blue state. Just a guess.

I'm rooting for one of those trains that passes by the house to kind of derail a little.

I find this a little hotBut oddly enough not this

Oh yeah

I am now OK with not bringing a lunch today. Suddenly I'm not hungry.

[Gadzooks]

Went on Match in August, sent out a few emails but wasn't really giving a full effort. Started texting with this one girl and we really hit it off. Been texting and talking on phone for almost a month. She lives in RI and I live in Mass, we are about an hour away from each other. Strangely she works in Mass but her work location is an hour away from me in a different direction. Great personality and we have a lot in common. She is really into sports, she plays in a softball league in the summer and a volleyball league in the winter. She played softball in college and went to college on a track scholarship. (And yes I already inquired about any lesbian activities and she has denied partaking in any of that) She's 33 so she's much closer in age to me than the 23 YO was and I could immediately sense the difference between maturity levels of her and the 23 YO and realize how hypnotized I was by the 23 YO's magical devil vageena.

One quick thing about how her and I have gotten along. She LOVES all the New England sports teams and even though I live here, the only local team I like is the Celtics. She was ok with this as long as I wasn't a Yankee fan. I told her that I've been and Orioles fan since I've been potty trained. She replied "that's ok, Cal Ripken, Brady Anderson, there a good organization, great ballpark". This gave me an insta-boner (remember what that's like Tanner?) All my life, every relationship I've been in I would end up talking to the girl about sports and explain my mostly non-gay man crush on Ripken and how is most likely the son of God. And every girl would end up liking Cal due to my ability to more or less brain wash them into liking him. Most girls weren't really into sports so they didn't really know who he was though they might have heard his name before. It blew me away that this new girl from Match actually brought up Cal's name first and threw in Brady Anderson's name as well. This probably seems dumb to most of you, but it was huge to me for some reason. Bottom line is that we have really hit off.

Tonight is the night we meet face to face (and hopefully boy parts to girl parts) We're both working a little late tonight so I told her that I would drive out and meet her someplace near her work to make it easier. She told me that since we were getting a late start, that she already booked a hotel room near "my neck of the woods". I replied "wow, this is gonna be easier than I thought" (I included the winky smiley face thing in honor of WOZ) The hotel she booked is literally 4 minutes from my house. I REALLY like how this is shaping up. However, the only thing about the Hotel room that scares me is that now I have Chris Hanson "To Catch a Homer Predator" vibe about showing up at a hotel to meet a girl from the internet. Should be fine though, we're friends on the FaceBook so she seems like a real person and not an undercover FBI agent (though that would make for a great thread tomorrow) So the plan is for me to meet her at the Hotel and then go out for drinks and see "what happens".

I'll give an update as to how everything goes. I'm hoping that I can't provide an update tonight because I'll be busy making hotel pron all night. In which case the update will be tomorrow. Gotta admit, it's very strange to meeting someone for the first time when I feel like I already know everything about her from talking for the last month. Please think happy thoughts for me and my ding-dong tonight.

I love you.

 

[Marvin]

She replied "that's ok, Cal Ripken, Brady Anderson, there a good organization, great ballpark". This gave me an insta-boner (remember what that's like Tanner?)

No. Sorry. I've never gotten an erection from hearing the names of baseball players. But I'm not going to judge or label you for it.

 

[Jaysus]

I don't care how good this gadzooks guy is at the internet; I will not think about his ding-dong tonight.

Love you Zooks but you are treading in a very dangerous place in online dating - getting to know the person too well before meeting. Sets a picture in your mind that sometimes is hard for the girl to live up to without even going into whether there will be chemistry or not ftf. I hope you get stinky fingers tonight but, in general, online daters should be met at the soonest possible opportunity without a lot of back and forth beforehand.

Not to mention you've set the expectation that you will spend a bunch of time talking on the phone. You may enjoy it now, but eventually she'll have trouble understanding you due to the echo caused by having your head in the oven.

Thropas.What level of texts would you like to receive from the group during this date:

A) Powder's "GET ME OFF THIS LIST" level silence.

B) Normal shenanigans: pics of people sitting on couches, Homer f-bombs, YSR acting like our mom, etc.

C) Full on text storm including shot videos that makes her wonder if you either run a porn site or deal ecstasy.

I'd have to go with Avery White Rascal because when i first looked at it I thought it read Angry White Racist.

I will consider this the top option, since I am pretty sure I am not driving. Wasn't sure if I would be missing out on something if I missed one.

Obviously I would go with Angry White Racist if that was on tap.

Damn Mississippi public schools. There were always 5. But back in the day we called it the Antarctic Ocean. Now it's called the Southern Ocean.

Had that "40 under 40" awards event thing last night. As you recall I had to select a song that would play as I was introduced and walked up to the stage to receive my award and have my picture taken and then sit on stage with the other winners. An added bonus that I wasn't aware of was that prior to the event we had a private open bar cocktail reception for an hour. I took full advantage of this.

When they made the introductions, they gave a brief bio on all of us and then said the winner's name and the person would walk up to the stage as the crowd would applaud and then the chosen "theme song" would play. I was one of the last to be introduced. The first person chose "Beautiful Day" by U2. Most of the others were stuff like "A Moment Like This" or "Good Life" I quickly realized that I might be the only person who took this "theme song" business as a joke. But then some oddball selected "Staying Alive" and did some disco moves as he walked up to the stage. Another person had some rap song. So I felt a little better as I get ready to go up, but then again I was a little drunk so I was more concerned with not tripping or falling down as I walk on stage.

The speaker began talking about all of my accomplishments and background info and then he said, "OK folks, put your hands together for Mr. Gadzooks" I slowly walked up to the stage as the crowd clapped (about 8 of my co-workers were in the front row along with my parents) And then the sound system belted out the beautiful voice of Mr. Lionel Brockman Richie: "Hello... Is it me you're looking for? I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your smile...." Most of the clapping stopped as most people had a confused look on their face as they were realizing what the song was and then most started laughing and clapping louder. As I approached the stage there was an elderly woman in a wheelchair that I didn't know, but I stopped looked at her, did a double fist-pat to my heart and pointed to her and winked. Got on stage and took the picture and then sat down while all of the other award winners were telling me how awesome my song was. The speaker then said how weird it was that they put on this big event and now the only thing people will remember about the night is that some weirdo picked a Lionel Richie song for his music. The rather heavy set woman sitting next me whispered to me: "haters gonna hate" I whispered back "lovers gonna love". It was pretty awkward for me and pudgy after that.

Thropas.

What level of texts would you like to receive from the group during this date:

A) Powder's "GET ME OFF THIS LIST" level silence.

B) Normal shenanigans: pics of people sitting on couches, Homer f-bombs, YSR acting like our mom, etc.

C) Full on text storm including shot videos that makes her wonder if you either run a porn site or deal ecstasy.

How do you clowns keep forking this up, BTW? Much prefer the one on one texts I exchange with YSR, STLB, Sister Havana and JoeB.
