GM's thread about nothing (30 Viewers)

I named my last kid. Not sure if this is a boy or girl but will take input/ridicule on my current list:

Boy. First name will be John. Will he called middle name or a John abbreviation (jack). Current listings: Cash, Hendrix, Holden, charles, Knox. (I hate the last one)

Girl: lyla, Layla, Charlie, hazel, Hendrix, Ridley.

Will keep you posted.
More seriously, John is a great solid name, and Jack is a great nickname. "Cash" seems OK if he goes by Jack. Charles is nice and solid, too (but "Chuck" is not).

I hate all the girls' names except Hazel and Ridley. Had a good friend recently name her daughter Riley, which I think is better than Ridley.
FYI - I am a John that has never been called anything but Jack. Do him a favor and just name him Jack. It's a huge PITA through your entire life to ( teachers, etc)explaining that your name is really Jack.
Non-starter. I'm John as is my uncle, and his Dad, and his Dad, and his Dad. ANd besides, I've spent my whole life explaining why I go by my middle name instead of John.

And so, as you can see, the cycle of abuse and neglect continues down through the generations...

John here. Never been called Jack once. My brothers name is Charles and he's been called Chuck his whole life.

Abe>I vote for John Charles :thumbup:

 
Catching up on 15 pages.

TRE, Abe - Congrats on letting the mailman have fun with your wives. Whatever you do, don't get drunk and breastfeed them.

Garage sales - we drop all our crap off at my moms and she has one, we get back an envelope full of money. This year my sister kicked some lady out who was trying to steal stuff. She put a .25 sticker on a $3 purse and then tried to haggle.

Ice - Have several milk jugs full of ice in the freezer, but will also prebag before parties. But why the hell do you need to buy an actual ice bag for this, can't you just use plastic grocery bags??

Family drama - We had the baptism for our daughter yesterday. My wife is one of 4 girls, and I have 2 siblings plus a cousin who lived with us for 6 years (so 6 obvious choices for godparents). We have 3 kids, 3 does not equal 6. My wife picked one of her sisters (only 1 year seperate them, she was her maid of honor) for our first, and my sister/BIL were godparents for our second. Wife chose sister #2 for this one. Sister #1 shows up to the service after they had already done the actual baptism (not unusual for her to be waaaay late). Then afterwards when we are taking pictures she is sitting by herself crying, saying she doesn't need to be in the pictures, isn't part of the family..... She was all upset that she wasn't picked to be the godparents, even though she is divorced (who would be the godfather then?) isn't that into the lives of our kids other than to drop off crap she doesn't want, never called to see how my wife was doing when she was in the hospital, and when she did want to come visit her she made a big deal that they weren't allowing kids into the hospital (was at the height of the flu outbreak). My wife had to lie and tell her it was a hard choice to make, she didn't know how to pick one without hurting the other ones feelings..... This is also the sister whose son was the pinata smasher, yesterday he ran around playing with toys made for 1-2 year olds.

 
You aren't getting your hands back to square at impact for some reason. If it starts straight, the path is straight.

Where the ball starts = path. How it moves in the air = club face. So if it starts straight then moves right, your path is pretty good but the face is open, imparting left-to-right spin on the ball.
I actually think both maladies might be same cause - his grip is too open. Turn your hands more counter clockwise on the safet.

 
l. o. d. i. d. Loaded.

Grabbing a cab to this chix place in 6 hours to have "brunch" and then limos to a fine drinking establishment full of wanna be cowboys and terrible country muzak. Good thing she has an awesome fake rack.

I will tell her that my innernet friends require a picture of her chest.

whatever happened to this guy?
RWS is in Thailand. Or maybe he's done in Thailand and is now in Australia. One of the two. Can't recall the timeline. Pretty sure Foos knows.

 
Lay off TF, folks. He's got a stash of bags ready for the impending Icemageddon and all it took him to save the $1.08 for a pre-filled bag was ordering a pallet of empties, buying a stand-alone freezer and running his ice maker into the ground filling up those 12" X 20" 1.8mil beauties. You may scoff, but no matter what happens he's got that covered... unless the power goes out. But who needs ice then, anyway?
Starting to understand how fantasy football can be tedious to a man who bargain shops bags for ice storage.

Abe naming a child Cash is like me naming a child Pigment.

Tre, wife will be in your neck of the woods July 15 through July 22. A full week. She's pretty depressed about being apart from Hazel for that long, though I think most of that is worry that Hazel will be in my care for that long. She said most of the people on her 'team' are stuffy non drinkers so she's looking forward to this about as much as I would a week long trip to a tanning bed.

Hey, two pale skin jokes in one post!

My Mom just told me that one time in elementary school, the school called her and asked if she was John's mom. She responded no and then realized that they were talking about me.

currently living somewhere in the pacific rim.Be glad he didn't lick the top of your head
It wasn't so bad. I mean, if I weren't so accustomed to shaking hands as a greeting, it might have been less alarming.

 
Missed the last 3-4 days, been deep in depression.

Recap?
:( So sorry.

Hoping Bob Sacamano will be by to provide the recap.
tdoss notes for the Independence Weekend Challenged

-There seems to be a shortage of ice in the US. Which is weird, because I live in a ####ing desert, and ice seems to be in every Target, Rite Aid, and freezer door I encounter

-GM's mom disowned him because he's the child who doesn't date drug dealers and she apparently needs a fix to handle her grandchildren

-Abe either has proof that his wife is still willing to have sex with him or he's too dumb to understand where babies come from

-Tre also excels at unprotected sex with the wimmens

-Guster dumped a professional figure skater because she didn't know how to play keno, and he called her a sow cow on the way out the door.

-krista's retirement is apparently going to be funded by selling mr. krista to a brazilian kitchen. (Do they wax all their meat before they present it for your consumption?)

-Keystone is the Aaron Hernandez of beers

-Some people are opting to donate #### instead of yard saling it because they've apparently never thought to write the things they sell at yard sales into the lines of the blank receipts they get from Goodwill. Not that I'd do that. I'm just saying some people could. Goodwill is the devil.

-I quit knowing who Bad News Bears aliai belonged to after that racist kid got banned a bunch of times, but somebody who uses one of them is no longer being foreclosed upon

-Someone cowardly broke SLB's car window and used the proceeds to go to the Gold Club in Kansas City with Patrick Ewing. The lead suspect is the father of the girl Dylan is probably porking

-FDAS and Frosti's daughter are both too dumb to keep from touching metal that's actively emitting sparks

-Tiger Fan bought 100 bags of ice from a Nigerian prince. 'Cause who knows more about producing quality ice than Nigeria?

-Guster has (Greek?) friends who pray to the god of car racing

-I saw Despicable Me 2 this weekend, and little yellow guys who say, "bottom" and "poop" in funny voices still make me laugh. So dumb, but I can't help it.

-Apparently people are willing to pay good money for pre-worn coats and hats. The head warmth will cost you, but the lice are free.

-Thoprawishes to Tecumseh for losing his dog.

-Ignoramus went to fart and #### in his pants

-Colin is managing his baby name list worse than he managed his finances

-SLB lost his wedding ring

-Zooks got a visit from Aunt Flo while he was in the middle of pleasuring himself to the memory of molesting a bear

-IB went to Notre Dame, yet he is not a practicing Catholic. UOFI_316 went to some school in Illinois and apparently is.

Seems like a good opportunity for troof - "If you want to be considered for family things, you have to be more involved." :shrug:

The sister is all talk, but doesn't back it up. All 4 sisters have issues with there mom (there was some abuse growing up, mom blames it all on dad, mom is probably bi-polar but won't go to doctor...) My wife and the "good" sisters have all severely reduced the contact with mom, my wife sent her a letter telling her she can't just show up unannounced. Sister #1 will agree with all these things, and then she goes out of town and has mom watch her kids for her.

-IB went to Notre Dame, yet he is not a practicing Catholic. UOFI_316 went to some school in Illinois and apparently is.
Almost, grew up catholic because that is what my mom was. Stopped going when it was my choice. Wife is Lutheran, I think I have gone to 5 services that weren't Christmas/Easter or someones baptism. For the last 5 years at least one of our girls had nap times during church. I think I am going to have to start going again at some point when the girls are older.

 
i gotta get my boys baptized. basically to appease the old ladies grandparents and basically everyone else in my family does. am i going to have to go to some stupid counseling thing with the priest or can i pay him off?

Don't give in. We haven't baptized my kids despite some familial pressure and at this point everybody is ok with it.

Or they just don't bring it up and then talk about us when we're not around.

My family uses these things as an excuse to have a party and drink beer though. I'm so conflicted, but leaning towards getting them baptized.

Do you read some bible verse and then give the kid a swirly??

 
My favorite girls name is Sarah. But my wife has a wench cousin with that name so it's out.
Cara is good. Solid and not flashy, but a bit unique. I like Cara Maria, too.
She's a terrible competitor on the Road Rules/Real World Challenges though, and crazy too.
is she the super hot one?
Not in my opinion.
This is the correct answer

Cara Maria

You guys can bring Frosty too, assuming he's not tied up with softball, meat raffles and bad movies. Also, bring wives. Or girlfriends. Or both if you're feeling saucy.

Not really. Baptism involves immersion in liquid. Think of it as a form of spiritual pickling.

 
Congrats Colin and Tre!

GBCD, seriously impressed you sexed your hot wife with all you were going through. Well done. :thumbup:
It was really more of a "I am getting older and want another kid and you have been mostly worthless for a while so maybe you can help me with this ONE thing. Now, take off your clothes and get to work..."
No offense, but I'm surprised you had the nerve to talk to your wife like that. :thumbup:
