GM's thread about nothing (54 Viewers)

[Limp Ditka]

I hope someone (not me) goes psycho this weekend.

If a tree falls Imp goes psycho in the woods a homeless shelter, does it make a noise the innerwebs hear about it?

 

[Mr.Pack]

Good luck, Fish.

Is this code for "eat a ####"?

 

[FDAS]

Where is the button to deactivate the babysnot chat?

I can include future videos if anyone's interested. Cold season is upon us.

As my daughter has a head cold and bronchitis, color me intrigued

 

[Frostillicus]

I'll have to come up with a code word in case Thorn wants me to get him out of there.

My kids will be there. I'm pretty sure a code word of "these kids suck, let's go somewhere else" will do.

Would it be bad if we just moved to another table?

They can help pull tabs, right?

hopefully this doesn't sound like I'm pulling a Homer, but that girl of yours is adorable.

Thanks. I like her too. She's the good one.

Email I received from my wife about her friend's sister's baby shower:

Did you know there is something called the Nose Frida and it's this tube that you put up your baby's nose and then you SUCK OUT THE SNOT. WITH YOUR MOUTH.

Courtney registered for it.

I think I'm going to throw up.

The Nose Frida is pretty amazing, actually. There's a sponge in there to ensure that no baby boogers end up in your mouf. Pretty good for congested babies, the trickiest part is just keeping them still. Tough to do without someone holding the baby's head in place.

Mind you, just seeing the snot itself can be pretty unsettling.

What's wrong with those little hand sucker things? Why do we need to get the mouth involved?

Are you my wife?

Asus is awful. There's a reason their computers only cost $5

Mine has been great. Solid and fast. the only thing is trying to get it hooked up to my TV,

Doesn't have Apple's build quality but it's a solid discount computer.

The similar brand whose quality flat out sucks is Acer. Those things just seem to fall apart.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Good luck, Fish.

Is this code for "eat a ####"?

No. Fish is going to hook me up with my future 2nd wife.

Stu made the joke first fwiw. Top of the page.

Sometimes it isn't about the joke, it's about the delivery.

Personally, I would have gone with..."Oh, hey honey. Can you pick up Darla from band practice, I've got to take Billy to karate. See you at home"

Not enough suction. Maybe you'll get a couple stalagmites that are loose and the cave entrance, but you're not going to do any serious work with that thing.I've never tasted teh boogers.

CAN WE PLEASE TALK ABOUT POWERPOINT SOME MORE?!?!?

We're probably well beyond the GMTAN tolerance for PowerPoint discussion...

Unpossible.What are your thoughts on transitions?

Unless it's a photo slideshow playing in the background at a family reunion, anyone that uses them should be set on fire.

Willing to make a slight exception for push transitions in the hands of someone that knows what they're doing. I've used one for project timelines.

My one and only cornhole was a ThornHole. It's hard for me to enjoy another one because I feel like it won't live up to the ThornHole. Kinda a like parents who's first child is perfect, they don't want to have another out of fear it won't be as perfect as the first one. However, did I imagine that COS mentioned he'd be in the Boston area around New Year's and wanted to try to gather some of our Northeastern troops together? I may look into having my shower pipes fixed by then.

[bentley]

Looks like my invite to whatever thing that's going down is over at Golfsino or something.

Coldhole weekend. Let me know your availability. There will be pull tabs, meat raffles, maybe das boot, drinking in 19 degree weather, linked meats, a football game and maybe even some greenies, who knows?

I'll be supplying the greenies. Oh and will Mrs Frosty be making an appearance on Friday night or Saturday??

Were there greenies in Austin? Why wasn't I offered any?

[Tecumseh]

Everybody who dies gets the, "he was such a great guy. Everybody loved him" treatment.

#### that. I'm gonna live forever

"That miserable ##### is never gonna die. "

The funerals I've been to all involve these people with deep connections to everyone there and people have these stories about how the deceased made the world a better place. I always imagine at my that someone will stand up and say "That bentley, he usually didn't stick his #### in the mashed potatoes." Then everyone will get drunk enough that they don't really remember what happened and go on with their life.

Preparing to give my magnum opus, the 95 slide presentation on presenting in the morning. Every time I do this, I have people in the class send me a recent slide presentation to use for examples of dos and don'ts throughout the class. I don't think anyone has ever sent me a good slide deck. This time I had someone send me a 15 slide show that was nothing other than a reprint of a section from the Texas Labor Code with no bullet points, images, animation or anything else.

Are you using prezi? It's what all the cool kids are using...

India is freaking me out and I haven't even left the airport

India is awesome. As was Dubai. A couple of the best meals I've had anywhere in the world were in those two spots.

 

[krista4]

I petted our six-month-old kitten and he was kind of wet. The following conversation then actually ensued:

Me (to kitten): Why are you all wet?

Mr. krista: Oh, I used him to dry off after I showered.

Me: Why the hell did you use the kitten to dry off?

Abuser of Kittens: When I was in the shower, he pulled my towel off the rack and it was on the floor, so I used him instead.

Me: Didn't you get fur stuck all over you?

AoK: Not that much. He's really soft and doesn't shed much.

Me: But he's tiny and you're big! You couldn't possibly have gotten dry.

AoK: Yeah, I could only get my arms and my chest dry. I didn't want to use him on my back, because...[makes shrieking kitten noise]

Me: Please tell me you didn't use him to dry your junk.

AoK: Of course not! That would be really ####ed up!

Were you ever in mumbai? I'm in Goia for 3 days and then back to Mumbai for 2-3

I was, but unfortunately the great meals I had were in Delhi. Those were the only spots I visited. Do you go through Dubai on your way back? If so, do you get to go out and do anything, or just a layover?
