GM's thread about nothing (67 Viewers)

I actually think Community is a quality show. Much better than most of the #### that passes as a sitcom on TV today.

It's just hard for me to watch. Every character has some sort of real obvious shtick that when blended with all the rest of the shticks on the show becomes grating.

 
By the way, for those who have not been tracking my every Seattle thought in Drifter's Seattle thread (and why not???), I want to point out that Drifter actually went to an open house for us last Sunday to check out a West Seattle house. How cool is this guy? Thanks again; we owe you many beers/pizzas/naan and/or boat rides.
BRONG did something similar for us when we were looking at rental locations for our trip to Kauai. As he was perusing the premises (a huge house split into three rental units), he inadvertently ran into a couple #######. :lmao:
brong is good peeps. He was in my home magic football league for 3-4 years. He was always known as my internet date by the rest of my friends.
 
Krista,

I'm late to the house discussion but I vote 1 as well. Did I read correctly that you would be sharing the garage in 2? Wtf?
It's a four-car garage for four units (these are townhomes); you get 300+ sq ft of garage for each unit. I didn't write that clearly.

We're making a bid on House 1 today whenever my realtor gets out of bed after having had a bad bout of food poisoning last night. They already had two offers as of yesterday and are going over all offers at 5 p.m. today.

are the decks shared as well?

no brainer to go with house 1. if you know any escrow peeps up there, a fast escrow might make your offer that much more attractive if there are multiple offers. and do you have proof of liquid funds in hand to go with the offer? good luck!

No, decks are all separate, and there's over 600 sq ft of deck per unit.

I think our offer will be good since it is all-cash (yes, I have the proof of funds), can involve a large amount of earnest money, will promise a quick inspection (they didn't allow pre-inspections which is good for us as we wouldn't have had time to do one), and is totally flexible as to close date. The people selling are making an offer on a house today so might need to rent back for a week or two after closing, which is fine with me too. Despite all that, with multiple offers there just might be someone who wants it more than I do. We have other options.

 
I just finished a 4 mile walk. It's 8 degrees out, -8 with the wind chill and there's a lot of wind. I've officially lost my mind.
Pfft.
Yes?

Also, putting your Christmas tree under your deck until the summer is beyond a bad idea. A small spark can ignite them a flame thrower. Trust me here.

I'm not going to make excuses or offer any explanation, but I am absolutely #### hammered right now.
Here I was just envious of the guy checking out an 18 pack of Miller Lite while I was checking out a salad. Was that you?

HOF episode of Community last week. More to the show than just an Asianed guy saying mean things.
The season opener was an atrocity worse than The Killing Fields. No clue what that was supposed to be about.

Report back when you have -35 to -50 windchills, Hasselhoff.

I'm aware on the tree...I've taken a few of them up north to start bonfires. Super fun. Edit: It would be a blessing if the current place went up. ;)

It was -25 a couple of weeks ago. The trick is being stupid enough to purposely hang out in said weather.

 
I kind of want to bet the "first team to have a player get a concussion" prop but it's pretty much betting on whether Harvin or Welker will get brain damage.

It's Harvin, right?

Just sayin, I'd suck ##### for 8.

 
So I watched the third episode of Twin Peaks this weekend. Probably the weirdest 40 minutes of network TV I have ever experienced. A creepy ### dream sequence that had a midget vibrating, then speaking in such a weird voice that they actually put subtitles on the screen, followed by him doing some goofy solo slow dance to some creepy music. And, of course, more uncontrollable shrieking by Laura's mom.

Is this what this show is? Does it just stay weird and nonsensical or is there actually some character development and a real story to tell? I've heard so many great things about it that I'm loathe to bail but wow this is some messed up stuff.

Also saw the first episode of Freaks and Geeks. Netflix rocks.

 
We(I) got rid of the tree in record time this year. It generally sits under our deck until the summer months because we miss the one chance for the garbage man to take it. Not so, this year.

However, we still have a gigantic wreath up on the wall. My wife orders it from some crazy lady at her work that insists on delivering it in person with her creepy kid. The thing is massive and somehow involves a metal skeleton and wiring to keep it all together. Last year it stayed up until summer and I finally got to take and disassemble it with a pliers. Each year my wife (hi honey) says she'll take care of it, so I'm waiting to see how that goes.
Yes, but I take care of it in March. I have plenty of time.

 
When you are drinking at a bar for 7 hours with your wife, a lot of things get brought up including the GMTAN. So Mrs. SLB asked me to say hello to the GMTANers. She said she is looking forward to Beerhole® particularly since Thorn is going to be there.

Highly considering calling it off now. :coffee:
What are her thoughts on diminutive tennis players?
Hmmmmmmmm.....might not want.
Yikes - is that life-sized?
