[Frostillicus]

How have I already reached my quote of positive votes for today?

My last two posts are not related.

had me worried there for a moment

 

[General Malaise]

I rather enjoy sleeping on the couch. It's a little treat for me. Like having a sleepover in my own house.

 

[General Malaise]

Curling not on. Did Swiss win?

 

[kevzilla]

You know, I've never been to the Derby and I could use an event like that on my calendar. Can we get tickets and hotel rooms and stuff?

My buddy banged a fairly hot chick in a port-a-potty at the Preakness... ####### gross, but a good story to tell.

Was worried for a sec but realized my ex wife has never been to kentucky

Dude, I'm pulling for you. But you need to work on your quality control. Just get in once or twice a day, say something funny, then get out. Sixty posts a day that indicate you don't know in which state the Preakness is located won't endear you to anyone.

I dont find horses running in circles particularly interesting.

Let the record show I tried.

 

[Binky The Doormat]

My wife has to have complete darkness and the bathroom fan on. I have such bad tinnitus I got to have something more going on. I fall asleep on the couch to the military channel or the cold case files channel, the one where Bill Kurtis narrates. Stuff that you can follow without watching and a smooth narrative voice.

I usually wake up sometime during the evening and then I can crawl into bed if I know I am going right back to sleep.

Get a life kev. Its all words on a screen. The only power they have is the power you give them.

Look out a window, not a screen. That is the real world.

I have a Rain app on my phone. Love it. Rain on a greenhouse is my favorite.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

DSP, you're ruining this thread even for those of us who wanted it to take a swift kick in the nuts for a couple days, enough already.

Get a DSP thread going, I'm sure the hilarity will ensue and you'll have the FFA on its ear in no time. No schtick, stop for a while. A couple of quick jokes. 2,000 posts in 3 weeks is like(pizza math)…well it's a lot and you should get some fresh air and let the smoke die. You carpet bombed the place, you won, just let the dust settle for a day or two. Some actual nice folks in here.

Ill do whatever I damn well please.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

I just spent an hour fixing my dishwasher. My wife now thinks I "still have it." I guess "it" is a set of star screwdrivers and a basic understanding of applied physics at the same level as a high school dropout who works in a dishwasher assembly factory.

Sometime this week I have to fix the a/c actuator or some such thing on my car. My wife, as usual, will not appreciate my skills.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Just noticed my first grey hair.

That's cute.

Maybe if you owned this place but actually from the rules thread which you might want to peruse between key poundings...

"We've had a few people who post on the board with the primary reason to just incite people and then go back to their home board and brag about how many "fish" they "caught" or what they could stir up. Posters who do that and don't have anything positive to bring to the board will have their ability to post removed.

In a similar light, hijacking threads for the sole purpose of killing them is looked at the same way."

 

[DSP]

MOP I do none of that. People attack me. Making bad jokes is not an intent to incite people.

Please tell me how someone hijacks a thread about nothing?

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Everybody take a deep breath and think before you continue this nonsense in here.

 

[Binky The Doormat]

I finally had a enough and went to put DSP on my ignore list. I never do that. To my suprise - there is only one other on that list ...bluemagic, from back in '09. Sick #### er.

 

[DSP]

Everybody take a deep breath and think before you continue this nonsense in here.

You know I never insult anyone. I have a right to defend myself and ive grown tired of having crap flung at me every day

 

[DSP]

Now that binky is ignoring me im going to miss out on tons of useful feedback

The FFA is useless to me now

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I have a right to defend myself

Nobody attacked you. Kev told you to post less and you took it personally and attacked him. This is getting old. If you can't relax, this isn't going to work out.

No need to respond.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Kev's advice is sound, irregardless of who it's directed to. Brevity is the sole of wit.

Kev insulted me several times in the past. I get insulted a hundred times a day. I never start trouble. If anyone is inciting anyone its my attackers.

Ive been calm for a month and this keeps going on. Do you really think this is fair?

Somehow im out of line but the hate brigade isnt

 

[Eephus]

irregardless ain't no word

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Saw a guy at the airport with his luggage festooned in the "Keep Calm and Chive On" crap. Considered murder.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

This may not be the board for you. It's a big internet out there.

I'm done talking about it. Tanner wanted to punch me in the face and I laughed. Get some thicker skin.

 

[DSP]

This may not be the board for you. It's a big internet out there.

Why? Because not everyone likes me?

You arent moderating right now. You are taking sides.

Im not sensitive. What people say to me means nothing. Its how often they repeat themselves that is tiresome

 

[T Bell]

so anyone else eleep in separate beds or rooms?

my wife and i have a great relationship but we have to most complete opposite sleeping habits. i need it cool, her warm. she needs light with some noise i need dark quiet. i have ear plugs and mask. we both toss and turn. we dont do it every night but i would say a couple times a week obe of us sleep in the spare room

There's been threads in here before on this. The answer is "no, I don't", but it's more common than people think and is perfectly fine if it's due to sleeping habits rather than reflective on your relationship in some other way.

DSP, last time I am going to reach out and honestly I would have given you a 1 day timeout already. You cannot go into a thread with the purpose of derailing them. This thread is 3,600 pages and spans years. You are posting at such a fast rate and when everyone is asking you to please stop for a minute and you just tell us that you are going to do whatever you want…you are breaking the house rules and Aaron as the appointed Sheriff around here has an obligation to EVERYONE not just you.

-The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one.

 

[T Bell]

If you guys stop talking to it, it will get bored and go away.

That hasn't worked for 3 weeks

Who has asked nicely besides you doing so now? NobodyI havent derailed a single thread. I post something on par with the subject and everyone else turns it towards me. That isnt my fault

Look, the 2nd person on their list of not welcome in here is me. In fact you bumped me off. Even if it is just me that asked nicely, why don't you let me get your coat n hat, let's share a cab on the way back to my place? They don't want me here either. Don't get yourself the public embarrassment of a timeout, it's not worth it.

I hate the Swiss.

Michael Sam, more like Michael Look At Me, I Have Two First Names.

I have a Rain app on my phone. Love it. Rain on a greenhouse is my favorite.

the wife and I use a white noise app which has rain but it also has other sounds like a Fan, dishwasher,a fire, dryer, city street,etc. pretty cool to switch it up and experiment with various sounds. we have been currently enjoying the fire and helps us to doze off.

 

[BigJohn]

Saw a guy at the airport with his luggage festooned in the "Keep Calm and Chive On" crap. Considered murder.

Always makes me want some chips and dip.

 

[flysack]

There's something kinda gay about the way jon_mx and peens are all over the Michael Sam thread.

 

[Ignoramus]

Henry, if I may call you Henry, a little primer that others can add to (shot videos and Thorning have already been explained). I have left out many of our most illustrious posters so that someone else can do some of the work, too, ya lazy bastards:

Making crock pot chicken means masturbation.

Something being on your bingo card means you really hate it. Masturbation is not on anyone's bingo card.

Old jokes should be directed to Tanner even though there are several here older.

Netflix and spelling questions should be directed to GM.

If you attend the Second Annual Fixie Bike and Knitting Benefit for the Chronically Warty, you are probably Disco Stu.

If you watch TV shows years after their runs ended and move every three weeks, you are probably me.

If you have magic space hair, you are probably kevzilla.

If you are pregnant through two or more presidential administrations, you are probably YSR.

If you have genital warts, you are just like 85% of other sexually active adult males.

If you buy gas one gallon at a time, you are probably Abraham. (This is actually actually true.)

Something that is "actually true" is not actually true, except when it is.

Gadzooks, Thorn and Guster are often confused for one another. I keep them straight because I only like two of them. (actually true)

Paws off bentley; he's mine. YSR gets sloppy seconds.

This really should be added to the thread index.

 

[Guster]

This last week can go suck it. My MIL went into the hospital on Thursday due to extreme dehydration caused by what turned out to be a bacterial infection in her intestines. Got discharged yesterday, had vision problems today and is back in because she had a mini-stroke and bleeding on the brain possibly caused by one of the medications they gave her. No idea yet what they're trying to do to help her at this moment.

I also had to take her dog and have him put to sleep on Thursday while she was in the hospital because he had kidney failure, was in pain and peeing all over the place.

On top of all of that, I feel like crap today and have a brown river running out of me which means I may have picked up the same fun bacteria my MIL has. 4 year old daughter also had a messy accident last night which is extra terrifying thanks to the jacked up autoimmune/hematology disorder she has where her body will sometimes start destroying her own blood cells when she gets sick.

Good times.

And noe I get to drive my wife up through the snow and dark into the paradise of Camden, NJ to drop her off at the hospital to be with her mom.

I know we don't see eye to eye much but that ####### sucks, sorry NJ sucks too. Get well and book a mini trip down to Florida and enjoy some sunshine while your buddies freeze their nuts off another 6-8 weeks up there.

Let me see if I've got this right... Your advice to him is to abandon his family during their time of need?? That's seriously messed up.

 

[Guster]

For Tre

The 2014 Kentucky Derby infield race is going to be more awesomer than ever.

I might actually come out of cornhole retirement for a Kentucky Derby hole.

Debry is an epic event. Great, great weekend.

Yeah, it's a definite (I refuse the use the term 'bucket list' here) event I'd hate to miss before I expire.

Thorn and I were just talking this weekend about DerbyHole '14. Let's make this happen... open invite to crash at my place

Yep, but last year we stayed at my place in Cincy and took a party bus down and back
