GM's thread about nothing (57 Viewers)

[Tiger Fan]

Saw this group last night. The lead singer had this really short plaid skirt on. I felt like I was back in HS again. So ####### hot. During a break, she came over to the table to talk. Actually true.

So you talked to a lead singer of cover band?

Damn, I wish I was Bob

 

[Tiger Fan]

Much anger. I have errands I put off because some guy wanted to come but the television I put on craigslist. Even set a time. Now he's a no show and of course not answering his phone.

Seems like the norm for CL transactions. Or they come to pick up after half dozen emails/texts and pull out 20% less cash than agreed upon. Thanks! Exactly what I hoped for when I took the ad down.

That's why those facebook groups I was talking about are

Not the point and you're ### ####ed right.

ETA

There was at least 100 people at the place and when they got done with the set, first thing she did was head to our table.

GB I played golf with Friday was in France last year and got mugged. Being a typical STL guy, he's no sucker and four guys isn't that many. Took two of them out and one of the other two sliced his from his elbow up to his shoulder. Lucky he's alive. Pretty cool scar though.

I would have been yelling "This is what I get for D-DAY!?!"

Did this happen in Marseille?

Jaws is a great movie. Id ask how its possible that people who like movies never saw it, but I just watched Psycho for the first time last night. So I'm a shameful person as well.

Really holds up well I must say.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

I didn't realize that Uni and Norm from Cheers was in Jaws.

Anyone have any tips for dealing with annoying neighbor kids who invite themselves over to play with your kids?

Don't feel bad for this one either.

Here's the Austin version of that band, right down to the blondo in the short skirt. Big fan. I think I've spoken with her but I was pretty hammered the last time we saw them so I may have been talking to one of the dudes.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

We need a better name than NewGirl.

Just put her picture into one of those fancy celebrity lookalike machines on the interwebs and they say her celebrity lookalike is Lisa Snowdon

She hasn't necessarily done anything to merit a specific nickname at this point

Wow - if she looks like that, well done, my friend. Though I don't know why I'd be surprised you'd be able to attract someone like her.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Don't feel bad for this one either.

If there was a Homer-Christo hybrid that would be his dream girl

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Oof....not cool, IMO

I was nowhere near Mt. Rainier.

[krista4]

We only hiked yesterday, which nearly killed us, and combined with the Aladdin Motor Inn and a dinner that upset my tummy, we decided to skip today's hike. :( But at least I'm home already and can see the Blackhawks game without DVR'ing, which never works for me because I can't help myself from checking the score.

I met BFF2 the first day of my sentence in Catholic school in the second grade. He was in the desk behind me drawing pictures of Jaws eating people. We've been friends ever since.

Here we are in the 8th grade after a good night fishing. I caught a snake on a hula popper. Could use more basketballs.

I drove by the Blues practice rink the other day and the sign out front reads "Somebody please beat the Blackhawks". lol

Besides cos, I reckon I'm the oldest person who semi-regularly posts here. I can recall my mom taking me to see 2001 when it came out. I'm sure she thought it would be like Star Trek - a space-action-adventure flick - and not the Kubrick cluster#### it was. I remember my mother yanking my hand and dragging me back to the car, while I was asking her questions about what we just saw.

Jaws was a great movie, though.

Maybe they'll invent that after they find a way to allow a diner to add salt after cooking.

That was right after I was in L.A.

When you go out to eat, do you bring something to cook the food with as well?

I think we're about the same age. For my 10 11th birthday my mom gave me Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions because I was into sports. That was an eye opener.

Drinking has commenced

Such drinking

Many liquors

Wow

much headache

You should get it for Cal next year. Perfect age.

In many places in the book, Vonnegut provides simplistic descriptions of troubling themes in U.S. history. The result is passages explaining what things like racism, oppression and general inequality are without the contextual explanations that are often used to excuse these trends.

His drawings, intending to illustrate various aspects of life on Earth, are sometimes pertinent to the story line and sometimes tangential. They include renderings of a butthole, flags, the date 1492, a beaver, a vulva, a flamingo, little girls' underpants, a torch, headstones, the yin-yang symbol, guns, trucks, cows and the hamburgers that are made from them, chickens and the Kentucky Fried Chicken that is made from them, an electric chair, the letters ETC, Christmas cards, a right hand that has a severed ring finger, the chemical structure of a plastic molecule, an apple, pi, zero, infinity, and the sunglasses the author himself wears as he enters the storyline.

Somehow, some way, the Aladdin Motor Inn has managed to be worse than I expected.

Is the window air conditioner working? No mold in the corners of the cement ceilings? No chips in the $1.98 a sheet "1968" wood paneling? F

Lets not get on our high horse princess.

There is no window air conditioner. To be fair, there is also no heat. You get the temp you get. When we walked into the room, Mr. krista opened the window due to the overpowering mildew smell. No screen on the window. It's open for now, but there are a LOT of birds around here.

I don't know if there is mold in the corners, but there sure are a lot of cobwebs. I prefer the cobwebs to the globs of unidentified substances found all over the walls and the long black hairs on the bed. The "accent" wall is orange, which is not a terribly soothing sleep color. At least it matches...wait, wait, it doesn't...the pink formica counters on the sink. Well, that's in the bathroom, right? No, the sink is not in the bathroom so much as nearer to the middle of the room itself. The bathroom has a toilet and a tub/shower and blue ink scratchings on the walls.

But those are just aesthetics. Whatever. I'll just settle in and get on the internet and try not to touch anything. Except the guy didn't tell us the internet password, and there are wireless networks called "Aladdin" and "Aladdin guest" both of which require passwords (turns out, of course, that the appropriate network is neither of these and is instead called "NetGear11"). No problem, I'll just call down. Oops, the room phone doesn't work. No problem, will use my cell. Oops, every time I call the number it says the call won't go through and to try again later. Fine, I'll watch a little TV and get the password on the way out to dinner. Where's the remote? Oh, there isn't one.

All right, I'll go down and ask for the password. Sore after our hike and the flights of stairs will suck, but at least we're on the top floor so it will be quiet here. Other than the people in the next room who slam their door going in and out, causing the whole room to shake. On the plus side, they only seem to go in or out of the room every two ####### minutes.

The beds have six inches of metal sticking out on either side, right in the middle. Mr. krista has somehow managed to hit his leg into that metal at least a dozen times already. At least I have that to keep me entertained.

OK, off to dinner!

So good.

So the old dudes who sit on benches at the mall...they're checking out the young girls right? I don't think they're all waiting for their wives.

 

[Frostillicus]

80 miles away at this moment and closing is a van containing my mother in law, father in law, sister in law, and her 4 kids between ages 1 and 8. They drove from Utah and are visiting for two weeks. Although my inlaws still own a house here so they all have a place to sleep, there is no TV or internet which means they'll basically be living here the next 2 weeks. I'm probably going to have to work late a lot.

 

[UniAlias]

Jaws. Pretty, pretty good. I think I had seen the ending before which is maybe why I thought it was a little cheesy, but other than those few parts it was really good.

Up next, this Godfather movie people talk about. Any good? About gangsters or something?
