GM's thread about nothing (41 Viewers)

[Tiger Fan]

I mainly participate in 2 threads, this one and the wagering thread. I strolled into the Disney thread tonight because we're headed there in February. Man, there's a lot of crossover posters in there on the reg (hi pickles!)

 

[Mr. Pickles]

By "on the reg" you mean close to never, right?

 

[shuke]

B) I have a board meeting today at Paddy's Bar & Grill. Our female president emailed us all to say she was looking forward to a very refreshing "Rader" at the meeting on this incredibly hot day. A "Rader" is beer and lemonade mixed together. Never heard of that in my life. And though I'd rather drink from the toilet, I could see it being a treat for the womens and men who eat sweets for breakfast.

You don't know know people who drink Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy? I actually do drink my own piss when this is the only option.

Oh come on.

It's not that bad

Yes, it is.

4 day update?

glllll with that thread. I can't understand a ####ing thing in there.

Sacamano and Ferris were posting a lot in the Disney thread and I could barely understand anything that was going on.

I haven't been around to post in a while but have been following along. Have had some of my own crap to deal with lately.

It looks like in about a week i am going to be without a job. I spent 13 years with my previous company and knew the time was coming to an end so i had an exit plan. Landed on my feet right away. Did not full see this one coming. So, I have no exit plan and have not really begun looking. I have a prospect back home in North Carolina that i am flying back next week to do on site interviews at. Other than that i am looking at being without benefits at the end of next week. I have never had to look into any of this COBRA stuff. All i know is that it is expensive as balls. Not looking forward to that. I have kind of been feeling down on myself lately and need to get out of a funk to start looking hard for a new job. My wife works at a small non profit and they have no benefits through their organization. So, she is starting to look as well. Some fun times ahead for us.

Just needed to vent some. Thanks for listening.

Hang in there. I do know that Cobra is nothing to mess around with - there is a pretty tight timeline to accept it or you lose insurance. No matter how expensive you don't want insurance to lapse. Good luck, hopefully you will end up with something better immediately or with a better career future.

I don't think the lapse thing is an issue anymore, is it?

Very much so. He's got 60 days from the loss of coverage to get something via ACA exchange. He's also got 60 days from the COBRA offer to accept to reject it. If both of those 60 day windows expire, he'll have to go till the end of the year uninsured (unless another "qualifying event" occurs for him).

Always good when a fresh face jumps in here and sheds some expert knowledge. Stick around.

Does that require reading the thread from the start? Not sure I'm up for that.

This is serious business. You were blessed by our creator; make him proud.

I hate almost all of you.

I like it when women hate me. $1.50!

$1.51 and a raisin

 

[cosjobs]

One beer Thirsday, two glasses of wine and one beer last night.

You seem to be having a little trouble with the concept of sobriety

I drank a fair amount last jight

Check your trade offer in AOD league. It should assure we finish 1/2 or 2/1

 

[cosjobs]

Guess what I get to do in about an hour? Go watch my 6 year-old nephew perform in "Shrek: The Musical". It's being held at a HS auditorium so can't bring in a flask.

Why not? Also, they have those fake beer belly things you can wear that makes you look fat(ter) but you can fill with booze.

Ziploc baggie in your bra. Tape mini bottles to your thigh under your skirt. You're not thinking hard enough.

Where we at on the makeout thing?

When you don't hear the phone ringing, that's her

 

[cosjobs]

Also, do we want to try one more time to have a GMTAN Fantasy Football League? We can just have the draft in here. 14 teams, $25 entry, I'll clone it like another league I run, which is a bit more wide open and fun than your grandfather's fantasy football league. I should have some time this summer to organize/commish this.

Thoughts on doing just a draft and "best ball" and no transactions during the year? The draft sounds fun, but the thought of another league to manage doesn't.

Just my $.02

tap

in, but not hopeful.

this crowd loves tedium

We could even steal the contest format and values here

Let's go no stealing from the folks that provide our free message board for now

More of an homage than a theft

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

What is "weck"?

Wild wings and weck down?

Think he meant "on the rag"

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Went to one of those fancy grocery stores today with an olive bar. Went with kalamatas, cerignolas, and regular old manzanillas but in this super flavorful greek brine that is awesome. No stupid black ones.

That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Huh?

Olive bar? Come on.

Now imagine it's a garden.

Rizzo and Kipnis for my Altuve and Kershaw? I'm not that hammered right now.

-I've been watching MTV Jams a lot lately. I'm not ready to publish my full report, although I think it's undeniable that E-40 is a national treasure. And asses. So many asses.

-I have been in fancy supermarkets with olive bars, but have not partaken. Seems like a little much.

-Not to take it too political, but you even say some halfway #### about Israel, and they get in your ### quick.

Oy.

 

[Frostillicus]

I think olive bars are my new favorite thing ever.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I would kill for some olives

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Don't get me wrong, I'll eat the #### out of some olives, I just don't think they necessitate their own "bar."

 

[UniAlias]

Olives are gross.

OH DEAR GOD WHAT HELL HAVE YOU WROUGHT ON US?

Wait, there's actual #### in olvies? That explains the taste.

I had a dream last night in which I was going through my dad's papers and found a stack of letters and yearly Christmas cards from Bob Sacamano.

Somebody needs to tell these kids that the whole reason I have two of them is so they can entertain each other instead of me having to parent them the whole time.

this dream clearly indicates that you feel your social media and sacamano addictions are genetic.

There's a notification. Upper right of every page has your notification bar - there should be a red balloon with a number if you have new likes.

So, sorta like dogs?

Dogs don't really get it either.

Normal "Merry Xmas" type letters/cards, or "Hey, how is my secret second family doing over there? Please stop sending so many letters. It makes it hard to keep up the charade" kind of letters/cards?

This is important.

Have you just been somehow missing the bright red balloon?

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Hide your children, etc.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Bright red balloon is only thing that keeps me coming back, tbh.

 

[5-ish Finkle]

Have you just been somehow missing the bright red balloon?

Probably confused it for a Trulia/Zillow alert.

there's a board setting to determine what types of notifications you get. so, K4 and others might have had them turned off.

The only thing that could be better than going up a skirt is also finding booze there waiting for you. If we weren't friends I would totally make out with you.

Spent the morning kayaking again. It's the 6th time I have been out this season. My goal is at least 9 times. Just so relaxing, but not at all cheeky like SLB's pre-Beerhole adventures.
