GM's thread about nothing (39 Viewers)

Raiderette loves the train too.

Anyone ever go cross country or on a 48 hour plus train ride. Amtrack seems to have bedroom suites for the la-chi leg. 43 hours. :mellow: and then another 15-20 or so to get to NC where grandpa lives.

Seems like it might be fun. See the country all that.

Thoughts
Imagine if the US Post Office was given a train company to run. That's Amtrak.

 
The surfliner down here in SoCal runs great. SLB seemed to. Like his beer hole ride. What's your experience with them that draws post office comps?

 
I'm sure this is like Mark van Eeghen trying to tell Adrian Peterson how to play in today's NFL, but if you're going to stick with the crazy ones, wouldn't it make sense to consider one who would need to navigate the gun procurement process first?
I don't have a sophisticated screening process. With this one, it basically went: (1) met hot 24-year old; (2) somehow managed to get her to go out with me. I'm 46, out of shape, and have a kid. I'm in no position to turn this down.

But yeah, I should probably start running background checks.

Pretty cool but not something to do if you have ADHD.

What happened to the doctor?

She's still around. Our parenting schedules are opposite, so I really only have time to see her about once a week.

 
What is proper dump etiquette in the workplace? I went in the morning then again in the afternoon. Is this excessive? Usually I limit myself to once per day but I had Mexican last night.

Is this during designated poop breaks?

Go early, go often, is my motto.

I've easily secured the pre-lunch hat trick on many an occasion.

I try to limit my trips to the restroom to times when I need to use the restroom.

We took the Orient Express from Bangkok (heehee) to Singapore in 2008, a three-day and two-night trip. Complete luxury, with a personal butler who, among other things, left a bottle of champagne in our refrigerator every time we left the cabin.

####### hated it. Do not do this.

Oh it's fine but it is a government run company and the only option we have now for train travel. It ain't Silver Streak.
I think the Northeast corridor might be run marginally better. Acela is great option Boston - NYC - DC. I've taken the Philly train dozens of times. Both are best the alternatives of driving or flying.

 
Proper work dump etiquette

1. Mercy flush.

2. If you crap for more than five minutes more than once a day, crap in different bathrooms.

3. Once in a while, bring a newspaper to work. When you get to the office, slide the sports page under one stall and the rest under the other. If there are three stalls, put the funny pages under the third stall door.

4. Don't make a tp nest. Use the MDJ or make a small dong protector.

5. No cell phone use except for Internet. If you make a phone call from the John it had better be an empty bathroom and a friend who would understand hearing a flush in the background because I will flush repeatedly until you hang up or leave.

6.if the stalls are full, leave. Don't wait. This isn't a ####### mall parking lot at Christmas. If you have to ####, #### elsewhere.

7. If someone else starts wiping just as you are ready to start wiping, wait and let them finish. Wipe while they wash.

8. This is because you never make eye contact with a fellow ####ter. Ever.

9. And don't go peeking through that crack in the door either. They can see you and it's weird.

10. And please, if it's a serious ####, mercy flush.

So would you say that you, too, love a good train ride?

No, I would say the opposite of that.

Team name idea...

Considering our profession, the propensity of my posts getting overlooked and your predilection for Indian breads, I thought we might go with:

Persona Naan Grata
This, my friends, is why I undoubtedly have the best partner in the league. Team name accepted.

 
I'm trying really hard to stay out of that sprint car thread but it's tough not to mercilessly mock the speculation, ad hoc reasoning and armchair psychoanalysis. Fortunately HF is performing beautifully.

One of the biggest offenders early on is a guy I don't think I can mock.

I just go if I have to. I didn't realize there was etiquette involved.

There is a funny story that Ken Stabler tells in his book "Snake" about Mark van Eeghen. There was an O-lineman on the Raiders at the same time named Charles Philyaw. According to Stabler, Philyaw was as dumb as a stump.

One day Philyaw asks Stabler "Hey, why do you keep calling van Eeghen 'Mark'?" Stabler answered "Because that's his name."

Philyaw had been on the same team with Van Eeghen for like two or three seasons and thought his first name was "Van".

Sounds like a misunderstood genius to me. Speaking of misunderstood genius, can you give me a link to this draft thread?
