[Limp Ditka]

going off the grid for a while.

try to be more interesting when I get back.

You can't do this now!?!?!?I'm married and sober

Who will I live vicariously through?

sorry, man. off to mexico with notcrazychick.

when I return I'll tell you the story about the one I met three weeks ago that asked if she could pee on me.

for you office drones: is there any better feeling at work than setting your out of office reply?

ITS NOT PEE, DAMMIT!

 

[Mr. Pickles]

I hate that moment when I'm about to like something and worried about whether I'll get the error message. :(

T&P

Wouldn't know. Never liked anything. I encourage you all do the same.

Never in a million years would I have believed Mr. Pickles was a Tanner alias. Well done.

There are people living and breathing in this great country of ours who haven't had falafel.

I don't eat terrorist food

 

[ScottNorwood]

I'd like pickles to unpack the reasoning behind not liking

 

[Homer J Simpson]

I love Katie.

Isn't she too old?

It's not like she's 25 or anything.

28. Sorry GB. :(

I'll try to befriend some younger barkeeps elsewhere and then casually mention your name.

See? How could anyone not love you?

 

[kevzilla]

I'll take those 28-year-old cougars off your hands, GB.

 

[cosjobs]

any thoughts on life insurance? my 10 year policy is expiring. should i re-up for 10, 15, 20, more? i'm 46

How old are your kids? I'm assuming you're using if for a safety net, not an investment vehicle.

correct. she's 8

wait- are you asking whether you should re-up for life insurance in general, or just for how long?

re-up for as long as you can afford- the rates will only be worse and harder to come by as your age increases and health decreases.

re uping. my dad died out of the blue at 51 leaving his wife and 3 month old baby up #### creek. not pleasant to watch her deal with all of it.

I've got two 20-year terms, but they ain't going to last into the teenage years of the little kids, so I need more. My existing rates are de minimis, but the years haven't been too kind to me so I'm going to have to employ SLB's sober spring and summer, Bentley's running program, one of Cos' crazy caveman diets and perhaps a borrowed prostate to get reasonable term rates at this point in life.

Also, once I get set up with moar, I'm going to start storm chasing, swimming next to oil tankers and lipping off to people who don't take kindly to albino wise acres.

My sales bat-signal sounded. I can help if either of you are interested. ------> https://robliano.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/top20jerks-nedryerson-590x350.jpg

Send me a PM if you're serious. I have not aged well and will probably lie on your little test you make me take. I'm for sure going to take Golden Seal for the pee test even though pot is legal now. If still interested, I'll go through you. Wife too. Looking for maybe $500K each? She's young and healthy so maybe she'll help offset my advanced age and bad habits.

Great idea publicly conspiring insurance fraud.

When is the "Hate This" button coming?

It's more a link than a button, but Done

 

[St. Louis Bob]

Me: What is Bob Marley giving a hand-job?

Alex: Correct.

There are people living and breathing in this great country of ours who haven't had falafel.

I prefer Fleet-A-Pita or if I'm in Saudi, Shwarma King.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

I got half a dozen donuts from the clearance aisle for $2.49 tonight.

 

[belljr]

SPONGEBOB 7pm TONIGHT!!!

 

[bostonfred]

I got half a dozen donuts from the clearance aisle for $2.49 tonight.

42 cents for a clearance donut sounds like a pretty sweet deal

Six Longjohns #####es, I just ate one two, still fresh. booze! donuts!

 

[BobbyLayne]

We're in the 95th minute of the school wide talent show. A kid with stage fright just bolted off stage halfway through his doe-ri-me piano recital. We've heard three solo or duet versions of Let It Go. The dad in front of me has been cheerfully pouring me glasses of merlot from a flask. Make that flasks...he just opened number three from his apparently bottomless backpack. Two Irish moms behind me are doing shots of Jaegar.

Performance 26 (of 42) was a ninja demonstration. #27 is two girls now dancing to Katie Perry. Pretty sure we've covered the entire Perry/Swift hit collection.

All of this is (sadly) true.

Holy ####. Some 8 year old just sang a song in Farsi. Was actually on key. This mght get better.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Balloon tying demonstration. Other parents are mocking me because I'm a virgin, some of them have been to 4 or 5 of these.

4th grader of ambiguous gender now singing Jealous. I've just been informed this is a Jonas Brothers song. I'd describe it but that would be mean. Someone just offered me a pair those spongy swimming ear is plugs.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Sonny on drums is pretty good. But he keeps having to restart (3 times...no 4) because his five backup dancers keep missing their entrance cue.

 

[El Floppo]

lol at BL.

I'll be seeing Floppinho's after school "rock star" performance Thursday (one of god knows how many other "bands"... he's the drummer and lead singer- hello, Romantics- of what i'm sure will be a stirring rendition of "Radioactive". one of many, I'm sure.

My prediction: pain.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Tap dancing! To Iingrid Michaelson I Just Wanna be OK.

Definitely a highlight.

 

[Drifter]

Who's in Boston and wants to go out?

(Killed it today)

 

[BobbyLayne]

The next two are singing a show tune. Almost certainly. I asked Siri but she said "I have no ####### idea what song that is."

Now Liza on violin. OK, all you other twerps, this is talent. Truly.

 

[krista4]

NICE.

And at BL's updates.

Kailio (boy name) just ripped through Vivaldi on violin (b2b).

Now we have Izzy (girl name) doing Ring of Fire; singing / playing lap steel. These last three have been fabulous.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Luka (both boy and girl name) is dancing. We're drinking again.

 

[Drifter]

I will likely be paying some lap steel in my hotel later

 

[BobbyLayne]

They're now fading the music after 30 seconds. Big round of applause for Woo Ju and now it's time for Ava and Shepherd!! Even the volunteer sound board guy knows two plus hours is too ####### much.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

The good news in no particular order:

The CFO smokes cigs

Everybody is a drunk including head of HR (this is pretty common in this industry)

The CEO told me personally that they were going to go out of their way to make me happy

I got a couple of free sandwiches

They "buddied" everybody up with somebody, they put me with the #1 producer there

Some of the other sales reps confirmed you NEVER have to go to the office if you don't want to

They are giving me an office instead of a cube

Thanks GB. It's so unusual to have somebody that wants to go out of their way to make me happy.

Let's get bombed!

That sounds almost as bad as pine wood derby. At least you have variety and booze.

Saw the news on FB Bob, glad it's off to a good start.We're trying to flip our company, and I'm designated as a cost savings to the buyer (along with a couple VPs & the CEO). But there's good news mixed in there, should be a soft landing.

ETA: now drunk

 

[Osaurus]

Love falafel (aka crunch patties)

It's so nice to see you and BL have to suffer through this kind of stuff. I don't feel so alone in this universe all of a sudden.

I think they prefer to be called "ladies of the night"....but whatever

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Cos...PM me an email addy for the fantasy baseball

 

[Drifter]

My penis prefers to not be called a lady.

I also think I overextended in trying to relate to a black guy just now

 

[BobbyLayne]

Three black kids rapping. Pretty sure we have about 28 AA kids out of 750.

MC: "Alright give it up for some sista love there!"



Please tell me they're related.

 

[Drifter]

I think I just clawed it back with some deep reggae knowledge

I'm bored and going through threads that have a white star, but for which I have no memory of ever posting and don't want that star showing up, and deleting whatever post(s) I had in there. For example, apparently I posted once in November 2012 in the NBA thread.

Is this what people do who don't drink? I gotta tell you, not drinking is way overrated.

 

[BobbyLayne]

We've had two Greyson/Grayson singers. Another gender neutral name, 1 of each.

We must be getting close to #42.

The drunk Irish moms behind me just informed the wine pourer in front of me was President of the School Board for 3 years. I can't stop giggling.
