Hans Lauring:

He’s not thread cop… he just feels this need to always defend ElG’s honour…

This needs to be set to a certain Peter Cetera song.

Angie Gallant:

That’s a mighty short statue of limitations on calling out stupidity, Thread Cop.

Short statues tend to be very limited. ;-)

Hans Lauring:

I don’t want his scraps, I want him.

That is what fat girls always say.

The more you guys complain about fat girls, that’s more cool and sexy girls for those of us who like them. ;-)

Thanks guys. It’s my present to myself so that I don’t have a mid-life crisis. Women and men of all sizes welcome to ride along in the passenger seat. Well, nearly all. My friend Ken just got lapband surgery, and I think I can safely offer him a ride when he drops 1/3rd of his weight to 300lbs. It really is a bit of a squeeze to get in.

Please don’t wear a skirt or kilt unless we are either really good friends or you are Lindsey Lohan.

Hans Lauring:

How much

35,000. It even has a rear-facing camera. It was quite the deal, and I consider myself very lucky to have stumbled upon it.

Omniscia · 2010-08-05T16:36:29.000Z

Wow, that’s well below MSRP. For a second I thought you must have meant miles.

Demon G Sides:

This literally happened a day ago but you couldn’t just let it go, could you?

Yeah, that’s like ancient history. Let it go! I wish people would stop dredging up stuff from the past.

You know, I knew I was going to make that mistake and then I went and did it anyway.

Editer · 2010-08-05T17:04:51.000Z

How fast were you traveling when the gentleman in the strange hat pulled you over to get a better look at your sweet new ride, Roger? :)

Haha, except that is hilarious :P

I hear ya. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve said to myself, “I can’t forget to do <whatever needs to be done>. I can’t forget to do <whatever needs to be done>.” Yet, 5 seconds later, I forget to do <whatever needs to be done>.

Omniscia · 2010-08-05T20:30:28.000Z

I find if I mark an X on my hand, I remember whatever it is I was supposed to remember much more easily.

Enidigm · 2010-08-05T21:51:44.000Z

From hero to zero to hero!

I order catering when my family member is paralyzed by indecision. Hero! I order catering from a site over the internet and it turns out to be a shake-n-bake cafeteria style steakhouse (my “meat and cheese” for 15 turns out to be lots of sliced sandwich meat with slices of yellow Kraft cheese, the “mixed” salad is like something made at Subway). Zero! It’s two hours before the party. I flip out and go to the grocery store and start dropping the C-bills, literally picking up anything that looks half decent with that debonair wth attitude and absolutely no concern for proportion. I manage to get enough stuff, including getting the deli to cube some of their cooked in the store specialty smoked meats, that everything turns out just fine aside, perhaps, from the one thing used from the Shake-n-bake, the chicken strips, which were pretty low rent, but screw it.

Of course i now possess literally pounds of spare, unwanted food. Zero.

You should so get an X tattooed on your hand. You’ll never forget anything again.

There and back again.

Hah.

And hah.

Downside: also will never be served alcohol again.

So my 45-year old, mother-of-three, recovering-Mormon, once-divorced older half-sister has gotten out of a relationship that turned kind of sour on her. And she has a girlfriend now.

Her mother: FREAKING THE HELL OUT.
My mother, who’s always kind of been a second mom to her: “Well, it’s not the lifestyle I’D choose but she’s like a daughter to me, so if she’s happy I’m happy”.
Our dad: Has NO clue yet. This should be AWESOME.

Me: “A, you’re my sister. B, you’re old. The thought of you dating anyone is enough to make me kind of snicker. At least one of us is getting some.”

Ah, family. The best reason to live half a country away.

kerzain · 2010-08-06T07:35:25.000Z

If she met her new girlfriend online you should get her to post in the dating thread.
