Ok, DUAN. Heading down the street to see a band. I'm sure I'll be back with tales of hookers and drug deals and lots of "where the fuck is everyone". Hold down the fort till then.
Signing off. Night all, this was fun, and we should do it again soon. How about tomorrow? In case anyone's interested, I went through last night's DUAN and made a compilation of most of the jokes (except the dead babies and 4yr old ones).
Anyone interested, drop me a note, and I'll send it out.
The girlfriend just left and I just reached the end of a bottle of Chilean Cab.
I've been following along and just wanted to chime in the familiar smells part. I've had to make girlfriends stop using a particular makeup remover because it's the same one my Grandma uses and I just don't need that association while climbing into bed with a girl. On the other side of the coin, there are certain perfumes that bring back memories of certain nights containing activities illegal in 36 states. Those are the better kind of triggers.
@Katni: Yeah, it's not what you think. It's a joke site created to complement an episode of How I Met Your Mother. The most explicit things on there are pictures of a fully-clothed Alan Thicke with amusing captions.
@Fawn Liebowitz: Yes, in our tell all society it's only cheating if you hide it; so as long as twit, liveblog, or facebook update your status after every makeout session then it's a-okay!
@Hank Scorpio-Steinbrenner: No, not that we met thru Twitter--we used that as our communication so no one would know, since no one uses Twitter we thought it was "cutting edge"--til he got caught
Christ have I turned this into Oprah or what? Sorry all
Ooooh now they have a "Tom Brady" rule in the NFL. No defender, who is on the ground, can lunge at a QB. WTF?!?!?! Might as well give QBs tutus and ballet shoes!
@DM: I didn't see anyone complaining when Vince Wilfork did the same fucking thing to J.P. Losman a year earlier...you know what now that I think about it, I'm not complaining either...but still Fuck You Tom Brady...
@Kick His Ass Seabass: I agree. But then Robert Kraft goeson and says that the NFL would not want to see the same thing happen to PeyPey and have him lost for the season, just like Brady. Fuck you arrogant cocksucking whoremonger!
@DM: You know, I'm sure there'll be plenty of angry responses like yours but I like the rule. Didn't Carson Palmer go down with a very similar situation? I'm for protecting QB knees, and protecting receivers from helmet to helmet hits.
@DM: Knowing youre in the convoy, I am considering it. Usually go to the Cape that weekend but we all are financially insolvent at this point so I may be a second car--god help you all
@PQ Crash: I am in 4 Fantasy Leagues...I made sure I picked King Felix, Ichiro!, and Beltre in each one...oh and I took Griffey with the last pick on every team. I am going to get destroyed...
King Felix and Ichiro! are always solid picks, especially in standard 5x5 leagues. Depending on Beltre, if you drafted him in rounds 13 or later, then you got a steal.
Griffey might surprise you, since RF at Safeco Field was built specifically for his swing. Provided he stays healthy, of course. But with selecting him with the last pick, there's nothing but upside with him.
And if you'll allow me just a moment to shill (and I don't want to hear a peep about The Rookies for this...)
Please vote for me for Comment of the Week. If you like one of the others better, I totally understand, but I am desperate for (as Sex Fabregas put it) a Pete Wentz autographed hockey puck. Thank you very much.
Act like you're Irish - vote early and often. Goodnight
So I was supposed to work 9-5am tonight, which I really didn't want to do, but then they called me on the way to work and canceled, and now I'm kinda pissed that I'm not working.
@Sex Fabregas: I'm basically going to make it your typical Waxing Off piece. Say that I know nothing about the topic, throw in an anecdote about an ex boyfriend, and manage to be a complete and utter bitch in the process. Voila!
I kid, I kid....
Btw, is that your proper email on your Tumblr? Or your improper email? I have no idea what I'm saying....
@Sex Fabregas: That video WAS funny. Haha. Awesome.
@The Boy Wonder: I'll admit, aside from Sad Guys on Trading Floors, I'd have no other reason to check out tumblr, either. It's like a high school art digital art poetry project.
@Jehovahs Witness Protection Program: There was one tumblr that I found that was reasonably ok, but they stopped updating with any regularity.
I'm just starting to feel a lot of backlash to the whole "look at me" mentality that seems to be dominating the internet these days. It led to a pretty harsh argument today with a friend.
@The Boy Wonder: I think a bizarre counterculture that sends up the "look at me" mentality in a "look at me" manner will soon be upon us ... we're going to get so meta our heads explode.
I think it was just a way for the person in question to let go a lot of pent up frustration at me. It stemmed from me thinking something wasnt funny, then me explaining my reason as "my friends and I have tons of funny conversations. I dont feel the need to turn them into a podcast or post a transcript on the internet."
If the other side avoids twittering about the argument, I'll consider it a small victory.
@The Boy Wonder: As long as someone isn't live-blogging her twitter feed, I think we'll all be OK. And it's true, not everything that's funny in one-on-one is funny broadcasted. That's called an inside joke. No one gets those.
@The Boy Wonder: I'd like to say it was because no man uses "pent up frustration" to describe how another man feels about them. Also, you mentioned "my friends and I have tons of funny conversations,: implying that this was a romantic interest or random female with whom you'd feel strongly enough to start an argument (eliminating mere cowoworker or classmate from possibilities) rather than a friend.
However, it was neither of these things ... as I merely just took a 50/50 shot on the pronoun.
