LongLiveYorke 38 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 What's a proper reward for going above-and-beyond like that? Not just doing your boss's job, but saving him from utter embarrassment by leading him into the breakroom and telling convincing everyone he has food poisoning? I'm taking suggestions.Buy him a hooker? Link to post Share on other sites
lvpro 0 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I've had "Optimistic" stuck in my head all day. I've been walking around my house singing "big fish eat the little ones... big fish eat the little ones" for the last 12 hours, and I think my roommates think I've finally snapped.

DinkDonk 1 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 So I've been drinking tonight and now I'm listening to Tilly and the Wall. This shit has me like giddy. I haven't had more than 2 beers in like 6 weeks and my tolerance is shot, so after 7 beers I'm smiling like a god damn idiot, listening to it. Does that make me a faggot? I know this thread will attract Wang, Dutch, and Sal who I surmise to be experts on faggotry. Link to post Share on other sites

I know this thread will attract Wang, Dutch, and Sal who I surmise to be experts on faggotry.The nature of your drinking habits, I would argue, makes you a faggot (respectfully). Based on your statement, I can reasonably conclude that you've had one or two beers a few times in the last six weeks, but cut yourself off at that point, which is pure faggotry. The fact that seven beers has you bombed isn't and indicator sexual orientation, but rather another symptom of some greater, homosexual ill.Except for an accidental slip up at a wedding -- seriously accidental, as in I told her to bring me non-alcoholic and she got me a pint of Miller Lite -- I haven't had anything to drink in coming up on 2 years. Now, one might think that makes me a homo, but unfortunately it does not. Before I stopped drinking entirely, I drank more than anyone. When I stopped drinking, I didn't fuck around. I took a hard line. Your "one beer yum, two beer yum, three beer ICK" attitude is the problem.Faggot.Wang Link to post Share on other sites

I took a hard line. Your "one beer yum, two beer yum, three beer ICK" attitude is the problem.Faggot.WangHaha. First of all- thanks for the prompt and thorough response Mr. Wang. Now, a quick sober defense of myself. Ahem.The reason I haven't gotten drunk in that time period is that I moved in with my dad in order to help him out with some stuff (not because I'm a loser, though it certainly feels that way sitting in a basement bedroom, eating wheat thins and playing $50/100 LHE where the average pot is the size of the monthly mortgage payment), so I am stuck in a house with a 46 year old, a 14 year old, and a 12 year old- none of whom drink. There isn't a person within 5 years of my age for probably 10 miles around, and exactly one bar who's owner knows that I am but 20 years of age. The only beers I have had have come with dinner a couple times a week, and since I didn't want to get drunk alone (maybe faggoty in and of itself) I cut it off there. In a week or two when I move back out to an apartment, my drinking habits will return in full force as the 3rd beer is certainly not ICK-y to me. The 7 beers I had, while not getting me "bombed" did hit me surprisingly hard, and in combination with the Tilly and the Wall had me feeling quite silly (faggot word, I know). With all that said, I respect your decision, and unless Dutch and Sal vote No, I will accept your ruling as supreme arbiter of faggotry and adopt the label.The defense rests.

Sal Paradise 57 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 both nights this weekend I was thoroughly buzzed off of my very first beer, and I spent the majority of yesterday in the bathroom trying not to vomit from the hangover. also, it turns out that it wasn't just a hangover and now I have some version of the flu. from drinking.so in conclusion, no, you are not a faggot, I am. I am king faggot, all hail. Link to post Share on other sites
DinkDonk 1 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Yesssssss. I have a shot. The problem is that the disappointment is going to be so much more acute when Dutch rips my dreams apart, now. False hope FTL. Link to post Share on other sites

JubilantLankyLad 1,957 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 so yesterday was the perfect autumn day - sunny, cold, crisp. great for wearing sweaters, walking the dog in the woods, and listening to albumn. but i had to work, so i was looking forward to today (i don't have a dog, but the rest i was totally up for). i woke up and it is many degrees below freezing, with ice everywhere. welcome to winter, autumn was one day long. super. welcome to life in the mountains. when are going to make a winter cd? since it's going to be probably 6 months or so, maybe we should make it a double-disk spectacular.
