I Called In Sick Today


Recommended Posts

We have cathedral A-frame ceilings and zomg it is ****ing brutal. If I let a slight fart out she can hear the echo upstairs on the other side of the house.

 

 

 

 

I dont have time ta tell ya'll the details right now LOL! But I have the perfect solution to your problem...

 

 

 

Google active noise reduction and read up on it for a while

 

 

 

After we put in wall to wall bamboo in the den a couple years ago I had the same problem. Was drinking off one day and thought about my fansy pantsy Bose aviation headsets that has that feature. Figured if they could drown out two screaming lycomings maybe I could build a system to reduce echos in a room. It worked

 

 

 

Headed to the desert in a few. Ill try to explain the details once I drain all this pent up gambling....may take a couple days

and after 3 days, he is risen!

If you are paying $20 for a haircut, I imagine people assume you did it yourself anyway.

Pocket change cost me my first and only black girlfriend.   It was in the middle of a roaring poker boom and I was flush in ways most men don't even bother dreaming of. Money, it was like dirt to me

Are we allowed to ask about a Beans/Shake meet up, drive by? Beans, do you not make it to FL? We have Sebring, Daytona and other spots for car people as well as lots of alcohol

 

 

 

 

No.

 

 

 

Not really....Im a west coast type fellow. Ill visit your fine state one of these days. Is the Sonny Crockett look still in style?

 

 

 

Hopefully its changed to the five oclock shadow, goatee, bowling shirt, and camo shorts attire by now....

 

 

 

 

....with socks

Sonny Crockett is always in. As is Sonny Burnett. Only Beans may get that. Nobody else watched and liked Miami Vice during its first run besides Beansey and me, right?

 

If you visited Shake, couldnt you have fixed something while you were there

 

Fine, I'll go with Shake moving, but only if he agrees to post his goings ons i think he's got something going on now, considering he's been drunk a lot lately

Bleep shake. I'm here every day, in the trenches, taking grenades. Why couldn't mine have been to have sex with lady? Everybody would have voted for that one. I would have broken the rules and voted for myself.

NEW HYPOTHETICAL

 

If you had the power for anyone in this thread to have sex with whoever they wanted right now, including you, who would you choose?

 

 

Edit: Um, I think I put the "including you" in the wrong spot. Move it to after "anyone in this thread."

I want him to be happy.

 

yeah... that's not going to happen so you probably should just pick the hooker one.

 

 

 

finally got my new tools in today. by god these things are awesome. massive owners manuals though and I feel like I should probably read them. oh, and when I was picking up the extras, I saw some brush pruning reciprocating saw blades. pretty excited about those especially.

 

 

 

also: I now hate my job so much that I'm looking forward to cutting grass this friday night. it will be the best time I have all week.

Me, with me.

 

Wait, I already abuse this power.

I'm in a wedding this weekend. Not looking forward to it like I should be.

 

Why should you be looking forward to it? Is that a thing normal people look forward to?

You gotta bring your game face to this thing. Pain pills, flasks full of whiskey, a girl's thong "accidentally" hanging out of your jacket pocket like its a pocket square, faux hawk, watches on both wrists, so the ladies will be sure to know what time it is, fresh ass sneakers with your suit, or better yet, bowling shoes, bring your own Spork for the meal, 4pk of Magnum condoms, you wear a thong. I mean, pull out all of the stops. Make this your wedding.

 

You should also onsider bringing a 1980's boom box, you know, "in case this DJ sucks"

I don't know, I suppose I should be? Get to drink top shelf booze for free all night with a bunch of friends I haven't seen in awhile? I'm actually in the wedding. And I asked the groom what would happen if I work a fresh pair of kicks instead of the rental shoes at the wedding and he said "what happens at the reception, stays at the reception" so, maybe I'll buy a new pair. The problem is that since this is des moines there's no good places to buy fresh ass kicks.

So you have to rent a tux? That's a hundo right there. You have to give a gift, that's what, $75-$100 for you? What's the going rate for wedding gifts these days when a 4 hour open bar is involved?

I'm told the tux is around $200. I went in on a gift with a few other people for $50. I figure my having to take a day off of work (I got hours to burn, but still), gas to drive up to Minneapolis, tux rental and gift is sufficient. Plus, both their parents are pretty well off.

Yeah, you're good. $200 tux? Jesus. That's a bunch. What the hell does it come with? I expect a tweet pic?

 

What was the gift? Nobody gives gifts anymore. Give cash. (Not you Napster, you got stuck with that damn tux and drive)

I don't know. But it's got a cummerbund. Which I assume looks really good on fat guys like myself. Super excited. We'll see about a pic.

 

It's a patio table/set of chairs that was on their gift registry. I was just going to give cash but then somebody asked me if I wanted to go in on a gift so I'm like, sure. Why not.

We have cathedral A-frame ceilings and zomg it is ****ing brutal. If I let a slight fart out she can hear the echo upstairs on the other side of the house. I've been joking with her about it, but damn, it's really going to be a problem. Dozens of salesmen, contractors and various friends and no one mentioned that it might be a problem. Of course.

 

Deb was up until 3 in the morning stressed out reading about it and found out exactly what you just relayed, thanks. And I've been doing a mad hurried search online for possible rugs that she might like whose cost won't send me to the poor house. **** they can get expensive. If she keeps blowing money I'll never be able to spend a dime for anything I WANT! You know, hookers, blow, Vegas vacations, Rush tickets in Europe, or ANYTHING! Thing, thing, thing... thing... thing...

 

In laws have the same ceiling. If it makes you feel any better, my 8 yo nephew lives with them. My other 8 yo and 5 yo nephews live right next door. Imagine the echo with 3 rambunctious boys playing trains or trucks or just yelling constantly in there.

 

Who pulled Napa's string? Enough with all the posts guy

 

I love that saying. Need to work it into the repetoire more often.

 

I've also thought about renting a storage unit and making it into a makeshift wood shop. But I assume one big enough would be around $100/month and that seems expensive for a hobby. I guess I could try making some stuff to sell to subsidize it, but I don't know. I'm not that good of a woodworker.

 

$100 a month is NOTHING for a hobby. What's 3 - 4 rounds of golf a month cost?

 

We need a good hypothetical. Whiskers has been slacking on his appointed duties. I've been talking about how much I'm a pussy with women. Ronny has been giving advice he knows won't be used. Tiltys been saying retarded shit. Lets go whiskers.

 

Ronnie had just written the latest obituary for the thread since there'd been almost no activity that day and people on facebook were driving me crazy with their "live and let live" BS so I contributed.

 

And I've had sex this week. With a woman. So suck it friend boy.

Yeah, ok, when you put it that way. I spent like $60 on golf this weekend alone. However, that's like my only hobby. But I'd also have to buy all the tools and wood isn't free either.

If you lived with Suited, you'd be swimming in free wood.

 

 

Golf is a super expensive hobby. I thought about playing recently, then I realized that if I took the lady (she's better than me, used to play a lot and has played St Andrews new course in Scotland) it would be a hundred dollar day, between 2 rounds, a bucket of balls before hand, soft drinks, a dozen lost balls (i have a slice and wont search all day) and maybe a light lunch. I figured I'd rather just get drunk

Dammit all to heck. Was about to go to bed and what's on? Of course CSL just started at 10:30. Fortunately, the first hour is my favorite part, even though all of it is solid
