Overnight Open Thread - Thanksgiving Eve Edition (Mætenloch)
— Open Blog

Good evening morons! I hope all of you are ready for Turkey Day and visiting family. And just to get to get you in the mood for it, here's a little family-time video. Good times, good times.

Some Classic Carol Burnett Show
It's Mama's birthday and sister Ellen is coming to visit. Part 2 is here where you find out what Eunice got Mama.

Are You Ready To Play Thanksgiving Bingo?
Even with a semi-normal family you've still got a decent chance of winning.

Levi Johnston's Mom Gets 3 Years in Prison for Selling Oxycontin
Her attorney claims that Obamacare would have prevented all this. Apparently with the public option she wouldn't have needed to sell the Oxycontin prescribed to her in order to buy uh, other pain medicine.

5 Crappy Musicians Whose Music Will Get You Laid
Well except for Jack Johnson I'd say it's worth it.

Russian Gold!
Meanwhile the Royal Canadian Mint seems to have misplaced $15 million dollars worth of gold.

The Chinese Monkey Man
Or maybe he's just a balding panda.

Are the 23-year Coma Man's Words Bogus?
He seems to have some level of consciousness, but I'm very skeptical of facilitated communication. It's basically a modern version of the Ouija board.

Calorie Burning Shoes
I guess they give you a workout while building up your calves. Almost makes up for the ugliness.

I call bullshit on Levi's mom. If she didn't have the drugs to sell, she'd probabaly be out selling her ass.

Just like she raised her son to do.

Yes. My fucking hockey game got shut off in the middle of overtime. Fuck you DishTV. MSG moved the blacked out basketball game to MSGplus, but for some reason my hockey game got turned off because of the blackout for the basketball game.

oh yeah... and I'm seeing my mother tomorrow.

19 Peaches, We're going to the Bay Area. Most of my relatives live up there, but we're only visiting my mom's sister and her family. I'm torn about what to do on Friday. My dad and my sis are going into SF to do tourist stuff and my mom and my aunt are going to be learning how to make Chinese tamales. I want to do that, but I don't want to be left alone with them, lol.

Keep stuffing that turkey, morons.

Posted by: Dang Straights at November 25, 2009 06:14 PM (djkiW)

37 Breasts (well, the Turkey kind) are way too dry for my taste. I feel the same away about chicken. The last couple of times I've made dishes with chicken breasts I've managed to keep them tender and moist, though. Not sure how I did it, but it was tasty.

48 I'm still here - until tomorrow when I fly to Chicago. Hopefully, I won't run into too much traffic getting to LaGuardia. Sadly, I will not be able to bring the laptop with me, so I'll be using the old standby iphone. At least my hotel has free WiFi.

49 I missed the food thread earlier, but for anyone looking for good stuff there were a bunch of ideas on last year's too if you want to check the archives. Too late for this year but you might find something worth keeping.

I keep buying the Glee music off iTunes. I bought the song "I'll Stand By You" and it caused me to spontaneously burst into tears. I'm still not recovered. WTF is wrong with me today?

Actually, I know the answer already. A big heaping dose of grief.

52 Fingers crossed that the food is good. Maybe you can find a good pool hall to hang out in while everyone else does their thing I think her cooking is better than her daughter's (my eldest cousin) but I'm not optimistic. And my creepy other cousin will be following me around probably. Oy. I wish my other cousins were coming but everyone's doing their own thing.

I tried to get the remote control away from her to help her find the game and she did an Exorcist on me, and I ran like I'd had my Man Card revoked. Like I don't know which side of my bread is buttered.

Give her sex after a good, bloody fight.

Give her brownies.

Since I probably shan't be posting much over the next few days -- I'll be busy conducting my miserable excuse for a personal life -- I wanted to wish my fellow Morons a very happy Thanksgiving. May God bless you and keep you safe over the holidays. May your hobo-hunting be fruitful; may your Vicodin-withdrawal be mellow. May your drunken rampages remain forever a shameful secret.

71 Are these the same people from the infamous wedding? Infamous wedding? I was in an infamous wedding? LOL, so much happened this year. It's my eldest cousin's younger brother. He's not really creepy in an evil way. He's a 30 year old man with the mentality of a 14 year old. He's not a bad person, but he's needy and always wants someone to give him attention. When I was 10 he and his mom stayed with us because my mom had appendicitis, and he followed me EVERYWHERE. He's a good 6 years older than I am and I was more mature at 10 than he was.

B) when I do shop the only thing I want afterwards is a long nap

Go ahead ladies. Take away my girl card for disliking shopping.

Posted by: Elizabeth at November 25, 2009 06:24 PM (hA5JK)

74 69 - I think it could also be our state - Connecticut. We still have blue laws here - which means that you can't buy beer after 9:00 PM on Saturday and not at all on Sunday. So, I'm betting here, at least, there won't be anything open. I am hoping that there will be something open in Chicago when I arrive but I'm not counting on it.

Posted by: Sassypants at November 25, 2009 06:24 PM (UScFS)

Have you failed to make the beer run and lived to regret it?  Uh huh, how many times?  HOW MANY TIMES? 

Get going, grasshopper.

I don't really like it either--at least not with other chicks. I find it really annyoing actually. But I do like to shop when I don't have to find something specific--that's when I find something good. Online shopping is always good-no annoying crowds or sales people.

96 I'm pretty sure I have at least 30-something cousins. But you have step-relatives, right? That's cheating! I keed, I keed. My other cousins have more relatives on the other side. One of my aunts is the youngest of nine and another of my aunts is the youngest of 7. So they have reaaaaaally big families.

Posted by: wherestherum at November 25, 2009 06:32 PM (gofDd)

97 92 - there is no way on earth I can shop with other females. It's way too annoying. And like Elizabeth, I don't enjoy shopping either. It's a production. If I know I need something, that's when I go out and get it. But I'm sure I'll be hitting Saks, Neiman Marcus and Bloomies in Chicago this weekend. Just because I'll be by myself and it's such a pleasure to have time alone and do things at my own pace.

It's a given that everyone is going to over-eat tomorrow and be all bloated and shit. Well, when the guilt sets in and you start thinking about how to burn those 10,000 extra calories you consumed, think about calories burned during sex before you start consider jogging or some boring workout.  Here are some tidbits:

Orgasm

Real 27 calories

Faked 160 calories

Orgasmic Intensity Scale

You begin moaning in Italian 60 calories

Locations for those of you traveling

rear of a Honda Civic 38 calories

On an airliner:

aisle seat 24 calories

middle seat 42 calories

window seat 30 calories

in the lavatory 100

Did someone say "shopping"?
Black Friday. This is one of the biggest shopping days of the year. It kicks off the holiday shopping season. Most stores will be offering unbelievable discounts. It's a great way to save a bundle on your Christmas gifts. The stores will be crowded. And you'll be shopping for hours. So, you'll want to plan your shopping expedition. First, Moronettes, find your most comfortable shoes. Then, grab some snacks and bottled water.
Next, you're ready to start on your list of items to buy. You'll also want to figure out what stores to visit. Here's a gift and some homework while your Turkey is cooking..
Here, here, here and here all post Black Friday circulars. They've been leaked by company insiders.
So, each site will have different ads. You'll want to visit each site when you're making your Christmas list.

Have fun out there!  Black Friday! ...*yeah..I'm looking at you WtR!*

Hockey is awesome. It's the only sport I know of where fine intricate skills are just as important as brute strength. And tonight the Rangers (my team) won in a shootout and so did the Bruins (his team). I watch a lot of sports, but nothing gets me yelling at the TV the way hockey does. Plus, lots of hot hockey players to look at Henrik Lundqvist is just yummy looking (goalie for the NY Rangers).

Man/ woman friendships are a myth. One wants the other, at least.

Posted by: Rodent Liberation Front at November 25, 2009 07:14 PM (dQdrY)

230 Hey, don't want to get too serious or anything, but the Wall Street Journal publishes the following each and every Thanksgiving. I think it's a great reminder of WHO it is we have so much to be grateful for - all those upon who's shoulders we stand today. Each time I read this, it also raises my bile to remember idiots like Matthews badmouthing American history and make stupid statements about people's color: Here beginneth the chronicle of those memorable circumstances of the year 1620, as recorded by Nathaniel Morton, keeper of the records of Plymouth Colony, based on the account of William Bradford, sometime governor thereof: So they left that goodly and pleasant city of Leyden, which had been their resting-place for above eleven years, but they knew that they were pilgrims and strangers here below, and looked not much on these things, but lifted up their eyes to Heaven, their dearest country, where God hath prepared for them a city (Heb. XI, 16), and therein quieted their spirits. When they came to Delfs-Haven they found the ship and all things ready, and such of their friends as could not come with them followed after them, and sundry came from Amsterdam to see them shipt, and to take their leaves of them. One night was spent with little sleep with the most, but with friendly entertainment and Christian discourse, and other real expressions of true Christian love. View Full Image The next day they went on board, and their friends with them, where truly doleful was the sight of that sad and mournful parting, to hear what sighs and sobs and prayers did sound amongst them; what tears did gush from every eye, and pithy speeches pierced each other's heart, that sundry of the Dutch strangers that stood on the Key as spectators could not refrain from tears. But the tide (which stays for no man) calling them away, that were thus loath to depart, their Reverend Pastor, falling down on his knees, and they all with him, with watery cheeks commended them with the most fervent prayers unto the Lord and His blessing; and then with mutual embraces and many tears they took their leaves one of another, which proved to be the last leave to many of them. Being now passed the vast ocean, and a sea of troubles before them in expectations, they had now no friends to welcome them, no inns to entertain or refresh them, no houses, or much less towns, to repair unto to seek for succour; and for the season it was winter, and they that know the winters of the country know them to be sharp and violent, subject to cruel and fierce storms, dangerous to travel to known places, much more to search unknown coasts. Besides, what could they see but a hideous and desolate wilderness, full of wilde beasts and wilde men? and what multitudes of them there were, they then knew not: for which way soever they turned their eyes (save upward to Heaven) they could have but little solace or content in respect of any outward object; for summer being ended, all things stand in appearance with a weatherbeaten face, and the whole country, full of woods and thickets, represented a wild and savage hew. If they looked behind them, there was a mighty ocean which they had passed, and was now as a main bar or gulph to separate them from all the civil parts of the world.

You can get a nice, basic one for general internet use for about $300 and one with longer battery life/more hd space for about $350.  I have an Asus EeePC which is what I'm actually using at the moment and it's fab. It weighs 3-4 pounds, the keyboard is about 80% of a standard laptop size and I've never had a problem with it.  Hell, I threw Windows 7 on it and it hasn't missed a beat.

283 The only reason people go shopping on "Black Friday" is THERE'S NOTHING ELSE TO DO! You're probably off work, the kids are off school, the TV is back to its usual daytime schedule of live broadcasts from the seventh circle of Hell, you cleaned up the house already Wednesday night and Thursday morning, and playing Monopoly gets too depressing when you find yourself wishing the play money was real cash.

So it's either sit at home staring at your family, or pack 'em up and drive to the MALL!  Where you can drag your unhappy kids through crowded stores full of other people dragging their unhappy kids around.  You can stand in line for two metric hours at the Food Court and then eat your lunch standing up while you wait for someone to leave a table.  You can try to find some god-damned thing to give your various loved ones for Christmas, which is pretty hard because like most adults they have more than they need already and never hesitate to satisfy any whim even if it's the middle of fucking December.

OR:  you can pull the Nintendo set out of the closet and just give the damned thing to the kids a month early, leave some cold cuts and bread out for them, and go spend the day after Thanksgiving as it SHOULD be spent:  at your favorite saloon, hoping nobody minds when you "forget" it's illegal and light up a smoke, playing Keno, and listening to old bores griping to each other and realizing with a start that they must have been in high school just a couple of years before you were.  By the time you get home, your kids and spouse are so frantic with grief and worry they're actually GLAD to see you.

295 So, besides the Internet, you can check multiple email accounts? I don't like being away from my email too long. It sounds like it's worth the money. Is your brand considered the best?

Oh I hate random noises in the house.  And considering I have the top floor of a 100+ year old house, there are always noises that I'm convinced are Freddy coming to get me. 

Yup, you can check multiple email accounts, run Office, play video, play music, that type of stuff.  Frankly, you can do everything but game on one. 

Acer and Asus were first to market and have the main market share.  The new Toshibas are nice too.  I'm generally an HP loyalist due to always getting incredible customer service, but HP's netbooks are overpriced and underpowered.  The HP netbook at the same price point as mine had a 16gb hard drive.  This one has a 160gb drive.  No contest. 

You're going to give up an optical drive but, really, that's not an issue for a travel computer.  I'd recommend going to a store, pounding on keyboards to see which you like, then hitting Amazon, etc. to get the best price.  I think Amazon has pretty much the entire stock on sale at the moment.

Well, I came in from walking the dog, and leaned in and buried my face into her fur and motorboated her.

Once she was satisfied that I still love her, I started dropping clothes across the house from the door to my computer desk. I waggled at Elizabeth as I passed her.

I sat down and dug to the second knuckle in my belly button to give it a good cleaning, and then wiped it on the cat. He digs it. And he's retarded so he doesn't know any better.

Then I hit refresh and started talking again.

Normal night.

Good evening, Katya, how goes the Thanksgiving prep? IÂ’m supposed to be making mashed potato casserole right now but I am procrastinating instead.

 

Dinner is at my brother-in-law's house, which is only 10 miles away.  I already have the cauliflower salad and 2 cheesecakes made and chilling in the fridge.

386 Eh, what?

That's what I said. He dated my sister in high school. Then he came out of the closet and had a few boyfriends. Then he joined the military and when a question arose he married a girl. *shrugs* He fought in Iraq and Afghanistan so I'm not going to ever  say anything bad about him.

Posted by: Elizabeth at November 25, 2009 07:46 PM (hA5JK)

387 I've decided that we need to TAKE BACK the Friday after Thanksgiving.  I'm tired of this "Black Friday" crap:  somehow it's now my PATRIOTIC DUTY to go out and buy the crap that I didn't want the LAST time I went to the store, so I can help the economy and not make Baby Jesus cry. 

Well the heck with that.  I say we make the-day-after-Thanksgiving into something more fun.  More cool.  Something WORTH skipping work for.

From this day forward until the ending of the world, the-day-after-Thanksgiving shall forever be known as FIRECRACKERS IN THE MAILBOX DAY. 

If you've never put a firecracker in a mailbox, it's a hoot.  Results vary depending on what kind of mailboxes your neighbors have.  If they've got a big roadside one, the blast sounds like a shotgun but probably won't do much damage.  If they've got a wimpy little nailed-to-the-wall mailbox by the front door, a biggish firecracker can blow off the tacky plastic ornamentation.  Door slots are only good if someone's home -- or if they've got a dog you don't particularly like.  It's your call as to whether you put the firecracker in before or after the mailman stuffs the box with lovely flammable paper.

You can do one big M-80, or a whole string of those little Chinese suckers.  It's all good.  And since the cops are all out by the mall directing traffic, it's consequence-free!

(Note:  any little asshole comes around my mailbox had better watch it, is all.)

HAPPY FIRECRACKERS-IN-THE-MAILBOX DAY!

My gay guy friend story. There was this guy that I had a total crush on in college. We were in the hot tub together and I ended up sitting on his lap. It was obvious that he was not rising to the occasion as it were and he was sort of embarrassed because everyone else was teasing him. Then he leaned in and whispered in my ear “I’m sorry, I’m gay.” Crush ended. But we remained friends in college though I lost touch with him after college.

Once she was satisfied that I still love her, I started dropping clothes across the house from the door to my computer desk. I waggled at Elizabeth as I passed her.

I sat down and dug to the second knuckle in my belly button to give it a good cleaning, and then wiped it on the cat. He digs it. And he's retarded so he doesn't know any better.

Then I hit refresh and started talking again.

601 And you're sure you're not a chemist? Inside every chemist beats the heart of a closet pyromaniac. I am a pyro, for sure. But I got a C in chemistry when I took it in high school at the local jr college. I think it was a gentleman's C too because I was so lost in that class.

603 572 TexasJew, you tried the 200 proof ethanol?  Are you serious?  It wasn't denatured?  How pure was it?  That shit is dangerous.

Posted by: chemjeff at November 26, 2009 12:18 AM (F+U5/)

It was 100% absolutely pure ethanol. As you know, the final step of dewatering the remaining 5% water in the alcohol is costly. An ethanol alcohol series is when you thin section a series of samples, put it onto the slide and dry it out by dipping it in a series of more and more pure alcohol, up to the 100% level. This was ages ago, so I don't know if it is still done that way.

With all the crap we were putting in our bodies back then, it barely raised a blip.

For those seeking recipes, there is a picture of a Guinness infused turkey on Instapundit that looks unappetizing but sounds delicious.  Also he has a link to someone that has Thanksgiving Day recipes from Gourmet Mag and its last issue.

Finally, don't forget to see his link on more climate hoaxers getting busted, this time in New Zeland where they were pulling their shenanigans.

That is all, carry on (one bag only).

>>Just ask any Russian...

Speaking of Vodka... It's kicking my ass!
Some Statistics: A glass of alcohol kills about 1000-2000 brain cells, which we know will not be regenerated. Now, let's look at this problem from a mathematical perspective: A brain has over 3 billion cells, out of which only about 10% are functional. The other 2.7 billion brain cells are extra. Glass of vodka = 1000 brain cells. It means a human can have 2.700.000 glasses without much harm. If every 2.5 glasses = 1 bottle of vodka, than we get 2.700.000/2.5 = 1.080.000 bottles. If one would drink every day for the next 40 years, 40 x 365=14000. Let's divide bottles by the days, 1080000/14000 =~ 77 bottles of vodka every day. Conclusion: All the brain cells would be dead if one* would drink about 10 bottles of vodka for breakfast, 40 bottles for lunch, and 30 for dinner.
* brought to you as a public service to Blazer.

Nothing to bomb or burn for,
No Ayatollahs too,
Imagine all of Islam

Imagine deserts blooming,
I wonder how Jews can,
Using soap and hot water,
Instead of toilet hand,

Sparing the ferengi dogsÂ…

early version of the SEALS in the 50s.

The SEALs developed from the UDT teams developed for D-Day.  Basically underwater demolitions engineers who would swim up to the obstacles, attach explosives, and clear paths for the landing craft.  Under fire, in 50 degree surf.  In other words, balls the size of garages.  They were bad mofos, in the 50s they were going ashore in Korea and China before we even defined 'special forces'.

Because the truth is that you can never truly know another person. You just get exposed to deeper and deeper layers of their personality over time and circumstances, but there will always be a core that's unknown to you.

Luckily most people are pretty consistent down through their personality layers so if you can get beneath their surface layer, then you have a roughly good idea of what they're like. Occasionally you meet and get burned by people who are not like this, but on the whole they're relatively rare.

GregInSeattle, my ex-father-in-law worked at the Navy Shipyards in Bremerton. One year for family day we got to go on several ships that were anchored there for repairs. It was so awesome, IÂ’ll never forget it. I canÂ’t believe how absolutely huge the hangar of the aircraft carrier really is.

 

I also got to see where they worked on nuclear submarines, since thatÂ’s what he did, machine work for the submarines.

Thanksgiving is finally here! If youÂ’re like me, youÂ’ve been preparing for this day for weeks. But before you dig in to your feast, letÂ’s take a moment to reflect. After all, the holiday is about so much more than food. The past year and a half has been rough on us all. But we still have a lot to be thankful for. We have the friends and family that helped us through the rough times.

We still have our freedom. LetÂ’s not forget the sacrifices our troops have made for us. Nor should we forget those closer to home: the police, firefighters and emergency workers who guard our safety. We should also take some time to remember those who are less fortunate. This year, millions of Americans will turn to food banks. You can help by making a donation to a food bank. Or, volunteer your time.

Your help will make the holiday season a little brighter for others. And thatÂ’s what the season is all about! My best to all of you 'roons!

I just got back from Houston, and on Westheimer, about a half-mile west of the Galleria, there was a  brand-new ... Taco Tote on the north side of the street. I didn't even know that they had any awway from the border.

I got so excited, I called my wife in El Paso.

Crystal, I don't think you LUCKED out at all.

You are the perfect AMERICAN.  In my opinion. 

You are very very bright.  Very very very wise.  You are very good. And you live by your principles.  You make mistakes like all of us do. You learn from them and you grow.  You also are humble and not afraid to be PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE for your choices.

I sincerely love you.

Yes, weÂ’ve had a collection of channels in HD for a while now. But, now there are a bunch more being added. And the ones being added now seem to be on the east coast schedule not the west coast schedule.

I mean weÂ’ve had the main network channels in HD for a while, also the premium cable channels. And last spring we started getting channels like KOMO2. Then we started getting even more channels than that. I donÂ’t know, I canÂ’t even figure out how many damn channels there are now and where the hell they are.

Yeah Editor, my son discovered them sometime last week, all of a sudden we were watching shows that were supposed to be on at 8pm at 5pm and it was confusing the heck out of us. Then I realized heÂ’d somehow gotten it way up in the 600s and wasnÂ’t on the regular channels.

989 You guys notice anything strange or some glitchyness with your digital cable lately?

Digital cable has always been a crock IMO.  At some point they WILL run into the limitations of Shannon's theorem, then its game over.  The inevitable consequence will be implementation of rolling digital brownouts.

When the cable usage became bidirectional, it was game over.

992 When they add channels in HD isn't it their obligation to come to your front door, get on their knees and say, "This channel is now available in HD.  Please, please, please forgive us for not offering HD for the last 60+ years.  If you'd please take this scourge and punish us for our sins."

993 #973  Blazer  Yea.. I just bought a HD TV to replace a old 20 year old 14" kitchen TV that had cable. Took almost two hours to program it. (read the instructions carefully) The new HD has stuff like channel 13 + 13.1 13.2 13.3 13.4 etc. It does not exist on any other cable TV that I have. If you do not program the old TV set, you are missing out on other programs. This must be a national thing. I have Time-Warner cable. You?

They want you you to buy a special convert box. Plus you need one of the TV's that can accept the cable signal . Its a money scam i'm afraid.

You know speaking of separating trash, my son’s school has this socialist teacher that has turned the place all “green” with all sorts of recycling and clean-ups and keeping the lights off and signs all over like “use only one paper towel” stuff like that.

 

So now I go out of my way to make even more trash. Things I know could be recycled, I throw in the trash.

 

Yes, yes I am passive aggressive, why do you ask?

1169 You do realize Miss. Riefenstahl, that I'm just typing here and this is not how I actually speak, don't you Miss Spelling Nazi ?

Posted by: Blazer at November 26, 2009 03:31 AM (+FzLa)

Since all we see across the net is text, no. Logic much?

Does reading somebodyÂ’s Facebook profile after they friend you count as stalking?

--Naaaah.

But Googling is?

1171 Charles Barkley just stepped in it on Kimmel.... He said fantasy sports players are losers.  He just insulted 37 million Americans.

Googling, yes.  Using Bing, no.

Well GregInSeattle, I read your profile but I didnÂ’t Google you.

1174 the best thing I learned from LA traffic (other than obide by LAPD requests/demands) is that even if there isa traffic jam, I just prefer to opt-out I learned a LOT about the Valley looking for less backed up ways home, lol. So I'm really good with the West Valley and North Valley. I also know a lot of side streets on the Westside around Brentwood, Westwood and BH. I still get lost Downtown, but I don't spend a lot of time there. I also know my way around Pasadena pretty well.

1175 Haha, did you guys see the pic of Obama getting into a limo clutching a copy GQ featuring a picture of himself on the cover?

1176

Since I am among virtual friends here, can I just confess how very much I DONÂ’T want to cook Thanksgiving dinner? I am regretting the impulse that had me inviting people to dinner. I received invitations to join others, or I couldÂ’ve just stayed home by myself in my PJs, curled up watching classic movies.

 

But, no. I had to be all “hostess with the mostest”. Idiot.

1177 1175- Yes. He was probably taking it home to whack off to.

1178 There's A LOT more info on me on my profile than anywhere else on the 'tubes.

Ah, the questions the modern age creates!

Posted by: GregInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:39 PM (B5cM9)

1179 Aww, PGiS. If I lived closer I'd come over and help you. I actually miss cooking. I've never cooked for more than 4 people, though.

Posted by: wherestherum at November 25, 2009 11:40 PM (gofDd)

1180 1162 What do you mean? There’s “Deep in the Heart of Texas” and “The Yellow Rose of Texas”

It's just that TX is so different than from when those songs were written (mixed bag on that subject, IMO). Regardless, if I had to choose, my pick would be Yellow Rose of Texas.

Ah, the questions the modern age creates!

 

And the answers it provides. Or, sometimes, mysteriously, not.

Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:42 PM (RZ8pf)

1182 1178- That's why I've felt kind of uncomfortable "friending" AoS morons on Facebook ... Don't really know if I want them knowing too much about me. Then again, I am on the fan page ... It is a dilemma.

Alright, I'll admit, I'm a bit on the defensive, so fuckin' sue me. Check out the DiT thread. I didn't see you guys swingin' a fuckin' broad-sword tryin' to defend our honor. Excuse me if I find it hard to dial the violence down a notch.

Oh yea, and Rat Fucking Front, go fuck yourself.

Posted by: Blazer at November 25, 2009 11:42 PM (+FzLa)

1184

Thanks Rum, thatÂ’s sweet. ItÂ’s my own fault. I was afraid I would be lonely this Thanksgiving since my son is at his DadÂ’s. Which was a false assumption because I always receive plenty of invitations to other peopleÂ’s houses. And, it was also a false assumption on my part that IÂ’d even want to be with people this Thanksgiving.

 

But, the die is cast, the casserole and relish are in the fridge, the turkey is awaiting its butter bath, and the dining room is almost dine-in-able.

Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:45 PM (RZ8pf)

1185 Like I said, I couldn't piece too much together of myself.  Not that I'm worried about any ex's, they're all married now, and only one was crazy.  It helps having attention hores with your name to obscure the facts.

Posted by: GregInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:45 PM (B5cM9)

1186 Oh yea, and Rat Fucking Front, go fuck yourself.

Didn't know about DiT thread. But that doesn't excuse you being and asshole.

How about I fuck you instead?

Posted by: Rodent Liberation Front at November 25, 2009 11:46 PM (dQdrY)

1187

I know Girl Thursday, I felt the same way. And, actually, itÂ’s already proven to be a bit of a mistake in a couple of cases.

Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:47 PM (RZ8pf)

1188 Have fun, PGiS.  You're doing a good service, I'm sure.  I'm really lucky, all 3 of my sisters and my step mom are all gourmets.  We always have AWESOME holidays, full of quality food.

Blazer, I hear ya.  Speak your mind if that's what you think.  Nothing wrong with that!

Gotta pass out so I can start drinking again bright and early!  And that turkey ain't gonna cook itself!

Please remember all our families...close and extended...and especially those serving our country in so many different ways...for the rest of the weekend (read:  year).

Happy Thanksgiving y'all!!!!

G'night

1191 I've "friended" morons on FB who I'm not really sure who they are....  The good news is that I can tell they're conservatives based on their profiles.  As a dude, I don't care too much about my anonymity, but the Moronettes ought to be more careful.

Oops, is that sexist?

Posted by: GregInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:50 PM (B5cM9)

Nope. It's reality. And, also, sweet of you to look out for us.

1197 Even if I were on Facebook I don't know if I'd join any of the groups. I'd probably just friend specific morons.

Rum, if you joined Facebook I could friend you and then we could talk to each other outside of the moronosphere.

Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:57 PM (RZ8pf)

1201 I think I'll turn into since I have to be on the road bright and early tomorrow. Good night, everyone. Have a happy, safe and wonderful Thanksgiving.

Posted by: wherestherum at November 25, 2009 11:57 PM (gofDd)

1202 PGiS, don't worry, I only cyber-stalk my first crush : )

Posted by: GregInSeattle at November 25, 2009 11:58 PM (B5cM9)

1203 PGiS, if you have a Gmail addy we could chat that way. That's how I talk to Elizabeth outside the blog.

1204 Or heck, even just via email.

Posted by: wherestherum at November 25, 2009 11:58 PM (gofDd)

1205 OK, I'm out, too.  I don't want to become too much of a night owl.
Everyone have a great day tomorrow with friends and family!

Hey Rum, if you were on Facebook would you promise to start a Chinese laundry?


Posted by: Blazer at November 26, 2009 12:00 AM (+FzLa)

1208

One more thing.

OK the FB thing...man, if some (OK many) of my friends see that I'm on the AoS list or another OBVIOUSLY conservative list I'd be reamed (for no good reason but still...that's how they work).  My family knows what I think but we just don't talk about it (fkn LIBS, all of 'em I swear!).  If you read my profile its OBVIOUS what I think politically but most of my "friends" and even family don't read that much.  Like I said, Libs.

Which means I'm glad to have peeps like y'all who understand what I think. 

Merry Christmas!

Posted by: NC Ref at November 26, 2009 12:00 AM (6igqT)

1209 I'm going to turn in too. Otherwise, I'll be super cranky tomorrow (I mean "today").

Posted by: Girl Thursday at November 26, 2009 12:01 AM (04Mt3)

1210 Hey Rum, if you were on Facebook would you promise to start a Chinese laundry? Just for you I would, Blazer.

Posted by: wherestherum at November 26, 2009 12:02 AM (gofDd)

Rum, IÂ’ll send Elizabeth a mail in Facebook and give her my e-mail to give to you.

Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle at November 26, 2009 12:03 AM (RZ8pf)

1212 PGiS, Oh, that works perfectly. Coolio. I forgot she was also on the Ace FB group. Now I'm going to turn in for real. Good luck with Thanksgiving tomorrow, PGiS. And to everyone, eat well and be merry. Cheers to you all!

1213 Good Morning Morons

I see the "dedicated" 1981 turbo Trans Am.  What a dog of a car. My wife's Crown Vic has more HP. 1981 was a bad year for the T/A, a bad year for pony cars, and a bad year for cars in general.

Those were the initial years of heavy government intervention in the design of automobiles and it sure showed. It is no random coincidence that this was the period when foreign cars started grabbing huge sections of market share in the U.S.

Guess what, we are about to go through those years again.  Only this time it will be much worse.

1216 I watched Matrix 2 on AMC last night, it still sucked.  Worst movie sequel ever?

Posted by: gau at November 26, 2009 12:37 AM (n1uMU)

1217 Actually, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was probably the worst sequel ever, now that I think about it.  The absence of Karen Allen was a fucking crime.

Posted by: gau at November 26, 2009 12:48 AM (n1uMU)

1218 New Wave Hookers 2 really didn't live up to the promise of the original. Total letdown.

1219 Yep.

I can't imagine I missed much over 1000 posts.


HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

1221 Texas has about five separate accents. Then, when you get way the hell past Van Horn in West Texas, on the way to El Paso, you get no accent at all. It's more like New Mexico.

I've driven that on I-10. To get accents you have to kind of have people there. Damn that's empty country

1223 Wow. I guess it's a good thing I went to bed fairly early last night. If I had stayed awake much longer I know I would have been up all night talking to you morons.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

You will surely be the most shining star on the party with this bag. The good news is that it is the latest model so that it is rarely seen in the market now . You will be the unique one if you grab the chance to get one.
