  1. Anyone else who dies today will never be remembered. It'll always be overshadowed by QEII.
  2. They said Katherine wasn't there either. Maybe it's strictly blood relations allowed.
  3. Why? Because some people don't like him? He's been training for this his entire life. I'd tell everyone to fuck off as I put that crown on my head.
  4. My dad. Born into a loving but lower class family, left home for the military and served 26 years (enlisted, not an officer). Then worked for the VA for another 17 odd years. Through self-sacrifice, hard work and shrewd investing, is now a retired millionaire. Never brags about his accomplishments, never puts himself above anyone else. Most importantly for me, he never said to me "I told you so", when I gave him plenty of opportunities.
  5. I watched Ep 1 and I thought it was boring as fuck. No hate on casting or any nerd shit, I just wasn't feeling it. I'm sad, FOTR is one of my top 5 films of all time and I wanted to love this. I don't have any desire to watch Ep 2.
  6. My dad told me that he and his three brothers used to fight to see who had to sit behind my grandfather in the car. Gramps dipped skoal and when he would spit out the window, it would inevitably fly into the rear window and nailing the kid sitting back there.
  7. Driving to dinner tonight, the wife sees a car that jogs her memory (sort of): Wife: Seeing that 4runner there, are you friends with So-and-So on Facebook? She just got a new car! Me: No, I'm not. She got a new 4runner? Wife: No. I don't know what she got. But she got a new "something". Me: Then why even mention a 4runner? Wife: Well, her sister has one.
  8. They really need to put in a clause that prohibits conference rematches in the first round. So fucking dumb.

    London

    I'll be in London the first week of December. Haven't been in over 35 years, I bet it's changed just a tad.
  10. Do you mean "8-4, meaningless bowl game" fucked, or "5-7, lose to Kansas" fucked?
  11. I just want to avoid another 23-16 Missouri St shitfest like last year. Dominate and get the backups some reps, please.
  12. I just can't fathom having the mindset that thinks a payment this high is acceptable. I'm not some 1% guy that pays cash for my car, either. Shit, my mortgage isn't that high!
  13. He and Ronnie are tearing down that wall in heaven as we speak.
  14. This sounds like some people that are actively trying to avoid going home. I used to do that shit too, then I got divorced. Now I try to sneak out early every chance I get.
  15. You mean, win a second one? Because he's won one already. If you mean he should have more than one, I agree.
  16. FIFY. The old bags at my office would do this on the reg. I thought about telling them about all the piss on the men's room floor that us guys track back into our office, but I decided that not telling them is more fun.
  17. It's worse when someone doesn't bother to enter the required cooking time and just puts it on for 10 mins. Then they stop it at some random time and say "good enough" and leave it paused at 6:32 remaining and walk away.
  18. Relegation is so dumb. Imiagine a school gets bumped down a peg. Not only do you lose the money but you think these kids are gonna just stay there? Especially the seniors, they'll say Fuck This and take the first bus out of town to a better program.
  19. If someone takes my lunch from the fridge, I'm gonna pull your fucking card. You do not mess with a man's meals.
  20. We went to the local grocery store to pick up a pre-made cake for my dad's birthday. It had a decoration on the left and there was a small section where you could use icing to write your own message. We take it home and she wants to do the "writing". I say fine, she asks what I want her to write. i tell her "Happy B-Day, Dad", exactly like that, with "B dash Day". She asks again, like I got marbles in my mouth or something. I say it again and I tell her "Exacty like I said, B-Day, there's not much room and that will fit easily". I leave the room. She comes in all proud, "Look, I was able to get the whole word "Birthday" on there!". It looks fine but I ask her (for the 5000+ time in the last 13 years), "Why ask what I want if you are just gonna ignore what I say?". Tone. She does this all the time, "What should I say in this email?" or "What should I say to my sister about XYZ?". I tell her my opinion and she does the exact opposite. I keep saying I give up but she pulls me back in, like I'm some great value Michael Corleone.
