  1. Wife and I decided to travel tomorrow instead of today. Making sure everything is squared away with our house (pipes froze last night) before we take off. It's supposed to get above freezing today for a few hours. We'll leave first thing in the AM. Let the shit show commence.
  2. One of these days, I will make it to Truth. I'm a pickle person and those look delicious as well.
  3. Funny enough, when my brother and I were actually speaking (haven’t seen or spoken to him in over 12 years) we would always say that there was no family more disfunctional than ours. My mom would always say “be careful what you wish for.” My mom was right.
  4. Ho-fucking-ho and merry-fucking-Christmas to you all. Leaving town on Friday or Saturday and heading up to Tyler. This may get pushed back if the weather is shitty. My wife is actually meeting my in-laws today so that my son can have a few more days with his grandparents before we arrive. For the uninformed: I have two SILs. One is/was? a nuclear engineer whose husband didn't like her working long hours at a nuclear power plant so convinced her to stay home and essentially be a bum like him. She's now a rental property manager for a broker because they needed money and he's not going to work. He graduated from college in 2006 and has literally never had a job in his life. His resume is blank. My other SIL is a bat-shit crazy moron who likes to give my wife and I parenting advice even though she has no kids. But she was a nanny for 5 years! She's in her mid 40s and her "significant other" is a retired microsoft middle manager who is a crazy left-winged conspiracy theorist (think cloak room on steroids - but no CR). She's allergic to everything under the sun and has to have her own christmas and thanksgiving meals (who the fuck is allergic to fucking turkey and potatoes?) My FIL is probably one of the nicest guys in the entire world. He'd help anyone out who he can. He's also a packrat who loves to go buy random shit at auctions. He has over 75,000 nails. His garage is packed to the rafters with shit (which is how I ended up with weedwacker string as a christmas gift a few years back). He's an engineer by trade and loves tinkering with shit and building shit. Takes care of his neighbors, would do anything to help anyone. He just wants everyone to get along. ***HINT: there is typically a fight between my wife/my MIL and the 45 year old SIL over some stupid bullshit that makes me laugh and makes my wife just get pissed off*** Every year when we're driving home, my wife will always say to me - "We're not going to visit for next Christmas. I want to spend Christmas at our house because I don't want to ever talk to her again", referring to the high-drama SIL. Yet, here we are. The deadbeat BIL will mope around for hours on end, drinking hard liquor at breakfast and throughout the day and is in a constant state of depression. He hates being at my in-laws and they hate him. Hell, everyone hates him and they even talk shit to him to his face. He's the kind of person who I wouldn't be surprised if he went postal. His wife (my SIL - the former nuclear engineer) is great with my son and overall, a pleasant person to be around. I have no qualms with her whatsoever. My other SIL - literally no one can stand her. She marches around whining all day, nitpicking at random bullshit and is just tiring to be around. Her boyfriend just feeds this telling everyone what is wrong with society. Plan is to do the whole Christmas shindig with my folks on Christmas Eve (gifts, dinner, etc.) then spend the night at my in-laws, wake up and do their whole shindig. I'm not sure what I'm cooking for lunch over there (told my FIL to buy whatever and I'll grill it, just need a heads up). Christmas with my parents is so easy. There's only 6 of us. Christmas with my in-laws is a big fucking ordeal dealing with multiple personalities (10 people, 12 personalities), tears, yelling, and WTF christmas gifts.
  5. This would be up my alley.
  6. I put PB in my oatmeal in the mornings. Also, the Kirkland's brand 7 nut butter is legit, as is their PB.
  7. Can be a good thing or a bad thing.
  8. When you're done with the peanut butter, turn it upside down (with the lid on of course). Store it upside down.
  9. Live shot from Weigman when Petrino is hired as OC:
  10. I mean, aggy needs to know who to pull for in the playoff, right?
  11. You're correct. Krazy Karen says something along the lines of "there will be more transfers, this one is just the tip of the iceberg" and tarp comes back and says he can't say anything or identify any specific player right now because his credentials will get taken from him.
  12. Even if the parents give $10 to said outcasted family member?
  13. Donate my winnings to Burnt Endz fund please. Thanks @Wulaw Horn
  14. We also do a run every 2 or 3 weeks. We eat a lot of meat so I buy the chicken, beef and salmon in bulk. Their fruit is also top notch. Costco salted peanuts are better than any other peanuts I've ever eaten. Their nut butters (almond, peanut, etc) are fantastic and priced better than any other grocery store. Good spice selection too. That pumpkin cheesecake was absolutely amazing.
  15. Pretty sure he said it was from aggy.
  16. I don’t know if I should be flattered or sad. edit: my BIL hasn’t showered or brushed his teeth in 3 days. My SIL is bitching about it.
  17. My dad was still pissed this morning and accidentally backed into my car, side swiping my entire drivers side rear quarter panel. He’s moping around still, getting irritated with everyone. I just decided to leave in the middle of the game and go to my in laws. Tired of his winy bullshit.
  18. Correct. My folks and in laws get along very well and we do combined thanksgivings most years (either at folks house or my in laws). I consider myself an only child now as my brother has completely abandoned the family and hasn’t spoken to my parents or I in 12 years. That’s a story for another thread 😂
  19. Since our parents live in the same town and we have the only grandkid, we typically split the kid two nights with my folks and two nights with hers. I took my son out to my in laws this morning and put the turkey on and hung out/helped get dinner together. I told my wife that I’d be taking our son back to my folks house and just crashing there. We get back to my folks house at 7:15 tonight and as I pull in the driveway, my dad is coming out and putting a suitcase in his truck, my mom is following him…I’m thinking - the fuck is doing on here? I get out of the car and my mom says that my dad is pissed off at her and is leaving. OK - I go inside with my son because I don’t want him to be around that kinda shit. Come to find out that my mom called him out on his weight, doting on my aunt (my aunt is like a child and my dad treats her as such), and various other things in the one hour since they left my in laws and I showed up at their house. Apparently he packed enough shit to leave for a week but ended up coming back inside after about 10 minutes. I can’t make this shit up.
  20. Which part? Or allofit.gif
