  1. Hope someone wasn't counting on a 2 day delivery.
  2. The daughter has crazy mood swings. She'll go from shy and sweet to drawings dead parents on her bedroom wall. She's a year younger than my boy, really pretty, and our families are close. We thought it would be cute if the kids could get together in the future, but now... no thank you.
  3. Once again... on my commute to work, 2 lanes merge into 1. Normal people with logic, decency and common courtesy know the right move is to "zipper". My blinkers are on for 30 seconds and my SUV is already moving left. The driver in the Lexus speeds up trying to cut me off. Fuck you bitch. My SUV is bigger than yours. And this is a company car, I don't give a shit even if you hit me. It just means I get a new car earlier.
  4. Here's what it's gonna look in life size.
  5. We have friends who LOOOOOVE cruises. Mainly because there's free childcare. Don't blame them thought. Their 9 YO is emotionally unstable, and the 6 YO is secretly snorting Colombian marching powder, because he never runs out of energy. These friends also drop their kids off at their gym's kinder care room, and go get dinner before coming back to get their kids.
  6. Dial is a bit busy, but damn... that's (the Speedmaster) a good looking watch.
  7. Peeing into the ocean while you're swimming takes a conscious effort to let your bladder go.
  8. I appreciate people wearing earphones so not to bother others, but I don't understand hiking with big noise cancelling headphones. Yes I know noise cancelling mainly reduces droning noises, and doesn't cancel out voices and such, but if I'm riding up behind you and yelling at you to move over and you're oblivious, then I have a big problem with that.
  9. There's a reason they say you should only keep the teeth whitening strips on for 30 minutes. I put them on last night, put my invisalign retainer on it, and went on to play video games for the next 90 minutes. The teeth are noticeably whiter, but they feel like they're gonna fall out if I bite into an apple.
  10. Lol, perfect timing. We were at an amusement park yesterday (last hurrah before school starts). We were waiting in line for a rollercoaster. The line was in an enclosed space, and the guy in front of us smelled like he last showered in June. His hair was unkempt and plastered to his face. He was wearing a sweatshirt in 80+ degree weather and his white socks were more of a piss yellow color. That dude's aura of stink was of old sour sweat, Doritos, and fire balls. I pulled my kids back to stay 6' away and could still smell him. It was awful.
  11. On Sunday, my son was counting out his money: birthday, Chinese New Year money from grandparents and other relatives. He came to me with $500 and said "Daddy, can you buy me a stock that follows the S&P?" We drove past a beautiful red Ferrari on our way home yesterday. I pointed it out to my kids, and my boy said "That's cool, but it costs too much. I'd rather buy a good lucking, medium priced car." So proud of him. OTOH, this stupid kid wants something every time we go out. He got a large Stitch (from Lilo and Stitch) when he last went to Disney with his summer camp, and also bought a massive labradorite crystal for $50 because he's into stones these days... smart and dumb at the same time.
  12. Hawaii is an exception. The weather there is awesome, especially in the evenings. Peru is also great in May. We were there many moons ago. T-shirt during the day and a light sweater in the evenings (just like SoCal).
  13. Hippo is a move the downhill runner if you need to move the chains on 4th and 1. No lateral quickness at all. I could do this with him for 20 minutes.
  14. Well, depends on which cruise line you take. I’ve only been on Carnival - when my wife and I were first married. While it is not a floating discount retail store, the people were Walmart all the way. And agree on just sitting back with a drink at a beach or in the mountains. We did the mountain thing last weekend, and we went to the beach today. Now I’m on my patio with a spatchcocked chicken on the grill and a tanqueray and tonic sweating on the patio table.
  15. I don't watch much TV. But replace it with staring another medium screen playing video games, and
  16. It didn't look like it. Even if he did, that hit would have compressed his spine something fierce. He'll need surgery and one of these for a long time.
  17. Crinkle / ruffle thick cut. Grilled ribs flavor Most tasty Potato
  18. Someone call pest control. The poor woman has caterpillars on her face.
  19. I like the one with Cola bezel black/red and gilt hands and indices.
  20. Fuck Roger Waters
  21. We rented a pontoon boat over the weekend. My sister brought out her sunblock. Exhibit A: The boat is pointing north, the wind is blowing north to south. My sister (red dot) was about to spray sunblock. I asked her to go to the back of the boat (green cross) where it wouldn't get on anyone else. She said of course and moved to the back of the boat. Exhibit B: We turned West. The wind is still blowing north to south. Scenario IF my sister had stayed where she was. We pointed the boat west. Had she stayed where she was, the people on the port side of the boat would have gotten a face full of sunblock. Exhibit C Boat pointing west. Wind still blowing north to south. Sister actually moved to the back of the boat. But since my sister had moved to the stern of the boat, she didn't spray anyone but herself. Wife: I guess your sister didn't need to move since the wind is blowing from the front of the boat to the back. Yes, she actually thought the wind would change directions depending on which way the boat was pointed.
