I'm sitting down in the living room shooting the shit with my 13 year old son who is in the chair next to me. My wife tells him to get up so she can sit where he is and talk to me. My son tells her that he isn't giving up his seat and says that he is just like Rosa Parks. My wife then chimes in that they arrested Rosa Parks for prostitution. My son and I both look at her like WTF? He tells her no, she got arrested for not giving up her seat on the bus to a white person. My wife then insists that the story of her not giving up her seat is accurate, but when they pulled her off of the bus they arrested her for prostitution. 

We need a new Things I Found... thread if it hasn't already been started.

Don’t know whether to laugh or cry, we drove down from Round Rock to San Antonio yesterday to check into a hotel to attend the wife's cousin’s funeral in  nearby Boerne this morning.
Anyway, after a blah hotel breakfast and while getting ready to leave for said shuffleoff services, Mrs. Brat checked her phone again for the church address and she discovered that the funeral is actually scheduled for NEXT Friday!

I get the feeling that your life at this juncture is one long road trip from funeral to funeral.  Wonder whose you have missed to be in boerne a week early. 

 

But you you know what they say...the early boerne gets the worm food.

No kidding - our friends & relatives are dropping like flies. Seems like most of our social gatherings are at post mortem receptions. At least I know there is one that I won't be around to attend.

Everyone knows that prostitutes have to give up their seat on the bus.

That's true everywhere as long as you're willing to pay the price.

Might as well head on over to the Dodging Duck for a few beers before you leave.

Do you realize that its possible to plug any USB cord into the power bank?

Late getting back to this...but that’s not the case on this one. It’s all pretty, and the outgoing cord is attached. There is no USB slot. Just the small charging slot, and the built-in outgoing charger. It’s a stupid - but pretty! - design.

There's a commercial I actually like where dude1 says, "No job, no family, just walk away. That's my number one fantasy." Dude2, "Number one fantasy pick."

This made me think of that, so thanks.

Typhoon Mary's husband does a lot of international traveling for work. He was somewhere in Asia the last week or so. She and him have been fighting really badly for months but especially while he's gone, with her sending some pretty nasty emails to him. He's supposed to be home Friday evening. About 2:45am she texts my wife saying he never came home and she's starting to freak. He's not returning texts, emails, calls, anything. She thinks he flew home and then decided to go off the grid. Like he just couldn't take her and the fighting anymore and said fuck it, I'm out. Or perhaps he got kidnapped or abducted overseas? She, of course, has no idea where he is flying in from or what airline so she can't really check to see if his flight was canceled. Morning rolls around, no hubby. Lunch time, no word. She starts freaking out even worse. Calling his parents, getting everybody in an uproar. She's waiting until some arbitrary time on Saturday before she calls the cops to put out a missing persons report. Then Saturday night, out of nowhere, dude shows up. Typhoon Mary had the day wrong the whole time.

[tbone_ 14020]

I saw that coming after the 4th sentence of your post. Outstanding.

I can’t wait until he divorces her ass and she moves in with Mitch. We will have all kinds of epic stories.

that's a dark commercial, with the existential question deliberately engineered by he creators. I wonder how many guys saw that and just mentally snapped?

[BearSchlong 8077]

So Mitch, about those emails is he the asshole or is she?

wait, are you talking about a hard cap on a data bucket (10 GB of data to share!) or are you talking about the soft cap on an unlimited plan (27 GB at LTE then we may throttle if there's congestion)?  because if the former, that's on you.  no excuse not to be on unlimited these days.

At this point, they have both become so toxic to each other that they must share blame. There is so much anger and resentment built up on both sides that they fight all the time and act terribly towards each other. But she is the root cause of it all, unequivocally. She has virtually no redeeming qualities whatsoever and he's been putting up with her ridiculous bullshit for years. His biggest fault is that he's let her drive him crazy. He should have left her years ago. The whole time he was MIA, I was thinking, "Holy shit, you magnificent bastard. You finally had the balls to get the fuck out and leave." I was so happy for him.

The big email fight is about her not wanting to go visit his parents for Thanksgiving. And oh yeah, his father is supposedly dying of cancer and doesn't have much longer to live. There's more to it than that but suffice it to say that she is an awful human being.

And she will never stay at my house under any circumstances for anything longer than one night in a pinch. If her options are sleeping under the interstate bridge or my couch, I hope she learns to block out the traffic noise.

If you had to rate typhoon Mary's hotness on a 1-10 scale. What is she?

[Mitch Cumsteen 18523]

Back in the day, she was by any objective measure, a very pretty girl. Nowadays she's carrying a lot of bad weight and looks very unhealthy. Maybe a 4? Or on the rare occasion that she cleans herself up, a 5? She's so unattractive to me as a human being that it skews my rating. I wouldn't fuck her with Vic Mackey's dick.

See, Walter Cronkite and his wife had a good arrangement - when he was traveling he could fuck whoever he wanted just as long as news of it never made it back to his wife.  If his biography is accurate, then he had a great thing going.

if he were alive in 2018, he'd have been #metoo'd.

I'm guessing that either one of those scenarios would have been acceptable to Typhoon Mary's husband?

Wife dropped her phone yesterday and cracked the screen. Today she got the screen replaced and, to show me that the replacement worked, she sent a screenshot. 

She immediately realized her mistake, but still. Goddamn.

Yeah, a screenshot won't work for that, you have to actually take a picture of the screen with the phone.

Not my wife, but my sister in law got married last weekend. They were scheduled to fly to Hong Kong for their honeymoon on Tuesday morning. <background - SIL is always late to every single thing> So they are running late to the airport, and her husband drops her off to go to the gate while he returns the rental car. Turns out he couldn't get to the gate in time, so what does she do? She gets on the plane and flies to Hong Kong without her new husband. 

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

I like the cut of her jib.
