This is always one of my favorite threads.  Usually, I just kick back and enjoy some schadenfreude while reading other people's stories.  But this year is different.  My wife and I have been on the ou

Oh wow, 20% alcohol and metric fuck tons of sugar. Oh yeah, that's a way better way to get your AM drunk on.

Do you drink mimosas too?

I don't get drunk on coffee. Are you a fucking wino?

Kahlua tastes good in coffee. Mimosas with fresh OJ taste good too. If that threatens your masculinity, I'll just have to live with it.

You don't have instant coffee?  Who does have instant coffee?  You buy a jar of Folger's Crystals, you put in the cupboard, you forget about it.  And later on, when you need it---it's there.  

It lasts forever.  It's freeze dried.  Freeze-Dried Crystals.  

Sir, do you realize that you are not drinking regular coffee, but Colombian decaffeinated coffee crystals?

I didn't think it was a masculinity thing since I was called out for the idea of vodka in black coffee.

So maybe theres a sweet spot in the middle of feminism and outright degeneracy.

He was casting aspersions on anyone liking mimosas.

Right after he bitched about Kahlua being only 40 proof and full of sugar....unlike Bailey's, which is 34 proof and not full of sugar at all.

Not bitching but lamenting. Wife seems to have picked up a cold/bug of some sort. Just achey/congested/exhausted, and not in a cedar fever kinda way. So she's loaded up on Nyquil. The prime rib roast I do on Christmas eve is going to be pushed to tomorrow (no biggie...can make it for lunch & nosh through the day). I sense a trip to Don Don Express in my near future.

This is me. Achy joints started this morning and headache all day. We postponed tomorrow with my only grandchild but she is only an hour away. We can get together when I'm well.

Yall, can we quit arguing about low proof alcohol and get back on point?

Headed to my brothers in a few minutes for the aforementioned christmas-kah party.  I was out buying last minute gifts this morning and bought a indoor snowball fight.  See, the plan is to go load up my 6 and 3 year old nieces with sugar and possibly caffeine, and then go grab that out of the truck and start throwing them at the girls.

Wanted to shoot some ball today but I'm rained yesterday (wet court) and this afternoon was windy as all fuck

 

Temp was fine though for winter

Usually in Amarillo it's too fucking cold, but it was like 63 today so we made an afternoon of it.

Yay global warming?

He was drinking it too.

 

Oh, well, that's different. I was going to say you should've poured it down the drain and said you'd wait for the fresh pot. But if he was drinking it too then it really wasn't a gesture of disrespect. Maybe the opposite.

I'll reheat cold coffee in the microwave. I don't have a problem with that. But I'd never serve it to guests.

My MIL used to refer to me as her “favorite son in law”. That Mrs. Brat was her only child made me suspicious about her attitude.

My MIL's other son in law got killed in a shootout with the cops. So when she tells me I'm her favorite SIL, I tell her the bar has been set very low.

Head cold has really put a damper on my drinking today. Otherwise has been a pretty solid Christmas Eve so far. Putting the kids down to bed now and still need to wrap a handful of gifts. Don't think I've been sick all damn year until now. Was planning on boozing hard today, but just can't do it.

Oh well, Merry Christmas anyway!

Mother fuckers that confirm and then don’t show up to dinner when someone is paying to have it catered can suck a fucking dick. I understand things come up, but at least he an adult and pickup the phone. They don’t give two shits about the amount of money we threw away tonight because they couldn’t let someone know they weren’t going to make it. Good news is that I believe this is the final straw and I won’t have to mess with this shit anymore. /rant

He’s retired with more money than he will ever be able to spend in his lifetime.

He didn’t make, and keep, all that money by wasting it on coffee that goes down the drain. 

This post truly hit a chord. Every time I go to my wife’s grandparents I get coffee out of the microwave. We bought them a nespresso this year.

First Christmas alone this year. 

Took a new job and was unable to go to New York City where my family is celebrating Christmas due to schedule conflicts. 

If there's anyone out there celebrating alone, I'll be drinking double for the both us schmucks. 

Merry Christmas!
