Big deal. People are listening to disco again too. That doesn't prove it was ever worthy. It just establishes yet again that those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them.

I think this has been discussed on the FB before, but do you ever dream that there are rooms in your house that you hadn't been aware of? I have those dreams pretty frequently, usually they're pretty enjoyable. Isn't that supposed to represent aspects of yourself that you have not discovered or nurtured?

I assume you are familiar with all this stuff because you are saving up for a house? With a home theater stocked only with (bad) sequels?

If this has been discussed before, I don't remember, but I do have those dreams and your explanation makes sense. I will have to make a greater effort to remember those dreams. Thanks, pup(s)!

Or I googled "McMansion".

Houses are for suburbanites.

Iron Eagle 4 rocks though.

I'm guessing a dungeon with a lot of other women's husbands smelling of Febreze and chained to the walls... Right??

Whatever, man. I don't know why you're so mad. The only reason why they are so cool is because they look so bad. So, you're really saying the same thing the people who are wearing them are. Which makes you, not unlike them. Except you're not cool. And even if you were, they don't make them in your size.

c) put brick or fake stone on the fronts of homes and siding on the sides?
Brick is spendy, but really adds nothing to a house beyond aesthetics. Why waste money?

Yeah, and I think there was once this reality show about this cat who gouged out his own eyes after killing his dad and fucking his mom, and this dude didn't even live in some proley zip. And then there was the one about this raving bitch who killed her own kids just for revenge on her husband, who cheated on her with some younger chick whose dad was some well connected rich cat. I wonder what those psychiatrists would have to say about that. Some fucked up shit.
That wasn't reality. That was one of those HBO "docu-dramas" where you can't really tell if it's real or if they're making the shit up. I figured it out because the chick who played the mom was a total babe, and there's no way the dude would have gouged his eyes out with her in the house and dad out of the way.

The one with the bitch wife was real, though. It was an episode of "City Confidential." I'm pretty sure it took place in Georgia.

I htink you have me confused with gwinky. No. There are lots of well-hung reptiles, though, in my phantom rooms. And it smells like hickory farms, and there are felines and baby chickens. And a hamburger grill. And some dog with lots of heads.

Actually, honestly I don't remember other than thinking "but there is no room like that in my house" (or my old house, or whatever).


ETA I do remember some hot guy who is wearing a red (women's) bikini, though. I lust for him. He has an accent with really flat vowels and talks about bears (but not lions or tigers) a lot.

Less is more, though. It's the half-baked look of only part brick that looks like you were too cheap to finish the job. If you aren't spendy, fine, go with some other exterior.

I'm not mad, Skinny. I'm dismayed that Steve Dahl was unable to save future generations from the horrors that I lived through as a youth.

And I am too cool. I'm FB cool. Paigow told me so. And she invented that.
