Rose Bowl

Man, was I impressed with Texas, they certainly deserved to win, and USC certainly deserved to lose. While everyone focuses on that 4th and 2, I really thought the (around 2:30 left?)2nd and 7 play in that series was where they really missed Norm Chow. They are trying to run out the clock here. They have been averaging a good 4 yards a carry, maybe more. The call is a screen to a role-playing fullback of some sort, which Lenart throws erratically, and the back-up fullback is unable to catch. Clock stops. Now, they've had some success with this play earlier, but this situation is different, and the prior screens had been to White or Bush or someone who can fucking catch. I thought this play was idiotic, given the situation--it kept roughly another 30 seconds from ticking off, and gave USC a 3rd and 7.

Thoughts?

Finally I said to her "I assure you I will not enlist your help should I have to take my daughter to the emergency room." What I was thinking was "Who the fuck made you in charge of my kid?"
She was without shoes* the day I saw her too. What is the South Florida Social Services number again?

You live in Florida, aka the Buttinksy State. You're lucky Jeb and the ledgeeslature didn't pass "Brazenette's law" in response.

I only wear shoes when I absolutely have to. It is no wonder she likes to be barefoot as well.

So, I felt that if she wanted to hand out parenting advice, she ought to be able to hear some as well. It's not a sin to be fat -- I'm hardly some sort of toothpick -- but I figured it would be most likely to shut her up (and something she wouldn't be able to repeat to the daughter -- who was not within earshot). In my view, it's one thing for an adult to be fat (which she was -- a good 250 if she weighed an ounce), as adults are responsible for their diet choices. I also think it is rather irresponsible not to take more care of your child's diet. Of course, that's my view, and Shamu doesn't have to agree, or listen to it -- but if she doesn't want to hear others' parenting tips, she shouldn't be doling them out.
You should have told her that you were exhausted from getting it long and hard that morning, then suggested she should be getting more so she could sleep on the beach as well.

Until she switches hotels to get away from you, you have not really won.

Barefoot? Typical.

I'm sure you like being in the kitchen, too.

That is fringey. Doesn't everyone know everyone here already?

Let's just say (hypothetically, of course) that someone you know (let's call her dtp) was on a beach vacation (for example). While relaxing on the beach, a fellow vacationer awakens ms.dtp from her peaceful slumber to offer some officious parenting advice regarding dtp's eldest child. dtp nods politely, though the advice giver (let's call her Shamu) is way off base and it's none of her motherfucking business. dtp speaks to her eldest child and tells him not to play with Shamu's pups anymore, as Shamu appears to be mentally unbalanced.

So the dtp-offspring and dtp (and the help, natch) are enjoying some lunch, and Shamu won't let it drop. Shamu comes back (to the dtp LUNCH TABLE!) to offer further officious suggestions (and to clarify her prior advice). At this point, dtp has had enough and suggests that officious advice goes both ways. If Shamu wants to offer it, she should be able to hear it as well. dtp then proceeds to suggest that Shamu's daughter may want to lay off the cheeseburgers.

Shamu is shocked (SHOCKED!) that dtp would say such a thing, but doesn't mess with dtp the rest of the vacation.

So, my question for the expert meanies out there is, were such a thing to have occurred, would (the hypothetical) dtp's response have been (a) not mean enough, (b) too mean, or (c) just right?

Inquiring minds MUST know.
What does the "p" stand for?

That was just a red herring. I want to think of myself more as this:


Only without Darrin. What a lame husband he was.

Advice sought.

I am trying to work the word Cornholio into a legal document. Quotes or no quotes?

Thanks in advance.
