It's after three breaks, two stories on a cat caught in a tree and an expose on spring breaks and girls-gone-wild.

And what is with those girls going wild anyway? I've been to many many many parties, and rarely, if ever, do girls lift their shirts, drop their drawers, and let drunken guys film their naughties. Upon watching one of the approximately 37,452 "Girls gone wild" documentaries, I am under the impression that any girl, any where, any time, will get drunk and show her stuff to the entire world.

Am I just going to the wrong parties?

Yes, not2Sharp=- that is what "rebroadcast" means. a word I used.

So stick to booze, porn stars and hockey. Its what you know.

What did we do when the Olympic hockey matches were on in the daytime? I don't remember.

Anyway, I'd say that providing spoilers for such things is simply a matter of courtesy. If the news, plot developments, etc., is more than a few days old, then a spoiler probably isn't necessary.

Paigow, there probably isn't anyway to completely avoid seeing that sort of news when online. Fricken AOL puts that sort of stuff on their welcome page, so I learn all sorts of things when I log in from home. (I know, I know -- drop AOL. In my defense, I have had it about 10 years, and it would be a huge pain to change email addresses, etc., for me, my wife, and our kid.)

Dude, are you getting too lazy to log out your chris sock and relogin your political sock? So sad to see a master end up this way.

Fuck! You're right, notwithstanding that Pantaloonie started out as a political sock two days ago and if I was posting a political rant about Ms. Garofalo it would have been about 10 paragraphs longer and referenced (1) the lack of fulfillment of A. Baldwin's promise to defect to the land of gaulois and monokinis; (b) the failure of Hillary C. to apologize for the VRWC thing; and (iii) the failure of Reno and company to apologize for the elian thing.

Still, you're right. I'm spent. I need to get back to the basics. Find myself. The real me and not some sockish perversion (except for the lactation lover perversion-that preceded the sock).

Is there a 12 step program for this type of thing?

Oh the humanity!

As I said, I promise I will keep the parasol to off-peak hours.

While we're at it, can we ban small children from trains and sidewalks during rush hour? Keep the weaving wandering monster on a short leash or in your arms and off the ground when I'm trying to get to a meeting, dammit!:brick:

Speaking about banning kids, another one of my fucking co-workers is currently wandering the office with his new baby. It is not as if we have not had the pleasure of seeing the little imp already (not only in person but in the e-mailed photos sent company-wide). Why can't people understand that this is a fucking place of business, not a damn baby show. Why do people insist upon bringing their wrinkly little ugly offspring into the office and then going from office to office for the obligatory "oohs and ahhs?" I have a kid, he has no place in the office.* Unless the little fuckers are getting paid to be here, in which case they better be generating some revenue, leave your children at home! I guess my biggest problem is that when someone comes into my office with a child/baby I just don't have the cajones to say "no, I don't want to coo over your fucking kid." I generally will find a way not to hold the kid, but it still wastes 5-10 minutes of time hearing the latest "he took the cutest shit" story. Sheesh.



*Unless he is sick or has a holiday and his father cannot get off work to watch him and I absolutely must be in the office in which case he comes into my office and sits with his video gams, toys and books and bothers not a soul.

I blame the terrorists.

I can't remember the last day it wasn't sunny. FWIW. NTTAWWT.

You actually said "recast" if you wanna be precise

paigowprincess
I am sure there are fewer people who went to Yahoo looking for the restuls than there are people who planned to watch the match REbroadcast on ESPN UNspolied tonight.

You should also avoid the home pages of

AOL, MSN, MSNBC and CNN

Um, maybe because there *was* a VRWC (assuming we are using a colloquial meaning of "conspiracy")?

Just go to any NASCAR event and camp there for the weekend and you will see more nakedness than you can shake a stick at. I recommend Watkins Glen or Talladega for the most prolific flashers.
Personally, I am bothered by anyone willing to bare her shit in public unless she is being paid for it. I know that the guys love it, but my experience has been that women willing to bare their shit to groups of men for free generally don't have much worth seeing. Why do I want to see the misshapen boobs hanging over the pooch of a chick with questionable hygiene habits? I suppose that for men, who are visual creatures, any chance to see nipple, even if it is attached to some hag, is a thrill -- this seems to apply regardless of the age of the man in question.

I wouldn't know what Hollywood celebrities thought about current events if it weren't for conservatives complaining about it all.

If we're just dropping the socks, that would be great -- I'm getting tired of posting as paigow. Mmm, carnitas.

This may be the first thing you have said that I agree with. I remain scarred for life from this time I was in New Orleans and a "girl" failed to give me fair warning before she bared her navel ticklers for some cheap baubles. <shudder>

Ooh! Ooh! I think I know this one! Because these people are excited and happy about having the child and want everyone to share in their excitement and happiness? Also, it gets them some attention which everyone enjoys every now and again? Are these right? What do I win?

Also, why do all you folks have such a hard time navigating on the sidewalk in a crowd? How freakin' hard is it to avoid people? You go left, go right, slow down, speed up, and give polite verbal cues to the other pedestrians. It ain't fuckin' rocket science.

Technically, it didn't matter because God had pre-ordained the outcome of that little tournament, but if I remember correctly most of the important matches were on at night or the weekend anyway. If someone had posted that woohoo Japan only lost 12-2 on its first game, I don't think anyone would have gotten angry.

Am I just going to the wrong parties?

Yes.

At one of the "right" parties I went to (back when I wasn't old and boring) some stripper girls (guest, not hired) came in, got loaded, and proceeded to have drunk stripper sex in the middle of the living room floor - seemingly oblivious to everyone else. The guys were utterly entranced - I've never seen anything quite like it.
