  1. Clemson, maybe even Bama and Ohio St, would bitch-slap Dallas
  2. Is there any fucking valid reason why Pollard isn’t getting any carries? I fucking hate this coaching staff, this team, and everybody associated with it.....even including Frisco
  3. Absolutely, positively correct. I give the lower level worker one, easy-going opportunity to correct an issue. However, if not resolved, I kindly ask to speak to the person, that their direct supervisor reports to. It works every single time.
  4. Same goes for Jimmy Fallon.....the most brown nosing, kiss-ass talk show host, in the history of talk showing. I get pissed off just seeing commercials
  5. If you're really wanting to spend some time on a comprehensive autobiography WILL, by G. Gordon Liddy
  6. I'm very particular about order, both at home, and in my office at work. Everything has a "place," and I immediately notice if anything has been moved...even slightly - which is usually done, on purpose, by one of my kids, or co-workers, just to F with me. Of course, I return it to it's place, immediately. Keys, salt & pepper shakers, coffee pods, spoon rest, laptop, everything in bathrooms, remotes, dishes, garage.....even my dip can when I'm home. You name it, it has a home. Same things as my office at work.....legal pads, stapler.....paperwork.....you name it.
  7. Clemson or Alabama would no-doubt destroy Dallas......hilarious
  8. She’s been slurring her words, and can’t put sentences together for about the last 5 years. I assume she’s a drunkie, a pill popper, or had a stroke. She needs to be relieved of her duties.
  9. You meant to say that REM has 3 bad songs.....and that would be an unpopular opinion of anti-REM people
  10. Most pansy ass, supposed injuries on this team
  11. YAC’s with this defense is un-fucking believable, and inexcusable
  12. No shit on this Every fucking time Texas goes to fucking Lubbock, weird shit just happens. If the deaf, dumb and blind school were in Lubbock, Texas would find a way to make it a competitive game.
  13. When Stars are trying to clear the puck out of their defensive zone, they look like paint huffers Jesus, this has been ongoing for years
  14. I would certainly assume if they played in SF, they’ll play in LA
  15. That was precisely my very first thought.......he and his associates are sketchy, so nothing would shock me with those creeps
  16. Man, I hope she fucked that up on purpose Goddamn
  17. Fabulous recommendations.....with the lone exception of universal healthcare (go talk to Canadians about how that’s working out for them)
  18. My dad used to do the same buttermilk / cornbread combo. Still grosses me out just thinking about it....good memories.
  19. A single swing gate will work on both sides. You'll just need to install a new metal post on that 80 inch side. BTW, since you can't grow grass, why not just lay down some flagstones and fill gaps with pebbles, down both sides? That will significantly improve the look.
  20. Humane Society Plus, mixed breeds are kick-ass.....all 4 of y'all go, and you'll all fall in love with some particular, goofy ass dog.....that some POS dumped on their porch, threw out of a car, etc... all 5 of you will be happy!!
  21. I sincerely appreciate the comments. Posters on Surly/Shag/Hornfans are consistently awesome, as always. Great kids, stable job.....so I ain't bitching. \,,/
  22. Thanks for the "rock on,".....appreciated. And yea, I left out the college part of this...of all things. I tell my Senior the same thing, and that things will all work out just fine, in the long run (she damn sure won't be darkening the doors of GW, though....ha ). I tell the Freshman the same thing. They're good kids.....they hate me sometimes, I reckon, but they know I'm the parent they can rely on.....til whatever gets me, gets me!!
  23. I think I have a decent grasp of how f'd the world is right now, but, we trudge thru it. I apologize in advance, because in my current state-of-mind, my writing style is more stream of consciousness I'm in my upper 50's, single dad My 2 daughters (17, 14.....don't even bother asking for pics, pervs).....they flat-out refuse to speak to their mother, for going on 1 year (last year, they educated to me how f'd up their home-life was when they lived primarily with her.....that's being dealt with in family court).....their school district is on-line thru at least 4/17, but we all know it will remain that way for the duration. Their school district inundates parents with emails about how parents can "participate" in their kids "learning experience," but GD, there's only so many f'ing hours in a day. My oldest won't end up having her prom, or graduation - that'll probably be on-line, too......I feel quite sorry for her, but trying to keep her spirits up by pointing out that 20 years from now, her and her friends can laugh about being in the Covid / Corona Class of 2020. My job is stable, but, we've gone skeleton crew thru next week.....we're considered "essential," but still took this step for safety sake. I'm in management, so I continue working daily, and I'm salaried, but I worry what will happen to our hourly employees, as this carries on. Funding for last week and this week is covered, but after that, they'll likely have to start dipping into their leave time, or what they have left of it. On the good side, their positions are protected, but on the bad side, some will likely have to go LWOP if they don't have leave time. I'm up at 5:30a M-F, work out, go to work, then get home about 6:30 - 7p. By the time I get dinner ready, and they eat, it's like 8:30p. I've had 2 pretty serious conversations with them about how they need to help-out keeping the house up and running (sweeping, dusting...shit like that).....it's really hit-and-miss...if they don't do it, I do - I'm a little OCD about cleanliness, and 2 girls and a dog = daily sweeping Having said that, other that house-cleaning, overall, my kids are trustworthy, and good kids in general, so I just assume they've done what they're supposed to do for school. I do ask about school stuff, they say they did what they're supposed to, so, I just assume... I'm an f'ing dinosaur when it comes to technology, so I couldn't check up on that, even if I wanted to. All-in-all, work is the "easy" part of the day, because I can just concentrate on work. Home life is the craziest part of the day.....as I said, 17 & 14 year olds, getting cabin fever. Hell, I've probably given them shitty parent advice, in that I've told them they still need to live life, and can get out-and-about when they want to...told them that if cops pull them over to see why they're not at home, just tell the cops they're headed to the grocery store. GD man, can't live 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months, confined to your f'ing house. Sorry for venting.....this is just the crap running thru my head
  24. Crap like this is why I'm so f'ing cynical, about every estimate I get on every g-damn thing. Sad state of affairs that it's such an f'ing task to simply find a contractor, business, etc...that you can actually trust.
