Crid, this song always me think of you.

Miah at the Movies 1 & 2.

Think of me often, Jimpasaures, for I persist in your consciousness with good reason: Without me, you're nothing.

(Hi, Raddy!)

Without me, you're nothing. -- Crid [CridComment at gmail] at March 11, 2013 10:10 PM

Yeap. Without my asshole I'd probably blow up and die.

Amy asked for bitch, and you were ready to deliver. Who was the funniest man you ever met?




Popetime is at hand.

Ms Waller raises an important question.

Good Smolinski & Selko.

This first, then luxuriate in our fuck-edness.

Air travel. Pop singer.

Note for Noo Yawkuz.

Julian joke.

Breakfast.

More Smolinski.

Inspired graphical sarcasm. I'm going to steal that next time i post a note in the breakroom

Compelling, accessible narrative in under 140.

Have you heard the one about the former soldier who had survived pepper spray and mustard gas? He is now a seasoned veteran.

The little children ask, "How weird was puberty in the 1970's?"

The answer is, it was pretty freakin' weird.


This guy again.

Horrifying final line:

“Detroit is a microcosm of what’s going on in America, except America can still print money and borrow,” Mr. Boyle said.

Do you suppose Barack Obama has ever paid off a loan in his personal life?

RE Dr. Mike link above: I noticed several books were advertised on the side of the page. Anybody have a recommendation of what to select? I just half-assed my way through a low-carb week (ate the burger skipped the bun, ate the steak, skipped the potato, etc) and lost 5lbs. Creeped me out, since I've actually eaten more this past week than is typical, but I'll take it.

Does anybody here have these books? Recommend any? I'm completely swamped at life right now, so something that either provides recipes, or recommends dishes that are simple enough to figure out would be ideal.

Amy, thought you would enjoy this piece in the OCWeekly. It fits in well with your ongoing theme of modern public manners (and the unfortunate lack thereof), don't you think? :-)

Five Types of Diners Who Need To Be Blacklisted From Restaurants Forever

Good article qdpsteve. One that was not mentioned but I have personally experenced is the diner who inevitably will send the meal back and say "It's not what I expected" or "it's just not very good", and request something different. A friend of mine's wife does this at every single sit down meal, and we stopped going out with them as a couple. She probably could be lumped in with "the attention whores".

Thanks Eric!

Because racism!

At least he copped to it.

It must be weird to move through the world with that kind of sensitivity to abstractions.

Well Crid has never answered the question?

Your feelings have been hurt: We get it. But flat, tepid insults aren't repartee. Bitterness from talented people is no more alluring than that of goofballs.

Be interesting, Jimpers.

But flat, tepid insults aren't repartee.

Then why do you use them?

Bitterness from talented people is no more alluring than that of goofballs.

Given we've only seen your bitterness perhaps you could point out some from a talented person so we can compare for ourselves?

boring

Sorry, I forgot you cant recognise talent.

Come on crid, the set up is too easy.

When your life is bitterness, that's what you see. But I'm not your whiskey-drinkin' Daddy. I link to talents and thoughtful things here all the time. You don't see them: You're attuned to meany stuff and nothing else. "Eugenics." The consolation of humor in irony is wasted.

You two should get a room.

Five Types of Diners Who Need To Be Blacklisted From Restaurants Forever -- qdpsteve at March 12, 2013 11:10 AM

I have been a dishwasher, a prep cook, and the main cook at several family restaurants over the years. I also know what the wait staff goes through.

So my girlfriend are out to have a jacuzzi hotel suite and nice dinner romantic Friday out. We walk into the <medium-upper chain restaurant$gt; and order the salad bar, she was a sirloin medium well and sides, me a rib eye medium-rare and side stuff and bar drinks.

We do the salad bar. Drinks show up on time. Her order shows up at about the 30 minute mark and about five minutes before mine. Hers was closer to well done, but she isn't a steak connoisseur. Mine finally shows up and is basically well done. The second beer for me is delivered by some other waiter. The check-in from another waiter was about 8 minutes after my order arrived, which was too late to ask for a reorder. And my GF was really only partially satisfied.

The waitstaff got a 10% tip and even that was lucky. I have stayed near that same restaurant since then. I still will walk the extra fifty yards to a different restaurant chain.

Once the wait staff pisses me off, they should feel lucky that I don't talk to management.

That was the second time I did a 10% tip intentionally.

Actually crid, I'm attuned to giving you hell ever since you called me stupid and lazy because of my dyslexia.

I dont mind being called stupid when I do something stupid, or lazy when I'm being lazy; but you, crid, are the type of person who would call a parapalegic in a wheel chair too lazy to stand if he disagreed with you in an argument - and that makes you a petty asshole.

And one of my few joys in life is harassing petty assholes like you.

It never happened. I never said "You're stupid and lazy because you have dyslexia." Quite the the reverse, I said dyslexia wouldn't excuse distraction, willful misinterpretation, and juvenile anger. I noted that treating you with respect and courtesy had made no difference, that you comment as a wounded child no matter what. Taunts about disabilities, chat about the weather, all the same. This is all in the Google cache... Every now and then I jump back a few years and read old comments. Your behavior is consistent across any response to it. This isn't about me, and not about others.

Paraplegics adore me, and not only for my stunning good looks.

Nope, sorry asshole, your assertions about my character were in regards to my spelling not my attitude.

People on this site have said worse about my attitude and positions, but they've never made the charge that a physiological abnormality in my brian made me stupid. You did.

Right... what happened doesn't matter. I believe you when you say this resentment gives your life joy.

"Yeap. Without my asshole I'd probably blow up and die."

HA!

Crid, I'd pick your battles.....starting to pile up on you darlin....

Right... what happened doesn't matter.

Course it does, but of the two of us you are the only one with a track record for ignoring facts and engaging in deluional selective memory
