Vyvanse commercials.  Jeezus.

...and this^

...and the batshit, homeless, toothless lady who continues to harass me every time I go to the store.   

please be kind to the old lady, she happens to be my wife. She only asks people for money because, well… Somebody in this family has to make some money.

Yep, I think most of them end up in spider webs in my back yard.     

except for fireflies, they can burn their way through spiderwebs. I think. I'm pretty sure. But I have heard that butterflies elude spiderwebs because they are too slippery.

Oh, I have to warn you. Those podcasts are very very thorough but also very annoying. Especially the ones where one or both hosts  use the word "like" every other word. But these guys are huge fans, know the material well and cover it from every possible angle. You'll have to make sure you get the podcast that is complete and not spoiler free.

How did Carl get out of his cell again? I thought your key was guarding him.

correction: "your key"  = Yorky
f'n Siri!

There are podcasts that cover both the HBO series and the books. You can search your podcast aggregator for game of thrones (books only). I have "seen" all the episodes and read all the books so far. And I understood and empathized with that post you made about dropping out after book 3. I managed to hang in there but I had your same misgivings. :-)   I never posted here about game of thrones because there wasn't a spoiler free zone.

How did Carl get out of his cell again? I thought your key was guarding him.

The take away here is don't think you can skip your meds and get away with it.

Gracias!

MV: what is the band at the end of the Podcasts, the bumper music? It reminds me of a band called SPIRIT or a band called SRC from the early 70s.

Sometimes forest fires are started by dying fireflies when they fall to the ground.

I could tell you similar personal anecdotes. I once kicked a bus above the back tire as it went by and my foot hurt for two days.[of course I thought I was in the right. Filled with righteous indignation. quote author=zeebo link=topic=6606.msg290163#msg290163 date=1409089872]
Once in SF I saw a bike messenger take on a city bus because he got too close to him.  Guy friggin went crazy and climbs up on the bus and starts trying to rip the windshield wipers off, screaming obscenities, freaking everyone out.  I remember thinking it's like Bambi being upset Godzilla didn't give him wide enough berth on a footpath.

Lame borderline soft-core porn "love" scenes in movies/tv.  I find them dorky and fake.  Especially I hate those ones where they rip each others clothes off and throw each other up against a wall and mash their faces together like friggin over-caffeinated Klingons.

sometimes when I'm hi I do that to the mailman.

Point taken. But if the tyrant was a bicyclist it would be a different result them the one Zeebo mandates.:-)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. But I have overtime been on both sides of this issue. I drove a car, drove a motorcycle, and also drove a bicycle up to 80 or 100 miles per day. (not all at the same time) So I know both sides of the issue. The bicyclists  hate car drivers just as much as the reverse. Drivers intimidate bicyclists, run them off the road, bicyclists run stop signs, ignore Road laws, etc. etc. but I wasn't saying all that, I was just saying that a 55 mph speed limit doesn't mean everyone has to go 55 mph. And the law in most states I know of is that cars and bicyclists must share the road. This issue is every bit as polarized is the Democrat/Republican flamewars.

Well, those creative types are eccentric. I saw Pastorius play live a few times and I was in heaven. By the way, I'm talking about the band "weather report".

Bicyclists, specifically organized groups that take over miner state highways. Even more specifically bicyclists that congregate on those highways doing 20mph in a 55mph zone.

55 mph is the maximum speed allowed, not the minimum. You can't expect bicyclists to peddle at 55 mph. The law is you must learn to share the road with your bretheren.;-)

I think I've seen some of those sites.  I didn't realize they were promoting beauty treatments.  I may have to go back and do some more research. 

And I would be wary of any claims about the superiority of products that don't contain Essence of Ernest.  The importance of being Ernest cannot be understated.

I hope so, because I'd hate to believe a sober person would ever say some of the things he does around here.

it's good that he has friends like us.

Unfortunately, every thread soon turns to a morass of political OCD polarized Playmore. It's already hard to remember that this thread began with the issue of That unstable reverend.

And I won't stand for people saying my friend Yorkey is full of shit; I'm pretty sure there is some liquor in there too.;-)

Which, I was surprised to learn, if you search the Internet, is quite en vogue nowadays. That special facial ingredient that is.

The warning (Before shows like THE STRAIN), "VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED".
I don't know if I don't dare watch it until I see it. And by then it's too late. So when was I supposed to use my discretion?

I am watching "outlander". Oddly compelling. Will see how it develops.

Ernest was married to Ethel Mirman for a little while. It's always fun to try to imagine those two on their honeymoon.

Okay, stop it! Stop this right now! This is silly.git that camera crew outta here.

He was an interesting man. A gentleman. RIP

Actually I think I'd just dust off the white polyester leisure suit and wear that instead.

It's not Labour Day yet, after all.

yeah, but that's the suit with the skid marks in the back!

How about if all thread creation had to be preapproved by the GabCast panel.:-)

On a slightly different tack; I have a friend (yes really), and he has a hot date. He wants's to impress her, and so is going to wear his linen suit. He does however have a problem; How does he get the urine stains out of the crotch area? I've tried he's tried everything to no avail.


Secondly, please stop serving fish heads as a main course at your dinner parties, no-one liked them.

easy solution, soak the entire suit in urine. Then the crotch area won't be especially noticeable.
