Things That Annoy You

How many of those were "Sleeping with the Enemy" type movies? I remember having to suffer through those movies while dating women in the 90s. I thought that was bad, but now the stuff women watch-like the Kardashian's show makes Lifetime look good.

those women you were dating in the 90's monk? well guess what... they're still mostly single and still watching that shit... oh yeah... and I'm still "mushroom stamping" a few of em occasionally.

My wife has to travel from time to time (work) When she arrived in this little town and checked into a hotel after "parking" there was about two inches of snow on the ground so she could not see the park lines... Bitch When she went out the next sunny morning this was the scene. People who park like this on purpose piss me off. I park my truck far away from the crowd and walk a few hundred feet. It's better for everyone that way

The guy should have also put a (wash me) on the tailgate while he was at it.

I liked the ones that were more like the old 1970's made-for-tv suspense movies that had actors like Patty Duke in them. There were a bunch of good ones back in the early to mid '90s. Now they're cheaply made with mostly unknown actors recycling the same plot over and over.  I can honestly say I've never seen an episode of the Kartrashians, Real Housewives of Anywhere, or most "reality shows."

Why is nearly all produce sold by weight, but avocados are always sold individually, $1 each or however much?

Amen to that. I watch reality cooking shows like 'Chopped', though. It's amazing how creative people can get with catfish, wonton wrappers and cotton candy. 

I used to like the made-for-tv scary, haunted movies. I'll still search them out on Netflix. I haven't watched Lifetime in years.

I love Chopped. Cutthroat Kitchen is fun to watch too. I also like the various restaurant re-do shows.  I mainly watch Food Network and the DIY channel.  I love Mike Holmes' shows where he fixes what other contractors messed up. Renovation Realities is fun. It's hilarious to see these regular people tearing their houses apart and not knowing what they are doing.  I've actually learned quite a bit from watching. 

Thank God for YouTube. There are so many of the old movies-of-the-week like Crowhaven Farm, Bad Ronald, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, etc.

I love the Me-TV commercial that, among other things, says you won't find Kardashians or Real Housewifes of Anywhere on Me.

My mom loves that stuff and I have three sisters so somehow I have ended up seeing parts of lots of those Lifetime movies. For a while they were adapting bestselling novels and those movies were pretty good.

Washington's birthday as a holiday. GodDAMN it! Everyone zooming around like they have some important place to be other than in my way. Stop looking at your FUCKING PHONE and pay attention! Overloaded pickup trucks carrying mattresses and furniture all over town.  Other people driving 30 mph LOWER than the posted highway speed limit. Kids walking in the middle of the streets. (We're out of school today, you old fuck, so get your car out of our way.) Cops around every corner, pissed off because they didn't get the day off, passing out tickets like Scientologists handing out pamphlets at the State Fair. Stupid holiday. It's as if the hive-mind mob is thinking, "We didn't get a real Super Bowl, so today is motherfuckin' IT! We deserve a special day! Meet you at fucking Applebees."

Holy Christ, I'm going to have an aneurysm.  A Blue Velvet moment that culminates with a surprise beetle scavenger hunt.

Wait, you're talking about the father of an entire country!  Who's slept just about everywhere, well, in the US at least, er everywhere on the east coast maybe?  And then there's this-

If you log on here, it is easy to sometimes feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of postings.  Since I don't listen to C2C, I rarely log onto any thread having to do with Noory.  I hope Art comes back some day, but I don't have any huge interest in spending too much time either pissing and moaning about the fact that he's gone or speculating as to whether he'll ever return.  The political threads can be engaging and informative but are (IMO) often just full of rancor and such.  Those with whom I agree don't need to convince me; those I disagree with are unlikely to get me into their camp with a link to InfoWars or the Drudge Report and such.  I like the General Discussion threads the most these days, but no longer feel like either waxing fondly over Falkie (or shitting on his grave).

So use your time wisely here, Rachael -- don't get stressed out.  No one expects you to comment on everything going on here.  Pick and choose what interests you.  I'm glad for any female posters we have here!

I've got an extra, slightly used, that you can borrow until summer.

I take responsibility for the timing. I had six different places to hit and I left during the lunch hour. Should have gone much earlier or much later. It was a damned schizoid demolition derby out there. Also, I'm one of those crotchety bastards who believes we should celebrate his birthday on his birth date instead of the applied automatic Monday Three Day Weekend Event formula.  Damn!!!!!

I'm winding down now, listening to the soothing sounds of Glenn Miller and his gang ... reassuring music cues through time from my brief though satisfying previous incarnation (local boy turned war hero, but shot down over the Pacific, etc etc.)

But STILL, this fucking holiday!

[West of the Rockies]

Lonely... I'm Mr. Lonely....

Actually, no, it's just nice to have the female perspective represented here amid all the cock-swinging blather that is bug (or feature?) of this forum.

G-Wash was an absolute stud. Hell, as far I'm concerned, he should have a week in his honor!

Without him, I would probably be seaking with a limey accent. God forbid.
