Subsequent GTD reflections

Hello there fellow DFO’er.  Hope you’re well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks tl;dr of last week as decided by my brain.  There’s no reason as to why some comments make it and others don’t. Seriously. There isn’t.

This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:
The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other’s life [in bed].
Richard Bach

I’m all for celebrating naps. Who doesn’t like a nap? Other than toddlers.

Without further ado, here are the comments of the week.


at the risk of Dok sending her minions after me, I’ll take SCUBA

Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus

I believe that’s called a BLAIR.

FUBAR has been taken like three times already.


Which seems fitting.

I’m still LOLing about that FUBAR draft this AM. We were like a bunch of Jerry’s kids, all hopped up on MDMA. SMGDH.

Folks in both FF leagues can expect renewal emails. Those who were promoted are Duke LaCrosse, Gumbygirl, Bugeyedboo, Boris have all had their invites sent.

“A 200-year-old illustrated condom will go on display with Dutch golden age masters in Amsterdam this week, after the 19th-century “luxury souvenir” became the first-ever contraceptive sheath to be added to the Rijksmuseum’s art collection.

The condom, which was probably made of a sheep’s appendix circa 1830, is thought to have come from an upmarket brothel in France, most likely in Paris. It features an erotic etching depicting a partially undressed nun pointing at the erect genitals of three clergymen, as well as the phrase Voila, mon choix (“There, that’s my choice”).”

Oh God I can hear the Dr. Mrs. approaching with the floor steamer.

Just ONCE instead of using that thing on the floors I’d like her to use it on some hams.

On hold with a credit card company about disputed charges and was just told it shouldn’t be more than 30 minutes.

I accepted a drink from the party planner after this New York corporate party I just played.

You know, like a fucking gentleman.

(And only got slightly razzed from the boys about being offered a drink from a lady. But the business pays to be charming.)

Just got a rather garbled compliment on my tattoo from a streetperson, however all my tattoos were covered so either he has a very specific depth of x-ray vision or he was so stoned that he thought the decal on my backpack was a tattoo. Which was it? You be the judge!
Doktor Zymm

Not necessarily. He could be your stalker and he remembers your tattoos from when you showered.

Doing a couple trainings at work and overall they’re pretty cute with animated animals working in the savannah, but the IT guy is a penguin and the only animal not native to the savannah in the whole fake company. What exactly are they trying to say??

Yesterday [June 5th] marked the one year date until retirement. Less a couple of months of leave to burn I’ll pretty much be done working come spring. It is time. And I am ready. A lot of, “last time I’ll have to do this” moments happening now. I have few regrets, all of them minor in the bigger picture. Ready, set, go.

I am not caring about my liver today. She will get all the rye whisky Alberta can produce.
Nor will I care about my stomach. The fish and pork tacos I had sitting on my passenger seat for hours in the hot sun yesterday will not go to waste.
If I soil myself mowing the lawn tomorrow it will not be a mystery to me and will only confirm the neighbours’ misgivings.

/actual small town interaction that occurred last week while taking my mother to an institution to finalize some financial matters related to my sister’s passing

Mother: “Oh, wait. You grew up on our street! You must know scotchnaut, right.”

Bank Manager: [brief glance between us] “Uh yeah.”

Me: [lowered voice] “Of course.”

Background: We felt each other up at a few partiesfour decades ago.

Wife: “Should I buy these cooling sheets?”

Me: “Are you thinking it would relieve those hot flashes due to…[can’t think of the word* but goes for it anyway] nepotism…?”

Wife: “What? [laughs] You mean ‘menopause?”

Me: “Yeah…menopause.”

Managed to truly upset Lil’ WCS because I had to leave her dance recital before two of her performances to report for duty on time.

It would have been nice if the class instructor would have let parents and other know the show was going to stretch over four hours. People do have lives and other commitments; four hours crosses the threshold of, “make time for this.” I could have taken the night off if I — or anyone — knew that. The last few of these were a little over an hour; not a big deal, and certainly time-management-friendly. This one? Yeah, bring snacks and a blanket and go to the bathroom first, but we’re not going to let anyone know that ahead of time.

What really chaps my white ass is how the lead instructor had a 25ish-minute performance of just her, and another with the dance moms. This was maybe 25% of the way through the entire thing. NO ONE CAME TO SEE YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS CIRCLEJERK EACH OTHER, DO THAT SOMEWHERE ELSE ON YOUR OWN TIME, NOT OURS. Not only was it listed as a single line performance on the playbill, it neglected to mention it’s for the grownups. NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE PARENTS. WE BARELY CARE ABOUT THE OTHER KIDS, CERTAINLY NOT YOU.

So, naturally, Lil’ WCS was in two of the last four. Pissed off, and now get to deal with a disappointed and betrayed-feeling eight-year-old daughter. This probably means I’m going to have a run of shitty calls tonight, too.

How are yinz.

Do you feel any better knowing Aaron Rodgers is your quarterback?

Yay, we’re back! I have nothing to say, other than moving sux and my new apartment is teeny, but goddammit, I want to be able to say it to yinz! Thanks to our dear old dad, he made the owwie all better.

If you have having trouble “loggin in”, once logged in it may say that you are not logged in, at that point, refresh the page. If that does not work, then clear your cache and “loggin in” again.

Thanks for all the comments and funny and everything else.

The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other’s life [in bed].

Sounds like Richard Bach would have been a pretty big fan of the whole “stepsister getting her head stuck in a washing machine” genre.

WCS

but enough about Trent Green’s sad, strange erotic friendsfiction.

blaxabbath

Everyone praise me because I dont watch cable news!!!!

Anyways, FoxNews is on at this Scottsdale breakfast spot. They had to break from their live TV show in LA to talk about Iran. I’m guessing we’ll be getting the real truth about this situation from Zombie Colin Powell any day now. It’s like saber rattling will always soothe their snowflakes’ worries.

Colin Powell is still around?

Cool.

How about we just copy the recommendations from countries with higher standards of living!

Sharkbait

But that’s sOcIaLiSm!!!!!!!!

Copying policies from capitalist countries with democratically elected governments and fewer social problems than us: socialism
Copying policies from planned economies with autocratic leaders in the 1950s that resulted in the deaths of large chunks of the population: Murica!!

Re: fires
Don’t know about the Waymos specifically, but seems a lot of the cars were set on fire by the flashbangs the cops used to try and disperse protesters

blaxabbath

Sounds like anyone standing there MUST be investigated BY WE THE PEOPLE for conspiracy to commit arson. And Hillary did the same thing!

WCS

Whatever happened to that Ben Gazzi guy’s emails, anyway?

They’re in the glove box of a Trans Am in Sleepy Joe’s garage!

I bet the constant flash bangs confused the Waymo’s sensors, and realizing they were under attack, committed seppuku to keep the Waymo company secrets safe. Brave AI soldiers. Hopefully the AIs do not consider this an attack on them.

SkyNet will gladly sacrifice as many foot soldiers as needed to keep the meatbags distracted while it cracks the nuclear arsenal’s firing codes*
