I think I will speak for the folks on this board from Texas: You do not ever need a reason to make biscuits and gravy. In fact, you have inspired me to do the same.
Huh? Maybe I missed something, it's happened before. Didn't you fall off the roof, get checked out and then break your arm putting your son to bed?
At my last count I've had 5 major concussions. If you ask my wife, that number is a lot higher. Like, really a lot higher. But I'm of the thinking, and I know it's wrong and I'll die with CTE or whatever, but my very hard head still thinks that "ringing you bell" is different than an actual concussion. To answer your question, no, I didn't get checked out after I fell off the roof. Figured I rung my bell. But then I did fall in a much less humorous way and did break my arm and now I gotta see a specialist "to discuss surgery options" the doctor said. In all likelihood, the brain surgery knocking out my balance will one day spell my end. It almost did with the roof today. I rolled when I hit the ground and rolled left and somehow didn't hit my neck on the landscape rocks sticking up if I rolled right. Or just fell a little more to the right. I was *this* close to neck on upward facing rocks. One story fall onto rocks equals snap! One day, and I don't know when, this lack of balance and my desire to live life as usual will leave my wife a widow, my children without a father. So I take precautions when and where I can. I did not take those precautions today, and I almost paid dearly for it. Best I can do, I figure, is live as long as I can for the sake of those whom I live for. And today a mistake almost cost me that. Gotta be more cautious. I mean come on, I wanna at least make it to 30 right?? I'm a year away. Not like I've ever shot myself or anything....
CTE by the age of 40. Squad goals indeed. Better start tattooing the important shit you need to remember on your body Memento-style now. Jokes aside, stop acting like an idiot. You've got fucking kids who might like you around in a non-vegetative state when they're teenagers.
Why hasn't your wife banned you from the roof yet? I suspect the broken arm putting your kid to sleep has something to do with the previous fall off the roof that day. Just a hunch.
This is the most relatable bit of dating stand-up material ever. Went on an amazing first date with a girl on Wed. Lasted 4 hours, didn't even have drinks for the last 2, conversation was just flowing so well. Date ended a bit awkwardly, but hey its a first date, it happens. Texted the next day, things seem like they are good. Texting yesterday, back and forth, she's sharing a bunch of unsolicited details about her day. I ask her if she wants to go out on Thur once I get back from my work trip, with suggested plans. Currently 18 hours later with no response. Listen, I get the message but for fucks sake. Why even bother texting back after the first date if you're doing this shit. I'm gonna be single forever.
A couple miles from home in Idaho a woman crashed her car and blamed it on big foot. I see the world still isn't quite sure where Idaho is, it's labeled as "Midwest".
In all fairness, most of the world and the US doesn't really know where Idaho is. Actually the video is annoying, the link is better https://www.buzzfeed.com/robinedds/...are-very-sorry?utm_term=.riYWnkQy0#.fyZDQO37P Going on this theme I wonder if everyone here can correctly name all 50 states.....The odds of that happening aren't great. I'm guessing there are a few of you who don't know where Deleware, Rhode Island are and the difference between Vermont and New Hampshire Game on, screen shots of your actual scores https://www.sporcle.com/games/Matt/find_the_states Thats a better one, unlike the previous link, if you get it wrong there are no second chances it shows up immediately
OK, what do I win? There was one time a girl dragged me out to do bar trivia, and one of the questions was to name all 5 states that border Nebraska. 6 states actually border Nebraska and one of their "correct" answers was Montana.
More interesting, can you identify all European countries in a map? Same problem as before, but I think thats ok. I'm guessing a few of you might not correctly identify Slovenia on a first or second guess. http://online.seterra.com/en/vgp/3007 Apparently I have no fucking clue where Belarus is.
The former Yugoslavia can be tricky, since every citizen there is now a sovereign nation unto themself, and they still hate each other and everyone else. I wish we had more board members from Kentucky. I'd like to see if they could get all the countries in Anarctica.
So...I haven't seen this movie at all, but someone showed me this clip and I thought it was pretty hilarious:
See it. Gibson can do no wrong behind the camera, it's one of the best war movies of the past 30 years.
Went to a bourbon and rum pairing dinner in January, had a great time and won VIP tickets to this weekends New Orleans Bourbon Fest. Needless to say there were several tastings of various different bourbons, whiskeys, and a few ryes along with a few food and other vendors. There were several seminars and a couple of cigar pairings. The event ended with a awards banquet* and jazz brunch. I managed to restrain myself and not get absolutely shit-faced each night which was a nice way to avoid feeling like ass the next day. It was the inaugural Bourbon Fest in New Orleans, if you can believe that. I definitely want to go back if they have it again next year, but I'm not sure I want to go for the $350 a piece VIP tickets. I could see going on a Saturday for one of the lower tier tickets. All in all, 2 thumbs up, would go again. *There were judges on hand and 7 awards given out but only the rep from Evan Williams was there to accept an award... WTF? It's like they packed up Saturday night and got out.
Ah...the continuing saga of Crazy and his surveillance cameras. If you remember, my roommate has security cameras pointed into the neighbor's front and back yards for no other reason than to be an asshole. The neighbor put up something to block the cameras and Crazy climbed a fucking tree placing his cameras even higher. Once again....just to be an asshole, absolutely no other reason. The neighbor finally retaliated and now has security cameras pointed at our front and back yards. Crazy said to me "He thinks that bothers me? That doesn't bother me at all." It didn't bother him so much that he hung 6-8 huge blue tarps to block the cameras. That don't bother him. These are not the actions of a reasonable, sane person.
