I’ve neber liked Tom Delonge —at all, for any reason— but now I find myself feeling bad about it because he is obviously clinicall and dangerously insane. Have you seen any interviews with this fucking clown lately? Comedy gold. And I used to think Charles Manson was a crackpot when going on the record.
For those that are curious, she and the baby are doing well. Thanks for the kind reps and responses. It means a lot.
He was on the Rogan podcast. I’m not sure he’s as nuts as seems to be. Sounds like some crazy conspiracy site pays him 6 figures to be their spokesman and all he has to do is promote their bullshit. Either that or he found a way to monetize his crazy.
Today one of my interviews wrote what I consider to be the single best answer I have ever seen to the "what are your weaknesses" question on our formal application. She answered, simply, "bacon."
y'all it doesn't even feel like we did Christmas. Mom had her mastectomy on the 12th. We got here the 19th. My SIL nearly shat her baby out on the 20th and had to have an emergency c-section*. Baby spent until...day before yesterday? I think? In the NICU. APGAR of 2 when he was born and hoooo buddy. Mom went to drs today to have drains removed and confirm she was cancer free and they said "No, we've been trying to call you**, we need to start radiation immediately because it's spread", and they were trying to get her to drive the 2 hours to Plano daily for treatment and my poor mother was like "go fuck yourself figure something else out" then she went to the plastics dude who told her she has to keep the drains so she's pissed about that. Add in the other stuff associated with living out of suitcases and y'all I just can't wait to get back to Washington and smoke a huge. fat. large. wonderful. joint on my front porch in the cold rain. *SIL had membrane rupture while in the bathtub and was already at the hospital. She told the nurses she needed to poop, and they're like "Cool, go do that". SIL pushed and the umbilical prolapsed. That was bad. Baby was deprived of oxygen for several minutes. **Mom and dad's landline is sketchy as fuck since they're out in the country, and their cell phones are obviously not getting great reception. I was like...tell them to fucking EMAIL YOU to call them IMMEDIATELY. Goddamn.
My wife is an asshole. On a dare from her, just submitted my application to Naked and Afraid. Of course she had to review it all and make sure I wasn't exaggerating... uhm, cue to Mandi, I don't need to exaggerate.
As a Canadian, I have to say I'm pretty fucking disappointed with my fellow countrymen: https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/new-y...on-parliament-hill-may-be-cancelled-1.3738751
Jan 1 is supposed to be a have a high in the low 20s and lows in the teens. And it's supposed to rain, or I guess snow. The entire city is freaking the fuck out and the grocery store is a mad house of people stocking up... for like 1-2 days max of freezing temperatures. People are idiots. I will avoid the roads at all costs that day because there will certainly be shitheads who still decide to go 90 on a raised highway. These allergies can go right off and fuck themselves though.
Some people never learn. Trick is to just keep a month's worth of calories on hand for emergencies, and to rotate your stock every once in awhile. Takes maybe a day of driving around to get ahold of all the emergency supplies you might need, and then you're pretty much done until something bad happens.
Did you guys hear the good news? The CFL gets to hire Johnny Football! Suck it, Jerry Jones! Imagine having a superstar celebrity up here who was almost good enough to play for the Cleveland Browns. Little ol’ us! It will be just like Doug Flutie back, only this time he’ll have the added bonus of Aspergers and a criminal record.
Over at Wired.com, came across an interesting story about that rather infamous (on here) flight that flew through Irma.
Gee... who would have guessed? Oh... wait... anyone with even a small bit of subject matter experience... go figure. Otherwise smart people spouting off about shit they don't know anything about is probably my biggest pet peeve from 2017.
It's not just smart people. It's EVERYONE. People think that because they are simply aware that a topic exists, means they are automatically a subject matter expert and are entitled to spout their newfound "expertise" like it's some form of bible. People are becoming either so entitled that they think there's no possible way they can be wrong, or they are so blind to their actual capabilities and limits that they genuinely believe they are always right. THAT's my biggest pet peeve of 2017. That, and "safe spaces."
There were 2 security guards shot and killed at a casino this morning. That's 15 murders in an 8 day period. What the fuck is going on in this town?
