Thinking about joining a service organization like the Masons, Kiwanis, Rotary, etc. Anyone here a member? Everything Ive read online looks like they're pretty similar but I think the culture is critical.
I joined the Masons after college since we learned that our fraternity rituals are very similar to Freemasonry. I haven't been active in the last year or so and I want to get back into it. It's good organization and if you're in a large city, you have access to network with high profile people you wouldn't otherwise have. Some take it way more seriously than others, but what you get out of it is all about what you're willing to put into it. It's worth it for the networking if nothing else.
What is your goal? To wear silly hats and uniforms? Then those are the clubs for you. You'd probably have more fun joining your local German Club. Those guys know how to party. My dad and both grandfathers were Freemasons. They basically got together to get away from the house and kids. In fact I've still got their stupid hats around here somewhere. The only networking they did was with other retired people. I know this because my dad was perpetually out of work architect between 1968 and 1990. He got the gig to design a Scottish Rite building, but did it for free because he and his father were also terrible, terrible businessmen. That's about all the gigs his networking got him. Oh, yeah, one of his Mason buddies did our sprinkler system cheap in 1986. The Freemason lodge is now a parking lot. strong presence these guys have now. Just join The Stonecutters. I'd post the video but Fox removed every fucking 20 year old clip of a 30 second song because fair use protecting intellectual property.
Every once in a while I start to think, 'hey, this is a pretty enlightened group.' We really aren't meeting the second prerequisite of the banner slogan 'depravity.' Then someone posts a picture of a clay Kermit fisting a clay Miss Piggy. Seriously, there's no way to unsee that shit. Jesus. Happy Mother's Day, indeed.
Just realized I'd posted the low-res versions... updated with the higher-res, just because it's Mother's Day.
Oh my God. Since I'm on my phone I had no idea what I was even looking at at first. So so glad I figured it out. So we have a mini celebrity coming in tomorrow. The pharmacist on duty is so giddy about it I asked him if he'd go out on a date with him if he asked. He said he would at least be confused. It's not like it's Rob Thomas. Really.
Oh, and here I thought the potential slight blurriness was my natural defense mechanism kicking in. Thank God there's high res versions. I can rest easy now.
Rob Thomas would be utterly uninteresting unless it was Always Sunny Rob Thomas. Watch your ass, New Fish. He'll beat you with a shoe.
So the girlfriend decided to get blackout drunk and pass out on the floor of our daughters bathroom last night. Being that it's mothers day, I decided she deserved breakfast in bed. Which consisted of Gatorade, Advil and early morning humiliation as I shamed her with the picture I happened to capture of her in her impromptu "bed" last night. Needless to say, she was not as amused as I was by the situation...
"You see honey, It's mommy's day and on her special day she's allowed to throw a whiskey bottle at daddy."
You take that back!!! I don't even know what to say. He wrote 3 AM about his mom, who had cancer. CANCER, Crown. We can't be friends anymore.
What specifically are you looking for? I'm a member and can answer any questions you like to the best of my ability.
Actually, it was like; "You see honey, this is what you have to look forward to in life due to the unfortunate circumstance of being a product of your mommy and daddy. I'm also pretty sure this is exactly how your mommy felt the day after you were made!"
I actually don't have anything against the guy. I've met him, he's a small, very talkative guy but easy to like. I remember him being really funny. However, Matchbox 20 sucks. Nobody gets a vote on that.
I'm not a violent man. House centipedes and I have an understanding. They are pretty docile. They don't bite. They are pretty harmless in the grand scheme. This morning upon entering the shower I saw one of these guys just chillin. Now, I was a bit upset as I enjoy my showers without bugs staring at me, but figured no harm no foul. The instant I turned the water on, that fucker went sex nuts and retard strong. He made a move towards me and I splashed him with water to knock him off the tile and into the tub. He did not like that and started to swim towards me. Those fuckers apparently can swim. I did the only thing I could think of. I pissed on him. I pissed on him with such force I think I broke his neck. He got turned over and I pissed him right down the drain to his doom. Ever since then, I've felt the need to find what else I can piss to death. If you are an insect or small woodland creature...beware. I'm coming for you. This is how my day has shaped up today.
The horrible thing about house centipedes are the way they move. They look like the hover across the floor like a ghost, with their giant gangly legs paddling them through the air. Four of the attacked Manhattan in The Avengers.
I'm just glad I never came across one'a those mofuckers in Hawaii. They are huge and their poisonous bite feels like a gunshot wound. No thanks! I would also like to kindly thank the public for being terrible to their moms and families. Without you, I would not have made any money this mother's day at the sports bar in which I work.
Jesus, this morning was a fucking nightmare. We went out for breakfast with my folks (for any family-oriented day, my family is AM and hers is PM) and went to a restaurant we've been to many times with them before. It wasnt packed, we waited TWO HOURS for our food. The place is under new management, evidently by the Queen Of All Retards. I didn't even get coffee half an hour after sitting down. It was Mother's Day, we already have reservations. Can't go anywhere else. It sucked. I couldn't help but notice on the way that McDonalds was packed . Hmm.
