Blah blah blah, my Birthday is Monday. I am old. Fuck it. Focus: What is your best birthday memory? And, what is your worst?
I'm thinking clowns have gotten out of hand. Several schools in Ohio have closed today due to the threat of clowns. "Reading schools are closed Friday after a woman reported being attacked by a male dressed as a clown. Mount Notre Dame High School is also closed Friday." "Reading police said Kim Youngblood was smoking a cigarette on her porch at South Terrace Apartments when the clown appeared. The male grabbed Youngblood by the throat and reportedly stated, "I should just kill you now." According to Youngblood, the clown then said "that some students and teachers would wish they were never born at the Jr. and Sr. High School today."
Mine is Wednesday! The cool kids get early October birthdays, clearly. I say we all go for drinks. As for the focus, I have historically always had a pretty good time on the birthday. Sadly, in 2014 my mom passed on 10/3, making a party on 10/5 seem sort of no thanks, maybe in a year or two, let's write the obit. So it's a bit of a mixed bag for me still. I do still like the all go for drinks idea, though.
Well, looks like I'll be drinking early this afternoon... Seems like today is the day that my main development machine decided to have the main hard drive shit the bed... and I'm now in the process of doing a complete re-install of everything. It is SOO much click and wait... and wait some more... then click and wait... Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Weeeeee!
You are correct, and I will join you for drinks. w00t! I have the same birthday as Rutherford B. Hayes, although, unlike shegirl, I don't share the same birth year with him.
Hey guys....I have a confession to make; I've never seen Blazing Saddles. I mean I've seen parts of it and I know the general story, but I've never seen it from beginning to end. This changes tonight with the Blu-Ray Mel Brooks Collection and Glorious Alcohol.
Mine is Wednesday. It's the birthday of Kate Winslet and Alexander Keith. Also, Tecumseh was killed on October 5th. That's all I know. My best birthday was my 19th. Because it was the first time I could drink legally so I went to the Rideout and got fucking shitfaced like I never have in my life. You see, this half city block-sized dive of a nightclub had a fifty cent shot bar. Granted they were girlie-shots, but when you and your friends order 100 of them on the cheap plus $6 hugs of beer, you got get ripped on your high school allowance at that place. I remember waking up at the bottom of the stairs outside my bedroom next morning. My jeans were completely caked in topsoil why I don't remember, my mother thumping me in the skull with the central vac to wake me up. Awesome night.
Today, a guy at work said that his wife doesn't want their kids to go trick-or-treating this Halloween because there may be rogue clowns about. Really. He told her not to worry, that he'd just take his Glock, but she still isn't convinced.
I know exactly what you mean. My family scheduled my father's funeral on my birthday. I was sitting there as the planning was going on and they kept saying the date and all I could think was "Is it not registering with any of you why that date may not be appropriate?" Apparently not.
There's a lot of hysteria with this clown shit. Our son told my wife that tonight at his school dance a bunch of kids started flipping out, crying, and soon because they thought they saw a clown. Turns out it was some lady there to pick up her kid. He said everyone was running towards the window where the alleged clown was. He on the other hand was looking for a safe exit in case shit went down. Raised that one right, we did.
Focus (worst): 22nd birthday, a few friends thought it'd be funny to spike my drink with cialis. Thankfully it didn't last longer than a few hours, but it was difficult to hide when we went out.
There's no way this clown crap isn't a publicity stunt for a movie or video game or something. The cops, and especially mainstream media, Id think would be way more interested in it if there was actually something nefarious about it.

I'm not hugely familiar with country music nor is it a popular music with me but last weekend I played this song for a newlywed couple's first dance. I personally had never heard it before, but it's as good as a song gets:
