Not a dad, but fuck no. FUCK NO. That show is awesome, but I wouldn't watch that much sex, violence, and goddamn incest with family members.
I just came across a windows tablet selling for $60 brand new that matches or beats my primary PC in every regard except for hard drive space. I feel very inadequate right now.
What. The. Fuck. Randy Quaid just uploaded a video of him fucking his wife while she wears a Rupert Murdoch mask, so Randy can fuck Rupert. The dude is kind of mental. http://mirror.ninja/726i http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=80f_1423017544
A friend asked me what to get his girlfriend for Valentine's Day, I guess because I'm old and shit. I told him 'Get her a gift certificate to an abortion clinic. It let's her know that you want to exchange bodily fluids with her, but you don't want that exchange to result in a life altering mistake. Yet.' He didn't seem amused.
Last winter, smack in the middle of the below zero, multiple feet of iced over snow everywhere hell time, I drove down a friend's seat and saw a folding chair crushed under the wheels of a Suburban. I don't know the backstory, but I want to believe someone had just had enough of bullshit dibs. I actively watched the papers for a murder on that street but none was reported.
You could do what one of my neighbors used to do and just stare out his open window as everyone is shoveling and yell "That's my Spot!" anytime anyone goes near what he deemed his spot and his alone. He's dead now. No, none of the neighbors killed him. I did get to watch him carried out on stretcher after he died of a heart attack though. They are not limited to chairs or even when snow is around. I've seen them in spots in the city where people reserve their places every day, no matter the weather. As you can see, it's a touchy subject:
I'm pretty sure reserving your spot with a chair was banned in Philly. Like, there's a law against it. Not like that's going to stop anyone, though. Calling VI to the white courtesy phone...
Me neither. The fuck? Since when is a public street your property to rule over? I'm glad I've never seen that once here. If people want to have the right to put chairs and stuff in front of my house, I'd expect the right to burn all of it in return.
What the hell is this dibs chair business? If its what I think it is, seems like it would cause a lot of bullshit if its a gentleman's agreement and not some sort of law.
The dibs chair for street or other parking is some bullshit that would not stand around here. At my old firm, I used to park in a parking deck that had a breezeway connected to the building. Our offices were right inside the breezeway door of the 2nd floor (3rd floor of parking deck). There was this one guy in another office that tried to put an orange traffic cone out to save his spot. Several times, I moved that stupid thing out of the way and just parked there, but one of my coworkers just drove over the cone one time. It's funny though, dibs chairs are completely allowed at the Masters in Augusta. You can get to where ever you want to sit, place your chair near the green, then walk around most of the day. When you come back, your chair will be untouched and empty.
For all of you getting furious at the dib chairs, let me introduce you to a scenario. This is a winter only, cold as fuck, 3-4 feet of snow scenario. You also live in a large city, not a suburb or small town where everyone has a garage or driveway. No other times are dib chairs remotely allowed. You go to bed one night and then you wake-up and it snowed 2-3 feet. On top of that, you have the snowplows go down the street and add another few free to the snow surrounding your car on the street. Guess what? You have to drive to work. You unfortunately don't have older children or immigrant workers to clear the snow for you. You have to do it. It takes you about an hour and a half to get your car out, moving a shit ton of snow. Clearing the space for your car. Outside continuously in 20 below weather... You're going to feel some ownership for that space. If someone else just came in and took advantage of all your hard work, you'd be pissed. Now you either have to shovel out a new spot or park blocks away from your house. And if it is continually snowing, you'll have to repeat the same process you did this morning, except this time you'll be blocks away from your house. To not go through that shit again, you're getting those two lawn chairs out for sure. Let's not get high and mighty here.
This dibs chair thing is alien to me. I guess parking a little further away and, you know, WALKING is just too much effort for some people. What is this but laziness? Are the words "First Come First Serve" not in their vocabulary? Unless there's a property number on the parking space, who the fuck is anybody to claim it as their own? And since you're leaving something you own in a public parking area, you can't get pissed if somebody takes it or (God willing) smashes it and throws it in the dumpster. "Move your feet, lose your seat." It doesn't matter if you're gone twenty hours or twenty seconds. It's public, so tough fucking shit.
I would have so much fun with a truck just going around picking up free chairs. Hell if there is that many, might want to get a cube van.
I live in Minneapolis... what part of street parking in the winter do you think I don't understand? I still think it's a shitty, selfish thing to do if you are an able bodied person.
This is true at every PGA tournament I have ever been to. We always set up our chairs in a prime gambling space (you need to be able to see tee, approach shot and green to maximize prop betting), and go out to get drunk for the day. We return to the chairs after roughly half of the groups have come through.
