Blessing given. See if you can find another one for me while you're there. Mine's kinda yucky. Mmmmm.... My pulled pork tastes like meat.... Mmmmmmm...
I had the strangest conversation with my ex last night. He apologized for being a shitty boyfriend and then asked me to go to Cancun with him, and he's footing the bill. Of course you can make up to me for being an asshole by taking me on vacation, years after the fact.
If I bought a girl I wasn't related to a plane ticket anywhere, the ONLY reason I would do it is to get laid. Granted, I've never had to resort to such tactics (also I'm too cheap) but there isn't a single other thing I can think of that would cause a heterosexual male to pay for a girl's vacation.
If it's a one-way ticket, I can think of a few females I'd buy plane tickets for. But with a roundtrip ticket, I'd imagine genital slapping would be expected, perhaps even on the flight itself. All being videotaped for my amateur debut "Cockpit".
It's 10 after noon and The Girlfriend just brought me a Coors Light and said "it's time to get started". I love this girl.
Yeah, sex is part of the deal but it's not like we haven't had sex since we broke up. We actually might have had more sex since we broke up than we did when we were dating. But hey, it's his money and he wants to spend it on me... that's just fine. I casually said he could buy me an iPad if he wanted too but that was just a suggestion.
What if it were to use her as a pawn to get you laid with other girls? I once paid for a friends trip from London to Amsterdam to be my date to a swingers party.
Brought a girl home last night who was wearing a Jagermeister trucker hat. I didn't remember her name, and had to introduce her to my roommate to figure it out. Classy.
She might have some competition, my GF just dropped me off at a friend's house so I can get hamerred and play video games all day. All the other guys had to drive themselves... suckers.
You can still do that, but I would recommend doing it via purchasing your own booze at a liquor store. Every time i have this conversation about how stupid tipping is, I just like to point out that if you don't want to tip at a place that expects tips then there is always the alternative of NOT going to the place where tips are expected. Just choose the self-service options.
Tipping isn't mandatory, and whether or not it's appropriate, how much is necessary, etc, has everything to do with the specific circumstances. That whole, "if you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to drink" is a crock of shit. I'll do with my money what I bloody well please. In this case, bartenders have a lot of other fringe benefits besides the possibility of tips. Potential hook-ups a plenty, free booze (likely), skimming (and they do), free food from the kitchen in exchange for freebies, etc. Hell, even on a shitty night they still make more than I do, and I work hours that most Sherpas would find offensive. Now, that isn't to say that bartending is easy. Like every other service job it has its ups and downs, but it certainly isn't the end of the world if some guy tips a single dollar for four drinks. If that's a problem for a drink monkey, and he's pissing and moaning like a sniveling little punk, then he's welcome to venture into other areas of the service sector. After a stint working the hot line, washing dishes, serving coffee, working the counter at KFC, hauling luggage, etc, he'll likely think twice before shooting off his shit cannon. However, if he can pour a pint of Guinness good and proper he'll get a solid tip. Takes skill. Good service and a proper skillset have their rewards. It's all about situation.
In that Spent game from the other thread, I wonder why it didn't give me the option of paying my rent in all of the perks I had received like easy hook-ups aplenty! I know I will never win this argument against the cheap-anti-tipping minded, I have been down this road before, so I will stop right here. You can probably tell who has been in the service industry based on which side of the argument you take.
Well, won't be going to the boat show until tomorrow. Buddy's wife had some construction material fly out of a pick up and onto the hood of her car while driving down the highway, and it smashed out the windshield. He's obviously dealing with that. No injuries or anything to his wife or his 3 kids in the car, other than they're totally freaked out. So, looks like it's a good day to just veg on the couch and watch a season or 2 of That 70's Show. Laura Prepon? Yes please.
This girl picked me up from a LAN party at 3 am once when I was three sheets to the wind drunk. And she stuck around after I had gone to a LAN party. And I'm watching That 70's show now too, on Netflix.
Why has she gone blond these days? She was a great looking redhead and it set her apart from the crowd of blond actresses.
