death tribble Posted May 8, 2016 Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 And while I'm here. I'm getting a smidge tired of my "HR" person contacting me with no notice about getting new employees set up. "They start Monday" It's FRIDAY. When did you think I was going to get this sh.. ready? Enforcer, I feel your pain. I worked in IT and had to deal with people who expected this.

Cancer Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 I asked myself why I still bother.Then told myself that, after all, these days I barely do bother.Still, it's kind of a wonder that I bother at all.Lucius AlexanderThe palindromedary says I shouldn't let it bother me. What a bother! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enforcer84 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Ah, those sad days when you want to be boss like Optimus Prime but begin to worry you're more of a whiny Starscream type "...and then you're Pessimist Prime, 'Autobots....why bother.'"

Hermit Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 What did you do, Ray? I don't live on facebook, which is the only way my family communicates anymore so I didn't find out my sister underwent surgery. *sigh* Painful operation, six week recovery time etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkdguy Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Best wishes and prayers for your sister, Hermit. I hope she has a quick recovery. I just heard an aunt and an uncle are going to have surgery. And they're in their 80s, so I'm pretty worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Likewise. If nothing else, medical tech is advancing by leaps and bounds, so perhaps surgery on octogenarians isn't quite as serious as it used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Thanks, folks. Aunt's surgery was a success (it was brain surgery), so we're cautiously optimistic. Doctors are observing uncle's condition to see if leg improves and thus avoid having to amputate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 The real bloodbath will be Italy vs Spain. I'll say. Will anyone escape with an intact pair of ankles? Will there be so many dive marks on the pitch that they have to give up and rebuild the playing surface from scratch? Stay tuned....

Old Man Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 Is there an Oscar category for sports "fouls"? Should there be separate ones for basketball and soccer? aylwin13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 Italy and Spain are two of the best sides so it is the best tie of the round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylwin13 Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 Is there an Oscar category for sports "fouls"? Should there be separate ones for basketball and soccer? Yes, they're called the 'Floppies'; and there are separate categories for those two sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 Is it the two different sports, or are there height-related categories? Setting a cut at 190 cm of height would do the same thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlord Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 I appreciate courtesy. I like a good "thank you", "please", "your welcome", and "pardon me". Perhaps its the military in me. However, this week I've been bombarded with "overly-polite-at-the-stop-sign-guy". YOU GOT THERE 5 MINUTES AGO, JUST GO, DUDE!!!! JUST GO!!! STOP WAVING ME THRU!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!! JUST F*&KING GO!!!! IT'S BEEN 5 G&DDA&N MINUTES!!!!! YYYEEEAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!! YOU'RE WASTING MY TIME, NOT HELPING MEEEEE!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Do you drive a van with all available slots taken up with heavy rockets, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 I tried that but it's impossible to armor a van sufficiently. My favorite vehicle was a pickup with no weapons, just a honking huge engine and armor a foot thick. My second favorite was a lux with a turreted flame cloud gas streamer, which probably shouldn't be legal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 I used a limo designed for ramming. Loved that game. Still think of it every time I see a motorcycle with a sidecar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
