The person below me

[Elorrum]

We had something I called Bunny Slaw... living in a place where no lettuce was available at the market. Fresh vegetables we could always get were cabbage, and carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers. So is grated carrot salad a match for yes? The strict family version come down from grandma Schoonover was with raisins and mayonaise.

tpbm remembers fresh vegetables being derisively called "rabbit food" by those who maybe had heart attacks by 50.

[Eric]

That would be my Uncle who would only eat ham if it was carbonized on the grill & only eat steak if it was dripping blood (he is was on the non-Jew side). Of course this is the same man who thought my being gay explained why I was a punk in the early 80's, and thought the only good thing about that was that at least I wouldn't date any more girls with, as he stated, "permanent tans"... Real charmer.


tpbm also had an Uncle who's birth name was really Texas.

[theCryptofishist]

No. I'm the one who was birthed in Texas.
TPBM can explain how a "snake-like creature" can wear shoes.

[Eric]

No, I wonder why this: "Whenever one young male member of the family, Taso Sithole (16) entered each of the huts and as soon as he came out, that hut would unexpectedly go up in smoke" isn't a bit obvious...


tpbm rolls their eyes a lot when they see things like this

[theCryptofishist]

I actually have some trouble getting over seeing the name as S(h)ithole...
TPBM never accidentally sees profanity.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Oh, never. Never ever. Honest.

TPBM still hasn't changed their calendar from April to May. Dude, it's nearly June!

[theCryptofishist]

Ha! I did it! a week or so ago...
TPBM hasn't changed the bedsheets all month, but won't tell us.

[jella]

::shivers::

TPBM just went and changed theirs "again"

[theCryptofishist]

Too late. I gotta get some sleep.
TPBM had a flourishing career as a folksinger before her/his voice changed.

[Eric]

My singing is worse than my dancing. I will sing however, just because I enjoy both it & inflicting pain on others


tpbm is thinking "waffles"

[catinthefunnyhat]

I wasn't, until you brought it up.

TPBM recently woke up disoriented and took a moment to realize that s/he was in her/his own bed. How peculiar.

[theCryptofishist]

Not really. Depending on who you are.
TPBM prefers stp to quaker.

[Elorrum]

ah the racer's edge. I remember Andy Granatelli, for no good reason attired in a trench coat in stp commercials.

tpbm used to play at the commercial activity, trying to hold onto a screwdriver dipped in oil.

[Eric]

I am going to let that one pass, as it took my mind right to the gutter


tpbm is working on Saturday...

[Straightveg]

Technically not any more now that I'm home, but it was 9 hours of hell while I was there. My service adviser and teammate have some personality conflicts, so they got into it again today. We were slammed and my adviser was upset that our customers weren't getting out on time and my teammate didn't really give a shit. I think we did around 29 oil changes and 3 or four tire rotations total today. Not fun.

TPBM had/will have fun today/night.

[theCryptofishist]

I had a nice nap...
TPBM prefers totes from Sterlite to those from Rubbermaid.

[ranger magnum]

Dont have a rubber maid, but i have a plaster garden gnome...

Tpbm is getting ready for bed

[catinthefunnyhat]

Yeah, if by "getting ready for" you mean "almost ready to accept the inevitability of."

TPBM has been enjoying a nice, cold drink.

[AntiM]

Nice hot coffee actually.

TPBM has an Action Packer.

[Box Burner]

OK. I give up. What the hell is an action packer? The first thought that came to me when I saw this was kind of gross. (at least to me it was)


TPBM bought a "gourmet" frozen pizza for dinner last night and thinks the only thing gourmet about it was the price.

[Sail Man]

IDK if I'd call Digiorno's gourmet pizza, and I did get it on sale, and with a coupon.

tpdm has also been to Old Chicago's in Boulder, and, as an added bonus, has their name on the hall of foam!

[catinthefunnyhat]

No... but a hall of foam sounds kinda cool.

TPBM has a room in their home with padded walls. Can I come over for a dance party?

[Straightveg]

Sure, as long as you clear it with the nice men in white coats first.
TPBM wears padded clothing on a regular basis. (protective clothing like sports pads don't count)

[theCryptofishist]

No. Sounds hot.
TPBM is saving up to hire Simon to reupholster Bob.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Nah, I like Bob crusty and frayed.
TPBM has a real couch they like that way.

[theCryptofishist]

Meh.
TPBM does the wash to rinse of the dishes left to right.

[catinthefunnyhat]

Is there any other way?

TPBM spent Saturday night thinking about why so many things go to the right.

[burner von braun]

Actually, I'm thinking about that as I type this and.. HEY! ..stop that cursor! ..you come back here!

TPBM has read chinese

[theCryptofishist]

No, I haven't even had red chinese...
TPBM remembers Rula Lenska.

[catinthefunnyhat]

No. She died before I was born.
TPBM is in the awkward position of having lent something valuable to a friend whom he/she suspects of having lost or broken it, and doesn't know how to ask.
