The "How Was Your Day?" Thread

[dzx9]

Drunk.

[KPL]

Last night I played on my bro's new xbox360, pretty neat.

Had a Calzone filled with chicken and lam shoarma (shawarma), garlic and tomato sauce.
Hmmmm... garlic..

[preventerWIND]

Garlic is manly.

[Mikero]

Lam? You had a Bavarian town in your shawarma?

[Johncarllos]

Redundancy is redundant.

Yes, but I'm not being redundant if I'm rephrasing to help someone's understanding of what I said.

Unless, of course, you're saying JC was being redundant. I knew this was a possibility, but I preferred to have faith in his ability to not be a spamming dork.

Well, you'd said that even though it was Halo, it was still on the big screen, and therefore cooler. I was just expanding on that and saying that ANYTHING on the big screen would be tons better, even if it was Taz the Tasmanian Tiger, it would be almost cool.

Was there a problem with audio/video Lag?

[Mikero]

Taz is a Tasmanian Devil, but it would be cool to have a Tazmanian Tiger in a Looney Tune.

Well, there was two ways I saw that I could've interpreted the post. One was to take it as an argument or a suggestion that I didn't already realize what you had said, and the other was that you were, y'know, just saying.

I didn't see the point in "just saying" something like that on a message board, so I went with the other one.

Was there a problem with audio/video Lag?

Nope.

[Johncarllos]

Mike, I meant "Ty the Tasmanian Tiger" who by all accounts by everyone everywhere, is very annoying.

Sorry 'bout dat.

[Yubi Shines]

Finally scanned in the second weirdest receipt I've ever received.
(The first weirdest receipt was when the 7-11 cashier accidentally charged me two hundred bucks for a slurpee.)



I swear, all I bought was gum and some candy.

[ChaosVortex]

Sure Yub. Sure.

[Mikero]

Drugs drugs drugs drugs drgus durgd asdfyde sddfdryduef dufofsfndfodnjfg...

[Majikn]

Asdfyde sounds like a good chemical to inhale.

[Yubi Shines]

Finally got my minighosts in the mail! Lined up on top of my monitor, I have titled all fourteen: pink, pirate, cyclops, triclops, dead, deader, shifty-eyed, picasso, cracked out, neon, blacklight, modern, yellow fever, and chocolate milk. And a yellow slug magnet. I am pleased.

[Johncarllos]

I had a track meet this morning and had to wake up at 5:45.
I threw Shot Put at the meet and came in second with a throw of 43 feet and 9 inches, or roughly 14 meters.

[Mikero]

Asdfyde sounds like a good chemical to inhale.

It causes sepsis.

[Snare]

I had a raw potato for supper.

[preventerWIND]

I don't really know what plants eat, but if raw taters what you like, then good for you!

I had an awesome day, I sold the scanner/printer that plagued my Christmas money the day before. And bought a used iPod nano (2nd gen) for $90. I was originally going to buy the 2gb one, but at the last minute it broke, so he gave me a 4gb for $90! Total score!

[Someguy]

I had a pretty good day with WIND and some other buddies. Waited about 30 minutes for this guy in a "silver" Dodge Caravan (which turned out to be navy blue) for WIND to sell his printer to the guy. Went to the flea market, saw Boktai 1, but decided not to get it so I could save up and get a Gamecube at EB Games, went to EB Games in a mall, and there was this huge line up to get in, so I just said fluff it. Ate some double stacker thing at Burger King, and came home

[Johncarllos]

Any BK burger with more than one patty sucks, lest it's a whopper.

Today, I had a track meet. It was 7 hours long. I was done my event eithin the first 30 minutes and took 6th at Shot (It was a statewide invitational, so 6th is really good). Spent the rest of the day chatting up gals from other schools.

[Mikero]

Burger King is the worst fast "food" place there is.

It's like eating tires with mustard minus the nice rubber smell.

[Johncarllos]

I just dropped a duece that not only broke the waterline on my toilet, but plugged it completely.

[Jakey]

Were you constipated or something?

[Johncarllos]

Nah, I just said, 'ah, I got some spare time, migh as well poop' and the mother of all ##### decided to come out.
I don't know how I could hold it all without really noticing.

[Majikn]

AAAHHHHH.

Tried to fix a leak at work. Turned a valve the wrong way. The valve disappeared and was replaced with torrents of stinging hot water.

I called for backup three times and decided the radio wasn't working due to waterloggage. So I appeared at the office door and the manager was just staring at me, and I was covered head to toe and #####ing dripping. He told me I looked like I could've been from the movie The Grudge.

We had to cancel one showing of... you guessed it... The Water Horse.

I thought it was my fault until I realized that something someone else did caused the pressure to build up insanely anyway and otherwise it wouldn't have happened.

So... now I got this new uniform shirt that isn't Star Trekkian.

[Vinchenz Rock]

Well, I just got off work. Working seven hours every second day sucks when you're supposed to be on vacation from school. >_>

But anyway, my day isn't bad. I found out that the next three work days I'll be working with the co-worker I work best with. Also, I'll probably receive a $500 paystub next week due to all that of that work.

I just realized Yubi's receipt that she got was from Honest Ed's.

That's one crazy shop I tells ya. >_>

[Johncarllos]

Today, I got home from track, found out my cat has a 1% chance of living through the night, and we find out that we have a helluva methane leak because of old un-capped sew holes that we thought were for drainage.
This unhealthy amount of methane down cellar we now realize has killed two of our cats, almost three now.

Our land lady sucks, she never does a damn thing and we pay $850 a month. We're getting the service of a $200 a month apartment.

[Mikero]

Move.

[Johncarllos]

Immediately actually, the house is going to be inspected on Saturday by DHS and will most likely be condemned. Stupid amount of unsafe/illegal things.

I'm a cat person.

I wanna kill her.

[Mikero]

I like cats too but that's not the worst I've heard recently so... yeah.

Condemned? I don't know. But it will have to be brought up to code for sure.

[Johncarllos]

We're being poisoned Mike.
We have been for a long time.
Though methane doesn't actually KILL you, it just takes oxygen's place in the air, basically, cellar= nonlivable amount of oxygen. Temporarily, sure, you can stay there a few hours, but that coupled with the #####ty walls and just plain ol' OLD ##### has been the root cause of our animal deaths. This #####ing sucks.

[Mikero]

Yes, and they should be able to fix that methane stuff without condemning the whole building.

[Johncarllos]

Well, if an official inspector comes in, there is a ton of stuff wrong, live wires hanging from the cieling, parts of the first floor cieling caving in from the upstairs neighbors, who never take off their shoes, and let their dog crap on their porch, we can't even get our mail any more without walking through #####, so we had a separate box put on our side of the house.
They track all that ##### through the second and third floors. There is no subfloor, the distance between the top of out cieling and the bottom of their floor is no more than 4 inches.

Our house sucks, the other tennants suck, the land lady sucks. The driveway doesn't even get plowed.
My mom is kind of silly for not moving us yet. Yay for college next year.

[Mikero]

Well I don't claim to know ALL the problems with the place, I'm just talking about the methane leak.

[Johncarllos]

Right. It's also entirely possible for us to be put up in a hotel until they fix it, if it needs fixing.

[Mikero]

Yeah but I bet you kind of hope it's condemned so you can move, yeah?

[Johncarllos]

DAMN RIGHT!
She'd also have to pay our vet bills if it can be reasonably deduced that it has killed the animals.

[Jakey]

Ignorant lazy land ladies FTL.

[Mikero]

It sounds worse than my dads old place, and there was a coke dealer living in the downstairs apartment.

[Jakey]

Oh, awesome! What kind? Diet? Cherry?

[Mikero]

Caine.

There was even a jail bait/barely legal preggo girl who hung around growing a crack baby and riding around in a new Mustang smoking like she doesn't give a #####. I was so pissed off.

[Jakey]

I hate that so much.  It's a shame that the stupidest and the most irresponsible people are allowed to have children.

[ChaosVortex]

1/3 of this whole page pisses me off.

YUBI!!!!! I still haven't got mine yet but the guy e-mailed me and said he was sorry for the lateness and so he packed a bunch of extra goodies in with the order and said they'd be delivered by Saturday or Monday so I am very excited and this is a perfect example of a run-on sentence but I don't care because if I put a period mark I'm afraid I might die isn't that funny ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

[Johncarllos]

You should know by now that a simple lol or a smiley can act as punctuation in this day and age

I mean come ON lol

The cat managed to survive the night, which surprised us all.

Also, we have a 2 hour delay today for no reason.

[ASR]

1/3 of this whole page pisses me off.

Ever seen Idiocracy?

[Johncarllos]

Yay, great news.

The methane is only PART of it. Turns out our house is built on OLD landfill and whenever it rains enough to let water in the cellar it carries with it trace amounts of arsenic and asbestos.

Our celler floods with arsenic. Non lethal or even dangerous amounts as in, you'd have to ingest it to have any negative effect.
Animal's feet get wet, they clean, they get arsenic poisoning, coupled with that methane.

We're moving ASAP.

[preventerWIND]

Buy the moon and live there. We'd all be able to see you man! : D

[Johncarllos]

Oh my god, that's the best idea EVER!

Will you shoot me rockets full of food so I can eat?
And chicks to bang?
And oxygen?

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Buy the moon and live there. We'd all be able to see you man! : D

You can't live on the moon it has a face, there's a giant tree on top, and it's really a giant robot!
