Overnight Open Thread - Thanksgiving Eve Edition (Mætenloch)
Good evening morons! I hope all of you are ready for Turkey Day and visiting family. And just to get to get you in the mood for it, here's a little family-time video. Good times, good times.

I call bullshit on Levi's mom. If she didn't have the drugs to sell, she'd probabaly be out selling her ass.
Just like she raised her son to do.

Yes. My fucking hockey game got shut off in the middle of overtime. Fuck you DishTV. MSG moved the blacked out basketball game to MSGplus, but for some reason my hockey game got turned off because of the blackout for the basketball game.
oh yeah... and I'm seeing my mother tomorrow.

We're going to the Bay Area. Most of my relatives live up there, but we're only visiting my mom's sister and her family. I'm torn about what to do on Friday. My dad and my sis are going into SF to do tourist stuff and my mom and my aunt are going to be learning how to make Chinese tamales. I want to do that, but I don't want to be left alone with them, lol.

Since I probably shan't be posting much over the next few days -- I'll be busy conducting my miserable excuse for a personal life -- I wanted to wish my fellow Morons a very happy Thanksgiving. May God bless you and keep you safe over the holidays. May your hobo-hunting be fruitful; may your Vicodin-withdrawal be mellow. May your drunken rampages remain forever a shameful secret.

Infamous wedding? I was in an infamous wedding? LOL, so much happened this year.
It's my eldest cousin's younger brother. He's not really creepy in an evil way. He's a 30 year old man with the mentality of a 14 year old. He's not a bad person, but he's needy and always wants someone to give him attention. When I was 10 he and his mom stayed with us because my mom had appendicitis, and he followed me EVERYWHERE. He's a good 6 years older than I am and I was more mature at 10 than he was.

I don't really like it either--at least not with other chicks. I find it really annyoing actually. But I do like to shop when I don't have to find something specific--that's when I find something good. Online shopping is always good-no annoying crowds or sales people.

It's a given that everyone is going to over-eat tomorrow and be all bloated and shit. Well, when the guilt sets in and you start thinking about how to burn those 10,000 extra calories you consumed, think about calories burned during sex before you start consider jogging or some boring workout. Here are some tidbits:
OrgasmReal 27 calories
Faked 160 calories
Orgasmic Intensity Scale
You begin moaning in Italian 60 calories
Locations for those of you travelingrear of a Honda Civic 38 calories
On an airliner:
aisle seat 24 calories
middle seat 42 calories
window seat 30 calories
in the lavatory 100

Even in Upstate NY, where there are NO Hispanics whatsoever, the signs are also in Spanish. Target has the signs in Spanish here in LA, but didn't in NY. I don't understand why Lowe's thinks it has to be bilingual EVERYWHERE. Even somewhere in OH, the Lowe's signs were all in Spanish.

I hate Macy's. They used to be pretty nice, but the last few years they've really slid downhill.
I agree so much. Every since they bought, or merged with, May D&F. May ruined every store they ever touched, just destroyed Foley's down here. They suck. The only Macy's worth half a shit is in Manhattan, and Bloomingdale's kicks it's ass.

You mean apart from every bad economic idea from past two centuries proudly on display, a foreign policy that consists of bowing and empty sloganeering, a domestic policy that consists solely of empty sloganeering and declared communists and Mao admirers in important government positions?

See the faked orgasms aren't a result of us men, it's because women are very, very smart. They realize they can burn almost 6 times the amount of calories than just a regular one.

Did someone say "shopping"?
Black Friday. This is one of the biggest shopping days of the year. It kicks off the holiday shopping season. Most stores will be offering unbelievable discounts. It's a great way to save a bundle on your Christmas gifts. The stores will be crowded. And you'll be shopping for hours. So, you'll want to plan your shopping expedition. First, Moronettes, find your most comfortable shoes. Then, grab some snacks and bottled water.
Next, you're ready to start on your list of items to buy. You'll also want to figure out what stores to visit. Here's a gift and some homework while your Turkey is cooking..
Here, here, here and here all post Black Friday circulars. They've been leaked by company insiders.
So, each site will have different ads. You'll want to visit each site when you're making your Christmas list.
Have fun out there! Black Friday! ...*yeah..I'm looking at you WtR!*

Posted by: Rodent Liberation Front at November 25, 2009 11:14 PM (dQdrY)
Here beginneth the chronicle of those memorable circumstances of the year 1620, as recorded by Nathaniel Morton, keeper of the records of Plymouth Colony, based on the account of William Bradford, sometime governor thereof:
So they left that goodly and pleasant city of Leyden, which had been their resting-place for above eleven years, but they knew that they were pilgrims and strangers here below, and looked not much on these things, but lifted up their eyes to Heaven, their dearest country, where God hath prepared for them a city (Heb. XI, 16), and therein quieted their spirits.
When they came to Delfs-Haven they found the ship and all things ready, and such of their friends as could not come with them followed after them, and sundry came from Amsterdam to see them shipt, and to take their leaves of them. One night was spent with little sleep with the most, but with friendly entertainment and Christian discourse, and other real expressions of true Christian love.
View Full Image
The next day they went on board, and their friends with them, where truly doleful was the sight of that sad and mournful parting, to hear what sighs and sobs and prayers did sound amongst them; what tears did gush from every eye, and pithy speeches pierced each other's heart, that sundry of the Dutch strangers that stood on the Key as spectators could not refrain from tears. But the tide (which stays for no man) calling them away, that were thus loath to depart, their Reverend Pastor, falling down on his knees, and they all with him, with watery cheeks commended them with the most fervent prayers unto the Lord and His blessing; and then with mutual embraces and many tears they took their leaves one of another, which proved to be the last leave to many of them.
Being now passed the vast ocean, and a sea of troubles before them in expectations, they had now no friends to welcome them, no inns to entertain or refresh them, no houses, or much less towns, to repair unto to seek for succour; and for the season it was winter, and they that know the winters of the country know them to be sharp and violent, subject to cruel and fierce storms, dangerous to travel to known places, much more to search unknown coasts.
Besides, what could they see but a hideous and desolate wilderness, full of wilde beasts and wilde men? and what multitudes of them there were, they then knew not: for which way soever they turned their eyes (save upward to Heaven) they could have but little solace or content in respect of any outward object; for summer being ended, all things stand in appearance with a weatherbeaten face, and the whole country, full of woods and thickets, represented a wild and savage hew.
If they looked behind them, there was a mighty ocean which they had passed, and was now as a main bar or gulph to separate them from all the civil parts of the world.

So, besides the Internet, you can check multiple email accounts? I don't like being away from my email too long. It sounds like it's worth the money. Is your brand considered the best?

atc, you may want to wait until the playoffs. I'm not a huge fan (Bruins are also my fave, followed by the Blackhawks since they have 3 Manitobans), but I always try to catch a few games then.

So it's either sit at home staring at your family, or pack 'em up and drive to the MALL! Where you can drag your unhappy kids through crowded stores full of other people dragging their unhappy kids around. You can stand in line for two metric hours at the Food Court and then eat your lunch standing up while you wait for someone to leave a table. You can try to find some god-damned thing to give your various loved ones for Christmas, which is pretty hard because like most adults they have more than they need already and never hesitate to satisfy any whim even if it's the middle of fucking December.
OR: you can pull the Nintendo set out of the closet and just give the damned thing to the kids a month early, leave some cold cuts and bread out for them, and go spend the day after Thanksgiving as it SHOULD be spent: at your favorite saloon, hoping nobody minds when you "forget" it's illegal and light up a smoke, playing Keno, and listening to old bores griping to each other and realizing with a start that they must have been in high school just a couple of years before you were. By the time you get home, your kids and spouse are so frantic with grief and worry they're actually GLAD to see you.

Oh I hate random noises in the house. And considering I have the top floor of a 100+ year old house, there are always noises that I'm convinced are Freddy coming to get me.
Yup, you can check multiple email accounts, run Office, play video, play music, that type of stuff. Frankly, you can do everything but game on one.
Acer and Asus were first to market and have the main market share. The new Toshibas are nice too. I'm generally an HP loyalist due to always getting incredible customer service, but HP's netbooks are overpriced and underpowered. The HP netbook at the same price point as mine had a 16gb hard drive. This one has a 160gb drive. No contest.
You're going to give up an optical drive but, really, that's not an issue for a travel computer. I'd recommend going to a store, pounding on keyboards to see which you like, then hitting Amazon, etc. to get the best price. I think Amazon has pretty much the entire stock on sale at the moment.

Well, I came in from walking the dog, and leaned in and buried my face into her fur and motorboated her.
Once she was satisfied that I still love her, I started dropping clothes across the house from the door to my computer desk. I waggled at Elizabeth as I passed her.
I sat down and dug to the second knuckle in my belly button to give it a good cleaning, and then wiped it on the cat. He digs it. And he's retarded so he doesn't know any better.
Then I hit refresh and started talking again.
Normal night.

ewwwwww. Dog is not allowed in the cat's room.

Well the heck with that. I say we make the-day-after-Thanksgiving into something more fun. More cool. Something WORTH skipping work for.
From this day forward until the ending of the world, the-day-after-Thanksgiving shall forever be known as FIRECRACKERS IN THE MAILBOX DAY.
If you've never put a firecracker in a mailbox, it's a hoot. Results vary depending on what kind of mailboxes your neighbors have. If they've got a big roadside one, the blast sounds like a shotgun but probably won't do much damage. If they've got a wimpy little nailed-to-the-wall mailbox by the front door, a biggish firecracker can blow off the tacky plastic ornamentation. Door slots are only good if someone's home -- or if they've got a dog you don't particularly like. It's your call as to whether you put the firecracker in before or after the mailman stuffs the box with lovely flammable paper.
You can do one big M-80, or a whole string of those little Chinese suckers. It's all good. And since the cops are all out by the mall directing traffic, it's consequence-free!
(Note: any little asshole comes around my mailbox had better watch it, is all.)
HAPPY FIRECRACKERS-IN-THE-MAILBOX DAY!

My gay guy friend story. There was this guy that I had a total crush on in college. We were in the hot tub together and I ended up sitting on his lap. It was obvious that he was not rising to the occasion as it were and he was sort of embarrassed because everyone else was teasing him. Then he leaned in and whispered in my ear “I’m sorry, I’m gay.” Crush ended. But we remained friends in college though I lost touch with him after college.

Once she was satisfied that I still love her, I started dropping clothes across the house from the door to my computer desk. I waggled at Elizabeth as I passed her.
I sat down and dug to the second knuckle in my belly button to give it a good cleaning, and then wiped it on the cat. He digs it. And he's retarded so he doesn't know any better.
Then I hit refresh and started talking again.

Everclear is 190 proof. When I worked in a lab years ago, we had 200 proof alcohol to do an alcohol series for thin sectioning. The stuff is very expensive and we tried some of it. What a kick! You'd have to be a 19 year-old idiot to do that.

It was 100% absolutely pure ethanol. As you know, the final step of dewatering the remaining 5% water in the alcohol is costly. An ethanol alcohol series is when you thin section a series of samples, put it onto the slide and dry it out by dipping it in a series of more and more pure alcohol, up to the 100% level. This was ages ago, so I don't know if it is still done that way.
With all the crap we were putting in our bodies back then, it barely raised a blip.

>>Just ask any Russian...
Speaking of Vodka... It's kicking my ass!
Some Statistics: A glass of alcohol kills about 1000-2000 brain cells, which we know will not be regenerated. Now, let's look at this problem from a mathematical perspective: A brain has over 3 billion cells, out of which only about 10% are functional. The other 2.7 billion brain cells are extra. Glass of vodka = 1000 brain cells. It means a human can have 2.700.000 glasses without much harm. If every 2.5 glasses = 1 bottle of vodka, than we get 2.700.000/2.5 = 1.080.000 bottles. If one would drink every day for the next 40 years, 40 x 365=14000. Let's divide bottles by the days, 1080000/14000 =~ 77 bottles of vodka every day. Conclusion: All the brain cells would be dead if one* would drink about 10 bottles of vodka for breakfast, 40 bottles for lunch, and 30 for dinner.

It's easy if you fly,
No virgins hump us,
And not a drop of rye,
Imagine all of Islam
without heavenly lays…
Imagine there's no Koran,
It isn’t hardly true,
Nothing to bomb or burn for,
No Ayatollahs too,
Imagine all of Islam
living the rule of law…
Imagine deserts blooming,
I wonder how Jews can,
Using soap and hot water,
Instead of toilet hand,
imagine all of Islam
Sparing the ferengi dogs…
You may say I’m an infidel,
but I’m not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
When the West has really won.

early version of the SEALS in the 50s.
The SEALs developed from the UDT teams developed for D-Day. Basically underwater demolitions engineers who would swim up to the obstacles, attach explosives, and clear paths for the landing craft. Under fire, in 50 degree surf. In other words, balls the size of garages. They were bad mofos, in the 50s they were going ashore in Korea and China before we even defined 'special forces'.

Because the truth is that you can never truly know another person. You just get exposed to deeper and deeper layers of their personality over time and circumstances, but there will always be a core that's unknown to you.
Luckily most people are pretty consistent down through their personality layers so if you can get beneath their surface layer, then you have a roughly good idea of what they're like. Occasionally you meet and get burned by people who are not like this, but on the whole they're relatively rare.

I also got to see where they worked on nuclear submarines, since that’s what he did, machine work for the submarines.

Thanksgiving is finally here! If you’re like me, you’ve been preparing for this day for weeks. But before you dig in to your feast, let’s take a moment to reflect. After all, the holiday is about so much more than food. The past year and a half has been rough on us all. But we still have a lot to be thankful for. We have the friends and family that helped us through the rough times.
We still have our freedom. Let’s not forget the sacrifices our troops have made for us. Nor should we forget those closer to home: the police, firefighters and emergency workers who guard our safety. We should also take some time to remember those who are less fortunate. This year, millions of Americans will turn to food banks. You can help by making a donation to a food bank. Or, volunteer your time.
Your help will make the holiday season a little brighter for others. And that’s what the season is all about! My best to all of you 'roons!

They DIDN'T. Not only did the populous not have any money to vacation, but they had no "approved" vacation sites. They drove fu23ing LADA'S. They ate PUMPERNICKEL if they got bread at all. There were no HOOTERS, no TACO BELLS, no CHILI'S, no, RED LOBSTERS.

I'm a cheap date. Anything material I truly require has already been obtained, so a bit of peace and solitude at the right time is the kind of gift I cherish most.
That's why I like my attic so much, even though working up there is a PITA. Its a place where the phone doesn't intrude, where I can ignore someone banging on the door, etc. Its sort of a Zen meditation with sore muscles and sweat.

Editor, yes I have HD and yes I have a whole slew of HD channels.
For some reason now we even have all the channels on East Coast and West Coast time, so my son can watch Cartoon Network and Disney shows twice. Yippee. /not.

So true. Actually, that's how I got sucked into the Disney Channel shows when I was in NY. Nothing to watch during the day so I flipped to Disney Channel. I rarely watched it at home mostly because I don't have a TV all to myself here.

I mean we’ve had the main network channels in HD for a while, also the premium cable channels. And last spring we started getting channels like KOMO2.

Yeah Editor, my son discovered them sometime last week, all of a sudden we were watching shows that were supposed to be on at 8pm at 5pm and it was confusing the heck out of us. Then I realized he’d somehow gotten it way up in the 600s and wasn’t on the regular channels.

Digital cable has always been a crock IMO. At some point they WILL run into the limitations of Shannon's theorem, then its game over. The inevitable consequence will be implementation of rolling digital brownouts.
When the cable usage became bidirectional, it was game over.

Texas has about five separate accents. Then, when you get way the hell past Van Horn in West Texas, on the way to El Paso, you get no accent at all. It's more like New Mexico.

Shines forth in splendor, your star of destiny!

Crazy, isn't it? It used to take me 45 minutes to get to work on a good day. Normally it was about an hour to an hour and 15. The way home wasn't any better. I avoided the 405 at all costs, except to take it to get on the 101 occasionally on the way home. Sadly the 101 moved faster than the 405. I never took the 405 in the morning. Ever.

Thanks Rum, that’s sweet. It’s my own fault. I was afraid I would be lonely this Thanksgiving since my son is at his Dad’s. Which was a false assumption because I always receive plenty of invitations to other people’s houses. And, it was also a false assumption on my part that I’d even want to be with people this Thanksgiving.
But, the die is cast, the casserole and relish are in the fridge, the turkey is awaiting its butter bath, and the dining room is almost dine-in-able.

One more thing.
OK the FB thing...man, if some (OK many) of my friends see that I'm on the AoS list or another OBVIOUSLY conservative list I'd be reamed (for no good reason but still...that's how they work). My family knows what I think but we just don't talk about it (fkn LIBS, all of 'em I swear!). If you read my profile its OBVIOUS what I think politically but most of my "friends" and even family don't read that much. Like I said, Libs.

I see the "dedicated" 1981 turbo Trans Am. What a dog of a car. My wife's Crown Vic has more HP. 1981 was a bad year for the T/A, a bad year for pony cars, and a bad year for cars in general.
Those were the initial years of heavy government intervention in the design of automobiles and it sure showed. It is
