OK how about all over me like white on rice? That way I can imply that sex with me would be colored by a bad case of white boy's disease.

Has Pico been trained to "sick-em"?

Pico and ME 02-21-2012 10:38 PM

Pico would fight to the death for me, which would only take 2 seconds.

Brutal review of yesterday's local Guns n' Roses concert.

Quote:

Guns N’ Roses stepped onto the Fillmore Silver Spring stage a few ticks after midnight on Friday morning and didn’t pack it up until 3:04 a.m.

It wasn’t a rock concert. It was a hostage situation.

Where did these guys even find the gall to call themselves Guns N’ Roses? Led by the band’s only original member, frontman Axl Rose, this unfocused eight-man crew pranced and preened with the enthusiasm and talent of a tribute band. For three torturous hours, the guys sucked the life force from some of the most anthemic rock songs ever written — “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” “Paradise City” and “November Rain” among them.

To call it a train wreck wouldn’t be right. Train wrecks are fast and violent. This was like being stuck in gridlock traffic behind a garbage truck in August.

Griff 02-25-2012 01:52 PM

Feeling good about my Axl Rose play in the death pool.

ZenGum 02-25-2012 05:56 PM

Rolling Stones
Guns n Roses
INXS

have all become their own cover bands / tribute shows.

Sad, but even washed up rock stars have to earn a living somehow, I guess.

Aliantha 02-25-2012 06:34 PM

There'd be less of a need for them to still do shows when they're old and past it if they didn't snort, guzzle and shoot up all their profits in their hey day. (or is that hay day? hmmm...interesting)

ZenGum 02-25-2012 07:02 PM

True, but then, what would be the point of being a rock star?

Aliantha 02-25-2012 07:03 PM

The music?

monster 03-02-2012 01:01 PM

After weeks of searching i just gave up on finding a missing check, opened email to ask the person to resend, looked down, and there it was peeking out of an envelope in a pile of empty envelopes.

It always works this way, problem is sometimes that makes me want to give up too early.

infinite monkey 03-02-2012 03:29 PM

They keep coming over the address system telling us where the tornado WARNINGS are, now in the northern part of this county. I have to drive through the northern part of this county to get to my county.

But they're telling us there is no need to take shelter.

What am I going to do? Go home, of course. If there's a tornado it will just have to decide to take me or not, because that's just the way it is.

They should just send us home a half hour early though.

Oh dude. INXS was never anything without Michael. :(

ZenGum 03-02-2012 04:58 PM

Yeah, they've tried two or three replacement front men. They're only kidding themselves. :headshake It's over, guys, let it go.

infinite monkey 03-02-2012 05:21 PM

I saw them in concert in 1991. I had to google when they were where I saw them. Funny, there's an INXS gigography.

http://denniscdtrader.tripod.com/id182.html

I really liked that band. My soon to be husband (got married in July, this concert was in February) so did not want to go. It wasn't his cup of tea. He was 36. So I went with a male friend from work. We had a blast, laughed our asses off. Soon-to-be was all like "sure, if S wants to take you, have at it." He was cool like that. :)

Wow, that was so long ago!

I don't mind. I understand that musically maybe they're not the best band ever. Their music gives me a kick though. (See what I did there?) Makes me want to dance! :jig:

Funny, I mentioned this to him when I talked to him last night and he was all like "I didn't know you saw them" and I'm like "uh DUH...you were the one who told me to go" and he didn't remember. Ha!

INXS isn't the only Australian band I've loved...The Little River Band will always have a special place in my heart. It's maybe considered silly, but I love that stuff!

And rock-wise, who can deny AC/DC?

sexobon 03-04-2012 06:29 AM

Griff raises the bar by skipping over being put on report and going right to being taken off a Christmas card list!

I do love AC DC, find guilty pleasure in Midnight Oil, and need more input in the Wolfmother department.

O proud left foot, that ventures quick within
Then soon upon a backward journey lithe
Anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke,
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from Heaven's yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.

The Hoke, the poke -- banish now thy doubt
Verily, I say, 'tis what it's all about

Never take advice from those who are not currently successful n that which you wish to achieve ...unless they mad so much money they retired from it.

Don't:
take job hunting advice from the unemployed
Budgeting advice from the debt-ridden spendthrifts
Mental health advice from the nutters

This one I disagree with.

I've been in the same job for 20 years. I may seem like a good guy to get advice from, but I haven't actually landed a job in over 20 years. There would be few people worse than me at giving job hunting advice. The best people to get job hunting advice from would be people who change jobs every 2-3 years and have been doing it for a couple decades. They will be able to tell you how to play the game.

I missed the punchline which was:

ah well. I can't even get humor right.

as long as they're currently employed ;) I do agree. i was really being less than wholly serious, but failed at that too.

Don't take humor advice from me, either......

you can look it up. I think I used a link I found on facebook. You can change it if you want to. That's what you need to do IM (I just typed your old name there -for the umpteenth time....)-tell it you're a 22 year-old supermodel running an animal sanctuary and see what it comes up with.

Google yourself and see what personal information comes up.

Blueflare 03-14-2012 07:33 AM

Fortunately no info comes up, apart from my Facebook profile which has next to nothing on it. But Google still has an opinion of me as a user based on what I search, what websites I go on, etc. I research a lot of really random things for the stories I write, which probably confuses it.

monster 03-14-2012 07:38 AM

Who google thinks you are

Apparently Google now thinks I'm an 18-24 year old female. That's quite a change.

Pamela, are you jealous of my transformation? :lol:

monster 03-14-2012 07:41 AM

....but why aren't I seeing ads full of hunky men? Explains all those shoe ads that have been popping up, though. Why would I want two pairs of shoes a month for $40? Are they insane?

.....Maybe I should go check my daughter's search history.... :lol:

infinite monkey 03-14-2012 08:32 AM

What's weird...yesterday I was emailing from my google account, kidding about becoming a dog pooper scooper. Next to the inbox list there is a "learn more about..." section and it had listed "pooper scooper."

Now how in the heck does google know about that? They even snake your gmail? That's unsettling to me.

What happens if I have email sex? "Learn more about...heaving bosom." "Learn more about...turgid pillar of manhood."

Yeesh.

limey 03-14-2012 09:03 AM

I long ago gave up the idea that anything do online is ever confidential in any way ....

Blueflare 03-14-2012 09:33 AM

That's weird, Google apparently doesn't think I'm anything in particular. Unless I am missing something on that page that supposedly tells you who Google thinks you are.
Anyway, I don't really imagine that stuff online is truly private either. To be honest you'd have to be crazy to think that it is.

infinite monkey 03-14-2012 09:40 AM

Once I made a joke on gmail. Next thing I knew...the whole world was laughing!

Sundae 03-14-2012 10:44 AM

Just dropping in to say hi.
I've come to my brother's to check on a delivery, so I'm in and out. Got to get back home to change the cats over.

Tried to hook up the router yesterday. Grrrrr. I feel like some silly '40s housewife who is confused by these thingamijigs called plugs and cables... The instructions make it look so easy, but of course what I have in my house looks nothing like the illustrations. So I have had to ask Stevo to come round at the weekend to sort it out. Which is embarrassing.

The 'rents are home tomorrow midnight and I will be back online sometime before Monday.

Try not to elect Santorum in my absence, mmm-kay?

Umm ... that was always Gmail's business plan. Scan your emails for keywords and provide targeted advertising, bill the advertisers. How else does a free email service get so damn rich?
Google and facebook work on the same principle.
The recent change is that they are now cross-referencing the information from google, gmail, youtube etc to build a fuller picture of you, for better targeting of ads.

Nothing on line is private. Sometimes a bit hard for Joe Public to see, but the companies that run these services have you in their databases.

If you don't want to share it with the world, don't post it online anywhere.

I imagine that you're a 22-year-old model (but just a regular model, with no super powers), with a great personality and your own sanctuary full of edible animals.

Please don't destroy my fantasy.
