Blurt Thread III - Emporium of Unexpected Exclamations & Revelations

The couple from across the street were over for dinner and drinks tonight, and while I'm clearing the table of plates and my wife is pouring more wine, the sing-song of the young lady's phone alerts her that she has received a message.

When she checks it, she is a little shocked by a 'sext' message, sent by her dad to her in error, intended for her mother.

She would not let me send a reply. Probably a good thing.

We all kept the giggling down while she called her mom, and told her to tell dad his package was delivered to the wrong mailbox.
 
It would be kinda funny, until you realize how frightening it is that he is so close to being named the Republican nominee. His behavior is atrocious.

he's a cad

but i think that despite his inexplicable popularity he still has no chance of reaching the white house

Sort of like if Paul LePage had both a brain and money. Inconceivable!
 
LOL

You know, my 12 yr old said yesterday "Trump is so stupid, I bet he'd want Lepage to be his vice president"

Can you imagine!

Has anybody at NASA begun setting up colonization plans for Mars? Because I think there would be no shortage of volunteers at the moment if they did.
 
I saw yesterday, that google searches for "how do I move to Canada" had increased significantly.

All of my grandparents were Canadian so I have my choice of ancestral villages to seek out as refuge. Unfortunately, I think they're all mostly overrun by poorly shorn sheep.

with respect, i believe that's been the case for some days now.

i'll see your tartar sauce and raise you 5 sanddollars.
 
Yep. Frankly, the whole thing from start to finish didn't live up to its reputation. The worst part was fasting for a day and then trying to get a whole gallon down. The taste wasn't too bad, just the volume. Flirty nurses made up for that, though. They must get special training.
 
ha, that was beautiful sir!

so a quick update for the 2 or 3 of you still around that i know:

1) received a rapid sequence of promotions, have finally finished building my team of 4.

2) in the 3 or so years i've been on FB, i have lost only one "friend" on FB. i'm about to lose a second and that's really no great loss cuz she's the worst kind of special snowflake: she thinks she isn't.

3) yeah, i finally stopped signing my posts. when i started doing it a long-assed time ago, it was something i cared about. these days, i just say stuff and don't take it so seriously anymore.

:>

I just wish that the procedure would last longer. The rest you get is the best nap ever. As for the prep, I had to redo my 'scope from early February because the prep didn't actually succeed at flushing out all the leftovers. Three weeks later we did a double prep, so two days of no food and two days of drinking the four liters of vaguely lemon-flavored stuff. Apparently my colon has become very protective of its contents and we're going to have to try again in a few months. I'm not exactly thrilled.

I'm sorry to hear that. You have my sympathy. The lemon powder was pointless. I drank the first glass plain, then added it and couldn't tell the difference. The first glass wasn't bad, the first quart (4 glasses) was manageable, but after that I had to work at it. I took the "split dose" option and gave myself a couple of hours between the first half and the second.

My anesthesiologist is a master of his craft. I woke up a few minutes after having been wheeled into recovery, according to the nurse, and felt like I'd slept for days. My wife and I were on our way as soon as I blew all of the air out. I thought that giving me a photo album as a parting gift was a nice touch.

Good luck, and I hope all goes according to plan next time.
