Random Thoughts That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread Go Here
 
Mantracker is an awesome show.

Cosplay is a word I don't know the meaning of.

I love blackbox for windows more than almost anything.

Seeing fat people helps me stay motivated to work-out regularly.

I once cried at the beauty of a full moon rising while driving to work.

I fully expect great success from this thread.

cartman 05-12-2010 08:28 PM

That 50 Chicken McNuggets for $10 wasn't really the good idea to order and eat it seemed to be at the time.

The word 'moist' sounds like what it describes.

I know people have a global greivance with the concept of diet soda. Fine. Not the point here.

The point is -- who the fuck puts 5 grams of sugar (and 6 grams of carbohydrates) into a diet soda? (See diet orange crush)

Interesting, since I know what cosplay is (at least the general concept) but have no clue what "blackbox for windows" is.

Dodgerchick 05-12-2010 09:35 PM

Heroes Season 4 was easily forgettable.

I have a secret crush on Shakira.

These goddamn fruit flies are pissing me off.

Drake 05-12-2010 09:37 PM

I would pay a monthly premium to have someone come around my house once a week and fill the gas tanks in my cars so I wouldn't have to stop at the gas station.

I'd be willing to pay extra if they'd top off the lawn mower.

Drake 05-12-2010 09:39 PM

On campus the other day, I saw a young woman with the most perfect ass I have ever seen in my life. She was talking to her dad on the phone, and it dawned on me for the first time that her dad was probably a guy my age.

It made me feel creepy in a really sexy way.

Completely unrelated, but I saw Bo bo McCalebb playing in the Euroleage final 4 the other night. Dude is quick.

ColtCrazy 05-12-2010 09:58 PM

My neighbor's wife makes a point of constantly posting things on facebook that she does on a daily basis "going to Wal-Mart, playing with the kids". Sure, I could ignore her, but instead I come up with sarcastic posts to counter what she considers important news.

I find facebook morbidly fascinating and highly irritating simultaneously.

larrymcg421 05-12-2010 10:01 PM

I don't care how much science is behind it, but the "your steak should be the size of a deck of cards" has got to be the most ridiculously irritating thing anyone has ever said to me.

Let me rephrase this. I DO burst into tears sometimes when I see this clip. I just watched it and I'm crying for the first time in months.

Do you ever post things back like "I saw you through your back window when you were doing that, you looked nice," or "You took exactly 51 minutes inside Wal-Mart, I know because I was in the parking lot timing you," and things like that in a general creepy way?

Drake 05-12-2010 10:33 PM

I was recently made aware that there are "vast numbers" of women out there who honestly believe that their husbands never think of anyone but them during sex and consider the very notion of it the equivalent of being cheated on.

This blows my mind.

Long story short..

Told a friend I was gonna watch some shows on my DVR then it's lights out...
Convo leads to what the phrase "lights out" means...
He takes it literally, as in the lights will be turned out and subsequently go to sleep..
I told him he's on crack, I've never heard someone take it like that...
To me, and what I thought was the rest of the world, "lights out" indicates I'm gonna knock the eff out, as in i just took a straight right to the jaw from Brock Lesnar

MrBug708 05-12-2010 11:39 PM

I love Sam Adams Summer Ale and wish it was served year round. I hate the Sam Adams Lager though.

Meg Whitman is not attractive

Izulde 05-12-2010 11:39 PM



Another example of cosplay.

And Lights Out can mean both things, depending on context, although I'm most familiar with it as your friend interprets it.

I'm confused by this story. You're saying you told your friend you'll watch some shows, and then "lights out"... you couldn't have meant you're gonna go kick the crap out of someone after watching some shows? So you're saying it's bedtime. But then you say your friend thinks it means bedtime and you think it means kick the crap out of someone?

Negative... perhaps I worded it poorly. We both had the same general idea, that I'm going to sleep. When I say lights out, I mean it as I'm absolutely exhausted and I'm gonna pass out, as in I just got knocked out. He thinks of it as you are literally gonna turn the lights out and fall asleep. Same idea, I know, just different interpretations.

larrymcg421 05-12-2010 11:50 PM

Well I think it's actually the same thing. I've never thought of the "going to sleep" version meaning literally turn the lights off. I always assumed lights out = "nothing going on upstairs". Whether it is because of being knocked out or just generally falling asleep seems irrelevant.

I was driving across the plains of eastern New Mexico back in '92 around 3am. Pink Floyd's "Great Gig in the Sky" was playing, and there was an awesome lightning display from a thunderstorm out in the distance.

There's a muscle in my left leg that is twitching all on it's own. I'm sitting here watching it...completely involuntary. WTF is up with that?

At some point, I realized that I usually picture myself as looking like I did when I was 20, rather than how I actually look just a couple months short of 40.

I always wonder who was the taste bud challenged moron who invented Miracle Whip.

I think this world would be a much more interesting and fun place if the dinosaurs from 65-250 million years ago still roamed the Earth.

Is tired of ESPNs east coast bias, but, still think the commercials are funny.

I want to know what Dodgerchick thinks of her friends new boobs after she cops a feel and let her know that I'm available for a second opinion.

In one of the few cases where this would actually be related to anything, a friend of mine growing up would bring peanut butter and ketchup sandwiches for lunch. His mother was Canadian, so I chalked it up to being a Canadian thing.

(admittedly, the sandwiches weren't half bad)
