FWP here.
- I got annoyed at a contact who was taking down my email and asked if my name needed to be in upper or lower case.
- I really like using Google Chrome on my Mac at home... but it won't let me copy or even insert an image in my Nest posts, so I have to open Firefox to do so. ::sniff:: It's a hassle.
Re: FWP here.
Huh?
I don't feel ready for my 5k on Saturday. My time is going to be crap. And I have to go pick up my registration packet the night before and pay $8 for parking.
Also, I was really looking forward to trying a beer my favorite bar had on tap last night and they RAN OUT right before I got there (it was a buffalo trace bourbon barrel aged brown ale).
40/112
i had to wait so long for the workers to finish my full service car wash that i was 2 minutes late picking up my nephews from their private school.
that sounds SO bad when i say it out loud. yeesh.
Sorry, I can see how that would be confusing out of context. See pixy's page to me. To have any hope of changing my siggy, I need to change my SN. The natural choice is "IIOY" but apparently someone is using this already. Motherfcvker.
Maybe saving it for the next AE Day? Or you just have a creepy secret admirer?
<a href="http://www.thenest.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=HTML&utm_campaign=tickers" title="Home DI have this issue with Chrome at work on my non-Mac. Hm.
try lowercase Ls?
I suspect it's completely unrelated to me, although what are the odds of someone randomly choosing "IIOY"?
I'm consider IHOP - I Hate Old People. The only downside is people thinking it's an ode to pancakes. Thoughts?
Zuma Zoom
ILOP = I Loathe Old People (but could also be assumed to mean I Love Old People, sooooo....)
IAOP = I Abhor Old People
IDOP = I Despise Old People
<a href="http://www.thenest.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=HTML&utm_campaign=tickers" title="Home DThat IS odd. I wonder if it's a setting? I tried delving last night and didn't find anything.
mmmmmmm... pancakes
I wonder, could you change it to II0Y? with the o being a zero?
How about OPSB - Old People Suck Balls?
Or how about OPAEMFWHDTDIAF - Old People Are Entitled MotherFcvkers Who Deserve To Die In A Fire?
The lower case Ls is a clever idea. I may have to go with that.
Also clever!
BS - we are on the same wavelength, LOL! I had considered DeathPanelForCutie but I'm not sure I want the word "death" in my SN, KWIM?
alternate suggestion -
IION = It Is Over Now
<a href="http://www.thenest.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=HTML&utm_campaign=tickers" title="Home DYou guys are full of awesome ideas.
I love and am kind to my own parents and grandmother, I swear! I confine my old people hate to this board and discussions with my husband.
DP, sorry for the thread hijack.
Just scrape it off. Cut the tiniest sliver off if you have to. It won't kill you. Promise.
IIOY, your new screen name is DeathPanelforCutie, or DPFC. /gavel
Or Paul Ryan's Girlfriend. But I might throw up every time you post, and you wouldn't do that to me, would you?
Yeah, that's a tough one to let go, and "DPFC" doesn't have the same ring.
Oh I did, and I enjoyed the part I ate. I just don't appreciate paying per ounce for mold. Sam's Club should be awaiting my call.
Care to explain your hatred for old people?
I tried looking for some posts relating to it, but I can't find any.
Just curious.
I posted this yesterday, which should give you some insight. In a nutshell, I'm sitting in a bunker, waiting for the generational war to begin in earnest. I plan to be on the front lines.
I wish the olds had shown more discipline when they were younger and elected political leaders who would deliver responsible stewardship rather than outsized promises that everyone knew was going to drive our economy off a cliff. I also wish they had behaved more responsibly themselves when in positions of power, both political and private, so as not to drive our economy off a cliff. I wish they had shown more discipline with their investments rather than worshipping the almighty Dow and housing market. Finally, I wish they would show some responsibility now for what has gone wrong and vote away some of their own entitlements for the benefit of their grandchildren.
My tire was flat this morning, which made me late for school so I thought I wouldn't be able to stop for my Wednesday morning caramel macchiatto.
I stopped anyway because I'll be damned if I'm starting my day with a flat tire and no flucking coffee.
Yes,I'm smiling...I'm a marathoner!
