courtie, it's all part of the process, dear--I don't love her any less! I actually love her MORE because she's got our freaking kid in her belly!
you better believe her ass is back in the gym two weeks after having the baby, though. I will not stand for this shit when she's not pregnant.
please know that I'm kidding, but knowing her that's how she'll be anyway (and I am ok with that!), and if not I'm ok with that too
According to your last two posts, your wife is hideous and your child is a freak. How do you think you can best apologize to your family?
trust me my wife is still way hot, all is good in the world
EDIT: and yeah, I do sound like a dick up there, that wasn't my intention. her body has changed *a little* so far but we're pregnant. as long as she's happy/healthy/etc it doesn't matter.
screenshots + facebook = kate's soon to be on the market!

This was my semi serious attitude too when the wife was pregnant. I made a bunch of jokes but I knew she would never let herself go with her drive and attitude towards herself. Boy was I wrong. Kids change shit. Neither of us has got within 30 lbs of our pre pregnancy weight. I finally got back to 255 this week from my max of 290 on April 1st this year. Well over 6 years ago, when she got pregnant, I was 235

errrr....wuf.... there's a fat chick instead of your sig, sort it out bruv.
lol at her being fat. She would probably look a wee bit better if she were thinner, but variety is a necessity, and she is within the acceptable range with which to satisfy that variety.
Also, I've seen every gif of hot chicks ever made, and aesthetically acceptable ethnic booty is very difficult to come by. They usually always cater to that stupid spastic booty shaking fetish, not to mention that 98% of cinematography of all things porn related is utter garbage
And lol at not questioning heterosexuality after lamenting the shape of her hips. Big lol at that one. On top of that, no real man has ever questioned a pretty face with pigtails
Just sayin bro, you mights be gay. Youse might wanna look into that, could be you find dick be all that and a bag of ketchup chips
brosiah, just because you're a good broseph here's a mega hot pasty fake redhead all for you, lindsay broham

I like her attitude.
moustache man knows wassup
it doesn't make sense how she can be called fat, chubby or remotely overweight
she's just buxom with massive hips
and buxom = win
haha the sad face wasn't so much about your sounding like a dick but more for the fact that I really really am dreading being pregnant (and delivering). All you fuckers on this forum are so lucky you don't have to face that prospect. I really want to have a couple kids but it's gonna suck so much.
mmmm thick white chicks...
Pat3082 or whatever is name is currently has 17/20 threads in the MTT forum. New record?
Funny convo from overheardinnewyork.com:
Middle aged lawyer #1, reading newspaper: Childhood obesity is an epidemic? America is the only country where poor people are fat.
Middle aged lawyer #2: Cheap food is fattening.
Middle aged lawyer #1: Maybe so, but if they're fat, they can't be starving, right? Nobody ever starved to death while they were fat.
Middle aged lawyer #2: The reason they're fat is that they can't afford to eat healthy. Your comment is shockingly racist, hateful and ignorant.
Middle aged lawyer #1: Oh, now being fat is a race issue? Ever been to Disney World? They have white people there who could cause an eclipse.
Middle aged lawyer #2: Our agricultural policy encourages the poor to eat cheap, unhealthy calories. A Big Mac might make you full, but it also makes you fat!
Middle aged lawyer #1: McDonald's sells salads too, ya know. Who's forcing the poor to order Big Macs? Or to eat twelve of them?
Middle aged lawyer #2: If you believe you're correct, why don't you try living on a restricted budget and food stamps?
Middle aged lawyer #1: If my budget was so restricted, I might stop at the first Big Mac instead of ordering a dozen. And nice way to divert from the issue, which is that America's poor are obviously not starving.
Female court reporter: That's right. It's the middle class that's starving because they're not getting government checks and food stamps.
Middle aged lawyer #2, with air of condescension, shaking head: How compassionate of you.
Middle aged lawyer #1: I'm very compassionate. I'm just not an enabler. I'm making a simple logical argument: fat people are not starving.
Middle aged lawyer #2, shaking head: Mere words do you no justice.
(the door to the room opens, and in comes the witness, an obese black teenager holding a McDonald's bag. The smell of french fries fills the room).
Middle aged lawyer #1: Were you listening outside the door?
Confused teen: No.
So our bathroom ceiling is covered in mould, so I was cleaning that off today and the water must've dripped down the walls. The light's currently on, if you flick the switch to off the light stays on. If you then flick the switch back to on again you get a nice electric shock.
Do not touch it again, and call electrician ASAP
Electricity is one of the last things in the whole wide world you wanna mess with if you don't know what you're doing
I've put insulation tape over the whole switch thing (largely 'cause I don't trust my flatmates not to decide to play with it standing barefoot in a puddle of water) and I'm just gonna wait it out and see if letting it dry or whatever has an effect, before calling an electrician.
No, you need to get an expert opinion. At least find a message board with people who understand the related professions, and ask for input. You could easily have something else going that you don't see, the electroshock could easily not be from the water you thought you got on it, and if it is, it could easily be a trigger that causes other problems.
It's one thing to not get a professional opinion about things that don't really matter, but an entirely different thing when it comes to something that can kill you. Especially with electroshock. If you experience electroshock in a situation where you're not supposed to, you're in a VERY serious situation. Even if that particular scenario is benign, you don't know this without a professional opinion.
Risk/reward. The probability may be low that this is a real issue, but the risk of being wrong is ridiculously, ridiculously high
ALWAYS be EXTREMELY cautious when dealing with shit like this. Electricity, fire, guns, cars even. DO NOT FUCK WITH THIS SHIT. If you think I'm wrong, go on /b/ and ask them to show you all the gifs of tards burning their faces off because they fucked with this incredibly dangerous stuff. Just because it's in your home doesn't mean the wrong move won't kill you yesterday
I promise I'm not underestimating it :) As I said, when I first discovered it I covered the shit out of it with insulation tape to prevent any further accidents, and that's just gonna have to do until the world comes to life tomorrow between 9am and 5pm at which point I'll try and get something done about it. The randomness thread seemed like a place to tell the anecdote as a fun story, but believe me, growing up with a physicist for a father I don't take electricity lightly, and am annoyed with myself for not thinking about it as I splashed water round the place.
I appreciate the concern though.
Dont die kiwi. If you died, it would be hard to find a replacement poster with an avatar that had such a beautiful banana colored pole like in yours :'(
How do you not recognize your own mother?
In case you're slow, I just called your mother a pole
In case you're even slower, I like your mama jokes
In case you're annoyed, just rest assured that your mother is a terrible lay. All she did was complain about how much I was hurting her
You also turned off the breaker/pulled the fuse, yes? If not, it's a good idea in future and won't result in you burning your face off...quite the opposite, in fact.
Wufwugy's melodrama encourages me to take this opportunity to promote learning how to fucking be a man, in particular a self-sustained man. Learn about electricity and plumbing, so much so that you can do the simple shit yourself and know how to not kill yourself. If you have the room and are given the chance, learn how to do simple maintenance on your car or other small engines. Learn how to fish and grow food. CHOP SOME GODDAMN WOOD!
Some of you here are metrosexual babies who pay too much for people with real skills to help you do simple shit. Beyond the face value of knowing how to perform these tasks, you'll also learn analytical and problem solving skills that will exercise your brain and spill over into other important shit.
Thanks. Now back to your regularly scheduled lives.
LOL @ dying from a loose wire in a switch. I'm with BennyLaRue. Grow some fucking balls and learn to play with wires.
Oh yeah...and get to the circuit breaker.
I agree with benny, but only to an extent. If you dont currently posses skills in electricity.. then Id either call an electrician or find an electrical forum and post detailed pictures as I go and follow their advice. Sure you might fix it so that it doesnt shock you, but even scarier than getting electrocuted is electrical fires. These are far more deadly because they spread through the walls first, and by the time smoke alarms go off, or you wake up the fire is raging and may only have seconds to think fast and gtfo.
I'm not advising that Kiwi attempt to fix it himself. I'm suggesting he learn a bit about electricity, wires, and how they work to avoid this problem in the future.
I worked with electricians and plumbers before and that is how I learned. However, I don't know how one without that resource would go about learning. Meh...
i dont believe in electricity.
Naw, my advice is perfect. 100% fact that you do not want to screw around with surprise electricity, and should only continue after you understand what you're doing.
The whole learning how to do-it-yourself thing is an entirely different issue I never addressed. Simply knowing how to turn off the circuit breaker is about 5x ahead of the pack
A thing about me, though, is that safety first is an issue I will never ever budge on. It's something my father taught me, and the fact that I've seen every video ever caught of people ignoring safety and abysmally ruining their lives....
Suck on that!Quote:

YOU ALL AREN'T MY REAL DAD :(
fucking caps filter
tHIS IS HOW THE REAL PROS DO CAPS
Also for the record, I'm probably more metro-fag than all of you, but given my dad's a (safety paranoid) physicist and I'm a nerd who enjoyed playing with electronics a lot as a kid, I think I already have the basic electrical knowledge you guys feel I should learn. Especially with advice such as from that douche bufu, "learn enough about wires so you know how to make this not happen again" after I explained that it happened from me absent-mindedly splashing water into circuitry.
re: circuit breakers, this is quite an old house and they're split up not by room but rather by category ("lighting", "heating", etc.) and since we've got exams at the moment one of my flatmates really didn't want to be without light at all last night, so's he could get his nerd-panic-study on. Now that it's daylight, the breaker's off.
I don't know much about plumbing, though.
Still playing this game, eh Kiwi? :P

Moldova is awesome.
I saw a Moldovan Airlines plane once. It was actually a truck but it seems no one told them.
omg strasburg
impressive but the Pirates are awful and have scored the 2nd least runs this season so far at just over 3/game
Wait, did the Pirates do something in baseball?
And they also took Bryce Harper. Switching him from C to OF is ridic imo, but hey, whatever. The nationals will become a force to be reckoned with in the coming years imo.

You crazy FTR'ers! This is OP...you might remember me from such threads as "Drunk Thread" or my epic plot to kill off my fellow remaining werewolf in attempt to save myself.
I haven't been playing much poker since a lot of my time (and money) is consumed with engagement stuff, work, and being to lazy. I forgot my password and the email I had linked to FTR so I just made a new one. Hope thats cool.

I've no time for anybody coming back on here saying "remember me guys, I'm sooooo epic".
Must have had the worst wake-up ever. At around 7:30 I feel this heavy stingy pain in my left hand thumb. In my drowsy sleepy state it registered at first like some kind of cramp. So I turn a bit, then get out of bed, twisting my hand to make it go away. But it won't. The pain is abnormal and keeps up so finally I wake up fully, realizing something weird is going on. And then I see the culprit. A wasp has fled back to my window (which was slightly opened). But not just a regular wasp. A huge monstrosity that you would expect to see in Jurassic Park, not in real life!
Not the actual thing, but to give you an idea:
http://jknighten.com/Henro/images/4-...andarinia1.jpg
Normally I'm not even scared of wasps at all, while other people usually run when one is close, I stay pretty cool. I grab a towel, standard tool for slapping dead such a thing. But this thing is so huge it actually looks more like you need to kill an animal instead of an insect! When it starts moving again I instinctively flee out to the hall. I wasn't wearing much so I snatch up some clothes and put them on to cover as much of my skin as I can while complaining about it to some people that were coming by. I go back in, still pretty much blinded by pain, but couldn't find it. Really looks like it went back out even though there wasn't much opening to do so (or come in for that matter).
Call the doctor, he says to take painkillers and that just deinfecting should suffice but to come over at 9 anyway. I end up not going because the painkillers knock me out and I wake up way later.
I later talk about it with some guy. A few days ago I had actually seen one of these huge wasps before, and he told me he had too and had been totally freaked out about them. Must be some kind of nest in the building idk. Good thing it didn't swell much, in the afternoon the pain started to become tolerable and looks I've regained use of my left hand too now.
I actually feel a little sick just looking at the picture

edit lol at fleeing into the hall. I've been there.
Wait, where do you live?
Good read you got on me. I omitted it from the story but that was my new weapon when I went back inside haha. (although without the fire it might just piss it off more)
Btw it wasn't an Asian Hornet, but a normal looking wasp of that size as the one in the picture (prolly a bit smaller). I have my camera recharged if any of em ever come back again I'm snapping a pic of it. Alive, and dead.

Wuf,
you once had (a year ago maybe?) a link from a thread on here to an economics lecture by a woman who was looking at the typical family's household expenditure both now and in the 60's (I think) and looking at how it had changed with the addittion of the second parent working.
Any idea what I'm on about? If so, can you give me the link again, or a link to the link.
Cheers

You might wanna read this as well. It's a good synopsis of the essential fact of why US economy is the way it is, but not really into detail as to why that fact exists
Robert Reich (Why the Main Street Economy Isn't Getting Any Better)
Things are bad, and they have been for decades. Much of the bad has been behind the scenes shoving all the chips into the hands of the de facto Oligarchy, it's been getting worse as it cascades, and it has become abundantly clear that the powers that be have so much control that they're stopping at simply saving Wall Street and fuck everybody else
I see two different ways out of the problem, both are long term.
1) Our Lost Half-Century begins to look more like a Lost Century and the top 1% of earners begin to feel the hit so hard that they even stop lobbying hard against beneficial middle class policy (this would be a pretty abysmal way to go given that median labor would have to get crushed in order for the royalty to feel it),
2) Our long-lasting economic woes breeds a new kind of voter much like what happened in the Depression. Baby Boomers and other generations who lived through relatively luscious economic times pissed away the gifts from their parents, and we now have to fix it. The sad thing is that us fixing it is not the easiest thing to imagine given that we're making every mistake at every turn, pumped by the greatest propaganda machines the world has known. It will take a whole lot of shit for our society to create its own Edward Murrow and FDR
just threw into my crockpot the following:
cut up potatoes
chopped onions
chopped celery
baby carrots
6 smelly chicken boneless skinless chicken thighs
salt, pepper, soy sauce
my awful cooking aside, the chicken breats were dated 6/13 and it is currently now 6/13. they smelled kind of bad, not terribly rotten, but certainly not appetizing either. normally i'd just throw them away but i decided to be adventerous, unless somebody convinces me that it's a really bad idea.
they are going to cook on low for 8-10 hours in the crock pot.
will i die/get food poisoning?
Personally, it would completely depend on how much of a nose-full I can handle. If it smells funny but I can fill a lung without recoiling, it's gotta be safe after you apply enough heat.
Aside from the question as to if the meat is spoiled, you shouldn't cook meat the entire time in a slowcooker on low. It's not enough heat to kill the bacteria normally killed through the cooking process, chicken especially. If it's a simple hi/lo setting like most are, cook it on high for a couple of hours, then turn it to low for the rest of the cooking time. You're trying to get the meat to a temp above 140F.
WTF, guy was promoting awesome stuff!
think about these words. young (awesome), horny (yes!), nude (fuck yes!), cheerleaders (YOU CAN CHEER FOR MY DICK!), getting sex (WOOOOOOOOT!?).
Even on the low setting a slow cooker gets above 140. But you are right that you should do the initial cooking on high, but thats because you want to shorten the amount of time that the food is in the temperature danger zone (40-140°F) Not because you are worried that the food wont reach a temp over 140.
I always use meat on the best before date or a day after. I guess I should stop doing that.
