- Despite Anth’s constant negativity, my Christmas spirit is hanging tough like Jordan Knight. Pretty pumped for the next few days.

- Meh managers and whatnot are doing the best they can with Christmas parties. I appreciate the effort.

- Watching dK run game back in the day was a pleasure. Dude’s style of play was somewhat matchup dependent but given the right kind of girl, he could put on a Pete Carill-style clinic.

- Y’all fed up with OADs on our roster maybe starting to get your wish. We may be fading even more as program of choice. Not sure that’s the worst thing.

- Pressure has to be on Mack this weekend. If he can’t beat this shitshow, that’s a pretty heavy 0-3.

- Anyone had the Woodford Masters College Very Fine Old Bourbon? Got lucky on a random Party Source trip.

- Going to enjoy the weather with a nice walk with Blue and the little one here in a couple hours.

Christmas feel good story --> have some friends who run a kids summer camp. They're the type that wake up every day and attempt to save the world one good deed at a time. Not sure why they're friends with me, to be honest.

Live Oak Camp

One of their campers was living in deplorable conditions, so they set up a Flip This House situation. House was swarming in roaches. Plumbing totally disconnected. Absolute filth. Thanks to social media, they were able to land dozens of volunteers to work 5 straights days. Completely emptied the house. Cleaned it top to bottom. Full bathroom and kitchen renovation. New plumbing. New/donated furniture, clothes, dishes, appliances, artwork, christmas trees, etc. Put the family up in a nice hotel. Lots of Christmas presents wrapped up and set under the tree. Took them to a salon/barber and all got they hair did. Large cash donation directly to the family. Arranged all sorts of various social services for the mom. Putting the finishing touches on things and moving them back in shortly.

Good, good people out there. 👏👏👏👏



(sidenote: want to hear more about bbdk waxing at a gd jiffy lube. mind blown.)

I used to work in a multi plex that had a bowling alley and would run back lane on occasion. You could violently murder someone with a chainsaw back there and no one would know because it's so cot damn loud. Scribbling a few disks, getting a polish and pounding out a 20 pump between shifts were not uncommon.

I was also a projectionist (old school 35mm style). I once had a young lady in the booth putting in work while watching another couple put in work in the back row during the movie Troy. That may be my youthful peak.

Working at a place like that was a gold mine for a 16 year old.

Took my older dog to the park today and enjoyed the decent weather before it turns crappy again. Threw a kite I built last Spring in the car and sent it up. There were a bunch of kids horsing around up there. You'd have thought I was a magician when they saw that kite go up. Like they had literally never seen one in their lives, and were fascinated by it.

That makes me kind of melancholy. What kind of childhood doesn't involve flying a GD kite?

Shenanigans aplenty among co-Ed lifeguards when working at the local pool. Everyone who I’ve talked to who did it during the summers says the same, so it must be a thing.

My life is a wreck right now. I mean a f’ing wreck! To the point I can’t even explain.

However I did find time to help someone today to the point they were moved to tears.

My wife’s sister who is the definition of dirty ol stank c*nt, is and has alwaysbeen the worst thing that ever happened to anyone she ever met.

Im talking made the news passed out on dope in a Kohls parking lot with her kids in the car crying and screaming until someone noticed and called the cops, went to prison and is back out on the same crap...........type of person.

Well she met a dude, recovering heroin addict, and they had a baby. The baby is just barely over 1, I think, and the sister is back to being unhinged.

Meanwhile, this fella has been working at a paper company and climbed the ladder to making a solid living for himself. However, he explained to his supervisor he was feeling like he was about to trip up over all her drama and they put him off work for a leave to handle things and held his job.

Last week he went back to work, and knowing he was getting a check soon he gave the sister every dime he had to buy everyone Xmas. Despite only 1/4 of the kids being “his”.

Fast forward to yesterday while I’m stressed to the max as my mom has Covid and is 3 hours away, they decide to file EPOs and drag CPS into their life and now the guy is out everything!

Not to mention our nephew called explaining not only that but the sister has stolen his savings($1200) and that was his first insurance payment money because he just got his license.

So, and maybe this isn’t the lords work but it’s mighty coincidental, since we have a condo completely empty and a “family member” *** out on the street we offered to throw a bed in there to give him a place to sleep and live at least for the holidays. No furniture, nothing really but the guy literally started crying telling me how thankful he was and if we keep being who we are that god is going to give us break eventually and he knows how hard this year has been etc etc.

Just a reminder, no matter what you think you are going through, someone out here is worse off!

It’s never too late to help when you can.

My youth group had a "lock-in" at St. Luke UMC when I was 7th grade"ish"

They didn't segregate the boys and girls when it was time to go to sleep. Just layed a bunch of sleeping bags out on the floor, and turned off the lights."

The youth ministers (a younger couple) called all of our parents into a "closed door meeting" when they came to pick us up the next day, during which they resigned as the youth group leaders, and left the church.

Things DID get out of hand, but finding a bra in the collection plate was probably the final straw.


Also, there is a decent chance that UKO was AT that lock-in, because I believe he was dating the girl who belonged to that bra (around that time) and she brought her boyfriend to said lock-in.

Wayne, it's exactly the type you would think and a few you'd never imagine.

Me and the boys setup a system called "club vator" where a young woman could enter a movie for free if she were to disrobe on the elevator (which we held on projection for such an occasion).

That was pretty wodie till some poor girl passed from a car accident and all I could think of was the tint of her starfish from a few weeks earlier. We shut it down after that.

Kids are damned animals.

Definitely not throwing shade, but I can only imagine the kind of gal who hooks up behind the lanes of a bowling alley.

If you have the chance, in your life, to bang a trash w***e in the back area of a bowling alley and you pass it up. Well, you're not living life to the fullest. That's not a regret I'd like to look back on when the best of life is over, and I'm staring my own mortality in the face. I'd like to be able to look back and say, "I knocked the bottom out of that ***** when I had the opportunity." I can literally smell the Early Times and Camel lights right now.

(Assuming you have the good sense to give a fake name and phone number, and you're good with not going there ever again.)

Speaking of Early Times "Kentucky Whiskey", that reminds me of an illuminating moment, the first time I met my current wife's extended family. They were doing the Dirty Santa gift exchange, and a handle of Early Times was the most coveted gift amongst the male cousins. You'd have thought it was a 30 year old Single Malt...

I worked as the head chef at Arby’s at 16. The closest thing to ***** in that place was the disgusting half cooked roast beef.

My favorite co-worker was the souse chef that worked with me, a guy on work-release with a giant gray beard and neck tattoo that would smoke while making the sandwiches and would dare anyone to say a word to him.

while in college, I worked at a bowling alley doing a little bit of everything. During the women's association tournament one year, I was running stops. While on top of a pin setter on the part you can't see from the front, my foot slipped and I hit my head on a metal part right above an eyebrow. I can still hear a full house full of women screaming when I walked up front with blood streaming down my face and on my clothes. Still have a scar over my eye.

Man, you can't be truthing it in GYERO, even if it is the truth. You have to glamorize the **** out of it.

"I was in the back part of the pin setter where nobody can see you, one legging ole Mary Joe Rotten Crotch, when my one foot that was grounded slipped and I busted my eye on the metal from the pin setter mid stroke, she was screaming louder than I was. Guys at the bar bought me beers and drinks for the night when they noticed me and Rotten Crotch coming out from behind the lanes with blood all down my face, and her shirt was half unbuttoned. I still have the scar of banging the little *****, and her phone number, just in case.'
