We all laughed about it....IT WAS FUNNY!

I'm not resentful...the bad tone if coming from being pissed at TM for being such an asshat.

The entire exchange clearly reads as "nerve hit". So well done to TM, as that was likely the response he was looking for.

On the minus side, I have no idea from this exchange whether or not sunny is hot. I do however have a sense that she is defensive about whether or not she is The Best Girlfriend In The Entire World.

Bravo...the fact that I told TM he was pissing me off should have been the dead give away that a nerve was hit.

I think he's just jealous no one is throwing a party for him and his alcoholic friends.

Of course she's hot. Paigow's the chubby anorexic one. Or did I not get last week's lesson right?

THe fact that you read all that fucking nagging into a 2 second exchange is just incredible.
Are you really this stupid? I find it incredible that you can't see that I know exactly how to get under your skin, you colossal asspop.

ASS
The fact that you find the need to explain yourself like this shows me that I wasn't that far off the mark. I don't really give a fuck if he worked in the bakery that made the cake. But it's funny to watch you explain to me that him picking up his own cake for his own party is "the deal of the century." (Well, that, and you used the term "labo" you dim-wit.)

I heard the guy from the glue factory was an even bigger hit the following week (that is, only until the man who makes the dog food came in).

When I saw her post, I imagined that you were going to point out that she actually managed to find someone as dumb as her. Your response was much more original.

Last week's person was the father of a girl in the class. He's a secret service agent. So, not only did he show them his gun, the baton thing that shoots out of a handle, the handcuffs, the microphone-up-the-sleeve, and a bunch of other gadgets, but he gave them all presidential trading cards, stickers, little "Big Apple - Secret Service" badges (my son wore his all weekend) and a signed photo of GWB. But that's not all!!! He led the kids downstairs, where there was a bevy of secret service agents guarding the presidential limousine. The street had been closed off, and all the kids got to go through the limousine.

I mean, come on!! How am I supposed to follow that?!?

I work in a bank, so my only hope is to hand out $100 bills and tell them how we play Liar's Poker all day long. And then take them to Hawaii on a private jet that I have waiting on the street outside.
Pick up a few of the kid's journals and edit the shit out of the entries. Do it at the teacher's desk, and make sarcastic comments on the style. Pick the kids everyone makes fun of anyway, and the others will think it's great fun.

Is this a belated response to a past "nerve hit"?

The Failures of Retail
 
Wasn't so long ago that the only way to obtain, say, a Cubs baseball cap was to wander within 200 yards of Wrigley. These days, you're supposed to be able to wander into a goddamned Foot Locker in Bangor, Maine and buy an autographed copy of Sammy Sosa's jock, if that happens to be your interest. Or so goes the theory.

Somewhat improbably, I now have reason to buy a Detroit Tigers cap. I have read elsewhere that they're apparently an honest-to-God major league baseball team. Notwithstanding this membership and status, it appears that Los Angeles retailers share this assessment of probability, and have chosen not to stock such merchandise, though for some reason I can buy all the Twins, Cardinals, and Reds caps I want. Fuckers.

Hank, I'm tempted to blame you for this. Clearly, something needs to be done to improve the Tigers' fortunes. Can't you pull a Costanza and get a job with Ilitch or something?

The worst was the Deadhead I dated who showed up at my apartment tripping and bored me to tears with a god-awful analysis of his most favorite thing in the world, the song "Tangled Up In Blue". I only dated him b/c he had long hair and was like really young, but he seemed more interested in tripping than pooty store shopping so out he went. Too bad. Those long locks (all one length; no mullets for me) and sandles and youthful pout made him look like a young Jesus which made me hot.

As for anti-depressants, I'd rather have the world around me on anti-depressants, if they're going to be on any drug. Nothing worse than depressed people. They're more annoying than trippers, slobbering all over you with their prooblems. And people on MAO inhibiters seem to drive better and also stay out of my face which is all I give a crap about. I don't mind cokeheads, but only in a dance club because they are more fun.
Hey, different strokes, etc... I dig the freaks. But your point does resonate with me. A few years back, some jackass kept telling me how he met Jim Morrison in a redwood forest in California. Idiot actually believed Morrison was alive. I so desperately wanted to throw him in the bay. Tortured me for four hours.

Can you pretend like the kids in class are traders and that they're being visisted by their brokers? I hear the kids like strippers and blow.

I heard of a class visitor who decided the children would be riveted by a flow-chart and presentation of his company's quality control policy. If only I could've followed that guy.
