You are so cute. And, P.S. Sad but true, those are way better than any choir outfit I ever had. Turquoise sucks ass. I would've killed for one of those dresses.
Oh, Tower. Oh, oh. You are fantastic.

And I think some cool people have turned your lame thread pretty fun.

Completely fantastic. Now, I have to mention the gold shoes? They just seem not quite right. The girl in the middle is like, "oh no, there's going to be a photo of this?" :lol: Awesome pic, Towie. I never had the cajones to put myself out there like that in highschool. Love it.

Those are choir shoes (I don't know why). I had the exact same pair. :shrug:

[skcin]

Towie, you're the one in the pale pink shirt, right? :D

OK. I just laughed out loud for at least a minute. You hold a special place in my heart for showing us that. First the mullet pic, now this. You are a brave man, my friend.

Even it up, even it up, come on and EVEN IT UP!!! Here you are, darling. In all my lame gold lame' glory. This is worse than yours because #1 - I wore this BY CHOICE for a night out with my rockin' long haired boyfriend and #2 - it was 1992. :o :o :o

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/skcin/paula/gold.jpg

[The Tower]

Turquoise sucks ass.
Tell me about it!!! I actually chose to fight for that color.....

Completely fantastic. Now, I have to mention the gold shoes? They just seem not quite right.
They're those neutral colored dance shoes. Yes, we danced. Yes, I was (and still am) gay as all get out. Yes, my partner in blue was my fag hag.

I never had the cajones to put myself out there like that in highschool.
We we horrible. Our stupid choir director would always put us in competition with these big ass 35 person choirs and we would always lose.


I think I look better in a brown mullet with silver lame cummerbund and bow tie....

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b95/killahboot/bowtie.jpg

[Brwn_eyes0511]

thank JESUS i was born in 1985 and just skimmed through the 80's and early 90's as a child!!!! :sorry: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :lol:

[The Tower]

and #2 - it was 1992. :o :o :o
1992 ?!?!???!? :eek: :eek: :eek:

Jeezus. You are so right, woman. At least my horribly awful dated pic was from 1985, even though that's still not a good enough excuse for that nasty stuff I was wearing.

Grahhhhrhrhrhrh!!! I'm so mad now that I wasn't in choir with you? Look at your choreography! Our choir teacher had to point me out to tell other people to have rhythm. We were just supposed to be swaying beatfully to the music, but no one else could do it (african song). And, people, I can't dance.
You guys are like fricking flashdance!
Plus, we would've laughed at how lame some other people were. :laugh: :laugh:
Lookit what those chicks flanking you got to wear! Sexy black dresses! Oh, I am insanely retrojealous!
The girl on your right is ItaliaMexiHot....that could have been ME!!!

Also, Paula, you know that is a pretty good pic of you...and I like Lame' better than some other stuff...like the pink satin that my eight grade graduation dress was...with pleats on the whole thing...I looked like a giant pink scrunchie...

[SuzeQuze]

1992 ?!?!???!? :eek: :eek: :eek:

Jeezus. You are so right, woman. At least my horribly awful dated pic was from 1985, even though that's still not a good enough excuse for that nasty stuff I was wearing.

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Seriously, Paula, just what were you holding on to? :lol:

Towie, you are fabulous sandwiched between your fag hag hotties. I would've been like, "Why do I always have a crush on the unavailable gay guy?" if I were in your highschool. :laugh:

Looking back, it was a horror. I was a heavy metal headbanger gal, and for some reason that meant dragging big hair, blue eyeshadow, Jordache jeans & high top sneakers right into the 90's. Scary thing was - I was not alone. :shocked:

Wanna see my prom dress? :cool:

It was truly outta control, lemme tell ya..... The awful choreography and the jazz hands and total lack of precision and the off key caterwauling (not from me, of course).

And the big tre scandale thing of that picture (which I did on purpose) was that the girls' skirt's slit was on the left. My partner on the right was posing where under normal circumstances her skirt would have draped down over her thigh. I, however, decided to pull the skirt as high as it would go at the exact instant they snapped the picture. The look on her face is the "omygawd, I don't believe you just did that!". She was one cool chick, though- and really got a kick out of the whole thing.

To understand how far up I had pulled her skirt, take a good look and you'll see the white strap of her thong-style panties in the groove of her thigh....

:laugh: OY!! :laugh:

So. Choir. I thought everyone just stood there & sang badly. I had no idea you guys had choreography & costumes and such. Probably cuz I was too busy smoking dope in the woods behind my high school. :shrug:

I hate you both so very much, and I'm still laughing.

Seeky - I know, was just kidding.

Sparky, since you incorporated "Two Kinds of Lame", you are officially the ringleader of the Diabolical Organization. Only the Devil could think that up.

Strand? - you'll be tried at Stevieberg as well. You will play Marlene Deitrich. :cool: sure, you didn't make up the thing, but you participated. Plus, you are the only one tall enough to play her. "Judgement at Strandenberg".

Nevertheless, this is a rhyme for the ages:

Its a real long way to Lame
I thought we already wore that
oh have fun
tell the world

[sparky]

Have fun, wear a shawl !

I get to play Goebbels. I will dress as Donald Rumsfeld.

Blindsided.

Hey, don't you go camping in Oregon sometimes? What am I saying, you could probably go camping anywhere you want. A good place I've been to is Patrick's Point (Eureka-ish) You camp on the beach, but then you face away from the ocean, walk some paces, and you are in a hike/rainforest. You're in a rainforest hike. So, it's beach/rainforest hike. There is a rainforest right by the beach!!! It's like heaven!!!
There are pits, too, (fire pits) at the sites (big!), and a bit of bathroom, but other than that you're on your own. It was so good. We went during Thanksgiving vacation. At night we cooked fish on the pit, drank, and stared at the waves. I foraged for firesticks, and hopped around a bit (it's pretty desolate, fun to run along the beach). It's very, very lovely. There could be a big camping/hiking party there, and no one would blink. Again, though, it is like a 30 minute drive to "town."
*wipes brow*
whew! I'm sorry, you just excited me about camping. Hey, you know burning man? There should be a burning Stevie. :laugh: Except, knowing some fans, it would have to be Burning Stevie at the Wynn, or something. :p There probably won't be any "Stevie on the River" or "Burning Stevie". :(

Dude, that is awesome.
Woman.... I used to actually look good ..!!!....

Granted, I was just getting out of my Scarecrow Years, but seriously- I am sick of this ****ing late 30's metabolism!!!

Hello, Sparky!! Chime in with me, buballah!!

I was ****ing 18 years old in that mullet picture and I had like 3% body fat. Now, I must be up to .... gawd, I don't even want to imagine it.

Okay, Chris....... sorry. Got a little heated there. I actually do look better as I am getting older. However, the metabolism-slowdown-you-are-getting-fat-for-no-reason-you-now-have-to-get-off-your-lazy-ass-and-****ing-do-something-you-goddamn-cow is REALLY getting on my nerves!!!

JEEZUS!!!!!!

Wow... my eyes are still recuperating from the 80s fashion. Loving all the Stevie song reinterpretations though, Illame is still my favorite.

God, I hate I missed the rest of this thread. I never should have fallen asleep last night!

Maria- I have been to that amusement park-about 10 years ago- Cedar POint. A friend of mine is originally from Michigan and we went there to watch her brother graduate from HS, then drove to Cedar Point. WHat a great place!


Omg the pictures. The pictures! I wish I had a scanner. My MIL does, maybe I'll go oover there later and scan some of mine. I graduated in 1986, so I have some doozies.

SParky definitely won this round of Lame. Awesome.

My best friend is getting a tummy tuck on June 20th, and her boobs done (lift) on Sept. 19th. Both are because she has kids, though, otherwise she's actually in quite good shape. She's just my age. Okay, for the next three weeks she's a year older than me, but...;)
Anyway, surgeons are neat. But you looked fine when I saw you. :wavey:
Oh, and yes, I was talking to you. Burning Stevie at the Wynn. :laugh: Can we at least hold it at the Luxor for atmosphere???

Hard to tell under all that hair, but it had spagetti straps. Those things on my arms aren't attached sleeves, nor are they gloves. They're...I don't know what the hell they are. :p

I got it at the mall (tre' classy) at 5-7-9. Man, I remember 5-7-9. Man I remember when I could FIT into clothes from 5-7-9. :rolleyes:

Why is that lame? Bitching about it isn't lame..the asstard who gets in a line that clearly states "7 items or fewer" with 8 or more items is lame.

If you're a person who does that...you totally SHOULD be jailed...or at least made to go to the end of the longest line. Or sacrifice 1 item. :laugh: I hate public places.

Exactly!! That's five seconds I could have used to take an extra step toward my car and away from the public place ;)

Yeah - I don't ever notice if it's like one item - but the people who get in those lines with baskets FULL of crap...that's what upsets me - it's just annoying, the lack of basic "follow these directions" skills is what gets me.

Here's another thing that is lame - people who get into the U-Scan line - but don't know how to use it!!! :mad:

Seriously. I had a blog about this a while back because this woman was just an idiot - and when she finally finished she looked at me and was like, "Ugh - Good luck with THAT thing..." And I wanted to say something about her stupidity back - but opted not to. People are lame.

Oh god, this happened to me once at the Coinstar machine. I had to walk the lady in front of me through it. :mad:

I have found Walmart cashiers to be excessively slow and basically just not giving a sh*t. I really don't shop there anymore because I can't stand it. Fortunately there are other options around here. I like the U Scans myself, but have also been behind asstards at them. Man, those people are everywhere!

Mine too. I'd love to be able to say "oh, I won't shop there" but sometimes I have to. When you're on a budget, you do what you gotta do.

What's funny is that I do the exact same thing as you do. "I hate this Goddamned place, why do we come here, Jesus H Christ..." every time! And then I'll be back in a month. I hate myself, I feel so dirty. Stupid bargains.

because Wel-Fare mart has a tendency to hire people who are so mentally incompetent that Wel-Fare Mart gets a tax break for supplying that person a job cause otherwise they would end up as a high school guidance counselor.

As for me, I always wonder "Jesus Titty F**king Christ, Why am I shopping here for...Oh yeah, They monopolized rural Oklahoma and killed all competition leavin' us no other option unless we drive 75+ miles one way to Norman for 1 package of 4 ply T.P.".

Indeed I'm sure that's a huge pat of it. BUT I was taught to take pride in any job you do because it reflects on you. So be it cleaning toilets or cashiering somewhere I have always tried to at least be nice to people - I don't see that as much anymore. Like it's become totally acceptable for people in all industries to treat customers like crap.

Is it like this everywhere or are the people in Rochester just jerks?

I find it mostly at Walmart, to be honest. The cashiers talk to their friends while they're scanning your things, barely a "hi" let alone "how are you" or "did you find everything." Pisses me off. Half the time they just hold out their hand without telling me what the total is, so I stand there and stare at them until they do. And If I don't get a "have a nice day" I say "thanks, you too" anyway so they realize they should have said it.

I've heard people say it's becuse most of the cashiers at our Walmart are black so that's why they're rude. :confused: I can't believe people still think like that, let alone say it out loud. I always counter with "then how come everyone polite at the Target that's half a mile down the road?" Really, I don't know if Target is so much better than Walmart, but the employees there do seem happier and more helpful, so I have to assume they're trained, treated and paid better. :shrug:

Wanna know what else is lame? When you hold the door for someone & they don't say thanks. I always say "you're welcome" just as sweet as can be, hoping they'll feel guilty for not thanking me. Or at least know that I know that they're ignorant. :laugh: I also get reeeeeally upset when I let someone into traffic & they don't wave. WAVE you f*CKER! It's the right thing to do!

Oh that is way lame. YOu know what else is lame, when you follow someone through a door -and they totally slam it on your face.

There was a Frasier that addressed the holding the door with no thank you thing. It also addressed this:

Ok - you go to a store and stand in a long line to check out/ask a question. You finally get up to the front, but the phone rings and the person takes the call and helps the phone person. But YOU were there first AND you took the initiative to get your butt down to said store, so the people in person should be helped before the phone people.

when I worked in retail years back (Bill's Dollar Store) I had to work the cash register daily (Only male at our store was me, I was also the maintenance man, stocker/shipping clerk, builder, etc.) and I small talked with all customers, Asking 'em if they had a good day, asking their opinion about the weather and whatnot...Never had a complaint that I was rude to anyone.

Believe me, I only made $5.25 an hour (Much less than the $8 average WelFare Mart cashier makes) and I enjoyed my work & interacting with people.

What is really lame to me is what happened to rest of ya guys opening the door for a woman? What's a matter, too damn lazy to grab the door or something??? Sheesh...I'm anal about opening the door (Love watching a woman's confused look on their face since it must be something foreign to 'em nowadays).

But YOU were there first AND you took the initiative to get your butt down to said store, so the people in person should be helped before the phone people.


I KNOW! Shouldn't they tell the phone person to hold?!?!

Lame = Another cashier opens up their line & they say "I can help someone over here" and the guy with an overflowing cart who JUST got in line dashes over there ahead of the old lady who has 9 items in a little basket who's been in line for 10 minutes. Jerkass. I think they should find out who's NEXT (who's been waiting long) and tell them to come over.

Lame = You're heading for a register with 3 items, and someone shows up to that line & cuts in front of you at the same time with a full cart, 3 kids and food stamps. Listen, I have no problem with food stamps, or WIC or whatever, I've had several family members use them. But you know you're going to take longer, you know people are going to get stuck waiting. I ONLY HAVE 3 ITEMS! :mad: If I have a ton of stuff, or need a raincheck or something that I know will take longer, and there's someone behind me with only 2 or 3 things, I almost always offer to let them go ahead of me.

[DrummerDeanna]

I KNOW! Shouldn't they tell the phone person to hold?!?!

Lame = Another cashier opens up their line & they say "I can help someone over here" and the guy with an overflowing cart who JUST got in line dashes over there ahead of the old lady who has 9 items in a little basket who's been in line for 10 minutes. Jerkass. I think they should find out who's NEXT (who's been waiting long) and tell them to come over.



:nod: I HATE HATE HATE that. Even when they say, "I can help the next person" the next person can rarely get there in time. I've seen a few instances where some ass lick tries to race over there - but the cashier actually waits for the "next person in line" ...thereby pissing off the guy who was being a dick in the first place :laugh: I love that.

Here's another thing that's lame: Guys who make a date, don't show up on time...and don't even make a move to pay :mad: I know women are more equal nowadays - but some things should stay the same dammit.

[SuzeQuze]

Indeed I'm sure that's a huge pat of it. BUT I was taught to take pride in any job you do because it reflects on you. So be it cleaning toilets or cashiering somewhere I have always tried to at least be nice to people - I don't see that as much anymore. Like it's become totally acceptable for people in all industries to treat customers like crap.

Is it like this everywhere or are the people in Rochester just jerks?

It's like that nearly everywhere here but then Boston isn't really known for being full of nice people!

What is really lame to me is what happened to rest of ya guys opening the door for a woman? What's a matter, too damn lazy to grab the door or something??? Sheesh...I'm anal about opening the door (Love watching a woman's confused look on their face since it must be something foreign to 'em nowadays).

Yes, this morning a very young guy did this for me! I was on my way to work and I cut through a hotel. He waited for me to get to the door, I was at least 20-30 ft back, far enough for it to have been polite for him to just keep going. It wouldn't have been a slam in the face and I wouldn't have cared. I do get very angry at rudeness. Well, I can't even tell you how flustered I felt when he went out of his way to be overly nice and hold it for me. There were 2 doors, he held both, and I nearly sprinted through the lobby so I could get the 2 exit doors for myself and not put him out. It was so weird. I wanted to say, "You're not from Boston, are you?" But I just said thank you, and then thank you again with a chuckle.

He had the blue-est eyes. Otherwise he was kind of dorky, but his eyes were dreamy.

[DavidMn]

I would certainly hope that kindness to others isnt a lost art. I ALWAYS hold the door for someone if I can.

[SuzeQuze]

Me too, and if they have a child or a heavy load I will open it for them, even if I'm not going through it! Kindness is not a lost art but I can't tell you how much rudeness I encounter regularly here because it is so rampant.

People who don't seem to bathe - yet dowse themselves in nasty skanky cologne. OR better yet, when that same person/s spills gasoline all over themselves - and goes home - but rather than changing clothes/washing themselves - they just put on MORE cologne. Lame. And disgusting.

Why do you have a litter box if she goes outside?

Because they are not outside all the time. The other ones are thoughtful enough for the most part to go outside. But Oyenge seems to like the box. :rolleyes:
She was inside a lot more than the others recently, too, because she was sick. Now that her fur has grown back in and it is warmer, she can be outside more.
Hey, Paula, want to rescue another cat??? I rescued her once, but I'd be happy to hand her off. :laugh:

Nice sig pic, Jannie, I haven't seen that one!

[WelshWitchPMD]

Don't even get me going on Schmal-Mart. Every time I go into that place I mumble to myself that I will never go back. Their help is both clueless and useless! You know that you are in trouble when you go to look at a Compaq PC and there is a Toshiba sticker on it.:rolleyes: Then you go to inquire about the Compaq PC and the clerk brings out an E Machines PC. DUH!

OK my latest pet peeve is the CD section at electronic and book stores. I went to my local Circuit City and they had one Tom Petty CD in the whole store. They had a million PINK CDs but only one Tom Petty. Then I get the bright idea to go down a few stores to Borders. Egads that was worst then Circuit City. First of all they had one long row of Pop/Rock CDs and they were all one big mess. I found 2 Tom Petty CDs and one looked as if it had been in a war zone. I would have thought that Borders would take more pride in their CD displays but it was obvious that they didn't give a rat's ass.

OMG..don't get me Started on the U-Scans. I enjoy them - but each time I've tried in the last several months I get behind incompetento who has no clue how to use it.

Here's another thing that is lame - people who get into the U-Scan line - but don't know how to use it!!! :mad:

Seriously. I had a blog about this a while back because this woman was just an idiot - and when she finally finished she looked at me and was like, "Ugh - Good luck with THAT thing..." And I wanted to say something about her stupidity back - but opted not to. People are lame.

I've never tried the U Scan, worried it may take me a minute to figure it out and someone behind me may get impatient. Lame, I know! But ya gotta learn sometime I guess. :shrug:

Uuuummmok.

First off - yes, everyone should learn sometime - but I failed to mention the fact that the place was way packed - and there was a giant line behind her - if you don't know how to use something that is NOT the time.

No one helped me learn the damn thing - she was obviously dense as you'd pretty much have to be to not understand - AND the damn thing SPEAKS instructions to you. DOn't judge me.

[amber]

I'm guessing uscan is some sort of self checkout? :confused: And that other thing you guys were talking about, I've never seen that either (some other do it yourself thing that was mentioned a page or two back). I certainly loathe slow checkout people, though. I've grabbed the bag away. :laugh: I loathe slow everything. Almost everything.

Yeah - it's a self service checkout thing - you scan it, bag it and then pay all by yourself. They're ridiculously easy - as, like I said, they have printed instructions every step of the way, and many of them also speak the commands. They are quirky though - but I maintain that if you don't know how to use one - don't (at least not when there's any sort of line) That's like begging people to throw fruit at you.

I, too, loathe slow (almost) everything.

They have to be losing a ton of money from people "forgetting" to scan and pay for stuff.

[Lisa1769]

Wasn't meaning to be judgemental.

It's just that in one post you are talking about people being idiots. And you're getting frustrated waiting. Why not be a help to her and speed things up? Oh, nevermind, it's because nobody showed you how. Then a few posts later you say you have always tried to be nice to people and you don't see that happening much anymore. Sorry, I guess you just wasn't feeling "nice" that day. Happens to the best of us.

[GypsySorcerer]

I hate U-Scans, not that I haven't used them on occasion. Apparently, I don't "put the item in the bag fast enough", and I have to have a clerk come get me straightened out.

i hate the ones that do that! i never shop at the grocery store here that has that kind. the grocery store that i usually go to has one that functions just like a regular checkout, and it's not too bad ... of course, the only days it ****s up are those ones where i'm in a hurry, i look like ****, i'm buying something embarrassing, and somebody i know is behind me. then it refuses to take my $20 and starts flashing and i have to stand there like a jackass, holding my box of tampons or whatever, until some overly cheerful employee in a teal vest comes over to save me from the technology.

actually, we do have a couple all-organic grocery stores ... wait, that's totally a lie. we have grocery stores that have a "large selection of all-natural and organic products," but no organic stores. and even those i mentioned are, like, way far away. i can only think of one that's within an hour of here, and when you go, it's like, totally a "thing."

i'd rather live in the city than in the suburbs. cities can be loud/crowded/etc, but suburbs can be soulless, and that's worse. we have no delivery people, and the problem with basing a business on locally grown produce is that you can only harvest **** around here for about 4 months ... late july - early november, and even then your choices are limited. most of our good stuff (citrus, avocados, etc) comes from out of state and can get pretty expensive.

That is true. I feel really lucky. It's supposed to be good for you to eat the seasonal fruits/veggies of your area, though. Whatever.
Also, though, between the "suburb" (suck) and the "city" (different kind of suck) there is the "small town", or the "small college town" which are the best, really.

it's not really a college town the way most people think of college towns ... it's a town of about 50,000, and 30,000 of those are students. it's hard to explain kent. i don't hate it, but i've lived here for 15 years, so i kind of feel done here. i'm a townie for sure, but i've never been a part of the townie crowd (i'm not a big drinker and i don't like to smoke pot, so ...), so i don't have that, and almost all my friends moved away, so it sucks. it's lonely here. and as for ohio in general - i like it, i guess, (we have a lot of cows :thumbsup: ) but i've lived here my whole life. ohio can be pretty, but the culture and climate suck. blahblahblah, i'm totally rambling now.

If their chips are okay, that doesn't sound too bad. Is it salsa fresca, or the runny liquid salsa? I don't like cilantro much, actually, but they all put it in. My mom used to make homeade salsa that was really good, but no cilantro, more of a garlicky/salt base.
Seriously, we have to stop. I'll stop. I'm not talking about food any more in this thread.

:laugh: me neither, but when every line in the store is packed, I go for the U-scan, and especially when I only have like 10 or less items to buy.

I went grocery shopping with two of my lamebrained friends last summer and they went through a U-scan with like 50 items! :eek:. They were allowed because it wasn't a 15 items or less issue, but scanning 50 items yourself and bagging them takes forever, especially when you have a lot of produce and don't know the codes. I was rolling my eyes the whole time, I was thinking, we're never gonna get to the beach, thanks a lot boneheads :laugh:.

[DrummerDeanna]

Hey, maybe Deanna can help you!!! :laugh:


Noooo!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! ;)

Actually - some of them CAN be really quirky - like some have "weights" in the bagging area - so sometimes you bag something and it doesn't register and then the damn thing freezes up - OR you accidentally brush the bag and the damn thing thinks you're sneaking items...and freezes up :mad:

And to clarify - I was always nice when I WORKED in the public sector - not when I SHOP in the public sector :laugh:

I would never go through U-Scan with 50 items. :shocked: What kind of friends do you have, Tracye? :lol: ;)

I know, man. It was so stupid. I was completely embarrassed too. I kind of stayed away from the whole debacle by trying to kind of inch my way out of the line and towards the door :laugh:. Really, my friends are good people, they just had a lapse in reason that day, and I also think that they think it's fun to scan your own groceries. god love 'em...:laugh:

I went to a super wal mart (or something like that) after work one night at like, 2:00am. I figured there would be no crowds and shopping would be a breeze. So, I did my whole two weeks worth of shopping, and then realized that I *had* to u-scan my groceries; there were no cashiers! I had like over $200 worth of groceries. Took me forever. :mad:

[carrie721]

Does it come from CA? :wavey:

yep, sure does! we also get some citrus from florida.

It's fresher because it isn't shipped so far and you support the local economy instead of some big corporation!

oh, that makes sense. :nod:

That sounds like an all-night ordeal! I would have been so pissed! I'm sure you weren't tired or anything at 2:00 a.m. after work :rolleyes: :laugh:.

This just happened to us last week. Last week Mark & I bought a few things & the scale or sensor or whatever it is didn't register that we had put it in the bag. So he's yelling "it IS in the bag!" and of course, at that point the whole store was quiet for no reason & everyone stared at us getting pissy with the self-scanner. :laugh:

That's why I hit the "skip-bagging" button after almost every item to shut it up. :nod:

BUT....at least at the machines here....when you hit skip bagging more than 3 times, the thing freezes up, the red light starts flashing and you have wait for an employee :laugh: Seriously? I actually hate those things - and when there are live cashiers I go to them (what the helll are they being paid for otherwise ;) )

I only use them if I have a few items and no produce. :nod:

Ah. By the way, I find it COMPETELY lame that I've been able to converse about self checkouts for two days now :laugh: I reeeeeally need a life.

edit - I'm calling myself lame, I'm not saying anyone on here is lame for discussing it with me...I'm just sort of, oh I don't know, alarmed by how much I have to say about self checkout counters :p

If so- I like Jif, only Jif, nothing else :p

mmmm, jif. me too. only the creamy kind for me, none of that crunchy crap.

:nod: I've never enjoyed chunks in my peanut butter. I'm so damn picky though - I LOVE Jif - but only when it's relatively new and fresh - once it's been open for a while it begins to taste like all other peanut butters...

[seeker007nmss]

Yes, That's them! Jiff creamy with assorted jams and jellies. :D I think it was the "I want to go to..." thread. Also salsas were discussed along with other foods. We are a lively bunch! :thumbsup:

there's nothing better than a brand new container of jif. it makes me want to dive right in.

in fact, i would like to have a pool filled with jif. that would be awesome. :laugh:

Over here, Jif is fragrant gunk that we use for cleaning our bathrooms :nod:

Please don't mix them up if you come over for a holiday ;)

Oh, I thought you were just commenting on not like the Peanut Butter until I realized what you actually meant :laugh:

Thanks for the heads up! Hopefully the smell would have stopped me before I went to spread it on bread ;)

Speaking of the UK...oh how I love a good Flake Bar. Yum.

Do you not have your own Flakes over there? They've been around for decades now, and there's nothing quite like them. They used to have overwhelmingly suggestive adverts with scantily-clad girls getting all hot and bothered over them... ah, those were the days!

Using Peanut Butter to clean one's bathroom could be the way forward actually - I'd far rather do that than eat bathroom cleaner on bread anyway :woohoo:

Nope, we don't have Flakes here...my sister brought some back for me after a trip to England many years back. There is a lovely little import store in New Mexico that carries them on occassion - in fact I got four for Christmas - and still have 3! I'm conserving.

And those ads...I can relate...I'm getting hot and bothered just thinking about the Flake bars :eek:

So they have them in Canada, but not in the US? And here I was thinking that you guys had everything! :laugh: Buying them on eBay is one solution, I guess, but would they survive the mail system? They don't usually survive the struggle to open the wrapper :o

SHUT UP! It's only a 4 hour drive from me. We should totally do it, for reals. I haven't been in at least 5 years. PM me when you get back. I don't want to PM you now, I'll start making all kind of plans & reservations right this minute, and you haven't even left for THIS vaca!

Oh, and just for you:

http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y196/skcin/paula/prom.jpg

Yes, I am the one in the royal blue dress. Yes, it really was 1992. Yes, the guys are wearing white tuxes. And yes, that's really my hair. And my eyebrows. :o :) :shocked: :( :distress:


:laugh:


Someone else was looking at this thread, which made me look at this thread, and I become nostalgic, in that this is the funniest thread EVER for the first 10 pages or so. If you have not seen it, you must. If you have not seen it in awhile, you must re-peruse it. You will not be disappointed. The Tower/Sparky/Paula/Strand/Me/Everyone quip/lyrics substitute machine was in peak performance this night. It was all so good and fun.

And of course, in the spirit of manking pics from my parents, and bad 80's formal dresses, I have to show my solidarity with Paula, here, and unveil...The Monster!!!

Member, at 8th grade graduation, when you were trying to be hot, inexplicably, totally ignoring that you were wearing a big pink scrunchie? Member? :laugh: Sadly, Paula's blue full length scrunchie was so much better. Which is basically like saying dog crap smells slightly better than cat crap. I recall that I only had a certain low budget for my dress, and obtained it at the last minute, from a town with no stores. But still, excuses can't really justify this. I should have gone shopping with Paula. In 1992. This dress was in 1988. *shudder* The bottom gets worse, it was one of those poofy multirufflelayered Stevie fat looking styles. Like, I have a big ass, let me put some poofy ruffles over it!!! And yes, I wore white patterned tights. :laugh:

ha. that was totally me.

Okay, I totally have a PM for you, but must respond here first, cause it is more fun.
It's weird, but I actually exactly thought what you just said. About Stevie. then I scoffed at myself, but still. I was thinking my bow-like upturned lip somehow reminded me of Stevie. :confused: Also, I guess my face was thinner than it later turned out to be, and stevie has a skinny face. Still, though.

Yes, not the dress, Stevie's would be black. :laugh: You know, during Tango?

Seriously, though, you are freaking me out. :shocked: Because obviously, in general, I have few Stevie qualities. The fact that I thought that, then you posted what I thought, when it probably isn't even true, is odd. ODD, I TELLS YA! :laugh:

Yeah, I know it was you looking at the thread. Thank you! This thread is so great. :woohoo:

:laugh: that is odd. yeah, it's the lip thing, and at that angle, your nose looks like hers at that angle. and of course, the long featheryish hair completes it.

Yeah, I know it was you looking at the thread. Thank you! This thread is so great. :woohoo:

what's also funny is that i was going to bring this thread back up again, but you beat me to it. :laugh: is it wrong that i'm ledge-ing in two windows? one reading that thread, and one reading current threads? :o :distress: :laugh:

No, that is not wrong, I do that.
Also, yeah, you're right, I do have an upturned nose from the side. :shrug: Doesn't look like Stevie's from the front, it just looks like Italian fat nose, but the side...different story.

It's all too weird. Like my friend would say, "It was so cosmic, this beautiful vanilla sister, blah blah blah everything is cosmic, blah" :lol:

I'm still freaked out, though, I have a lot of this psychic concordence go on locally, but across the country is more rare. Except when paula gets up earlier than me and says stuff I was gonna just say. :mad: :laugh:
Sweet! :wavey:

You have to acknowledge that my dress is tragic. Wait, you haven't seen the bottom fat girl ruffles, but trust. It's Stevie in her worse fatleg ruffle layered dress, but not black. And no one should wear white pattern tights with a pink ruffly dress over the age of 6. Again, I think my budget was less than $50, and boughten the night before.

I guess I shouldn't be suprised, you have been my weird doppleganger. Perhaps Cancers are not only as psychic as their rep, but also more predictable than previously thought (they've been thought to be unpredictable due to their moodiness. I didn't make that up, I'm just reporting)
