Marriage isn't a 24 hour/365 day/lifetime party of eternal shining adoration, so someone having a "moment" of reflection on why they got married followed by a demonstration of another "moment" of delight in their marriage should not be looked upon in any way as thunderclouds and doom for the relationship of the little cat, Roast Beef.

Speaking in my capacity as an S.A.D-addled, romantically-awkward computer nerd who married a woman that patiently puts up with far too much neurotic crap from me, Beef's thought process there rings so true it's scary.

Marriage can be great, yes, but after the third or fourth "weren't you even going to OFFER to mop the kitchen argument, you realize it ain't all beer and skittles.

You know you can defend the many areas in which the US is superior but I can't back you on calling a date order where the time periods are in order by size, instead of month THEN day THEN year, 'backward'. It's like a clock that reads 54:03pm and then the seconds. It is dumb as hell.

I have a weak spot for dogs. Seeing Scrambles get pissed on by Todd saddens me. Hes lonely and confused, and this squirrel is being rude.

And then he disappears for 8 years. He probably got stuck under the porch and is a skeleton now.

I prefer to think some teenagers peeled out on him five minutes later.

Says the man who settles differences over a bottle of Mad Dog. Own up to your love of cheap fortified wine, mister

I once drank Mad Dog with this dude. Good enough guy but...put it this way, we once had a Bring Your Own Steak cookout, and he showed up with a cow tongue, insisting it was too a steak. He also once showed up at this other dude I know's house...before going to bed he had locked and double checked every single door and window. He went to sleep, and four hours later, the Mad Dog dude was shaking him awake and asking if he had anything to eat. When asked how the hell he got in the house, he reacted with a genuinely confused "what?". He hosed things up in ways that defied the very laws of physics.

Anyway, that's the sort of dude that will split a bottle of MD 20/20 with you.

Expiration Date posted:

In the south, you don't go anywhere but Waffle House. There's Dennys and Steak n Shake there too, but honestly if you're going anywhere at 3AM that isn't Waffle House, you're clearly not drunk enough. If you're a dapper sort you end up at a Perkins I guess. But that's for fancy people.

Unless your small North Carolina town is without a Waffle House; then you must choose between Hardee's (the original Monster burger was the best drunk food of all time), or...Huddle House. Huddle House people. A terrible place to be hammered, as you spend your entire meal wondering what circumstances would lead a 75-year-old woman to be serving coffee at 3:30am at a place that sees the occasional shootout.

Someone always brings this up whenever anyone mentions it here. Citizen Kane is important because of its advances in cinematography, not because of its story. Nowadays you wouldn't notice the nice touches because they're common now.

you threw her down a flight off stairs
your son came home with 4 d's and an f
you kicked him in the balls and in the face

If Onstad is referring to what I think he is, Busted papers are basically weekly publications that are nothing but mugshots for everyone arrested in a city or small area. They're sold in gas stations for one dollar, and they are absolutely hilarious.

The covers alone rule. One of our local ones would show the charge under the mugshots on the cover and it broke down as follows: MURDER / 2ND DEGREE RAPE / ARMED ROBBERY / GRAND LARCENY / FISHING WITHOUT A LICENSE
