71 kids by the end of the night. One of the better turnouts in the 7 Halloween's at that house.
Some super-cute costumes to.

Now, the slow trudge to Christmas before I have anything more than a weekend off.

Wheee?

I am actually stoked because I got something for AI:SS this week too.

Halloween was a good one. We had tons of kids, my parents came to my house and my dad went around with me for a while with the kids while Mrs. Heroic and my mom hung out at house to pass out candy. My kids and a friend went around for two hours. They got a ton of candy, but not as much as you would think going around for that long. They were so slow, celebrating every single treasure after every single door.

Being a dad is good :3:

That's awesome man! It was my favorite day as a kid - and kids love it when you go out with them.

A+ Parenting (ps saw the costumes on facebook, friggin awesome)

Going by totally-not-me's real birthday, then it was probably more like Veteran's Day. :v: Possibly even Thanksgiving, depending how late I not me really was.

Or, it was just a cold night in the desert. Either way....

e: actually, yeah, using that link, if not-me wasn't actually late like someone claims, it lines up with Thanksgiving perfectly. I'm never gonna be able to look at turkey the same way. Or stuffing...

Something something dad's gravy... :P

Well I got a text at 1:30 in the morning informing me that they were taking my dad to the ER by ambulance because he couldn't breathe.

loving hell.

So sorry man.

I'm worried my dads heading that way - 83, smoked all his life, COPD, and just got diagnosed with lung cancer. We're waiting to find out what exact kind and treatment options, but I have a feeling He won't make it to 84.
Sucks.

Rant as needed if you need support man, AI may be full of assholes, but we're nice assholes.

Pretty ballin Fridge Corn - congrats!

And, in light of yesterday - this is intense:

Really brings 100 years of history down to a small recording. Really hope the world can remember how lovely losing entire generations of young men can be.

People definitely get attached to their culture. I don't understand why people get huffy about this stuff ("If its sweet, its cake!") -- I definitely have some attachment to the foods I grew up with, but it is just so very awesome to live in a metropolitan area with so many different cultures and foods.

Related side-note: What everyone calls pot pie is 100% not what I grew up with as pot pie. Pennsylvania Dutch pot pie isn't meat and vegetables in a crust, it's meat and noodles in a gravy. There appear to be warring factions in this subgroup as well, with some using eggs in the noodles and some not. My family was the latter. This looks close to my grandmother's recipe's final results; she always used ham instead of chicken. On cold winter days, it's the food I miss most from growing up, I think.

Sorry bro, that's not a pot pie :P Fight me :)

Its a pot pie because the pie crust makes its own pot around the fillings. Can be beef, pork or chicken (hell, even saw a clam chowder one once...wasn't ballsy enough to try it though). But the crust has to envelope the fillings so it all cooks in its own juicy awesomeness.

It's a bastardization of a German word (much like the "Dutch" in "Pennsylvania Dutch" itself), and we wouldn't call it "a pot pie," just "pot pie." And I don't care, it's delicious, you should try it. =D Food is great. Try all the food.

Hahah no worries, I'd try it. I eat everything, I loving love food. I'm just going to poke fun at people calling things wrong (and yes, that's subjective, but pretending I don't know that really riles some people up, and I like trolling folks)

fridge corn posted:

Over here that's just called pie

And another wrong answer :P (but in all seriousness, is pie generic for sweet or savoury - aka apple pie and a chicken pie? or do you have some other wordage for a sweet/dessert pie?)

Well. The last couple of weeks have been gooooood. The Canadian loved Australia and she REALLY loved the WRC. She was hooked as soon as a Audi S1 howled into view

Another month and Im off to spend Christmas in Canada with her. Kinda sad shes going home but so drat happy she visited and loved it. Also loved my kitties

Nice! IIRC - west coast, aka Vancouver(ish)? Great spot. Enjoy it. Go skiing in the Rockies if you can while you are here - not a huge trip, 110% worth it.

These days? Bull loving poo poo. Liberal snowflakes and the liberal administrator enablers have shredded that concept to oblivion.

College is valuable, to the student and to society. But saying everyone has to go is bullshit, just like saying nobody should go is bullshit. There's a balance to be struck. Trade schools for trade specific training, AA's for general skills training, and gap years before college for real world training should be far more prevalent all around.

I'm left as it gets, and I agree with that? The people that are pushing the university/college agenda seem to be the right-wing "PUSH MOAR BUTTONS DRONE! SHAREHOLDERS DEMAND MORE VALUE".
Up here in my northern socialist paradise, trade schools are pushed heavily - there was a while they weren't, but the last 2 decades has seen a resurgence. At least in rural areas.

I am embarrassed to admit but that is actually our second tree. We have a more traditional one in the front room. I told my wife we did not need a second tree but it is apparent how that conversation ended.

I have a tree inside...and wife wants to go cut one down for outside.
Who am I to object to a chance to be manly and cut down a tree to make my wife happy?
