Good call on renting the rototiller.

I cringe every time I hear my wife fire ours up, she's a holy terror with that thing. She only stops for gas, I'm pretty sure she could kick my ass if she ever realizes how strong her forearms have become using that thing.

Thursday night to me is like Friday night to you normal people. In my business, you work Saturday, so everyone takes another day of the week off. I've had Friday for about 2 years now. I prefer it to having saturday off. In fact, we rotate one manager off on each saturday except the last of the month. You have to work your normal off day, though. This was my weekend, but I'd rather be off and able to do all of my errands when the idiots are at work ( not you idiots, the idiots that congest my local area). Also, Saturdays are my most lucrative days, so I work them.

I had a schedule like that when I worked at a call center. God, I hated that schedule...and that job.

I tellya, it's a real luxury, getting to run errands when the rest of humanity isn't out there trying to get stuff done. You can drive down the highways at full speed, park close to your store, find an aisle with nobody in it etc.

I won't leave the house at 6pm weekdays.

OK, i got it because the one we have sucks ass. the new one is self propelled and jinx can use it much more easily. I normally do the lawn, but when it rains on my days off, i'm screwed. unless i want to mow in the dark.

Oh man, I was pretty sure nothing rhymed with orange, Clodfobble is a freaking genius!

You design video games right? Could you get to work on one I could actually win? Tapper was cool but to hard...there, you have a starting point.

Clodfobble · 05-15-2004, 05:19 PM

In case you're curious, the (only) three other words in English that nothing rhymes with are silver, purple, and month. (I have some weird ass shit tucked away in my brain.)

And I don't design the games themselves, just the sounds for them. Never heard of Tapper... did it sound good?

Slartibartfast · 05-15-2004, 05:23 PM

So we have orange and purple as non-rhyming words. Who the hell named our colors????
