The official "another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody" thread
Really, I just wanted to start an "official" thread. I don't think I've ever started an "official" thread before. I feel so... "official."

But then, it's really not even Saturday night, yet. I know this, you see, because I'm not yet drunk.

Dammit! Dammit! Dammit! My first "official" thread, and I screwed it up already! Where's my chris farley smacking himself on the forehead icon? Must be off hiding with the fucking manual. Damned scheming nonexistent things!

1. Well, here I am!
I'd love to drink, but I can't while on Zoloft. :-(

Still, virtual booze is a good substitute. :D

3. have a virtual drink, then
:toast:

I'm leaning towards excessive amounts of marijuana, or possibly some intra-ocular drano for my evening buzz. Plus the beers, of course. But they're good for my heart. ;-)

4. Alas, no.
I am poor, unmotivated, lazy as all hell, and scavery, to boot. I don't get much of anything that ends in "aid." Except Raid. I always buy Raid brand bug killer, you know, for when there's bugs.

not so much with the "having." We have recently become estranged. That's really all I can say about it now.

I'm sorry. Hell, you can have one of my beers after all.

What can I say about women? They're cute and they smell good. And they'll drive you slowly insane. I hope things work out for both of you.

9. I think I'll have something tonight.
I'll take one. I've got someone I seem to be perpetually stuck with. Not forever, but it feels that way right now. There's someone I like a lot who's both far away and having a pretty tough time right now that I'd rather be with at the moment instead of in this asexual, tense, trying-to-walk-on-pins-and-needles existence that is my life. So here I am-> on D freakin' U. :party:

19. See, I can tell this, because I just drank a Red Stripe
love them stubby little bottles!

So, it's another Saturday night. Only my 2nd one in a row with the "ain't got nobody" bit. Stings mightily.

But the stubby little bottles help. ;-)

21. Well, letting yourself hurt...
...is probably the right thing to do at this point. Keeping your sense of humor and hanging out with us is also good. I know it sucks right now, but you will be more than fine.

18. I guess that makes it officially "official".
But quit beating yourself over the head.
After all, it IS your first OFFICIAL thread.
And not bad at all for a first try.
I can tell your badge came out of a Wheaties box, but it does look damned authentic anyway.
Try wearing your uniform cap more down over your eyes and not on the back of your head like Barney Phyffe.
You look more official that way.
And tuck in your shirttail.
A shoeshine wouldn't hurt.
But all-in-all not a bad first attempt.
:thumbsup:

49. How's it gonna be a secret, really?
It says "electric" right there on the package, plain as day. Well, OK, it's in vertical text instead of the usual English-language left-to-right horizontal thing, so maybe not "plain as day." But surely at least plain as twilightish-dusk?

at night, but it wasn't last night - I'm just saying, you weren't supposed to tell anybody - it was to be "our little secret" and now you've ruined it.

BTW - What are you saying? You understand much even though you are drunk and you are very hard with the language always with the beers?

Damn *swoon*

Ah yes, sitting home with Spellbound (coming on in 20 minutes!) and Saturday Night Live, avoiding making up all the grad homework I missed this week with a sick kiddo!

I'm not even 30 yet--I'm fairly positive that all my Saturday nights won't be like this. Uh, I hope.

And my goal for the evening is to not pass out until I've seen what this SNL/Eminem thing is all about. Ooh - and I've been home all week with a recently-wormed puppy! Not that it's different from any other week, except for the copious liquid dung.

I just found this site a while ago and I'm in love with all of you! I'm so optimistic about this election! I just saw the greatest documentary on Free Speech TV called "Something about W" - it's such a great indictment of the past four years.

Vote Kerry!
