Life is fanfuckingtastic

[Erik]

exactly.

so far guys I've known have died from

military helicopter crash
exposure in the alps
heroin overdose
scuba accident
gunshot wound in Belize
van accident as the designated driver

and try as I might I keep meeting new people and they are all going to be sucked into AC units or die in a fiery interstate accident and it all sucks.

wtf is up with all the hollywood deaths

 

[lizard]

Was that an ultimate ZING to the thread-starter?

no! RiA and I have had our pointless squabbles, but this is not one of them.

wtf is up with all the hollywood deaths

I have no clue, other than the fact that I grew up with military kids, and most of them definitely have a higher sense of adventure than civilian kids, maybe cause we grew up in an environment where death is not a stranger.

It was still funny I reckon

funeral planet
dead black asteroid
mausoleum
this world is a tomb

I've never seen so many strip clubs and military surplus stores as they have on "the strip", haha. You know what I'm talking about

oh, I forgot, I worked for a Major who had a sign up on his wall that said, "Better one day as a lion than a lifetime as a lamb."

He must have really meant it, too, cause one day his secretary came in on a monday morning and found him hanging from a chandelier.

shame, too, he was maybe the best boss I've every had. He let me and my family house sit on his Lake Michigan shore home while he was in England for a month.

for as long as there have been soldiers, there have been camp followers eager to separate young drunk troops from their pay.

This almost belongs in the OOPS I CUT MY OWN DICK OFF thread. Almost.

his daughter was so incredibly smoking hot, it was all I could do that month to avoid going into her room and fondling her undies.

 

[NAD]

I love you lizard, and I mean that in a bisexually homoeroticized platonic sort of way.

 

[lizard]

bathtime!

The major was so proud of her, he would talk about how she blossomed into a 36CC virtually overnight.

but it is true, men look for their mothers and women for their fathers in relationships ... not exact clones ... but qualities they like and are used to about them.

Wait, your girlfriend is Polish, right? Catholic I presume? That would explain a lot.

Cleaning and cooking are qualities? Haha, come on. Those are things done for you when you are little because you can't do them on your own and that just come in handy for many grown-up men so they don't have to do them. Guys tend to stay much longer with their parents than girls, at least over here. I know many who just switched over to the "care" of their girlfriends when they moved away from mommy and who still haven't learnt to stand on their own feet, who are still unable to prepare a decent meal or clean after them. Sadly, there are still enough girls out there who are willing to take over that Catholic housewife role. I have no respect for either of the two.

Blah. Whatever. Rant over.

I read that italian guys are the worst about this.

Yeah, it's probably worse in Catholic countries.

The fuck else are they supposed to be? No, really, tell me? You're implying that every man should be able to do this, yet they are NOT "qualities"?

It's a sad sign of the modern zeitgeist that you (and every other P.C. warrior) can have "no respect" for what some people feel is a 100% fair division of work & responsibilities and fully voluntary?

Also I think you'll find that in the purest sense, the traditional roles of having wives take care of children & the household while men do men's work has NOTHING to do with Christianity's oppression of women

 

[NAD]

I think main issue is being overlooked here: lurch's chick did something nice for him and he said "wow, that's cool."

Pretty cut and dry really.

The Vikings had very strict work divisions between the sexes. Goddam vikings. so did the skraelings. for instance, you never saw a warrior tenderinzing a bison hide with his teeth, am i rite.
