Heroes
The person who, when asked to put a poster up in his workplace for a SIDS benefit, asked what SIDS was. When told it stood for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome he replied, "Are you for or against?"Oh wait. That was me.
About me: Apparently, I have to punch a lot of women due to a comment from Fern. Fern gets many thanks for the opportunity. She's still getting punched though.
Speaking of which, I am a comment nazi. The comment section is for testimonials (If you need a good example, scroll down and look at the comment from Alex). To write a message about how you'll see me later is just that - a message, which means you should use the proper channels. Anything else, in my opinion, is nothing more than a simple cry for attention.
As for friends, all these people listed under my friend section (with the exception of three people, and I'll be dealing with them soon) are people with whom I have shared libations (that means I've drank with them, just in case you're scratching your head, brow all furrowed, near tears from the lack of comprehension). If you've drank with me, do me a favor and let me know when and where - with all of these friends, obviously my brain doesn't work at full capacity. If you REALLY want to join the drinking buddy list (and you know that you do), then I'm free Tuesday.
Keep in mind that if you do make the hallowed halls of my drinking buddy list, I do read your bulletins. If you post one of those stupid rumors or rallying cries for something that isn't true, I will tease you mercilessly and demand that you print a retraction. Snopes.com is easy enough to use and check, people. Save yourself the pain of looking like a complete idiot.
Yeah, I don't know why I have so many friends either.
Who I'd like to meet: People who can do imitations of that Dave Chappell/Rick James thing. Man, that's awesome. No, really! Do it again. Oh, and people that say "My bad." That's clever too.
Dean once drew on me with a marker in my drunken sleep. I got a t-shirt to commemorate the moment. The shirt says "If I wake up with marker on me, I WILL STAB YOU". Too bad I haven't had a chance to stab Dean.
Dean is an abusive son of a bitch. You'd think that getting older (and by 'getting older' I do mean 'decomposing right in front of us') would teach him some manners but, NOPE! Dean is DETERMINED to go out of this world the same way he came into it...a total asshole.
Dean is my most favorite jaded revolutionary. Besides, he can be quite the gentleman, and buys me drinks, especially when I need it. Dean is THE best bartender/drunk/dj/jaded revolutionary/philospher/nazi/curmudgeon/sweetie////, EVA!!!
How was that? Do I get even the slightest chance of getting this posted? Damn comment nazi.
when i turned twenty Dean threw me a surprise party- he had a keg in the bathtub that i wasn't supposed to see. Party girl that I was, I got drunk and passed out BEFORE the keg even got tapped. Thanks Dean!!
I've been friends with Dean for a whole LOT of years... mid 80's or so? He used to con us into giving him a dollar to eat Taco Bell hot sauce, little did we know it wasn't very hot since we were too afraid to actually try it. (I've since upgraded to REAL spicy food) We thought he was very brave none the less.
I've known him long enough that he helped me puke on my very first drinking excusion. I've never drank peppermint schnapps since.
I don't think my teenage and early 20's would be as fun had it not been for Dean and the crew. I'm happy to still be able to call him a friend.
