The Summer 2015 Anti-Chuff Thread

[jdbailey1206]

That sounds like an invitation for me to come and visit you and yours on Christmas.  It'll  be like  Christmas Vacation.   

[Vigo]

I remember being in Arizona over Christmas. Overnight it dropped down to 30 and decorative fountains had a millimeter layer of ice form over them overnight. People were calling it a Christmas miracle.

Missed out on a Star Wars yoke that was sale for 9 hours on the BST thread.  I have been looking for 2 years.  I think its time to hang it up on a search for one of those damn things.

Absolutely.  Then, all of the deals will come out of the woodwork. 

[yotsuya]

I got a good look at that one I mentioned to you a few months ago. Yeah, pass, unless you REALLY want a yoke.

$150.00       That would make a chufftastic summer!   

[BadMouth]

Apparently spending most of the day crawling around in a hot dark attic that isn't large enough to stand up in while wearing a respirator because the air induces coughing fits will suck the chuff right out of you despite what you've accomplished while up there.

Managed to install a ceiling light and two wall sconces in the living room without damaging the drywall, but I'm just not feeling chuffed so I'm posting in the Anti-Chuff thread.

I don't want to go back up there. 

[pbj]

Won't help with the breathing, but I wired in a bunch of Christmas lights in my attic.  They come on with the single light socket up there. 

I will never not have an attic that isn't lit by Christmas lights ever again.

[BorgDog]

I spent a much of the day yesterday in the crawl space with the dust and cobwebs moving electric for the bath project. not much fun either, but well lit by my sting of construction lights, 10 lights 10' apart, 100w bulbs, hanging semi-permanently in the crawlspace.

Last night I got a pain in my side... within 20 minutes I was on the floor.  Had to go to the emergency room at 5 am.  Kidney stone apparently.

....maybe from those chemicals that got dumped in the water last year. Perhaps you should check into it. 
I hope it doesn't give you too much trouble.

[Howard_Casto]

Heh, when you live in a place dubbed "the chemical valley" you call it good luck when you aren't born with three eyes. 

Eh I'll live... I just didn't think so at the time.  Over the years I've stepped on nails, had my foot sliced open to clean the wound, nearly drilled through my finger, got "the shingles", torn muscles.... yeah I guess that stuff didn't hurt as much as I thought it did. 

I was already going to a kidney specialist because my thyroid doctor saw that my creatine levels were off, so it may be related... I'll see him next week. 

[jdbailey1206]

Sorry to hear about your pain Howard.  I've never had the luxury of kidney stones myself.  I hear they are a real pain in the dick.  I have the pleasure of seizures and migraines.  I got in a car accident when I was 18 and crushed my nose against the steering wheel.  Had to have reconstructive surgery and wear a nose brace for a week.  And now I have to take pills so I dont pass out from flashing lights.  My nuerologist is a cutie so I guess thats a plus.

My weekend sucked ass also.  I got into a big fight with my wife over parenting.  I had to replace the alternator and my battery in my truck in the parking lot of Auto Zone 150 miles away from my house with tools I already had but had to buy at Auto Zone.  And I got there by getting my truck towed twenty miles because my truck puked on the interstate.  So after a two hour fight with the alternator I got my truck started and was pulled over by Ohios finest two hours after that and given a speeding ticket just so I could make it to an empty apartment where Im working in W Virginia to sleep alone and go into work where the project manager I am working under makes all the wrong decisions, gets OSHA called on us and a safety guy who thinks sitting in his office is the best way to make sure my crew is participating in safe work practices.

I lost $5 in a  5c Keno machine.  Took the mechanic 90 mins to come out and fix it. 

By the time the dude got there I won $450 (6 out of 6) with my other $5 on the machine to the right.

Went to Macys and bought a bunch of Coco Chanel makeup for the old girl.  Arrived home and got totally chewed out for being late.

Cant win successfully, apparently....

Next time I see the word "Tate", I'm going to murder something. Probably a potato.

Are you really saving that much time and effort by leaving off the "ro"?

Especially when an apostrophe is used. 1 character saved.

Why are you bitching about 'Tate'.  I know this is the Anti Chuff thread but potatoes have done nothing to you.

Sorry, didn't hear you. I was too busy moving my Ms Pac-Man across the room.

[Howard_Casto]

Yeah that one pisses me off as well.  One guy 10 years ago uses the abbreviation in a youtube video or something and now all the noobs think it's a term.   

While we are on wordplay, it's "s-n-e-s" not "sneez".  So why is the original Nintendo a "nes"?  Because that doesn't sound utterly retarded.

[Malenko]

always said it like "Sness" not sneeze

Is that where it came from? Ugh.

It just.... sounds goofy,  I dunno. And most of the time, when mofos use it, they sound like your mom trying to use the hip new slang so you guys can pal around. Word to your mother.

[yotsuya]

I've heard it S-N-E-S and Sness. Either seems fine.

I thought it was just me.  Really dislike the work "tate".

You say Taito I say Taughto...

Good.  Get it in position so I can play it and comment how well it plays in the Christmas Vacation of Chuff thread.

[Vigo]

Here is my anti-chuff.... My genesis and dreamcast and games are MIA. Lost in my house move last year. I think I will need to start a kickstarter campaign to source funding to look in my basement for them.

If that's how you are going to be let's call the whole thing off.

[yotsuya]

Mel Tormé would have been proud of the direction this thread has gone.

[Vigo]

[wp34]

Neeeeeekkkk!!!!

[harveybirdman]

While we're at it can we get the definitive on Chassis and Toaplan?

#Team Gigawatt

#don'tgimmenocoloquialismdocbrown

[yotsuya]

I don't know about the second one, but chassis is definitely pronounced "shays-s-ice".

[Howard_Casto]

"Chah sys"  and "Toe plan"

"Chah see" is also acceptable

[yotsuya]

I say "Chah see"

[jdbailey1206]

Plus did someone mention Marisa Tomei?  Dat girl is nice....

[BadMouth]

I like Tate.  It's fun to say.

And it is sneeze, because I grew up a Sega fanboy.
(who needs rotation and scaling)

Am I posting in the Chuff or Anti-chuff thread?
I can't tell the difference since country music came up.

[jdbailey1206]

Is it me or has this whole summer been ---smurfy---?

[Howard_Casto]

The weather certainly sucks.  It didn't rain this much last fall, and I've got painting to do.
