You could use it to scrub your ass in the shower. Please report results to Mr gHost in other thread.

You say that as if I don’t already do that.

Is this something you've discussed with your coffee chicks? Any of them mention coffee enemas to help break the sphincter ice?

I haven't. It's kind of sensitive subject.

I love shoveling snow.

I mean, I just do.

One of big misgivings I have about going into a condo is not being able to shovel snow. Great exercise.

true - and I'm a rather meticulous sort when it comes to that sort of thing (this attribute doesn't extend to all aspects of my existence), so I also enjoy the straight lines and plotting the most efficient pathway to residential snow removal.

You might hit it off with my neighbor. He's got an entire arsenal of snow removal equipment. A plow truck, a riding snowblower, a push snowblower and of course shovels. When it snows (if it ever does) up here that shit doesn't have a chance against him.

I use my snow train to clear my driveway.

I gave my anal a cherry, that had no stone.

Your anal is like a rollercoaster baby, baby

Anal, American style

Laughed so hard I had a few tears.

I keep a can in my car since I basically live in it for work. It’s a good pick me up when I’m busy. Love cashews.

I buy them at Costco. They're perfect, not oily like Planters, and light on the sea salt. I just didn't have any at work when I was craving a handful.

It's interesting how accents change over the years. No one talks like this any more. Also it seems that a lot of people talked in a higher pitch back then. Odd.

I don’t know if you heard, but every single one of those people interviewed and seen in the background, are dead. All of them. Dead. It’s so sad.

They sound pretty much just like old people now to me, pylon.

Really? Not to me. Like at all. Their speech patterns are a lot faster back then vs. now. Their inflections are totally different from any accent I've heard in the present day. Their octaves when they speak are a bit higher than most people today.

There are a few that sound like how people talk today, but even those have a little bit of an old timey accent that kicks in every once in a while.

You should mostly ignore the pitch, as the recording equipment of the time was not made to capture the lower registers so it likely sounds much more grating than it did in life. In addition, tapes stretch, and playback speed is not regulated as precisely. I don't really notice an accent that sounds any different from when I see a bunch of older folks in a group. Maybe I'm crazy, I don't know.

I don't know how else how to get my point across. Maybe this will help. I hear a lot of this.

I thought you were talking about real people. Yes, actors talked funny in the old days. It was definitely a thing.

I am talking about real people. The people in the clip I previously posted. Listen to those first two guys talking. It's very similar. If you don't hear it I don't know what else I can say.

Now I'm going off on a bit of a tangent. We speak the bestest according to this old dude.

I think they sound like a lot of old dudes with dentures. Maybe they had bad teeth? I don't know, I'm just not really hearing it.

I see what you mean Pylon. I always think of the old radio auction/or race horse announcers. Looks like it was a taught accent in that clip you posted. Interesting.

I also think the first clip is partially due to the old recording being distorted.

Played HorseRace with a kid that had the PERFECT old time race announcer voice. It was incredible. Never been more excited for a drinking game

how many times has she skated ghost?

Are websites like Anglie’s List and Home Advisor worth browsing and actually helpful when looking for electricians, handymen, etc.? Or is it just a bunch of electricians and handymen and others just anonymously giving themselves great reviews?

I need a new ladder. My Direct TV dish is full of snow and I can't get a single channel to come in.

Heh. Get it?

Step right on up.

Maryland offers many insured men free vasectomy coverage

I will never get a vasectomy because if I unexpectedly get rich, I want to have a shit ton of kids with many different women. Don't tell my wife.
