The Denson dude that came out of the closet also had a nice game. So did the catcher that used to play at UWM.

I just walked 18 holes. Real golfers don't take carts. Your friends obviously aren't golfers, but then they aren't drinkers, have much stamina (obviously they don't swallow apple meth) or very sociable either for that matter considering their propensity to puke and crash early. You might want to consider a trip with a woman instead of those losers. Yeah, she might bitch, but I have yet to meet a woman who tosses lunch into a hot tub. You have much better odds she tosses your salad in the hot tub. . The New Orleans trip I went with my girlfriend involved drinking, eating, and no puking. A clinic on how to handle yourself while imbibed.

Lunch at the Bojangles near Jackref's office. The Bojangles biscuits and fried chicken are easily the best fast food fried chicken and biscuits. I am not really a biscuits guy, but I will make an exception for Bojangles biscuits. Now if the sweet African American ladies that work here would only speak a dialect of English I could understand!

I felt the same way this past summer when trying to communicate with a guy in a London bar. Super thick cockney accent. Couldn't understand one damn word.

With all the Far Eastern and Asian tekkies here, along with the black ancestors carrying on the plantation English dialects, and the Bubba Bathroom Bigots, Raleigh Durham is a true melting pot. Not to mention this is the state capitol where the bigots gather to make their mischief against people who aren't like them. Met a lobbyist for the trial lawyers this morning (my opponent) who had on a poplin suit, smoked a fat cigar in his office, and acted like he was boss hog of the county. He probably is but I will quietly kick his ass anyway.

Careful Coast - Bojangles quickly becomes addicting. Their breakfast cajun biscuits are ridiculous. Throw in some Bo-rounds and a coffee and that is a magnificent way to start your day. And then run to the bathroom 2 hours later but that's just the cost of doing business with Mr Jangles.

I DID do the Bojangles dance to the bathroom two hours later. But yeah. I'll do it again.

Four "people" in a car at a gas pump. They fill up. Me, whitey, is waiting in line behind them. They damn sure know I am waiting for the fat lady to move the damn POS car. She does not. First, she waits for the little kid to buckle herself into her car seat. Nice that she cares about safety of the kid,but she apparently ignores the fact that the dude in the back seat next to the kid is smoking a cigarette with the windows open TWO FEET from the gas pump. Fat lady ready to move...nope, she has to haul her 300 pound ghetto booty outta da car to look for somethin...not sure if she was looking for her keys, a bucket o chicken or her damn brains.
Pump next door opens up so I move and of course ghetto mama moves her 1975 piece of shit once I moved.
God I love Raleigh.

It has been months since I have had to sit behind a cretin on an airplane who reclined their seat. Next time you travel, take a look, 99% of people get it. Usually you get one hillbilly who does it on a plane but it's really rare. So tonight, here I am on a plane and a very attractive MILF in front of me does it. My laptop is folded almost in half as I try to type this. This bitch really does not know or does she just not care. Ok, it's get even time.
I was rushed so I picked up some buffalo wings to go. I'm going to eat them right now. Wave the smell of hot wings right by her. Maybe I'll even accidentally spit a little hot sauce or drop a blue cheese celery on her hair. Fucking MILF. Give me 30 minutes. She will be sitting upright. This is fucking war.

She just straightened up. The flight attendant whispered something to her and then she straightened up. Maybe he told her that in 2016, reclining your seat when someone is behind you is an extremely rude and disrespectful act. The reclining feature is only to be used when nobody is behind you. Or something like that. Whatever, she straightened up.
Any more, this is really rare and it's good to see flight attendants explaining the unwritten rules of polite society to people who don't know. Usually it's one person or even less on a plane who doesn't know the basic rules of polite society. Cultural misfits and inbreds don't fly very much. Thank goodness. I can now type,eat and drink in peace.

This would be a good new thread...what are the unwritten rules of polite society that some people don't know or just don't care if they violate?
Here are a few travel ones besides reclining on an airplane when someone is behind you...
Do not take off your shoes on an airplane unless you are in business or first class on an overnight flight and have a reclining sleeper.
Do not cough, sneeze or belch without covering your mouth. (This applies to more than travel ,but it's just amazing how many people do this when seated x inches away from you on a plane, bus, train, etc.
Do not talk so loud on your phone that the person in your row, ahead or behind you, can hear you. (Again this applies to all situations, not just travel).
If you are in the middle seat, you do not own both arm rests. Try to position your arms so you can share both with your neighbors.
If you think you might have to get up and pee more than once in a flight, then make sure you pay for an aisle seat.
More?

I can proudly say that I violate exactly none of those.

I like the travel ones the best as that's when decorum is thrown out the window.
Adding to sneeze/cough - not sure if scientifically valid this helps but I try to sneeze sneeze/cough inside my shirt or inner arm sleeve. I figure unless I have sanitizer or easy access to a bathroom it's the better "catcher" of germs.
Carry-on luggage - for the love of God put your luggage in length wise. Putting it width wise across means no other luggage would fit! Now you've delayed the boarding as the flight attendant or a nearby seatmate has to correct your ignorance or laziness.
Do not bring your iPad into the airplane bathroom.
If it's a trans-ocean flight, do not open the blinds. Let the cabin lighting dictate the brightness within the cabin. At night not much of an issue. But when it's sun rise or bright out you're messing with people's clocks that haven't adjusted.
Never ever use a laptop/iPad/mp3 player without headphones.
It is your duty as a parent to ensure your child/infant is well behaved. Do not ruin the flight for everyone.

Or at least make an attempt to calm the kid if he's going nuts. Sometimes kids have meltdowns. The worst are parents who ignore it and continue on oblivious.

Not sure if I told this story, so forgive me if I did. My daughter was like 1 or thereabouts and she was not a happy camper on the airplane. We were surrounded by the Philly Flyers hockey team. They had just lost to the Penguins and they and we were flying out of Pittsburgh. They were not in a good mood obviously and they were not amused with my daughter. I kept trying to quiet her, hold her, whatever I could, but she was having none of it. She was bawling the entire trip to Minneapolis. The Flyers started talking, obviously about my daughter, or maybe me, in French. Even speaking French, I could tell they were not amused. Luckily, they didn't send the enforcer to our seats.

By the way, I would never spit or drop blue cheese on anyone intentionally. That would be a grievous violation of polite culture. A little hyperbole on my part in the heat of the moment. But then you guys knew that.

Quad Cities...Back in my hometown (and Ryan's also). Growing up here, I guess I always knew it was Redneck Factory Town/Farmville USA, but coming back here once every x years is still culture shock. Still after all these years, I love bib overalls. I wear em occasionally. It's a bit of farm boy Iowa. But seeing guys who weigh 300+ pounds wearing them, damn it's a sight. Boys need to spend more time shoveling manure and less time eating the pork.
There is a great farm food resto here...Machine Shed. Love the good down home food. But the average weight of people in the place seems to be about 50+ pounds overweight. Guess the economy is good here because people are sure eatin!

Maybe it's a little different around here than in some other places. I just asked my brother if the term redneck bothered him. He said "Hell no. I'm a redneck and proud of it."

Drove to O'Hare today for the bird home. With a few hours to spare, which of these would you do if you didn't live in Chi any more and might not get back for awhile? 1. Frontera Grill for Mex dinner 2. Wally's Polish grocery for sassage to take home 3. Johnnie's for Chicago Dogs. 4. Giordano's for pizza. 5. Gibsons for bone in ribeye dinner
