Just another boring weekend, hmm?
There were a couple of interesting moments.
“What is the Bacchus Hierarchy of Needs?”
Awesome. Who say’s blogs do not teach…
The easiest way to spot the slightly hungover bartender at brunch is to look for the person with a water, a glass of juice, cup of coffee, and a mimosa before them.
“intoxitipation”…awesome. I have to save this one for a rainy day.
The state of which is usually only discovered when reviewing credit card receipts from the prior night.
As long as we’re talking about WHAM!’s Careless Whisper, and not the awful cover…
There was a cover? Say it ain’t so…
Did you risk it all in Final Jeopardy?
Still waiting on the question
Very clever. I love this.
I must, however, mention that I have several pairs of absurdly oversized sunglasses, which I love. But I’m not 20-something. Also, can readily admit that some days I would effing love to be Holly Golightly. Perhaps these mitigate?
Lisa, dear Lisa, you know that I heart you, but this trend really must cease. It’s time to give the 90s their look back.
My brain hurts from all the clever here.
I forgive you.
You’re entirely too kind.
Hate the “reply all” option….Wish my computer sensed a “reply all” message and responded with “take offline”.
I am truly stunned by the sheer volume of people who think their quips are so fucking clever they must be shared with the world… if you’re witticisms are that profound just write a blog like the rest of us vain people.
Went all in on pocket bullets once, got beat down by pocket deuces and a deuce on the river. Such a short and sad, sad evening.
I snarfed my Fresca at the “fuckmento” comment (two expensive button-downs and a Schoolhouse Rugby jersey come to mind.)
Oh, and @ 66, the Seether version of Careless Whisper? Not too shabby at all.
This is why playing poker with shitty players can sometimes be overrated.
No bonus round? That’s when I’m on FIRE!!!
Ya know… I meant to ask for Final Round Answers to be left in the comment section, but I forgot.
Very, very cleverly done. I’m almost certain that I intoxitipated on Sunday night. That’s another clue, by the way… when you’re “almost” certain.
Thanks, and that is certainly a big clue.
Brilliant! I may have to quote you on the Bacchus Hierarchy of Needs. I knew it existed, just never knew its name.
Thanks and quote at will – just glad I can help.
my best fuckmento was a silver dollar that stuck to his butt and my hand found it in the moment. i kid you not. it must have fell out of his pocket as clothing was shed and then, well…stuck to his butt cheek. i still have that coin in my jewelry box.
Oh my god, I’ve been looking for that!
I’m enthralled by the way in which you present your weekend… awesome!
Thanks much – although I must admit that it probably reads far more interesting than it was.
i’ve spent three days-ish trying to come up with comment that was as clever as your post…but…(and this may or may not be a side effect of the Bacchus Hierarchy of Needs) i’m gonna just have to go with…
…well done my dear..well done…
xoxo
thank you, and I must admit that stumping you is its own reward.
