There were several moments in that film that made me cry with laughter, although one portion was cringeworthy and unnecessary. The middle lady reminded me of Tony Soprano’s mom.

Just between us and the lamppost, for the first time in over 40 years tried some at our weekly gathering last Saturday. Stuff never did anything for me back when, and those passing it around kept insisting “it’s nothing like what you smoked forty years ago, this is much, much better and more potent.” That from the fellow who grows it for a living.
So I threw caution to the winds just this once (but had to learn how to use the electronic gizmo they were passing around). Result? Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Same as always.

@PsiFighter37: Discussion in an earlier thread about how refusing to air a presidential speech began with Reagan and has continued through all the subsequent presidents. They aren’t picking on President Obama in this regard. It seems really stupid on the networks’ part, though, since immigration is a huge issue in a certain growing and coveted demographic. Way to piss them off, networks.

@dance around in your bones: Are you insane? Even a little?
Suzanne
@PsiFighter37: I am not sure that the networks not showing the speech is due to racism. Since more cable news outlets have become a thing, they’ve stopped showing a lot—including some of Shrub’s speeches, from what I understand.
I think this is due more to the fact that our society has become a total fail parade of fucking idiots who think that watching reruns of Honey Boo Boo is more worthwhile than having any knowledge of public affairs. All those people who didn’t vote in this last election have VERY IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO, such as getting stoned on a weeknight.

Really good sale today at Macy’s.
Have needed a new bathrobe for like forever, but sticker shock kept delaying my getting one ($100 – or more – for a bathrobe? Give me a break.). Snagged one today for twenty-seven bucks.
Ditto a 12-pc set of nice saucepans, saute pan and a medium stockpot with glass lids, plus a few kitchen tools included. All made of decent gauge stainless steel, so can go into the oven if necessary. On special for $30, marked down from $120.
Drawback was waiting on line at the register for 57 minutes. The fault of that lay primarily with the customer buying somewhere around two grand’s worth of on-sale sheets and pillows*, who (of course) had both credit card and check problems and spent an inordinate amount of time cajoling whoever was on the other end of the phone to allow the charge. Lucky it was the bedding department, as there was a display bed on which I could sit and take the weight off the not so good leg.
*Didn’t inquire, but guessing she runs or is starting an unregulated B&B.

Given that this seems to have been happening since at least Reagan, I think you’re blaming the victims in this case. If the media decides that public affairs are less important than a “Honey Boo Boo” rerun, who are viewers to argue with them?

@efgoldman: I get it, but when everyone from politicians to advertisers to TV networks are racing to get Latinos to pay attention to them, vote for them, spend money on their product, you’d think that when the President is going to announce something that will have a huge impact on that demographic they’d decide to air the speech.
Suzanne
@Mnemosyne: At least one network would show it if enough people complained about missing a speech, just like how some stores are resolutely remaining closed this year on Thanksgiving after hearing enough people complain about not letting their employees spend the day with their families. One of the major networks would also show it if the cable networks got what they judged to be high enough ratings. But people have other shit to do.

They are? Which stores are those?

@redshirt: You know, that’s a damn good theory.
Everyone I have known is at leasta little bit crazy, and a few have been nuckin futs.
Ok – here’s a story….I had a girlfriend who had an abusive boyfriend, and she wanted me to drive her over to his place so she could ‘talk’ to him. I said – well, ok, but I’m keeping the truck running, and you’re not rolling the window down more than an inch, WHY I agreed to this I’ll never know.
So we get there, they start arguing through the window, and he picks up a giant rock and throws it at the windshield, yelling “You want WAR, baby!! You GOT war!!”
So I burn on the gas pedal and get us the hell out of there, and when we stop at a gas station a bit later, she says “Well, at least I know how he feels, right?”
I just about fucking died. She actually died later in the hospital after a heart valve replacement, as her ‘boyfriend’ was bringing her cokane haha into her room,.She actually got busted by her docs, who said “Are you TRYING to kill yourself??!!”
I could not look at her open coffin at the funeral. Her parents had dressed her up like a hooker, and she was a hippie.- I had to go cry in the grotto for people who can’t handle funerals.
Jeezs, I’m a bed of roses tonight, aren’t I ??

You can’t bring alcohol into funeral homes in Illinois (or, at least, most of the decent ones don’t let you). That’s why my father-in-law picked the funeral home across the street from his favorite bar.
My dad didn’t want a funeral or anything formal, so we rented a picnic pavilion in a really nice park on a sunny day in August and had food and booze (well, wine and beer). While my brother’s friend the Jesuit priest was doing his eulogy, some little kid was riding his bike around in the background screaming his lungs out. Pop would have loved it.
Weird but true — when the priest read his eulogy, he read out a particular poem. We all looked at each other, and afterwards I went up to him and said, “Did you see the prayer card?” Because he had picked the exact same poem we had.

Well, an earlier crazy ‘boyfriend’ told me a long story one night about how a very famous song was written about his girlfriend – it was quite long and involved and it made me very scared for her.

@dance around in your bones:
We’re (part) Irish, so the question after any wake or funeral is, Where’s the afterparty? Assuming the wake doesn’t turn into a party itself, which is not unusual.
Story from my father-in-law’s wake: the family (including his five brothers and their wives) all gathered in a circle to do a prayer at the end of the day. The brother who’s really involved in the church (Catholic, of course) is picked to do the prayer, but he keeps forgetting the words and his wife has to prompt him.
After a few minutes of this, a voice from the back of the crowd says, “Amen!” The uncle stumbles through another line, but another person says, “Amen!” So, yes, my father-in-law’s brother was heckled during his prayer at my father-in-law’s wake. And it was funny as hell.
(My in-laws are about 90 percent Irish, so they really don’t take this whole funeral stuff seriously. It’s a time to remember the person and tell funny stories about them, not to stand around being sad.)

Or maybe I should tell you about the time we got stranded in Afghanistan aft6er some soldiers stole all our shit, including my NIKON! and we even had to go to town the next day to extract some $$ somehow to pay the bastardos off.
Oddly enough, they let us keep the hash we were smuggling put of Herat and we stashed it in a brick furnace on the way to Kabul. A nice family put us up all winter in their hotel with the promise that we’d pay them when the fucking $$ came in – which it did.
I used to squat in the kitchen with the women who cooked, and learned a lot about cooking Afghan food. Plus I was only about 2 years older than their daughter Fazila, so we became fast friends.

@dance around in your bones: The fountain story was in Kitzbuhel, Austria. Amsterdam was different. I went to London for a term during my junior year in college. My college maintains a small London campus. The way a London term is set up allows a ten day break in the middle of the term. I resolved to do Paris/Munich/Amsterdam. Paris was Paris; I will always love it. Munich was conversations about the UK miners strike with a demented Irish guy who was really cool and the lovely Swiss girl. After that, I got on the train to A-dam. Once I got there, I walked out of the Central Station and was approached by a dude. The dude asked my if I was looking for a place to stay. I very carefully answered, “I am looking for a youth hostel, yes.” He said, “What would you say if I offered you a place to stay for free?” Based on my expression, he said, ” You are a university student, yes? You think there is a catch? There is. I am bisexual.” I said that I was straight. He then said he could offer me money. I Told him that I was actually quite well off and wandered away. I walked into Bob’s Youth Hostel, and, as I entered a woman shouted out my name and ran across the room to give me a hug. Every other guy in the place stared daggers at me. She was a recent graduate of my school, doing a backpacking trip through Europe. It should be understood that her dad was a Chicago lawyer who invested some money in his friend Hugh’s new magazine in the mid-50s and then married one of the earliest girls in the mag. the girl in A-dam was one of the most beautiful women I have ever met. So anyway we catch up on college gossip and go to sleep. The next day we went out together and stopped eventually in a coffee shop. We drank beers and a brownies and some dude started passing Bob Marley sized spliffs around (so says my memory). The girl the helps get me to the train station so I can catch the boat train to London. On the boat, there was a theater showing Risky Business. To this day, I can call up a distinct memory of having been in that movie. The train deposited me in in central London just as the bankers were showing up for work.

Being an equal in A-dam meant a lot to me at the time aside from the “who the fuck is he?” from the dudes at Bob’s.
