I approve

Since there seems to be a trend of debunking the negative for the positive here on HBT lately, figured I'd try my hand at it. Maybe I'll soften my image.

* The Nook. Maybe the kindle fire too, but I dont have one of those. I love my nook and I've read just about every book of the Dresden Files.. plus the battery life is impressive.

* Free refills on coffee... proving that America is still a civilized nation.

* People walking a pitbull and a small dog like a cocker spaniel on the same leash. How can that not make you smile?

* Women with Irish accents. Its absolute witchcraft. She'd have to have a face like a waffleiron to not be attractive with an Irish accent.

* Monsters Inc. Still a classic.

* Thunderstorms. Always liked them, just dont like being in a car during one.

* Sundresses and flip-flops. Not only do ladies in the summer look unbelievably cute in such attire but its practical and functional.

* Landships. Just saw a documentary the other day on people who are living in an almost completely sustainable fashion. My inner hippy smiles.

* Epic Lloyd.

* Farts. I'm 33 years old and farts are still very funny.

* Stock. I love the idea that stuff you would normally throw away can be boiled to make stock. I once proposed a stock-making party amongst friends, but my wife (and my friends) were dubious.

This is me. We have a Sheltie and a "Lab mix" that appears to have some pit in her, especially in the face. Funny thing is, when I walk them, the mix is pretty chill, but the Sheltie is the one going apes**t at passing people/dogs/large trucks/children on bikes.

Just the other day a little girl broke away from her mom and toddled at top speed towards a spaniel on a leash. I'm not thrilled that the mom didnt seem to care that her daughter was charging at a stranger dog (could have ended terribly) but the spaniel reacted but licking the bejoobus out of the kid's face.

Even I'm not an ogre.

* it is now socially acceptable (and common) for chics to wear yoga pants outside of the yoga parlor

That's the real reason Al-Qeada hates us.

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Hear hear on that one.

Also, now that we are pointing out our myriad perversions, the continuing trend of women with long hair shaving one side.

... DAILY PUPPIES!

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I can get with you on this one, maybe because it makes me think of Skrillex. Feel free to change my mind with pics though.

I also approve of any kind of dress any woman wants to wear any time of year

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Setup: How do you know you are suffering from Civil War Reenactor's Burn-out?
Punchline: You see a woman in a bikini and think "man, I wonder what she'd look like in a hoop-skirt"

 

[GrogNerd]

big week for those reenactors

One of the better examples... Anya from Project Runway. Don't look at me like that, we have a rule in my house, if you want me to watch the show I get to comment on how hot the designers and models are.

I prefer the crannies to the nooks. It's easier to poke a crannie.

I do, however, agree with women in sundresses and flip-flops serving coffee refills with an Irish accent. But, really, how often does one get that? Only improved when said sundress is so shear that you can make out the pattern on her under clothes.

All I see is Mullet, teeth, dream catchers, and a hint of cleavage.

Maybe she belongs in that other thread.

Say it ain't so.

She's cute and all (actually looks like a girl I knew in college), but I still wouldn't say the hair adds anything.

I approve of flip-flops on other people. I disapprove of having to wear a cheap pair because my nice sandals broke and I can't afford to replace them.

I also approve of my daughter beating a boy with her flip-flop after he called her stupid. She's part Puerto Rican, I think it's genetic.

I approve of riding the train to work. I thought it would be a pain because it doubles my commute time. But now when I drive it, the drive seems like it takes forever.

Finally, I approve of Sade. She is still smoking hot.

If it weren't for a couple items I think you'd be my polar opposite.


> Have the Kindle Fire x3-4. Not a terrible device for the price. Even better if you root it but you lose the benefits of the Prime membership we have.

< Could go my entire life with Coffee not existing and be perfectly happy.

< I like dogs in general. Type and silliness doesn't really make too much difference to me. It's a shame my entire household is allergic other than me although they're doing well with their new poodle.

< Accents never did it for me. No issue with Irish or otherwise but attractive is attractive. Then again, I can't shake the perception of Penelope Cruz as a crackwhore so maybe I'm more of a stickler than I thought.

< Fell asleep in Monsters Inc. Went to Monsters U this weekend and didn't really care for it either.

< I actually like being in a car in a thunderstorm so long as it isn't coming down so hard that I cannot see. Could be just as happy in a room with windows on all sides with a sunroof though.

< Tolerate sundresses. Despise flipflops.

= Landships. I have no inner hippy but the science of it is interesting.

> Enjoy the occasional ERBoH clip. The guys at work enjoy it far more though. /shrug

> Farts. Agreed, usually. Some are just too brutal to be funny though

= Have never met anyone as fascinated by stock as you but if beer would be present I'm not sure where it could go wrong.
