The Dysfunctional-Palooza Obnoxious Masshole BS Thread

Might try Purple power cleaner/ degreaser. It is pretty brutal on junk and rust. Just don't use it on aluminium.

 

[DakotaRules]

I'll have to try that too for my burners.

I've got some CLR kicking around, I'll start with a soak in that and then try and find something to clean out the orifices. I hear porn stars use baby wipes for that purpose.

Porn stars soak it in CLR when polish it with baby wipes?

Farkin' A !

 

[the_bird]

.... I've seen a couple that could probably use it.

El Tiante screwed again by the HOF voters.

You boys are still welcome to crash at the house, but it's looking more and more like it's going to be the current house. Just an extra mile or so of hoofin' it to Greylock.

We've been negotiating back and forth, hearing from our agent today that they want to look at some more houses. So, we may have lost them.

I'm not sure how smart they are. My house is basically all brand new. Most of the houses I've been looking at in the $200k price range, quite frankly are ****boxes. He doesn't want to do any work, but I haven't seen a place that needs less work than mine. I think he wants a little more land, which I get.

I don't know, just frustrated. We're still only about a month into the selling process, I know it's early but I was hoping that pricing the house aggressively would get it done. We've gone below what we deemed our "drop dead" price point in negotiations. I've gotten the chimney repaired, as he requested (had to be done, anyway).

Just have to get myself mentally prepared for not moving until the spring, which frankly is probably not the end of the world. Just have to stop thinking about the gorgeous new place we're so damn close to owning.

That's too bad, Jay,but it only means a better opportunity will come along for you later.

And when D'bag comes back in a month don't take less than you want. You don't HAVE to move, you would like to. Get your price.

 

[the_bird]

Yeah, I know, dude. I still think it'll all happen, it's just going to take a lot longer than we were hoping. I just worry because I know a LOT of houses around here have been on the market a LONG time (hell, the place we're buying was originally listed a year and a half ago, at a LOT more money that we agreed on).

And if we lose it... we'll find something else that's got some land and maybe needs a little work, and I'll make THAT into my ideal. I've long referred to our current place as my "practice house"; when I bought it, the only tools I owned were a hammer, some screwdrivers, and a 9V rechargeable drill.

Replaced 100 feet of beer line last night... Good times, good times

Preparing for the debauchery tomorrow?

 

[Cape Brewing]

yup...

I keep up on cleaning the lines but those lines had been in for a couple of years. I figured it was time.... and the bash tomorrow night was as good a reason as any to run the new ones. I thought it was going to be a total nightmare... and it didn't start off well... but then everything fell into place and it wasn't that bad.

My line-up:

IPA
Big Hoppy Belgian
Imperial Peach Wit
Dunkel
Irish Red
Smoked Porter

Then it sounds like we'll have at least three other kegs from the club.... so.. 9-10 beers on tap.

I have to get the 30 pounds of beef tenderloin today sometime so I can cake them in sea salt overnight. I have tomorrow off to just clean and get the house ship-shape.

 

[bluemoose]

Wish I lived closer (not in Mass though). Sounds like you put on one hell of a party.

 

[Cape Brewing]

This is our "reserved and formal" holiday party. The NIHFC is the big one. Oh, and then there's PTN's cute little, "come brew in my driveway" thing.

 

[paulthenurse]

So long as you chug-a-lug a gallon of vancomycin before you arrive, wear a full body condom and a helmet with a visor club parties are a blast.

I have to miss this one, have to go to the wife's boss's party. The other option was going to cheer on Colby's curling team. You gotta see Colby wield that broom, it's remarkable!


(If I sound jealous that's just a coincidence.)

 

[Cape Brewing]

Oh stop... I don't think there was ANY nudity at all this year at the NIHFC (kind of pathetic really). That probably has something to do with Dakota bringing his parents. "WHOOOOO!!!!!! Let's all get NAK.... whoops... no.. Dakota is sittin' with his mom. That would just be awkward"


This summer...

 

[DakotaRules]

Like my mom was a deterrent for the shirtless, pasty, fuzz ball, cape running around.

 

[Cape Brewing]

I would have put a shirt on but she kept asking me not to.

true story

 

[DakotaRules]

I forgot, she wanted my father to know what perfection was!

 

[the_bird]

Wow, it's getting a little awkward in here.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Wait til tomorrow night! Dakota already said he was "spending the night".

 

[the_bird]

Wait, is his mom going, too? Is she hot?

 

[paulthenurse]

Like my mom was a deterrent for the shirtless, pasty, fuzz ball, cape running around.

Jeezuz, I've spent five months trying to forget that sight. I'm also a chubby, balding, pasty white goober, (with a fairly nice rack if you believe the_bird) but I've got the common decency to keep my shirt on. God damn, that was a terrible sight!

 

[Cape Brewing]

Your jealously of my God-like pecs and abs sickens me.

 

[DakotaRules]

Wait, is his mom going, too? Is she hot?

No! She's not hot.

 

[Cape Brewing]

C'mon.... don't sell her short... she's got that certain somethin'.

 

[bob1852]

Like my mom was a deterrent for the shirtless, pasty, fuzz ball, cape running around.

Haha. I can totally picture Cape rolling top-down in his camero at NHC in San Diego; shirtless; sucking in pollen, pollution and smog; while the wind blew through what's left of his hair.

 

[the_bird]

Ooooh, do we have a MILF here?

C'mon, post some pics of your mom in the Boneyard. I'm sure Tx would still give you a lifetime membership.

 

[Cape Brewing]

CAMARO?!?!?!?

WTF AZ??? After I gave you a special deal on your peice of paper, letting you use it as your avatar and everything at no extra cost!!?

BTW... where's my $100?

Camaro!??! PFFT... that ride at the NHC was sweeeeeetness. Soper's boy in that bah was even hittin' on me. Luckily Soper made the whole "two-time" promise and saved me from having to break the poor guys heart. "Sorry Soper's boy... this man is alllll about the ladies... like Dakota's mom."

 

[bob1852]

oops, 'vette?

 

[paulthenurse]

The HumVee.

The PigCowLinguicaEmmuRhinasaurusDuckHeno

The Rent-a-Vette at the NHC

The "90% ABV Barley Ice Brandy" fiasco.

The 100 feet of beer lines.

Is there ANY doubt that Cape has an incredibly small 'Little Cape?'
