Yes, Dan is showing remarkable forbearance in not calling me a troll all the time.

One of my favorite childhood dishes when we weren't having ewwy stir fry or that nasty spicy stew was TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE. WITH BREAD CRUMBS ON TOP.

NOW WHO'S FUCKING MIDWESTERN, SON

Do you have any idea how long it took me to post that? Stupid nu-poxy-fule...

― dan m, Monday, 26 February 2007 23:27 (seventeen years ago) link

And what a stunning impact that post had!

― kenan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 02:36 (seventeen years ago) link

sorry. I am able to log in from home now, and I got overexcited.

― kenan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 02:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Ugh. "Authentic food" is probably one of my least favorite Internet discussion topics.

― n/a, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 11:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Mine is the weather!

― Jeff, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 12:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Followed closely by grammar.

― Jeff, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 13:20 (seventeen years ago) link

It sure looks like an authentic Chicago winter morning out there, snowy and cold! Say, I think I will have an authentic Chicago hot dog for lunch, with NO KETCHUP! LOL!

I am going to vote against Daley today. I don't know who I'm voting FOR, since it won't matter since that person won't win, but I am not going to vote for him. He didn't even bother to campaign. I do not respond well to having my vote or my anything taken for granted.

Yes, I read that Reader article and yes, it worked on me.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 13:38 (seventeen years ago) link

I am also going to vote against my alderman for the same reason. He's a fat cat who bleaches his teeth too much.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 13:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes, I read that Reader article and yes, it worked on me.

ME TOO!

The only time I vote is if I have done my own research into each person running. This is not the case this time.

― Jeff, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait, that did sound right. I meant to say, I haven't done any research, so I will not vote.

― Jeff, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait, that did sound right.

Keep plugging away at it, Tiger.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Shut up. I hate you.

― Jeff, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:17 (seventeen years ago) link

HUGGLEZ 2 U!!! LOL!!

― Jesse, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:21 (seventeen years ago) link

killfiled

― Jeff, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:26 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm not voting either.

I am protesting Daley by not eating any girl scout cookies today. I swear I probably ate about 50 yesterday. It's a hunger strike of sorts. I'm goin' hunnngry... goin' hunggryyy... YEAAAAHHHH!!!!

― KitCat, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:27 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm a busy man, here to read your entertaining posts. So far you have only a post. Keep going! (I've been getting ready to face my day.)

― Jesse, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 14:57 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm eating lentils! And having a headache! I've been drinking five nights in a row and have a work dinner tonight so make that six! I have GOT to do work today.

― Laurel, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:00 (seventeen years ago) link

Off to shower. Shower my smooth, young, supple body, lathering and caressing every dimple and cubby.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Off to work. Work my smooth--nevermind.

― Jesse, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Wrong crowd, Jesse.

― Laurel, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:18 (seventeen years ago) link

hi.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:20 (seventeen years ago) link

Hi. Welcome back. Are you a happy camper these days?

― KitCat, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:31 (seventeen years ago) link

no. but at least i have this message board back.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:32 (seventeen years ago) link

You know what would be AWESOME? Getting my review/raise that was supposed to happen a month ago.

Hey, guess what, Kev. I know your last trip there wasn't the best, but I'm going to Memphis the weekend after this one to surprise my mom for her bday. My middle sis is coming too. Temps in the 60s and 70s, AHOY! It will be a really quick turn around (getting there 9am Saturday and coming back 1:30 Monday) but I'm super excited about it.

I know! I saw that on their page.

― KitCat, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:41 (seventeen years ago) link

I guess it's just as well though, because I need to pack in all that quality mom time, especially it being her birthday and all.

― KitCat, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:43 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm really in a late to bed/late to work groove. I've got to tighten up, folks.

― Jordan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Me too! (though my 'late to work' means about 1-5 minutes late, but I'm used to being @ 20 minutes early)

― KitCat, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:50 (seventeen years ago) link

How was the vet visit?

― KitCat, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:50 (seventeen years ago) link

I got to work an hour later than I usually do, but I'll have a new boss/office in a week it's not like it matters much.

Vet was good, I made an appointment to have her little ovaries + uterus removed in a week. Also she apparently has a very slight heart murmur, but is otherwise very healthy.

Her = Kitka, not the vet

― Jordan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:56 (seventeen years ago) link

not to throw a wrench in the works here, and not to apoil some good daley-hatin, but look who he's running against. next to this bunch of choads, daley is still sent from heaven. that reader article is so one-sided it's not funny.

― kenan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:57 (seventeen years ago) link

in fact, it's in hysterics, running around and banging pots and pans. you know you're in trouble when an article about politics starts with "YEARS AGO I had a neighbor whose husband used to beat the crap out of her."

Oh good.

― kenan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:58 (seventeen years ago) link

"YEARS AGO I had a neighbor whose husband used to beat the crap out of her...

... but she's dead now.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 15:59 (seventeen years ago) link

hey, funny story... years ago...

― kenan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:01 (seventeen years ago) link

ATTN JAYMC

1) I heard Go West on the radio yesterday (not doing the Bobby Caldwell song unfort.)

2) You're right, Monica Keena is off the chain.

― Jordan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Nice.

They have started keeping track of our rate here at work. I'm supposed to edit 600 words/hour, and I just found that last week it came out to about 200 w/h. Eek. I might not be posting as much in the future.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:10 (seventeen years ago) link

I mean, the show is amusing enough, and her character is kind of ill-defined, but she's so cute I can hardly look at her.

― Jordan, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:20 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't know what they're trying to do with her character in the first episode. That "OMG I'm freaking out" thing she does never really pops up again, except maybe in the episode where she's stressed out and eats too many snacks.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:22 (seventeen years ago) link

i didn't think she was that attractive and i swear i'm not just being contrary here.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:23 (seventeen years ago) link

No, that makes sense. I think you probably like "hot" women.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:26 (seventeen years ago) link

no john, i only have a thing for really fugly women. stumps and boils and extra appendages and shit.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:27 (seventeen years ago) link

He likes moon-faced Laurie Anderson, dude! HI DERE SPREDSHEET.

― Laurel, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 16:27 (seventeen years ago) link

oh shit yes, that pic of a young laurie anderson made me swoon.
