I learned NightHawk is a cheap ******* or a teetotaler or both.

It's both. I am notorious for analyzing costs 16 different ways before I buy much of anything, even when I can easily afford it. I am a substantially nicer and younger version of Marge Schott.
Did you just admit you are a racist? I think I learned something new today...

This is where the nicer part comes into play. I was going for the cheap factor. I suppose I should have also said non-racist and slightly less crazy.
 
* Defriending someone whom you were close to for a very long time was a lot harder than I thought.

* The surest way to get someone to stop asking for money is to ask him or her for money.

* You can't fix stupid.

That people actually spend more than $50 per person on a meal occasionally. I did not think that was possible at 99 percent of restaurants.

You obviously don't live anywhere near me.

But the prices around here are why I try to time going to the bathroom right before the check comes and leave Ace with nothing to do but pay it.

That only worked twice. I lifted your wallet last time and paid with your card.

But did you try to pay with gold?
:D

You know, I think the thing I love the most about this site is that I have made people think I live in this Scrooge McDuck cottage with gold bars stacked floor to ceiling.

WTF is Gary's?

The other site. I have no idea why he calls it Gary's. That information could be something new I learn today.

Guessing he thinks this place is Cheers and the other site is Gary's Old Town Tavern.

That's what he's going for?

I thought both sides had already agreed that they're Shelbyville to our Spingfield.

If that's changed, I think new names should be opened up for debate before Gary's is chosen at random.

Maybe they're the 8063rd and we're the 4077th.

Any other nominations?
 
I learned today that switching from days to nights in one day isn't going to be easy.

I was thinking more of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" Disney ride with overflowing treasure chests, "Yo Ho Ho" music, and half-naked harlots running hysterically through your house.
 
I hate when a witty post of mine ends up as the last post on a page.

I'm thinking about deleting, dropping t_b_f's post to that slot and re-posting.

C'mon. The 8063rd? That's a great reference. It should have sparked loads of hilarious responses.

But now, it's buried at the bottom of the last page.

I'm so ****ing bitter right now.
 
I learned that YankeeFan isn't half as funny as he thinks he is, no matter where his posts drop.
 
British Parliament has legalized a two-thirds pint -- 19.2 fluid ounces -- as a serving-size innovation to boost a pub industry that is actually sagging. Twenty-five pubs close a week, which is unbelievable.

Eh, as long as I make myself laugh. At the end of the day, that's the only audience I really care about.

I mean, it would be great if I had a great reference like the Cleveland Plain Dealer to fall back on when you need a laugh.

But, you play the hand you're dealt.

Just yanking your chain. It was a good, though dated, comparison. And I hate when your posts land at the end of the page too.
