Happy Birthday!

My blog was born on the same day as my brother. But in different years. Cause they’ didn’t have blogs in ‘82. Well, they sort of did, but they were called journals, and you didn’t put them up in a public place for everybody to read. Well, I guess Martin Luther sort of put up the first blog post when he nailed his 95 theses to the church door at Wittenburg in 1517. But that has nothing to do with my post about poop.

But first let’s get this happy crappy blogiversary anniversiblog blogersaniverseray blogtherday birgothday boggerdothday daggoggerbayger shmeltronifficate scabbleactrix frundoo out of the way.

Happy birthday to blog! Let’s try not to be as shitty this year! No? Okay then!*

Now down to some real birthday stuff. This story is part of my gift to my brother. I will be editing his comments as I see fit.

When I was about 3 or 4 years old, my brother would have been on the verge of 2 or so. My mom had us all in the bathtub for a good scrubbin’ because we were filthy kids. We had our toys in there with us, and all was right with the world. Well, at least all was right with the world with me. My little brother must have decided that he needed more toys because out of nowhere appeared two glistening turds floating in the water of the bathtub.

As he reached for his own feces I leapt from the bathtub and let out a blood-curdling scream. I knew that I needed to make as much space between that ass-chocolate and my body as quickly as I possibly could. I tried to scrambled out of the bathtub, but I was naked and wet, and my parents had yelled at us before for spilling water all over the bathroom floor. Instead I clamored onto the two outcroppings at the top of the bathtub where the tub met the wall. I had my feet planted and my arms spread to balance myself.

Meanwhile my little brother sat happily in the tub playing Dookie Boat Commander. He was apparently amused at the reaction it got out of me because he continued to show no revulsion at the idea that he was playing with two pieces of stinkfruit that he had just birthed.

My mom eventually came and rescued me, but I’m not sure what ever happened to the little turd factory. What of it broseph? Were you sad when Mom made you flush your friends?

*The blog was actually born on the 27th, but I don’t blog on the weekends.

There IS such a thing as a free lunch

My coworker was at a restaurant a while ago, and on the way out he noticed a box by the door that said “DROP IN YOUR BUSINESS CARD AND BE ENTERED TO WIN A FREE LUNCH”. What he failed to notice was the fine print that said he would have to sit through a brief seminar by the company that sponsors the lunch. In this case it was a subsidiary company of American Express.

So the guy thows his speil at us, and it was kinda low pressure, but also a very jargon-laden, scare-tactic’ed, and overhyped presentation. For example he was all, “You have to diversify your portfolio into mutuals, 401ks, 403b, Roth’s, and be sure you have enough 1099 dividend left over to capitalize on your tax-diversified gains.” Which is pretty much bullshit because everybody knows that you don’t need any 1099 to capitilize on anything.

Anyway, once he was done talking we got to have our free buffet lunch. Or, as my dad would like to say, line up at the trough and strap the feedbag on. So that’s what we did.

I had a huge plate of nachos for lunch because I’m 24, and I own a house, and if I want to have nachos for lunch, I damn well am going to have nachos. You just wish you had nachos for lunch. Suckers. I also had some bbq chicken and some fried fish. I can feel the oil coating my bowels as we speak. It’l be no time before I’m high-tailing it to the bathroom.

Which reminds me. I was in the bathroom the other day, *ahem* in the stall,and some guy wandered in to pee, and he started talking to himself. He was like, “Oh mommy. Oh mommy. Ohmommyohmommyohmommymommymommymommymommymommy momMYMOMMYMOMMYMOMMYMOMMY!” Then it sounded like someone opened up a firehose into a five gallon bucket. I imagine the guy had at UTI or STD or something, but it was weird either way. Mommy? Who says that?

This is my BOOMSTICK!

This morning I was eating my cereal and watching the new to get the weather and the traffic report before the local station switched back to “Good Morning Dumb-dumbs” with Matt “Doucheiest douche that ever douched” Lauer and Katie “I’m still pretty right? Right? RIGHT?!” Couric.

Trying to not subject myself to what would certainly amount to a planetary pile of crap, I lazily flipped the channel up one station.

Ooh. Lucky me. I get to catch the end of a “Coach” rerun. Everybody remember “Coach”? Yeah, I thought it sucked when I was 7 and my brain was already mush from 6.5 years of solid TV watching.

So, I let the show finish out as I dug into the rest of my cereal. A few commercials went by as I was drinking the milk out of the bottom of the bowl, but when I lowered the bowl I noticed the screen had gone to a wide shot of the Earth. The I heard the familiar music and saw the “Universal” logo spinning toward the camera.

I should probably say, at this point, that I really really love watching movies. Nothing is more exciting to me than seeing the studio logo float up on screen before everything goes black and the titles start. In this case the only title was “A Dino De Laurentiis Production”.

“I know that name,” I thought to myself.

As the movie started I saw an even more familiar scene of shackled ankles trudging across a sandy surface. The camera panned halfway up the subject’s frame before I realized I was now watching “Army of Darkness”.

Shit. ‘Cause now I’m going to be late for work.

It was totally worth it though, because I haven’t watched Army of Darkness from the very beginning for about 2 years, so I got to watch all the cool stuff I had forgotten about. And it was poorly edited for curse words. Thanks USA network!

I need your help UPDATED

Zenchick thinks I’m the “prototype” for metrosexuality. I think that I could not be further from it.

[05:00] zen2967: p.s. you missed a very funny quiz at Ze Mean Bean: textureslut trying to ascertain if Jason is metrosexual
[05:01] AnonCoworker: of course he is
[05:01] zen2967: who knew?
[05:01] zen2967: You I would have pegged for it
[05:01] AnonCoworker: me, a metro?
[05:02] zen2967: honey
[05:02] zen2967: PU-LEAZE
[05:02] AnonCoworker: you did see what i was wearing yesterday, right?
[05:02] zen2967: didn’t pay attention, why?
[05:02] zen2967: you are the prototype for metro
[05:02] zen2967: including talking about which male celebs you’d like to bone
[05:03] AnonCoworker: a friggin giveaway tshirt and self-made cutoff shorts does not a metrosexual make.

I need you to leave questions for me to answer in the comments to ascertain my metrosexuality, or lack thereof. (i.e. How much hair gel do I use on a daily basis?) I’ll post the answers next. Thanks,

ACW

UPDATE: I’m going to leave this post up in the front spot for the rest of the day. I’ll be putting up other posts below this one as well. Keep adding questions as you think of them. Thanks.

Ruminating

I must come off as a total potty-mouthed, irreverent, blasphemous, perv sometimes. What with all my talk about necrophilia, the Baby Jeebus, and the near constant use of swear-words, I would have no doubt that many of you see me as a freakish sideshow of filth. Some of you come close enough to laugh, while others keep their distance and observe from afar. No one would let me near their daughter, or son, for that matter, much less any other member of the family.

I am what I am. I make no apologies for the way I write, or for the drivel that drips from my fingertips and coats the keyboard with a thick sludge of poorly executed metaphors. At the same time, I want people to enjoy my site. I couldn’t care less if people like me, but I do want the to leave my site a little bit less stuck up than they were before. Not that you’re all stuck up. You’re just, ya’know, kinda titchy. I’ll let you figure out what that means.

I don’t have any particular reason to hide my identity other than it would greatly reduce the things I could blog about, and blogging is an outlet for me. I like to be able to go on at varying length about things that are probably only of interest to me. I try to make it interesting for everyone else, and better myself as a writer, but sometimes I fall short. Not like I’m trying to feed myself by making you people laugh, but it’s nice to get a comment from time to time saying that I tickled you. Not in the Michael Jackson way, but in the “made amused through the use of storytelling device” way.

I’d like to make some money off of this crazy gig, don’t get me wrong, but I’ve resisted ad programs or other things like that because I didn’t want this to be a place where you had to feel like a consumer. I wanted it to be like an ongoing electronic conversation. I think I’m a nice guy. We can chat. I can let the curse words and pseudo-fetishist comments go for a post or two. I can be civil.

But it’s no fun. For me. I guess part of it is about the shock value, but part of it is also about being able to write the word, “Penis” on the internet. Part of it is writing something that if I saw would make me laugh out loud. That’s the goal here.

Hopefully this rumination has been illuminating to you. It’s just made me more confused.

I forgot to mention…

After a few beers things seem to make sense that wouldn’t normally make sense. For example, I was talking to Zenchick when I was discussing people having sex with dead animals, and I had already expressed my disgust for animals being boned from life into the hereafter, and Zenchick was like, “Yeah, that’s gross.” And then I said, “But if someone has sex with animals that are recently dead frequently enough, at some point one of them will come back to life. I have no problem with someone sexing an animal back to life.”

And Zenchick wanted to know how frequently you could sex a recently dead animal back to life and I said, “Probably one in every hundred thousand animals will come back to life if you bone them long enough if shortly after the animal has died.”

Anyone want to try and falsify my hypothesis? I’d do it but I think it’s gross.

My limit

I’m a person of few taboos, and though I may not participate in many of the acts that others would call taboo, I frequently find no reason why anyone should not be allowed to do something if it doesn’t harm their fellow human.

Wanna smoke pot? Go for it. Wanna be killed and eaten by a friend? Have a blast.

But last night I found out where I draw the line.

Somebody, I believe, had been jokingly talking about having sex with a shaved baboon that was also boneless. Somebody may have to fill me in on this one because I came in in the middle of the conversation. We were all joking around about it and I mentioned that I have no problem with people having sex with animals if that’s what they want to do, and they do it with the health of the animal in mind. So no sadism against the chicken, or putting cigarettes out on the sheep. Know what I mean? Then somebody brought up my necrophilia conversation from the last happy hour and I said that I had even less of a problem with people having sex with dead animals because that way you don’t even have to worry about the animal being treated humanely, because it’s dead.

Then somebody said something about having sex with an animal until it died, and I was repulsed. Everyone looked at me in shock and said, “So THAT’S what it takes to go to far for you?”

I just don’t like the idea of an animal being killed in that manner. Gives me the heebies AND the jeebies.

I broke my cat

Last night ACWF and I were finishing up the first coat of paint in the kitchen, which is to say that I was finishing up the first coat of paint in the kitchen in all the places ACWF couldn’t reach (walls above cabinets, etc) that I had forgotten to do last night.

As I was stepping off the chair to readjust it so as to better reach a particularly difficult spot in the back, upper, corner of the kitchen, I stepped directly on a furry foreleg that had been bolting from the dining room to the living room through the kitchen for no particular reason for the 700th time that evening.

Once I stepped off of Sherlock he hobbled into a standing position and then hobbled off toward the living room to continue to play. He kept he hurt leg bent into his body while he rolled around on the floor, jumped onto and off of the love seat, andgenerally continued with his kitten-like mayhem.

Every now and then he would stop, look in our genreal direction, and howl a squeaky howl to let us know that he was in terrible pain, and then he’d go back to playing with the wiffle ball with the jingle bell in it.

So after conferring with the ACWF’s mom (the current owner of 8 cats) and hearing that we should see how he is in the morning, we let him go about his business. A business that, if having any economic plan at all, would consist mainly of attacking its shareholders and itself before taking 8 hour lunchbreaks and doling out 300 days of vacation every year.

So this morning Sherlock is still limping and after a visit to the vet we’ve been told to keep him in a room where he can’t jump up and down as much. Well, apparently this vet has never seen kittens before, because Sherlock jumps up and down, for no reason, whenever he’s not sleeping.

So, we’ll see how the cat is in a week.

Obligatory anti-cutsie-wootsie-kitten-post post for eebmore: The Blumkin- an act in which a male recieves oral sex from his partner while the receiver is taking a crap.

What’s long, creamy, and weighs a pound?

I don’t know, but I can’t get enough.

Check out the description.

Anybody who wants to buy me some of these, feel free.

Happy Hour
