Re: Saturday night aka "Bravehood"

Gro is out and about saturday night in DT Chatt. There is one underage club for teenagers (anyone from the cap district... think secrets) that is having some sort of party becuase there is an usually high amout of teenies in the area. And if you were wondering what kind of teenagers lets just say most of them wore white t shirts down to their knees and "shorts" that end about 2" above the ankle.

That being said, nothing much was going on at the time. Fast forward to about 3am 'Gro is back at GGF's place which is about 3 blocks from all the bars. Gro can hear people shouting in the street and goes to the window to investigate. There were at least 50 kids running down the street, many in close prox. to the 'Grosplorer parked out front. You could hear things like "where'd they go!" and "find that MF!".  Johnny law pulls up at the end of the block and throws the spot light on the mob and like a flock of thugged out birds in long white t-shirts they all pull a 180 and run the other way back towards DT.

Never found out how the whole thing started, but it was bizzare to say the least. GGF and I threw on our bullet proof PJ's and went to sleep.

Speaking of shopping.  JT went on a rare shopping expedition with the future Mrs. JT.  JT usually doesn't go, but he got bribed with a BBQ lunch at JT's favorite place.

In observing women shop, JT noticed that dudes are way classier shoppers than women.  We don't fight over the last pair of pants in our size on a rack.  A dude would just go to another store.  Talk about cat fights. 

Small wonder FMJT walks around with about 100 lbs of clothes to try on.  "Someone else might take it, if you leave it on the rack."

This move takes the cake.  We were getting some kitchen stuff at a closeout place and FMJT tells JT to watch the cart.  So JT is about 20ft away from the cart looking around.  A lady comes into view and notices two serving dishes in our cart.  The lady looks on the shelf and sees that we have the last two.  She glances around and makes a quick grab for the stuff in our cart.

JT: "Excuse me, WTF are you doing with my stuff?"

Lady: [totally busted]  Oh I didn't know that this cart belonged to anyone.

JT: Guess the purse with the hairbrush sticking out of it wasn't a good enough clue.

JT: Hope that kid in your cart is yours.

Lady:  Asshole.

JT: [shrugs]  Its a gift.

Great work PBR and JT.

KR's biggest pet peeve is people with a ridiculous amount of items in the 8 items or less lane. KR likes to count the items aloud as their being scanned getting louder and then at the end announcing how many more than 8 the total was.

Other pet peeve: Penny counters. If the total is $5.89, just give the clerk a 5 and a 1 and get your 11 cents back. The people behind you as well as the clerk don't want to sit there as you count out 89cents announcing with each state quarter you find, "I can't spend this one, my son/grandson collects them." And definitely don't check the year on each penny and save and announce the discovery of pennies from the year of your, your kids, or your grandkids' birth.
Pay in whole dollar amounts and store the change up in a jar and take it to the bank or Coinstar once a year like normal people do.

Wal-mart's express lane is 20 items or less... 20 items is not the express lane!! Of course that doesn't stop some old lady from having 45 items, and OF COURSE she's gonna pay with a check or even worse... WIC.

I used to get mad at the people who paid with checks or WIC, now I am equally mad at the cashiers too... don't they train you for this? can't you solve this w/o having to call 'Rob' the manager over?

how long until internet grocery shopping is mainstream?

[Kilted Rat]

WIC and foodstamp payments are annoying, however hard to fault the people who actually need it.


Last week I was in line and the 35ish dood in front of me buys 2 cases of natty light, 3 cartons of smokes and pays cash for them

He then pulled out his Iowa FoodStamp Debit card to pay for 3 pops and a gallon of ice cream. WTF

Reg has a couple questions for you cats....
HOW OFTEN ARE YOU GOING TO THE STORE THAT YOU NOTICE PEOPLE IN THE 8 AND UNDER LINE!!!!?? Why would you put yourself through that?

And Walmart Gro???  what do you need at walmart that you are there so often??? Everytime I talk to you you are headed there.  Don't they have like 85 lanes?....cant you find an open one?

[PBR...]

and the classic that ALWAYS happens to pbr at wal mart after pbr has been standing in line for hours behind 20 people it never fails as i get to be next in line that stupid light blinks over the register and the attendant has to page the manager to come unlock the register with their key and of course the manager is out back of the store smokin' a doob and takes another 30 minutes for the dood to show up

With the store 100 yards away, it's easy to run there when I need like 1-5 things. There are usually only 3-5 lines open and one is always the express lane, so its the one I use.

Wal-Mart is the only store in TN, don't blame Gro because only four people in the state can run a register.

On friday KS and the Stalkerette take a drive out to Rockville Center on LI so that the dealer can take care of a couple of things that needed fixing on the Freestalker, nothing that big, just some little things.  The dealer gave KS a loaner so he and the Stalkerette can go to the beach that is about five miles away.  We get to the beach and find a nice spot just above the surf line and near the lifeguard stand.  KS is reclining back and checking out the local talent.  The Stalkerette is playing in the sand making sand mounds and then stomping on them.

About a half hour after the Stalkers get settled in some roid freak comes along and decides to sit right in front of KS when there is maybe twenty people on the beach for two hundred yards in either direction.  SF then starts to rub oil all over himself in an extremely ghey manner, sits down, pulls out the cell phone and proceeds to loudly make several calls.  At about this point KS decides to let the Stalkerette go nuts.  It took about ten minutes but ghey SF decided to leave and find a more secluded place.  Soon after a pair of milfs came along and after putting sun screen on the kids rubbed it on each other.  Good day at the beach.

As smart as 'Gro claims to be... he usually only shops for the next 4-5 days ahead, and when he gets home he always finds something he forgot to buy, therefore another trip to WM is in order.

There are at least 30 lanes in WM, and never more than 10 cashiers... but don't tell that to the 3 people staffed in the women's undies section that are gabbing away while gro is just trying to pick up a 2 liter of diet coke and some mentos.

if you haven't already search youtube for 'mentos rockets'

Watch for the guy who has a dozen eggs. "Dude, that's 12 items!"
