She's very particular about the ring, so I've got to get that taken care of first.

****, dude, this sounds like a test of how obediently you jump thru hoops. Tell 'er she gettin' whatever's on sale at Zales, and if she don't like it, take them sexy nerd glasses down the road.
 
Uggh, this drives me nuts. Was on business travel in Monterrey, CA (well, actually the business was in San Jose, but we drove thru Monterrey), and one of the older guys in our group insisted on going to Bubba Gump shrimp. Seriously, we were in frickin' Monterrey, CA...there were probably 15 amazing local places nearby, but we're eating crap seafood in a place that exists solely because some popular movie had a character that had a shrimp boat.

I mean, I get the chain thing when you're not sure and 'not horrible' is better than going into a bad place, but in your case, with local intelligence, or in mine (it's Monterrey, CA, a **** restaurant isn't going to last), I really don't understand it.


I love going to local places when we travel. That's half the fun is trying good food you can't get at home. I say that noting the exception of how often I had McD's while in the UK. In our defense, they had wi-fi (which wasn't generally available in the places we slept), they were open past 6pm, and they were cheap! We got caught multiple times because the smaller towns seemed to shut down at 6pm and we were just getting done and ready to go get dinner.

What if I said something that was cheaper?

Also he's full of it, there will be no engagement.
 
Dear lord you live in KC and ended up at Texas Roadhouse. Next time don't give them a choice just say we're going somewhere local and take them. I don't even live in KC and I know better than that. Sorry you didn't get to show them somewhere nice or good.


yeah getting a Texas Roadhouse steak whilst in Kansas City seems a bit like going to Taco Bell in San Antonio.
 
As far as the parking issue, if it's a small lot and it's on a regular basis I'd say something to the landlord. Four spots is definitely pushing it.

Don't matter on price, it's more about how specific you are and how obscure it is. If he's gotta find you a unicorn, it's a test.

And on the second part, I know you're holding out for me, but please, don't...I want you to be happy...even if it is settling for pants and his slovenly, cover it up with air fresheners ways.

The woman likes what she likes.

And interestingly, one of my workout shirts fell on the freshener and I didn't realize it. Grabbed it and put it on to go to the gym and smelled like a Glade plug in the whole time.

Sounds like someone wanted to tell the story, but didn't want to admit in front of nickels that you didn't feel like doing laundry and just hung it on there to cover the stank.
 
so speaking of parking gripes, we have underground parking. When you walk out the basement door, I'm two spots from the door. The person between me and the door moved out and for some reason, the apt manager who normally parks down at the end decided to take this spot. Whatever, I don't care. Except he backs his car to within literally inches of the wall. Completely covering up the sidewalk thing. So now I get to walk all the way around his car to get back to mine. First world problems for sure but I'm like WHY THE **** DO YOU NEED TO PARK SO CLOSE TO THE DAMN WALL?! NO ONE CAN GET THROUGH HERE NOW ASSHAT!

The appropriate response here would have been a quick double bird to the car, and then "don't matter...2 weeks".
 
And who else is imagining this nickels/pants thing ending up with pants flying in as a surprise some weekend to propose, and finding nickels living with some dude and standing in the door going "Dude...I was just....JOKING"

I mean, I do everytime it's there. Been going on for about a month now. Doesn't pack the same punch when no one sees me flip off the car.
