Get Your Grump on Thursdays - Was (What's chapping my @ss today?)

[Saab2000]

Rush will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Is there not a Math Hall of Fame somewhere?

Yes, it's called a Nobel Prize.

Yes, it's called a Nobel Prize.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, for their tireless work in the fields of un-danceable rhythm in odd time signatures, needless key modulations, and of course their advancements in lyrical high-pitched frequencies, we present the Nobel prize to the 'rock' band Rush."

Can't spell 'Kenya'. Doesn't know the difference between 'their' and 'there'. I'd wager some would look at this less as a grump and more as an fun evening.......

C'mon. There's one more error. Someone's got to see it!

This is going to sound like a real first world problem, but…

The price of beer. Specifically, the trend towards tasty, lower-alcohol “session” beers like Lagunitas Daytime IPA or Stone Levitation. These are brilliant beers: hoppy, dry, flavorful, AND you can drink 2 or 3 or 4 without getting shitfaced. But they are the same price as their regular IPAs, often $10-11 per sixer. And we all know they require a fraction of the raw ingredients to make them. I’m not going to pay that much for a 4% ABV beer, because the whole point of 4% beer is that you can drink more of it. I simply can’t afford to pay $11 for session beer.

That's the stuff.

And now this.

Adele - "Skyfall" (James Bond Theme) | New Music | SoulCulture

She's just the worst. The producers have got the sound, but there's no Bond excitement. The bridge goes nowhere. The chorus is dull. And Skyfall/Crumble is a really lazy rhyme.

[maunahaole]

Chase....go walk the dog. Rush will continue to suck, no matter what. People like stuff that sucks, can't change that.

With all this talk about cheating in sports, I wonder what kind of subsidies (sic) are propping up our Big Bird killer app.

Drake's sixes at the Barrel House for $7.99, the best of both worlds.

September saw two of my friends die, one of whom left a wife and three kids, and it was witnessed by them all and five of their closest friends and all thier families - 18 kids, total. The other one was found by a friend going to pick them up to go to the 1st one's wake. They were both 45.
Then, my dog died, and I got the flu, and then someone close to me was victimised by a serial sex offender.
September sucked BAD.
I had to get that off my chest.

No, she's perfect provided they're bringing back Roger Moore for an even less entertaining remake of A View to a Kill.

I don't know you personally, but my grump is that I'm not in Flagstaff to buy you a drink and let you just unload all that shit. My heart goes out you and all those close to you that were lost, hurt, and affected in such deep ways. Puts things into perspective. I know where my thoughts will be tonight. If there's anything I can do from here...let me know.

So sorry, Garro. This getting older shite is not for the faint of heart, to be sure. You take care.

Thanks, Man - I'm trying to be the stoic strong guy for everyone and knowing I can unload here and still keep my game face means allot.

100% true: As I was reading this, that Volwaken ad with the Rush song just happened to be playing on the TV in the background.

[MacLaughlin]

If you can't hang with a 7/4 time signature... well, it sounds like a personal problem.

But yeah, I hate Rush too.

[Gummee]

My grump is that I seem to be invisible to anyone with 2 X chromosomes. Being single and looking, it sucks.
