Singles Social Club: It's 5 o'clock somewhere!

Hey DC, since you mentioned the muppers videos earlier, I wanted to let you know that I did in fact use the word "disasterpiece" in conversation with a third grader today.

 

[ctnurse]

And I thought you just went for the culture...

Oh that right the culture. That's why I eat in the restaurants in EPCOT!

 

[TexasDisneyBelle]

So far I haven't adapted a PA accent, but I think that's more because it's less of an accent, and more of a "how the hell did you get that word out of those letters?!".

Seriously.... There is no "R" in "WASH".


I think this gives new meaning to the term "Food Porn".

:rotfl

At least I didn't say, "It'sa Me! MARIO!"

I'm drowning in the sarcasm even all the way down here

Way to go! It's always nice to see teachers making sure our children are well edumacated in proper words

All of my dad's relatives live in PA and they have weird inflection when they ask questions. I don't know how to describe it with words, but it cracks me up every time they ask something. Of course, they make fun of my "accent" with my Michigan A's.

1 without proof of prior PA residence, there is NO way in the club

Once you are all in Florida, you are no longer PA residents so the PA takeover of the thread is null and void. . .

1. So Adoption isn't allowed?

Awe, you would adopt me DC?

FYI Mr. Smartypants i did teach them a lesson on using word choice in their writing and poetry when I wasn't busy destroying their academic futures.

Good luck with it!

Thanks

OMG that's really cool! what prompted this purchase?

I've been looking to buy a bike for awhile. This one came along and it was in the price range I was looking for (only paid $1,250 for it) so I bought it. haha

I'm SSSoooooo Wanting to get a bike. The fact one of the major Harley plants is in town....and I pass it daily on my commute to work, doesn't help any. That, or the fact that i'm literally the only person in my department who doesn't have his motorcycle license.

Unfortunately I doubt I'm going to be able to get one this season either....even though the gas prices would make it oh so desirable right now. Unfortunately between debt payoff and my need to replace the vehicle, a motorcycle falls down the list a bit.

I say do it and just get a used bike that needs a little work. You can usually pick them up for pretty cheap on craigslist. I got my Goldwing for $1,250 and it just needs 2 rebuild kits for the clutch master and slave that cost me $45 shipped on Ebay and probably 6 hours of work. The only other thing it needs is a lid for one of the saddle bags but it's just a cosmetic issue so I'll eventually get one.


That's why I got it. Gas is almost $4 a gallon here. I understand the debt payoff. I wound up turning my truck into the bank because it was just getting too expensive to keep it between gas, insurance, and the payment.

Just wanted to tell you that teachers ROCK!

But we are still PA people, even if we no longer reside within the state.

PA is like a disease.... Once you get infected by it there is no cure.

Never said that, I'm just trying to establish the rules here.

Oh What the hell,
Let me just tell you about TexasDisneyBelle.
As a teacher her future looked bright,
Her class was utopia, you'd never see a fight.

But then one day it all got cloudy,
The kids were moody, and some quite pouty.
You see, she taught them the word Disasterpiece,
And just like that, Their Future? Deceased.

Unfortunately I can't quite justify it right now. if I'm lucky, I may get 3 or 4 months this season before it starts to get too cold for me to ride regularly. Add to that the fact I live in an apartment, so I'd have to figure out where I could winter the bike.

Add that my truck is showing signs of wanting to die on me, and it's hard to find a good reason to spend the month on a bike. debt + limited usage time of the bike + need to have a vehicle that I can use year round and in inclimate weather == Bike will have to wait until next year.

The bright side.... it gives me a lot more time to spend figuring out what I want, and maybe later this summer I might go ahead and get my bike license so that I don't have to worry about my learners or testing next season.

just thought I'd mention that even though I am from NJ, but live in Florida, my birth certificate says I was born in Scranton, PA.

So, I get to be part of the PA club by default

That definitely makes sense. That's why I love living in the desert. There's maybe 20-30 days a year I couldn't ride out here.

Ouch man. That really sucks but I definitely understand.

That is very true. Just figure out what you like and what you're comfortable on. I'm a big guy so I need a big bike. haha.

that must be a york thing, or you are listening to imports, that is not pennsylvania talk

Well then, by default, according to your rules, I am a CA person and not truly a Floridian. Hmmmm, I am going to have to start another club I guess. . .lol.

 

[Mandyjg20]

You should definitely still quit...
If you want to get all sexy voiced I'm sure I can find some kid who'd be willing to cough on you. There's plenty of them at my school. Or you can just wait for them to make me sick and I'll cough on you myself.

Yeah I agree with TexasDisneyBelle Quit smoking, find kids to cough on you. or everytime you see someone sneeze run fast and get hit by the spray, all the while yelling i need the deep sexy voice

 

[Mandyjg20]

What about a man with an accent? I could listen to Bono or Sting all day long!

Oh yea love the accents!! Especially Scottish, and Irish

 

[Mandyjg20]

Yeah I think is a york thing, I live in Berks County and they have all different kinds of weird things in the speech. ie Berks Caunty

Oh yeah, I love the part about yelling. That's very important.
