1. My name is Robert. I introduce myself as Robert. It irritates the hell out of when I introduce myself as Robert and someone automatically starts calling me Bob or Rob. To me it's just rude.

2. If you're standing at the cashier at the supermarket and he or she is ringing up your items hang up the damned cell phone! You're doing business with someone, give him or her your undivided attention. It's rude to be chatting (loudly!) with someone else at this moment. I have and will tell you to hang up the damn phone because no one else wants to hear it. And if you're the cashier don't be chatting with your friend in line behind me while you're ringing up my items. Seriously, I've complained to management about this...

3. I was pulling a tranny out of an F150 and went to drop the ratchet that was in my hand to stabilize the tranny on the tranny jack when it slipped from my hand and the handle end of the ratchet hit me in the left ********. I spent two weeks walking with a cane.

4. I met my wife through a personal ad on Yahoo. We've been together for ten years.

5. I always wanted my dad's hands. He's worked with his hands all his life and they are like leather. Those are the hands of an honest hard working man.

He hung up and wanted to argue, the manager came over before anything happened. I did get 10% off of my purchase though.

1. my name is douglas, doug or douglas is cool, but DO NOT call me Dougie, my mother used to call me that and it pissed me off to no end.
2. did anybody not learn to stare at people when they were young? i am a overweight, long haired, heavily tattooed white boy that wears shorts and T shirts pretty much all the time who happens to be married to an attractive Mexican woman who likes to wear dresses, so DON'T STARE at us. How would you like it if a shot one of the hostile bi-polar stares that I am somewhat known for back at you?

1. I'm very handy and have not found many things in my life I can't do initially on my own, or with just a little explanation.

2. I met my wife on a blind date, and we have been married over 31 years.

3. I was once a partner with a cousin in a dairy farm.

4. According to my family, I am very anal retentive about a lot of things and a perfectionist about most things. I can't help it if I have to have the toilet paper roll over the front not down the back.

5. Because I lost my dad in a job-related accident when I was nine years old, I committed myself to making sure I would be involved in my two son's lives as much as possible, so that they would know their dad, if anything ever happened to me. So far, I think I've done a pretty good job of it.

I am the same way about the paper

I lost my dad when I was 4. He was 35. I am like you about being with my son. He is 4 now and I will not miss parts of his life for anything. I changed jobs to be with him more. He won't remember that dad was making money by working Christmas, he'll remember I wasn't there. That's also a reason I wanted to have him when I was young. If I die when I'm 35, he will be 14 and have spent alot of time with me.
 
1. My sisters like to call me Jer'a or Jer bear and it makes me want to punch them. lol
2. I started out as a Ford fan, but my Dads friend took me for a ride in his Dodge truck when I was eight. Mopar ever since.
3. I owned two real HEMI cars before I was 20. 66 HEMI charger in 1999 at age 16, 70 HEMI 4spd runner in 2002 at age 20.
4. Ruptured my L5S1 disk when I was 23 and had major back problems. I couldn't walk for a wile, but with help from physical therapy and Doctors and lots of work, I do pretty good now with very little back pain. No surgery required. (I love acupuncture)
5. I am the oldest child, grandchild and great grandchild. My nephew got the same curse.
 
Jes messin' wit ya.
They do say there is a thin line between genius and insanity.
 
:toothy10: Sorry man, but I keep getting a movie of this in my head and I can't help but crack up. I bet that hurt like hell too.

Oh you weren't the only one. It was thanksgiving weekend, with no doc's office open, so we had to go to the emergency room. The receptionist who has to take all of your information started laughing so hard she was crying, then asked if we got it on tape cause we could win $10,000 on funniest home videos. Yes, it did hurt. Knee swelled up to the size of a grape fruit.

It's still funny though. I even laugh about it. Well, I do now, anyway. :-D
