Put on a Happy Face: Lounge LC Thread

Around here Spring will be a little late, but what the hell, I'll start the thread now.

I just can't take the abuse any

I am nearly sixty and don't even watch movies anymore and I loved KPOP Demon Hunters.


Cro - that's awesome you were able to make that sort of connection. i hope the memories of your times together never fade.


Thanks yall. A friend of mine has lost a few of his close movie festival pals and we're both hurting, we were both close with the guy who just passed. Life's too short and far too cruel.

Johnny, I can't make out your new avatar. It's a statue, right?

It's me and the Mothman in West Virginia.

Sorry, Cro. These losses pile up at my age and they are tough to bear.

Visited the rose garden in Regent's Park this evening. Maybe last week would have been optimal, but still not bad. Pleasant evening, following a thunderstorm, so not many people about. One almost forgets the possibility of these little escapes.




I'm amazed how wobbly I can get from two glasses of wine, especially over the course of a three hour dinner.

Probably only eating once all day isn't exactly healthy.

aka a cheap date


Sorry for your loss, Cro.

John, are you going to go see St. Vincent? I love her and would dump my GF immediately if I was show just a bit of interest from her lol


I'm on vacation! Then again I am mostly retired so I am pretty much always on vacation? But the week is over and the market got wrecked today. No worries πŸ˜€ Monday I am headed out to Vegas for 2 glorious weeks of WSOP. I can't wait! Right now I am sipping on a White Russian because there is no reason not to finish all of my cream since I will be out of town for two weeks. I have just enough for one more White Russian πŸ˜€

For the past 2 weeks the weather here has been perfect. I have spent time out on the deck sunning and reading and listening to music almost every day. But I can't wait to get out to the Vegas heat and action. I love tournament poker and wsop is the best time for that and I can't wait!


Safe travels, mrb! Clean up the non-2p2 money out there.

Not going. I wish I were. She's terrific.

Not a date. One of my coworkers needed some advice, so we met up for a while. She's a nice young woman, recently divorced, and I'd like to hook her up with someone. She also has a Ph.D. and is a dean.

And since I pay for dinner, I'm not really a cheap date.

Get β€˜em.

There’s a 30ish% chanceβ€”Hideki/Xander/MFitz/Wemby willingβ€”that I’ll leave a week from today to play some events at the Orleans miniseries and take a shot at the Bellagio 40-80 19 Game Mix.

'Cheap date' is a commonly used figurative expression from the American vernacular. It may or may not refer to the expenditure of funds.

I agree. Last night went to a local bar for the first half of the basketball game. I had one bourbon and again felt slightly intoxicated.

Some nights I can go out to dinner and feel completely fine after two glasses of wine. Other nights I feel drunk.

I'm a lightweight. And a cheap date.

Plus, I'd say, if you're buying, that's the cheapest of dates for the other person.

Just another notch on her lipstick case. Remember, a young man's most precious possession is his reputation.

Long story but I’m going. Arriving 6/11 leaving early 6/19. Orleans was sold out but Rio’s Masquerade Tower Strip View was shockingly cheap.

Spoiler
Show

And my flight from SLC was wtf shockingly expensive.

Would love to get on an early rush to pay for an entry to the $2500 Stud8/Omaha8 on 6/14–Steffi Graf’s birthday!

If you see a stooped over graybeard in a white Nixon hat, it’s probably me.

My reputation is sterling. I think.

Yes, and this is true for a young man, which I'm a million away from.

I treat some of my friends well. It gives me pleasure.

Last couple times I went out with the ladies from the math department, they slipped their cards to the waiter right away. Cheeky women.

Mrbaseball, isn't it nice to be mostly on vacation?

There are such things as Nixon hats? You and kioshk should meet up sometime.

I get it John. It's nice to do something for others, especially when it's a surprise to them.
