I cut my lip shaving.

[So Far From Heaven]

It seems I'm getting to be a little like my '82 Isuzu diesel truck. It doesn't start up real well, especially on cold dark mornings. It's sort of herky-jerky for about ten minutes, just like me. Some effing idiot in Germany came up with a way to win the war (WWI) with something called daylight savings time. Perfect psycho warfare. If he wasn't dead already, I'd kill him. Instead, I cut my lip shaving.

1. Best rant ever about DLS

[Kip Humphrey]

3. YES!

[ebayfool]

2. You shave your lips? n/t

[So Far From Heaven]

4. Not usually, but what the hell, shit happens.

[ebayfool]

6. !

5. What I love most about Daylight Savings time is

that now that I'm retired, I can ignore it.

Friday I went to bed at 11:00 pm and got up around 7:00 am.
Saturday night I set my clocks ahead and went to bed at 12:00 and got up around 8:00 am.

Nothing in my life changed except meaningless pointers on the face of a numbered dial. I can ignore that. My schedule, measured by the sun and stars, is the same as before.

7. Wow. I'm having a flashback.

Someone please tell me I'm not the only one.

[Phentex]

12. With a female nominee...

Won't be hard to tell soon enough.

[kentauros]

8. Ha!!

Here's to the next GD Flame War!

[Phentex]

11. What did I tell you?!

[kentauros]

18. It should be a talk radio station:

KSRS - All Serious. ALL. THE. TIME!1!!

"We're outraged! And we're outraged if you aren't outraged with us. What The F Is Wrong With You?!?!?!?!?"

[Warpy]

9. I'd love to do the same to the jackass who determined "standard" time

Every year it's like going into a dark, depressing tunnel for 4 1/2 months. It was especially bad in Boston, when the only way to see the sun was to sprint outside for a few secods after bolting your lunch at work.

Keep DST year round, no more changes. If suburbanites want to complain about their kids waiting for the bus in the dark, let the schools start an hour later. Teenagers would love it.

[pansypoo53219]

10. YEAH. i wanna stay at THIS time.

[Blue Dalek]

14. I completely agree! Make DST standard time and keep it year round.

And another thing, if you have DST for 7.5 months then that is standard time and rename as such. As for current standard time, that could be renamed, too.

[alarimer]

13. The only good thing about Daylight Savings is that my cat is completely unaware of it.

He wakes us at 8 instead of 7 now.

[kentauros]

19. That IS a good fring benefit.

And it will last longer than the way it just had been, of your cat waking you up an hour earlier

[CreekDog]

15. nah you didn't

but maybe why you really joined DU is:

So Far From Heaven (17 posts)
88. His economic policies sucked and

his presidency was nothing but one scandal after another (with her eagerly participating). The republicans will have to do a tv add of one scandal every day to get all of them out in the time between her selection and her loss in the general.

Why else do you think her negatives are over 50 percent even among democrats?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=1486474

well, whatever, MIRT can deal with this.

[So Far From Heaven]

16. I started this because I actually have

cut my lip shaving. It's usually due to old age and happens most often in the wee hours of the morning. Unfortunately for you, I tell the truth. I joined DU because I want to enjoy the company of people that are smart, educated and USUALLY have a sense of humor.

As far as Bill 'I feel your pain' Clintons' economic policies:

They sucked. I lived through them all the way to today.

Take a chill pill.

[CreekDog]

25. so 17 posts into DU membership, you decide to post a meaningless shaving post to GD

basically on a dare?



is this your first time here?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

31. Sid Dithers did.

He's actually the Uber God of DU, and Creekdog is his Vice God.

He's also Skinner.

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. Hahahaha

[TorchTheWitch]

20. I once glued my lips together with superglue

trying to take the cap off with my teeth.

[kentauros]

21. Best laugh out loud comment today!

I hope you were able to get them unglued without too much panic, though

[So Far From Heaven]

23. I have this feeling

that a mighty tug of war came in to play. Something like 'How the hell do I explain this?' versus 'Now what do I do?'!

[kentauros]

24. That's an even better visual!

[So Far From Heaven]

22. My brother once froze his tongue

to the shelf of the freezer trying to lick off spilled ice cream.

You wouldn't believe what my brother has managed to pull off.

Except his tongue. We had to pour water over it for a while to release it from the shelf. Coolest looking tongue wound I've ever seen.

[Aerows]

30. I was in the mall as a kid

and asked my mom for a frozen pineapple pop. I got the damn thing stuck in my mouth and couldn't get it out until we went to the ladies' room and she helped me put hot water all over it. My sister stood by laughing the entire time.

I don't eat popsicles of any sort.

[So Far From Heaven]

32. That's O-K, I once tried the classic fill your mouth so full of mashed potatoes

that you can't swallow thing while I was in a dorm at college.

Started laughing and managed to snort a bunch through my nose.

Didn't get any dates for awhile after that.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

26. Mainly because half the people I was with believed it until I explained it to them.

27. The paradox of early morning coffee making

It's a French Press. It's not complicated. Boil some water, grind some beans, mix, etc.

The problem is that I need to be awake to make coffee and I'm not awake until I've had some coffee.

One time I skipped the grinding step and mixed whole beans and hot water.

[So Far From Heaven]

28. That's why I make the coffee before I go to bed.

It's a crappy drip machine but at least it's coffee, hot and too early to care.

I do have to remember to make it though.
