I'm a slacking bum, go ahead and ask me anything - Calgarypuck Forums - The Unofficial Calgary Flames Fan Community

Yeah, so, I am no longer working as of now and I've decided to just hole up inside my girlfriend's apartment until after the playoffs before I go back to work and/or go back to school. I'll be doing many things, most unproductive, some questionable, and the majority pointless.

If you have any questions about slacking, or being a bum in general, you can go ahead and ask. I'll see if I can help you out.

Will do you my assignment that's due tomorrow morning for me so that I can go to bed? I mean it's not like you have anything better to do.....

Love the tags BTW.

I would, but I've been up all night. Pulling an all nighter. I probably wouldn't be able to contribute much to it, unfortunately.

I will let you know this though. There are three forms of 'allers.'

An all dayer is the most regular form, pulled by most people. You just stay up all day, and sleep all night.

An all nighter is when you stay up all day, BUT you also stay up all night, sleeping when the wee hours of the morning come (which is what I'm pulling right now).

The last, but not least, form of an aller, is an all dayernighter. That's when you stay up all day, as usual, then all night, and then all the next day. This is the most elusive form of the aller, and the most difficult.

Torture · 04-02-2009, 03:30 AM

Damn! Was worth a try.

I can proudly say that I've pulled all three types of "allers".

I'll be doing a partial all nighter tonight. Still holding out hope that I'll get a few hours of sleep before I have to hand this in.

That said, I was expecting to be done in about half an hour....which is absolutely not happening so we'll see whether I get any of that elusive sleep..

Dude, I work 30 hours a week and still pull 2-3 all nighters a week. Kudos to you for rocking the all nighters. I love eating supper at 5am in the morning.

I have a question, when you get bored what do you do? Xbox? TV? Fap?

Download TV episodes, read a book, or play PC games, mostly. I'm trying to get into this Terminator TV series, but I don't know... Summer Glau is really the only saving grace thus far, and even that goes only so far. I mean, a terminator in a high school talking to teenage girls in the bathroom? Shouldn't she be mowing those biatches down or something? And what's with John Connor being in school to begin with? If intelligent killer robots from the future were trying to kill me, I probably wouldn't be that concerned with going to bloody school.

I like to watch highlights from past Calgary games during the season that I particularly enjoyed... Mostly if they won that game, although the last little while the team has depressed me too much to watch that many.

Keep watching it, it gets much better!

if you were really a slacking bum, wouldn't you be procrastinating answering these questions?

No, because I'm procrastinating something else WHILE I am answering these questions.

Oh, and while I'm at it, I think the world should do away with corners. Can you imagine a world without corners, replaced with gently sloping CURVES? How many deaths and injuries are incurred because of corners? How many heads hit corners cracking them open? How many toes are stubbed, breaking them? Without corners, the world's mortality rate would drop rapidly, I say. Nature doesn't use corners. Trees don't have corners. Apples don't have corners. BUSHES don't have corners.

Do your part. Get rid of corners in YOUR home. Save a life.

You sir, are a genius. You inspire me. Solve more of life's problems please.

Well in that case, there's no such thing as real corners. Everything is a curve, its just to what degree its a corner.

Okay, well, we should do away with degrees that become corners. Once a certain degree is reached, that person should be put in jail, in a circular jail cell so he or she can't hurt themselves on the corners.

I'd like you to be "that guy" who wears his Flames jersey all day, everyday until they are either eliminated or win the cup. Thanks in advance.

And the day after they win the cup could you switch to a Stamps jersey?

Ask you anything? Hmmm...so..many..questions...

1) Why are you no longer working?

2) Seeing as you're from Toronto, perhaps you can help me with this one. Why to Torontonians think their city is the center of the Universe?

BTW - I was a wee bit intoxicated the other night with some buddies of mine and while trying to spit out that exact sentence I blurted out, "Toronto thinks they are the Centerverse". After a good laugh, that quickly became our new favorite word and we've been using it ever since. Feel free to pass it along!

Anyways, back to the questions

3) What, exactly, is the meaning of life?

loob job · 04-02-2009, 07:19 AM

Home alone all day with nothing to do, i think this thread should be merged with the "Stocks to Buy" Thread as proof that KY Stock is gonna be "shooting" up.

How much cheese can you eat in one 24 hour period?

Rhetts_the_Best · 04-02-2009, 07:23 AM

"Summer of George"

I will try my best to answer these. Hmmm... Some tough questions here.

1) I no longer work because I am a slacking bum. That, and the job I was doing had me working nights for the playoffs, and I can't miss the Flames in the playoffs. I don't catch 82 games a season just to miss the most important time of the year. Mostly, though, I'm a slacking bum.

2) I'm not sure why Torontonians think that. I'm from PEI, and if anything, we think we're the pebble of the universe, so meh. I just live in Toronto. It's a nice city. Love the multiculturalism. Hate the corners.

3) The meaning of life. That one's easy. The meaning of life is finding out what the heck is going on in Lost. Once you've figured that one out, you are God. Or Jesus. Or Both (does that need to be capitalized, too)?

I love cheese, I could probably eat at least 24 circular pieces of cheese in 24 hours. Not wedges, though, they stick in my throat. If you melted the cheese, I could eat even more. Like double. 48 circular pieces of cheese in melted form.
