Went back over to my friend's place tonight to drink some whiskey and talk about whatever. The father was pretty wasted and tired by about 2am and went to bed. About an hour later I decided I would go back to my place since I have to do some shit early tomorrow morning. We went down to the courtyard, smoked a cigarette, walked into the lobby and he proceeded to check me out of the building(he still lives in a DePaul dorm room building). The lady asked where the other member of our group was and we explained that he was asleep and would not be woken up. She informed us that I would not be able to leave the building unless he came downstairs or my friend got "written up".

I told her "no" to both options and so she called some fucking administrative douchebag to the building. He kept vaguely threatening weird hypothetical punishment. It was the most absurd bullshit ever. I wasn't going to wake up a drunk 50 year old man at 3am so that I could get a goodnight sleep. The dude started trying to smell my breath because he probably sensed alcohol. I looked at both of them, said "fuck y'all, you ain't got no evidence." Then casually walked out of the building. I am sure I will get some note next week and end up having to talk to some ambiguous disciplinary board because everyone has to be such a law-abiding citizen. If that happens I am just going to tell them to start giving out condoms so I don't have to choose between food or fucking all the time.

Nothing pisses me off more than this kind of shit. It used to make my blood boil when I was in high school. You're living your life and then all of a sudden your entire decision making process is confronted with some convoluted bureaucratic arm of a Catholic university at 3am. Who has time for this shit?

Fact: There is nothing worse than the blindly law-abiding citizen. Other fact: The god damn Hawks couldn't score a single goal against the Predators...what the fuck?

Is there any American city (Texas obviously doesn't count) that is worse than Boston?

Suck a phat doick, Boston!

Miami for sure.

That was fun. Too bad these pre-season games don't count.

 

What the fuck is happening...

Hey don't worry Chicago:

It would have been sweet if this resulted in a diving call:

Six goals in one period. Jesus.

Hey guys! It's almost playoff time!

 

Welcome back Ned.

Haha I'm a dick. Sorta didn't realize that elimination happened last night for you guys.
Been more or less off the internet for a while now dealing with career/adult shit, but wanted to drop back in and say howdy. Good to see this place is still up and running.

Got a new dog

That's a fine hound, Ned.

A bandwagoner, but a fine hound.

lol

The wife was all, "I love puppy clothes." Going at it from this angle finally won me over.

I guess the real bandwagon dog would be wearing a Bluejackets sweater.

Watching Teemu take victory laps after his final regular season home game. It's been said before in this thread, but what a great human. If things don't go well for the Hawks this post season, I know the secondary team I'll be pulling for.
