I mean at least have the decency to tag the man... @LuckyDuck
Bender doesn't tag Dudes . He tags pigeons .
Shut up diaper boy. Mine was a joke, you actually did that.Better them than me.
Likely not your intention but that brought up a "fond" memory of mine if you can believe it.
A number of years ago I found myself dining in the Officer's club in the Newport Naval Base. Not that there was anything particularly "fancy" about the location just that my previous life didn't involve invitations to Officer's clubs (from what I know now, not many of 'em exist these days, at least not like they used to).
Anyway- long story short I was doing a work thing again at that location and was invited to the Officer's club for their (weekly I believe) seafood boil). It wasn't my 1st trip to Newport or my 1st visit to the officer's club but this was one of the first "events" I was expected to participate in for work.
It's no state secret- one can easily google what the location looks like...
So I find myself there again and this time for a seafood boil so some more images of such activity from the same location...
So all that to say- it was a 'nice' location, with a 'classy' spread, designed to attract 'cultured' diners. And then your old friend LuckyDuck rolls in dressed well & on his most professional behavior. It's a beautiful gathering with good plates and cloth napkins and I remember thinking at the time that I just might be turning a corner in my career that I'm now finding myself in these situations and I'm feeling pretty good about that.
Well I start into breaking up the lobster claws delicately presented in front of me and low & behold I cut the ever living shit out of my hand with the shell. It was an absolute mess. Think arterial bleeding all over my plate, all over the cloth napkins & tablecloth... a trail of blood all the way across the hardwood floors you see in the first picture. It was just blood every freakin where. And in classic LD fashion, right at the beginning of this evening so not to gain any professional benefits from it.
I cut myself deep enough with that initial lobster claw that I likely should have needed stitches but after bleeding through a few cloth napkins I ended up butterfly stitching my hand back together and bandaging the shit out of it (replacing it daily) for the rest of my time there in Newport. So much for professional development.
But yeah- that was my first and last seafood boil experience.

Having lived in Oklahoma for the last 3 years, where catfish is considered seafood, I'm hating you about now. Looking forward to a trip to San Diego's Blue Water Grill, down by the airport and base, great seafood.
Apparently I fail to realize that I seem to get around the world more than a cheap whore but- (not that you asked even) but if you're going to San Diego in the future I found a few spots you might be interested in.
(1) Old Town - probably my favorite place in SD and worth the time if you can spare it
(2) San Diego Zoo- likely the best zoo I've ever seen in my entire life
(3) San Diego "wharf" / "seaport village" - honestly the best tacos (street tacos) I've ever had in my life
(4) if you're a beer drinker- check out Stone Brewery, that's one that I don't think has ever brewed a beer I didn't love. All personal taste driven of course but personally I'm a huge fan of Stone Brewery.
(5) Lots of cool ships to see anchored there as permanent museums, extra credit to the Star of India ship they have docked there.
All that said- aside from the street tacos, I've had better food elsewhere.
<ETA: watch out for the homeless guys (seriously). Nobody wants to hear this story here but I watched one particular fellow masturbate "vigorously" and yell obscenities at women walking by for over a week and that was... well just what he did. Also the street lights talk to you there in case you're blind apparently (again not making this up).

I don't think that means what you think it means.
But did you finish the lobster?
That fact that you came across a video of a guy deep throating a lobster and thought of lucky duck says a lot.
Already spooged one or two.
Took me a good 10 seconds to scroll past it and get to something worth reading.

I’m sure you guys get the jist of it, but I came elaborate if needed
Fuck, sounds like its changed a LOT. Last time I was ythere was pre O'bummer. The only real reason I'll go is the seafood but I'll check out the street tacos. I went to the Zoo in the early 90's it was ok but bothered me seein the big animals in such small quarters. Maybe they've improved it I've heard the Wild Animal Park is more open.
Thanks for the tips.
Y'all are just being mean,@LuckyDuck is really a great guy. He told me he was going to gift me one of those nice Ed Brown 1911's he put up on his 'Manly' thread.

It's been too long since I saw this response. Good to see it again.
This is what I don't seem to grasp...
The same folks that complain about how I post are the same folks that actively seek when I do like moths to a flame.
Either you exercise option (A) and instantly have your entire SH experience improved...
Or option (B), you come to terms with acknowledging you actually enjoy my contributions and agree with our good friend Jack...
It's boolean expression gents- one or the other. Either hit the ignore or give up the martyr commentary of how burdened you are for having to skip over my posts (and coincidentally then spend more time to craft a post responding as such then it would to just read the post in the first place).
Either way, the rhetoric is getting old. Your limited attention span & reading comprehension is a 'you' issue not a 'duck' issue. Either address the matter using option A or sack up.

Truthfully-
I don't think I got so much of 3 bites out of it. I hadn't realized I had cut myself before noticing I was bleeding all over that plate (think a raspberry glaze intentionally applied to white lobster/crab meat & yellow corn). I genuinely had no idea one could cut themselves so deeply and badly with the shell from shellfish (never heard of it occurring before or since then) but that's the gods honest truth of what happened.
So put another way- I went to bed hungry and low on blood that night.

False choices. There are more than just two.
You left out howler monkeys roasting your ass for good reason, you overly verbose blow hard.
How about you "sack up" and post your "thoughts" without all the "Edith" detours.
THIS IS THE BEAR PIT
Don't apologize, five seven and seven eighths really isn't THAT short..........
Thanks for proving my point (and so quickly) there scooter. I award you one rubber duck!

I have often wondered how many people that are ignored on this forum truly do not have a clue that this is the case, nor why.
I also wonder how much oxygen they would consume from the atmosphere if you met them in real life, or if one could actually get in a word in during a conversation.

The gauntlet has been thrown.
My ignore list is zero. I do scroll by a few.
Hope I’m on a few.
Got to be your shortest post evah!!!!
As simply as I can put it.
Most people come to this site for either information or entertainment.
Your posts don't provide a high density of either, in and of themselves, but they attract entertainment like a bloody highway pileup attracts curious onlookers.
I see where you're coming from but I do not. I always liked the Wranglers & Grand Cherokees but out of the many folks I've known that owned them I'm pretty sure everyone of them had major mechanical problems. I seem to recall the transmission in particular with the Cherokees being a frequent/reoccurring problem.
I drove a 4 door rubicon for a month or so and while it was neat I was put off by the body sway it had and honestly it wasn't that smooth of a ride (likely could be helped with less aggressive tires) but I reckon folks don't buy them for comfort either.
I'll tell you what I often wonder-
You know how children often ask for something (usually a sweet treat) and the mother always comes back with "we have perfectly good X at home"? Well in Europe, where pay toilets/water closets are common do children there ask to use it and be told by their European mothers that they have a perfectly good toilet at home?
The things that keep you up at night...
Hah no- just your basic pickup truck. First vehicle I owned with an automatic transmission come to think of it. I've been looking at the Jetta's though as a daily driver since you can still get them as a manual but I'm enjoying not having any car payments and waiting to see if the prices go down in the next year or so.
