Minor Confession Thread

Now that I do most of my banking online, dental hygienists seem to have replaced bank tellers as the kind of batE36 M3 crazy chicks with whom I would like to make horrible, life changing mistakes.

Also, today was the first time that I ever had nitrous at the dentist. Unfortunately, it does not appear that I was molested while incapacitated.

Two months before Baby is due.  I'd made a promise to myself that I was going to lose 10 pounds in those 2 months. A very reasonable, attainable, and sustainable goal. My wife brought home a loaf of bread and garlic last night. She handed them to me and said "you know where the butter is." It wasn't a request, it was a demand. Every damn time I make garlic bread, I end up eating about 9000 calories in one sitting. Dammit.

My dental hygienist is cute. Every time I visit, I eat a whole package of Oreo cookies while waiting in the lobby. Sometimes she has to cancel the rest of the afternoon's appointments.

Today I achieved the life milestone of having the nurse I was talking to ask if I owned a walker.

Lemont, Illinois is a heavy Polish/Lithuanian area and the Chase Bank in the town has a 40-ish year old bleach blonde tall bank teller that will speak Polish to you if you’re in the game.  

I hear her speaking sometimes in polish and she has a firm and solid tone and then I think bad ideas.  I had her notarize some papers once and was in heaven.  

Hey, now.  

As a kid l liked the Snowman better than the Bandit, because he drove the truck, and trucks are cooler than Trans Ams.

Maybe just a little one? One that doesn't have anything gross in it? 

In reply to Appleseed :

Also Jerry Reed was just cool in general.

I forgot to hook the drivers side inner door handle up. I have to open the window on my bmw to get out.

And I'm ok with that.

In reply to Dusterbd13 :

I spent 4 hours last month on a Saturday afternoon replacing the door actuator on my 2016 Chevrolet Silverado.  All works great.

On Monday morning I find a yellow push rivet pin tit thing on my driveway and I put in in my center console for storing.   

And I’m ok with that.

The shift-brake interlock assembly went out on my 2003 Explorer so I have to push my finger in a little hole under the steering column as an override to go from park to drive and I’m OK with that…theft deterrent…snazzy push to start experience…I don’t know why but it doesn’t really bother me.

One of my least proud moments is still the time I unhooked the shift interlock cable on the Mustang because I forgot it's an electric solenoid and as such doesn't work with the battery unhooked.

I may have made an unwise purchase.  Only peripherally car related.

So we can assume it’s not a V8 Miata with unknown catastrophic internal issues?

Not that unwise, no.

Burt Reynolds starred in almost all of my favorite movies as a kid but he was never my favorite character in those movies. My favorite sidekick of them all was probably Jim Nabors in Stroker Ace.

My kids were just hula hooping. My wife said something about Hawaii day at kid#4's school. My brain exploded as I realized, in my 40's, for the first time, that the hula hoop is named after the hip motion of the hula dance. I've never seen a hula dancer hula hoop and I was completely unable to make that connection. My wife is questioning my history of head injuries.

A little dental hygienist?

As long as there's nothing gross in it apparently

Well I have to agree that you wouldn't want one with something gross in it.

I just bought a random used VW Passat shift knob on ebay because it looked neat. Then it occured to me that it may or may not actually fit on the 90s Saturn shifter I plan to put it on. I guess if it doesn't fit I'll make it fit.

I may find myself getting arrested someday because I watched T2 far roo many times and every time I use an ATM, I think to myself "Please insert your srolen card now"

In reply to Karacticus :

I hear you.

I've been asked if I feel safe at home.

Hell yes!

I see myself as Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino, but I'm still 20 years younger than him!

Edit: 32 years younger than him!

But that movie is 10 years old, so you’re only 22 years younger than the Clint Eastwood from the movie.
