While I'm not one of the East Coast Complainers (I'm East Coast but have no issue checking in around midnight), I will point out that your body clock is probably still on Pacific Time and not having any trouble staying up.
Damn...I tried to change this to "Oh no you didn't, Bitch!" threes time and Meh kept giving me the "something went wrong message". I blame the Westies for this! (specifically Washington! and @jaremelz - maybe you shot Biggie! :)
@mfladd Night night, sleep well. And maybe if you travel to the Best coast, I mean, West coast, you won't be so cranky. And iI can't help it, you still get one...
@unoriginal26 A house divided against itself can not stand. But a web forum often thrives on division.......or multiplication...............probably multiplication, with a little geometry. Or something. Old fart Wisdom.
@Teripie Ahhh...Sorry. I meant that for @jaremelz. That's twice now I responded mixing you two up (it's very odd). I know you are in FL, yet the last time I responded to her and put her in FL thinking of you. I am not sure why this is happening. I wish I could blame it on drugs or something, but I can't.
@mfladd What the hell, man? I mean, there's far worse people to get confused with, but still. And if I'm red, that means I've got Donut on my team so nah nah nah boo boo. Methinks you should try the drugs, perhaps it would help this condition of yours. At the very least, I could have a laugh.
@denboy that's funny. Our west we say your lucky you Texans get federal aid that way exceeds your tax contributions! I like @jont's plan: pay taxes in California and move to Texas to collect!
@denboy 2012: "a poll and found that about 1 in 3 of those surveyed believed that Texas has the right to secede from the United States, although only 18% would support secession and 75% would oppose secession.[29] In another poll, 60% of Texans surveyed opposed becoming an independent nation. However, 48% of Texas Republicans surveyed supported it.[30][31] The reaction from outside the state was also strongly split, including those who wanted to get rid of Texas.[28] Easties and Westies both say "Don't let the door hit your asses on the way out."
@DaveInSoCal That federal aid may be the only thing keeping Texas in the US.
I moved to Austin from the Northeast 4 years ago before coming to Dallas. It was like California was paying people to move to Austin....which is what it must feel like when you buy 3x the house for half the price.
@denboy I did think it was nice you would bring Texas into a topic that would bring both Westies and Easties together ;) I remember you lived in NH for a while. Is Texas a place you think you would stay?
@mfladd I've been in Texas for 4 years now and don't see me moving any time soon. Lots to offer here. There are plenty of places in the world I would live however so we'll see how long this lasts.
@mfladd I'm ready for Cowboys football to start, haven't gotten the FFL bug yet with all the fantasy baseball going on. Looking forward to getting in on mediocre madness this time around.
I've lived in a lot of different states in my life, including Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado. One of the things I've learned is that people in New Mexico and Colorado really, really hate Texas. Wonder why?
Thread image approve.
Hey, what happened to @Pavlov's beautiful GIF?
@Thumperchick
EAST COAST COMPLAINERS:
If Dave can do it, so can you.
I blame @Starblind for its disappearance. That or I'm really high and pressed delete. Shhhh.
While I'm not one of the East Coast Complainers (I'm East Coast but have no issue checking in around midnight), I will point out that your body clock is probably still on Pacific Time and not having any trouble staying up.
East Coaster here and still up. But guess what? You Westies still suck!
@mfladd
@jaremelz I know you didn't bitch!!!!
Damn...I tried to change this to "Oh no you didn't, Bitch!" threes time and Meh kept giving me the "something went wrong message". I blame the Westies for this! (specifically Washington! and @jaremelz - maybe you shot Biggie! :)
@mfladd
@mfladd I shot Smalls and brought Urkel to battle, suck it. And perhaps it kept failing because the internet was telling you to give up.
@jaremelz Urkel? that's how it is? K, I am bringing in my crew.
That's right, The Facts of Life cast. Hardcore Gangsta! Don't forget all these kids have done real time. As for giving up....
@mfladd
@mfladd Oh, and that's a nice Different Strokes picture above the words Facts of Life.
@jaremelz OH SHIT!!!!!!!! I was was thinking of Facts of Life before I looked for DS one.
This is what happens when I am sleep deprived on the East Coast. I hate you people! I am going to bed I have to travel tomorrow. G-Nite!
@mfladd Aw.. you still gave me one. Maybe there is hope for you yet ;)
@mfladd Night night, sleep well. And maybe if you travel to the Best coast, I mean, West coast, you won't be so cranky.
And iI can't help it, you still get one...
@jaremelz
@mfladd
suck it anything not east coast stompin on the east coast
A lot of thoughtful commentary on East Coast vs. West Coast can be found in Annie Hall, which is on Netflix Streaming this month.
@DaveInSoCal But it's SC. :( I really dislike this state.
@xarous well, I'm on Hilton head island. So maybe that's different? I mostly stay near coasts when i travel.
@DaveInSoCal Careful of the sharks. The coastal/tourist areas of the state are better than some of the backwood areas I find myself in. Safe travels.
@xarous Thanks! We're letting the little kids go swimming first. They're our shark detectors.
@DaveInSoCal Is that like hiking in the woods with a short, fat friend? Bear bait?
@mikibell Exactly. Don't have to out run the bear, just your friend.
But, good news: no sharks! Safe swimming so far. More news as events progress.
If you're tracking anything on FedEx, you might have noticed their warning that the entire West coast is on fire. Not always lucky us:
IMPORTANT!
FedEx is closely monitoring the wildfires in Alaska, California, Montana, Oregon, and Washington.
@KDemo true. That, and you don't have any water. Ok, maybe I empathize with Westies more than I thought.
@mfladd - Rained a little today, before that it's been the driest season since ever.
@KDemo We were almost giggling earlier because a few drops of water fell. Sucks, it does.
@jaremelz
@KDemo That picture sums us up completely!
@KDemo http://IsCaliforniaOnFire.com
@Collin1000 - Uh oh. Hope it doesn't affect Abe Vigoda.
@KDemo @jaremelz Funny we were talking about it last night because this is what I just woke up to
@mfladd I would likely make a deal with the devil for my child's soul if we could get rain like that.
@mfladd Whoa, is that a river or a flood?
edit: I'm pretty sure it's looped because I keep seeing the same drop.
I've been on the west coast since the 7th, it's been waaaaaay easier for me to check meh before going to bed.
I even bought a food saver tonight.
We are a divided nation.
@unoriginal26 A house divided against itself can not stand. But a web forum often thrives on division.......or multiplication...............probably multiplication, with a little geometry. Or something.
Old fart Wisdom.
@Teripie Sounds like something a Westie would say ;)
Your red, I am blue (p.s. mine is bigger) BTW, Good Morning!
@mfladd Nope. Never been west of the Rockies. Am now a proud citizen of the Redneck Rivera on the Florida Panhandle. On central time.
@Teripie And I think standard deviations fit in there somewhere as well.
@Teripie Ahhh...Sorry. I meant that for @jaremelz. That's twice now I responded mixing you two up (it's very odd). I know you are in FL, yet the last time I responded to her and put her in FL thinking of you. I am not sure why this is happening. I wish I could blame it on drugs or something, but I can't.
@mfladd What the hell, man? I mean, there's far worse people to get confused with, but still. And if I'm red, that means I've got Donut on my team so nah nah nah boo boo. Methinks you should try the drugs, perhaps it would help this condition of yours. At the very least, I could have a laugh.
@mfladd Feel free to blame it on my drugs. Lipator, Nexium, Plendil, stuff like that, old folk's drug cocktails.
@jaremelz seriously, they can't make me anymore dazed and confused than I am right now of why this is happening. p.s. I will take Church.
@Teripie Thanks for giving me a way out. Luckily, I haven't needed those drugs yet. Hey, at least your Lipitor is generic now. So much cheaper.
@mfladd That's ok, I'll just steal Sheila.
@jaremelz
but why are you in SC
@Lotsofgoats Because the tea party roads have destroyed his car and he's stuck there.
@Lotsofgoats
@WTFhqwhgads As a mascot I also endorse South Carolina and the Fighting Cocks.
Easties and Westies are lucky that Texas allows your Union to take our tax dollars. At least that's what I keep hearing down here.
@denboy that's funny. Our west we say your lucky you Texans get federal aid that way exceeds your tax contributions! I like @jont's plan: pay taxes in California and move to Texas to collect!
@denboy 2012: "a poll and found that about 1 in 3 of those surveyed believed that Texas has the right to secede from the United States, although only 18% would support secession and 75% would oppose secession.[29] In another poll, 60% of Texans surveyed opposed becoming an independent nation.

@mfladd Texas cities are full of Westies and Easties (like me), especially with all the corporate HQ's which have migrated to Texas.
With all the oil recently found in Texas it looks like the Fed and Texas will keep sucking off each other's utters for a while.
@denboy I did think it was nice you would bring Texas into a topic that would bring both Westies and Easties together ;) I remember you lived in NH for a while. Is Texas a place you think you would stay?
@mfladd I've been in Texas for 4 years now and don't see me moving any time soon. Lots to offer here. There are plenty of places in the world I would live however so we'll see how long this lasts.
@denboy It's also getting to that time to discuss FFL. I want revenge on @capguncowboy from our deals.woot ffl days.
@mfladd Oh no, I'm really scared of your ACL injuries and concussion riddled team!
@denboy See what I mean!!!!
@capguncowboy Hey Johnny Ringo!
@mfladd I'm ready for Cowboys football to start, haven't gotten the FFL bug yet with all the fantasy baseball going on. Looking forward to getting in on mediocre madness this time around.
I've lived in a lot of different states in my life, including Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado. One of the things I've learned is that people in New Mexico and Colorado really, really hate Texas.
Wonder why?
@Teripie I just know that I want to elaborate!
@Teripie
we're loudmouth assholes?
@DaveInSoCal more like DaveInSoCar.
Another midnight check in on the east coast.
@DaveInSoCal I am still here and you still suck (Westie)
@DaveInSoCal So, I do this every night on the East Coast. Should I be posting about it every time? Is this the new Facebooking thread?
@DaveInSoCal West Coast Less Coast
Proof that East Coast is Best Coast:
Meh time is 12 AM EST, not CST, MST, or any other timezone.
