I'm dating an older woman!

I'm waiting for the "MadBaggins Christmas Special" which will feature a reunion of all our beloved characters. The cousin, the aunt, Red, Kate, Thames, even the homeless potsmoking guy. It will be a new classic, I just know it will.
 
Hmm, I dunno, it's starting to weary me, much as trying to watch nuBSG with all its emo and angst.

Except here it's, uhhh, boredom. With a smattering of emo and angst.

MB, you wnt to bail him out and you have the money, you bail him out.

BUT...

make sure you get some guarantees he isn't going to flee interstate under an assumed name. That will only lead to more drama in this thread.



Oh, wait...

Did he listen? NO. I'm so mad at him.
Yes, it's annoying when people don't listen to your advice, isn't it? :p (Just speaking for the people who lamented your doing that before.)

He stole the car out of, in his words an act of "impotent desperation".
I'm beginning to see why you guys are such good friends.

What should I do? My girlfriend is STEADFAST that I shouldn't bail him out and I don't blame her.
Heh. She has a claim on your money, of course. (What money, by the way? Is it your aunt's?)

On the other hand he is my oldest and dearest friend. He's helped me out in the past. I'd feel slight guilt if I didn't help him today.
I hear you, and I won't even say something callous like "maybe you're not doing him a favour by letting him think he'll always get away with stupidity." But man, it WAS pretty dumb of him.
I'm afraid that jails are full of stupid people (especially the friendless ones), much more than evil people. Maybe he'd fit right in. :devil:

(Incidently, how do you spell "hos"? That doesn't look right and I wanted to type "ho's" but the apostrophe would be wrong since it's not possessive, it's plural. "Hoes" was another possibility but isn't that somet kind of farmer thing?)
'Hos' is the right, or at least, canonic spelling. Of course it's just the colourful transcription of a coloquial semantic demotivation (mitigation of the meaning) of the word 'whores'.

It worked for Star Wars!
 
so, the rule is "bros before hos", but only until you get yourself a ho, and then it goes out the window? So, in your opinion, the rule only counts if you don't HAVE a ho, so can't actually make the decision?

:lol:

Interesting that you've set Thames's story up to be basically having the same problem as yourself: girlfriend cheats on you. In Thames's case he did something about it, even if it was stupid, while you, as the "hero" of the story, went submissive, gave in, and did whatever your gf wanted after she cuckolded you. Your revenge? You appologized for her cheating on you, went to bed, and slept with her, and didn't enjoy it! I kinda like Thames's story better at this point! Any chance you can stop here, and let Thames take over your account? Might be just what this story needs: a change in the head writer to shake things up!

:guffaw: Didn't think about this the first time I read through that last post! The guy notorious for ignoring advice is upset because someone ignored his advice! Might it be because Thames knows you are pretty good at picking the greater of any and all evils?
 
Hi guys! Sorry for not updating for the last few days. I broke my leg.

Or Thames broke me leg, more accurately. Not Thames, in fact, but his actions. His selfish actions.

So I bailed the bastardfuck out. He's my oldest friend, I had to do it. My girlfriend was mad, but it was my money. Unfortunately he also needed somewhere to stay because his parents have pretty much disowned him (and he could hardly go back to his girlfriend!) The cops wouldn't let him out unless I agreed to let him stay. I told my girlfriend it would just be for the night...

Of course, he was still there four days later. Typical Thames. We were playing Wii one night when there was a loud BANG. Some guys were throwing rocks at our door. Thames and I were going to go out and kick their asses, but then Thames suddenly looked worried and said "no, don't." I didn't listen, I wasn't going to let anyone do that to my girlfriend's door. So I ran outside and chased after them.

It was icy. I was running on ice. Do I have to draw you a diagram? I fell pretty bad. I managed to get up...then they threw a rock at me. The fuckstains waited until I was down to throw rocks at me. Cowards. I was so full of rage I charged at them and fell right down an incline and broke my leg. It hurt like Hell.

What hurt more was in hospital Thames told me that he actually knew the guys, two of them were his ho girlfriend's brothers. He owed them money. That's right, it was all Thames fault. He brought thugs to my home through his actions. THE KIDS COULD HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF THAMES.

He is not my friend anymore. I want nothing to do with him. I was so mad that when the cops came to ask about the rock guys I told them Thames had set the whole thing up. He looked shocked. I wanted to make him pay.

I told the cops I was lying five minutes later and blamed the meds I was on for my leg. At least I scared-up Thames pretty bad for a minute. I told him if I EVER see him near me or mine again I won't hesitate to beat him up with my bare hands. I can do it, I used to when we would wrestle each other. He backed out the room, looking sad. I think he could tell a chapter in his life had come to a close.

I haven't felt like coming online much since, my girlfriend has been waiting on my hand and foot. She is so good for me. I'm going to enjoy this holiday season, broken leg or not. As for Thames? He can go to Hell.

Straight to Hell.
 
Hi guys! Sorry for not updating for the last few days. I broke my leg.
Condolences. Hope you're not in pain.

Hey, you're the one who bailed him out.
Thames suddenly looked worried and said "no, don't."
What part of that did you not understand?
I didn't listen, I wasn't going to let anyone do that to my girlfriend's door.
I hate to break it to you, but you're not a silver knight.
So I ran outside and chased after them.
Very clever. :rolleyes:
THE KIDS COULD HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF THAMES.
You're such a drama queen! :lol:
I was so mad that when the cops came to ask about the rock guys I told them Thames had set the whole thing up.
More stupidity. A less than truthful deposition won't help nail those guys.
Tell the cops one lie and you lose credibility for ever.
I told the cops I was lying five minutes later and blamed the meds I was on for my leg.
Oh. Okay. Still not very reliable. And... probably not in pain after all.
I haven't felt like coming online much since, my girlfriend has been waiting on my hand and foot. She is so good for me.
I'm suddenly reminded of this Third Rock From the Sun episode where Dick fakes a longer convalescence so as to get pampered. :lol:
 
I don't think cops care where someone is staying after they are bailed out of jail. That's not the only unrealistic part of the story, but it's one of the biggest.

In reading the rest of the post, seems pretty clear that you had it right before: YOU broke your leg

So I bailed the bastardfuck out. He's my oldest friend, I had to do it. My girlfriend was mad, but it was my money.
so far, so good. Against everyone's advice, including your girlfriend, but that's par for the course...

Unfortunately he also needed somewhere to stay because his parents have pretty much disowned him (and he could hardly go back to his girlfriend!)
Didn't we meet him at a homeless shelter? Maybe I've got characters confused, but seems like he had a place before he met you. Not suggesting he should have gone there, but mixing his parents in is confusing the story...

The cops wouldn't let him out unless I agreed to let him stay.
that part just doesn't make any sense. Other than telling him to cut the shit, and maybe stick around town in case he's needed again, the cops rarely care what you have for sleeping arrangements, especially if you have family in the town...

I told my girlfriend it would just be for the night...

Of course, he was still there four days later. Typical Thames.
Of course. Typical MadBaggins, really. Did you remind him that he needed to leave after one night? Do anything to get him to leave? Nope, because...

We were playing Wii one night when there was a loud BANG.
playing Wii and hanging out, why would he think you wanted him to leave?

Some guys were throwing rocks at our door. Thames and I were going to go out and kick their asses, but then Thames suddenly looked worried and said "no, don't."
Thames, in the past 4 days, had time to give out his new address? Even if he was only staying 1 night?

I didn't listen, I wasn't going to let anyone do that to my girlfriend's door. So I ran outside and chased after them.
Here's the part where the broken leg is entirely your fault. You don't listen to anyone else, especially when they have a firmer grasp on the situation than you do. Drug dealers, legal advice, sex on the job, sex with your cousin, you pretty much just make the first implusive decision possible, and then refuse to back down, because that's how a "man" acts...

It was icy. I was running on ice. Do I have to draw you a diagram?
a picture is worth a thousand poorly-constructed words, so please do...

I fell pretty bad. I managed to get up...then they threw a rock at me. The fuckstains waited until I was down to throw rocks at me.
1 rock, or several rocks? You've said both. Also, you said they waited to throw at you until you were down, but you just said you got up and THEN they threw. Which is it?

Cowards. I was so full of rage I charged at them and fell right down an incline and broke my leg. It hurt like Hell.
Did you rage more than rage? Based upon your previous lines, you'd think that they would have taken that moment to pelt you with more rocks (or rock), or otherwise beat you, since you were going beserker on them and then were suddenly helpless. What happened after you fell down?

What hurt more was in hospital Thames told me that he actually knew the guys, two of them were his ho girlfriend's brothers. He owed them money.
He started to mention this, but you flew off the handle about defending your door's honor, and ran outside. Remember?

That's right, it was all Thames fault. He brought thugs to my home through his actions. THE KIDS COULD HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF THAMES.
Under what scenario? The kids follow you outside to help defend the door? Seemed like they only wanted Thames, not even you, much less the kids. Who know? If you hadn't been yelling and charging at them, it might not have even gone that far...

He is not my friend anymore. I want nothing to do with him. I was so mad that when the cops came to ask about the rock guys I told them Thames had set the whole thing up. He looked shocked. I wanted to make him pay.
Of course, lying to cops in an investigation is a crime, you realize? Either way, if Thames has been following the rest of your story, he's probably about done with you, anyway. What good comes out of your friendship?

I told the cops I was lying five minutes later and blamed the meds I was on for my leg.
which is why you're writing this from jail? Lying and feeling guilty would indicate that the meds weren't to blame. If you said you couldn't remember, and then later did, THAT might make sense. "oops, I told a complete lie before" doesn't work.

At least I scared-up Thames pretty bad for a minute. I told him if I EVER see him near me or mine again I won't hesitate to beat him up with my bare hands. I can do it, I used to when we would wrestle each other.
At which point I'd have gone and talked to the cops again. You just threatened his life, you realize. Another crime...

He backed out the room, looking sad. I think he could tell a chapter in his life had come to a close.
or realized that his free ride, and bail money/wii games, had left him. And a supposed friend threatened to kill him because of something that friend did to HIMSELF after Thames told you NOT to go out there.

I haven't felt like coming online much since, my girlfriend has been waiting on my hand and foot.
thought your leg was the problem? Hand and foot also injured?

She is so good for me.
over the cheating already? Only a week to get that image out of your head? Lucky man.

I'm going to enjoy this holiday season, broken leg or not. As for Thames? He can go to Hell.

Straight to Hell.
that's the holiday spirit! :lol:
 
And I was so looking forward to the Christmas special where everybody gathered around the pathetic looking tree nobody else wanted and realized that the spirit of Christmas was bigger than any tree or present or anything else. :(

Remember this line for later... it may become important later in the story.

He's my oldest friend, I had to do it.
Isn't Thames the pothead you met last season? Based on that alone, I'm inlcined to think that you don't hang onto friends for very long if he's the oldest...

We were playing Wii one night when there was a loud BANG. Some guys were throwing rocks at our door.
You know... if people are out on the neighborhood causing problems, they aren't going to throw rocks at doors. They're going to throw them through windows. It's okay, we can overlook the IQ's of your assailants.

Thames and I were going to go out and kick their asses, but then Thames suddenly looked worried and said "no, don't." I didn't listen, I wasn't going to let anyone do that to my girlfriend's door. So I ran outside and chased after them.
You did that all wrong! You're supposed to tell Thames that you have to jump online for a consult, and then ignore all the advice given!

[quote) I was so full of rage I charged at them and fell right down an incline and broke my leg. It hurt like Hell. [/quote]
You know... if we combine you peeing blood last season plus your spells of rage, plus anything else we dig up, maybe we can make an episode of House. Nothing would bring more joy to my heart than witnessing House berate MB. :)

That's right, it was all Thames fault. He brought thugs to my home through his actions.
So, the fact that you didn't think your plan all the way through means that Thames is to blame? To be fair, Thames told you not to go out, and if you had listened to Thames, you wouldn't have gotten on the ice. Way to screw that one up.
THE KIDS COULD HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF THAMES.
No, they wouldn't have. Haw do I know?
A)If they were intent on harm or causing damage, they wouldn't have been throwing rocks at doors! There are much better ways to go about that sort of thing!
B)If they were all that serious, they wouldn't have fled after you broke your leg. They wuld have gone back to the house, and while you were lying there in agony, they would have had their ways with Thames, the girlfriend and the children.

He is not my friend anymore. I want nothing to do with him. I was so mad that when the cops came to ask about the rock guys I told them Thames had set the whole thing up. He looked shocked. I wanted to make him pay.
That still wouldn't make Thames responsible for breaking your leg. Was it the same cop from the time you Stone Cold Stunnered the cousin? That would be an interesting twist!

I haven't felt like coming online much since, my girlfriend has been waiting on my hand and foot.
On me. It's "waiting on me hand and foot." These adult expressions are really tough for you, aren't they?


Unfortunately he also needed somewhere to stay because his parents have pretty much disowned him (and he could hardly go back to his girlfriend!)
Didn't we meet him at a homeless shelter? Maybe I've got characters confused, but seems like he had a place before he met you. Not suggesting he should have gone there, but mixing his parents in is confusing the story...
I seem to have a recollection of Thames having his own apartment last season as well.
 
we need a MB encyclopdeia or something for quick reference. Pretty obvious he's working without a show bible, so SOMEONE should be keeping track. Thames didn't show up originally as a homeless guy that came home from the soap kitchen to watch PPV wrestling?
