I'm seeing a whole new trend for NOTHING here - other posters giving us material for NOTHING. This should make K very happy. I can imagine he would enjoy getting more NOTHING out of NOTHING.

I know...I just realized there was more NOTHING going on out of NOTHING than in it. Someone suggested a new forum called Controversy of the Day which I thought was NOTHING but brilliant.

Like whether a tipsy woman would not be arrested if she were in a bikini rather than a bathing suit? Sounds like NOTHING unless there's more to the story. Was she petting Harvey while she was leaning against the wall? Tipsy woman jumps on cross trainer in hilarious viral video | Express.co.uk

There are several threads going on now that I would bet the Master Cylinder of each one has had a little Nip early today and is probably a cheap date. It's NOTHING but nuts out there I tell ya. It's safe with NOTHING. Off to the Doctor for him to tell me I'm fat and ugly. Last time he said that I demanded a second opinion and he said you're dopey too! :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl::clap2::1rotfl::1rotfl:

You can never have too much NOTHING.. But I agree, I even mentioned in a thread that got deleted.. I thought when one retires the drama would decrease and the happiness would increase. It just goes to show how wrong I can be at times.. lol

NOTHING could be further from the truth. The drama here is probably inspired by 10 people. The rest of us love it here.

I think we need to take NOTHING on the road...we NOTHING but crack ourselves up.

Nucky 09-18-2018 05:13 PM

I NOTHING but gained 5lbs since I got home. 7 weeks in Hell's Half Acre and gain NOTHING. 3 weeks back in Paradise and up we go 5 big ones. Time to buckle up. There is going to be a Tsunami in the pool twice :super: each day. Just have to finish the Pizza & Ice Cream in the fridge? It's a battle! :1rotfl:

C'mon, Nuckster, just having that pizza and ice cream in the fridge puts on 5lbs. If you eat it you will put on 15lbs - DON'T DO IT!!! Look who's talking, the person who just came in from a party and semi-overindulged. Thank goodness I had a lot of people to catch up with or it could have been NOTHING but a disaster.

I NOTHING but made it through without the Ice Cream. It was much easier because it was Breyers Not Publix Brand. I would have turned this place into a parking lot to get to the Publix Ice Cream. Recovery has started. Two more days to go. The Bat Mobile is tight in the hips, I have to do something. NOTHING but Bluefin for us, Seafood a Go-Go! :1rotfl:

I hear you, my friend. When I burned my foot (not food - lol) the other night, for some reason all I wanted was chocolate (sympathy craving). It's a good think I had none in the house. Then all day yesterday I was craving stuff I shouldn't eat. I did cave, but not much thankfully. The biggest thing is to identify those things that set off the avalanche for you. First, identify specific items like the pizza or ice cream, then break it down to what is causing the addictive tendency. For most, it is sugar. What I've learned to do, and thankfully I have the cooperation of those I live with, is not to bring those items into my house. Just like not having the chocolate in the house - it forced me to deal with my craving in a different way, usually by diversion. For example, that night I just went to bed - problem solved.

Some people can eat anything and limit themselves to normal portions, but then there's people like me that just have to avoid certain things for my own good as much as I might love to eat them. What do they call it, we should eat to live not live to eat.

Anyway, enough of food counseling for now, but I feel your pain, brother. Today is Wednesday, September 19th, and I'm off to work. See you all later. Have a good day and don't forget your NOTHING. Ha! - thought I'd forget, didn't ya?

I don't have the cooperation of my better half. He can eat whatever he likes and I'm the one who gains the weight. Kind of like The Portrait of Dorian Gray where I am the portrait. I love food and have NOTHING for self control.

Kenswing 09-19-2018 09:29 AM

Boy, you guys were up early this morning..

Why torture yourself when you're in retirement or so close to retirement? All this gym and diet talk is NOTHING but depressing me. I think I'll have a chocolate shake for breakfast.. lol

That is a very funny simile. You used LIKE and not for NOTHING.

You would. That's why I will have to limit the amount of time I spend around you when you finally get to TV, after me of course. You'd be NOTHING but a bad influence. Lol

NOTHING but vultures out there. How sad that they need to feel superior by tearing less fortunate people apart.

What are they putting in the water down there? Can't be NOTHING good..

It seems the general tone of the forums has really turned negative over the past several months.

You don't even have to commit a crime anymore you simply have to be potentially capable of doing it. Innocent until proven guilty is non existant and personal preservation is all that matters and here I thought NOTHING was all that matters.

Kenswing, I NOTHING but disagree with the assessment you have made. We are dealing with many different things in this life of ours. I feel that it is not as Funny as it could be because a person could stand on their heads and spit Chicklets and never even walk in the shadow of our Departed brother. I don't mean the Big Departed just Departed from the day to day operation.

We have had you fighting the beast in the woods, Mrs. FW with her Gizzard removed, Mrs. Abby with wildlife dilemmas and various extremity problemos and me with the daily struggles of trying to put Humpty Dumpty back together after 40 plus years of hard living. On top of this we lost our brother with the Manifesto and today I heard from JSW, he is doing fine.

It's not easy living here, waking each day to the same feeling as being on the Love Boat but somehow we venture thru. On top of this, we passed another anniversary of 9/11. You are an accurate guy so if you notice negativity then maybe there is something. I'll do my best to be a positive influence on those around me.

It may seem a little dumpy now because of the absence of Shecky Greene (tomwed). NOTHING'S original funny man! :blahblahblah:

I don't think anyone is complaining about NOTHING but rather the other threads on here.

On the other hand, I'm NOTHING but delighted that you heard from jsw. I was just thinking of him the other day. Please tell him he is missed and I hope he is doing well. Such a nice fellow.

Worried about my buddy, tom, though.

Take a deep breath Nucky. I was talking about the general forums and how much they have seemed to change. NOTHING will always perform its intended purpose - NOTHING.. And I'm happy about that.

I'm wanting some clarification on this - various extremities? Did you already hear that I almost stapled my finger today? :ohdear: I am such a mess, I swear.......well, I kinda did. lol

Anyway, I'm so darned tired right now that even doing NOTHING is difficult.

I'm sorry you had such a rough day. I think your day was harder than mine. I really hate sitting around doing NOTHING (well not this NOTHING) at work that I talked to someone there about changing things up so I'm busier. Yeah I know, I'm nuts. The problem is I never had an easy job and now that I do, I don't know what to do with it.

If we lived closer, fw, I'd bring you to work with me and we could sit around doing NOTHING there. At least that way maybe we could keep each other out of trouble.

Everybody sees things differently. I think the other threads have been about medium for some time since the personal attacks have lightened up a whole lot. Certain key posters have been NOTHING but spanked and have calmed down. I love it when things are heated and we can come over here and do what? NOTHING! :clap2:

You do have a point with what you say and I just noticed that recently myself. It is better for sure in that sense and NOTHING but about time.

Well, you NOTHING but burned yourself and took the bag o' peas off and tried to fix it with BenGay because some jackwagon got the story screwed up. OOOps that was me! Various because of the Tens Machine or whatever it was. Just having NOTHING but a little fun. :)

fw102807 09-19-2018 08:09 PM

I'm a bit shell shocked so I have NOTHING to say right now. I need to chill for a while.

tomwed 09-19-2018 08:19 PM

I'm sorry I was away. I had a guest from out of town and nothing else seemed to matter for a little while. I apologize and if it ever happens again I promise to give you all a heads up so you don't worry. I'm not feeling very funny right now and don't feel up to writing a story. Give me a little time and I'm sure I will be my old self pretty soon.

Oh right, I forgot about my wrist. It hasn't hurt since. Boy, you have a good memory. As for me, right about now I have NOTHING in the memory banks.

I just love your posts, Nucky. They brighten my day. :1rotfl:

I notice something but the code of N.J. is in force, never nitpick about NOTHING when someone else is down. Glad you checked in. :mademyday:
