why do i hate that artist thing that people keep posting on my facebook so much? why am i such a jerk?

we are NOT this and we do NOT do this. really bugs me. just do what you do, dude.

The gym I used to go to was run by an unstable guy who would post signs and copies of correspondence relating to his feud with the bar next door. What good did he hope would come of putting up a sign accusing them of letting raw sewage leak into the showers?

More akin to the NO WIFI HERE sign, he taped a rude, long-winded notice on the window saying that their internet cafe was for CH337AH GYM MEMBERS ONLY.

Yes! I was going to mention that gym, too.

worst sign I ever saw on a business was "STUFF THAT IN YOUR TOWEL, TALIBAN" from some auto parts store post 9/11.

I WANT SOME FREEDOM SPARK PLUGS

My boss went out of town and I got to live the high life, using his card to park in the parking deck across the street instead of parking underneath the freeway overpass half a mile away.

But the deck management has this typewritten sign (TYPEWRITTEN, I said) taped to one of the booth windows handing down THE LAW to the no-good valets who work the Downtown Marriott a block over. NO LOUD MUSIC. NO SQUEALING TIRES. NO SPEEDING DOWN THE RAMPS.

It made me (a.) hesitate ever staying at the Marriott and letting valet service park my car and (b.) ever parking in this deck under my own monetary volition should I ever endanger myself to a fleet of servicemen who squeal tires and speed down the ramps.

they don't do that, as the sign commands them against it

is this a 'Lost' thing or

https://www.facebook.com/Officialmenardsmemes

wtf is menards

It's ... a discount store, right?

Hardware store.

No results found for "menarche memes".

Thank god.

menards is like a long-running, decidedly less glamorous version of Lowes or Home Depot

save big money, big big money, when you shop menards.

With a painfully catchy jingle at :26 here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl-_AaIedZQ

xp Clouds knows.

More shirts. This time, it looks like it originated as a facebook meme, was turned into a shirt, then photographed and re-memed

lol at you fellow midwesterners

I wish I could find the full version of the Menard's jingle. It's right up there with the Ideal jingle (If you've got a passion for fashion/if you've got a craving for savings/take the wheel of your automobile and swing on down to... IDEAL) for insane catchiness.

will rep for aly & aj's rush, a fair amount of ashlee and lilo as 'stands the test of time'. m2m is woefully unremembered.

whoops, totally wrong thread

Menards was on the receiving end of one of my favorite MST3K gags during the opening credits for The Giant Spider Invasion.

lol at you fellow midwesterners

Yeah, after seeing who's responded to this, especially clouds, I'm like "oh yeah, so that's where I heard of this place."

"Menards" must always be said loudly in the manner of the man from the commercials. Also I was really shocked a couple years ago to hear that John Menard Jr. is worth seven billion dollars - I had no idea his empire was so vast. I was also sad that he wasn't the white haired yelling man from the commercial.

I was going to pipe up with 'no I think Mendard's a disease' but then I remembered I was thinking about Meniere's

:/

I thought he was too!! Sadly, he passed long ago :(

Still they're much better than the Fleet Farm ads

A friend in the know told me very disturbing dirt on J0hn M3n@rd, which is corroborated by the news and court filings. He's fucking nuts and vicious. And horny, apparently.

Which fucking SUCKS b/c I went to one of their stores for the first time a couple months ago and it was a wonderland and their employees are so much knowledgeable than Home Depot's.

that varies by store/region, really. back when we had more actual hardware stores and lumber yards, menards was known as the least clueful people on the planet

You can hit me in Home Depot
Hit me by the gutter guards
But baby
When you're angry
Don't you hit me in Menard's

That's a pretty interesting jingle.

Testicle-based Menard's jokes were my brother's favorite circa 1998

Shocked to learn this place is from the USA and not Canada or the UK or Belize or something.

Undeniable Adult Truths

1. Part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

3. I take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning joined up writing really necessary?

7. Google maps really needs to start their directions on number 5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my street.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blu-Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection, again.

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.

14. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

15. I think the freezer deserves a light as well..

16. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.

17. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

18. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?

19. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent an idiot from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!

20. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

21. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their mobile phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1 .7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time.

FILE UNDER: Fictional first world problems

aaargh FU imaginary "truth" creator

peculiar mix of US and UK English as per. i swear if i ever hear a Brit use the word "ghetto" in a context that isn't historical or quoting a song title i will crotch-punch the fucker

is that #22

if you ever hear an American use it you should still do that because it is almost always a racist

yeah i know i think my objection is to Brits incorporating extra racist euphemisms when we have a broad and nuanced selection of our own

"joined up writing" is a Britishism, right? Do Americans say that?

That list is one of the worst things posted in the thread. Every single item makes me want to argue back with the poster (for different reasons), the style is atrocious and deflates even the potential for some kind of snappy comic rhythm or EVEN Chicken Soup For The Soul 'words of wisdom,' they meander between statements and questions for no reason, the premise that the author is an 'adult' seems flimsy at best, and basically it all sounds like hastily-jotted ideas for a really painful, lumpy stand-up routine. And ugggggh the cutesyness. I can just hear the badly-concealed desperation for a laugh, the 'performance' notes leaking into what was a totally natural conversation before this person came in. All that's missing is ''Chocolate? Equals yum. YOU know what I'm talking about, biyotch!''

the compiled wisdom of a very boring person
