Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-24T15:29:41-05:00
Haven't seen you come up on youtube in some time. That's too bad.
BruceP - Chameleon Prime 2016-01-24T15:31:41-05:00
@Micah,
Sorry about that. I've been sick almost every day since right after Xmas. My plan is to record another video today and it should be up tonight or tomorrow morning.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-24T15:47:25-05:00
As I live and breathe. Another ghost!
Welcome back, Chameleon!!!
How's it going? Besides being sick.
BruceP - Chameleon Prime 2016-01-24T15:49:59-05:00
Thanks Trinkets! Other than having been sick, it's pretty good. Especially since we don't get any snow here. ;)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-24T15:56:55-05:00
That sucks, chameleon. Look forward to your videos resuming!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-24T16:01:40-05:00
Hello Prime! Sorry you were under the weather. Has everything else been good?
BruceP - Chameleon Prime 2016-01-24T16:02:36-05:00
Hi Geist! Yep, everything else has been good. :)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-24T16:03:16-05:00
Lucky you Prime. My area is still digging out from the snow. Don't think I will be going to work tomorrow
BruceP - Chameleon Prime 2016-01-24T16:04:46-05:00
Sucks about the crazy snow. I hope everyone is doing ok.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-24T16:26:10-05:00
Yeah, it sucks because I only have a couple inches, and that's all going to probably melt today. Good thing we're getting more tomorrow.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-24T16:40:56-05:00
@Prime: I am doing well. Just found out it's official: public transportation will be very limited tomorrow so I will be calling out from work. That will let me get more work done
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-24T16:58:32-05:00
So by not going to work you can get more work done. Just sounds funny to say it like that.
Lord Zombitten 2016-01-24T18:09:33-05:00
Oh dang! I missed the Chameleon!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-24T19:04:35-05:00
Well, they're good at hiding like that.

Well, they're good at hiding like that.
Zem, you win the Internet for the rest of the year!!
I haven't laughed that hard in a while.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-24T19:55:19-05:00
+1 thumbs up.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-24T21:28:37-05:00
@LZ: I completely blame you
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-24T23:39:47-05:00
Blame him for what? Missing the chameleon?
Andres Cacciamani 2016-01-25T02:16:51-05:00
Booo IOS App! Get it on Android and I will def buy it!
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-25T07:38:15-05:00
Good morning all.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T09:05:02-05:00
Morning Trinkets. I get another day off thanks to old man winter
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T09:14:26-05:00
Good Morning Kittens! I hope everyone weathered the weekend ok! ;)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-25T09:47:04-05:00
Oh lookie, another android crybaby. I like android better, but jeez. Then again, it would've been the same way if iPhones didn't have it yet but android did.
Lord Zombitten 2016-01-25T10:31:42-05:00
Blame me? For what?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T10:38:07-05:00
@LZ, on my part? For being awesome! Its all your fault!
Three days....if I can survive this, I can relax for a week.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T11:03:40-05:00
@LZ: I had to blame someone.
I made a white chicken chili last night that uses three kinds of hot peppers. Jalapeño, poblano and Anaheim.
I thought, since these are the milder peppers, why not chop them up with my bar hands?
Despite washing my hands twice, I still must have had some of the pepper on my hands because some of my fingers started to burn. It didn't hurt, just stung for a few hours.
I thought "Why didn't LZ warn me about the evil of peppers?"
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T11:07:41-05:00
For the record, I tasted some of the finished product and it's good. Not as spicy the next morning as when I made it last night.
I will be eating this for the rest of the week.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T11:09:07-05:00
Morning GM & BaKhan. Cabin fever hasn't set in yet?
@Geist: Why would we have cabin fever? 6 feet of snow and we still make our way to Tim Horton's for a coffee
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T11:17:16-05:00
I remember working at a gas station years ago, there was a major blizzard and it took me over an hour longer to get to work. There was only two of us there, the other guy just walked a couple of blocks. It was so dead we were building snowmen all around the lot! It was actually one of the best shifts I ever had there. Mountains of snow don't really slow us down all that much out here, which is good, because if they did we wouldn't get much done!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T11:31:38-05:00
@GM & BaKhan: I was kidding. I know my neighbors to the north handles snow better than us D.C. folks.
6 feet of snow would send us into such a tizzy, we would need liquid therapy for months afterwards
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T11:36:27-05:00
@Geist, precisely why prohibition never caught on up here... ;) Barrels of whiskey are sometimes the only answer! ;) In all truth though, so far this winter has been exceptionally mild for us, both in temperature and accumulation of snow. Knock on wood!
@BaKhan: Yeah, but it will make up for it later this year. Snow covered Stampede most likely. :P
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T11:49:21-05:00
I was reading some of the D.C. news websites and they said that right before the storm, booze delivery was up to record orders. Seemed people prefer to have a large stock of booze on hand over food when we get a ton of snow.
Speaking of which, I am nearly out of the Apple flavored Crown Royal I purchased a few days ago.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T11:51:37-05:00
@GM, you never know! I've seen snow here every month but July, so time will tell! When I moved here in 92, it was -12 with ice and snow on Aug 18th (three days before my b-day, thanks Calgary!)! I was a sad sad boy!
Lord Zombitten 2016-01-25T12:08:14-05:00
I'm sorry, Geist! I've made that mistake before. With habañeros and ghost peppers. It literally felt like my hands were on fire. The heat pain came in wist can be described as flickering waves. I could imagine and almost see the flames wrapping themselves around my hands. I learned my lesson never to cut peppers with bare hands.
I've never had that problem...and I've had to dice/slice cases of hot peppers when I worked in kitchens.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T12:24:10-05:00
@GM: my fingers were burning despite handling what I thought was the milder peppers. If you were handling the spicier variety, I don't know how your skin survived
@Geist: By having burned the feeling out of them over the years. Though, since I stopped working in the kitchen, most feeling has returned.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T12:31:39-05:00
I bet it was GM's working in the kitchen the prevented the burns. His skin would have been tougher (calluses) due to handling all the hot pans, excesive hand washing, etc. Thats my guess.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T12:53:06-05:00
@BaKhan: that would do it. I didn't work in the cooking business long enough to get those calluses.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T12:54:43-05:00
On another note, how is your ticker BaKhan?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T13:15:20-05:00
@Geist, me either, actually I've never cooked in a commercial kitchen, but I've fixed some plumbing in quite a few. One of the reasons why I absolutely will not eat at some restaurants... ;)
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T13:17:51-05:00
@Geist, so far so good. I go in on the 4th to get that endoscopic radiology done (x-ray the backside of my heart to see properly how big that hole is), and my stress test is on the 18th. I have to admit when I got the call about the x-ray (which I have to be put under for) I got a cold chill, I'm way more freaked out about it than I even let on to myself. Sssshhhh, don't tell me about it! ;)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T13:47:15-05:00
I am sure you will get through this with flying colors.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-25T13:55:57-05:00
SNOW!!! Tons and tons of it!
What wouldn't we give for
that extra bit more
that's all we live for
why should we be fated to
do nothing but brood on
snow, magical snow, wonderful snow, marvelous snow, beautiful snow, snow, glorious snow, glorious snoooooow-and-lots-of-ice!!!
`
If you couldn't gather, we're getting a ton of snow now. And I'm finally happy with winter this year.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-25T14:00:25-05:00
For some reason, I want to sing the Lumberjack Song, though that's about a barber who wanted to be a cross-dressing canadian logger, not snow. Well, it has canada in it.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-25T14:01:32-05:00
The only bad thing is that I have to drive in it as soon as I finish eating. And that's when the wind should pick up and visibility should be negative. And did I mention ice? I'm used to it after this winter, but it's not something you want to have to worry about in addition to not being able to see heavy traffic.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T14:25:01-05:00
@Zem, just take your time, leave plenty of space, assume people will do the dumbest thing they can, and you should be just fine. ;)
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-25T14:26:55-05:00
That's what I always do. Thankfully I'll be leaving right about in the emptiest time, I hope. I've been wrong about these things before, and I have a long ways to go with it.
Lord Zombitten 2016-01-25T14:31:55-05:00
We finally hád good snowfall Saturday night through Sunday morning. My snowblower (which I bought used) worked great...until the belt broke.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-25T14:48:05-05:00
Yeah! My new game got here! At least the regular one. The "politically incorrect" nsfw deck was signed this weekend and will likely get here before I have a chance to play this. The Contender.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T14:48:39-05:00
Waiting to hear if the Metro system will be up and running tomorrow. I can stand working from home again
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-25T14:49:49-05:00
Oh, plus, the thing I'm leaving for now is my dad's birthday. Famous Daves for the win! And free (to me)!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T16:45:59-05:00
Still don't know if I can make it to work tomorrow.
Does anyone want to finish cleaning my bathroom? I hate this chore.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-25T16:49:59-05:00
Famous Dave's! !!!!!
I love that place.
The original one was up in Heyward, WI. I got to eat there abut 6 years ago. Sooo good. Then the place burnt down last winter. They said they were rebuilding it. Never heard if it's finished or not.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-25T16:51:41-05:00
No offense to LZ(I haven't had your sauces yet), but the sweet and zesty?(purple bottle) and the Devil's pit(black bottle) are fantastic.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-25T16:52:11-05:00
BTW LZ, what does it take to get some of your hottest sauce?
....Surviving these three days just got a LOT harder.
Who needs to know when a MANAGER is let go? Definitely not payroll. *worldendingsarcasm*
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T17:17:33-05:00
I bumped into Famous Dave himself at a bbq battle they had in D.C. a few years ago. He was rolling around in one of those motorized wheelchairs. I didn't stick around to see if he won the battle or not.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-25T17:37:40-05:00
@GM, was it your manager?
Lord Zombitten 2016-01-25T17:39:02-05:00
Gaaah! Once again, I wish people around here would learn what my job duties are! Gaaaaaaahhhhh!
Lord Zombitten 2016-01-25T17:42:16-05:00
@Trinkets: I would have two ways of going about that. I either need to get more empties and make a batch, or I can open a bottle of the Original Inferno and add an appropriate number of habañeros to it to turn it into Original Magma.
Hellllloooo kittens!! Creeper had a grumpus day. Boots cracked, slush flooded in. Wet freezing socks. Film crew at work delayed everything. Hip-checked someone at SNL. Tired grumpy grump. But! Took Leo out to play in snow. Took him 5 minutes to realize he did not like snow. :)
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T21:00:48-05:00
@Creeper: At least you know he won't be running away in the winter...at least not for long.
And it is FINALLY time to go home. Now to see what crap I get to deal with tomorrow. -.-
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-25T22:20:58-05:00
Looks like there is only a 50/50 chance I will be able to get to work tomorrow
Epicderpguy 2016-01-25T22:33:01-05:00
I've been gone for god knows how many months now. The only question I have is, HOW IS THIS CONVERSATION THREAD STILL GOING!?! Also hi all. I'm not actually back I was just curious how and what was the last comment.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-25T23:48:01-05:00
Geist, 50/50 that you'll have to go back to work or work from home?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-26T00:22:48-05:00
Me and 2 others got the all-american feast, the ginormous sampler with a full rack of ribs, a whole chicken, half a pound of brisket (there is no other meat!), beans, slaw, fries, cornbread, and likely something else I've missed. I had probably a full third or more (it's made for 4-6, and the others who were supposed to be like vultures just passed it up and into take-out containers), which is why I felt so sick afterwards.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-26T00:23:35-05:00
Also in common with Garfield. He's probably the most famous for monday-hating.
Pfft. Y'all are talking to a Kansas City girl about BBQ.... Don't get me started on that conversation.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-26T00:55:06-05:00
Why the hell not?! KC has some of the best barbecue! What's that gas station one? Joes? One of the best I've ever had!
Famous Daves is by far the best major national barbecue chain, though. And their sauces are as good as everyone says! It's just one of my favorite places overall.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-26T06:01:39-05:00
@Trinkets: Metro just announced that 90% of its bus fleet isn't running today so it looks like I am working from home again.
I could get use to working in my pj's.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-26T07:39:34-05:00
Good morning all.
Zem, for our super bowl party last year, my buddy got almost $400 of Famous Dave's catered for us. Ribs, brisket, pulled pork, beans, Cole slaw, muffins.......sooooo good.
We have a guy who just opened a BBQ joint in town. He had been on a few of the food tv BBQ competition shows. Nothing better than a pound of brisket and a loaf of white bread. Dammit, I'm hungry.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-26T07:40:52-05:00
Congrats, Geist.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-26T08:10:48-05:00
Keep talking like this and will brave frost bite to find some bbq
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2016-01-26T08:52:08-05:00
It was worth it. I would recommend not eating so much you feel legitimately sick, though.
Dear Derp: The conversation is still running because it never stopped. It has become a sentient thing, and now strives to take over the world with the fuel supplied to it by own ramblings. Also, it has unlimited power.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-26T09:03:25-05:00
Well...it's Tuesday...seems like just 12 hours ago I was here.
Hello kittens.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-26T11:03:29-05:00
Doing good. Just got over the flu. Painting minis for a bunch of games. Enjoying the good life.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2016-01-26T11:04:14-05:00
It was,GM. Lol.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2016-01-26T11:05:15-05:00
@Trinkets, which games? I've been painting Z:BP lately. I've got all six heros, the necromancer, and the abmination, as well as the first 9 of 63 zombies done thusfar.
I can't wait to get my TO:7S game, and start painting(I have a feeling my dad and I will be painting them together, at least some of them, as he is currently painting Napoleon era cavalrymen for a diorama).
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2016-01-26T12:40:57-05:00
A Potatten sighting? Next thing you know Blondie will be showing up
Haven't seen you come up on youtube in some time. That's too bad.
@Micah,
Sorry about that. I've been sick almost every day since right after Xmas. My plan is to record another video today and it should be up tonight or tomorrow morning.

For some reason, I want to sing the Lumberjack Song, though that's about a barber who wanted to be a cross-dressing canadian logger, not snow. Well, it has canada in it.
The only bad thing is that I have to drive in it as soon as I finish eating. And that's when the wind should pick up and visibility should be negative. And did I mention ice? I'm used to it after this winter, but it's not something you want to have to worry about in addition to not being able to see heavy traffic.
@Zem, just take your time, leave plenty of space, assume people will do the dumbest thing they can, and you should be just fine. ;)
That's what I always do. Thankfully I'll be leaving right about in the emptiest time, I hope. I've been wrong about these things before, and I have a long ways to go with it.
We finally hád good snowfall Saturday night through Sunday morning. My snowblower (which I bought used) worked great...until the belt broke.
Yeah! My new game got here! At least the regular one. The "politically incorrect" nsfw deck was signed this weekend and will likely get here before I have a chance to play this. The Contender.

No offense to LZ(I haven't had your sauces yet), but the sweet and zesty?(purple bottle) and the Devil's pit(black bottle) are fantastic.
BTW LZ, what does it take to get some of your hottest sauce?
....Surviving these three days just got a LOT harder.
Who needs to know when a MANAGER is let go? Definitely not payroll. *worldendingsarcasm*
I bumped into Famous Dave himself at a bbq battle they had in D.C. a few years ago. He was rolling around in one of those motorized wheelchairs. I didn't stick around to see if he won the battle or not.
@GM, was it your manager?
Gaaah! Once again, I wish people around here would learn what my job duties are! Gaaaaaaahhhhh!
@Trinkets: I would have two ways of going about that. I either need to get more empties and make a batch, or I can open a bottle of the Original Inferno and add an appropriate number of habañeros to it to turn it into Original Magma.
@BaKhan: Not mine, but one that I need to send the payroll off to for approval at his division.
And here I wanted to be on my way home....about 2 hours ago.
Aaaaaaaaaaaand the payroll program froze on me....as I'm almost ready to wrap up my day. Monday can suck it.
Hellllloooo kittens!! Creeper had a grumpus day. Boots cracked, slush flooded in. Wet freezing socks. Film crew at work delayed everything. Hip-checked someone at SNL. Tired grumpy grump. But! Took Leo out to play in snow. Took him 5 minutes to realize he did not like snow. :)
You filming a TV show Creeper?
@Creeper: At least you know he won't be running away in the winter...at least not for long.
And it is FINALLY time to go home. Now to see what crap I get to deal with tomorrow. -.-
Looks like there is only a 50/50 chance I will be able to get to work tomorrow
I've been gone for god knows how many months now. The only question I have is, HOW IS THIS CONVERSATION THREAD STILL GOING!?! Also hi all. I'm not actually back I was just curious how and what was the last comment.
DEERRRRPPPPP!!!
DerpaderpDerp.
Ate so much Famous Daves I very nearly puked. As I've said before, it's one of my favorite restaurants!
WhaheyWHOA! A Derp sighting?! Who summoned him?!
Hey, Derp! Long time no see!
How would it not be going?! You know me better than that!
So, what did you get to eat, Zem.
Hiya Creeper!
And.... DERP!!!!!!!!
Welcome back, even if only for a second.
GM, you and Boomtown rats have the same thing in common.

Geist, 50/50 that you'll have to go back to work or work from home?
Me and 2 others got the all-american feast, the ginormous sampler with a full rack of ribs, a whole chicken, half a pound of brisket (there is no other meat!), beans, slaw, fries, cornbread, and likely something else I've missed. I had probably a full third or more (it's made for 4-6, and the others who were supposed to be like vultures just passed it up and into take-out containers), which is why I felt so sick afterwards.
Also in common with Garfield. He's probably the most famous for monday-hating.
Pfft. Y'all are talking to a Kansas City girl about BBQ.... Don't get me started on that conversation.
Why the hell not?! KC has some of the best barbecue! What's that gas station one? Joes? One of the best I've ever had!
Famous Daves is by far the best major national barbecue chain, though. And their sauces are as good as everyone says! It's just one of my favorite places overall.
@Trinkets: Metro just announced that 90% of its bus fleet isn't running today so it looks like I am working from home again.
I could get use to working in my pj's.
Good morning all.
Zem, for our super bowl party last year, my buddy got almost $400 of Famous Dave's catered for us. Ribs, brisket, pulled pork, beans, Cole slaw, muffins.......sooooo good.
We have a guy who just opened a BBQ joint in town. He had been on a few of the food tv BBQ competition shows. Nothing better than a pound of brisket and a loaf of white bread. Dammit, I'm hungry.
Congrats, Geist.
Keep talking like this and will brave frost bite to find some bbq
It was worth it. I would recommend not eating so much you feel legitimately sick, though.
Dear Derp: The conversation is still running because it never stopped. It has become a sentient thing, and now strives to take over the world with the fuel supplied to it by own ramblings. Also, it has unlimited power.
Howdy, Dr. Potatten!!
Long time no see. How's things been?
Good, been busy. Stopping by to see how everyone here is doing. How've you been Trinkets?
Good Morning Kittens!
Wow Derp and Dr. P! Whoo hoo!
Well...it's Tuesday...seems like just 12 hours ago I was here.
Hello kittens.
Doing good. Just got over the flu. Painting minis for a bunch of games. Enjoying the good life.
It was,GM. Lol.
@Trinkets, which games? I've been painting Z:BP lately. I've got all six heros, the necromancer, and the abmination, as well as the first 9 of 63 zombies done thusfar.
I can't wait to get my TO:7S game, and start painting(I have a feeling my dad and I will be painting them together, at least some of them, as he is currently painting Napoleon era cavalrymen for a diorama).
A Potatten sighting? Next thing you know Blondie will be showing up
Has she been around Geist?
