    Right...my bad hooker.

    - I often take shots at people to make me feel better about myself.

    Is that better?

    Here goes.
    -I absolutely cannot stand my job, yet really don't know what I want to do with my life, and I'm 30.
    -I LOVE fishing, especially in a boat, but am afraid of the water, and can barely swim.
    -Since I had my 2 kids, I find myself crying at almost everything they do.
    -I am the biggest Milwaukee Brewers fan you will ever meet.
    -I am nervous around people I've never met, and feel like I'm being judged every second.
    -I will do anything to avoid confrontation. I absolutely hate confrontation.
    -I also thought the twilight movies were decent.

    Wow I can't imagine what kind of depression that would send me in if that happened to me. That's about the biggest kick in the gut someone can get.

    - I've never lived alone in my life.
    - I have a phobia of mice.
    - One of my favorite TV shows is Grey's anatomy
    - I smoked virtually a pack of cigarettes a day for four years without my wife finding out I smoked. Finally had to quit because she strongly suspected it.
    - I don't mind that chasing tail TV show
    - My wife is 4 inches taller than me.
    - I am 100% sure I'm not on the right career path, I hate my job with a passion.

    - Every time Hooker contributes to a thread like this I think to myself "one of these things is not like the others...."
    - I've never shot and killed a turkey
    - I miss my dad a lot more than I thought I would
    - Christine is much more hardcore than I am at bowhunting. She. Does. Not. Sit. Down. Ever.
    - I don't view any rifle killed animal as a real achievement.
    - I miss hunting with Dan Schafer and Johnny Herrmann. Those were good days, bros.
    - I can't listen to any band/musician with a female vocalist regardless of genre. No matter what they're singing about I interpret it as chick problem I can't relate to.
    - I've seen Vanilla Ice in concert 3 times and met him twice.
    - I make fun of guys who drink Smirnoff Ice and other girly drinks.
    - I know every word to every song on Snoop Dogg's "Doggystyle" album
    - I don't miss GMMAT at all
    - I once caught a seagull while bass fishing on a topwater lure and was too scared to get it off the hook so Mike did it for me
    - Buying tampons, pregnancy tests and other "female" items for my wife doesn't bother me.
    - I spend entirely too much money on hunting

    I love hunting but when I have a friend in to hunt, I will not work too hard to kill myself as I worry about the friend being successful more than I think about my hunt. I have been a recovering alcoholic for over 20 years and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I quit smoking 2 years ago after 45 years of smoking and gained 60 pounds afterwards. I turn the other cheek a couple times, but after that all bets are off. Last movie I went and saw in a theater was The Green Mile. Been married to the same woman for 33 years so evidently I am masochistic. I would rather sit down and watch a great sunset over the lake than go out to eat or go to the movies. There isn't anything about me that is exciting and I love it that way.

    I was a radio DJ for over 15 years and am deathly afraid of public speaking.
    I have been divorced twice.
    I hate needles. I sometimes faint during a blood draw.
    I've been handcuffed and put in the back of the squad car twice in my life, but never actually arrested or taken to jail.
    I am a really good singer, but rarely sing because of the public speaking phobia.
    I like chick flicks and hate sci fi movies.
    I have never seen any of the Harry Potter, LOTR, or Twilight movies and never will.
    I dropped out of college and regret it daily.
    I am losing interest in hunting, and I think I'm ok with that.

    I'm 22 years old.
    I got married at 16.
    I was already pregnant. It was NOT an accident.
    I didn't know what Toms are.
    But it doesn't matter, I always go barefoot unless I'm going somewhere I have to wear shoes.
    I hate wearing underwear. I never wear it at home.
    I can sort of swim, but not well. I got thrown out of swim class because I refused to put my head under water.
    I always obey my husband. I took an oath to do that.
    I don't think women should be allowed to vote.
    My favorite adult beverage is junmai daiginjo, second is Budweiser.
    I have to buy all my clothes in the children's department. But it saves money.
    My hair has never been cut. Our daughters are refusing haircuts too.
    We have never gone out on a date and left them with a sitter. We always take them with us.
    Some people tell me I'm too strict with our girls.
    I think Hooker is strange but I always enjoy his posts.
    I enjoyed watching Sons of Anarchy. (Netflix. We don't have cable.) Waiting for the next season.
    The best film I've watched recently was the Japanese version of "Ghost." My husband cried too.
    My husband cries at movies sometimes, but I'm not telling anyone.
    I tend to talk a lot. My husband will vouch for that, but he says he doesn't mind.

    Good Grief

    I'll play...

    - I'm afraid of death. Not really the dying part, but the death part. The endless, nothing, non-existant part, just creeps me out.
    - Marley and Me makes me cry every time I watch it.
    - I'm addicted to trail cameras.
    - I think I suck at hunting big bucks, but I was able to put a pattern to the one I killed this year.
    - I'm 24, I hate my job, yet I don't see myself leaving because I've already got 5 years in and it pays too well to walk away.
    - I love Wendy's Jr Bacon Cheeseburgers.
    - I couldn't raise an animal to butcher it. I'd feel horrible.
    - I feel bad for a few minutes after I kill an animal.
    - My worst experience in the woods probably came when I shot the jaw off of a small gray squirrel with my .22. I felt horrible for the thing as it kept trying to run away with no jaw. The sounds it made were awful.
    - I have a degree in criminal justice but work retail.
    - I'm too lazy to change my own oil. I'd rather pay the extra money to have it done.

    To be continued...

    I am 33.
    I'm on my 3rd attempt at college after quitting my first 2 times. I just completed my first year back after 8 years away.
    I feel like I've failed a class if I don't make an A. I was like this in high school and thought it would be different as an adult. After getting Bs in Calculus 2 and Linear Algebra this semester, I felt like I failed.
    I missed deer hunting more than I thought I would during the fall semester.
    I am a horrible turkey hunter.
    I suck at deer hunting.
    I have questionable taste in music.
    It is rare that I watch a movie I don't like.
    I don't hate other college teams like I did when I was younger.
    I miss working out and running as much as hunting.

    Somewhere out there, somebody is on an admission thread saying "I make a killing selling strips of burlap disguised as shoes to metro sexuals." :p

    - I didn't drink any alcohol until after I was 21. First beer was shared with the Duke and JZ at a Hooters in Crystal Lake, IL. Welcome to brohood.
    - I haven't drank soda for 12 years (except for mixed drinks).
    - I went a year and a half without eating a candy bar.
    - I'm a huge Harry Potter fan.
    - I idolize Kobe Bryant.
    - I know very little, if anything, about guns, and I'm afraid of what they're capable of.
    - I'm scared to death of driving fast.
    - I enrolled in 3 different colleges within 3 months of each other in 2011. I never went to more than 2 classes at any of them.
    - I don't own an iPod, and still make CD mix tapes. Made one just yesterday in fact.
    - I have my motorcycle license, but don't own a motorcycle (yet). The reason I got my license is because I'm obsessed with SOA.

    Exactly, and I say that believing that a lot of our problems in this society would not exist if women were not allowed to vote. If women are allowed to vote, they should be required to vote the way their husbands or fathers tell them to vote.


    :sheep:
    Any of you girls want to respond to that?
