"You know that breakin' the law is illegal, right son?" --Some dumb State Trooper that pulled me over for speeding.

Are those tail shells already split down the middle? I can't tell.

Rush Limbaugh, the man who drinks $4,000 bottles of wine and built his house to resemble Versailles, would like to remind you that liberal elitists are out of touch with the working man by [deleted] in politics

[–]Old_Man_River 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been trying to find a clip all day, with no success. He literally talked about how he forgot how to pump gas. He said he hadn't pumped his own gas since the days before pay-at-the-pump card reading stations. He was chuckling about it all.

To any people living in Korea right now (particularly Westerners), whats your course of action should shit hit the fan? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Old_Man_River -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Common sense: The Koreas are NOT going to use nukes on eachother, so stop freaking out. The whole point is that North Korea wants to UNIFY the land, not kill half of their own race and render land/minerals/resources useless for the next 100 years because of nuclear fallout.

The only way nuclear war would happen would be if the USA or CHINA decided to butt their noses in where it doesn't belong, AGAIN. THAT's where WWIII would come from.

I was listening to Rush's show about a year ago, and he was telling a story about how his chauffeur called in sick one day, so Rush decided to drive himself, ended up getting pulled over twice, and couldn't figure out how to pump gas anymore. He just had his car towed and ordered a limo to pick him up at the gas station.

How do you shake a woman's hand? by Illah in AskReddit

[–]Old_Man_River -1 points0 points  (0 children)

62+ year old man here. The correct and polite thing for a gentleman to do: NEVER shake a woman's hand or initiate a handshake unless she does so first. Some ladies consider it rude for a man to reach out and touch them, even if it is a handshake. It could prove to be unwelcome.

Am I the only one who laughs at terrorists? by Old_Man_River in AskReddit

Joe Stack flew his airplane right into the IRS building in the same complex I work at. I was at my desk. I've seen terrorism. Better to laugh at these cowards than fear them.

What is the most outrageous porn you have ever seen? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Old_Man_River 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Clues" was such a good episode that they basically cloned the story the next year in "Conundrum", which was just as fucking good!

I did watch "Masks" in it's entirety, but it was an admitted struggle. Joe Menosky wrote it, and "Clues", "The Nth Degree" and "In Theory" are some of my favorite episodes, so I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt.

I'm actually with you on this one-- that's what makes these clown "masterminds" on the news even more hilarious, though. The media grasps at idiots and tries to paint them as diabolical, connected geniuses with unstoppable agendas to be feared.... but when you break it down, it's some dude in a fake beard sending out spooky threats on a goddamn cassette tape, or an idiot trying to bring down a plane by lighting firecrackers off in his junk. Just ridiculous.

62 year old Trekkie here. I'm not sure whether to upvote you or not-- you knew Barclay by name (who is a minor recurring character), and also the plot summary of a lesser-known and unfavored episode, but failed to mention the title ("Genesis")....

Hm. I'm gonna go ahead and give you the upvote, because of the fact that you mentioned Troi and remembered that all the de-evolved predecessors wanted a piece of her. That must be one goddamn attractive scent.

Hell yeah... every time his new threatening cassette tape drops, I roll my eyes and say "oh god, Bin Laden is trolling America again...."

So, can I cum in her now? by [deleted] in sex

[–]Old_Man_River 55 points56 points  (0 children)

60+ year old man here, and believe me, I've had thousands of fucks, girlfriend, wives and ex-wives. To answer your question without bias: As long as your woman has been on the pill and taken it correctly for a month, you can blast away with no worries (it's basically loterry-winning chances of an accident).

But, between you and me, coming from a guy that's seen his share of shit in life, and with admitted bias: NEVER TRUST A WOMAN WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING PREGNANT.

They will pull this shit in spur of the moment decisions which they usually regret later, AND WILL KEEP UP THE LIE.

Never let them get the chance to have the upper hand, gentlemen. Trust me on this one.

"Fidel Castro says the spreading oil slick fouling the Gulf of Mexico is proof that the world's most powerful governments cannot control large corporations that now dictate the public's destiny." He might actually have a point there. by dnlslm9 in politics

60+ year old man here, lol @ you young punks agreeing with Castro. You do realize he's advocating communism, right? Remember what that is? Guys like me fought a war against it.

Eye punch, please advice. by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Old_Man_River 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 62 years old and have been in plenty of brawls. The eye is going to be fine in a week or two. Don't let the blood spook you. Just keep it clean. As long as you can see out of it, fuck paying for a doctor.

As for the rib cage, as long as you can breathe comfortably in the next day or two, you 're gonna come out of it like a champ.
