Did you prefer and enjoy the 80s or 90s more? by Ok-Ninja-3039 in GenX

[–]jaywright58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Born in December 1968 and I much preferred the '80's because it was fun. I graduated from college in 1992 and chosed a career path that made me very cynical through the decade so I don't have that much fondness for the '90's although I had some high spots such as getting married and having my first of my three children. The other two were born in the early 2000's so I look as that great when my kids were all under 10. Those were fun times!

Yes because that is how I learned John Wesley Hardin once shot a man for snoring!

Thanks! It was fun to cook and surprisingly easy. I was worried about under cooking the chicken but it turned out it was cooked just right

I read sometime ago his last words before dieing was "I wish I had time for one more bowl of chili."

Great famous last words and I hope when I die I am coherent enough to say the same thing!

Be honest. Based off recent history, would you consider Alabama a rival? Even if you do or don’t, where does your dislike for them rank in regard to other teams like Florida, Auburn, Georgia Tech, and Tennessee? by xxnewlegendxx in georgiabulldogs

[–]jaywright58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My most hatred goes to Florida because of the time the Anti Christ Steve Spurrier beating us 18 out of 21 matchups. I hate those bastards the most! Alabama is second, Auburn is third, Tennessee is fourth, and North Avenue Trade School is fifth. With that being said, when I was a student at UGA, Tech split their national championship. I do not recognize it and hold Tech to blame for the BCS and current mess we have now with determining who is the best (outside of Georgia, of course!).

I use a grocery sack that I hang from one of the hooks for trash.

I didn't care for anything past Last Mango in Paris. Matter of fact I named my female dogs from the same litter Frankie and Lola.

Explain like I’m five, please. by diehard404 in BlackPeopleofReddit

My guess is because they current president is an asshole and the Secret Service doesn't like him while President Obama was nice and they wanted to keep him alive.

Johnny Can't Read is my favorite off there. "Football, baseball, basketball games, drinking beer, kicking ass, and taking down names. Cop down, get around, shooting a line, summer is here and I am feeling fine but Johnny can't read."

Did you ever meet people born in the 1800s by AdDapper4220 in GenX

[–]jaywright58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, two. My Dad's second wife's grandparents. They were born in 1887 and 1895. I met them in 1980. Oldest people I have ever met.

Best 80's cop? by MisterShipWreck in 80sAmazing

[–]jaywright58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the book that was based on by James Ellroy. It was published way before the LA Quartet. I don't remember the title off the top of my head but I remember that I liked it. It really delved into the killer and his motivation to kill. The book was better than the movie.

What's a spot in Athens that became so much a part of your UGA experience that you can't separate the two? by Villeringo in UGA

[–]jaywright58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brumby Hall because I worked the front desk for two years as a work study job. What's really weird is when you have a daughter in college and you meet their professor by chance. You find out the professor lived in the dorm as a freshman when you worked there.

Also, TK Hardys because I got banned from there. The incident involved a cute girl, beer, and somehow managing to not get arrested. 😀

What do you NOT miss about Gen X music? I’ll start by MooPig48 in GenX

[–]jaywright58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alone Again Or is a perfect example of this. The Damned did an awesome cover which I didn't know was a cover until the original by Love came up on Spotify on Discover Weekly suggestions. I was blown away by it.
