[13:10] Gregonzola:
I fought a lot with my 4 brothers growing up. Maybe I got all my violence
out then.
[13:10] Everybody:
Heheh. I broke our lounge chair with my brother's head.
[13:10] Everybody:
Human battering-ram style.
[13:10] Miss
Havisham: wow, glad there's only one boy in my home.
[13:11]
Gregonzola:
Yeah, more than one gets rambunctious.
[13:11]
Gregonzola:
Holy crap did we break things.
[13:11] Gregonzola:
My older brother put me through a wall once.
[13:11]
Everybody:
There was a point where there were no internal doors left on hinges, and
dad just stopped replacing them.
[13:11] Everybody:
You wanted to use the shitter, you picked up the door, set it aside, and
put it back when you were done.
[13:11] Miss
Havisham: ...
[13:12] Miss
Havisham: stop scaring me.
[13:12]
Everybody:
I never replaced the door on my room once it came off. I just hung some
curtains. Easier to sneak around that way anyway.
[13:12]
Gregonzola:
That is awesome.
[13:13] Everybody:
(Of course, if the doors weren't so cheap in the first place.)
[13:13]
Everybody:
They were the kind that came down with one good kick.
[13:14]
Miss Havisham:
my door is broken right now. i bent my key trying to unlock it last night.
[13:14]
Gregonzola:
And you're going to kick them. You're a boy.
[13:14]
Miss Havisham:
we had this issue before and the maintenance guy was like "your frame is
warped. i'll give you a new door, but it'll last about a year"
[13:14]
Miss Havisham:
GUESS WHAT.
[13:14] Gregonzola:
Now that's some rage unlocking, Havi.
[13:15]
Miss Havisham:
well i had to get IN, Greg. i wasn't gonna spend the night on the balcony
with two kids and only a briefcase to cover us
[13:16]
Everybody:
Well, dick, come over and replace the frame some time.
[13:16]
Miss Havisham:
right? i need to call them tonight and tell them
[13:16]
Miss Havisham:
of course in the meantime we switched management companies...
[13:16]
Miss Havisham:
so they don't have the old records of maintenance.
[13:16]
Everybody:
"Well, the former Mr. Dick said..."
[13:16]
Gregonzola:
Now that's messed up.
[13:17] Miss
Havisham: i mean, i'm not paying for it (thumbs up for
renting) but still.
[13:19] Miss
Havisham: it makes sense to actually fix the problem so i
don't get the "in a year you'll need another new door" speech every year
[13:20]
Gregonzola:
So, the frame causes the lock to stick enough to bend your key, or did you
attempt to open the door by forcing it with the key?
[13:21]
Gregonzola:
'Cause if you can unlock without bending, then you really just need a
crowbar. ;^)
[13:21] Miss
Havisham: the frame has caused the door to warp so the
deadbolt is really really wedged when it's closed.
[13:21]
Gregonzola:
Gotcha. So no choice.
[13:21] Gregonzola:
Who do you know who lives close and has a power drill?
[13:22]
Gregonzola:
Ream the hole out a bit and problem solved.
[13:22]
Everybody:
Good ole' hole reamin'.
[13:22] Gregonzola:
Pooch'll ream your hole for free.
[13:22] Everybody:
Sure, with certain provisos.
[13:22] Everybody:
Offer not valid in Rhode Island, etc.
[13:28]
Gregonzola:
Smart restriction. Nobody trusts Rhode Island.
[13:28]
Everybody:
It's an island. Or a state. Wtf.
[13:28] Everybody:
Sneaky lil fuck.
[13:29] Gregonzola:
And it's clearly not big enough to be its own political entity.
[13:29]
Gregonzola:
Like Delaware or Connecticut.
[13:29] Gregonzola:
They deserve to be annexed.
[13:30] Gregonzola:
Similarly, California is way too damned big. We need to split it. We can
have California, Delaware and Connecticut out here.
[13:33]
Miss Havisham:
...i have a power drill
[13:33] Miss
Havisham: but i'm scared of it
[13:34]
Miss Havisham:
Math Teacher would probably help me. it's kinda weird that after we really
truly stopped dating for real, he moved into my apartment complex
[13:34]
Miss Havisham:
and we became workout buddies
[13:34] Miss
Havisham: i bet he'd fix my door.
[13:42]
Gregonzola:
He probably would. -hic-
[13:42] Gregonzola:
Sometimes when dating isn't right, friendship blossoms.
[13:43]
Everybody:
Sometimes, murder.
[13:43] Gregonzola:
Other times, he's just hoping for the opportunity to get into your pants.
Either way, he'll fix your door.
[13:43] Miss
Havisham: Nah, he's pretty serious about someone else now.
We're legit just friends. AT least, as far as i know.
[13:43]
Gregonzola:
Yah, but if it's murder, you'll be able to tell because he'll take out the
latches entirely.
[13:43] Miss
Havisham: "Hey, I thought you were gonna fix the door, not
remove it"
[13:44] Gregonzola:
"Access, Havi. It's a matter of your safety."
[13:44]
Everybody:
Yup, just wear dresses forever.
[13:44] Everybody:
For your safety.
[13:44] Miss
Havisham suddenly wishes she hadn't worn a skirt today
[13:44]
Gregonzola:
Short dresses are safer. You won't get them tangled in your legs and trip.
[13:45]
Everybody:
Skirts give + initiative. -hic-
[13:45] Gregonzola: AC penalty, but who cares?
[13:45] Miss
Havisham: oh. this one is to my ankles.
[13:45] Gregonzola:
See, better AC, but initiative penalty as well as movement penalty.
[13:45]
Gregonzola:
Down to your ankles? You're movement rate 6 like a gnome.
[13:46]
Everybody:
What are these, chainmail skirts?
