The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

I say a mix of all the above mentioned but Im not married yet so dont listen to me

 

Dear Dumb Ass,

It's Dumas.

Oh, and if she doesn't ask, don't even bring it up.

 

For fuck's sake, this is what I get for trying to help out. I posed this scenario to my wife to ask her how mad would she be about me losing it (and recovering it) in that specific way, her knowing this was not me we were talking about, and instead of her just telling me how much extra mad she'd be, she grills me for 5 minutes about "why didn't you tell me it was lost in the first place", "why would you be hiding this from me", and "why wouldn't you just be honest with me about what happened" .... all the while I'm trying to remind her that THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN TO ME.... Sorry Steve, you're on your own.

 

Dont Tell her it was a Ninja box! haha, start by saying the ring is on its way back home!

 

I'd go with honesty. Knowing my wife if this was me and I didn't have my ring on and couldn't produce it immediately the authorities would have already found my corpse floating face down in the river.

 

I would tell her that you left in the nightstand in an hourly hotel and they just sent it back. Then tell her the truth, she will be so happy to hear the truth that she'll forget how dumb it was.

 

You're S.O.L.

Just get a new one*, have it rush delivered, and replace the old one like nothing ever happened.

Who am I kidding most of my best laid plans are after a few cold ones!

 

NBO - Horizontalhood Trip #5
If you would like to be in consideration to be the recipient of a 6-shipper box filled with great stuff, please BM me your shipping address. If you would prefer to skip this trip and sign up for a future trip, don't send me your address and wait for the next person to post their NBO to sign up.
Signup period ends at midnight Friday March 6th. At that time I will randomly select the recipient and start posting hints as to who it is. Box will be shipped as soon as I get it ready!
Trip #1 - Texas (@@Clarkson )--> Illinois (@@Ncpogs )
Trip #2 - Illinois (@@Ncpogs )--> NJ (@@Syracuse12)
Trip #3 - NJ (@@Syracuse12) --> VA (@@Dave_Treat)
Trip #4 - VA (@@Dave_Treat) --> FL (@@Valrxman)
Trip #5 - FL (@@Valrxman) --> ???
See official rules below....
----------------------------------------------
How Horizontalhood works:
1) Some of my favorite beers have come from a brewery “Sampler” trade where I ask my trading partner to throw in a whole brewery’s lineup. If I didn’t do this, I would have only had Lunch, and not a tiny beautiful something. I might have only had Jai Alai and not Tocobaga. So the purpose of this BIF is to showcase your local brewery’s line up and send something that wouldn’t normally be asked for. Show that your local brewery is not a one trick pony.
2) The current holder of the Horizontalhood box will make a post in the Locals BIF thread saying that the signup period for the next Trip is open and will be open for 2 or 3 days. Anyone that would like to be a potential target for the box would send their address information in a BM to the current holder of the box. To be eligible the person must have:
a) participated in Locals BIF rounds 1, 2 (summer 6'er), 3, 4 (Winter 6’er), or any of the new faces that have recently joined us prior to this Trips NBO post
b) have not already received the Horizontalhood box.
3) After the signup period is over, the current holder will randomly pick the next lucky recipient of the Horizontalhood box. They will not announce this person nor the number of people that signed up, but instead will start posting hints as to where the box is going (BIF style hints). If no one signs up to be the next recipient then, as the original founder, @@Clarkson will be the final recipient (hopefully without him knowing that it is coming to him).
4) The holder of the Horizontalhood box will fill the box with high quality local bottles from A SINGLE LOCAL BREWERY ONLY, and ship it to the target. Make it a kickass box, but with this group of people I know we won't have to worry about that. Also, add the targets name to the tracking board in the box and add any 'decorations' that you wish to help commemorate the box's visit to your state. You may add one piece of swag in place of one beer, but it has to come from the brewery that is in the box.
5) Once the box is received by the target, they will post the pr0n for all to enjoy.
6) Start over at #1

You do not have to enter every signup period. You can pick and choose when you want to be in consideration to be the next recipient. This would be nice if the current holder of the box is from your own state or an adjoining state or if you.
Cheers!

Sign up today. Looking for one more bottle to add. Who wants some Florida goodness? I will keep this open for just at few days and will ship on Monday. Cheers

 

I'm also a DA, so I have 3 of the same rings. If course, not gold or platinum metal.

 

Will any men's jewelry be added to the box?

 

This is the Horizontalhood box. Not the Dumb Ass box.

 

Alright Locals, Round 2 of the Feral One Batch 2 LIF.
This round I'm going to have to disqualify a few of you, because I have a Feral One Batch 2 already set aside for you.
@Devman171 @PassMeAZima @devilfluff you are not allowed to play this round. (That goes for @valrxman too)

If you already have, or have had, or have a Feral One Batch 2 coming to you, or you reside in CA, please do not participate in this either!

So this round is pretty simple. I have beer. I have beer that is being refrigerated. How many beers do I have in the fridge? IDK. You tell me.
Guess how many beers I have right now, cold and ready to go. But, you will also have to guess how many different styles as well.
So here is an example... Lets say I have 1 beer in the fridge, and its a brown ale. so the correct answer would be 1 and 1. (1 for beer and 1 for style of beer) ... If I have 2 beers in the fridge and they are both brown ales, the correct answer would be 2 and 1. (2 beers, 1 style) ... If I have 3 beers in the fridge and they are all different styles, the answer would be 3 and 3. (3 beers, 3 styles)

You must answer in that format. Number of beers, Styles of beer

I will close this up probably later tonight as I will want to have a beer after work.
Also, I am requiring the winner of this round to send me a shipping label. If you do not intend on doing so, please do not participate!

Cheers and good luck!

 

That sounds epic.

 

They're sort of easy to catch...

 

43 beers and 9 styles.

 

Can you plant it somewhere so that SHE will find it?

 

7 ApA's, 6 IPA's, 3 Dipa's, 1 milk stout, 3 Barleywine's, 4 Wild Ale's
6 styles

24 total.

Thanks

 

EDIT: If you already have, or have had, or have a Feral One Batch 2 coming to you, or you reside in CA, please do not participate in this either!

 

I'd make up a story about my girl friend running away to Texas after our last fling, found another dude, and sent my ring back. She would know I was full of shit and made up a story, and then laugh when I told her the truth.

Your wife does know what goes out in those boxes right? Just tell her.
