I give in, I'm a COB

Published

Ok, I've had it. I'm tired of whippersnapper nurses, smart alecky new grads who think that their gold plated degrees trump experience.

I'm hungry for young flesh. ;)

I'm officially a Crusty Old Bat, to put it nicely.

As someone who was also accused of having no sense of humor because this thread struck a chord with me, I think that's really unfair. I don't know "DrKim" from Adam, but I can say for myself, I have a fabulous sense of humor. But every one of us has hot button issues where the sense of humor goes out the window.

Maybe we all need to cut each other a little slack.

Funny is those glasses you're sporting. They remind me of the glasses people wear on New Year's Eve.

I have a date later tonight with not one, but two really cool guys. One's named Ben, the other is named Jerry.

Can we make that a double date?

I realized this thread hit you the wrong way when I read your earlier post, klone. Since you normally do have a good sense of humor, I DID cut you some slack by just letting it go.

DrKim, however, was just downright rude and insulting to everyone else on this thread who have been getting a little silly, and probably more than a little childish. But we've been having fun.

So this thread isn't your cuppa tea. That's ok, we'll miss your smiling face here (😇), but something else will come along that will tickle your funny bone.

It's a date. I'll bring the Chunky Monkey (or perhaps Crusty Musty would be more fitting?)

What wine pairs well with ice cream?

Mmmm Chunky Monkey. My very favorite. Only thing is, there's never enough for seconds...

Well, both of my flavors either have a chocolate base or plenty of chocolate throughout, so I think a Merlot would go with that.

I don't know what's in Chunky Monkey, but I think it has banana in it. In that case, you can't eat that in front of me: I am afraid of monkeys and repulsed by bananas to the point of being phobic of them. Plus I have a latex allergy, and there is some evidence that suggests that bananas can cause an allergic reaction to people with latex allergy. (Same goes for propofol, but I won't turn that down. ;) )

A vanilla based ice cream might taste good with a Chardonnay. I happen to have a bottle of that on hand.

Whee! Wine, cupcakes, and ice cream...sounds like a healthy dinner to me.

Okay, guys. I just got off the phone with my preceptor for tomorrow and she is so crusty she was cracking! I asked her how she liked the job, and she went into a 20 minute rant about this one and that one and how it's the same all over and thank God she's retiring...ending with "What's your name again? See you tomorrow morning. *click*

I'm Jello inside. JELLO. :wideyed:

How about a triple date? I have two pints of half baked in my freezer. I could be tempted to share...
