OT: 114th Obsequious Banter Thread: One fortnight and counting

[Cody Webster]

Your arrival day is my bday and I have the whole week off. Watch out, Bernie and I might drop in! Jk we will be up in goats rocks WA

Edit: I’ll get into specifics when I get a chance to get at a map but as I mentioned, Charleston would be a great spot to hit on the way down from the airport to get oysters. A bit off of the main road but a cool sleepy harbor. Port orford has an emerald Green Bay unlike anywhere on the coast. The state park just south, Humbug has a cool hike/beach. Might be a little far though... can’t exactly remember. Bandon state park is really cool also and right by the golf. I stayed in the hiker/biker there and explored the park, really beautiful

I just peaked at a couple of the small restaurants in Charleston...what a mistake that was...damn it looks delicious

Ha! I just picked the one on the dock with an oyster shell pile the size of a house next to it! So good . The back road from Charleston to Bandon is seven devils road. VERY scenic and shouldn’t be too far with a car. The seven is for the hills so on a bike was a little longer

someone should just beat it up...or something else

‘Help me, Jesus!’: Snake falls out of sky, lands on woman, then both attacked by a hawk

A snake fell out of the sky and landed on a woman mowing her yard.The bizarre incident didn’t stop there. Peggy Jones was then attacked by a hawk.

I assume the hawk had caught the snake, was taking it off to eat, dropped it on Peggy, and then flew down to get it back.

My thoughts...just glad it wasn't me.

Took my car into the shop thinking i needed a part for my catalytic converter and maybe brakes, then they hit me with a Timing Chain Replacement with a bunch of other parts required for it before they even look at the Cat Converter and the brakes are fine...

$2400 quoted for the timing chain then the guys call me back, by the way, it's another $1900 for the cat converter...

Let me just pull that out of my ass.


Paid off 2015 Gmc Terrain with 65,000 miles on it...this is some straight up bullshit

I saw that road that snakes down there through Charleston instead of the 101. I think we're getting a shuttle from the airport to Bandon, so unfortunately we'll be at the mercy of them. Since we'll have most of the day, maybe I'll Uber up that way.

I don't know if you're into the lettuce, but I was looking at the one shop near Bandon and the prices are insanely cheap for everything. Ounces for $35 , 1g pre rolls for $2, 100mg gummies for $6. Crazy town

Is it illegal to live year round in antarctica? I mean its a dumb idea, its super cold and you would probably have a tough time...i find it odd that not one smacked ass lunatic out there isn't scrambling to be the first ful time resident/citizen of Antarctica and claim land and start a government...i understand theres a group of countries/treaties that kind of outline specifics about Antarctica and what you can/cant do...but ive never understood why someone in the entire history of the planet...hasn't dropped a deuce on a spot of land in Antarctica, claimed it and then announced themselves the ruler....

Yes, i understand it is a continent, but what is stopping someone from setting up a country, naming themelves president and claiming the whole damn area...

Just looked at my Friends List on Facebook. I was scrolling through and can't remember whole swaths of them. I don't add friends recklessly and I have almost 500 requests which I have not accepted, so I'm not a friend "collector."

Who are these people? (In heavy Seinfeld voice)

I'm now what I would consider in expert in Antarctic matters now after using Chat GPT for the last 10 minutes and it appears that my rival Norway laid claim to some Antarctic land in 2015...update...that was a lie.
