Not sure if there is a thread on this but essentially I'm in a world of hurt. My roommate is the guy from this article. http://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20131211/up...town-police-say I need to go visit him as he's currently in cook country lock up but for whatever reason he only has one visiting day and that's tomorrow and per the site, you need to be approved for a visit prior (which they stated takes 3 days). I need to find a new roommate and move his stuff out but I'm not sure what legal issues are remaining. I am currently the only guy on the lease and I rented out my second room as a psuedo rental agreement. I'm sure he's going away for this as he had priors. I didn't do a background check on him which was an egregious mistake on my part but it is what it is. Anyone with any ideas please reply. Thanks.

I figured they'd get in line sooner or later. Nobody cares for those nutjobs except the other nutjobs.

http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=n...&id=9356770 Is there anyone that's CPD here? This story is about my roommate who has been missing for a few days that I found was arrested for being a f***ing idiot.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 02:53 PM) Cont. I love Alshon Jeffery. Hes awesome, hes exciting, hes fantastic and we have every reason to be excited. That, however, does not make Brandon Marshall expendable. Jeffery could flop. This could all be a mirage. Or he could just be a tits-awesome #2 but a god-awful #1. I dont think any of that is true personally, but I dont want to chance it just yet. Keep Marshall, keep Marshall happy. Dont go ruining this you f***ing Bears fans you with your meddling ways. Dat Defense tho

Seriously though, I want to hear from people what would kind of moves would put the sox in contention for 2014. I hear people complaining and such but I would rather have examples than just BMWs (b****ers, Whiners, Moaners)

When did AJ get signed?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 02:08 PM) He's played very well, and the Rams loss is all about a horrible defense. But I've gotta put the blame for the Vikings loss on the offense (and coaching). Even if they racked up a lot of yards, they still couldn't score more than 20 against a bad team, and they couldn't gain a crucial yard on two tries to effectively seal the win. edit: I think Jay should start and I think it'd be crazy not to bring him back next year, but I understand the arguments in favor of riding the hot hand right now. Even if Cutler comes out and stinks, though, I'd rather they know that over these next three games so they can make a better decision regarding franchise/contract/walk. So Jay gets the job done?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 02:03 PM) He was also 3-2 though, and he only was able to get 20 points against a terrible Vikings team. It's not like they're coming off of a five-game winning streak. SS you are being intentionally obtuse with that comment.

The Bulls problems stem from throwing that obscene amount of money at Boozer because they whiffed on all the premium FA.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 12:21 PM) I was like, what are you doing here? "Taking you to my party." Uh. She also bought tickets to that weekend's Cubs/Sox game at the Cell (shes a cubs fan) and she sat in her seat a section above us and stared down the whole time. Very creepy. I would have feared for flying objects being thrown in my general direction lmao.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 11:36 AM) Evidently. It is interesting though. There has been no mention. Maybe he is retiring. I see what you did there.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 11:27 AM) I think Snell is improving and getting more comfortable. Teague is just f***ing terrible. Taj is maybe showcasing himself as a trade piece. The rest? Depressing. I'd like to think it's just the emotion of having all of those expectations before the season and now they know they suck, but Noah, Kirk, Boozer, and Dunleavy...hell everyone but Taj really, sucks out there. Maybe they're just awful now. They know what's up. #tankforjabbari Rose going down is equivalent to the Hindenburg explosion.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 11:24 AM) 23-24 I think. The back story is I thought we'd already broken up and then she showed up to my house to take me to her bday party and I had to dump her again. I think you're cleared there. LMAO. Shades of Parks and Rec. He broke up with me so nicely that I didn't think he actually was.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 11:20 AM) Then let it be over. Sounds like a bit of a drama queen. Israeli women man. They are so straight laced. It's not even funny. Her mom is tough to deal with too. They are just way too blunt.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 11:01 AM) Take a break. 1 week, 2 week, whatever, go without contact for a period of time and see how you feel afterwards (aside from the intial blow of not being with her). Even just that amount of time will give you an idea as to what the right decision is. Sometimes people are the way they are because they lack the motivation. I'm sure she still cares a great deal about you, but maybe the thought of losing you will trigger the idea that maybe she should do something more to support you trying to lose weight and look good. Maybe she starts preparing meals or buying and eating more nutritiously or going to the gym with you now and then, and in turn maybe she finds that she really likes it. You might find some things you can change too. And then maybe not, and you find that being without her is better and more conducive to improving yourself. She'll sniff this out and threaten me for sure. If I breath a word of "break" she'll come back with it's over or something like that. She's super Disney about relationships.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 11:03 AM) Timing is bad though, holidays are the WORST time to do this. Then again, I dumped a girl on her birthday once.... I hope you were extremely young when that happened. Yikes.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Dec 11, 2013 -> 07:22 PM) Whats gonna (for lack of a better word) "suck" is after weeks of playing defenses ranked in the 20's and 30's against the pass Cutler is returning against the 9th ranked Browns who have only allowed 1 300 yard game all season (this past week, when Brady threw for 179 in the 4th Q). So chance are he doesn't put up McCown like numbers so you just know the meatheads will go off about the switch even more. With the receiving core that Jay has, he most certainly needs to put up those types of numbers. I reckon the Bears have the best 1-2-3 punch of receivers in the NFL!

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 09:59 AM) pssht, it is "Tayves" eh

I know you guys are all right about this. It's just hard because I just know my image will be tainted. I really wish she would just wake the f*** up (I have been transparent about this numerous times). I think I'm just going to have to talk to her again about this and if things get dicey, I might just end it. I am also uneasy because since she lives with her parents, that really limits the amount of time we can see each other. I have been to her parents place several times but I can't really sleep over there. She's so oblivious to how awkward it is too. So it feels like my relationship is one giant routine. Weird I know.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 10:36 AM) Pettie, how long have you been dating? My assumption is that you two live together as well. No we don't. She lives with her parents. We have plans to move in together next year.

What people deem acceptable punishment for a crime is somewhat subjective. I'm sure some people think that he's a kid and doesn't deserve to lose his life and others believe he should get the electric chair.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 10:07 AM) I think all you can do is stress how important staying fit and healthy is to you, and like you mentioned, continue to tell her how great the benefits of working out are. But you can't force a person to prioritize that in their life anymore than you can force them to prioritize their career, or some hobby of theirs. People are who they are and they usually aren't going to stray from that too much. If she just isn't your cup of tea anymore, then it is probably time to move on. I dated someone a few years ago and I made the decision to move on, partially because of this exact same reason. Seriously? My biggest concern would be the fall out. A lot of friends and family have met this girl and I the same of hers. To break it off over something like this, I'm sure I'd be judged to kingdom come (from my family too). I don't want to force her but I also feel myself not being attracted to her anymore. I probably just need to man up and get it over with but I just feel like I would be a s***ty person for doing this.

WTF is wrong with people. This is some sick s***.

We've been together almost 2 years now. I can see her getting complacent. I'm not a picky guy when it comes to how women dress or use make up (that's their prerogative). Hell, I don't care about her grooming habits either. I don't expect her to be a super model, but to just be in moderate shape would be suffice. She's gotten bigger and I'm just thinking to myself why does she think this is OK? I try to be passive aggressive by getting on the scale, showing her how my clothes barely fit anymore and stating how good it feels. Getting into shape too has caused my mind to wander since I see fit and hot women at the gym.
