Bragging thread

That's right, you know you want to rub it in everyone's face, and now's your chance. Brag about anything you want

I got an iPad 2 with light bleed in only one small spot.

 

[Alaerian]

Here's a cookie.

My husband's employer bought him his iPad2 - it has no light bleeds.

I got to meet Dimitry Medvedev yesterday because I was lured by an attractive russian woman into an underground international operation run by the KGB.

Ditto!!

Also, I have grown a human being from scratch in 38 weeks, with things I had around the house

You had semen and fertile eggs lying around your house?

...freak.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I'm miles better in bed than Yumunum.

I'm sorry, but it has to be said.

Well, just the eggs. My husband was around the house, too, though

Wow Jaffa, you realize that's not really saying much, kinda like taking 2nd to last place in a race.

Congrats Sanveann on your successful conception and subsequent role as a parasitic host. It gets a lot better when the little buggars finally come out so you can hold, cuddle, and shower them with kisses. Parenthood rocks.

I am currently working a job that I love!

 

[SwiftLives]

I just farted...and got away with it. (They blamed it on the woman who works next to me).

Excellent...

On July 1, I will no longer be paying for school. School will be paying for me!

Starting my PhD... and by paying, I mean working 80+ hours a week for s fraction of what I could make in industry doing the exact same things... but getting paid, nonetheless!

Thanks! This is actually Parasite No. 3. No. 2 is currently roaring at the dog (who seems unimpressed), and No. 1 is at preschool, thus allowing me a MacRumours break

^^^ Wow, being a parent to three is something to brag about in and of itself. My wife and I stopped at two so we could maintain a man to man defense. Good luck with playing zone.

Just noticed this, lol.

 

[Mac'nCheese]

I was the real kidnapper of the Lindbergh baby.

 

[RawBert]

I have a big butternut squash.

You like??

 

[StvenH90]

I don't have anything to brag about... I am a sad man...

 

[Badbaw]

Instead of using butter to make my eggs, I used olive oil.

I ate my eggs raw.

I wouldn't call that brag worthy, considering salmonella can kill you!

 

[StephenCampbell]

I wouldn't call that brag worthy, considering salmonella can kill you!

1 in 30,000 eggs are infected with salmonella, and these are always from large, unorganic farms. I eat only organic free range eggs from local farmers.

And salmonella cannot kill you if you're a healthy person and you don't go to the hospital.

In any case, if anything ever happens to me, even once, that would give me cause to rethink my choices. But for now, I do know that heated fats contain toxic byproducts that clog arteries and cause other chronic health conditions, and I have yet to experience anything negative from eating eggs and meat raw, so I will continue to do so. Eggs are much healthier raw than they are cooked.

 

[JLatte]

Eggs are much healthier raw than they are cooked.

I'm genuinely curious, how do you go about eating them raw? Is it mixed with anything or do you just stab the egg and drink it?

I usually just crack it into a cup and drink it out of the cup. The other thing I do is put two or three yolks (discarding the white) in a cup with raw milk and honey, which is basically egg-nog, and that's delicious. The eggs on their own don't taste bad either though.
