Who Wants to Marry A Totally Broke Dude?

Message Bookmarked
Bookmark Removed
I mean, hey, I have 8 dollars to my name (that's including the unobtainable $3 in my chequing acct) until tomorrow, I'm well-respected and adored by my mother (who says I'm handsome, or rather that I WOULD be, if only I got a decent haircut and proper attire befitting a young man of my countenance), am firmly entrenched in a dead-end job that is eating away at my very soul, and am generally considered to be a funny person (funny ha-ha or funny odd depends on who says so). Also, I'm not too bad in bed.

So, what about it. I mean, what the hell?

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:34 (twenty-two years ago)

My girlfriend to thread!

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Oops- not because she'd marry you Horace (how that might read) but because she is marrying an actual broke dude - me.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:37 (twenty-two years ago)

that you're the first respondent, Nordic, confirms my suspiscions that I will die an old, lonely, and suspiscious man.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Is gay marriage legal where you live, Horace?

hstencil, Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Don't knock 8 dollars. Spent wisely, that's a fair amount of beer. Nothing takes the sting out of being broke like being drunk (and even broker).

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:38 (twenty-two years ago)

You have $8, but do you have debts?

that you're the first respondent, Nordic, confirms my suspiscions that I will die an old, lonely, and suspiscious man.

You can count on me, buddy.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:39 (twenty-two years ago)

my wife married a totally broke dude.

Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down the road and back again
Your heart is true you're a pal and a confidant.

And if you through a party
Invited everyone you ever knew
You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say thank you for being a friend.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:40 (twenty-two years ago)

I once texted the Golden Girls and Friends theme tune lyrics to a friend of mine, and she didn't recognize them, thought I was having some kind of nervous breakdown.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Are you asking us to set you up with someone?

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:41 (twenty-two years ago)

oh yeah, I have debts. shit. thanks for reminding me, as of midnight tonight I will have negative 92 dollars thanks to student loans automatic payments.

and gay marriage is nearly legal in Canada. And my mom's in the United Church, so she'd still be proud.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Money money money money MONEY!

Nope, it's not everything. Plus, you get paid tomorrow, right? And you're a 'handsomish boy.'

Sarah McLUsky (coco), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:44 (twenty-two years ago)

no, I'm not really asking to be set up.
A colleague was asking me about furniture ("what's the opposite of furniture?"), and I just thought about how slightly pathetic my bachelorhood has become, and y'know, that sort of thing is best fixed by legally entwining your misery with that of someone else, so, hey! My dad had 2 kids and a third on the way when he was my age, so, like, I should get married. This month.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Seems to me you're missing a golden opportunity to be gay without horrible, crushing, suicidal guilt and confusion. You need to switch teams now... for all the kids who don't have the opportunities you have.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:49 (twenty-two years ago)

My mom was married when she was 19, but I'm not worried about living up to that. Plus, she's divorced now.

Are you miserable single? Do you really need to get married or just get a nice steady?

Sarah McLUsky (coco), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Marriage ain't all its cracked up to be. ;)

Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, don't. Please.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Chris, did you have a bachelor party/stag night/whatever you call it over there?

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Do you really need to get married or just get a nice steady?

Okay, then rephrase the question. Who wants to blow a totally broke dude?

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:52 (twenty-two years ago)

yes, but it didn't involve any strippers or anything like that. I don't go for that. We BBQ'd in the afternoon, drank beer and played baseball. Then we went to Mohegan Sun Casino for a night out gambling, drinking and eating.

Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I live in fear of my friends playing a horrible "joke" on me at mine. I don't like surprises. Yours sounds good.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:55 (twenty-two years ago)

no surprises. just a bunch of assholes imitating the movie "Swingers" all night.

Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:56 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm hoping we'll imitate "Lost Boys". That would be cool. "Very Bad Things", however...

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:58 (twenty-two years ago)

better yet would be a Goonies-themed bachelor party.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 17:59 (twenty-two years ago)

But without the scary guy whose name escapes me for now.

*rimshot*

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:05 (twenty-two years ago)

We must bring this back to the top of the list as it's very important.

Mr. Mann, What are you looking for in your life mate?

Sarah McLUsky (coco), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I know a very nice girl who'd like to have a date with you, Horace!

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:33 (twenty-two years ago)

If you can dance, I know a girl who might be interested.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:34 (twenty-two years ago)

I too know of even a couple girls who would be interested, but I'm not gonna introduce you, cuz I called dibs!

nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:47 (twenty-two years ago)

I can dance, but not well (or in a dignified manner).

What are you looking for in your life mate?

Here it would be funny (although probably not at all uncommon) for me to--having pointed out my many shortcomings--have unrealistic expectations as to the standars a woman must live up to in order for me to be satisfied.

Alas, I am no hypocrite (in that dept. at least). My ideal woman must posess:
1. Sense of humour
2. Patience
3. Independence (because sometimes I just like to be alone, and someone who doesn't understand that, well, they wouldn't understand)
4. At the very least an interest in artistic/cultural things.
5. Patience
6. whatever the opposite of gullibility is, because sometimes I say outrageous things with no basis in fact
7. A tender heart

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, I'm all that. How far are you from Winnipeg?

Jodi (Celerina), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:53 (twenty-two years ago)

You two could meet for coffee in Virden!

Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:56 (twenty-two years ago)

And a bag of chips, Jodi?

Sarah MCLUsky (coco), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:56 (twenty-two years ago)

back off, Jodi, I saw him first!

(a popular technique learned from the auction house)

Helouise Manfredd (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:58 (twenty-two years ago)

And they lived happily ever after...

Sarah McLUsky (coco), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 18:59 (twenty-two years ago)

You really should add "has money" to your list, Horace.

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Of course there are chips, too! Snack foods are important.

Jodi (Celerina), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Seriously, look at all the fine places to eat in Virden! The Elegant Moose! The Bump and Pit! And while you're there you can gaze in awe at Bill Murray Motors and wonder what the hell a hollywood star would be doing running an auto dealership in Virden.

Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:02 (twenty-two years ago)

How could a relationship that starts at the Bump and Pit go wrong?

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:03 (twenty-two years ago)

hey I'll die lonely but do I care?! do I?! pfft!

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:03 (twenty-two years ago)

I have some money, but I don't know if it's enough for me to afford a kept man. Horace might have to get a part-time job, just for some walking-around money.

Jodi (Celerina), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:05 (twenty-two years ago)

The CREEMEE drive-in is my favourite. I say it over and over again everytime I drive past it...CREEMEE CREEMEE CREEMEE CREEMEE...

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:05 (twenty-two years ago)

I've been there! I had a milkshake. It was very reasonably priced.

Jodi (Celerina), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:06 (twenty-two years ago)

just for some
walking-around money.

oh, that reminds me. I also don't drive. Is that a deal-breaker, Jodi? I hope not, cuz I already told my mom.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:07 (twenty-two years ago)

It's fine if you don't drive, as long as you can read a map, and navigate while I drive.

Jodi (Celerina), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:15 (twenty-two years ago)

There's just something satisfying about eating a meal or some ice cream treat with the smell of crude oil wafting around. It's just so special that it can barely be beaten.

Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Seriously though, Horace. You should date Jodi. I have dated her (not for a really long time, though, but she hasn't changed much except for the better - she's no longer with me!). She's very cool.

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:50 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm not sure where I stand on 'recommending one's exes to others' testimonials.

N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah. I was just gonna say...

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I KNEW IT MIGHT BE A MISTAKE!!!

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Just thought I'd give it a try. DAMMIT! Sorry, Jod!

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Not to objectify Jodi (or any women for that matter), but it's sorta like saying, "you should eat this sandwich, I've already eaten it, but I'm not eating it now'

okay, it's actually nothing like that at all, but I thought it would be a funny analogy.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:55 (twenty-two years ago)

also, who's going to recommend me to Jodi?

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:56 (twenty-two years ago)

FUCK NO!!!!!! We were just kids! We're great friends now!!! Do you think I would recommend a friend for such a thing if it wasn't truly a good idea? COME ON!

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Sh can make up her own mind, Horace!

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 19:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Maybe now is the time for me to bow out gracefully, and go back to my regularly scheduled spinster librarian life.

Jodi (Celerina), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:01 (twenty-two years ago)

I like the way you pass her around like a box of Altoids, then assert that she can make up own mind. ;-)

If you don't drive, H, how are you going to get ot the Bump 'n Pit?

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:02 (twenty-two years ago)

chickenshit.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:02 (twenty-two years ago)

CRAP! This will be my last post to ILX... FAREWELL!

Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:02 (twenty-two years ago)

(oh yeah, name-calling, that's how to smoove the ladies, Horace, kicking it old skool, kicking it pre-skool, even)

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:03 (twenty-two years ago)

She was the one who said she was all the things you listed, I really think Bryan was just trying to say 'hey, I know her, she's great, she's not a psycho, you could make a worse choice,' instead of 'yeah I've hit that, go for it.'

luna (luna.c), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:04 (twenty-two years ago)

I know, luna, this is all ridiculous.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:05 (twenty-two years ago)

ps, Jodi, email me about Bump & Pit.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Good Luck, Horace!

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 20:08 (twenty-two years ago)

marriage is a dud

Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 21:20 (twenty-two years ago)

how come?

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 21:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm sorry, Horace, but it's the Elegant Moose, or nothing.

Jodi (Celerina), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 22:11 (twenty-two years ago)

My ex didn't want to marry a broke bloke. Heartless wretch!

Badger (Badger), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 22:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Where are you a broker, Horace? Do you like baseball? Can you cook?

f.r. (felicity), Wednesday, 7 May 2003 22:56 (twenty-two years ago)

nothing against married people, or those who support the institution, but in my view it's just two insecurities desperate for affirmation

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 8 May 2003 01:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Mary will you marry me?

Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 8 May 2003 01:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 8 May 2003 01:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Hot damn...the first double-ILX wedding!

j.lu (j.lu), Thursday, 8 May 2003 01:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Mary will you ally me?

Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 8 May 2003 01:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, I see that you lot are, without prompting, trying to convince straight Saskatchwani men that it's in their best interest to be gay. And you did it all without me even being aware of it. Clearly my work here is done.

Chris P (Chris P), Thursday, 8 May 2003 02:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Clearly, Chris, your work is just beginning!

donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 8 May 2003 04:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Hm. Maybe I haven't been rendered superfluous after all!

Chris P (Chris P), Thursday, 8 May 2003 04:26 (twenty-two years ago)

I've rendered bacon.

Bacon is never superfluous.

Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 8 May 2003 04:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Mmm, bacon. The only reason I'm not a vegetarian.

Jodi (Celerina), Thursday, 8 May 2003 04:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Me too. Oh, and meat.

Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 8 May 2003 04:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Seems a shame to say anything here after that magical exchange, but I hereby rescind my self-imposed ban from posting, however reluctantly. Jodi knows I meant well and that's all that matters.

Bryan (Bryan), Thursday, 8 May 2003 15:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Booyah!

Sarah Mclusky (coco), Thursday, 8 May 2003 15:55 (twenty-two years ago)

also, I will insist on a pre-nup.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 8 May 2003 16:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Is that like foreplay?

Chris P (Chris P), Thursday, 8 May 2003 16:36 (twenty-two years ago)

No, that'll be when they start whispering sweet nup-nups in each other's ears.

Bryan (Bryan), Thursday, 8 May 2003 16:41 (twenty-two years ago)

"That'd have to be in the nup, Bob."

Chris P (Chris P), Thursday, 8 May 2003 16:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I just want to make sure that when the marriage goes sour, my betrothed will agree to take half my worthless junk with her.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 8 May 2003 16:55 (twenty-two years ago)

I only have a one-bedroom apartment. Just how much crap have you got?

Jodi (Celerina), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, I just moved into a zero bedroom apt (better, and more suitably known as a bachelor suite), and the local community radio station is having a fund-raising garage sale in a month, so I have gotten rid of most of my useless crap.
Useless things I kept:
Spongebob party decorations (my suite is too small for a party)
A Tahitian Lady whisk broom (she's topless [no nipples, though], a gift from my sister who though it was a hula girl, as I've lately had a fondness for indiginous [or whatever would be the best way to say non-hokey] Hawaiian culture, esp. music)
three Star Wars Pez dispensers (Darth Vader, Boba Fett and Chewbacca)
one Incredible Hulk Pez dispenser (that I've had since I was a wee Mann)
three frying pans (I really only need one, really)
cheque stubs from my formerly burgeoning freelance writing career
all the Kerouac books that I bought and read when I was 18/19 and wanted to BE him.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, to be fair, you should list all your useful possessions as well.

Chris P (Chris P), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes, that would be helpful. Do you have a vacuum cleaner?

Jodi (Celerina), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Dammit, I said useful possessions.

Chris P (Chris P), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:34 (twenty-two years ago)

You're Kerouac to me, Horace. Kerouac with novelty Hawaiian frills.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:47 (twenty-two years ago)

How big is your TV, Horace? I could use a bigger TV.

Jodi (Celerina), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:48 (twenty-two years ago)

He doesn't have one!

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I have a non-electric vacuum-looking roller thing. I only have an area rug, the rest is hardwood (the WHOLE rest of it).

okay, useful things:
A great chef's knife (picked up a Safeway on Saturday for a song--and a dance, I love my Safeway, before a week ago today, I was only half a block away from it, I was there everyday, sometimes as many as three times, now I'm four blocks away)
a decent bike (two-wheeler)
a nice coffee table
a single-bed futon
a pull-out couch that's actually very light
a bunch of CDs in every genre except classical (someday, though, I'll finally explore opera)
a laptop computer
a remarkable amount of notebooks
a playstation (not PS2)
a small colour tv (used only for video games, and rarely at that even)
an unabridged edition of The Count of Monte Cristo in increasingly ill-repair (in direct result with my refusal to be further than five feet away from it all times)
a half-full bottle of exquisite Scotch
two bottles of Pilsner beer
two vine-ripened tomatoes
one celery stalk
half a bag of frozen perogies
an almost full bottle of Dijonaisse
three whole-grain bagels
an almost empty container of mediteranean salsa cream cheese
one box of pure orange juice
a nylon mesh baseball cap that reads "It Took Me 85 Years To Look This Good"
a poster of Ernest Hemingway shaking hands with Fidel Castro
a lock for said decent bike
three bookshelves full of assorted books
a nose for news

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:52 (twenty-two years ago)

no, I got (a shitty little) one from my brother, quite unexpectedly.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 8 May 2003 17:53 (twenty-two years ago)

That picture is from a google for "Hawaiian crap", btw.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Thursday, 8 May 2003 18:01 (twenty-two years ago)

all things considered, that's nowhere near as bad as it could have been.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 8 May 2003 18:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Also, Jodi, you should be aware, as I became during my morning bath, that I have very large feet, and large toes, even in proportion to my big-fat feet.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 9 May 2003 13:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Are you very unsubtly trying to tell her that you are extremely well-hung???

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Friday, 9 May 2003 14:01 (twenty-two years ago)

no, I think I already mentioned that upthread. I'm serious, my feet are honkers.
I guess I never really noticed before, but my new apt. has no shower, so I've been taking baths lately, and my feet are ragers. You could park a pimped-out Esplanade on each of my dogs.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 9 May 2003 14:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Baths rock though, don't they?

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Friday, 9 May 2003 14:37 (twenty-two years ago)

they take so damn long, though. And you have to be all careful to get the temperature right.
But, you can't drink coffee and smoke in the shower.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 9 May 2003 14:37 (twenty-two years ago)

What's an Esplanade? Is that anything like that new SUV, the Escarole?

Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Friday, 9 May 2003 14:40 (twenty-two years ago)

isn't the Esplanade the Cadillac SUV?

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 9 May 2003 14:42 (twenty-two years ago)

That's an EsCalade, no?

I only know that from watching Cribs, btw!

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Friday, 9 May 2003 14:48 (twenty-two years ago)

yes. you are sooo right. I thought Esplanade was it, because doesn't that mean a walkway? And isn't that ironic?

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 9 May 2003 15:04 (twenty-two years ago)

es·pla·nade    ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (spl-näd, -nd)
n.

A flat open stretch of pavement or grass, especially one designed as a promenade along a shore.

Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Friday, 9 May 2003 15:06 (twenty-two years ago)

thank you

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 9 May 2003 15:09 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah we gots an esplanade is Boston.

Chris V. (Chris V), Friday, 9 May 2003 15:10 (twenty-two years ago)

and you walk on it.
which is why it would be funny if an anti-pedestrian machine was named that.

it would be like naming a pick-up truck the Crosswalk.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 9 May 2003 15:11 (twenty-two years ago)

So, had any luck, Horace?
