It used to be Pepsi, but then I found out that was kind of unusual and it lost it’s appeal so it’s been Coke ever since then. One of the burdens of the regular guy is to go to out to some place where they don’t serve your regular soda.
Do you use fiber supplements to help you stay regular?
Now we’re getting somewhere. It’s been said by wise men* that the true measure of a good life is having a lawn mower that starts by at least the second or third pull. Do you have a good life? I do not. Mine is electric, but the corded kind, and the cord is a pain in the ass. Do you have any revealing insights you’d like to share with us on the subject of happiness as defined by yard work?
Also, are you a prostitute?
- Dave Barry
Do you have any special athletic, social or intellectual talents or abilities (anything above a 6 on a 10 point scale). If so, how you do you keep that in check so that it doesn’t disrupt the carefully balanced mediocrity that you sculpt? For that matter, do you have any special weaknesses that detract from living a completely ordinary and unassuming life?
I would like to hear more about those pants of yours.
I am calling bullshit on this whole thread. It is obvious the OP is not a real ‘normal guy’. I would bet dollars to donuts that he (or she) is a sports legend, movie celebrity or porn star that is just using this forum to get a reaction from others for reasons unknown to us.
Good try but I didn’t fall for it and I doubt many other people did either. I can spot a fake as easily as I can a Hollywood smile.
They’re Dickies. Sturdy economical pants. Big enough pockets to hold a small tools in, not the big sticking out kind. Two legs and a fly.
This doesn’t make any sense. Do you think I’m a teenaged lesbian pretending to be a middle aged man also?
Not supplements, just plain oatmeal for breakfast.
Sounds like you’re an Everyday Normal Guy.
I suspect you’re a fifth-grade model with the face of an interstate stripper.
I don’t know, it sounds more like he’s an Ordinary Average Guy
Much closer. And I was a league bowler. Probably the most extraordinary part of my life for a while, I had a 172 average.
Hah! So you are somewhat extraordinary. Shagnasty was right you have been lying all this time about your regular-ness. Fool me once,…
Look, even regular guys can be pretty good at a regular sport like bowling. I really don’t understand this hostility, I started this thread so others could find out about the life of a regular guy like me. Then I get wise-cracks about escorts and prostitutes that I don’t understand, people who think I’m a movie star or underworld spy or something. There are people who do want to know what it’s like to be a dull, humdrum, ordinary, average guy, who doesn’t do anything interesting or unusual, if you’re not one of them maybe you should start your own thread.
Have you considered that computer programming has a limited lifespan? What are you going to do when you turn, say, 70?
Following up on this question, did you start doing regular stuff in college? Was it just as a way to make ends meet? As bup points out, it’s all well and good to do regular stuff when you’re young, but what about the future?
Right on. I have made certain inquiries and am now in a position to post a photograph of the OP. At the risk of the OP being potentially identifiable, he is the one on the far left.
This is why I never heard back about his lawn mower. He doesn’t even have one, like a regular guy would.
Sorry, no. A lot of people saythis guylooks like me.
OK, Shagnasty got me suspicious. So I did some [del]stalking[/del] sleuthing and looked at a few of TriPolar’s past threads. (Or more accurately, I read the titles - clicking on them seemed like a lot of work.)
How much do Doormen make?
- Do regular guys have or even think about doormen? No.
Trapped on an escalator
- Oh, stairs not good enough for you, Mr. “Regular”? You have to take one of those fancy-pants escalators?
This mermaid can swim in my pool anytime she wants to
- Not only does he have a pool, but he also has his own mermaid. Mermaids are definitely not regular stuff.
220 volt device in a 110 outlet?
- Regular guys get by with 110 for their devices, maybe 120 if they want to get a little funky while still being regular. But TriPolar doubles down on that shit, 220 or bust, yeehaw!
The jig is up, wild and crazy guy. You’ve been outed. I knew this thread was too good to be true.
