The winner is kind of a no brainer, don't you think?

Trooper York said...

Well if they pick on the basis of having no brains then I think I got a shot. Just sayn'

I'm drooling over those three hunks and your dessert.

One of them is all hat no cattle; another has been crucified mercilessly, and the other will help save Medicare a bundle. ;)

chickelit said...

Hey, Netflix is shipping "Justified" Season 1. I can finally get on the same page as Darcy.

AllenS said...

Oh, come on. You have three whoever, who make their living pretending to be someone there not, and then the real deal.

Plus the floresence thing.

Don't stand so close to the microwave.

Darcy said...

I had to vote my heart.

TerriW said...

No one does that barely concealed smoldering rage quite like Raylan.

Oh, swoon.

On the other hand, after a Lent of no sugar (and post-Easter sweets bacchanalia, I went back to no sugar), I might crawl through the computer screen and grab that dessert away from you.

ndspinelli said...

I have to vote my fart.

Darcy said...

LOL. Who would the fart be?

Darcy said...

So I didn't get a job I interviewed for last week. I'm bummed.

It was kind of different that in the rejection email, the guy I interviewed with called me a "delight". I'm delightful but not hired! :)

Chip S. said...

I'm delightful but not hired!

Jeez, Troop, wassamatta witchoo?

I'll hire Darcy if she can make a passable macchiato.

The Dude said...

Bummer, Darce. Very sorry to hear that. The not getting the job part. The delight part is a given, and that's why we like you.

Darcy said...

I don't know how to make macchiato. Must learn this, apparently, for my next interview.

And thanks, Sixty. I would say you're sweet, but that would be all messin' with your reputation. ;-)

Titus said...

Peter from Family Guy and Cartman from South Park.

tits.

Chip S. said...

On second thought, who cares about macchiato?

There's lots more coffee in the world than there is delight.

Titus said...

I actually like Stewie from Family Guy best.

What a fag.

blake said...

What sort of maroon passes up hiring Darcy?

Titus said...

I work with Clouds Programmers all day and I fucking hate them.

They want the fucking world and get it because they are in demand.

25 year olds making 150k a year and working from home disgust me.

They always want more too.

Fuckers.

My company came up with Siri for Iphone so they are total divas. Hate them.

I am one of the oldest employees at the place. And to make matters worse they aren't even hot. Think 6000 Mark Zuckerbergs-although not as hot, as I would do him.

Tomorrow the hubby and I head to Bogota.

So excited.

tits.

The Dude said...

Got caught in a traffic jam today. Figured I would see the charred wreckage of several semis and a dozen cars, based on how stopped traffic was and how long it took to get going again.

It was nothing of the sort - instead I had been ensnared in the mess that the dog-eating commie-in-chief created when he came to buy the youth vote at UNC.

Stay out of our state. Leave our dogs alone.

rcocean said...

Always bet on the green guy.

chickelit said...

I'd hire Darcy if she could stir up Folger's Instant.

chickelit said...

Wait...Folger is not my name and I don't refer to myself in the third person.

Chip S. said...

You might also want to clarify the Instant part.

chickelit said...

A shwing and a miss!

Chip S. said...

That sounds like a day in the chambers of
Judge Wade McCree
.

The Dude said...

I would vote for Raylan, but the body count resulting from his shooting has greatly dropped off as of late. Sure, there is a lot of paperwork, but dude, some people need shootin'.

You gonna shoot people on your show, Troop? Do you need some guns run up from NC? I know people.

Kidding, I don't actually know anyone, especially anyone willing to break the law.

Now where did I put that jug of moonshine?

Darcy said...

I know, Sixty. After watching (the few) episodes where Raylan doesn't shoot anyone, I feel a little let down, too. It's like, "What? Not even a wounding? Really? Awww...pfft!"

What's wrong with us? lol

Darcy said...

And y'all are nawteh.

windbag said...

Stay out of our state.

This.

ndspinelli said...

Darcy, One of the more underappreciated qualities is persistence. Often times others don't see a person who just keeps trying. Persistence means the person is positive and has heart, which are in my opinion two of the best qualities a person can have. No matter what you threw @ Joe Frazier, he just kept comin'. Get in touch w/ your inner Smokin' Joe. And, always remember Stuart Smalleys daily affirmation, "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darnnit, people like me."

Voting my fart would be our host, of course.

Anonymous said...

Darcy, so sorry to hear about the job, maybe it was for a good reason which isn't evident now. The right job offer will come along, probably better than this one, just wait!

Darcy said...

Thanks, Nick. It's great advice.

And thanks, Allie. You all are so kind! That's exactly the way I think and believe - it wasn't meant to be. And maybe I'm going to appreciate what I have a little more now.

I have worked 30 hours a week for years, and the truth is that I get paid very well. I just saw this opportunity for full time work, which would have been a big pay bump and thought maybe it was time to check it out.

Bright side: The sunny season is here and I work from 11:00AM to 5:00 (This other job would have been 8:30-5:30), which means I get to enjoy a little of the day. I mean to savor it this summer.

Michael Haz said...

The coolest guy on TV? Why are we talking about Rachel Maddow?

And Darcy, you could be a CEO somehwere.

chickelit said...

Agree with Haz. Darcy's on the move...she's gonna run something one day.

ndspinelli said...

She's going to run a marathon and a biz!

Darcy said...

You guys. I love the supportive TY crowd.

I don't think marathons are in the cards. I'm still only running 3 miles a day consistently. I need someone to run with me and yell at me, I think.

Michael Haz said...

Darcy - Let your distance find you.

Mary's dearest gf just competed in the Boston, after years of running increasingly longer distances, including a few other marathons.

At 45 her feet and knees are pretty well worn out, even though she weighs a bit under 100 lbs. She loves to run, but having over-done it for years will eventually, perhaps soon, take running away from her.

Enjoy your three mile run!

Chip S. said...

I need someone to run with me and yell at me...

How about if somebody yells at you from behind the wheel of his '59 Caddy?

chickelit said...

I can see from Chip's avatar that he'd be one of those running coaches who drove alongside the athlete offering encouragment.

Trooper York said...

Press Maravich used to have his son Pete dribble a basketball through the window of Caddy as he drove down the road faster and faster until he became Pistol Pete.

blake said...

I'd yell at ya, Darcy, but it'd probably be something like "Slow down!"

Michael Haz said...

I'd be a pretty good coach. I'd ride along side Darcy on an old balloon-tire bicycle, like Burgess Meredith did in Rocky.

I'd be yelling "C'mon Rocky! C'mon Rocky, don't quit! You're not a quitter, Rocky! You never quit....."

I'd have a boom box in the handlebar basket playing this.

Or maybe this.

But not this.

blake said...

And this would be right out.

I have a lot of LW3 on my phone which I listen to while I run. Possibly the worst choice ever for exercise music.

Nothing like huffing your way through 5K and hearing this.

Doin' the math
Is kind of a bummer
You'd best avoid
Crunching that number
...
Doin' the math
Is just a mistake
When it's almost over
Then life's a heartbreaker
...
Doin' the math
Is bringing you down
Gravity and time
Will put you back in the ground
...
That body of yours
Is no longer your friend
Then your minds starts to wander
Where and when will it end


'course, he's mugging when he does it live and it's kind of darkly funny, but the studio version is straighter and darker.

Darcy said...

You guys are all hired. For what, I'm not sure yet. :)

chickelit said...

Why, to watch you jog, of course!
