There is a convenience store/gas station/car wash chain in the mid-Atlantic states called Sheetz. Well, damn near everyone where I live pronounces it 'Sheetzes'. It drives me up a fucking wall. I was talking to this girl one time in a bar and I brought this up. She argued with me that 'Sheetzes' was correct. I asked her what the big pieces of fabric are that you put on your bed. She said "sheets." I said "Exaclty! Sheets, not sheetses." (I almost wanted to call her Gollum at this point.)
Shit you not, she looks at me with the straightest face and says "Well, the reason the store is pronounced Sheetzes is because it ends with a z, not an s."Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -

I could only hear them laughing at her...eddiec said:
So what did her friends tell her? Did they know?
Do the people that work there call it Sheetzes?HesCalledDyer said:There is a convenience store/gas station/car wash chain in the mid-Atlantic states called Sheetz.

I was in a bar in Pensacola, Florida once in 1999.
downstairs drinking, waiting for my friend's band to start playing upstairs.
this old man who was fucking wasted kept asking, "Are you Navy".
I seriously don't know what the fuck he was talking about?
I had really long hair at the time, so I def wasn't in the Navy.
is "Navy" like a code word for "Gay"?
like the sticking your foot in the next stall because you have a wide stance kinda thing?
fucker freaked me out... but they had the best jukebox ever.livefootsteps.org/user/?usr=446

ha! I went to the bar with Mr. RK and a work buddy of his and his GF...both of the guys had really long hair, and when the bill came, they paid with their corporate card-business dinner.lolobugg said:I was in a bar in Pensacola, Florida once in 1999.

Server comes back, "uh, you guys aren't in the Marines are you?"
all of us are confused, "uh....no"
she says, "oh I was confused because your credit card says 'US Marine'..."
the guys say, "it's a boat company, we design boats"
she still looked so confused, "so you're *not* in the Marines?"
"uh, no"
She says, "I'm so confused..."

also I accidently ended up in a redneck bar once around the same time.
let's just say we were avoiding a police roadblock and needed somewhere to go....
well as I walked in, no shit, I heard some toothless fuck say: "Is that a woman or a man?" referring to my hair.
isn't that a Steve Miller Band lyric? you clichéd fucker. and he only had a few teeth- seriously.
my friend almost hit him with a pool cue later that night. ahhhhh memories of the Florida Panhandle.livefootsteps.org/user/?usr=446
