WILL YOU PROTECT THE CODE????

I almost forgot–the Michael Jackson story, which prominently features this weirdo from Texas, will be airing at noon EDT on A&E on Saturday, August 5th. I erroneously said it would be on August 4th, but I just looked it up again and see it’s the 5th. Get your TiVo ready! For more information, check this link. Of note–never again will you see my name in the same paragraph as Liza Minnelli’s.
I would like to start by saying how much I appreciate the feedback from the post on that sorry waiter. I’ll never take solace in the fact that another man has a less glamorous profession than me. I think that’s just wrong. However, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with wishing that he have a calamity on the job caused by forgetting to wash the syrup off his hands before he goes to take a leak.
But anyway, no one really addressed the key. We need to formally draft the G-Code. It must be written, and we must begin to take the steps to develop the infrastructure necessary to enforce The Code. We can laugh at dudes like him, but they are not funny. They are embarrassments to us all. They endanger everyone’s safety. They put people in awkward situations.
And, quite frankly, they’re herbs. And no one likes a herb.
So we must begin–today–planning a meeting of the G-Code Committeee. We need a location, and we need a nomination process to determine who will be able to assist with this massive endeavor. Please let us know anyone you know of that deserves a role in this process.
It’s the fate of the friggin’ free world that I worry about, man. So all I wanna know is….
…who’s comin with me???

    Some things are better left informal, so that they can evolve over time as the times demand. Besides, you’d need 10 buildings just to house everyone involved, and it would take up hundreds of volumes to even begin to cover the basics.
    He offers wisdom. But we must try. I think Vegas would appreciate hosting an event like this.

    I propose a national G-Code organization with a yearly conference to discuss major Code issues/violations. In the meantime, we need to start up local chapters to deal with the Waiters and Rasheed’s in the world.

    I guess age has mellowed me. You kids today and your G-Code… Sheesh! I guess “G” is for “ganstah?” If so, that’s a good code to live by. (sarcasm)
    Don’t let that shit fester in you Bo. It leaves less room inside for better emotions.
    Peace!

    Let it be drafted. Corny dudes have had their stand for too long. Pancakes and coffee will be available immediately following the meeting.

    I like the idea of an actual G-Code. Most of it would be pretty easy to write since its mostly a bunch of common sense.
    A G-Code is so necessary right now. I dont mean to romanticize the past, but it seems like this generation(s) have lost the virtues of being a stand-up man. We got cats like ol Pancake Boy running around like a mark ass busta just because he dont know no better than to disrespect two grown adults. Every once in a while you will run across a cat who knows and lives by the code, and there is a magical connection there. But that spark is few and far between. I have too many anecdotes about G-Code violations to sit back any further.
    If we want to stop all mark ass bustas, trick ass marks, bitch ass tricks, and all skip-skap scallywops … a G-Code is imperative.

    Wait a minute, did you say PANCAKES after the meeting? OK, I’m down… Sign me up! I’d sell a kidney for fluffy pancakes drowned in a mix of maple and coconut syrup.
    Not MY kidney mind you, but I’d sell someone’s… Kirk’s maybe.

    Might want to hold on to those kidneys. Gonna have to stay in good shape in case OU needs you to play QB this year.
    All this talk about pancakes, coffee, and red stripe is shameful and decidedly un-manly. The menu shall consist of the cheapest whiskey money can buy, raw red meat, marlboros stacked to the ceiling, and pizza that comes in fresh every 2 hours. And strippers.

    I believe in an effort to give the G-Code a certain balance, there should be a place at the table for those “Gs” who operate slightly outside of the mainstream of the conventional G-Code without desecrating the obvious spirit of it, informal as it may be.
    Clearly this is a grand and monumental undertaking, perhaps you might want to speak on the format you think might be appropriate.
    a Continental Congress of sorts seems to be in the offing, with you as the primary author and the Congress there to offer a certain amount of balance to it.
    One thing for sure…it is NECESSARY..when random waiters start running game over top of you..while youre sitting there…the apocalypse is upon us.

    How about punch and pie? More people will show up if we tell them there’s punch and pie.

    Sounds like a book to me. With comedic antedotes.
    I’d give it out as gifts among my male friends. All men should get a copy.
