@Matt not quite but it definitely felt like it, they have large rubber balls on the end so not too bad

Now it’s starting to sound more like my bachelor party.

@Karol It's it very similar. They make a button in liner too for colder weather, but there are great weatherproof outer layers on their own.

@Matt did you get hit in the face by something with large rubber balls on the end of it?

[Matt]

That would have been the least interesting thing I was struck by at my bachelor party.

I told my brother if he turned up to my bachelor party with a costume he was uninvited. Same would have applied to anyone who took part in any stupid shit that I had zero interest in doing.

For mine, we pre gamed before heading to the bar, which we went to and proceeded to drink boilermakers (many) and then to the local strip bar. I walked into the door and immediately started feeling sick. Went outside and proceeded to vomit for the next few hours while my buddies had a great time. Once in a while someone would come check on me to see if I was still alive, upon confirmation, proceeded to go back into the bar for entertainment.

On the drive home, my guts twisted in knots again for which they pulled over to the side of the road. I got out onto the traffic side and proceeded to vomit in the middle of a very busy four lane highway. They did have the courtesy to drag me off the road and get me on the other side of the car. There was a pretty steep embankment which I then rolled down the hill to the bottom of...

We then went fishing the next day on a small lake...at one point I think all of us were chumming for fish...

We went canoeing with plenty of beer, then to a beer garden, then to a bar for more beer. And a couple of G&Ts to mix things up. Just the way I like it

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd had to google boilermaker. Do you drop the shot in the beer or drink the shot in one and follow with beer? We used to drink Uboot (submarine), drop a shot glass of your preferred spirit in a beer and sip away

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago shot in the beer....and drink as quickly as possible.

Baltimore has a rich and storied history with regard to our red light scene. Many of the establishments have been around for many many years and its tradition to visit them before getting married. I think we went to about ten of them. We only got in one fight and it was with a dancer. The manager apologized for her rude behavior and then proceeded to whip me with my own belt on stage while I was tied to a chair.

@endo it was 2008 and my memories of sober events from that time are questionable, not to mention the ones where I blacked out.

Can damaged chain stitch runoffs simply be cut off, or is it better for the integrity of the shirt stitching to knot them before cutting?
