Coming Attractions and Saturday Night Open Post

Greetings from the Twin Cities! Probably the less said about Tundra’s night the better. After all, I’m much nicer than OMWC.

I will say that if Tundra ever decides to not dis me (this is TWICE now), he will be hard-pressed to measure up to the charm and fine specimens of manhood that are A Leap at the Wheel and Pope Jimbo. They showed us a lovely evening, and I so appreciate them making time to get together with us. It’s good to know who values my friendship and who, well, doesn’t think that much of me.

Tonight we will be having Neapolitan style pizza from Punch Pizza, and I can assure you there will be no pineapple involved.

Anyway, this coming week, Glibs have stepped up yet again with some great articles. We’ll have posts from A Leap at the Wheel, Not Adahn, Web Dom, trshmnstr, robc, Yusef Drives a Kia, The Bearded Hobbit, Suthenboy, and PieInTheSky. And I’ll have a little poll for you in the Wednesday evening spot.

OK, on to the Saturday Night Open Post! Have a great rest of your weekend. (Go Pack!)

    On a train to Osaka with the wife lady, good times.

    Firsties.

    1. DEG

      Have fun!

      1. Mustang

        We will, IYKWIMAITYD.

      You had to specify that your wife is a lady?

      1. Japan, not Thailand.

      2. Mustang

        More like a superhero name for putting up with me.

        The Amazing Wife Lady!

        Something like that…

    1. Damn. That car has got to be keyed to shit.

    We’ll have posts from A Leap at the Wheel, Not Adahn, Web Dom, trshmnstr, robc, Yusef Drives a Kia, The Bearded Hobbit, Suthenboy, and PieInTheSky

    Ooo… looks like a good week. Unfortunately, I probably won’t have time to read any of it.

    1. C. Anacreon

      I fell asleep reading your post.

    1. Scruffy Nerfherder

      I’ve had a really rough night…

  4. Scruffy Nerfherder

    Just watched Raiders with the boy. It occurs to me that the movies I watched as a kid are much bloodier than the ones today.

  5. DEG

    I stopped in at the local brewpub for their 25th anniversary party. They brew a special beer for each anniversary. They had a selection of past anniversary beers available tonight. I got a sampler of all of them. A Belgian triple, a bock, a Baltic Porter, and I forget what else. The food was good. They tapped their Oktoberfestbier. I warmed up for Oktoberfest by having some. It was a good night. I left early because I have some shit to do for work and shit to do around the house.

    1. Scruffy Nerfherder

      A Belgian Triple sounds like something you get in the Amsterdam red light district.

      1. DEG

        Heh.

        It’s a style of beer.

        Amsterdam is more than pot and hookers. But if you want beer in Amsterdam, I recommend Cafe Gollem and The Beer King.

        1. Scruffy Nerfherder

          I spent some time in Amsterdam. It’s an interesting city, and one of the few places in the world where I feel short.

          1. DEG

            The Dutch are a tall people. I feel short too. In New England, I feel tall, when I head back to PA I feel average, and in Amsterdam, I’m short.

    2. Yusef drives a Kia

      Belgian Triple, MMMMM

    3. Nephilium

      3 years from now, I’m up for the meetup in Munich, the girlfriend and I are planning to be there.

      This year the GABF wins.

      1. DEG

        I will remember and we will talk in the future about a Glibertarians meetup in Munich for Oktoberfest.

        1. Rhywun

          I’m down for an Oktoberfest 36 years after my last one.

          1. DEG

            I’m going back, and it’s only been two years since my last.

      2. DEG

        And I hope you enjoy GABF.

        The head brewer at the brewpub from earlier tonight submits beers for competitions at GABF. He sometimes wins (search for Martha’s Exchange). His medals are displayed in a frame on one side of the bar.

        1. Nephilium

          Fathead’s is unique in that they have won a medal in every GABF they’ve entered (including one before they existed). And they’re 3.5 miles from my house.

          1. DEG

            I think I’ve had their beer, but I’ll be damned if I can remember when/where.

  6. Spudalicious

    Boise State kicked the piss out of Troy last week. Tonight they open at home against the hapless UConn in about an hour. I expect to settle in for a good old fashioned ass whoopin’.

  7. Yusef drives a Kia

    Damn Prolific we are!, I like the fact that we don’t Just do current events, but more Lifestyle articles, i have learned quite a bit here and it’s a great place to hang out, with Friends!

      Piss off Tulpa!

    2. Count Potato

      I would do current event articles, but they would be time sensitive.

  8. Nephilium

    After the girlfriend has survived an Indians game, I’ve convinced her to hit up a local dive bar to catch at least the first quarter of the Browns game tomorrow. Solid beer selections, good food, and a dive bar feel. I have the feeling they’ve got one of the Victory Fridges (though I haven’t confirmed it).

    1. DEG

      Blackbeard’s Breakfast is good beer.

      1. Nephilium

        It’s a bit on the sweet side for my tastes, but I love that the dive bar around the corner from me decided to become a beer bar. I’m on the young side of the clientele, and I’m in my 40’s. Some of their deals are insane, 50 cent wings, in orders of 10 only? With a two drink minimum that you usually wave (not that it’s necessary for me and my friends), I’m in. On top of that, they have a decent view of televisions for most of the sportsball stuff.

        1. DEG

          young side of the clientele, and I’m in my 40’s

          Wow.

          It’s funny you say that, because I’m in my 40s. When I first moved to New England, I noticed I tended to be on the young side of the clientele for places I frequented. Now I’m about average.

          Blackbeard’s Breakfast is a sweet, but I have a bit of a sweet tooth. It gets me into trouble.

          1. Rhywun

            All the bars near me seem to cater to oldsters too. Or maybe that’s just what I see when I walk by during the day….

          2. l0b0t

            I recently found a place in Long Beach (Lawn-guy Land) that has been in continuous operation since 1912, is completely covered with pictures and memorabilia, and has the ashes of a former owner in an urn above the bar. Shine’s Bar is so damn close to my beloved in NOLA that I’ve purchased a bridge pass so as to go to Long Beach more often.

          3. l0b0t

            So similar to my beloved Johnny White’s in NOLA.

          4. Nephilium

            There are several places I go to where I know that I’m on the old side (especially some of the newer breweries), but I’ve got a soft place in my heart for the old school proper dives. In those locations, I’ll stick to whisk(e)y, water, and food.

          5. Rhywun

            I much prefer dive bars over any other kind.

          6. westernsloper

            Dive bars are the best bars. The few times I have lived in cities I very much preferred them. In my area now all the bars are dive bars, except maybe one, but there are no taxis, uber, or any ride service so I don’t go to bars and just drink at home alone like a proper alcoholic.

          7. Mustang

            The only time I feel fully comfortable at a bar now are dive bars where there’s no pressure to act a certain way.

            Dive bar with a pool table and just enough people for background noise and I’m happy.

          8. Nephilium

            I got popped on a DUI many years ago, so I no longer drive to bars, and love the advancement of ride sharing. Back in the old days, a taxi cost over $30 close to downtown, now a Lyft/Uber costs under $20. The taxi required an hour wait, the ridesharing has never been over 5 minutes.

          9. Pinball Machine, I miss pinball machines.

          10. westernsloper

            Ya me too Neph. I got one when I was 19 and dumb as dog shit. Now here there is no statute of limitations on priors. If I got one now, and the bac for going to jail is .05 btw, they dig up ANY priors even if they are over 30 years ago and you are a multiple offender.

    2. Tres Cool

      I honestly hope to see Cleveland win tomorrow. Or at some point.
      Cincy plays Indy @ Lucas Stadium, and we have 2 more years of Marvin. So my expectations are low.

      1. Rhywun

        Go Bills!

        That’s all I have.

      2. Nephilium

        I’m shocked that the odds seem to have CLE as the favorite this year.

        1. Tres Cool

          ‘favorite’ is shocking

  9. Tres Cool

    tOSU made a mockery of Rutgers. And Im full of (shitty, low-carb) beer.
    ————————————–message ends——————————————–

    1. Spudalicious

      I mean, seriously, if you want to reduce carbs in your diet, beer is not the place to do it.

      1. Tres Cool

        Carbs is. STR8 calories? Not so much….
        For example, if I choose to limit myself to <50g carbs/day, and some swill like Milwaukee's Best Light (4.2% abv) is 3.5g/12 oz, I can run carb-deficient all day, and knock em back and not even get close. But at 86 calories/12-oz, I need to keep that in mind too.

        1. Spudalicious

          I started to nod off at STR8. But then again, I’ll probably be dead before I reach 70.

          1. Tres Cool

            You were taught to ‘wrench and drench’. Math is probably tough.

          2. Spudalicious

            “Righty tighty, lefty loosey” was a tough nut to crack.

          3. Tres Cool

            City of Dayton firemen literally have L and R on the top of their bunker boots.
            That isn’t a novelty….

          4. Spudalicious

            Ohio.

          5. Nephilium

            Oi Spud! There’s quite a few of us who live in Ohio, and we can count to one, two, pint!

          6. Spudalicious

            Lol! My wife has cousins in Ohio. So…

        2. Sean

          Seriously, you’re sabotaging your keto efforts. Switch to bourbon or other zero carb hooch for a couple months to get the full benefits of ketosis.

  10. BakedPenguin

    Does anyone else here hate Steam? I’ve only used it 2 or 3 times, but I’ve had a crappy experience each time.

    1. Tres Cool

      I only use it for the UCLA score when my internet is out.

    2. Rhywun

      FWIW the Steam client for Mac has always blown chunks. Never had any problems with it on Windows.

    3. Yusef drives a Kia

      Totally hate Steam, don’t and won’t use them, I go here,
      https://www.gog.com/ not all the best, newest games, but they all run on my PC, DRM free, complete offline experience as well

      1. BakedPenguin

        Yeah, I’ve downloaded games from gog as well. I really like not having to sign on to play a game I’ve already paid for.

    4. Nephilium

      Steam has been the least bad digital game market I’ve dealt with. Origins, uPlay, and GOG universe (as much as I love them) have just been terrible.

      1. Yusef drives a Kia

        Odd that we have such different experiences with the 2 platforms, GOG and Steam, any ideas? We both game online and off, what makes the difference?

        1. Nephilium

          I’ll do GOG for my nostalgia games (ones I’ve got sitting on a disc in my closet), and Steam is my regular day to day platform. I also respect GOG for both their link to CD Projekt RED and their anti DRM stand.

      2. Rhywun

        I’ve had Steam games that were also uPlay. Fucking evil.

        1. Nephilium

          I’ve got several that are there, and I hate it. FFS, putting three layers of DRM just makes me want to pirate your game to avoid the BS.

        2. Yeah, the Assassin’s Creed games are like that. So’s my copy of For Honor, and I think a couple others. It’s the damned Steam sales. They’ll put an Ubi or EA game on sale, and it’ll be legitimately cheaper than you’d get from Ubi or EA’s stores, but now you’ve got the damned thing launching from Steam only to download Uplay and launch through that. So there’s two additional points of failure, which is annoying as shit. I don’t buy games at launch anymore, but I’ve definitely bought Ubi games that launched on Steam and then were borked in the Ubi launcher because there was some cache issue or something.

      3. That’s sort of where I am, although it might just be because it’s the first I’ve used and so I’m used to it. I’ve had a Steam account since 2004, and I’ve got just shy of 500 games on it. I’ve had problems with Steam in the past, but not for years. I’ve had similar problems with uPlay, but not Origins or GoG Universe. It’s just that I don’t need multiple game launchers, so even though I really like GoG’s anti-DRM position and I’ve moved games over to my GoG account where possible (check out http://www.gog.com/connect) I rarely use it since I’ve got most of my stuff on Steam or, at this point, uPlay.

  11. Tundra

    Harsh.

    1. SP

      Oh, so my disappointment came through?

      1. Tundra

        Yep.

    2. RAHeinlein

      Just be grateful she didn’t ghost your avatar.

      1. Nephilium

        Wait, you’re still a person?

    3. Nephilium

      I’ll drink a beer in your honor if it helps…

      1. Yusef drives a Kia

        Are we Happy Neph?
        Cheers!

        1. Nephilium

          You’re still with us, and I’ve got several bottles to work through. And I’ve had to add something to the next BIF just because of you. Who wants shirts? 🙂

    4. Playa Manhattan

      You had…. vertigo?

      Yeah, my grandma had that.

      1. Tundra

        Yep.

        1. Playa Manhattan

          You’re making this not fun.

          1. Tundra

            It isn’t fun. Look up Meniere’s and pray you never know what the fuck it is.

          2. westernsloper

            So the Triumph is still ok? Good to hear. Sorry for the equilibrium issues and note that I did not make a joke about “Men” being the first part of that disorder. I trust you will get that sorted out.

  12. B^3. Blonde, big boobs.

    http://archive.is/E7Cz2

    The whole list. My weakness.

    1. Yusef drives a Kia

      Don’t like Blondes. Like #1 though, Thicc

  13. Serena Williams loses her shit then loses the match at the Final of the US Open. She then plays the victim card and the media predictably plays along.

    https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2018/09/a-heart-breaking-grand-slam/569704/

    You break your racket and yell at the umpire you’re going to get penalized. But no. It always has to be political and about racism, sexism etc. etc. etc. etc. *barf*.

    Stop the world I want to get off.

    1. Mustang

      What a bitch. She gets beat out by a woman who says she is just thrilled to play her idol and throws a tantrum, making it all about her? She even seems to imply that she would have won had those calls not been made. Way to be a role model for your opponent who idolizes you.

    2. Rhywun

      They also witnessed exactly what women of color lifting each other up looks like

      Oh FFS that came faster than I expected.

      In this case, 20-year-old Naomi Osaka, who was born in Japan to a Japanese mother and Haitian father,

      And she was raised in the US from the age of three. She talks like a Valley girl.

      Superstar athletes are rarely as generous, or as classy, or as outright talented as Serena Williams was on Saturday.

      Yawn. She was being outplayed anyway.

      1. If she were that talented, she would have won.

        1. Rhywun

          My first thought as I was watching was “there will be two completely opposite narratives of what’s going on here, almost as if people were watching two different matches”.

    3. Rufus the Monocled

      Yeh I just sat down to watch some sports highlights and saw that.

      The more she yapped the more I didn’t like her shtick.

  14. slumbrew

    So, is it bad form to point out that SP SF’d the link? Asking for a friend.

    1. Nephilium

      Duck and cover man! Duck and Cover!

      1. Yusef drives a Kia

        Cat Butt Incoming!

        1. SP

          I have never once cat-butted. In fact, I have bestowed Get Out of Cat Butt Free cards on a selected few.

          1. True dat, and I hope to never need it so I can take it out of its protective plastic envelope from time to time and show it to my kids.

          2. Chafed

            I have one too. My Swiss guards protect it.

    2. Tres Cool

      ..and that time Hyperbole pointed out the (alleged) hypocrisy of the site’s TOS vis a vis Twitter banning people……

      1. Ahem, That’s “The” Hyperbole, Tres, “THE” And there was no alleged pointing out of anything, I simply copy pasta’d the commenting policy from the sites main page.

        1. Yusef drives a Kia

          I guess Hype is OK then? that’s what I call you……….

          1. It’s all good. Whatever you call me, rest assured it won’t be the worst thing I’ve been called.

    3. SP

      Well, I’m trying to fulfill my website duties through my tears over the Tundra disappointment. (And on my phone on a shitty hotel WiFi connection, so switched to data halfway through and fucked it up.)

      1. SP

        Huh, well my syntax was (predictably) perfect, but apparently WP doesn’t like the quote marks my phone keyboard uses. It was impossible to fix it from my phone. That’s good to know.

        1. slumbrew

          You are not alone: “Smart” quotes are a pox upon the face of the Earth

          (for the uninitiated, JWZ is a geek of some note – one of the original Mozilla developers. He’s got massive TDS, but his non-political posts remain quality old-man ranting).

          1. SP

            Oh, I am well aware, since I am constantly editing contributors’ posts from Word (et. al.) to WP. I just haven’t had occasion to try to write an html link in WP from my phone before. I am soooooo rarely without my ‘puter, but didn’t feel like lugging it along this weekend.

      2. Spudalicious

        Obviously, Tundra needs to be mocked shamed and banned. Seriously, it’s time to fuck that shit up.

  15. westernsloper

    he will be hard-pressed to measure up to the charm and fine specimens of manhood that are A Leap at the Wheel and Pope Jimbo.

    I have no problem believing Tundra picked up a tranny hooker and wrecked his convertible in a canal, and or believe Leap is a fine person, but I am reaching in my beliefs if I want to consider His Holiness of Minnasoda a fine person as well so I am going with that statement being internally fact checked as partially factual.

  16. Playa Manhattan

    BYU’s quarterback is 25? What the fuck, Mormons?

    I was 17 when I went to college.

    1. l0b0t

      Veteran perhaps? I didn’t start college until after the Army got through with me.

      1. Playa Manhattan

        Mormon. The entire team is in their mid 20s. And they have a Polynesian pipeline.

        Nice people. I’d be honored to have them as neighbors. But don’t cheat at college sports.

    2. westernsloper

      Were you a quarterback?

      1. l0b0t

        Nah… I was always three steps ahead! WOKKA WOKKA!

      2. Playa Manhattan

        Corner. At a school with spotty internet.

        1. westernsloper

          Ya, internet is slower than lite rail in CA.

          1. Yusef drives a Kia

            Whatever Colorado Boy, I live next to ONT,very critical, great internet

          2. westernsloper

            *sigh….oh Yufus, I was making a joke on Playas worn out joke of having bad internet to get a Cal score. And you are leaving anyway, quit defending that state.

          3. Playa Manhattan

            YOU’RE WORN OUT

          4. westernsloper

            You have no idea. Hopefully nothing a good Orthopedic surgeon can’t sort out. We shall see.

    3. He got held back a few years in high school.

    4. Juvenile Bluster

      Happens all the time at BYU. They spend a few years on missions before going to college.

      1. Playa Manhattan

        A few years is an understatement.

        Some of these dudes have grey hair.

    5. Spudalicious

      You would think that because BYU players are two years older because of going on mission, that they would have an advantage. And yet they still suck.

      1. Playa Manhattan

        Curse them and their hot wives!

        1. Spudalicious

          Seriously, how brilliant can they be? The husband gets to decide if the wife goes to heaven. The local gyms are full of hot Mormon milfs in leggings.

          1. The women are the primary recruiting tool for the LDS.

          2. Gustave Lytton

            There’s a big incentive to do workouts.

          3. Playa Manhattan

            Well, yes. You don’t want to get fired from your job.

          4. Count Potato

            The husband gets to decide if the wife goes to heaven?

          5. Gadianton

            The husband gets to decide if the wife goes to heaven.

            News to me. Can we get a source for that?

  17. Rhywun

    So I went looking for ST:DS9 on BluRay and discovered why it will never happen. Long but interesting read.

    Though I have to admit that never having owned ST:TNG on any media, that’s going on my wishlist toot sweet.

    1. *Nerd alert to the max*

      Mid 90s. Shortly after TNG ended. Local network station was playing it in syndication nightly at 2 am. I set the timer to tape it each and every night, carefully cataloging them. Now I have the whole series on VHS with cheesy local Albuquerque late-night commercials intact.

      You may now begin to ridicule me.

      1. BakedPenguin

        I’m watching a rerun of Voyager I taped a while ago, that might be a tad hypocritical.

      2. Nephilium

        I’m sorry, There was an old site that was the internet archive project (back in the day). I’ll still promote Babylon 5 over DS9 any day of the week, three times if I’m drinking.

        1. Chafed

          And you’d be right.

    2. Rhywun

      After reading that, I am left with one question – if I were to subscribe to one of those streaming thingies (not bloody likely), and they showed DS9, would I be getting the same crappy picture I get on my DVD’s?

      1. Yusef drives a Kia

        See above, Fuck DRM, email me

      2. Netflix has got the whole series. Not Blu-Ray quality though.

      3. trshmnstr

        Yep, SD quality. (just watched through DS9 and Voyager on Netflix)

    3. Count Potato

      “Here’s where it gets both interesting and maddening. In the mid-1980s, the advent of cheaper and cheaper computing technology allowed video post-production to grow more and more sophisticated. Now, a new post-production methodology, once existing only for shows originating on videotape, like soap operas and talk shows, could now be applied to shows shot originally on film. A program could be shot on 35mm film, but instead of editing on film and then cutting negative, the original 35mm material footage would instead be scanned to videotape — at NTSC resolution, and the rest of the post-production process, editing, mixing, etc., would then be completed on tape, at a reduced cost. However, NO FILM NEGATIVE WAS CUT, so the final product would only exist on videotape, at NTSC’s greatly reduced video resolution and color. True blacks, stable reds and rich blues simply didn’t exist on videotape. Those shows originally shot on 35mm, with a 20 megapixel resolution, were never to be seen again if finished on tape.”

      That makes sense.

        Yeah and it’s something else that they sunk millions of dollars into reshooting all the effects (and adding extras) for TNG just in time for streaming to destroy the market for such things. There truly is nothing millenials haven’t ruined.

    I had to go to dinner with my dad, his wife, and her family tonight. Holy fuck that was torture. It’s like every stereotype of a leftist conspiracy theorist (“TRUMP IS GOING TO MAKE HIMSELF DICTATOR!”) together at once and dismissing any suggestion that it might be bullshit.

    Fuck.

      …. is she hot?

          is she hot?

          From what you’ve said in the past, I think my income level is somewhere near your dad’s.

          If I got divorced (which I never will), I’d like to think that there would be an endless parade of attractive skanks.

        I knew a doctor that had done thousands of circumcisions over his career. I asked him what he did with the foreskins. He said that he saved them I need a jar of preservative, but that just recently he decided to do something with them. So he brought them to a leathersmith and asked that they be made into something. Well, he returns a week later and the guy there hands him a wallet. “All I get out of those couple thousand foreskins is a wallet? How’s that possible.”

        7-0 Cal. It will only get worse.

      3. Juvenile Bluster

        OK, I’ll tell you. I mean, Cal is trying, but he’s only one guy, and he’s playing against an entire team, so BYU is winning by 90 in the 1st quarter.

    6. BakedPenguin

      Cal’s up 7-0. The BYU boys are thinking about their hot wives.

    DOJ: Man sextorted women after giving up password reset clues, like pets’ names

    Federal agents arrested a former NASA contractor at his home in Los Angeles on Thursday, accusing him of sextortion.

        Way back machine?

    1. slumbrew

      Sextortion? I assume that’s a typo, due to some sort of very sexy learning disability.

      1. For a while I thought it was some kind of tortious sex, as in “sex-torted”.

    Finally sealed up my offset smoker and it’s weird not constantly checking fuel consumption. Been on 2nd batch of charcoal for 4 hours and overall the smoker has been running for 9 hours at a beautiful 225deg.

    I just have to adjust when I want higher temps now since I topped out at 300deg with my normal fuel load.

    cheers!

      Sweet!

    I’m stepping in to the Joe Rogan/ Elon Musk interview, all 2 and a half hours, Will report back later…

    1. straffinrun

      Love that Musk did that interview. He’s a weirdo, but that he’d put himself in that seat for two and a half hours? Props.

      If Tundra had just admitted to diarrhea, we would have left him alone.

      I will say, as shit as the prequels were, they were bloated enough to allow some room for fan edits; but all the trash in the new movies can’t be cut because the story itself is so simplistic and only linked together by the shitty scenes.

    Conceptual Genius, Musk is very up to date on what the Fuck is happening,

  29. Yusef drives a Kia

    AGGGGHH! I hate Rogan, He’s a Fake simpleton trying to grab clicks,what an ass!

    1. CPRM

      Maybe you should change your handle to ‘Yusef talks to Himself’

    55-7 and over a quarter to go. I think BSU has covered the spread of 33.

      One of the many reasons I don’t give a fuck about NCAA, the stratification of talent is so obvious. I mean, the Browns have sucked for the last 18 years, but even they don’t get blown out as bad as a lot of NCAA games.

      1. straffinrun

        Seriously. Just checked the scores from today’s games. Blowouts everywhere. Why would anyone want to watch Miami beat Savannah 77-0?

            You a racist? You don’t want to see a black woman playing a non-gendered shape shifting character, who in reality was married to a non-binary Stardust?

        No kidding. It’s like watching the ‘Niners win the Super Bowl 55-10.

    Would I be a hero if I secretly took documents off my boss’s desk tomorrow morning? Maybe I’ll give it a shot given how it seems to be acceptable these days.

      What? a bunch of old invoices? Go for it! No one will notice any way!
      I wonder how much it would be to Ship a 6 pack of Good Glib beer to you, I’d pitch in…

        I’m good. A fifth of whisky, some dried squid and watching pro snooker on Youtube. I don’t know what the hell I’ve become.

        1. Spudalicious

          There’s an EU dart league on Thursday nights. They fill stadiums for that crap.

          1. straffinrun

            Darts is a cool sport, hobby or whatever you call it. Snooker is my latest passion. It’ll grow on you.

        2. A drunk gaijin?

        3. CPRM

          Dried squid is the weirdest euphemism yet.

          1. Gustave Lytton

            Straff has mentioned more than once that he’s married.

    2. CPRM

      But I’m guessing your boss is asian, that makes him a minority and doing that a hate crime. (spare me your whole ‘I’m a minority in this country’ speil, we all know white men are the dominant force where ever they go and can never be oppressesd)

    The power flickered back on, and then it went back out. The fridge is done.

    Does anyone have the Cal score?

    1. I’m afraid Armageddon happened. That’s why you have no power. I’m typing this from the last remaining Wifi accessible area located in Cheyenne Mountain. None of us will survive the night. May G-d have mercy on us all.

      1. Yusef drives a Kia

        That’s why I lost power! I need to do an ammo check so my Shells still work, thanks Q!

      You mean Fried? I lost power today and RAN to unplug my Fridge, Edison has killed 2 Fridges in the last 6 years, and they don’t have to pay for them if they die, Good Luck!

    4. Spudalicious

      Damn, Cal’s up 21-10 in the fourth quarter.

      I’m out. You’re on your own for the rest of the game.

      1. C. Anacreon

        Just got back from the Stanford game. They beat USC 17-3. Absolutely perfect weather, great seats, good buddies and good beer, nice way to spend a Saturday.
