The Swamp

I'm not sure how I missed this one when it first came out, but this SNL skit is awesome.

To tie it back to the previous discussion they also use MS Teams instead of Slack, which just...what the fuck! Why?

I'm over the Ben Roethlisberger experience, btw. He looks like late-career Eli Manning, but they'll probably fall for all of these fluff numbers and ride it one more year. People had been saying that he was playing well this year and at no point did I have any idea what they were watching. This WR ...

Oh man, I missed this. I'm really sorry. I have nothing to add that others haven't said. The wife and I didn't go through this, but I know the fear of thinking it may have happened when there's some unexpected blood. And I had at least one sister-in-law go through it (during family holiday time so e...

It's interesting how comparing the two really shows the development of US soccer. When Claudio was 18 he was the #1 high school player in the country (a huge recruit) and then a key piece as a freshman of UVA's national championship team. He went on to be a 1st Team AA and national player of the yea...

Did you guys see the video Trump posted to Parler? https://video.parler.com/D2/fo/D2fovQB1v4M2_small.mp4?fbclid=IwAR2dzJvApDp0W5B8F65fnzmruTu1vvoN9MqzR_-7FWD61S7LVrznAkCO_Ns Jesus titty-bleeping Christ.

I hated that punt decision. I think if the Steelers go and get it (tbf, not a sure thing), I think they probably drive for another TD and the Browns are reeling. I also didn't understand kicking the extra point when they scored to make it a 13-point game. Why not go for 2 there? To be fair, I would ...

Someone (backpack dude, maybe) pulls off his helmet. And then the long beard dude (beige j...

Natural playmaker? Holding mid? Maybe they have those. Pulisic doesn't seem either to me. Haven't seen lots of the presumed squad. Adams in particular so not sure if he is either. Assume Reyna but maybe not his dad. I think Reyna is going to be better than his father . He is faster and more of an a...

wow, pretty crazy hand. Both of those guys got rivered!

Not much joy has come out of that mess yet, but I'll be damned if the trampled Gadsden flag lady and the tased-my-balls-to-death guy aren't making it close.

I saw a picture of that guy earlier and thought - "they let a Jew in their club?" Ha! I had the same thought. Reading this line in the article: the sone of "Shlomo Mostofsky, a prominent modern Orthodox figure in Brooklyn" , had me wishing he was next to the Camp Auschwitz shirt guy or the "6MNE" t...

DaveinSeattle has some crazy people on his feed. Woof.
Its what I get for letting my pissed off state loose on Facebook.

That's my cousin. Yeah, she's nuts. Boy, am I glad I blocked my Aunt a few months ago.

She seems nice

I disagree that callousness is a necessary component of capitalism. It's just not. It can be, of course, but it's not necessary. That we've equated the two lately in the US doesn't mean they're the same thing.

Not this guy.

I sometimes drive though Kinston on the way to/from the beach. It's a sad town. It grew up on tobacco and textile manufacturing money that's just not coming back.

Kinston High School in Kinston, NC was founded in 1970 when the two segregated high schools were combined. Since then, one in every 58 players on the Kinston High basketball team has been drafted or played in the NBA.

What's clear is that a LOT of Americans have little to no compassion or empathy for others. And because of this, they just don't understand the actions of those that do. They look like idiots or cowards to them, because their concerned about things that don't matter. But then, of course, when these ...

We're transitioning from Slack to Teams sometime soon. I think it's gonna be painful even though they're probably 90% the same thing.

And yeah, Slack being down this morning was a pain in the ass.

So. I have reached a milestone, and not a good one. I have reached 200lbs for the time in my life. I'm probably by definition obese now. I'm only 5'7" and slight build. I've gained 20lbs since the lockdown. I need to exercise and eat better. I'll try to work out. I tried this video but could only f...

I haven't used a browser that easily played Flash in long while. The only time I ever ran into issues was trying to use some airlines' shitty video players.

Haven't read the article, but I remember that a number of beach towns did the same thing, or at least publicly considered it. Seems like a pretty tricky legal issue.

I just finished Season 2 of After Life. Holy hell what a bleak show. It mixes in just enough comedy to keep you going, but then continually breaks your heart. It's well written and has a lot of great character actors, but man, I wonder what drove Ricky Gervais to make that.

Referring to anyone who isn't a friend by only their last name is weird and probably disrespectful. I mean in person, obviously; in writing it's fine.

We watched Home Alone 2 for the first time the other night. It's funny in that it's nearly the EXACT same movie, with the same plot point as the first one, but just set in NYC instead of his house in Chicago. Still better than it had any right to be though. The big difference that makes the sequel ...

Merry Christmas, y'all. Spent it with the family at the beach - honestly pretty much like several of our recent Christmases. It was (and still is) nice. We watched Home Alone 2 for the first time the other night. It's funny in that it's nearly the EXACT same movie, with the same plot point as the fi...

I think it's a strong caregiver/mothering instinct that has gone awry. These women are drawn to and want to fix/help/support these bad guys who they probably think are being unfairly punished.

Notre Dame football coach rips Rose Bowl Kelly threatens to boycott the game if fans cannot attend.

And now that this thread has gotten a little traction, time for a Mellencamp-related hot take: Even though she’s only got the second-best head of hair in the Cherry Bomb video, the fiddle player is *still* the gold standard for hot fiddle players. https://media.tenor.com/images/e0b063c42ae5072c5e75...

Fair enough. Let's say 1 or fewer high schools.

Any town that's part of a larger metro area is not a small town, regardless of population.

A small town has one public high school.

Outside of Jack & Diane, I never liked his stuff. Something about him always bugged me.
