My bad... what ljam said.

And the reason I'm not saying DC is that a TON of Salvadorans live in MD and VA suburbs.

OMG. I missed that thread.

The Inbredables.

Comedy gold in that thread.

We've said it many times over the years, and it predates Drumpf... When the notion of "shame" left the political arena (almost exclusively, but not entirely, on the right side of the aisle) this type of shit was the logical endpoint. The tipping point was probably Palin, but the deeper roo...

For those that aren't aware, there is a sizeable Salvadoran community in the DMV.

I don't know how it missed me, but I only watched a few episodes of GG.

Weird. Bonaire is one of those teams that can only "compete" in CONCACAF tournaments.

I was on that island for 2 weeks and couldn't find a place to buy a jersey on the entire island, and looking online was pretty much impossible to find one.

Wait, what??!

I'm an idiot. Didn't see the date stamp on these posts.

When real life imitates art.

(Latest season of Fargo has a very similarly cringe-worthy family photo.)

Yeah, that's not how AI technology is progressing. We are in the stage RIGHT NOW where we can (mostly) tell. Particularly with video. With still images, I think we're pretty much past the threshold. But we're probably 12-24 months away from it being almost impossible to tell. Shit needs to get regul...

A project manager used "project cadance" the other day. Still don't know what it means. "Cadence" is just another way of saying schedule or frequency. For example, just a couple of weeks ago I got the ok to change the "cadence" of some triage meetings from 4 days a wee...

I feel like Punchy had a moment of being like Calvin as a window sticker on pickup trucks.

Well, I'll say that I've been to dozens of Chicken Filets up and down the eastern coast and out to the Rockies and I've never had anything other than a pleasant, highly efficient experience. And I've never looked at a long line at that joint and said "nope" because they know how to move th...

And Imma be pedantic, but it kind of bugs me when they don't just say "Tex-Mex" was is an American invention that is only tangential to actual "Mexican" food. So, unless they are actually talking about traditional Mexican food/cuisine, saying that the best Tex-Mex is in Arizona ...

Also, you can also just say "that's just the way it is" and avoid using the "it is what it is" nonsense.

"What's the request?" is short, to the point and not douchey.

Nonlinear FC

And, not for nothing, but I've been saying this for decades. It's not even about players "getting hurt." In almost every situation, students rushing the court are, at a minimum, jostling and taunting the opposing team. It's absolute bullshit from a straight up sportsmanship standpoint. Let...

One or two security guards in an aisle trying to stop hundreds of determined kids is not the solution. The solution is to forfeit the game and/or no fans at the next home game. Pretty simple. Don't worry about the logistics of hiring minimum wage "security" guards who don't really give a f...

Ok, well right off the top Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family is INSANE. Centers around the guy strongly suspected to be the Black Dahlia killer, but it's from two of his granddaughters and the family story is FUCKED UP. I'll go back and look for more.

Shake Shack remains a top notch fast-casual option. Love the crinkle fries. Got the Smoke Shack with bacon and peppers.

They are rolling with some Korean-style sandwiches and I'm tempted to head back there soon to try it out. Looks delicious.

Not exactly what we were talking about, but certainly certainly nice to see some accountability.

I'm not on that platform (broken record), but... WaPo had an article that the severe lack of moderation is allowing a lot of AI Deep Fake Porn to proliferate... And not just the recent TayTay incident.

That place fucking sucks.

Miller's is probably in my top 20 of all time. The soundtrack is underrated, but that might be the Irish in me.

Doesn’t sound legal at all and yes this is a naive thing to say. With Lara Trump as the RNC Chair, I'm sure she will act in the best interest of the Party. There have been rumblings about Trump fundraising being fraudulent for many years. I think they send out those emails with just enough of a tet...

I'm almost positive you are correct. My buddy was over on Sunday and was wearing something from Costco that looked a lot like Vuori's.

Nonlinear FC

I tend to pick one of these brands and ride or die them. Mack Weldon socks, Tommy John underwear, Under Armor golf shirts/shorts and now loading up on Vuori.

I'd like to buy more Toes on the Nose beachy stuff, but they are tough to get on sale.

ETA: it's also the four highest-ranked conference champions. that's splitting hairs a bit, but it's not exclusive to the four power conferences

Nope, not splitting, good point.

Damn. Are you just embracing the 90's baggy clothes look that all the kids are rocking now? Actually perusing and trying to wear pants cut more slim and what not. It's a weird world at the moment.

Sooooo... Kind of a little bit lost in the news churn the last few days was the ratification of the CFB playoff rules. Specifically, that the winners of the SEC, B1G, ACC and Big 12 all get the top 1-4 seeds for the playoffs. This means Notre Dame, under existing rules, can go 12-0 and the best they...

Yeah, I mean you kind of saw that even in the limited schedule the old guys played last season.

Congrats, tb!! The 180s was where I was at in college. I haven't been below 200 in over a decade. I'm also fairly lazy and beyond regular walks with the wife (and now dog) I do zero working out. Need to get out of that rut. Pretty sure I could drop 5-7 pounds pretty easily if I tried. (I've actually...

Running low on podcasts with all this time in the truck so looking for recs on good history or documentary podcasts.

Jack Tuttle just received a waiver to play his SEVENTH SEASON of college football at MI. (I mean, he transferred in from Indiana, to be clear.) He's somewhere in the 3rd / 4th string zone, and that's before whatever happens in the spring transfer portal. Like, dude... maybe start looking to your fut...

Yeah, I see that deflection (good catch, I didn't really see it on first watch). I still have to wonder why Blake couldn't get a better angle and/or do something more standard there. Goalies, by instinct/training, don't like to leave their feet unless really necessary. It's like in basketball when y...

I've got a whole thing teed up about the children of the ww2 generation being full of serial killers. But I don't feel like typing it all out.

Goalie's fault or defender's? I'm gonna say about 60/40 the defender's fault for playing a ball like that back to his keeper. That's actually a really good question.
