Now that you mention it, they finally stopped delivering phone books here. Haven’t found one in my driveway for years.

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
I'm trying to come up with one legitimate criticism or negative judgement for Bruce Springsteen. Anyone got anything?

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
Maybe that Bruce knows how to correctly spell the word “judgment”?

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
That would probably be a pro though, right?

makes confusing patriotic songs
Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
None of that gets me all that hard.
By the way, I'm an excellent speller. Won every spelling bee until 7th grade and had a complete meltdown leading to a week of detention for that L. For some reason, I never fucking know how to spell judgment. It probably helps also that the other one is the British way so spellcheck doesn't even redline it.

Honestly, I always thought the next line was far more egregious but I also thought it was "making love like a schoolboy."

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
Same but also ... have you ever seen the video? I saw it for the first time a few weeks ago and how the fuck did they let him throw? I know I've said this before, but a part of the reason Major League is because most of the actors were convincing enough. Charlie Sheen pitched like a normal dude who has thrown a baseball before in his life. Springsteen looks like me if I tried to throw a football lefthanded.

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
a billion times yes. MTV played the fk out of that video - that's what bothered me/my little group so much as kids. "Nettles got me....bottom of the 9th" - like you're weighing in actual players and then you go out and embarrass yourself with speedball and looking like you're shotputting a baseball.

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
Same. I don't dislike Springsteen, but I find it incredibly fun to poke the super fans and that thread dying on page 1 means not enough saw it.
Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
My opinion on Springsteen in my life is like a bell curve.

TIL porn is illegal/blocked in Utah. Only other place I’ve seen that is Thailand, a military dictatorship.

I experienced that in Louisiana last weekend. I was prompted to upload my LA drivers license which I obviously did not have. Luckily I was able to access the needed hangover porn by simply turning off my phone’s WiFi.

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
Reach out to friends who seem to have disappeared. They need the love. I have a buddy going through some shit and we talked for hours yesterday. He needed it. His wife told me he was smiling and laughing after the call and she hadn’t seen him that happy in months. Life is busy, I get it, but you’ll be angry at yourself if that person is suddenly gone (my worry w this guy) and you were “too busy” to reach out. Yes, the phone works both ways, but my buddy “didn’t want to bother me with his shit” and didn’t call. I added a calendar appointment weekly on my phone to call and/or text him.
I’m here if anybody needs me and feels like they don’t have anyone to talk to. I’m an outstanding listener.

Doesn't Utah already have pretty hot women? I always think of Mormons as being fairly attractive.

And it sucks because a buddy of mine that I really, truly looked up to because he was just so damn cool killed himself recently and it absolutely blindsided me. We hadn't chatted in a while but I'd see his posts every so often on Instagram.
Air Force Master Sergeant. Good looking dude with an awesome wife (who's currently pregnant) and a kid. And he was in the SERE career field which is high speed and one of the 'real jobs' that you can make commercials out of.
I just don't get it. I feel guilty for not saying hi sooner, but I just didn't know. And I would've dropped everything if he needed something. It just sucks.
