This seems like a lot of work to prepare for the Raiders and their fans. It's like scrubbing your toilet bowl with your toothbrush because you know you're having Popeyes later.

I didn't think it was awful—the characters were all terrible people, and it was fun to see just how terrible they were—but most of it felt like hearing a clip show described by someone who had watched it the night before.

I thought it was fantastic. Was a good run-through of the high points of the series while still remaining thematically consistent. Brought everything full circle with the jail-cell discussion.

Newhart is the standard bearer.

Ah, yes. White liberal guilt. Since I am not a liberal, I do not have guilt on what my ancestors did. One of whom was a high-ranking Confederate official who died 130 years ago. His actions do not affect my own.

I love my people.

Act like you've been there befo- Oh, wait.

I hope there is a truck-wash nearby to power wash the patina of shit/petroleum waste/corpse residue off of that dumb ass.

Or you could just NOT REFRIGERATE your butter.

Microwaved butter:

Living in SEC country, I have been around some of the absolute worst, most vile, most disgusting, most horrible fans on the planet (opposing fans and well as those who root for the same team I do). I have been called everything in the book, had my family insulted, and had things thrown at me. And yet, I have never had…

Failed adoption is another soul-crushing grief experience.

Been there, too. Wife perpetually angry/sad whenever she saw a pregnant woman.

Agree. Add divorce to the list. It's like losing a loved one, but they are still there. And when you add kids to the mix, it's just absurd on the depths of one's grief when a family is split in two. Plus you're also adding regrets, anxiety and anger into the process as well.

I've had friends go through that one. I think they felt like failures. Sucks.

I guess any kind of major failure is another actually. I swear I grieved when I got laid off from my job a few years back.

I should be noted that death is not always the cause of grief. Other things, like a disease diagnosis, can be causes of grief.

The kid workshops at Lowes and HD are geared toward really young kids - like ages 5-8. However, I was going to chip in with the idea of attending the "adult" how-to sessions that these stores have on weekends.

I totally get what you are saying and am not trying to disprove what you are saying...just trying to interject something here. Dose of reality, perhaps. Hopefully.
