I hear the Mariners get called "the M's" on a regular basis, but "the Seattle M's" is not a term I'm familiar with.

Exact same experience (except I believe we thought of MMPR fans as "babies," not "homos").

Congratulations on missing the point so widely God Himself could not come up with a metaphor that could adequately express your failure.

Why the fuck would you explain a dirty joke about a product name to your 3-year-old? When they ask what "Nestle" means, are you going to tell them it's a hole cut through a restroom stall for anonymous sex?

Then parents might have to change the subject or lie to their children over something incredibly trivial. We should just save these kids the next two decades and send them to Intervention right now.

Results-based analysis!

The twenty exclamation points convinced me to "like" this.

If I were sober, I could probably name every ship manufacturer in the Empire. But I'm not sober. So I can only tell you about Kuat and Sienar at this instant.

I know a shameful amount of Star Wars trivia from playing that game. Checked out for good in like 2006, though.

You're facing a real shiticane for that one, Crazy Gibberish.

Their sci-fi collection is really, really hilarious too. To the point where I can't even watch that shit as background noise while working. And I'm a guy who genuinely enjoys 2012.

Damn, I was going to say something like this about the Mariners.

What? "If you want the ultimate, you've got to be willing to pay the ultimate price" is one of the koans. It's right there in The Gateless Gate. Near the back.

Agreed. Now if you could kill someone on your way out, it would help me a lot!

Oh yeah? Then explain You Only Move Twice!

"I think we should dress the snowmen." "Agreed."

For the last few weeks, they've been playing spots for Creature in the ads before the real trailers at the AMC I go to.

The reason NFL careers can last 15-20 years is because hardly any of the players take hits on any given play. Sure, the linesmen shove each other around on every down, but that's different than getting sacked or safety-clobbered over the middle.
