I like that she said “acting” though. When people talk about how Insanely Busy their lives are, there is always some substantial portion that has to do with choices that are made. I’m the single parent of a teenage boy and, yeah, my life is busy. But unless you’re working 7 days a week, there’s always some time to be…

I didn’t get to ride in one, but I got to sit in one. I was in Civil Air Patrol for a bit when I was a kid and we did an encampment at Davis Monthan in AZ. That was 1982 and the A-10 is still my fav aircraft.

At least it didn’t end like Easy Rider?

Good to know! Thanks.

“Why pink? Because fuck you; that’s why.” I know it’s overused, but still:

Right? THANKS OBAMA

“the story of an animal who leaned the fuck in:” I’m going to be chuckling over that all weekend. Thank you....

+1 for using “major professional football game” instead of the term you are not allowed to use. Yeah, you used “big game” in the headline, but still. Just want you to know that your creative effort did not go unnoticed....

I was in the mortgage business at that time. You would not believe the idiotic decisions I saw smart, financially educated people make. But I take your point.

True, but my irrelevant to the discussion. You probably knew that, though.

I guess I should have just read the headline instead of the whole post. Sorry.

York referenced it just today, actually.

You guys need to pick a take. You get mad about publicly funded stadiums and you also get mad at owners who privately finance stadiums (rams in la). At any rate, Davis is the least wealthy owner in the nfl and can’t afford his own stadium like the rams dude. Im guessing you know this. I’m guessing you also know that…

In California, you have to take one semester of economics to graduate. It would be too easy to stick a block of personal finance in there.

Exactly. The arc of the sports universe, so to speak, bends toward standardization. But in baseball, fans don’t even give a first thought, much less a second, to the difference between Cincinnati being a “bandbox” and SF being a pitcher’s park and the resulting impact on player performance. We don’t get up in arms and…

It’s also charmingly anachronistic that the dimensions of literally every MLB park are different, but that seems to bother exactly no one.

I thought it was because of paddle shifting technology? I mean, if F1 drivers are using it, why am I bothering with an old school clutch? What am I missing here....

Aargh, I meant when *they* get mad at *you.*

Ah. Yeah, I figured I must be missing something....thx.

Yep. I had the same issue with my exwife. She would say yes to things she didn’t want to say yes to and then get mad about it later on. I get that passive people have difficulty expressing their wants and needs, but if you don’t feel OK about something, you can’t tell your partner the opposite of what you’re feeling…
