Things like this is why I would pay money to have crowd noise edited out of baseball radio broadcasts so I could just hear the players and the announcers.

Schwab’s 401k management also allows you to set automatic increases.

This so much. There are flavors of beer other than “all hops all the time.” There are a couple of local breweries near me that make great light ales and lagers so I make the point to buy the shit out of those to show my support.

At this point, I’ll watch anything with Coogler’s touch until he produces something awful. And then I’ll watch the effort after that before my faith in him as a filmmaker starts waning.

So he’s in the Derby, right? Soto is also my new pick to hit a dinger out of the stadium.

Any time Aldi has French rose in stock, I’ll buy at least 4 bottles as the stuff is really good and half the price of any other French rose out there.

I was somehow guilted into buying tickets for a Thanksgiving game between the Ravens and Steelers. I lived within walking distance of the stadium so parking wasn’t an issue (except that I had to plan my schedule around the Ravens’ games because otherwise I’d have no place to park if I moved my car after 9am on a…

The only way it could have been better is if the sheriff’s deputy had met the Cheeto in Chief on the tarmac at Andrews.

100% correct. Systems that can’t handle unexpected situations without driver input should not be on the road.

Co-signed. There are plenty of non-chain places that do loaded fries well. They’re excellent drunk/high food and are something akin to comfort food to me.

Gotcha. I might have caught the reference had I seen it after I started my morning coffee, but that might be giving me too much credit.

Nah. Needs to be a full scale sack of Rome or Great Fire at this point

Theoretically. But I bet she wanted to ensure he wasn’t back around the house too quickly, unlike last year ;)

His wife probably paid someone off to seed him with a bye into the 2nd round this year.

Plausible.

The only way that airing any of this out in public is a good* idea is if it netted her enough $$$ for top notch therapy for her, her daughter, and the rest of the family.

100% accurate. My company just keeps a rotating stable of leased trucks for our construction inspectors. Fixed monthly cost that can be billed directly to the client, no worries about maintenance or having trucks out of commission, and we have the vehicles we want with the specs we need. Of course that’s just the…

I don’t think it’s the families who are money hungry, but the lawyer who drafted the complaint.

Honestly, at the heart of this is some scumbag lawyer who saw a way to make a quick (legal, if morally reprehensible) buck by capitalizing on someone’s pain.

This is the kind of argument a certain subset of my friends would have. I’m a little surprised this isn’t from one of them.
