You forgot that Bible Jesus (BJ? yeah, definitely BJ) hung out with sinners, eating dinner with thieves and whores and was castigated for it. He also made it a huge point that these were also his people, and should not be excluded.

Personally, this is why I watch YouTube recordings of the streams. I’ll watch for half an hour while lying in bed (with headphones, so Mrs. Footbaw!! doesn’t divorce me). It can take weeks to get through a full game, but I treat it like any other show, and kind of see a game as a “season.”

I’m intrigued by the number of “I’m 3X years old, so I don’t get this” posts. I’m 34 years old and I do enjoy watching streams. I got into it about a year ago with Awesome Games Done Quick, and have quickly figured out people who I like to watch.

Something about watching Inside the NFL for a couple of years and seeing how much Collinsworth would piss off Simms made me like Collinsworth a lot more.

I pole vaulted in high school and played Top Gun on the NES as a kid. I have to say, you are 100% wrong on the pole vault/aircraft carrier question. I’ve cleared 10' dozens of teams, and still can’t land that damn plane on the aircraft carrier at the end of the first level. And that’s simplified!

So, I get that this article is about people who just run the whole race without signing up. What about people who jump in for a couple miles to support a friend?

Counterpoint:

For fun? Or am I misunderstanding the concept of games?

You need to have a lot of money to pull off “unmolested” in Georgia, especially when it’s left sitting alone for a while.

Ah, gotcha. I definitely get where you’re coming from. I was focusing more on the initial article’s point, and mistook your original comment as being dismissive of the impact on the restaurant as a whole.

What does any of that have to do with not cancelling a reservation you’re not going to make? If it’s a restaurant that does the whole setup thing, they probably get very few walk ins. And either way, not cancelling your reservation won’t reduce the hours without a table, as they’re holding it for you.

Too bad Alaska Airlines is based out of Seattle. Not the first time we’ve convinced the world that we’re the last stop on the way to Alaska. It’s how Nordstrom became a company.

How does that help the restaurant that you’re still sticking with an empty table? And don’t give me the “stick it to the corporations” BS. Most restaurants can barely make ends meet. Raising minimum wage doesn’t change the fact that you’re being an ass if you don’t cancel your reservation.

The issue isn’t going on the plane. It’s going during boarding. At least in the States, the boarding process is ridiculously congested, especially on smaller planes with only one aisle. Someone trying to swim upstream to get back to their seat is creating quite a bit of unnecessary havoc. But once in the air and…

It does, as does Schiphol, in Amsterdam. But if you’re not showing up at the airport with only 30 minutes till your flight leaves, you should still have a chance to poop before going in. Those secondary security areas don’t open too long before your flight.

The production values for the new Air Bud movie seem to have dropped, but based on this trailer, I’m still going to have to see it.

But I think it would be better just to pare it down to basic knives you use every day, either for cooking or general handiwork.

Must be nice to just not care about large swaths of the human population. I’m gonna give it a shot by not giving two shits about your opinion.
