who wants to see the same thing three years in a row like nah mate

Honestly, is this news? I guess Katy’s confirmation is, but beyond being slightly more explicit in contract negotiations this isn’t something I didn’t know. 

hahaha unfortunately no, electrical engineer and double bass

lol, is your friend me? i’ve given up on fixing it. i’m pretty good at keeping it out of my vocabulary when needed but otherwise... lost cause.

Bad Blood is so bad. At least this song has a nice beat.

I’m sure someone has already said this, but iirc at least some of Chicago’s problem was the owners refusal to broadcast the games? Obviously they would still have sucked, but if you can’t watch the team on a local network, it’s hard to drive up interest

At most hockey games I’ve gone to, the men’s bathroom line has been longer than the women’s line. Which, given how often the opposite is true, I don’t think is that unfair. The men’s line still moves faster than the women’s. (disclaimer that I’m a woman I guess)

Haha yes, I have. I guess the trade-off with drive thru is that you have to get out of your car, but it’s so easy.

Airlines know whether you’ve checked in to the flight. I think they can tell if you’ve gone through security, as your ticket is scanned there. They can use those records to tell who is present to board.

If I used public transit I could deal with a much longer commute. I do not and it is not an option for my current workplace.

Yeah, I could definitely put up with a longer commute via public transit. I’m just incapable of focusing on driving for very long in the mornings. My current commute also has very little traffic which is a plus.

Drive-thru windows at panera make no sense to me. It is kind of fast food but it takes so long sometimes. The best thing is being able to order ahead.

Is Panera fast food?

I mean, that’s roughly 4 pints of beer, but like, two beers? I dunno 2 beers, 4 beers, whatever.

Oooh I did not see that yesterday, I’ll check the deadspin post.

That Ronaldo thing is a couple weeks old now, isn’t it? Or has new information come about... I saw a notification from my ESPN FC App (I think), and read the article, but never saw anything else. I was surprised Deadspin didn’t have anything up about it at the time.

They had a full season of McDavid and made the playoffs. Please.

don’t pretend that’s what his comment meant. like fuck off with that shit.

True. I think even that level of talent is a bit of a crap shoot though. I guess I should have just said NHL-level, not elite. I don’t disagree that they didn’t do well drafting those sort of pieces, I’m just not sure it’s easy.

To be fair, after roughly the 2nd round, any player developing into an elite player (say, Jamie Benn for an extreme example), is statistically unlikely and drafting those players has an element of luck. Or I guess some seriously good scouting, but... (though I really don’t know who the heck the oilers were drafting…
