Well done, that man.

That was my suggestion re: the Hall of Fame. I don’t think it would be a circle jerk... Just a chance to relive some quality jokes like All Takes Matter (genius stroke by whoever coined that one) and an opportunity to needle the Best Fans in Baseball all over again..

The very first photo is Oxford fucking Circus... Which is some way from the Emirates. What in hell?

They do this in the Burren in Ireland, too...as well as pick the impossibly rare alpine plants that will die and wither before they get back to the car, leave litter and henerally act like dickholes. Oh, and I caught a bunch of Italian tourists scratching their names into the Giant’s Causeway once. People fucking…

Bleed Cubbie Blue would probably get 500,000 views a day if Yellon hadn’t banned 90% of the population of Chicago

Cool. I can watch some live baseball before college. It’s 7am in Ireland.

The Irish government is actually refusing to collect the back tax from Apple, despite the EU’s instructions. Meanwhile we have people dying on trolleys in overwhelmed hospitals and a full-blown homelessness crisis. And the fascist bastards running the country are trying to squeeze in a middle-class tax cut.

Just got back to Ireland from another visit to Chicago where I, too, put on weight but also was received with nothing but warmth, curiosity and kindness by Chicagoans. I even managed to bike around the city without losing any teeth. So, basically, fuck that jagoff.

Rich, this may be my mind playing tricks but I’m nearly certain adult Bev says “I fucked all of you!” in the book. Its gone through editions, do that may have changed. And FWIW I thought that scene was creepy as fuck when I read IT at the age of 13... My opinion has not changed.

Slightly OT and a genuine question, but what the hell is it with you guys and this USMNT/USWNT stuff? What’s wrong with calling them USA and letting folk work out from the context that they weren’t playing Honduras at Hockey? We don’t say “ROIMNT got their arses handed to them by Serbia” to describe what happened to…

I’m a white Irish person who just visited Memphis. We spent most of a day at the Civil Rights Museum, an incredibly powerful place to visit (my partner has been to Auschwitz and considers the Civil Rights museum to be close to the same level of gut-punch) so I totally agree with putting the statues in there. In fact,…

Apropos of nothing, I’d saved up three deadcasts to listen to on the Greyhound from Nashville to Memphis yesterday and they kept me safe from having to talk to a slackjawed WWE CHUD on his way to see RAW. So thanks for that. Even Marchman’s awful eclipse takes were better than that.

Can you do some sort of FOIA request to find out how many times Trump aides have googled “Dry Golf Courses Near Houston” in the last 24 hours?

Terry Pratchett used to have a semi-regular running gag about clowns in the Discworld novels that is perhaps best summed up by the line “if it was funny, clowns wouldn’t be doing it”. Screw them.

Ha!

I am shocked, shocked I tell you, that the arms are falling off pitchers managed by Dusty.

One of my favourite Funk memories is him taking a chokeslam from the ‘Taker to buy a knocked-doolally Foley some time in that Hell in a Cell.

Blake Bortles is an anagram of Bleak Lobster. This means nothing and everything.

Fair Use case law is genuinely interesting and ever evolving, going all the way back to Warhol’s Campbell’s cans. Precedent is still being set because it takes a judge to rule on Fair Use and generally the Davids can’t afford to take on the Goliaths (thinking of corporate logos/copyrights rather than this case).

Glorious. Coming next: Javy steals home, moonwalking down the base path.
