There aren’t very many pass interference calls on third down in the CFL.

RE: ice machines in hotels

Agree with this. Definitely an invalid fair catch signal, but also he takes a couple hops backwards, stops for a second or two as the Arkansas players walk towards the sideline, and THEN he starts walking and eventually running downfield. It’s pretty obvious he gave himself up and was making no effort to move forward…

I’ve heard it as “make like a fetus and head out” which can be much, much darker.

I lost to a Royal Flush at a casino table with Aces full of Jacks. Thank fucking goodness it was a limit table, and sadly my great hand was nowhere near great enough to hit the bad beat jackpot.

Just to add to this, the minimum wage in Ontario is $14/hr right now, and is slated to become $15/hr next year unless Doug Ford puts the kibosh on that (which is likely).

It’s definitely Bobby “The Brain” Heenan.

Went to a software conference for work held at the New York Marriott East Side last year. Co-worker and I went down a day early to take in a Yankees game and some other touristy things. We had our own rooms booked for the conference through the software vendor so we booked the extra night ourselves in a double room as…

My mom (probably with a recipe from my dad’s German side of the family) makes a Braunschweiger Ball every year for New Years. Essentially braunschweiger and some finely minced onions, formed into a dome shape, then cream cheese spread over it, and covered with gherkins slices. Try to get a little bit of each layer and…

If you’ve never had braised octopus (OMG, so delicious!) you’re unlikely to order a big plate of it for $30+ so you can miss out on a lot of cool experiences. Can you say fresh marlin…

The J Lohr Pinot Noir is also nice with a steak, and a great value.

I found it in the garbage!

Came here for this. Thank you for not disappointing me.

I’m so genuinely sorry that you’re feeling lonely right now. It can be a very tough time of year for many people, so I hope some measure of warmth comes your way soon, and these low feelings subside.

I came across Chuck Liddell in a travel center McDonald’s once. Like Trump’s hair, his ears looked so much WORSE in person.

Throwing the ball short of the endzone is wholly within the team’s control also.

Cataclysmic storm, huh? Love the handle ;-)

Yes, but in very heavy traffic, the guy behind you would now be first, guaranteeing him to go at least on the yellow light next time. Getting stuck behind you again might mean waiting for several lights if you’re that passive.
