I admit, I didn’t read the article. I only came to look at pictures of whatever the fuck that thing is.

Having been to the last few of these dinners, my one takeaway is just how bad the food is. This year the Steak Tartare was unbelievably stringy and chewy. The year before the Tenderloin Strips were so tough you could barely cut them with your knife.

There isn’t a list of board members on their website, but there is a ‘List of Permanently Illegible Members’: https://usagym.org/pages/aboutus/pages/permanently_ineligible_members.html

USAG: Are you sure you want all of our resignations?

Doesn’t seem fair. Some of those board members probably haven’t even gotten the chance to be grossly negligent of monstrous crimes yet.

Doug must be an American Dad fan.

You know, it takes a special kind of person to be able to create a player character that’s more akin to Joseph (John) Merrick than Brad Pitt AND carry on playing as them.

To my semi-hipster HGTV loving Texas friends and families under, maybe, 32 years old, Waco Texas is seen as a trendy mecca and the siege barely registers in their consciousness. Koresh is still the only thing I can think of when they talk about the place.

I’m old enough to remember the Olympics of the late 70's and 80's. Truth be told, we were outclassed by the old Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc in many sports, gymnastics in particular. The thing is we’d roll our eyes at it and rationalize it by saying, “Well our amateurs are just that, normal people living normal lives…

I think somehow this is all going to get way more gross and horrible before it’s all over.

Random sidenote: I was in New Orleans last week and stopped by the Museum of Death where this t-shirt (left) was on display. It was donated by a guitarist (not David Thibodeau) that answered an ad and momentarily played for David Koresh’s band. You can’t take a photo in the Museum but this is a photo I found of a…

Funny, it’s older farts like me that frequently bemoan the state of air travel because we can remember how much better it used to be before the deregulation era started. Mind you, though the actual flights are much worse than for example my trips to Hawaii on Wardair back in the 80's, it’s the demeaning “security…

I declare his shot....BROKE-NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

Agreed. The only thing worse than his form is his utterly defeated body language after he shoots. This dude is messed up in the head.

His shot was designed by Theo Huxtable’s Gordon Gartrell shirt

RPDR has penetrated straight culture (with consent). I was pleasantly surprised at a Drag Race reference in last night’s Flash, even.

That’s the infuriating thing about these abuses and others like it: everyone knows. Everyone. I played competitive basketball as a teenager, and there was a coach of another program in the state who was eventually convicted of 50+ counts of sexual assault, statutory rape, etc., and then hanged himself in prison. For…

“I have high expectations and high standards and I am passionate about coaching our gymnasts to realize their full potential.”

As a former competitive gymnast in the state of Michigan this does not surprise me one bit. Geddert was known to be terrible to his gymnasts, and even being a competitor in the same arena I knew and saw from a young age that he was someone who was prone to yelling at his gymnasts, throwing things, etc. I remember my…
