I feel like there’s gonna be a lot of yelling at clouds in this comment thread.

As one who has been The Dad of the more Modern Vacation, what you just described doesn’t sound that fucking bad at all.

Never mind the ‘highlight’ reel - the shot for the post is simply .... terrifying.  When you look at that shot of Jones, you can see the haunted look of man who knows, despite any efforts or struggles he might make, is doomed.

Sexual harassment against a subordinate? Has subordinates again?

I’m gonna guess the questions are heavily scrutinized for their ironic placement..... a question about being called ‘fat’ versus any euphemism, followed by a pizza roll question whose answer was essentially “while waiting for the food that kills you suddenly, eat MORE food that kills you suddenly!!”

I’d pay a LOT more money than I’d care to admit, to see video of that scenario.

Wait - Arizona Bay?  Aren’t they an indoor soccer franchise, in SOME iteration of a league?

I think mine might not be as bad, then. It doesn’t keep me from actually hearing stuff, nor does it keep me awake at night or anything. And often I don’t really notice it, until I think about it, if that makes sense. It seems louder at night, I will say.

Mine isn’t from infections, but just being 53, having played the drums, and also the bad habit of cranking songs I REALLY like up far too loud in the car.  Sounds like either cicadas or the buzzing one can hear on certain high-voltage wires.

That seems incorrect, unless it’s the liver that gets fucked with. I took it for roughly eight months before, during, and a little after my chemo, and it was specifically to protect my kidneys.  Chemo does a LOT of cell-killin’, and it tends not to discriminate.  All that cell death dumps a lot of toxins into your

This is an underrated comment.

That was his “I’m upset” look?? Sorry, I mistook that for a “farting from $1 taco night” look.

“Vaccine transparency advocates”??  That’s an awfully fancy book-larnin’ way of saying “Dogpile of fucking morons”.....

Sounds legit. Isn’t some variation of that what we’re *all* thinking??

I’ll wear that.

Okay, for starters, I wouldn’t say *bad* jokes. Two, please send me your address, because I want to send you more pearls for your birthday and/or Christmas, as you’re wearing yours out. Three, when you willingly import killing machines from another continent, and keep them around, it’s not a matter of IF you become

Unclutch your pearls, Martha. It wasn’t a very SMART man, clearly. Yes, he lived to be 75, but that was probably mostly by accident.

From Wikipedia: “Cassowaries feed mainly on fruit, although all species are truly omnivorous and will take a range of other plant food, including shoots and grass seeds, in addition to fungi, invertebrates, and small vertebrates”

I’m a VT grad, so I’ll fully admit I’d be biased. But I don’t follow the ins and outs of our program that closely, so other than a FB blurb, this is the first I’ve heard of this. Even without that emotional investment, I CAN offer the following opinion:

Thing is, they’re not quoting the other part of the NHL Rulebook: “Rule 0.0: The referee(s), either alone or in conjunction with the linesmen, shall officiate in as ragged and inconsistent manner as possible during the regular season. During post-season play, said officials shall add “blind-eye” to that enforcement.
