Super Tuesday is next week. As a Canadian, I expect all of you Americans to get out and vote multiple times, so John Scott and Kobe Bryant can emerge as the nominees, because I assume the party nomination system runs akin to All Star voting.
Well, nothing new on the Peyton front (today). Thank god. Luckily, on NFL Network, your home of unbiased, accurate coverage, it’s Combine! COMBINE!! COMBINE!11!1 Plus, “A Football Life” with Terrell Davis, and “Top 10 Draft Steals”. Really, it’s appointment television. Peyton who? #OhLookOverThere
Wanna feel old? With details announced Monday, there’s apparently a “Ferris Fest” in Chicago the weekend of May 20-22, to mark the 30th anniversary of the movie. They’re planning a tour of all the sites featured in the movie, a Q&A with his movie parents – who married in real life after the film! – and finishing with a “Twist & Shout” parade re-creation. Three-day passes are available for $300.
Looking at what’s available tonight, here’s the only programming synopsis you need:
“Charlie Catches a Leprechaun” is the eighth episode of the eleventh season of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
Dennis tries to create an innovative mobile Paddy’s pub experience but runs into trouble when customers refuse to cooperate, while Charlie and Mac attempt to catch a thieving leprechaun.
The games of interest: (all times eastern)
NHL:
- Montreal – Washington (7:00)
- Pittsburgh – Boston (7:30)
- San Jose – Colorado (10:00)
NBA:
- Timberwolves – Heat (7:30)
- Warriors – Heat (7:30)
- Thunder – Mavericks (8:30)
- Spurs – Kings (10:30)
NCAA:
- #1 Villanova – #5 Xavier (7:00)
- #11 Louisville – Pitt (8:00)
- #7 UNC – NC State (8:00)
- OSU – #3 Oklahoma (9:00)
- Wisconsin – #8 Iowa (9:00)
I hope every NC State fan has a sign asking Roy Williams how that Duke loss tasted. ONWARD & UPWARD!
Sometimes I find Amazon’s recommendations weirdly amusing. These are apparently the top three recommendations for me in women’s apparel.

This seems like one of those weird “customers save X when buying all three!” sales.
Amazon fucking hates you.
She should probably ask Alexa why Amazon hates her.
That should go over well.
They probably read your story about the uninvited anal probing.
Whichever one of you magnificent bastards posted that Phosphorescent song a few weeks ago in DFO Radio, well done. You have successfully eaten up at least 3-4 hours of my time replaying that goddamn song.
you’re welcome!

This reminds me of how humans are lucky we’re social animals with intelligence because if not our young would be such easy meat.
Yeah, but the intelligence factor is why our young are such easy meat. Born with the capacity for intelligence cuts back on the instinct to avoid big, scaly objects with sharp teeth THAT HAVE NOT FUCKING EVOLVED FOR EONS.

I don’t remember you posting this one, could have. If so, worth a relookieloo.

I’ve been thinking of creating an unaccredited online university so idiots who want fraudulent degrees to impress other idiots will have to give me money before they go out and make the world a horrible place. What BS things should I give meaningless degrees in? I was thinking ‘Numberlytics’ sounds pretty pseudoscientific.
A BS in Scientology?
I wonder how many Spacestar Ordering degrees I could grant before someone caught on to the joke.

I read that as “whiskey thinking” at first and got kind of excited.
Meteoromancy.
Also, any two-word combination of big words would fleece a fair amount of idiots for at least a BA:
Speculative Abstinence
Theological Indeterminism
Primitive Mathology
And, of course, Typewriter Repair.
I think it would be pretty easy to write simple, picture based multiple choice quizzes for Speculative Abstinence.
I thought the whole point of this was less effort to make money.
There has to be some content, so they feel like they’ve “earned” their degree. And this would probably be pretty fun to make.
Also, I would own their responses and could sell their data, so it’s worth getting something to profile them with.
I feel this should be a post.

You could refer to someone as a recognized scientician.
Oh, and don’t forget to stock the site with recognizable faculty.

No one would know or care about Erin Andrews if that guy hadn’t posted that video of her.
That’s some funky dichromacy there.
I didn’t notice.
2 days and 4 hours before I hop on a plane to Vietnam. I don’t know why everyone in Chicago doesn’t take their vacations at the end of February. Maybe they don’t like dragonfruit as much as I do?

Could be worse. They could all be getting on the plane with you.
Probably because they’re afraid of days like this where 1000+ flights are cancelled.

I’ll bring Mia Kirshner back, too:
The Paget Brewster reading James Joyce randy love letters made everything much better as I turned off the abortion of a basketball contest.

OF COURSE a thunderstorm in February, in Eastern PA, is perfectly normal. Why would you think any differently?
North Cakalaky had tornadoes! I slept right through ’em. Love storm naps.
I will say this: I’d rather the goddamn rain, because this has got to be close to 2″ of rain and that would be a fuckload of snow.
I can’t decide if I want Xavier to beat Villanova, or if I want Villanova riding as high as possible before the tournament so the fall is that much better.
Somebody went to Temple…
I hear they really pack ’em in
Nope. Double whammy of growing up in the Philly area knowing all the Nova jerks, and being a Syracuse alum.
I’ve been awake all day but just in a total fog for whatever reason.
What things have happened in the world today?
Skynet gained sentience, and we’ve only hours to live. Also, our cat had kittens.
MAZEL TOV!!!
Skynet’s not Jewish!
Some of the Trump supporters would beg to differ.
Congrats on the Kittens

Nothing really, and I was refreshing news and sports sites all day out of boredom. I did get drunk by 7:30, but you know the old saying. “It’s always 3pm somewhere”
that’s the nice thing about pills, not really any social stigma about popping whenevs the mood strikes.
/the mood always strikes
Yeah, you can pop a pill all day, but crush one up on your boss’s desk and snort it and everyone gets all pissy.
Let’s not ever do that again.

Nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
This election is testing my commitment to not voting.
My dad who is a Northwestern grad in Mechanical/(Whatever space shit is called I forget for the moment) Engineer and in general a pretty smart guy is now on board with Trump. Like fully in, had at least a 2 hour convo today about how he is wrong. (He is older and is racist and sexist and xenophobic unless it involves bombing them)
This reminds me that Intelligence =/= Education =/= Self-Awareness.
I’d say something, but I’m also a Northwestern grad and an idiot.
I bet even George Carlin would vote against Trump
Is it weird that based on a clip that was posted about a show I referenced, that I watched like 10 clips of it and now will be doing a rewatch of the whole series? It is happening either way
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EY0vMZl8vUY
Both the boys love Heart’s covers of Zeppelin’s tunes but have no use for anything from Paul’s Boutique. My question to you-when do I strangle them in the bathtub? Separately? Together? At night? First thing in the morning? Little help here, commentariat…
I was going to take the high road and say let them mature a little, maybe their taste will improve as the age, but fuck ’em. Pelt the little bastards with truck batteries as they sleep.
The comments around here are definitely showing a severe lack of Perry Farrel:

I have a soft spot in my heart for Richard J Daley, last of the Old Political Machine Monsters, so he’s who I think of when I read that slogan.

Alcohol and family do not mix.
Or, in Indiana, family and gravy don’t mix.
but what if my family is gravy?
Then I assume you all spend most of the time trying to consume each other.
Really? I find the only way I can tolerate all of mine together at once is with copious amounts of alcohol. In smaller groups, I can do sober, but man…. get more than two of them (or ANY number of nieces/nephews) and it’s time to pollute the bloodstream.
Alternate joke: perhaps you need to use something other than family as a mixer.
We’re a special bunch.
All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
You just haven;t had QUITE enough alcohol ,, imo
BRING FORTH THE SIX FOOT OPIATE.
This is always the answer, or you are asking the wrong questions.
One of those mailing lists I’m on sent along a mid-week update and I read it today. Among all the random nonsense in the email, he included a link to an 800-song Spotify 90s playlist, in chronological order. It’s 55 hours long, and separated out into three handy chunks of music.
Jesus wept, I forgot about a lot of this stuff.
Have we ever solved the Imgur image posting problem here? I’m convinced it is a DFO problem, not Imgur or WordPress. I’ve got a ton of stuff on Imgur, and some of it is slightly interesting. Tumblr sucks. I hope this can this get solved; there might be a small reward involved.

Just an hour left of work and then I’ll be free! As much as I enjoy this job, I dream of the sweet release of starting my own business and not having to answer to incompetent people. It’s seriously staggering how terrible my boss is.
I own my own business and trust me, you still have to answer to incompetent people.
They’re called customers.
Gah, that is true. Customers tend to be the most incompetent of all. I work alone in a tiny room and I still have to deal with orders from stupid people I’ve never even met.
I’m the CEO of a California S-Corporation. I’m also the sole stock holder and the janitor.
I’m also the stupidest fucking employee I’ve ever had and I’d fire my lazy ass in a second except that I’ve also won employee of the year every year since the company was founded. It’s all politics. If I wasn’t such an incompetent director of HR I’d somehow figure out a way offshore my job to Vietnam or Bangladesh or some other cheap-ass slave labor shit hole. Then I’d just lean back in my executive chair from Staples and smoke $100 bills and laugh maniacally! Or I might organize myself and call a crippling and violent wildcat strike against my tyrannical management ways. Lot of options here.
Your scab workers are just those times you pick at scabs.
I’m having a very strange day where I’m sufficiently absorbed by my work that I have skipped eating properly and will probably work late.
I’ve got my own business thing going. The best advice I can give you is make it work at all costs because you’ll never be able to work for someone else again once you’ve taken hold of the rudder.
I think I have a decent chance at success. I’ve been quietly buying equipment bit by bit and I’m close to having a fully functional shop. I have two friends involved in the project; one has experience in record keeping/tax work and the other is a pretty top-notch salesperson. I know being successful is nothing but an uphill battle but I see some of the shit my boss does and I’m like there’s NO WAY I can be that bad. Seriously. How do you buy a garment for $5.60 and sell it for $5.50?
As far as supposed “incompetent” folks are concerned, they pay your bills. You can’t afford to label them that way.
That’s true. I do respect him for building this place up from nothing. He just is still living in the 80s and hasn’t quite caught up with the times.
Like Tom Friedman did!

Forget about Trump or Cruz likely getting the GOP nomination and the no-lube fucking the party is going to do to itself as a result.
I’m amazed that Mitch McConnell and the rest of the GOP Senate leadership is so willing to trash their ability to hold the Senate in November. As if they think they’ll really get a GOP President to give them a better nominee next year? Signing that condescending letter, they’ve given campaign fodder to all their vulnerable incumbents’ opponents, and so even on the off chance Trump pulls off the improbable win, he could very well have a Democratic Senate that would do unto him what the GOP did unto Obama.
Seriously, the GOP is making All The Stupid Moves. To what end? In hopes of firing up the conservative base that will be turned off by a Trump candidacy? As if that would counteract the firing-up of the Democratic base that would turn out in droves if the GOP obstructs Obama’s nominee?
Jebus, even Bobby Jindal said the GOP needed to stop being the “Party of Stupid.”
I don’t know, man, every two years I hear the whole “The GOP is completely destroying itself” and yet here we are, with them still in control the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Needing to stop being stupid and actually stopping being stupid are apparently not the same thing.
I went to do a Mia Sara search, this wrongly ended up in the results. I liked it

I need to know what that’s from. For me. So I can masturbate to it.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Circular firing squads are the best firing squads!
“I’m really struck in thinking about what a Donald Trump nomination would actually mean,” GOP strategist Amanda Carpenter said. “I really think it’s the end of the Republican Party.”
She continued, “It’s a natural effect. We’ve watched what’s happened by a lot of people who have wanted to save power so badly they didn’t listen, didn’t listen, didn’t listen to the grassroots. They didn’t listen in 2010, they didn’t listen in 2014 even though we won those midterm elections. Nothing changed.”
“And the voters still want change. They are desperate for somebody who will go in and shake up Washington,” Carpenter concluded.
A tinge of bitterness entered her voice as she reminisced about the Jeb-Rubio dustups, saying, “So many times the party elders were trying to eat and defeat the party’s young, and now we have Donald Trump.”
BUT TEH PARTY YOUNG ARE TEH MOAST DELISHUS

She was mind-asplodingly gorgeous in Legend.
The movie was… not great… but the production design was out of this world, and they picked the right young actress for the role.
I was absolutely in love with her as a kid.
Sadly, she didn’t age as well as you would’ve thought.

She actually looks better in that picture than she did in a “Hey, Remember the 80’s?” VH1 special a decade or so ago.

Not me. I age like fine wine. Meaning I’m encased in glass and kept in a dark basement.
Jane Seymour, Hellen Mirren, Halle Berry, and Alyssa Milano, have all done pretty well despite the years. And until the last decade or so, Racquel Welch looked like she had sold her soul to the devil, too.
