A “Sorry; Bad Day At Work” Wednesday Open Thread

Boy, do I need weekend liquor something fierce.

Free agency: not much to report or follow after today. But:

  • In an attempt to prove Bleacher Report correct, the Browns released Karlos Dansby and Dwayne Bowe.
  • Chris Long chose the darkness over the light, and signed with the Patriots.
  • Casey Hayward left the Packers to go jackin’ it in San Diego

https://youtu.be/0t_56ck18g8

Politics:

  • Rubio is out; his delegates are free to follow whomever. As my grandpappy might’ve said if he wasn’t so Canadian, “Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya!”
    • I didn’t realize until last night he’s also not running for re-election as Senator. Oof; that’s a terrible sound chamber he lived in.
  • Kasich won Ohio, strengthening his bona fides as a VP pick.
  • I got the feeling Hillary wanted to tell Bernie in her speech, “Okay Grandpa, that’s enough. Go home.” But she was too busy trying to get people to forget her AIDS/Reagan snafu to be bothered starting another war.
  • On the same day Trump says he won’t debate in SLC on FOX next Monday, he openly postulates about riots in Cleveland if the GOP establishment tries to force a brokered convention. It would have been the 13th debate, but they stopped being fun once his main punching bags dropped out. With pequeno Marco gone, he figured, ‘why bother?’

The games that aren’t lames! (All times eastern)

NCAA: Play-in day #2

  • Holy Cross vs Southern – 6:40
  • Tulsa vs Michigan – 9:10 (or 30 minutes after the end of the first game)

I enjoyed TruTV’s twitter feed making fun of the people making fun of their network. SENTIENCE!

NHL: (6 games total)

  • Flyers @ Blackhawks – 8:00
  • Rangers @ Ducks – 10:30

NBA: (9 games total)

  • Thunder @ Celtics – 7:00
  • Mavs @ Cavs – 7:00
  • Clippers @ Rockets – 9:30
  • Knicks @ Warriors – 10:30

Remember, ONE MORE SLEEP!

British actors are uglier than sin and it’s not fair they get to act opposite women like this. http://gfycat.com/ShyImpassionedGossamerwingedbutterfly

Love the whole “Falling Down” theme of this one.

Fuhrer Drumpf or Cruz would have these guys immediately arrested for “anti-American activities” without realizing they’d been disbanded for years.

Apparently the ostomy pouching system is a Danish invention. I am actually pretty stunned that wasn’t invented by a German.

Ugh, I have to come up with a power point presentation/speech for a Conference I’m speaking at this Saturday. It’s such a pain in the ass. Not because it’s entirely hard, but because I’m only doing this stupid conference to pad my CV. That’s the only thing I get out of it. So I’m not exactly motivated to write my speech or create a power point.

PowerPoint; put LOTS of text in very small font on every slide. Read these slides verbatim during presentation. Make sure it last over two hours.

Wakezilla

I debated doing this. Either way, it’ll be a little bit of a train wreck because I’ll have no time to rehearse or practice.

I am out for the night. I think I will try to get a solid 6 hours of sleep after being awake for 2 days… You will probably see me later

10 days until the Flash/Supergirl crossover!

Supergirl is getting better, which is nice. It’s nowhere near as good as the Flash, but I like it more than Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow.

Iceland only has 320,000 people in the whole place.

Entities in the US that are larger than that include the UAW, the University of Phoenix, and Wichita.

Impromptu night out (SPRING BREAK MUTHAFUCKAS) began as the idea of going to the mall down the street for a couple of things, that became a possible trip to Dave & Buster’s across town (HALF-PRICED WEDNESDAYS COCKSTAINS), became a dinner with friends, and NCAA Tournament watching/paying games/beers at D&B. Not a bad NCAA Tournament Thursday Eve.

What’d I miss?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Not a goddamned thing other than the usual stupidity.
You made the right choice.

I know the Hawks failure brings many people joy on here. And they are bringing that failure nightly. What do you think the odds are as they end up as a wildcard?

litre_cola

Went to Ice Stamps v Ice Blue Bombers tonight, left after 2 periods as the beer served is shit and the ice football was excruciatingly boring. Pity the Mrs bought me the tix in Oct when the game could have had merit.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Well played Seamus, well played.

That is why she has a rock on her finger and will take my last name in October!

I have been slacking and not hitting the “This is great”‘s again. If you made a witty or even half assed comment assume I hit the button while doing this

That is what I am wearing as pajamas so a really close representation.

Sill Bimmons

So today we learned two things:

1. There definitely is no god. No god would allow Bill Simmons the amount of good fortune he’s already had PLUS today’s play-in result.

:(] Southern is the worst program in the history of the NCAA tournament. Holy Cross was set to be the worst, with their stunning 5-13 conference record and 13-point loss to Lafayette. But no, Southern had to go and fuck everything up.

So congratulations, Southern.

You’re the Jaguras of the NCAA.

With all due respect….
The Wolpfack[sic] are the Jaguras of the NCAA.

The defense has nothing further, your honor.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I always thought that “First in Flight” slogan made it sound like North Carolinans were the first to run away at times of trouble.

theeWeeBabySeamus

They’ve changed it to “First in Freedom”…which to me makes no fucking sense.
But….North Carolina.
What’re ya gonna do?

Sill Bimmons

Don’t flatter yourselves.

You’re like the Trent Dilfer of The NCAA.

One fluke championship a long time ago preceded and followed by infinite mediocrity.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I wish we could aspire to that currently.

But for the record, that “fluke” championship (and admittedly, it could be viewed that way….sometimes I do myself FWIW), was preceded by decades of making the ACC our bitch.

74 was no fluke. 73 wouldn’t have been either if we hadn’t been on proby for a bullshit MINOR violation (David Thompson played a pickup game on campus…an asst coach happened to play in it a few minutes…seriously, post season ban for that).

Don’t believe the ESPN hype….UNC/Duke have not always been the Tobacco Road darlings they are now. Dean Smiff can rot in hell, dirty fucking cunt.

theeWeeBabySeamus

OH WAIT…I got a better one….
Fluke championship followed by mediocrity? Are talking about NCSU Basketball or Pitt Football?
Shit….now I’m even more derpresseded[sic].

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hehehehe…

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Holy Cross won? Woo hoo! Twisted Teas and Marlboro Reds for everyone!

Don T

I think Simmons remarked smoking Marlboro Lights, which are only out-douched by Benson & Hedges Gold.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly
Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

WTF. I couldn’t even read it. The masked it in UPforwhateverROXX clothing. Just anger seeing it presented that way.

Don T

I know, I know. But you can never pass up a chance to shit talk cigarette smokers’ brand preferences. Even unionized lepers get more chances to explore scab humor in comparison.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

Parliament Lights are the doucheist cigs by far. I get a pass because I smoked Full flavor not Lights

Don T

I could never get that pressed-on filter thing in Parliaments. Oh yeah, this will really keep the emphysema at bay.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

It actually does the opposite, allows you to power smoke a cig on a 2 minute break in the middle of lunch hour at your shitty job

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

Lunch rush* would be a better descriptor

Don T

Yeah, sometimes you just gotta smoke ’em and let the wind take are of the ash.
