Your “It’s Tuesday. Whoop-De-Facking-Do!” Tuesday Night Open Thread

“Fury” isn’t that good a movie. I have some Canadian “Premium” channels so I’ve been able to watch the last 45 minutes and then immediately watch the movie from the beginning. Shitty movies use “rhyming techniques” over and over and over again. It’s a tried-and-true method that creates emotional resonance in the viewer. Where was I? Answer: Way off course.

NBA-wise, BOS/ATL and MEM/SA are the games to eyeball.

In the league that is so much more exciting, TB/DET, PIT/NYR, ANA/NASH and STL/CHI are on tap and on ice.

In other news, JJ Watt worked out today and is pretending to be not-dying to tell you about it. And now…LET YOUR FINGERS DO THE WALKING!

In the early 00s, the NHL videogame series had a feature called Hero mode. Essentially, if the computer was trailing near the end of the game, they’d become damn near invincible and score weird goals and ultimately win. It was annoying as shit because you couldn’t do anything about it.

The Hawks looks like they’re in hero mode that past 3 minutes.

With that said, go Ice #BFIB (God Bless)!

As I tried to lead this whole thing off, it seems to me that worse things could happen to you than that you send this kid a card in the face of the infinitesimally possible scenario that this microcephaly-skull-expansion ruse exists only for this kid’s grandmother to aggrandize herself through the disgusting exploitation of both her grandson and the horribly disabled:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/world-reacts-after-no-one-shows-up-at-9-year-olds-birthday-party_us_57166fb1e4b0018f9cbb425f

“I’m going to vent right now. My grandson who is in second grade and has had at least 5 skull expansion surgeries, is slower then the other kids in his class. However, he is the kindest, most compassionate kid I know. His mother sent 30 invitations to his class. 12 said they were coming. At, 3 o’clock he made sure his goodie bags were ready for his friends, he was dressed and ready to party. At 5:00 p.m. he was still sitting there not wanting to cut his cake because one person might show up. When my daughter called the 12 parents to find out what was going on. Here is their response. My child can’t play with yours he is just to different. How sad he is 9 he just wants to have friends. So no one came, no cards, no presents. So, it is my mission to have as many cards as I can mailed to my little guy. You can send them to me and I’ll make sure he gets them….this breaks my heart.

Just send the fucking kid a card.

If his grandmother is sick enough to aggrandize herself through inventing an extraordinarily rare brain disease for her grandchild to get him a few extra birthday cards then I guess the fault lies with us for being so fucking credulous.

Or you could just ignore the cynics, shrug, say to yourself “man, it must suck being so mistrustful”, and get on with your life.

Sill Bimmons

The kid’s classmates are still going to hate him and they’re going to hate him even more now. “It gets better.” Yeah, fucking right it does. The world is a mean and cruel place and the sooner this and every other kid learns that the sooner the weaker among them break and accept their future lives as slaves.

Padres’ pitcher was called for a balk, scoring McCutcheon. The umps then gather, decide it wasn’t a balk, McCutcheon returns to third, Hurdle comes out to challenge, is told it can’t be. Hurdle returns to dugout, watches replay, calls timeout, argues again with umps, they discuss it, rule it was a bulk, McCutcheon scores again. SD’s manager comes out to talk it over, gets tossed.

It’s even weirder than this reads.

Been a rough couplea days for me. I got denied the raise I’ve been after for over a year on Friday, with the only reason being that I arrive at 8am and leave at 5pm despite getting all my work done, which is flimsy at best. THANKS EMPLOYER! Not that I’m bitter or anything.

Good weekend though. Got to see yeah right, drink lots of good beer and spend time with good folks.

Just before I left work today, my number 1 job prospect emailed me that they’re no longer considering me. While driving home, blasting some Rage Against the Machine and venting my obvious frustration, my phone rang and I ignored it. Looks like it was my NUMBER 2 prospect trying to call me. I guess I didn’t catch him in time, so with a follow up voice mail and a LinkedIn invite accept, I am tuning shit out for the rest of the night and playing Metal Gear and watching old Venture Bros. Also beer.

Low Commander of the Super Soldiers

He’s well. He’s been in communication with them regarding the study as he had some questions about the whole thing, but it sounds like it was heading in the right direction towards that.

I have nothing to gain through your acceptance of her treatment of your father:

https://neurosciences.ucsd.edu/faculty/Pages/irene-litvan.aspx

Unsurprised

I will give Hillary Clinton credit for some things because I’m not a complete asshole. First and foremost, people hated her in 1992 and hate her still because she’s a woman. It’s as simple as that. What I hate, and what no Democrat wants to acknowledge, is that the Republicans spent Bill’s eight years in office acting as though his entire administration was illegitimate for many, many reasons. They’ve done the same with Obama’s two terms. And they sure as fuck are going to do it to her with a vitriol that makes their enmity towards Obama pale in comparison. It is impossible to understate how few women there even were in national politics in 1992. There are more than ten times as many female Senators and several times more Representatives in office than there were then. Reality aside that Nancy Reagan was running the White House at the end, First Ladies and politician’s wives were there for the sole purpose of being seen and not heard. And for as misogynistic as the GOP is now, it was even moreso then and had the public more on its side then. The fact that she was a lawyer, the rainmaker partner at her firm even, was evidence of her being a traitor to her gender. She had the temerity to have an opinion and desire to influence the President, her husband, on policy issues and the shitstorm that produced was massive. How dare this un-elected woman have a voice (Let’s completely disregard to thousands of un-elected men shape policy for, with, and at time contrary to their President on a daily basis. This one has a vagina!). She was a bitch. She was a lesbian. She was a murderer. She was an attack dog. Think of the meanest thing you’ve ever seen or heard a woman attacked for being and she’s been hit by it. I will never forget the NRA cartoon where Bill is saying he didn’t have to worry about the assault weapons ban because he had his own, and it was Hillary with her hand around some guy’s throat and stopping on another and it was just the laziest, most obvious shit.

One could say that, it’s been a quarter century and she’s running as a former Senator and former Secretary of State. Let it go. The problem is that a lot of those assholes who were attacking her then are still around and attacking her, and in many cases have more power than they did then. So of course she’s going to be in a perpetual bunker mentality.

Her failing ultimately comes down to the same one Obama had about being a black man. They are so desperate to be loved than they cannot take a firm stance and really impose their will on their policies and against their opponents because they see it as succumbing to the very attacks they’ve been subjected to their entire professional lives as a woman or African-American respectively. But here’s the thing: IT DOESN’T MATTER. They’re going to lose that fight every time, but at least if they stood on principle they could overcome the attack. Instead, they let it continue because they don’t want to address it directly.

So I guess that’s really my biggest problem. If she isn’t willing to transcend this ground-level combat and stake a clear position from which she is willing to fight with passion and principle, then why not support the guy who actually does stand on some kind of principle no matter how stupid it is?

And that’s why Trump and Sanders have lasted this long.

Doktor Zymm

I sort of have the impression that the main reason Hillary is running this time around is because she’s decided to fall on the grenade of being the first woman president. I think last time she honestly wanted it, but this time, she’s just been taking shit for so long she figured better her than someone who isn’t used to it.

Unsurprised

That seems reasonable. She’s also more keenly aware than most that she’s the best candidate the Democrats have. As a matter of competence in campaigning, political, and governance there isn’t anyone in the party who deserves a shot and would be better at running and winning more than she does.

At the same time, that just makes me hate the party more than ever.

Doktor Zymm

The two-party system is interesting. There are times when it creates a far more effective government than you get with the coalition governments you get in countries with lots of parties, and it does generally limit the influence of extremist elements in national politics. And then other times, all hell breaks loose and everything goes stalemate.

I said it earlier, but I had my first Dogfish Head 60 Minute tonight. Entirely drinkable. I’ll have to have another 90 Minute sometime soon to compare.

To me 90 Minute is far superior.

My wife would be happy with anything over three minutes.

You might be right about the beer, and you might be wrong about the wife. Anything over 30 seconds and she starts to look kind of freaked out.

I don’t like to compare double IPAs to regular IPAs. I enjoy 90 Minute more than 60 Minute in terms of pure taste, but sometimes you want 6% ABV instead of 9%.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

60 is good to wean yourself on IPA, and 90 is an orgasmic hop bomb if you like the style.

And if you want to drink hopped rubbing alcohol 120 minute is for you.
