Sunday action features the Euro, Copa America, baseball, and Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final.
On the European front, Turkey plays Croatia, it’s a funtime Ottoman Empire family reunion.
Northern Ireland plays Poland,
Germany plays Ukraine, I’m guessing it will go about as well for the Ukrainians as Operation Barbarossa did for them.
Copa America features Group B’s final game.
Ecuador-Haiti play each other, Haiti is eliminated from advancing further, but Ecuador can with a win and a losing result in the other game.
Brazil plays Peru, if they draw, they both advance, if one wins, the loser will not advance if Ecuador wins.
Penguins can clinch their fourth Stanley Cup tonight, while San Jose will try to force a Game 7. Pens outshot the Sharks almost 2:1 Thursday, but a herculean effort by Jones allowed San Jose to live another day.
Enjoy the day.

What it the best birthday pastry/confection/et&c?
I’ve always wanted a crème brûlée for some reason:

So…. a PP, eh. I’ll just be here chewing all of my nails off my hands. (・_・)
I haven’t seen a Polak giveaway that bad since 1939.
Up***x just got a shoutout on Silicon Valley. WTF?
I knew there was a reason I didn’t like that show
It wasn’t a positive connotation.
Oh. I knew there was a reason I like that show.
FUCK INTELLIGENT COMMENTARY
CONTENT AGGREGATION FTW
“I will send that press release to every tech blog in the fucking country”
“Even Uproxx?”
“Yes even them”
They’re the Zoidberg of tech “blogs,” aren’t they.
HOT TAEK – there is now a 2nd Ice Stiller fan at the bar. The barkeep is a Rangers fan from Jersey who thinks “Mike Emrick is the best announcer in sports.”
Hang your head in shame, Ice Giants supporters.
As an Ice Giants fan, that man is wrong.
Well, he is better than Cris Collinsworth….
So is a hemorrhoid.
Or a door-to-door BIble salesman.
Stupidest. Penalty. Ever.
In response to Brocky’s post below, it took some time to both convince my mom AND my ex-wife…but FUCK birthday cake. It’s awful for you, and neither I nor any of my three spawn really are that wild about, certainly not enough that we cherish it as a special birthday treat. Just let us pick dinner, either out or mom/grandma homemade (or in my case, perhaps an apple pie).
Rebuttal: Chocolate crunchies are the best part of ice cream cake
Ice cream cake…yay.
Regular birthday cake…no so much.
Fudgie’s like half crunchies.
FUDGIE FTW

Another Weaselo yarn: So for my 21st my friends got me a Fudgie the Whale cake, and on it was written “Happy Birthday Dickbag.” Apparently the guy at Carvel had to double-check with my friend if that was really what he said and what this person receiving the cake’s age was.
The one time I wanted to do a naughty Fudgie they wouldn’t do it for me, so I had to go to the grocery store to buy a tube of white icing to write it myself.
Yeah…icing.
See…I knew that sounded wrong…
I also think ice cream cake is the exception, but my dad is allergic to eggs so that is all we could have at our house growing up. They changed the recipe for the crunchies in the cake in the last few years to add egg to them, so we still get them he just has to eat around them now
SCOARCHING HOAT CAEK TAEK
With teh gin comes teh random nonsensical anger. WOO!!!
/prays for no OT
I’ll give you $10 bucks if you kiss a total stranger.
$25 if it’s a guy.
Preach! Cake is a waste of perfectly good eggs, butter, and milk.
We need to cool his hot take cake with a fresh Island song!
I prefer to go with one of these from my favorite pie shop. It’s a swirl of key lime and orange & cream and it’s fucking ridiculously good.

I rewatched the movie recently…it does not hold up well at all on multiple viewings in my opinion.
What is it?
Fear and Loathing…
How did I completely miss that whole damn scene?
I disagree with you, but, have and will fight for your ability to type it.
Reading the book just makes one appreciate the film MOAR. Was made lovingly and cast PERFECTLY.
I’ve read the book and agree with you that the casting for the film is nigh perfect.
Its just my least favorite HST book.
The soundtrack is also near perfect.
Honestly…I love Thompson’s writing. That said, he was never meant to be taken as an authentic and trustworthy narrator.
I find the movie just kinds of comes off as hammy. Its so gratuitously over the top that its distracting. Hunter always played up his drug and alcohol abuse and it eventually turned him into a parody of himself.
Vegas isn’t my favorite but it’s far from his worst work. He hit a serious stall in the late 70’s and his writing went to shit for some time.
Do the Rio games still happen?

I can’t imagine they would cancel them, or even move them, unless things get significantly worse.
We will just have some special sad piano music pieces for Bob Costas to shake his own tiny head about some Forrest Gump babies.

It will be amazing to see which event goes down as the worst clusterfuck due to shear greed and stupidity…the Qatar World Cup or the Rio Summer Games.
I got to go with the World Cup…just because its a “bigger” event in my mind. Even screwing over every other football event of the year…we are still going to see the world’s best athletes competitively heat stroking.
Oh and the “numbers” coming out about workers deaths are so fucking laughably low.
Yes.
I did a small 10 month job in the UAE…I saw more fucking dead bodies than I did six years in the military.
Yay! A slow-mo Burnsy asscheck!
Can’t decide if this is a hockey reference or a shot at Warming Glow.

Kunitz with the game on his stick…
Holee Phuck….How’d the Pens manage to not cash that one in?
I coulda scored there…and I can’t even really ice skate.
Fuck yeah, Jonesy!

So due to social convenience, finally got around to having birthday cake this evening, where this conversation happened:
“Brocky, why are the cakes you order always some combination of red, black, and white? Black lettering on red frosting, black balloons, do you just not like other colors?”
“I don’t know, maybe if you guys weren’t so lazy that I had to order my own damn cake, we’d get a larger variety of colors, I’ll order a cake shaped like a crayola box next time”
U NOE WHO ELSE LOVED RED BALCK AND WHITE
13-15 year old emo kids? Or is that black and purple?
Brocky, I got you a cake! You like it right?
It’s not red black and white though…
JUST PUT IT IN THE HOLE!
Phrasing?
Sweetie, you don’t have to yell. With traffic, it might take me an hour though…
I is the only ninja in this KFC sadness pile in a failure bowl bar paying one quarter of a shit to this ice footbaw contest.
None of the teevee boxes are turned to lesser footy. I would ask, but they probably think I’m queer enough already, , smh
WTF bar did you end up in?
The Reel and something. Inside the hotel. Fuck if I’m taking the car out the parking deck.
If he is Cary, what does it matter? They all suck.
in Cary, gawddammit, in Cary
And now a bit showing all the Broadway actors in Law and Order!
That was funny, especially the last guy.

Should be Conn Smythe if it ends tonight.
Well that tie didn’t last long.
It didn’t last long, but it lasted long enough to raise my hopes and then shatter it into a million little pieces. Fickle, fickle emotions.
Wow. I really wish that weren’t so accurate.
SHARKBAIT OOH HA HA!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmPDoNrGWng
I’d jump into Mt WannaHokkaLoogi. I’d totally do it.
MORE OF THAT PLEASE
please no more of that. please no.
Combined with “Just put it in the hole” I am now chortling with amusement.
I think this mofo ends 2-1
Hello sadness my old friend.
Murray must Haute giving that goal up to Couture.
/already made that joke once this year, don’t care
Just because it’s a old, bad joke doesn’t mean it isn’t still funny.
Murray might be hitting the wall.
That was a terrible goal to give up.
If you suggest Fleury, I will drive up there and cut YEW!!!
/please suggest, I wish to leave this hellhole
Nope, it’s ride or die at this point.
The past few periods have not been encouraging tho.
Poor little Papa Hippo.
At the bar, game is on, VERY LOUD trivia night in progress. Due to the absolutely hideous beer selection, I am gin drinking.
CHUH CHUH
YEAAAAHHHH!
http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/shark1.jpg
And the rest of this period will be spent behind the Sharks goal.
Were the shots on goal really 9-4 in the 1st? As someone who hasn’t gotten a chance to watch a ton of most of the games, has it been mostly blocked shots, dump and chase without success, or neutral zone battles?
Blocked shots; lots of ’em.
Blocks and being forced wide.

I wish I could pull off Daveed Diggs’s sleeves. That is your Tonys update.
*pull off wearing them, not pull them off
That Lin-Manuel Miranda acceptance speech tho
Fun fact: He gave my HS graduation speech and I played with my trio earlier in the ceremony, so I can say I’ve been on the same stage as him!
Fun fact 2: The girl who plays Hodel in Fiddler was also in my year, we keep in the most casual of social media contact in response to things that (mostly she’s) doing, and one of these days I should seriously see if we can do lunch and talk about musical things.
Probably should have added
/Douchebaggy name drops
That’s a good yarn. Mucho enjoyable.
The officiating has been shocking and appalling.

Señor Weaselo told me the NBA Finals are tomorrow.
Both sides. It’s really incredible how they can get just about everything wrong.
Rust skating so fast he makes time look like a flat circle.

YOUR SHRILL NASAL WHINE AND STUPID COLLOQUIALISMS WILL NOT RUIN THIS FOR ME “DOC”
Refs blow a call, destroying San Jose’s momentum? We probably won’t hear anything about it after the commercial.
as well we shouldn’t. Ruining the moment would be rude.
Instead we got to see Pierre ask inane questions to Sharks coach. Guess what? They need to play harder, win battles, and deflect questions about injuries.
Is it weird that I’d prefer to watch the Stanley Cup Final on telemundo?
Listen to it online.

I could just go walk by the ocean, but even with the sun down it’s blast furnace hot (but with humidity). I have no clue why this is considered the “high season” at the beach in the South. It’s misery.
That’s why I went when I did and will go back in September.
Not to mention all the fucking people in “high season”. And you know how much I love people.
The very odd tattoos and the cellulose. I guess it raises the self-esteem marginally?
Early-mid October is my sweet spot.
In what scientists are calling “pretty gay,” Pitt up 1-0 on pp goal.
/deletes folder of XKCD “references” that have been DFO’d
No, keep them coming, because everyone loves xkcd. Or at least us and Dok.
These fucking kids and muthaflippin Ice Stillers owe me for suffering through this wretched stream.

What kind of shit cable system do you have that doesn’t carry FS1?
Beach hotel.
My NBC is all static too. The other 50ish channels work fine and dandy.
Seinfeld reruns?
SEINFELD RERUNS!!!!!!!!!!!
I am gonna miss most of the game tonight. I hope the Penguins evening goes like the guy on the right here
