Your “Money Is Burnin’ A Hole In Your Pocket” Saturday Evening Open Thread

I hope you are enjoying your weekend. If we can get through it without WWIII starting, I think that’ll be the true victory. And that’s talk I haven’t used since Reagan unveiled the SDI.

Took the doggies to a Bernese Mountain Dog get-together at a lake east of town today.

  

I think they had fun.

Oh – feel free to keep Justin Trudeau if he’s in your country. His idiot finance minister actually contemplated taxing employee discounts against income, before massive public outcry turned them against the idea. Why, they almost wiped out the teenaged workforce in one fell swoop while taking away any incentive to work in the service industry. All Trump’s doing is ending subsidies on health care his voting base depends upon.

Your move, Mexico. Let’s bring NAFTA home!

New England @ NY Jets Ian Eagle, Dan Fouts
Miami @ Atlanta Greg Gumbel, Trent Green
Cleveland @ Houston Andrew Catalon, James Lofton
NO GAME due to local team at home on FOX

This might be the first time in a while that a Pats-Jets game actually, kinda, sorta matters this late into a season.

 

CBS LATE


 Anchorage AK  |   Fairbanks AK
 Honolulu HI

Pittsburgh @ Kansas City Jim Nantz, Tony Romo
LA Chargers @ Oakland Kevin Harlan, Rich Gannon
NO GAME due to local team at home on FOX

Go home teams!

Get past the Packers – Vikings game, and there’s a whole lot of garbage. Maybe Detroit-New Orleans could be passable. The Rams-Jags looks like mayo left out in the sun.

Looking good Utes.

SonOfSpam

USC losing is the greatest thing this side of USC losing big.

Unsurprised

If the subsidy cut holds, I’m fucked. Anyway, I’m feeling crappy for some reason. Maybe it’s because I haven’t left the apartment in two days.

SonOfSpam

Sorry to hear that. That’s some evil shit (obvs). I’d say go take a walk and get some air, but I hate when people tell me how to deal with being depressed, so do what you gotta do.

Unsurprised

I’m trying to will myself to go take a walk while dinner cooks.

SonOfSpam

Walk to the liquor store…win-win.

Unsurprised

I’m supposed to go across town and hang out and watch movies in a few hours. Eh…

SonOfSpam

Holy shit, I wanna get a kickstarter together for alcohol.

Dude, go hang out with people. You need that right now.

Doktor Zymm

Buy cheap travel insurance and go live in Ecuador

Doktor Zymm

I’m not kidding, it’s very affordable, and it’s not even that hard to get permanent residency. If I hadn’t gotten a new job (which will hopefully not suck) it was my escape plan

Col. Duke LaCross

You know what to do.

Mrs Cola was bored so she made an apple pie. How is this woman a dietician?? I am not complaining it smells amazing in here.

ballsofsteelandfury

So…. you gonna eat her pie???

As soon as the damn baby goes to bed. Seriously it is go time….

I wish I still had that gif I made.

Shogun Marcus

It would be rude not to eat her pie.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Which I assume is not only hot, but also moist.

SonOfSpam

But hopefully not flaky.

litre_cola

No, she makes it real smooth. When you put ice cream on it just melts in to the folds.

SonOfSpam

Do they not have Archer in Canadia?

litre_cola

Netflix perhaps.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

The Pie Channel. π

theeWeeBabySeamus

I can’t express how happy it makes me that SOS finished that quote. I left it unfinished on purpose hoping someone would.

You have restored my faith in humanity at least temporarily, Sir.

SonOfSpam

Hey, we all gotta do our part.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

When some things happen it is best to let what happens next to follow its natural course.

Spur

I like pie!

Bruins run defense leaves something to be desired.

4 plays, 4 runs, 75 yards, touchdown.

ballsofsteelandfury

Bruins DEFENSE. Period.

SonOfSpam

And now Molson just missed a FG.

Good thing he’s related to the beer Molsons (true story) or I’d be pissed.

Why in old-timey crime photos did they feel the need to point? Like guy is hanging from a bridge, still there. There’s don knotts pointing to him.

SonOfSpam

I really enjoy this random take, but then I am on beer #2.

Shogun Marcus

I’m watching the Lore podcast anthology on Amazon. Made me think of it.

SonOfSpam

Worthwhile?

Shogun Marcus

We’re two in. 1st was meh. This one’s better. Narrator is still kinda annoying in his delivery like the podcast.

SonOfSpam

You are bad at images and should feel bad.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I have the feeling that CBS is really going to regret broadcasting that Patriots-Jets game to so much of the nation. I know it “matters” but I expect the Patriots to have a 40 point cushion by halftime.

Senor Weaselo

Halftime is generous. I’m expecting that by the end of the first drive. Somehow.

blaxabbath

Jets lose their starting qb (Petty or McCown, whichever it is) and have to play their backup (McCown or Petty, whichever is QB2).

SonOfSpam

Uh, the Jets get Matt Forte back tomorrow. GUESS AGAIN.

Spur

Getting to see the USC Song Girls in 4K might be worth the investment. When is ESPN going to broadcast in 4K?

blaxabbath

When do TVs get cheap again? I need to buy one for my room.

SonOfSpam

Little more than a month from Black Friday (no offense)

But they’re dirt cheap all the time.

blaxabbath

I just don’t want to get ripped.

Fuck it – I’ll just order one on Amazon now.

SonOfSpam

Evening all. Waiting for the big* Bruins/Wildcats kickoff.

*maybe in Tucson and my living room

ballsofsteelandfury

Pac 12 Network?

Yessir, starting at 6.

She is so hot.

And that was the funniest storyline.

Looks like a dude, but maybe it’s Chaz Bono.

Unsurprised

Who?

Gratliff

Flyers are still on their Jekyll and Hyde bullshit I see.

Senor Weaselo

Evening lizard people. I don’t have copious alcohol or it would be copious drinking time, sad chuh.
/And how are the Rangers now LOSING 2-1 to the Ice Generals?

blaxabbath

Ice Yanks?

Senor Weaselo

Preferred nomenclature is Ice Giants, but even the Dirt Giants are having fuck-all luck even when they do a good. Which they admittedly haven’t done much of these last two days.

blaxabbath

Does Yeah Right have a good soup on here?

SonOfSpam

He makes a mean manchowder.

blaxabbath

The career path of a football coach is intriguing to me.

litre_cola

Then you just end up in Miami doing blow.

Senor Weaselo

Well he did say it’s intriguing.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

No response yet from my Dodger fan buddy to whom I sent Bob Seger’s “We’ve Got Tonight” in honor of their injury situation.

blaxabbath

His cellblock is probably in lockdown.

blaxabbath

I like Darnold. Arizona should get him.

ballsofsteelandfury

Do the Wildcats have a good Special Ed program?

blaxabbath

I mean the Cards.

UA football is bad. It’ll be a sad and scary day when that school goes to a Rose Bowl.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Tina may….but Becky definitely does.

theeWeeBabySeamus

That was funnier when the link was showing before the vid embedded.

Ooooh, not sure how I feel about these huge-logo Ute helmets.

This Nissan commercial really breaks the truck advertising mold.

I just bought a shitload of soup at trader Joe’s.

You’re old enough now to use the appliances, man.

yes, I know how to use a microwave.

All right, this Justice League trailer looks dumb. Good to know!

It’s not blowing my skirts up, either. Seems rather flat.

litre_cola

Why are you wearing multiple skirts?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hehehehehe.
This is very funny to me. Yes I am totes fucked up.
/packs another bowl

LemonJello

Oh, is that not how you all wear skirts in Canadia?

Unsurprised

It’s as if the DC movies are all trash and the genre is fucked-out.

blaxabbath

So the wife is out of town and I need to do something about dinner. I can order or do some low level cooking (but I’d have to shop probably).

Bonus if I can come up with something the dogs can enjoy with me.

theeWeeBabySeamus

You got a Streets of NY on your side of town? Ordered in from/went to several on the east side and all were always consistently good. Not great by a four star scale, but better than most delivery. With doggie friendly options (no sauce, etc).

Close second would be a tie b/w Barro’s and Nello’s. Though I think Nello’s used to be only east side.

blaxabbath

There is a streets of ny. I think I had it once. Think the wings were good.

Never heard of the other two but there are some good pizza opts around here.

theeWeeBabySeamus

My lab used to love a calzone with only beef, sometimes sausage (but not often) and cheese, no sauce. Shithead went crazy for that stuff.

Shit, now I’m hungry.

Come on soup!!!!!!!!!!

blaxabbath

I got a bunch of homemade bone broth. I should make soup.

Problem solved:

Speaking of money burning a hole in my pocket, off to the craps table shortly…

Never figured out craps dude.

Gonna go see Ashy Larry and Leonard Washington, eh?

blaxabbath

Ashy Larry. So funny.

An interesting thing about sponsoring a NASCAR driver is that the other sponsors names show up on your commercial when he makes his appearance (I just saw a commercial for Bass Pro Shop)

litre_cola

Will this be the week I win in HRTN fantasy?

No, no it will not.

blaxabbath

So many fucking uncompetitive/inconsequential games this week.

Just run the ESPN simulator and save the men’s bodies the damage.

Bama looks they could reach 100 on Bert.

Shogun Marcus

Heh…Minnesotas getting the finger. Heh.

Miami/Atlanta. Jeebus.

At least I get to listen to Trent Green as he waxes inane.

blaxabbath

NE/JETS is the national AM game?

Fuck you, east coast middle class. I’m glad the southerners instilled Trump to just fuck with you all.

(Not too pleased with a lot of the residual Trump behavior, however.)

Unsurprised

That’s Trump’s base, actually. Northerners without a college degree making $50,000+ a year.

blaxabbath

God — then it’s all even more deserved then.

blaxabbath

Making OVER $50k a year really makes me reconsider my approach to marketing.

blaxabbath

Local News is covering AP coming to ARI. You can so tell how they know just nothing about this team or that individual player.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Yay foar Beerbongreggie’s dogs.

Let’s kick some ass UGa ‘Dawgs.

Go dogs I guess….is the main bulletpoint here.

Dear Ohio State,

Fuck you.
