Thank Cthulhu it’s the weekend. I lost Friday to the older dog being sick. (Not the one who sampled my vodka slurpee Thursday night; he’s fine.) Woke up in the morning to equal parts barf & shit on the disposable IKEA carpets we put out so the puppy wouldn’t wreck the new floors. It was just easier to toss ’em & pay $20 for new ones than try to clean them up. FUCK YOU, PLANET EARF!! It turns out she has giardia, so it’s going to be a weekend spent trying to bag a firehose of shit.
So, I had a choice to make. I could go to Roger Waters tonight & look after the dog tomorrow while my lovely wife had her appointments, or I could go to Seattle for the Hawks-Texans game & skip Roger Waters to look after the dog.
I chose the last touring member of Pink Floyd.
I will regret nothing.

There’s no way this can be true given how it’s nothing but a collection of derivates of mostly-shitty movies.
We still have one in LA!

Oooooh….bonus swap meet.
They’ve got one out in Montclair, too…

Yes!! One in Paramount too!
There’s one still going about 40 minutes from where I live:

The fact that Walmart uses a song by The Who in their ad makes my skin crawl. Jesus, Pete, do you need the money that bad?
I’m angry enough to drive my car into a hotel pool.
I’m not angry enough, but I’m probably drunk enough.
I’m not angry enough or drunk enough but I do have a shitty car and I’m sort of bored, so….
That child porn is not buying itself.
Yeah, I bet ol’ Pete thought we’d all have forgotten about that by now
Maybe…maybe if it was just the once.
Gotta pay those barristers for the paedo porn charg…I mean “research.”
I have a friend who I love dearly who loves Townsend and defends him to the death on those charges and if I ever punch that friend in the end that’s going to be the reason why.
Well, at least you know a lawyer who can get you off.
Looks like they almost had to shoot a horse in Norman
It’s Elway’s own fault. That’s why the front office hires scouts.

I don’t think Bukowski was a misogynist, but he could have been if he wanted to, that was how shit went back then.
Also starring Harry Dean Stanton. I think I actually saw this at the drive-in when it was new.
America died when the drive ins went away.
Any movie theater’s a drive-in if you’re a shitty enough driver.
Lord help me, I actually know where that is.
Statesville, NC.
I need a(nother) drink.
Children 4-11 only pay 50¢ to see Cockfighter
Don’t forget about Student Teachers!
This is more true than anyone knows.
They restored and re-opened the Mission Drive-In in south San Antonio, but it’s a fucking art house kind of project and there will be no driving-in and parking to watch any movies.
https://therivardreport.com/historic-mission-drive-thru-hopeful-attempt-bring-city-san-antonio-together/
WTF is the fucking point then?!?
Fuck if I know, apparently they converted the parking area into lawn and families can bring blankets and lawn chairs and sit outside in the heat and bugs to watch the movies they’re going to show. Kinda puts a damper on fucking your girlfriend in the back seat, though.
That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. Brick is right. This country started dying when the drive-ins went away.
I remember the last days of drive ins when they showed porno movies that could be seen a mile away.
Yeah, but standard def. You can’t make out vagina that far away in standard def.
Or so I’m told.
We had a five screen drive in just around the corner from us. After my dad retired from the USAF, he took to getting high with a vengeance, and some nights after partaking he would suggest we drive down and park on the street to watch the fuck scenes. I was like, “Dad, we can watch that shit on the VCR.” He would retort that it was better when it was free.
Well, he did have a point…
I’d like to buy an SUV with one of those giant dropdown DVD screens for the kids, and drive around in heavy traffic with the back window open and the fuck movies playing.
So it’s a drive-in you can’t drive into?
Found it!

actually, never mind, no idea why that isnt’ working
Posting gifs via phone always is shit.
Well, no-hitter through 5-2/3rds, but not through 5-3/3rds.
Somewhere Don Larsen smiles.
Is that a Choo Choo train?
So, I have no furniture, and that includes no TVs or TV like devices until next Saturday. My choices for tomorrow’s watching of football include
a) illegal streaming on the laptop
b) dive bar with various TVs until my cash runs out
c) legal streaming that I pay for
d) something else that’ll probably involve driving drunk which I would prefer to avoid
E) Bring a bottle of your preferred liquor to Starbucks
I have no idea how that will help with football watching, but Starbucks is always a great place to pee even if you aren’t a customer!
You can always use their wifi for your illegalness of streaming. Tracks covered.
The answer is always dive bar.
Pro Tip: Hit an ATM tonight and then again tomorrow to ensure those pesky daily withdrawal limits don’t get in the way of your drinking.
My daily withdrawal limit is set by myself at $400, and it’s $4 per well drink, so….damn, I feel humbled by your expectations of my drank. I will do my best.
They don’t open till 10 am though, so I’ll miss the London game. Oh, woe is me!
It’s not a true dive bar in California unless it opens at the earliest legally allowable hour: 6 AM.
There are only like 3 bars in Fremont, and this is the only one within walking distance. I’ll take what I can get and I’ll smile and say thank you.
How far away is the Centerville Lounge (aka Back Door Lounge) from you?
There is always Uber…
2.2 miles says Google. Though I think I’ll be good with the combo of box wine and adjacent dive bar
Good, solid win for Iowa. Minny always plays them tough.
Ohio State at home next week.
Why has no one killed Chevy guy yet?
TRUE WCS FACT: Old Man WCS has driven nothing but Chevys since the late 1970s. He told me last year “that Chevy asshole on TV” is so infuriating, he’d, “consider buying a Ford or Toyota.”
At some point they need to stop running the contact play against the Astros because the ball always ends up going to Bregman.
Like that?
Exactly.
I’ve never been a good socialist, but aren’t opiates the opiates of the people?

Someone needs to find the Pablo Sandoval gif where he swings so hard his belt breaks.
“HALLO MOTO” commercials make me want to throw one of the babies into the television.
Almost as bad as the Verizon hipster douche.
I want to dismember that guy.
Choose the new one. She’s lighter and you’re less committed emotionally to that one.
😉
Plus you wont throw your back out.
Also, if the wife asks….blame the cat.
I’ll blame the dog. She’s older, and far more expensive than the cats.
Is cancer bad? That’s good to know. Thank you, baseball, for that slathering dose of diabetes causing treacle. I feel cleansed and righteous.
But were you standing? It only counts if you were standing.
All the cancer patients weren’t standing I bet.
They hate ‘Murrica.
Lotsa good defensin’ in Norman, eh?
I just flipped to it. Saw the score thinking it must be getting close to being over. Nope.
Must admit the Flying Dutchman thread still has me laughing.
Damn it…thanks to my back killing me, I fell asleep during the Ohio State – Pedophiles game. Not only did I miss Pedophile State losing, my sleep schedule is now FUBAR…
I used to be awesome at staying up late and sleeping in. Not so much for the past two years. I suspect I will never adapt to west coast time and will be falling asleep before 10 for the rest of my life.
It took me ten years in Los Angeles to get used to football games starting at 10:00 AM. Also, MNF starts while everyone is still at work.
If only the brunch crowd was the same as the football crowd.
Good. Let this subtle resentment flow through you. You’ll hate everything about the #EastCoastBias soon enough.
On the plus side, you now live in the best coast
Tonight I finished season three of You’re the Worst and I needed to drink afterward because it made me sad. 🙁
Yeah…that ending was rough.
So accordingly, if it made you happy you would not be drinking?
Oh so you think you’re clever?
Well joke’s on you, all emotional paths lead to beer. Smarty pants.
Just wait til s4. It stays the course more or less, so far.
I did like Burt, tho.
So in the span of 30 minutes I went from potentially hanging out and drinking and playing board games with people to one of them feeling sickish and the other having things to do to get ready for tomorrow. One of these people is my de facto ex, and the other I choked on my words trying to ask her out a week or so ago and seriously need to get a move on now that her grad school recordings are done. But as I said yesterday, I am the goddamn Flying Dutchman of Halloween.
On an unrelated note, fuck the Dirt Oilers.
Moments like this make me appreciate my delightfully drama-free married life.
I’m just confused about what running a poorly stocked seafood buffet restaurant has to do with any of it.
That part’s not dramatic, it’s more background. But it is Halloweekend, and I am stuck doing fuck-all because I had to teach until 6:30 and my skull hurts, and then I have to teach one student in the morning and have to play a concert for the Saturday school that I have to play tomorrow and actually look fucking presentable.
Understood, probably pretty hard to fake it. Whoever heard of anyone playing the “air violin”?
Go to the village, get drunk, and make bad decisions.
I don’t get the Flying Dutchman reference. In my world, that is either a burger on the In-N-Out secret menu or the ship that can go underwater in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.
FLYING DUTCHMAN: When you are having anal sex in the doggie style position while standing up and you proceed to put your partner in a full nelson and jump forward into a belly flop.
I imagine you only get to do that once with any given partner.
I was watching a random movie from Spain the other day and it featured an attractive woman in a wheelchair. They did a flashback to explain how she got into that wheelchair and it turned out to be something VERY close to what Brick said.
I was about to go the sexual reference route, you clearly are faster on the keyboard. I type like a Marine, search for it then land on it.
If my frequently fucking upstairs neighbor’s sex acts move into this territory, I’m taking it to the condo board.
Reminds me of the couple that lived above me while I was going to school. Their combined weight easily eclipsed 500 pounds and they liked to brag about their new waterbed. What I assumed was sex tended to be loud and frequent.
All apartments had the same floor plan, I usually slept on the living room couch for safety’s sake.
I have a second bedroom but it’s unfurnished. I plan to put a bed in there but knowing my luck they’ll switch it up and fuck directly over me anyway.
(It was the ship reference. Namely the part that she may only dock on land once every seven years.)
I am very drunk and waiting for Roger Waters to start playing.
Every time he finishes a song, you should loudly holler “Play ‘Several Species Of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict’!!”

Tech-Oklahoma on pace for 140 points
Getting a lot of impaired boating commercials on the beisbol. Seems the station is unaware it is winter up here.
Unless they are trying to keep people from wrecking their shit on a frozen Lake Superior.
That explains all the Gordon Lightfoot commercials.
Obscure, yet sublime.
I didn’t believe it at first, but the EF is longer than the depth of the water where it sank. If only it sank vertically and wedged in perpendicular to the floor.
I know the feeling. I once was at the beach and got caught in a riptide, had to swim my ass off to get to the shore. I was getting pretty tired so I treaded water to take a break, only to find I was swimming in three feet of water.
I walked back to shore and didn’t say shit to anyone.
I like the ad with all the old Chevy trucks, because I like old Chevy trucks.
This ain’t bad. Cash only and a load of old people. $4 well drinks. It’ll do, yes, it’ll do.
Sounds like Nogales around 4pm on a Thursday.
Probably not enough Mexicans though.
If any.
Dive bars are fantastic aren’t they?
A load of old people, or old loaded people?
My favorite conspiracy theory, fueled entirely by a solitary youtube or pornhub or something comment is that Patton Oswalt killed his wife and is some kind of disturbed serial killer-esque figure who gets off on all the sympathy and is planning to do the same to his daughter. WHO WILL STOP THIS MONSTER?
This seems like the perfect place for this gif.
Can we lose all this “I hate everything” crap? Thanks.
We’d also allow a Falcon Punch photoshop.
That’s absurd. I ran into Patton one time at the bar at the Providence restaurant and the only person he killed was some no-name busboy. He certainly didn’t want sympathy; he was actually quite embarrassed to have been seen doing it at all.
Live NFL footballing finishing before noon goes against every form of natural human behavior.
Tell you what London, next time you host another American-rules football game, schedule it for like really late at night so’s we yanks can watch it at a more acceptable time here in the colonies. Do that, and the next time the rednecks in Massachusetts re-enact the Battle of Bunker Hill we’ll let the Redcoats win one. Deal?
No way! I love early football. Especially when it’s a comedy game involving the Browns.
Maybe, but I’ve never cared for Bloody Marys and even I can’t bring myself to drink real booze before noon.
Remember, I’m a Cowboy’s fan, watching football sober is never a good idea. I guess mimosas are in order, orange juice helps prevent scurvy!
The 1PM ET games start at 7AM in Honolulu. I doubt if anyone there will be getting up to catch the 330AM start of the London game tomorrow.
Of course, if you live there, you can watch the games and then spend the afternoon at the beach.
Yeah, been to Hawaii a few times and watched games at ridiculous hours. The plan is to retire there in a few years, I’m very grateful for the latest DVR technology.
So…Martellus Bennett is retiring
But his brother is the Black Panther, so who cares?

College basketball started already I see, judging by this UCF-Austin Peay tilt with a score of 73-23 .
Oooh the spread was 52

Happy to hear that you managed to escape his neon claws.

I always forget what the official cut-off height is for little people. I saw a guy walking down the street who couldn’t have been taller than 4’6″-8″, but he was proportional and so not a dwarf by definition, but I don’t know if he qualifies as a midget.
On a somewhat related note, I had the saddest thought wondering if there are any porn podcasts like there are movie or TV podcasts; like if AVN has one about the business.
What department of government or the United Nations would be the one to establish that height? Weights and Measures?
I feel like whoever it is, they have to be referred to as a “guild”.

Wait, why is Cowboys/Redacteds the best rivalry in the NFL, Fox?
Because for a long time it really was.
It blows my mind when I remember that the Cowboys were (and to an extent, are) the more progressive team.
I don’t know what you mean by “progressive” but the Cowboys have never been that. They were innovative, but always owned by pure evil, from Murchison to Jones. The [redacteds] of that evil piece of shit Snyder are not the same R_edskins of Jack Kent Cooke and Joe Gibbs.
I think the Cowboys hired black players before Jack Kent Cooke did. In fact, I think every team in the NFL and AFL did so. So there’s that.
No, that was when George Preston Marshall owned the Skins. Cooke is after that. Also, that bar might have been a crab house on Wisconsin Avenue that’s gone now.
It’s those guys with the triple-barreled names that I get confused.
Could have been a crab place; all my fuzzy memory is telling me is that it was called The Goal Post.
My dad worked at the Naval Security Agency on Nebraska Ave before transferring out to the NSA at Fort Meade.
Naval Communications was by NBC and American University, which was right down the street from Wisconsin Avenue and Broadcast Hill, where the Skins bar was. Same place you remember, I believe.
Glad to have my memory somewhat validated. Thanks!
In the mid-late 60s, my dad was stationed in DC. He used to go to a bar where the Redacteds hung out, took me in there on occasion (Sonny Jurgensen used to make me sandwiches one summer when he had a broken wrist and worked behind the bar for extra cash since those guys didn’t get paid shit back then and he had a MB450SL to pay for). Those guys inculcated in me a hatred of the Cowboys that is still with me 50 years later. So its definitely a long-running thing.
My hatred of the [*Redacted] s is actually how I became a Raiders fan. The year was 1983…
I posed the same inquiry in the previous thread.
Well it’s been going on, if a little one-sided, for about 400 years now.

Didn’t you play Cowboys and Indians when you were a kid?
Come on Samuel L. Jackson, just drop a “motherfucker” in this voiceover. We know you want to.
Why when the moon is fully lit up do we call it full? But when it’s half lit up we call it a quarter (first quarter or last quarter).
This inconsistency bugs me enough to eventually punch an astronomer, allegedly.

I don’t know what it is, just some teams I can’t bring myself to hate, no matter how deserving. It’s mostly due to their ability to consistently challenge the teams I truly dislike.
OSU is one such team. Just something about the combined douchiness of the rest of the big ten, keeps them all else from ever being consistently hated
Kinda the same way I feel about alabama. I’m so busy rooting against Florida and lsu, something has to give.
I imagine it’s the same feeling about the Seahawks. Their insincere cockiness doesn’t have shit on green bay and new England, and I’ll never not hate the colts for as long as I live.
The Big Ten is a shit conference filled with teams from shit states and full of shit people.
But this also applies to the entire NCAA.
The one thing I hate about Alabama is how irrelevant they’ve made the overall appeal of college footed balls. They’re essentially an NFL team playing at the collegiate level.
Also it is a reminder that the state of Alabama exists.
I generally don’t hate OSU too much because some of my work colleagues went there and they aren’t assholes. Alabama is a little more problematic for me since it just seems like such a benighted place.
I understand and have empathy with people who hate the Patriots. I’ve been a fan of the team since the late 1960s when I was a kid, and always hated the teams that were doing well—Cowboys and Steelers in the 70s, 49ers and Raiders in the 80s, Cowboys again and Denver in the 90s. So while I’ve been basking in the glory of the last 15 years, I know how the haters feel. I also know it won’t last forever, a fact which I try to make my Massachusetts nephews who are in their 20s and have never known anything but success aware of. The sun only shines on a given dog’s ass for a given amount of time before moving on, and it’s only a matter of time before the next 2-14 season.
Can that 2-14 be in 2018?
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves her.! But it COULD be!
Hopefully the same season that Tom Brady dies.
Paedo State lost, so that is good.
Definitely eases the blow of some of the other disappointments of the afternoon.
Gonna go stagger down the street for some good brisket. Fuck it, I’m hopelessly fat as it is.
Sooooo, you got a destination in mind? Or you just planning on wandering around looking for brisket random like?
I picture a zombie walk, while he’s saying “Brisskkettttt” instead of brains.
For all we know, “looking for brisket” might even be a euphemism.
I hope he remembered the prophylacto’s.
But enough about Andy Reid’s Halloween costume.
watching the end of Vandy/South Cakalaky b/c I hate myself that much I guess
Watching beginning of Duke/VT for similar reasons.
Spent the last 2.5 hours at the wine bar; now that I am on the outside of a bottle of cab I think I’ll head to the house for WS and A&M game. It was fun watching OSU pull that one out of their ass.
Wine drunk is classy drunk.
Yeah, but now that I’m home, I’m going to start punishing the rum. Don’t have to hold my pinky finger up and say “It has a fruity nose and goes well with the lighter meats, such as spam and bologna” when I’m quartered safe at the house..
The rum knows what it did.
Not pouring your wine into an empty beer can for better splash control? When did you join Al qaeda?
I think I’ll head to my kinda stabby looking local bar in a strip mall tonight, after I finish this popcorn. If you don’t see me in the liveblogs tomorrow, I’ve been eaten by Californian rednecks.
