Your “I Feel The Beat Tonight” Saturday Evening Open thread

There’s actually a very good chance I’m delivering Greek food tonight. I’ll let you know if I serve the hookers again.

Also, I saw Black Panther on Friday afternoon. I highly recommend it. A great stand-alone film. Everyone talks about it being an empowering film for African-Americans; what most reviews minimize it that it’s also an empowering film for women. There are few links to the greater universe – well, not as overt as the ones they usually hammer home. It’s safe for the kids, if you don’t want to pay for a sitter.

Caps are bad, folks.

Doktor Zymm

So you’re saying we won’t be seeing them choke in the playoffs this year?

theeWeeBabySeamus

You’re both bad people, just like WCS.
And also correct.

Gratliff

The metro division is a tire fire. They will be sacrificed in the first round for our amusement.

I am 4-0 playing pool tonight. Home field advantage in full effect.

Also, no one I know, including me, is any good at pool. One of my shots sent the cue ball off the table and into the chess set,

Related: I am 2 and 1 in chess tonight.

theeWeeBabySeamus

So your big white balls knocked over a queen and as a result you had a 2 on 1.

What????? That what I heard him say!!!!!!

ballsofsteelandfury
Horatio Cornblower

Chess is the internet. I straight up got wiped out by one guy, clobbered another, and am fairly certain I was well on my way to getting checkmated until the other player lost their internet connection,

theeWeeBabySeamus

That kinda sounds like what I already said.

Horatio Cornblower

You shut up.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Dad? Is that you?

“lost their internet connection”

Once again, skeleton athletes are certifiably insane.

That’s nothing any of us didn’t do when we were younger. If they want to impress me they need to send a couple of 45+ year olds down the track.

Ron Howard voiceover: It was neither creamy, nor chicken.

Fronkenshteen

Why do guys get thrown out of faceoffs?

Wakezilla

Cheating. Their stick position wasn’t where it was supposed to be, or, they jumped the gun and moved before the puck was dropped, thus causing their feet to be not set.

Wakezilla

Like everything, the refs let the players get away with murder with cheating on the draw, and now that is has become a farce, they’re trying to reel it in.

Usually it’s cause they are trying to crack the code to steal the Declaration of Independence.

Watching men’s giant slalom. An Austrian is winning, which seems cliche.

LemonJello

Those fences/barricades look like they increase injuries instead of preventing them.

Yeah, didn’t help the one guy’s ACL.

Thank you Penn Quakers. Andy would be mad but you beat Cornell and did it by enough pointz.

I bet I’d be good at bobsled because it involves some of my favorite activities: 1) sitting down 2) cuddling with three of my best friends.

……later ya’ll!

He’s not the only one.

What about Kisses?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Yes, I laughed.

WVU attempted 2 FTs. Like in the whole game.
But sure, the officiating wasn’t crooked or anything.

Time for a round of “Which President Are They Talking About?”:

It was a warmish day in early October, and [he] was in his shirt sleeves when he stepped on the platform. I observed that, although awkward, he was not in the least embarrassed. He began in a slow and hesitating manner, but without any mistakes of language, dates, or facts. It was evident that he had mastered his subject, that he knew what he was going to say, and that he knew he was right.

Spoiler
-Horace White, about Abraham Lincoln

Spanky Datass

“Nailed it!” — John Wilkes Booth

“Dawwwww,, I was hoping it was me.”

Big news this week about nefarious behind the scenes dealings, tampering, cheating, and a flawed but oddly charismatic leader/villain’s fall from grace. Talking of course about Billy Mitchell.
