World Gawne Mad – Friday Evening Opening Round Session Open Thread

Time to get the sads for the cornucopia coming to a close.  Real life beckons soon, unless you have a six-shootin’ pistol and are ready to leave (h/t, Strumbellas):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpWpD8axxzA

#9(S) Kansas State (+1, -105) v. #8(S)Creighton (6:50, TNT)

Hey, you want anonymous?  This match will give you some anonymous.  I think Creigh-Creigh is better coached, and has showed some flashes of upside, so I gives ’em the slightest of edge.

#14(MW) Bucknell (+13.5, +750) v. #3(MW) Michigan State (7:10, CBS)

Ninja, please!

#16(W) Texas Southern (+19, N/A) v. #1(W) Xavier (7:20, TBS)

Mike Davis will find these Jesuits more like his first 13 foes than Wednesday night’s easygoing Central folk.  It will be a good tourney for the Queen City (garbage chili varietal).

#13(MW) College of Charleston (+10, +435) v. #4(MW) Auburn (7:27, truTV)

FUCK YOU, who said you can drop “College of” from your name?  NAWT Hippo.  Auburn is one of those nice “out of nowhere” stories that seems to be coming apart at the end.  Methinks they will sputter through one game, but Clemson will smack them good.  Over-popular upset pick here.

#16(S) Maryland-Baltimore County (+20, N/A) v. #1(S) Virginia (9:20, TNT)

DO NOT BET the dog here.  Wahoowa will be out to make a statement, and we shall see how Retrievers are at fetching they own jocks.

#11(MW) Syracuse (+5, +180) v. #6(MW) TCU (9:40, CBS)

Offer thine blood FOAR the Bloodeyes’ god, because with the Bonnies shitting the bed, it is up to L’Orange to carry on the tradition of at least one play-in piece of flotsam doing some damage.  And ain’t nobody (but Scotchy) got time for that.

#9(W) Florida State v. #8(W) Missouri (+2, +115) (9:50, TBS)

The Seminoles are the only favoured 9-seed, and I agree.  Much is made of Mizzou’s uber-hyped freshman coming back from injury for the tourney…but he still played in the SEC tournament loss to UGA, didn’t he?  Full health and chemistry remain open questions, plus FSU is just better and deeper.  Unless they are having one of their off nights – the reason they fell to such a low seed to begin with.

#12(MW) New Mexico State (+4.5, +170) v. #5(MW) Clemson (9:57, truTV)

Speaking of over-hyped upsets – everybody is aboard the “Clemson flops” train but me.  I see a legitimate Final Four contender.  Not that the Aggies aren’t a dangerous 12 seed – they most definitely are, but rather Clemson is a focused and dogged opponent, who gave UVA a real scare in the ACCT semis.

Apparently Fetty Wap has his own bag of chips. I have no idea why, but apparently he (and others) on the company, so you know what? More power to him.

SonOfSpam

Makes sense. There’s only one i in chips.

I really blew when I didn’t name my daughter Mustafa. It’s a great name, and she’d be respected among her peers.

SonOfSpam

Exactly. She could mean-mug e’eryone, starting with that bitch ass kindergarten teacher.

Just a quick suggestion for tWBS:
When uber-stoned and have a sweet tooth the only outlet is Cinnamon Toast Crunch, AKA breakfast crack…
Also, I’m quite verily displeased at the lack of teh Sexay Friday….I demand a refund good sir!

Game Time Decision

NSWF?
or am i seeing things

/not complaining, asking

Unsurprised

I never noticed anything. I cropped her nipples and the reflection of her nipples pretty damn close, though.

Game Time Decision

after the blown kiss, and her hand moves down, is that not her left nipple? Or am i seeing the blurred out nipple and used to 80’s scrambled porn and see things that aren’t really there.

Unsurprised

Let’s just say the latter. Noble Lie or something. 😉

Unsurprised

Time to change into something comfortable and … continue not doing shit.

theeWeeBabySeamus

She does look like she’d be comfortable to get into.
I like the way yer thinkin’, Mister.

Game Time Decision

damn it, i filled out a bracket for the men’s hoopsball thingy but somehow filled out the wrong one or didn’t add it to the DFO one. So have a bracket but not that anyone but me can see…..fack

theeWeeBabySeamus

I do not see it.
Gimme a sec and I’ll open the back door so you can stick it in.

Wait, let me rephrase that.

Stand by.

theeWeeBabySeamus

OK, unlocked, you should be able to toss it in there.

Game Time Decision

thanks off to try now

GODDAMNED THIS WEED IT’S MAKING ME STUPID(er).

I guess I’ll microwave the fucking potatoes since some high as shit dumbass forgot to turn on the oven.

Holy hell.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Maybe just more aware……..

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hey, at least I remembered the grill was on before I blew the place up.

Unsurprised

The last time I grilled I nearly burned my face off. I created a fireball that my roommate saw from the other side of the house and he thought I was dead when he ran out.

Game Time Decision

the gas grill explosion is good for trimming those bushy eyebrows

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

OH SHIT! BRB.

Unsurprised

At least you can still post. It’s making me feel better/smarter.

Mr. Ayo

How long were you not cooking those potatoes?

theeWeeBabySeamus

About an hour.

Also, fuck you.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Sorry, I should put one o’ deze in there so you know I’m joking.

😛

Mr. Ayo

That’s not necessary asshole.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I got yer necessary asshole right here, Buddy!!!!!!

Unsurprised

I got yer necessary asshole right here!

Oooh, they’re done!

Damned right they did. The day you and me showed up on campus was the best ever happent to ’em.

Oh wait, that’s not what you meant is it?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Leonard Hamilton is judging you.

Mr. Ayo

*checks bracket standings*

Hey Hippo, you sure you don’t want me to take over these preview duties for the sake of accuracy?

theeWeeBabySeamus

NO!!!!!!

theeWeeBabySeamus

I stand to make $750 if this holds up.

theeWeeBabySeamus

No sorry….$650.

Forgive my math. I (am) fucked up.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I’m not terribly.
But….it’s KState so…ya know.

Senor Weaselo

Did anyone post this last night regarding Davidson-Kentucky?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XItRcMuraCI

theeWeeBabySeamus

I had forgotten how much better being high is than….you know, not being high.

Oh fuck, I forgot the grill is going.

theeWeeBabySeamus

YOU LEAVE MY LOVE LIFE OUTTA THIS!!!!!!!!!!

theeWeeBabySeamus

Back in the great state of Washington. Didn’t even come for the holidays (phrasing) this year.

I’ve done my best to convince myself that this is not because of my disappointing “abilities”.

Unsurprised

What’s her address/number?

WCS

30 seconds later….

WCS

4-seed Auburn tied with 13-seed Charleston

FEAR THE 13

WCS

I let Lil’ WCS babble into the phone until whoever it is hangs up.

herodotus450

Landline!? Did I fall asleep in the time machine again?
/I just never answer the phone, for anyone, solves the solicitor problem
//No one calls anyway…

Gratliff

I have the ringer on our land line muted because it’s virtually useless, but it’s literally cheaper to have it than it is to not. I have readable voice mail through Spectrum though and you get some great scams in written form. I’ve gotten this one a few times this past week:

Please call 866-978-5727. Let me repeat this is very important to call to notify you that your Microsoft Windows license key has been expired and your computer. So Microsoft Corporation has stopped the Windows Services in your computer to renew the Windows license key please call 866-978-5727. I will repeat 866-978-5727.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I LOVE fucking with those guys!!!!!!!!

The car warranty fuckers are fun too.

herodotus450

When I am elected dictator for lyfe, it will be law that for every upset in the tournament, someone on the selection committee has to die. If they did their jobs right in the first place and correctly assessed teams, then there would be no upsets, right?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Welllll….I’m a little bit upset by your attitude.
Does that count?

litre_cola

MOAR Points in Cray Cray game plz.

theeWeeBabySeamus

OK, I know I should eat the leftover enchiladas or the leftover chili.
But fuck, I really want fire up the grill and do a steak (or two) with potatoes and corn on the cob.

Wait, do I have corn on the cob?

theeWeeBabySeamus

I DO!!!!!!!

(ok i don’t usually get munchies da fuq up wit dis weed yo?)

WCS

It’s laced with PCP.

My Food Delivery Options:

Lousy Chinese

Two generic Roadhouse places (burgers, wings, etc.)

A chain pizza joint

theeWeeBabySeamus

I just smoked a shitload of weed.
I’d probably cover my bases and go with “Yes”.

Would also walk to the store for Funyuns right now if the store wasn’t so fucking far away.

I HATE LIVING IN THE FUCKING STICKS.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Ooooooh….can of BBQ Pringles I forgot I had.

SCORE!!!!!!!!!!

scotchnaut

“I really think you should re-consider this statement. Why don’t you lie down on a couch, feed us some bread and maybe talk it out?”

-A Couple of Ducks

theeWeeBabySeamus

Dammit, I forgot about the ducks. Now I’m giggling again.

BUT GODDAMMIT I WANT FUNYUNS!!!!!!!

Spur

But it’s Lent. Get the fish & chips.

theeWeeBabySeamus

So how long before KState implodes and makes me look even stupider than usual?

scotchnaut

I don’t like Izzo but I respect him.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Feeding ducks while really, really high is fun.
They had me giggling my ass off.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Since you’re all wondering how my bracket is doing, here’s a fun tidbit. There have been five games that finished in regulation with a final margin of three or less (two of which went to overtime). I picked the wrong team in EVERY SINGLE ONE of those games.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Oooops?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Repeat from last thread bcuz I dint know’d this one was up yet….

OK, Mr. Ayo can’t play Brackets next year.

You’re on thin ice too, WCS.

Mr. Ayo

Let’s wait this one out champ. I guarantee I’ll be mid pack at best by the end.

Mr. Ayo

In the meantime, SUCK IT LOSERS!

Senor Weaselo

I want to either be right or chaos. 11s over 6s aren’t fun enough. 13s are just a start.

Spur

Bucknell got this in the bag.

theeWeeBabySeamus

You have more faith in the Tiggers than I do.
I think they might be ripe for a pluck.

Spur

West Virginia vs. Marshall. Which piece of household furniture does one burn for this type of event?

WCS

The broken down car that’s been in the yard for five years.

Senor Weaselo

I’m gonna guess it’s an old Chevy?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Does a cousin’s wedding dress count as furniture?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Probably made of the same material.
