Your “Tell Me What You Want, What You Really Really Want” Friday Evening Open Thread

First off, just so SonOfSpam  doesn’t “Dude” me incessantly tonight (he probably will anyway)…Full Disclosure….

I was not a fan of The Spice Girls’ music.  Of course for a while there, one couldn’t help but be exposed to it regardless of whether they wanted to be or not.  So I am familiar with it.  Well at least some of it.

But Fuller Disclosure….

I did always have thing for Emma Bunton…AKA “Baby Spice”.  And frankly, I still do.  My thing  still likes her a lot.

It’s her week this week.

Sports Which Will Spice You Up 2Nite

NHL

No national broadcasts in the lower 48.  Color me shocked.  But one more week to go before the playoffs get rolling.

Full Schedule

NBA

  • Boston @ Indiana – 8:00pmEDT – TV: ESPN
  • Portland @ Denver – 10:30EDT – TV: ESPN

Full Schedule

MLB

Bettman must have secretly become the commish for MLB while I wasn’t watching.  No national games.   Check your locals.

Full Schedule

And maybe it’s all for the best anyway.  The Final Four gets rolling tomorrow so rest up and pace yourselves.

 

Emma Bunton

Born: 21 January, 1976, London

She’s Yummy.

Enjoy…

Hummina hummina….

That’s just too much.

(see what I did there?)

OK, Time To Say Goodbye For This Week

 

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Love ya’s.

Blue Jackets-Rangers overtime ends in a tie, I guess that’s the end of that game. definitely not some kind of arbitrary skillz coimpetition to follow.

Dunstan

Certainly not. Surely I would have seen such a thing if it happens.

Shootout loss: well that doesn’t count it’s just a stupid shootout who cares it’s not even real hockey.
Shootoup win: well that was anticlimactic.

I remember finding that scene terrifying, only to later learn that tarantulas aren’t that dangerous. You have a better chance of killing Bond by offering him a few martinis and hoping he crashes his car on the way home.

It was on Scandal. She was the Vice President and then some kind of thing happened and she became President.

But Shirley you want them to lose at this point, for teh lottery

Dunstan

I’m a Habs fan, hoping for a little help from an Original Six bro.

Et ne m’appellez Shirley.

herodotus450

But Shirley you want the Hab(been)s to lose so the nhl can stuff the lottery so they win and get the first pick, tor teh lottery?
/not a fan of MTL

Dunstan

The NHL doesn’t cut us any breaks. Bettman doesn’t give a shit about any Canadian team.

But yeah, it’s not like getting trounced by Tampa in the first round is an appealing prospect. Plus the supposedly harsh but actually wimpy Montreal media is already praising our idiot GM just because the team doesn’t suck as badly as we expected after he fucked it up.

Still, when push comes to shove I can never actually root for my team to lose/be eliminated.

herodotus450

Bettman doesn’t give a shit about any Canadian team.

/Counts to ∞ in Edmonton first overall draft picks
//Also Tronno getting Mathews, the frozen envelope
///Also I hate Pat Roy so much

Dunstan

Eh. I hate the Leafs, but no way Bettman wasn’t hoping that the Coyotes would get the chance to draft local boy Matthews.

And it’s a crime that the Oilers have gotten to waste so many high picks, but that was just dumb luck.

Oh, and we welcome your hatred. The Habs should be hated, like the Yankees are.

herodotus450

Yea I guess Auston to Arizona would save the NHL owned totally independent Coyotes.
Since we like to refer to other sprots in terms of the nfl, I always asumed the Leafos would be the Cowboys of the NHL, but then who are the Canadians? Packers or Bears perhaps;

Dunstan

I’ve referred to them here as the Ice Alouettes, but yeah, Bears is probably the better comparison — used to be dominant, but lately just manage to flirt briefly with competence before fucking it up.

Which is why I don’t mind still being hated — nobody outside of division rivals really hates the Bears any more, they’re not relevant enough.

I, too, preferred Baby Spice, and thought I was weird because everyone else seemed hung up on Ginger or Sporty. This photo collection vindicates my 90s self.

I always felt the need to “test” them all to make sure of my choice.

Dunstan

Very wise.

I just noticed the banner quote. I missed a rare offseason sighting of the elusive balmer fozz.

No, you didn’t. It was on the slack channel we use for scheduling posts.

How’d you do thAt?
I too hate reddit video….

Unsurprised

Use https://redv.co (or something similar. Google “reddit video downloader”)

Copy the video url and then paste it into the Gfycat create form to make sure it converts the full video or whatever. Depends on how creative you are planning to get.

Unsurprised

Gfycat URLs are pretty simple if you don’t cut and paste the links directly.

Here’s a pro tip for you: just fill that glass all the way up with alcohol to avoid pesky, calorie-expending walks back to the liquor cabinet later.

Just Lurking

Christ, that banner pic looks like my spice cabinet…what a cluster

Porky Prime

When I worked at Blockbuster back in the glorious 90s, there was a female manager who was pretty cool (eventually married my best friend actually) who would let us shut down the horrible horrible advertisement tape pretty early. The downside is she got first pick on movies. I saw Romy and Michele’s high School reunion, clueless and spice world a lot. Like a lot a lot. Not so much because she loved them but because those were reasonably PGish and quick to grab when she didn’t want to think too much.

And in all honesty, those weren’t really the worst movies in the world she could have picked

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I would think the worst movie in the world that she could have picked (that would fit the PG criteria) would have been Corky Romano.

Unsurprised

Was this in Albuquerque?

Porky Prime

No, SoCal
