Your Mid-Long Canadian Weekend Sunday Evening Open Thread

Beerguyrob

/

, ,

Is everything going well for you? The long weekend is proceeding according to plan so far.

I’ve been sober long enough to survive my niece’s 7th birthday party. Now it’s back to the steak & cider.

That’s right, I’ve chosen fermented apples for this weekend. Mostly because the dogs don’t like Beerdrunkrob. Ciderrob is a more pleasant fellow that can remember to take them for walks & doesn’t yell at them for chewing so loud.

Tonight’s sports:

  • NHL:
    • no game scheduled; Gary Bettman thought 3:00PM Sunday was the perfect fucking time for the faceoff of a pivotal Conference final game.
  • CHL:
    • Memorial Cup – Guelph vs. Halifax – 7:00PM | Sportsnet360
  • NBA:
    • Bucks at Raptors – 7:00PM | TNT / Sportsnet
  • MLB:
    • Cubs at Nationals – 7:00PM | ESPN / TSN2
  • MLS:
    • LA Galaxy vs. Colorado – 8:00PM | TSN

Hopefully, before the night is over, I’ve finally seen “John Wick 3”.

So there is a character that I like, that I relate to. Of course he was killed in the finale.

Of course, I’m talking about Spider with a Top Hat.

Oh, wrong finale?

Well, at least Ramin Djawadi consistently brought the heat.

Couldn’t find it, but SNL did a skit with Kevin Spacey as Wonka’s accountant calling him out on his all b.s.

“You have a whole river of chocolate that some brat nearly died in. How do you think that’s going to look to the investors?”

Accountant: “Here’s our yearly profits.”
(song starts – Oompa-Loompa’s appear)
Oompa-Loompas (singing): “Oompa-Loompa, doopadee-doo. I’ve got a budget report for—”
Accountant: “No, no, no. Don’t sing. just tell us.”
Oompa-Loompa: “You’re Oompa-Loompa-Screwed.”
Accountant: “You hear that? Oompa-Loompa-Screwed.”

It’s because of who won the women’s MiTB match, isn’t it?

2

No, but I’m glad that happened. So is WWE because they’ll continue to get my money every month.

yeah right

As Low Commander alluded to earlier, prior to the start of season 6 Game of Thrones was in the discussion for greatest show ever. Their production values remain insane but my opinion says it’s still The Sopranos, The Wire, Breaking Bad and The Leftovers.
You can throw Better Call Saul and Fargo in that discussion and you won’t get an argument out of me.

Also, whenever fat ass decides to finish the books I will go on record and say the ending will be entirely different.

2
Gratliff

For the more anime-oriented among us, the best analogy I’ve seen so far was Full Metal Alchemist. They finished the anime before the manga had a finish and it went completely off the rails by the end, and the second half of the manga was so good that they had to completely remake the series to match the quality. Of course, no show will ever have the budget of GoT again, so that probably won’t happen.

1
Unsurprised

I hope GRRM never finishes them.

So does he. You might see ‘Winds of Winter’ but my guess is you’ll see me Pope before you see the end of that series.

Brick Meathook

The ultimate Brick Meathook Themed hotel just opened in New York City and it’s the hottest ticket in town. It’s the TWA Hotel at the former Idlewild Airport (now called JFK), and it incorporates the perfectly restored 1962 Eero Saarinen designed head house. There’s a Lockheed Constellation Super-G outside the windows that is now a bar, and every room has a rotary telephone, there’s even rotary payphones. I’m going to book a room there while it’s still new before it gets shabby (it’s so new right now that it isn’t completely finished).

Fifteen years ago I almost bought the TWA logo (featured everywhere in this hotel) because it was abandoned after the bankruptcy. All I had to do was re-register it with the USPTO for about $700 and use it in active commerce (I could have made a website that sold a TWA coffee mug with the logo and that would count). Alas, I didn’t.

That’s not me.

When I met Ivory, I gave her the same handshake I gave Kurt Angle and Bradshaw. Probably because I naturally assumed if I gave her any signs of disrespect, either she would kill me or she’d ask Angle and Bradshaw to kill me for her.

I sometimes forget that Ivory is almost 60.

When watching baseball, I do not like the little box they put on the screen graphics these days telling me where the strike zone should be.

It is distracting. And I know where the strike zone is. I have a rulebook and everything.

I think it’s for the umps. Because they sure don’t know.

Those golden ticket winning little shits are about to have hell unleashed on them by one Willy Wonka.

I still don’t understand why Violet lost. She did nothing wrong. She tried a faulty product; that’s all she did.

She didn’t nearly drown in a chocolate river.
She didn’t have a musical number about wanting a golden goose.
She didn’t get herself shrunk.
She didn’t stole fizzy drink and touch a wall that now needs to be sterilized.

Violet should’ve won the factory. Not that poor ass kid.

Willy Wonka doesn’t care about women.

A slow burning tire fire instead of a dumpster fire?

3
theeWeeBabySeamus

Yeah, probably so.

2

While I would not use the word “rousing” by any means, I would also not use “tire fire”. RTD can suck it.

We’re having dinner again tonight.

If you’re having dinner a 2nd time, that means she enjoys your company. I’m calling that a win.

I don’t want to go out to watch the GoT finale at a bar. Or watch it at all.

Anyway, I just scanned a ton of handwritten notes I’ve made over the last few months in a feeble attempt at journaling or reflection or something. So I’ve got that going for me. Now to see what’s worth keeping.

Didn’t realize the open thread was up, so I’ll ask here too.
The local news is showing a thing about Game of Thrones.
I have never watch Game of Thrones.
Is it worth a binge? And by binge, of course I mean get drunk and watch episode one over and over because I nod off and can’t remember.

No. Read the books instead.

I’m probably the only person on Earth whose ending they were focused on was “Star vs. the Forces of Evil”.

I mentioned on the other post but,
Graphic violence, graphic nudity and graphic language with an incredible group of actors.

Anything I’m missing?

The books were great and it was really fun having fore knowledge while watching the show with people who didn’t read. Apart from them hitting pause and asking me “Who the fuck is that again?”
