I missed the video party last night, but I’ll take “Modern covers I’m unsure about” for $500, Alex.

It’s fine. It’s not “drags me back to my childhood” good, but it’ll do, donkey.
As for the original –
I’ll cut anyone who disrespects it.
A reminder – the original was written by Paul Williams,
who most people only remember for playing Little Enos Burdette in “Smokey & The Bandit”.
He was nominated for an Oscar for “Rainbow Connection”, and actually won the Oscar for writing “Evergreen”, the love theme from Barbra Streisand’s “A Star Is Born”. He’s won multiple Grammys, most recently in 2014 for co-writing on Daft Punk’s Record of the Year, “Random Access Memories”.
Plus, he wrote the “Love Boat” theme.

Somehow, SOMEHOW, hockey goes on without Don Cherry. Address your lamentations below.
No Wendy’s burger patty has looked even remotely like what is on these commercials.
Also, commercials are fucking awful. How have you all not burned down your local cable offices?
I’ve been to Wendy’s like twice and it exceeded my expectations each time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJs9p-VNORw
Wendy’s put me on this diet. I was tired of the greasy wet burgers so I said “Screw it, I’ll pack a lunch!”
CBS Sports Director is evil, cutting from the UC Kicker being carried off the field in victory and to the USF Kicker with a 1000 yard stare being in shock and despair after missing four field goals in a three point loss.
It’s not easy being Blair Walsh.
At least everyone remembers your name.
“Not true!”
-Trent Green
Staff at whatever food source ABC just showed: “Here’s some delicious barbecue for you…”
Me: “Oh, thank you very much!”
Staff: “…and now we’ll dump some beans and white bread on top of it!”
Me: “You are worse than Hitler.”
If they were worse than hitler, they’d be serving the bbq up from Walter Reed.
Pac10 after dark and Boise have just kicked off. You’ll ready!
It took UC’s quarterback 59 football minutes to remember how to quarterback.
In his defense, Truth Biscuit is on three years and running trying to figure that puzzle out.
What the shit happened with Kaep?
Also, these Beavers are eager
All things considered, ASU should be the beavers
Kaep had his own tryout because he wanted the media and fans to watch it. Also, he didn’t want to sign the waiver the NFL submitted.
Ohhhh. That makes sense.

Oklahoma’s decision to look to establish the ground game in the 4th quarter of a game they’re down 2 TD’s in seems interesting.
It’s a bold strategy, Cotton.
So I’ve been so busy posting and watching Landgrabbers/WacoRapists and Aggies/Cocks this evening that I totally missed Scotch-thirty. That oversight has now been addressed.
After agonizing for some time, I’ve settled on my go-to daily Scotch. Much as I love single malts, I have decided that I am happy drinking Famous Grouse blend, which I can obtain for 28 bucks for a 1.75.
The Cincinnati Bearcats’ march to the Cotton Bowl is about to be rerouted the Gasparilla Bowl.
I remember when the Cotton Bowl was a big deal, but that’s mostly because I’m old.
I attended a concert at the Cotton Bowl in August 1979:
I bought 5 hits of blotter acid from some skeevy looking guy in the parking lot, the hits were marked off with pencil. I did them all and was getting off like a Saturn booster when Billy Thorpe came out and played Children of the Sun.
Better than any fucking football game ever played in that shitty stadium
Quite the reminder that Joan Jett has been around forever.
Saw her when she was with the Runaways over 40 years ago.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMDn6V7ZLhE
…or not. The USF kicker just missed his fourth field goal of the night.
Just finished watching second Mandalorian. That baby is fucking adorable and awesome.
It’s ears display so much emotion. The show reminds of an Indiana Jones/Spaghetti Western movie.
It’s what everyone wanted the prequels and sequels to have been.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjxA25Tj1Ks
Somehow UC thinks they are playing backyard football and they can’t rush the QB until they count 5-One-Thousands because they had USF backed up on their own two and they didn’t blitz at all.
whoops. Land Thieves fumble into the end zone
You know what’s fun? Watching last year’s Super Bowl with a Pats fan.
This is great.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0034398/
A shit tonne of great cinematography .
Figured y’all would rather watch either of the NYG SBs or the Eagles victory with a P*ts fan. LIII was painful to watch, one of the Most Boring SBs in the 50 years I’ve been watching, but an ugly win is still a win.
Or I might be missing a subtle joke there in your post. It’s been known to happen.
I haven’t seen a comeback like this in Waco since Janet Reno got tired of David Koresh’s shit.
That had to Hurts
I was afraid that the joke was premature, but also worried that it would be irrelevant in about 5 minutes.
Right on both counts.
A) You can’t win them all
2) You can still be right
Thanks, Peter.
My pleasure.
Burning cult jokes will always be in.
No, this is good. That guy thought he was God. Reno just arranged an introduction between the two deities.
I remember coming home form school and my mom was watching this. As soon as i walked, she said “they got what they wanted, to be with God”,
Smells like bacon and cordite down there.
How did they identify David Koresh’s body?
He was the one in the charcoal pants and smoking jacket.
That was one of my favorite.
If it’s 10:00 PM it’s time for $3 pints at the only local bar in le quartier, watching hockey in French!
Le puck? what the hell is le puck?
$3 in Loonies or in Ameros?
The local currency, of course.
I took a picture of this in the bar at a Mexican restaurant in Plainville Massachusetts when I was there in August. I can’t figure out what movie it’s from. Anyone?
Pedro Armendáriz via google reverse image search. El Charro Negro, maybe?
Got it: Juan Charrasqueado
Apparently, the whole thing is on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OC02xTNl5mw
Awesome. I knew y’all would come through.
Cool. The only thing I remember him from is playing the Turkish agent in From Russia With Love. I guess his character would be genociding Kurds if he were still alive today, and probably was old enough in the From Russia With Love timeline to have genocided Armenians back during WWI. I lived in Turkey for three years as a teenager, and worked at Incirlik AB for several years back in 1999-2004, and as much as I love the country, the Turks are the most sensitive easily insulted snowflakes in the entire Mediterranean basin.
JV Cincy has 5 yds passing in the 4th Qtr. They are tied with a chance to take the lead.
Flyers up 3 going into the third, lose in a shootout. They did that hockey.
I hope can run a train on the Sooners, they’ve had plenty of practice on coeds.
Some weed, whiskey and outside TV watching

Hola
:Trump adminstration: YOU’RE DEPORTED
Oh, wait. The dorsal ridge is off.
Never mind.
“At Baylor we push the limits…”
Yeah. We know. There were multiple criminal investigations because of that.
BOOM! Der it is!
I like that the announcer, stealing from Al Michael’s lead, mentioned Dime Box, a nearby-to-College-Station country-ass hole in the wall that doesn’t even have a stop sign, but does have a bad-ass barbecue joint that usually makes the top 5 in Texas Monthly’s annual BBQ review.
Dime Box? Sounds like that stripper that stole my heart, and wallet, back in ‘ought3.
I love reverse google image search
Flyers give up two to start the third because it’s illegal for a Flyers game to end in regulation
And there’s the third with 2 to go. OT it is.
I need some of that. Just took an unplanned nap that has really messed with my drinking schedule.
Six+ month suspension/brakes/steering ordeal is finally done, put Vlad the Impala back down on the ground today for the first time since April. Few things to button up in the engine compartment, hope to have it started and running tomorrow, though football might get in the way of that. Next step will be to get it to the alignment shop, then I’ve got to pull the cylinder heads. Valve seals are leaking down so I get a huge cloud of blue smoke whenever it gets started after a few days sitting. With six+ months, it’s going to look like a refinery explosion when I start it next.
I was worried that the new suspension was going to make it sit too low, and it does sit low, but I kinda like it. It should handle a whole lot better than the stock iteration.
When you said “six month suspension” I thought you were talking about Myles Garrett.
NICE!

That’s a nice ride height. Get it running!
Similar things were said about my last girlfriend.
Ah hate fookin’ pikies.
Yeah, I’ve got to get out of my 1970s-1980s hot rodder mindset, Hi-Jackers and side pipes etc. (OK Boomer). It looks a lot better than I thought it would. Had to upgrade/modernize though; I never thought the 65 I restored in college handled poorly at the time, but when I got this one I was like “This thing handles like a fucking yacht!” I guess that’s to be expected since I’ve been driving BMWs and Lexii for the last 25 years, and they certainly spoiled me in that aspect.
Forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza. Pretty sure I could recite the whole movie. I watched the VHS copy of it til it fell apart.
You’d think Skerritt could have done better than this after being in such a landmark film as Alien.
1:00 to 1:30:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRXyWtv-huc
I sat through this movie at the theater three straight times the day it came out back in 1979. So fucking awesome.
Skerritt worked hard on every movie no matter how bad…… not sure his agent did.
I loved it. I love how violent it was
This is the 65 Impala I restored when I was in college after my time in the Navy, back in the mid-1980s. 427-4 speed. I delivered pizza for Domino’s for three years in this car while I attended school.
Question the wisdom of admitting to war crimes on a public forum
Pfft, the anthropomorphic sentient orange overflowing colostomy bag in the Oval Office pardons all war crimes. I think he did two or three just today.
Delivering pizza for Domino’s is most definitely a war crime and a crime against nature.
It’s been 30 years, isn’t there a statute of limitations?
Shouldn’t it take longer than it takes to digest Domino’s?
Ribs and beer
At least there’s something to look forward to as the end days approach…
I didn’t think there was an answer, in gif form, to “What would a cross between Steven Seagal and Herr Charlemango look like?
Thanks for the fookin’ nightmare fuel, Moose!
I am glad to be of help.
Holy cats, Shitty Wolves have managed to take a lead!
Strangest swordfight I ever saw.
Fox News: “LEFTIST INTERNET GROUP MAKES DEATH THREATS AGAINST THE PRESIDENT”
This joke is very opportunistic.
And very appropriate.
How the hell are those pumpkins that fresh this late into November
Baylor making Boomer Sooner their latest date rape victim tonight.
They will still lose a game, keep Big Twaaaaalve out the playoffs. Last team will be UGA (if they beat LSU) or Utah, methinks.
looks like that dude is also gooooooin’ on a mission…
“Crank that Iron Maiden and let’s get fucked up, bitches!”
Liars, I ain’t see Jack and Diane nowheres
That is in L.A.
Not gonna spend a deep dive to identify definitively, but that’s a mid-to-late 50s Chrysler product, and I am pretty sure an early-to-mid 60s Honda. Jack and Diane were either infants or still swimming around in their father’s balls when this photo was taken.
Well, yeah; 1968. But Hippo has a good joke.
I’m not here to shit on Hippo’s joke, but I don’t think that’s a Tastee Freez, either.
What these two are saying is that Hippo’s joke was bad
ain’t they always?
He was going after the chili dog, so it was good, maybe settled for a field goal, but it was still good.
“Pastrami Malts!?! I WANT that recipe!”
-A. Reid
I don’t know, but we do know he liked dem tiddies.
MOAR FLESH MEEN MOAR BLOOD!!!
Goddam I loved those Marathon candy bars, probably a leading factor in my being diagnosed with adult-onset type II diabetes 25 years after this ad ran.
Nancy goes edgy.
Did she shave her legs or shave her bush?
Best thing is that Nancy was originally written and drawn by Ernie BUSHmiller. GET IT?!?!

He’s a political prisoner
Jalen Hurtz gonna be looking to transfer back to Bammy if Baylor wins this game.
Flyers up two on Islanders, and continue to skate with the best teams in the league, but their only regulation loss in November came to the lowly fucking Sens. This team is destined to get spoiled by the fucking Devils.
I have a strong feeling Philly will beat NE tomorrow. They’re 5-4 and need the game WAY more than NE. It’s their super bowl. The secondary is playing better as it gets healthy. Their offensive line is second to none. Jay Ajayi is only 26 years old, and while injury prone, is coming on the scene with fresh legs in week 11. Alshon’s soft tissue can’t be trusted, but I’d rather see those tight ends running routes against linebackers all afternoon anyway. Shit. If they DO beat NE, they COULD run the goddamn table!
PUT AJAYI IN AT SLOT
Ajayi might be adventurous and free spirited, but he is no slot.
There’s no shame in what he’s doing.
I was not slot shaming.
Shoes that close to the counter, that’s a
paddlinghealthcode violation.Gonna need some ointment after that
I have those same shoes! And pasties! I mean, shoes! Just the shoes!
Michael Irvin’s favorite diner
OK, good one.
I agree. The O line is still good. They can handle those cheating swine. The Sex Criminals only have a win over a week one Steelers team (week 1 means nothing in my opinion because there’s no film to work off) and a bunch of tomato cans, including a rather close one against the browns who turned the ball over like it was on purpose.
I would normally agree with your prediction, but NE is coming off a loss and that usually doesn’t bode well for their next opponent.
I don’t remember this episode of Might Mouse (TM).
Pepperidge Farms remembers.
Thanks for fixing that.
Never know how things are going to look when I post, so I always make sure that there is something to look at before I move on from a post…
Say what you will about Puerto Ricans, like their willingness to serve as corporate headquarters for shady football blogs, but if you can find a bodega within 5 minutes of your house that serves dinner you will feed a family of 3 like gods for $20.
I’m going to buy these people a fryolater so they can make some goddamn empanadas and I can make only one stop instead of the having to head another 5 minutes up the street to the Spanish-American bakery.
I can only vouch for the pork, stew and rice.
Haven’t tried the octopus yet.
1920’s tentacle porn was weird.
Haha. Because modern tentacle porn isn’t.
OF COURSE NOT!
Tonight I made veal stew with white rice and cabbage + cucumber salad. Also,
The extended cut of “Bohemian Rhapsody” is called “Live Aids”.
Ronald Reagan’s rotted corps approves of this.
WVU beats #23 K-State in the Little Apple
Surprised no FOX NEWS chyron, given their usual geographic (among other subjects) stupidity and ignorance.
It’s RT; same general interests.
Today the Reedley Tigers hosted 6-3 Hartnel in one of the bigger games of the season.
52-34 Reedley fucking Tigers!

OSU so far down their depth chart, the box score just says “Player 4 rushed to the left”
Thanks for the update, commentator 450.
What did we do to merit Adam Archuleta?
You touch yourself at night. Jesus hates that shit.
