The fact that I now know this means Seamus is still trying to inflict his musical stylings on me from beyond the grave: Apparently, it’s a “thing” for newbie idiot Green Day listeners to tweet at Billie Joe Armstrong on October 1st. Because September ended. GET IT?! (h/t Cracked)
Of course, much like people get the meaning of “In The Air Tonight” wrong – Actual meaning: Phil Col… I don’t fucking care! – tweeting at him about this song is pouring salt into a wound, since the song is about the death of his father in September 1982 when he was ten, and how every year since puts him further away from the life he shared with a person he clearly cared deeply about.
Anyway, since it earwormed into my head, I figured I’d pass it around like a bong at a bush party. It’s what Seamus would want.
(Both; he’d want both.)
Besides, real assholes know what’s what: dialing 867-5309 in every town you visit.
That’s a classic dick move! Lazy millennials just don’t want to put in the work.

I usually forget these in September, and start remembering to include them once October hits. Also, the maps for CBS changed between Wednesday and Saturday due to the rescheduling of the COVID Bowl between Pittsburgh & Tennessee.

Tonight’s other TV:
Apparently it’s the season premiere of SNL tonight. Chris Rock is the host & Megan Thee Stallion is the musical guest. I don’t know who she is, but some Canadian hippity hopper named Tory Lanez is awaiting charges for shooting her in the foot earlier this year. I’m sure one of her songs will reference that.
——————————————————–
[Fun fact: in checking to see if “Hippity Hopper” was a racist term, I learned it was the name of that stupid boxing kangaroo from the old “Looney Tunes” cartoons.
Researched fact: It’s not racist (at least that I could find) but a predecessor to Sylvester was in one of the “Censored Eleven” cartoons that Warner Brothers made but United Artists withheld from syndication after 1968 over the use of ethnic stereotypes. Specifically, the cat in “Angel Puss” was based on the Stepin’ Fetchit character pioneered by Lincoln Perry, who made a lot of movies in the 1930s but was stereotyped out of work when Hollywood began retiring most of its severely racist caricatures in the 1940s. (His foil in the cartoon is a boy named “Sambo”, so you know how that’s going to go.) The cartoon is available online but I won’t link to it here, to help try & keep [DFO] off certain databases.
Sad fact: Perry’s son Donald was the identified shooter in the 1969 Pennsylvania Turnpike shooting, in which 3 people were killed & 17 others wounded during a shooting spree with an M1 and a carbine before he turned the gun on himself. There is a conspiracy theory that he was set up by the FBI as part of their COINTELPRO program to take the blame for the shooting as an attempt to discredit the black power movement he was a part of after returning stateside following his two tours of Vietnam.]
Man – cartoon history rabbit holes get pretty dark pretty quick. Enjoy your evening!
Going by my secondhand knowledge of the industry color coding, I believe that’s the electrician
Oh, wait. No. Red is the electrician. That’s the safety supervisor.
Didn’t S*ll have a thing for her?
Who gives a shit? So do a lot of others.
Good point. I don’t even know why I thought about that
I’m an idiot
She obviously did not graduate from NC State.
Saints have a player with NuAIDS. Kamara and 4 others being re-tested since they sat near the player on the plane to Detroit
It was fun while it lasted. Back to binge watching anime on Sundays
and ordering stuff.
SNL–still not good
SNL: Still No Laughs
Was not expecting Bruce Campbell as Ronald Reagan, but definitely approve of it
Goddamn it, that bathroom scene was perfect. I hope that becomes the definitive version of Reagan in America’s collective memory. .

Back to normal in WV?
How did he get a Babel fish? I always wanted one of those.
Why don’t we have those? And where is the flying car I was promised?
People can’t drive in two dimensions….. you want to add another one?
I would hope they would have some kind of collision avoidance system. You may say I’m a dreamer….
We elected Trump; any safety measure would be quickly and easily overcome.

I’m not sure if Trump or Christie is the canary in the coal mine for me. I’m pretty much Trump’s size (so he is definitely around 350) but I guess that other fat fucking failure is close enough.
Either way, while I’m technically healthy so fucking what. If I get it I’m going to die. So I’m curious to see what happens to these two losers.
Flacco Sandwich?
It has something between the bread slices so I don’t think so.
White cheese could be too spicy.
Still has the crust, so nope, tooo spicy
Cutting the crust off is for fancy sandwiches.
He isn’t British, is he?
Needs mayo.
What do you think that mass in the middle is?
Doctor: It’s okay to get an erection during a prostate examination.
Me: I don’t have an erection.
Doctor: I do.

Holy shit on a brick, WVU might actually have a shot at winning the Big 12 (minus two) this year. Maybe COVID has it’s benefits after all?
For some reason I have alway thought In the Air Tonight was about Collins’s divorce at the time.
I always thought it was about a really rank fart ripped in the close confines of the recording studio and the ensuing argument as to who dealt it.
Isn’t it obvious who dealt it?
Probably hard to determine when everyone is playing, may be hard to tell if timed correctly with the drums.
The wind instrument was added by the producer.
(who smelt it dealt it)
The very rare albino in the wild.

Well that was a scary year or two of relevance, but good to see that Oklahoma back to being a non-factor in the national championship world.
/Still a whole quarter to go and they’re only down 3…
10th Legion rolls eyes.
Roman or Adeptus Astartes?
I didn’t think Cleo and Tony had anything to do with the Space Marines.
Inquisitor Antonious and Magisterium Cleopatris, you know the pict drama by Scriviner Shakespeare? The follow up to The Taming of the Tao?
You cruise the correct sci-fi convention in that and you will be drowning in Twilek poontang by curfew time.
found a funny:
Cannot stop thinking about Koko the gorilla being asked to tell a joke and her signing “I love Ron” about one of the researchers. Can you imagine being Ron
“beau, Nick’s” is what we’d be calling him if he went to Alabama
If he didn’t have a lighter he would be No Bic’s.
Athens GA does NAWT appear to be social distancing tonight. Michael Stipe will be penning a sternly worded letter.

Time for a bowl, glass of wine, some SexiMexi futbol.
Not being into the smoke, WineWife has settled for a bowl of wine.
I’m rocking a nice pinot noir right now. Life is good.
Put up the artwork. Added the final touches to the fish tank and let my new robot vacuum my damn floor.
That sounds like a solid Saturday. Well played.
Good work, my dude. Moving is a king-sized bitch, and you did it with speed and precision. Enjoy your new place!
Thanks. It was an insane week or two but damn am I glad it’s over. The fish are all happy too.
I’m glad Joliet Jake is consulting so many medical professionals tonight.
Whoa.
The new season of Fargo takes off like a rocket. I’m all in.
I just started S2 yesterday. So much to catch up on
Possibly the best season, because of KD; also, possibly the worst season because KD and Fat Matt Damon met on set and now she won’t return my fan mail.
She was so damn good in that.
Great season. Enjoy.
The first season, Billy Bob was a goddamn force of nature. That sold me.
Yeah, I was sad to see his arc end. The season could have just been him reading his lines and I’d have wanted more.
Chris Rock – solid, yet knows enough to let the others have their moments.
Just watched the first two episodes of Series 4. I’m pretty confused, but I like it.
So….. Balls Deep.
They must not look at many movie producer’s basements.
Okay.
Maybe I should have said Harvey Weinstein’s house, didn’t say if it was a fully equipped sex dungeon.
I watched that last night, hadn’t seen it in years. It was silly fun, perfect after a few edibles.
Oh my!
Did someone forget to crtl-MouseScrollDown on this or something?
Fuck the haters. She’s gorgeous.
Absolutely.
Fucking rights she is.
With the amount of airbrushing/photoshopping/filtering on the rest of her you’d think they could have accounted for the 10 cameras (and therefore 100 pounds) too.
/May be approaching Bourble/Sill Bimmons level of bitterness
You better start live-blogging a movie then.
I would appreciate an artistic view of Porky’s on a live blog.
“Kim Cattrall, who played ‘Lassie’, was know for portraying sexually provocative characters.”

If you spend 6 months calling the Virus a Democratic Hoax, is it too late to pivot to calling it a Democratic Deep State assassination tool? Asking foar a fiend…
“Why are many republicans testing positive?”
So runs the tweet, followed by hundreds of pictures of them not following any protocols.
“What does Q have to say?” – racist uncle’s new go-to.

Is that Oook, James Oook, license to peel?
I see…
She’s very popular…..
I don’t get where the profit comes in from being that fucking far gone.
To all the guys in my dopey fantasy league: ESPN Fantasy just released a post regarding how they’ll treat players with COVID and games that are postponed. The article made the point that I can alter the rosters to allow up to 4 IR slots. The problem is I just spent an hour combing through FAQs in the support section, and I’ll be damned if I can figure out how to enable this feature. In fact, the page clearly states, “Roster sizes can not be changed when your draft is complete.” I’ll stay on it, and sorry for the confusion.
Luckily I’ve only ever won or lost by like 50 points, so one player on Covid-IR won’t really make a difference.
Awful shame that Chris Christie has the rona. Would be terrible if he died with the comorbidity of obesity.
He has asthma too.
But, somehow, not diabetes.
Cheers to that.
Someone or something in this Auburn-Geaorwja game appears to be named “Smoke Monday.” FCC do your job!
Update: I’m going to Hell because I’m enjoying the fact that Trump and his cronies have gotten COVID-19.
Join the Express Train!
You’ll have plenty of company.
I can connect Warner Bros cartoons and Vietnam Conspiracies in 5 steps.
DrambuieDudeDick: “Hold my beer.”
The breathless reporting especially by the Times makes me confident that Trump will survive. I would be happy if everyone at that press conference event dies for whatever reason, but that also applies to everyone else in D.C. (even the people I know). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Texas A&M offensive line is horrible, which means the Jets will try and draft them in their entirety next year.
Bill fucking Burr hosting SNL next week, meaning I have to watch it, and will be disappointed to the point that it lowers his standing in my mind. I saw him co-headline a college orientation–had to be sober and take a breathalyzer to get in the door!–with a student who was also a DJ and that shit was 2 years after Chappelle’s Show ended. He once got ripped apart on O&A by Patrice O’Neal for accepting a gig doing stand-up on a shuttle bus taking fans to the Fenway Park.Can’t believe ol’ Bill got the call.

For a brief second I thought you were referring the US Attorney General, and said to myself that it would never work.
Same here. I would’ve watched to see which person sucker punches him live on the air or if they line up to punch him in the end credits.
These days, you could just get a list of all of the area codes across the country and dial them, XXX-867-5309, from the comfort of your recliner. Bound to get a couple hits.
