Subsequent GTD reflections

Welcome back to the comments of the week. Another week of the site being slow and troublesome to log into and post. Thanks for sticking with us as we go through some moving pains. I’ve been told that the site has been moved providers way behind the scenes and that things are slowing being worked on to get them back to what we’re used to. Hats of to DTZM for getting this done with the site. Someone should buy him a drink or three.

At the home front, it is officially March April break this week, so the kids are off.  Think they need the break.  Also the provincial government has finally come to their senses and schooling here will be virtual for the next while.  I get that is suuuuucks out loud for the kids not to have all the social stuff that it brings, but with the spreading of the Covids in the schools and our general lack of vaccines and that kids under 16 can’t get it, yet, anyway it just makes sense to keep them at home.  For all those parents with young kids, kudos to you for keeping them busy and being able to work too.

As a reminder, this post will cover comments made up to and through the Saturday Night Open Thread. Sunday comments stand alone and Monday comments will go on the next week’s post.

Without further ado, here are the comments of the week.

Me when I first moved to L.A.: “Holy shit, it’s an earthquake!”

Me waking up in the middle of last night: “Hmm, guess that was an earthquake. Ok, back to sleep.”

Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m hoping the Jets trade down and get a stud DB. Give Darnold a shot with (what I think is going to be) a MUCH better HC. Let Saleh build a ferocious defense to lessen his burden, and if, in a couple more years, he can’t turn it around, cut bait. That way if we DO need a new QB, he can be a game-manager with shut down D for his first couple of years. Hell, Buffalo is going to rule this division for the foreseeable future. Grow something good in the meantime.

Who am I kidding? It’s the Jets. They’ll fuck everything up. And I’m a Jets fan, so this comment probably won’t even post.

Pfizer Dose #2 is now in my arm, and that shit is HEAVY.

Wife just got hers today, too. In 2 weeks, she might let me touch her again. It’s only been 36 years.

The Seahawks would still be moar prepared for the draft than the Browns, Jets, Bengals and Cowboys ( probably combined) based on this scenario

“And you have to import those fine, fine whores for the post-draft orgy! Nuthin’ but the best for my gott-dammed war room stars! YEEEeeeeeHAAAAaawwwww I AM FUCKIN’ CRAZY!!!”

Really digging the new error page, guys. Thanks!

Mr. Ayo

Meh, the cool kids are all getting error 503, failed backend fetch!

I will say it again. This is the most interesting series [Scammer series] of all.
litre_cola

For me it’s the mock drafts; painstakingly handcrafted over a period of time sometime exceeding four minutes each one is truly a masterpiece.

Oh, but these are cool, too

I need a crossover where one of Maestro’s scammers calls in to Jalen for advice on what to do with his griftings.

Just got vaccinated. No side effects so far unless you count a strong urge to start happy hour early.
Dunstan

Hopefully it’s not your drinking arm that’s sore.

When it comes to drinking, I’m ambidextrous.

Three days after the single J&J vaxx, and so far the only side effect is getting a boner when I hear a Pet Shop Boys song.

(j/k always had that happen)

Get vaccinated and get drunk and do Matt Gaetz!

Site unfucked? Hooray for Internet Dad!

Shit, I have to start writing the two BattleBots Beats that I owe. And the hopefully fixed championship poll. And the Beaties. And a House of Pain.
Senor Weaselo

Internet Dad is the unsung hero of this site.

I’d sing his praises more if he ever commented!

Golf is boring enough, and now they are making it even worse by delaying for storms and eliminating the prospect of seeing someone on the course get hit by lightning and lit up like a Christmas tree? What the fuck, Augusta?

Checking out some microbreweries’ web sites, and it always cracks me up that they ask “are you 21 years of age?” (I’m sure it’s some dumb regulatory requirement, not something they do voluntarily.) Yes, that’ll baffle all of the underage drinkers who are seeking out the latest double IPA or whatever…

Me, age 19, trying to get on the Piels Light web-site. ‘Well, I’m not 21, guess I have to click the ‘no’ button and go to bed”

So I am dropping off Decilitre at Tumbling, there is a microbrewery right behind. You are supposed to stay in your car in case needed. But……. I mean i am still close right???
litre_cola

Pick up a growler and inspect the parking lot
BrettFavresColonoscopy

My only issue is that you might be too big to fit into a microbrewery. Are there any macrobrewerys nearby?

/microbrewerys are really tiny, right?

My brother and cousin decided to come stay with me this weekend AFTER understanding my wife is out of town. They just took off to the strip. I’m thinking they didn’t appreciate the VEGAS!!!!! limitations on a father of a two year old flying solo for a few days.

I’m glad to have my night to myself actually.

Here’s a lo-res rough speed test, but I just had to share the route through the cones I went through today. It all went very smoothly though, I must say.

This is from entry to check-in to vaccination tents to exit.

Tater Tots saved my life several times. Go on? Sure. There was a two years-long period of time when I was going to school full time, working as a bartender full time and drinking full time. I went to school Monday-Thursday, did a night shift Thursday and double shifts Friday, Saturday and Sunday. After each of those shifts a gang of us would shut the bar down and the drinking would begin. Tons of deep-fried Tater Tots and gallons of coffee the next morning gave us the energy to work the following day.

/I’m not exactly sure how I made it thru that period alive
