I’ll be honest. I’ve got nothing for this week.
I thought I had something and then the week went by in a flash and now it’s 4 PM Pacific on Sexy Friday and I’m typing out my thoughts on the keyboard ahead of post time at 5 PM Pacific.
Beerguyrob had a great idea with posting hot Olympic athletes, but there’s not enough time and I need to actually watch some Olympics to see what hot unknown Olympians are lurking out there.
All I know is that there were two very cute rowers in the Women’s Skulls doubles competition yesterday! I do not remember, though, which country they were from. Part of me wants to say Netherlands but another wants to say Belgium because they were wearing red. Switzerland?
I dunno. I’ll figure it out and get back to you.
Alls I know is that King Hippo really should be watching women’s rowing for the bare shoulders alone.
I highly recommend streaming the Games on the NBC Sports app. It allows you to avoid the stupid feel-good filler that NBC usually provides (unless you are into that kind of thing. No judgment here, it’s a safe space.) and they have very limited commercials and they wait until a break in the action to run them.
I’ve enjoyed watching rowing, softball, and soccer this way and I think I’ll be watching the rest of the events this way.

A BLT is never a bad idea.
This is my go-to brunch item at my Chicago neighborhood bar
Beer, Lemon Drop, Tequila?
Much better representation.
This Woodstock ’99 Doc sure does show the danger of Angry White Male America.
What are they mad about? You’re white and male, the world belongs to you.
I went to Woodstock ’99 but we left before most of the rioting because we didn’t want to get stuck in traffic leaving the parking lot/camp ground
Evening Folks
Good to see you Spur!
Lucked out and my connection is delayed by slightly more than my ex-SFO flight! They’re getting monsooned in Phoenix
Seattle is drier and warmer than Phoenix in summer?
What a world.
Last funny:
[taking date back to my place]
me: this is my treehouse
her: this is just a regular tree
me: *struggling to climb up* yeah but i live in it
US woman came in 6th in Air Pistol. No word yet on the AR-15 competition.
Fun Fact: Air Pistol is what they called the hybrid clone of Michael Jordan and Pete Maravich. The poor kid actually sucked at basketball, on account of cloning technology being in its infancy. He was a really dull, uninteresting kid, too. “Please Kill Me” was all he ever said.

Someone skipped ahead.
I’ve been here for the copious video game music. Okay, really just Starlight Zone.

How early is too early to go to bed?
Midnight. Unless you want to go to sleep watching porn.
Depends on when the day drinking started. I believe there’s an eight hour corollary. So 10:00am = 6:00pm.
8 p.m. But you have to bring a book with you and pretend that you are going to read for a while.
As long as you aren’t operating heavy machinery, any time is a good time for bed
We have leftovers to eat up, so, of course, I get the phone call to pick up dinner. Never fails.
I’ll snack on leftovers, but I have a hard time accepting them as a complete meal.
Probably because I live in a bachelor pad where everyone cleans their plates and always gets seconds. It’s just expected
Brazilian skateboarder is Rocking!!
This legitimately looks like the album cover from a girl raised in an upper middle class family who only ever sings about how much her life sucks
Avril Lavigne?
The original or replacement one?
The newest Q-Anon theory seems to be that Tom Hanks is either dead or has been replaced.
Maybe you should convince her to let you taste her lucky charms.
It’s actually a dude, but I’m sure the comments still apply.
Watching tennis, did not care to watch opening ceremony. Plus, he said she, for whatever that means now, I am old and therefore confused by change.
You learn something every day. I had no idea bucket hats were a thing in Archer-y…
(watching the parade) GREASED UP TONGAN GUY!!!
Mac has entered the chat.
I am so not gay, but even I cannot resist that charm.
Greased up guy from Vanuatu has also entered the chat. Cue the “Our battle will be legendary!” memes!
Dude named Chaz Lucius just got drafted, his scouting report says he’s “…very dangerous…”
Is that a threat?
That Irish rower is pretty hairy!
Reminder that she’s a bronze medalist in Judo

Good policy is to never fuck anything less than a silver medalist.
Sure, if you want to have “standards” or “dignity” like some snob who tells you they never drink their own urine. Like I really believe that!
Are you kidding, the ones in last place just had their self confidence shattered, shooting fish in a barrel.
I always wanted to hang out at the Broadway Bar in downtown LA to try to pick up dancers who’d bombed out in their So You Think You Can Dance audition. The Dr. Mrs. said no, though. Killjoy. It’s not like I’d have ever scored.
In tournament format, the Silver and Bronze medalists lose only once.
I’ll settle for any podium ass.
How DARE you suggest that the self proclaimed BADDEST WOMAN ON THE PLANET isn’t all that skilled when facing opponents not cherry picked by Dana White
US goes down to Indonesia in Archer-y!
Tell me we win the gun events, please.
We win on MOST guns, not accuracy.
A girl from my HS competed in rifle back in 2008. I believe the Chinese dominated that competition, though.
Misleading thumbnails strike again!

And down goes Russia to Turkey!
Looks like Archer-y is not a superpower sport…
GAWGAH DO DAWGS PAWLLLLL
Olympics are boring. Switching to the office on connect central now.
I say way too much at my desk this week. I never want to sit again. Ugh.
Just don’t look.
The stupidity of America is what keeps me secure in my own position, as undeserving as it may be.
What are you doing up there that Tucson doesn’t have to offer?
Oh yeah. Tucson didn’t have jobs.
I couldn’t even write about the jobs situation there. It’s way behind for its size but that just really Needs to be experienced firsthand.
That actually sounds good, I am behind in my reading, thank Morrigan for the kindle or my house could be an episode of hoarders.
This McTavish kid is supposedly born in Swiss-erland, plays for Canada, but his Country of Origin on the NHL website is “CHE.” Chile?
Kenya coming in with 85 marathoners….
No, that’s the weightlifting team.

Can we still boo Bettman via Zoom?
Watching the draft is essential, to learning how to pronounce these guys’ names, because you might not hear them again for (if ever) years.
#nogoalie
Rumor out there that the Sens will draft a goalie at 10. Please, Jeebus, don’t go there.
goalies have a lower chance of panning out, and therefore getting large contracts, so it makes sense for the Sens
And the thing is, they’ve got 5 half-decent prospects in the system AND they’re ‘apparently’ towards the end of the rebuilding phase. So picking a keeper don’t make no sense ’cause he won’t be ready for a few years.
Edible recommendation for the week: Fudgies!
Slovenian triple jumper Snežana Rodič
Bless you!
Great Achilles’ tendons!
Ok Hero, your guess as to who the Wings draft?
Just playing the numbers, I’m gonna go with another guy named Hughes.
“The flag bearer is nice Greek girl! Why can’t you find girl like that?”
~Yia Yias everywhere
“She has good hips. Bear many strong children. (smack upside head)”
“Plus she have job! Maybe too good for you!”
Fuck yeah kayaking!
I’m completely serious. I love it
Kayaking is a blast.
Kayaking in the ocean gives you a real sense of just how fucking tiny you are.
I just go the lazy route and reupload them to postimages.com. usually put a 31 day limit on it
Also, time to update the hamster wheel that powers DFO, because they’re no longer the Cleveland Indians
The smartest folks on the Inters* thought that Mactavish would be available at the 10 spot. He was drafted much, much earlier.
*buncha Senators commenters
Awfully lot of Wings fans were jerking themselves off over that guy, too. Me? I never trust a Scot.
Wha problem ye have wit us Scots?
I once paid a MacDonnell 3 bits for a goat, but it was clear he’d already used it!
They have to start with https, and end with either .gif, .jpg or .png. Ending in .jpeg will not work.
LOL
upside down Oriole looks like Conan O’Brien
May I present Alica Schmidt, German Sprinter?
She takes her vitamins.

Sexy Olympians eh? Balls, you got anyway contact me?
I can’t find the dfo slack
I’ll send you an email.
Fun Fact: Seattle just joined the league, but there are still only 31 picks in the first round of this year’s draft because Arizona lost their pick for deflating pucks or something.
They just fleeced the Canucks out of theirs by trading them a petulant Swede & keeping 12% of his salary on their books.
Today it is my turn to sit on the tarmac during a ground hold!
Seth Jones to Chicago, oh my!

Incredible and still far better than that asshole deserves.
I adore the simplicity of it.
