Subsequent GTD reflections

Hello there fellow DFO’er.  Hope you’re well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks comments of the week as decided by my brain.  There’s no reason as to why some comments make it and others don’t.  

Welcome to Winter for those of youz in the Northern Hemisphere. For all those in the southern hemisphere, [In your best Olaf voice] Welcome to Summer. I assume we have some Southern Hemisphere readers, which makes me think that I have a) no clue where most of yallz are from and b) that I really should learn how to write better. It’s the solstice, so either get lots of sun or like none. Hoping that what little sun we do get in the next few days doesn’t melt the snow so we get a white Christmas. The snow can then go away until next Christmas it it were up to me. Team sick of shovelling already, here. I get with climate change that snow on the ground for Christmas is going to be a rarer and rarer event, but hey I can want a postcard looking Christmas outside.

There are NFL games tonight. I guess it’s better than last year when they made some team ( Browns?, Bengals?, I can’t recall and a quick search does nothing) play with the back ups to the backups due to the Covids but without moving the kick off time. While I hope the players and coaches all recover and without issues, I want a game tomorrow as well, so we get football every night for awhiles. Cause why not?

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. Note that during the offseason, I’ll probably look at the Sunday posts.

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


DR. MRS. DEADLY: I bought some glass spray bottles for the master bathroom.

RIKKI: Intentionally bringing glass into a place where we are often barefoot is very dangerous please let’s not do this.

DR. MRS. DEADLY: No, no, it’ll be fine.

RIKKI: I don’t normally argue this strongly about things but this is a very terrible idea, please no.

DR. MRS. DEADLY: I like the way it looks. We’re doing it.

You’ll never guess what happened today!

I was still impressed by the Bears managing to suck less than the vacuum of space for almost a whole half!

While I hope we don’t end up with the Narrative Bowl, if such a horribl thing happens I will be firmly on the side of Darth Hoodie. The announcing set a new record for insufferableness, even just in the bits shown on Red Zone.

The league (and colleges and probably high schools) needs to provide actual medical care to players, not just painkiller injections and orthopeaedic surgery when players can’t actually stand, even with the good drugs. You shouldn’t have elite athletes dying of seizures at 33, just like you shouldn’t have medical staff ignoring tumors, or rheumatologists in charge of head injury procedures. Whatever happened with that 2017 lawsuit? I’m guessing fuck all. The players would be better off buying their own health insurance off the Obamacare exchanges than going with the Hollywood Upstairs Medical School care provided on the job.

The more painting I get done, the more I realize how little care or effort the shitty professional painters put in. Today I painted behind the radiators, where they didn’t bother to paint. How did I accomplish this epic task? I WENT TO THE HARDWARE STORE AND BOUGHT A MINI ROLLER FOR $3, THEN DIPPED IT IN PAINT AND MOVED IT UP AND DOWN ON THE WALL.

The NHL is really bringing it today. The Blackhawks lawyer (remember that sexual assault thing?) released a statement saying, ” The parties are pleased to announce that today’s mediation resulted in a confidential settlement between the Blackhawks and Kyle Beach.” Otherwise known as, “We paid Beach a fuckton of money so that he can never talk about his dreadful experience and he can’t even say anything about the wording of this press release either, sucker.”

Mr. Ayo

Not going to be surprised when we find out this guy’s name was Brocky.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. – A person is dead after he was involved in multiple accidents on I-5 near Lake Samish.

Washington State Patrol (WSP) troopers say the first crash happened around 6:30 a.m. when the victim rolled his vehicle in the northbound lanes of I-5 near Lake Samish.

The person was able to get out of his car but another vehicle then hit him.

Emergency crews got to the scene and put the victim in an ambulance to go to the hospital. However, the ambulance was soon also hit.

WSP said none of the crew members were injured but another aid car was needed to rush the victim to the hospital.

The victim, only described as ‘he’ at this point, was pronounced deceased at the hospital.

After the Omega Tau variant runs its course, I’d be amenable to a DFOCon.

I second DFOCon: Superb Owl edition in Vegas.

I third. I would like to actually meet everyone if possible. Just please don’t let it be like highschool where the cool kids would say to meet at one place and they would actually meet up somewhere else. It was so cold…, and lonely…., and there were wolves…..

It was crueler this way, which made it much more attractive. You tell someone they don’t want you to go, it only lasts for a few moments, ditch them and your sadistic fun lasts the entire night.

and THAT is how Armed and Hammered ended up at North Carolina State University!

I just found out I gotta pay a $10K repair job when my hybrid car reaches 100,000 miles. I’m still doing research to confirm but if true, expect a profane venting post with the details.

Horatio Cornblower

That can’t possibly be right. Who would buy such a ca…(reads thread of Elon Musk fanboys defending his highly flammable cars that can’t distinguish a fire truck from the fucking road)…Oh. Oh dear.

Redshirt

Those same fanboys would defend me spending $10,000 to replace the lithium-ion battery on a six year old car worth $7,000, just to continue to save $375 a year.

Plus even if I do replace it and it lasts to 200,000 miles, I gotta spend another $10,000 on a twelve year old car worth $1,500.

If this is what hybrids and electric cars are worth, the planet is screwed.

ballsofsteelandfury

For $10k, you might as well buy a new car

Horatio Cornblower

I suspect that’s the whole plan.

Doktor Zymm

Would you be amenable to purchasing a car that runs off a tiny nuclear reactor? You would only have to replace the teensy fuel rods every couple of hundred years or so!

I might be able to work something out, I can check up to 3 bags free

yeah right
