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. Seriously. There isn’t.
This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:
Do all the good you can, for all the people you can, in all the ways you can, as long as you can [in bed]
Hillary Clinton
Just going to hibernate until the spring then.
As a reminder, 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.

For those of you counting at home, that’s 7 losses in a row for the Bears, one away from tying their franchise record losing streak. Hosting the Bills and then at the Lions, they’ve got a good shot to break that record like it’s 70s disco demolition night at Comiskey.

SO the ending of the game sucked, but this is pretty good

A year ago I was scraping bottom. Almost at the end of rope. I had just fucked up on the biggest freelance project I had on my books.
Friday I got a killer performance review, bonus, and a raise. And a nice box of gifts from my employer.
On Saturday I beat my old boss into unconsciousness with my grandmother’s rolling pin.
So yeah, good couple of days.

I really don’t understand why you don’t watch the games on mute.
I have the Manningcast on one screen. Toluca v América on another. Both have closed captioning. And I have music playing.

I have something I call a “Murphy’s Law Squeeze Play” which is basically a way of tricking the universe into giving you what you want by turning it into something you don’t really want. Yeah Right causing his Vikings to pull off the greatest comeback in NFL history is a pretty good example of how it works. By making it so he wouldn’t be able to watch the most important part of the game, he ensured that the Vikings would actually come away with the spectacular victory.

Also still in. And I went shopping at a mall with my wife and didn’t stop her from playing a Xmas carol channel in the car.

I just watched a movie called “The Enchanted Christmas Cake” and it didn’t actually involve a talking cake and yet I am still probably feeling 1/10 as disappointed as Jets fans right now.

As a reminder to the other drivers, slowing down to 15 MPM and putting on your flashers on a snow-covered highway doesn’t help the other drivers. On the contrary, it actually creates a hazardous situation as that causes us to bunch together and get impatient.
On the other side, going the posted speed limit when the other drivers are not is also bad. It causes the other drivers to react on covered roads and possibly hit a slick spot that they would’ve avoided had you not caused them to react. Moreover, the five cars spun out on the median and the ditch were caused by high speeds on the snow-covered roads. If you doubt me, feel free to try your luck.
Best try to keep up with the same speed as the other drivers while keeping extra, extra, extra distance between cars. Try to use the gas as little as possible and the brake even less; coasting down and using the covered road to slow you down while ensuring you remain in control.
This is your friend Redshirt, saying in the winter season and always, don’t forget the definition of Defensive Driving: driving with the knowledge that every other driver on the road is certifiably insane.
Redshirt
This is accurate

Okay everyone this is a public service annoucement. Be careful about drunk driving as we are getting close to Christmas and police are out there checking on people.
Last night I was out for a few drinks. One thing led to another and I had a few too many cocktails and then went onto the wine. Not a good idea.
Knowing I was over the limit, I decided to leave my car at the bar and took a bus home. Sure enough, I passed a police checkpoint where they were pulling over drivers and performing breathalyzer tests.
Because I was in a bus they just waved it past. I arrived home safely and without incident, which was a real surprise as I’ve never driven a bus before and I am not even sure where I got it from

There used to be a bar near UConn, about a mile from campus, called Thumper’s. Thumper’s had “Nickel Night” and “Quarter Night”, where for a $5 cover charge you could get all your drinks for, you guessed it, a nickel or quarter per drink. No craft beer and all liquor was bottom shelf, but they would never cut anyone off. I saw one person literally push his stool back from bar, vomit on the floor, and pull back up to the bar. No one blinked.
Given the proclivities of such an establishment, Thumper’s also took the precaution of having a bus. This bus would drive around campus, pick people up and bring them to Thumper’s, then drive them back. One night I left Thumper’s early, (was a girl involved? I leave that to your imagination, but the answer is no, I had to work early the next day), long before my roommates came back.
I wake up and start getting ready to go to work. And what do I see on one of the desks but the keys to the Thumper’s bus. Turns out my roommate Mike had not just swiped the keys, but the bus as well. He wasn’t sure what happened; I found out later from other people that they’d had a joyride a couple of parking lots over. He’d kept the keys. None of them knew how’d they’d gotten home.

First time lurker, longtime commenter, I don’t know how you all have the time for commenting. I read all the blogs but I can’t get to them until at least a few hours later. I have hilarious comments about everything* but I never post them because I’m always late. I’ll try and be better

Rudolph the red meat reindeer
Makes a very tasty steak
And if you’ve never tried it
You should soon fix that mistake
All of the other reindeer
Make for some good eatin’ too
Carrots and onions and Blitzen
Make a most delightful stew
Then one foggy Xmas eve
Santa came to say,
“Rudolph with your flesh so sweet
It’s you I’m going to slay for meat!”
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee,
“Rudolph the red meat reindeer,
Santa’s eating you not me!”

I got the best xmas present since a nintendo when I was 7 today.
Some of you know I am building a footy pub in my basement. Mrs. Cola bought me a wooden pub sign that says “The Pug and the Grasshopper Est 2022.”
I almost cried as it was a memory of Oxipug on a roadtrip back in the day. Thought I would share as we need positivity.

This Christmas is a memorable one. Beautiful gifts. I have my father a card that has his late mother’s signature on it. And my brother took one of our mother’s edibles and had a bad trip during gift exchange. He’s went through the confusion, fear, anger and paranoia stages and now in the subdued, slow-motion stage.
Seeing my parents talk him down is one of the highlights of all my Christmases.

JJ Watt is calling it quits after this season.
So I’m guessing Steve Keim is drafting up a 4YR/$56MIL contract extension for JJ.
Pretty sure the only thing Steve Keim is drafting up right now is a list of people he needs to make amends to.

What’s losers investment club doing about this Tesla spiral?
OJ futures?
They had actually invested in a competitor ($NIO) and had they held on for the long term would be up like 750% or something right now.

Should I apply for a job with the US Olympic committee? I’ve never bribed or molested anyone so I’m not sure I’m qualified
You can also get bribed.
As long as you are a frustrated athlete in the sport that you are judging… Yer good.
When all competitors question you, you are doing good work.
Looks like somebody making a head start on her New Year’s resolutions
You should apply for a job with the 2028 LA Olympics. I bet you they could use your skills.
Worth noting that the Bears did in fact tie that franchise record.
Next, they’ll try to break that record!
Hooray?
Well done GTD. Those holiday memories. And now… for something completely different…
