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. Seriously. There isn’t.

This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:
In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years [in bed].
Abraham Lincoln

So, go nap when tired. Hopefully you being in bed is sleeping or other fun activities and not being sick.

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.


I can’t believe he’s still hanging around here but I’ll take a shot at Aaron Hernandez [in the TE draft]. He had that real killer instinct you want in a player, doesn’t matter if it’s friend or foe, he’d take them out.

You know, with murder.

Canuck ladies soccer squadoo was so bad this morning. The keeper was…I just don’t know what she was doing as far as positioning. I’m not saying the Canucks could have won. No Way. But they could have done better than the final result. Sinclair needs to hang up the cleats, Beckie needs to recover from injury and a re-set is in order.

One night on patrol, I was looking for suitable fording sites along a stretch of river. That involved walking around in the friggin river at 3 in the morning. Heading back to the patrol base, as point man, I hit a German cow catcher strand of electrified wire, at dick level, in wet pants. You remember things like that.

Fun story about local radio.

So the host asked a former NFL player (HOX legend Hugh Millen) about his thoughts on concussions and CTE.

Well Hugh Miller, he had some thoughts and delivered.

He started with the analogy about chopping wood. He said if you don’t normally use your hands, say golfing 3 times a week, you’d chew up your hands chopping that wood. Because you see, you’d have calluses on your hands to protect them.

He then extrapolated that to taking shots to the head in practice. He thinks we may look back at this time and realize we made a mistake by not having moar head hits in the offseason to develop a proper brain callus that could withstand a football season.

He definitely has a brain callus.

Today I learned that ChatGPT does NAWT speak Hippoese, I asked for a preview of this game in hippoese and got this:
“In a grand celebration of mighty gridiron warriors, the NFL Hall of Fame Game is set to begin in the magnificent land of Hippoese! Gather ’round, all you wild hippos, as we witness the clash of champions from seasons past. The air is thick with excitement as these football giants gather to showcase their strength and skill in a spectacle like no other.
Amidst the roaring fans, you will witness legends of the past stepping onto the hallowed turf once more. The echoes of their triumphs resonate through the savannah, as they come together to honor their greatness and immortalize their names in the Hall of Fame. These colossal beings, each with a story of valor and perseverance, are ready to leave their indelible mark in the annals of Hippoesean history.”

Unrelated, since I’m done with my last project meant to help me deal with my untreated chronic insomnia… What should I do next?
A Leopard 2A6 (potentially a war trophy one), a M113 ACAV (definitely a trophy), an upgunned Bren carrier (with a Ma Deuce instead of the peashooter) or spend the money I’ve earmarked for losing bets and get me moar kits.
the last socially acceptable one being this bugger (a couple of others followed it, but the … accurate inscriptions on the BMP-3 and BMD-4M are potentially bannable offences here)

Unrelated, since I’m done with my last project meant to help me deal with my untreated chronic insomnia… What should I do next?

I have a suggestion, but the first rule is that I’m not supposed to talk about it.

Another idea is to make soap out of human liposuction waste.

bk109

Given that one of the other options on the table is to see if one can truly make a FPV drone with an useful payload so cheaply.. That and/or looking wistfully at listings on certain obscure web sites for “surplus gear” like the Ex-Norwegian M109 for 25grand (that’s available for self-pickup from Moldova), or a lot of M113’s and YPRs from Lithuania

bk109

Does it matter? You’ll look cool for the 3 city blocks until you return the Mustang to its natural state – wrapped around an utility pole. Seriously though, “2 weeks of baggage” can mean a lot of things, from an assault pack-style bag (and a separate laptop bag) to the 5 piece instant hernia I have to carry for my wife, so the answer is “depends”.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Given how popular they are with the newly-enlisted in this country, it actually wouldn’t surprise me a bit if there was at least room for the 2 car seats.

Doktor Zymm

It’s an American car, so the answer is yes and you probably also have room for a large dog and a 24-pack of shitty beer

Speaking of shitty beer, my $20 check from InBev arrived today! Not sure whether I should spend it on one $20 beer or twenty $1 beers.

That’s nice and all, but there’s Champion’s League football today. Admittedly, it’s the “Who the fuck are even these teams?!” qualification round.. And sure, half the stadiums look like they double as cow pastures or local high schools’ overflow parking… but still, it’s Champions league football!

apparently some arsehole died at one of those qualifiers today! Whether or not a stabbing, the headline did not say.

Why haven’t you taken your tank in defense of Ukraine??

… Why would I want to do that? Unlike (I’m assuming) most of the commentariat here, I’ve actually had the dubious pleasure of repeatedly dealing with Ukrainians (including in-country after the 24th) so if I had to pick a side… Let’s put it like that – it won’t be the side that’s honouring the same cunts that lynched several of my great uncles, because they mistook them for Jews.

Because I’m concerned about potential blowback against my family as the EU’s gone a tad 1984-y (including people getting unpersoned for being tangentially connected to Russia). If I didn’t have Anna and kids, I wouldn’t have to worry about that. At this point, I’m even actively tempted to emigrate to Russia (so long as I can keep my toys), to spend my early retirement on a nice big-ass farm somewhere east of the Urals as soon the current events end.

On a brighter note – it’s a fan brawl between AEK and Dinamo Zagreb, so stabbing’s a safe bet, though blunt force trauma or explosive mishaps are also plausible 🙂

EDIT: … WAIT, MY TANK?! What am I, a serf? tankS (and depending on one’s POV, the BMP can be considered a light tank too), though admittedly the Chiefy’s not running yet (because British engineering’s as about as overrated as the Krauts’)

Probably. Lemme tell you something about Gumby. He will stand in front of an open refrigerator, and ask where the milk is. The milk that’s sitting on the shelf right in front of him. So this Cure/Cult fiasco came as no real surprise to me.

DJ TAJ

I have seen both and one is significantly better than the other. The Cult sucked, Lenny Kravitz opened for them and he sucked. Quick story, during one of the first couple of (didn’t stay long) songs singer Ian Mcsucky was prancing around and flinging his very impressive man mullet about which prompted the girl sitting next to me turn to her girlfriend and yell, “I will never cut my hair again”. I think the statement speaks for itself.
