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:
There can be no good without evil [in bed].
Russian proverb
Remember to have and use a safe word if it gets too much for ya. Or nightmares suck
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.
LOVED that terrible call against Minkah Fitzpatrick late in the 4th last night and the camera guy catching his chef’s kiss EXQUISITE pouty face afterwards. I only wish the ref would’ve announced, “PERSONAL FOUL! NUMBER 20! FOR LAST WEEK IN CLEVELAND! BECAUSE THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS NEED TO FUCKING LEARN THAT THE REST OF THE COUNTRY IS NOT INTERESTED IN WATCHING THEM CHEAP SHOT ALL THE SKILL POSITION PLAYERS OUT OF THE LEAGUE SO THEY CAN WIN TEN GAMES IN UNWATCHABLE FASHION. AS I AM CALLING THIS PENALTY, THE LOBBIES AND ELEVATOR SHAFTS OF EVERY HOTEL ON THE STRIP ARE BEING FUMIGATED FROM THE STENCH OF THE DEER BALONEY FARTS OF THE ONLY MONSTERS ON THE PLANET WHO WOULD CELEBRATE THIS TERRORIST ORGANIZATION! FUCK THEM, AND MAY THE NEXT RYAN SHAZIER DIE ON THE FIELD! FIFTEEN YARDS, AUTOMATIC FIRST DOWN!!”

Today is my birthday. Gumby sang to me, and did an interpretive dance. It was stunning! What am I doing for fun, you ask? I took all the greasy filters off my microwave/ exhaust fan. I’m pretty sure this is original to the house, circa 2004. Equally sure it’s never been cleaned before. I turned it on when we first moved here, and it wasn’t exhausting, so I just figured it was broken, and haven’t tried it since. Turns out it’s not broken, just disgusting. I am living la vida loca!

Happy Birthday.

If you had to pick Trestman, Fox, Nagy, or Eberflus to properly purchase 15 items on shopping list at your local Jewel (or “Jewels” per proper Chicagoland nomenclature), who would you pick?
- Trestman would probably start strong but be distracted by the 11 year-old shopping with her mother and try to lure her to his “Trestvan”.
- Fox would get everything in the cart, head up front to check out, but would challenge whether or not an item was properly scanned, and the item would revert back to the shelf. Plus, he’s old and sucks and would get lost.
- Nagy would get 10 items in the cart, freak out and shit himself and ask the frightened shoppers around him to figure out the “whys” (insofar as he shit himself).
- Eberflus would smile and talk to a random person in the parking lot and then inadvertently walk into traffic.

I need to find a spot in the US, potentially in Chicago, that shows rugby. I just had so much fun watching NZ completely beat down Italy, and I kinda love how there is no garbage time and no shame in running up the score. The NFL was some weird puritan hangups for a league that’s totally cool with maiming players, overt racism, and making women apologize for being hit.

Gumby and I just celebrated our birthdays at Melvyn’s in Palm Springs. It was great, old school in the best way. Waiters firing up Steak Diane, Cherries Jubilee, Bananas Foster tableside. Completely shitfaced old guys belting out Frank Sinatra tunes along with the lounge singer. A beautifully dressed old broad pitching backwards off her barstool ( not me) many, many sugar babies and their daddies. Lots of fake tits and some truly scary facelifts. I loved it!

So I’ve been cooking for about 50 years and I’ve been cooking for y’all motherfuckers about 10.
That roast pork that I had in Portugal humbled me.
Humbled me HARD.

I really want a pork sandwich.

Tough week, this. TBH, I spent September being overly snide at work and “Again?! [sigh]” in my family obligations. But hey, if it ain’t broke, yadda yadda yadda.

Greetings, fellow empire builders! I understand that our colleagues over in the Upper and Lower Canadas are in the midst of recognizing a “National Day for Truth and Reconciliation” for uncivilized tribal peoples. Are they insinuating that I should give back all of my diamonds? If so, it looks like I’m not the only one that has enjoyed a few glasses of firewater today!

If the GOP had any balls, they’d vote to strip Gaetz and his bottom feeders of their committee seats before the sun sets.
Call me crazy but I’d not be surprised if this stunt gets Gaetz expelled from Congress (via the ethics investigation they’ve got open on him).

… and behold, what I did (well, one of the things. I’m too lazy to do decent photos of the M113, the Lend-Lease Sherman or the Challenger II) instead of going to that museum Brick keeps mentioning, Not bad for something made using a SwissCard (basically, a swiss army knife, but in a credit-card form factor), basic paints and a brush. Thank jebus I’m not flying commercial, or those antennas won’t survive the TSA and baggage handling.
By the way, there appears to be proper footy going on, because Arsenal just scored against Lens.
Solid job RTD.
Solid!

See? This is comedy gold.
I can’t tell if you’re a helicopter pilot, a commando, a spook, or an IT guy.
I’m just a half-dead old submarine veteran.
Fill me in, bro. Let’s be friends.
IT guy by day (mostly, also do day-trading since it’s better than gambling and slightly less rigged), part-time military analyst an’ helicopter pilot (with my initial billet being mechanized light infantry. The helicopter thing was just supposed to be a peacetime hobby, but the green weenie thought ohterwise). Economist and politician by training (yes, really. I had the good fortune of getting a bachelor’s in Economics and Politics just in time for the ’08 meltdown). Also a card-carrying electrician, though I can do everythin’ construction outside of plumbing (working construction since like 6th grade helped with that and also with getting me into shape). Ah, and certified warcrime when it comes to Karaoke singing 😀
What can I say, growing up in Eastern Europe gets one to diversify one’s skillset, since “adapt or die” is a way of life for those of us that wanted to escape to a better life 😀
I swear, we get the most interesting people in this little corner of the Internet.
Ah, forgot – I also am a decent cook outside of making fancier cakes (since in a bit of irony, I don’t have the right eye for detail despite my main actual, normal-person hobby is making scale models) 😀
Baking involves too much fiddly math for me. If you don’t use precise measurements, you’re screwed. Also, if your house is too humid, or your clock runs fast, or your wearing the wrong shoes, or…
Oh, no, that part is a blast. I don’t have the patience to properly decorate the cakes*. Also, I think I know what you’re missing with your baking – you need Led Zeppelin or Deep Purple going at full blast from a decent sound system. Those also help with doing the dishes (even the aftermath of your spouse’s burnt roast) and with one’s tax returns!
*again, which I admit is odd, given that my hobby entails doing the exact same, but for pieces of plastic 😀
I play loud music when I clean. I’m partial to punk for that, especially the Ramones and the Clash. I love to cook, and I seldom measure anything for that. Oddly enough, I have a ridiculous amount of measuring utensils for someone who eyeballs it. I have four different liquid measuring cups, two sets of the ones you use for solids, and a bajillion measuring spoons.
I have unhealthy amount of those too, but nowadays I stick to a laminated annotated* conversion table (ie x cups of normal flower = y grams, or 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil being ~27 grams), so I can quickly use a digital scale and spoon to have repeatable proportions. Also, oddly, the measuring cups I use most are from a painting supply store, since unlike the cooking ones they have all sorts of mix ratios and scales printed on ’em 🙂
ie – that a baseline 5 grams of salt per liter of soup seems to be the golden middle for all our tastes (I like less salty, wifey moar and the kiddos are in the middle)
See? This is great!
But dude, just avoid the run-on sentences and you’ll be okay.
I know I should, but then again – why should I suffer my stream of consciousness alone, when I can share the pain? 😀
I think you have to refresh. It’s weird and we really don’t know what’s happening half the time.
You have an idea what’s happening as much as half the time?
Well…. that’s a Mexican half so….
See if hitting F5 fixes it. I have to do that every time I log in. Go to the post and hit F5. Hopefully that’ll work.
Usually F5 helps me too, but since I was getting it on 4 separate devices ( 3 Windows, 1 Android), I kinda assumed a time-out/ban was at hand 🙂
Four for me too, in exactly the same way. 3 Windows, 1 Android. Oh well.

Ha, I watched Escape From New York a couple of days ago. Adrienne Boobeau for the win!
*tyre screech* Someone remade Escape From LA and set in New York? Nice. Who’s the poor bastard they got to be a pale imitation of Kurt Russell?
Kurt Russell.
…I am confused, yet intrigued and somehow perusing Wikipedia and realizing that EfNY predates EfLA, yet the latter isn’t quite a sequel doesn’t make any less confused. WIll watch it, tho, so thanks for mentioning that movie.
Ok, it’s official – auto-correct is bonkers on this tablet, because I typed “doesn’t make things any less confusin’ “. There’s one simple step to take now – nuke things from orbit and restore things from a known good backup. Grrrrrrr

My goodness, I thought you were kidding!
I thought so too!
About Escape From New York? Nope – I never knew it was a thing, unlike Escape From LA which was a stable on cable movie channels (alongside the underrated gem that is Soldier)

I once read an interview with Adrienne Barbeau where she said she honestly didn’t understand why guys were attracted to her.
