Your (Hopefully and Likely) Penultimate SNF Thread

It seems almost certain we get a Week 18 fixture, since Bills Mafia at LOLfins will be for the AFC East crown.  But we take nothing for granted here at DFO.  Eagerly await that schedule announcement, which is really the only good reason for watching…

Packers (+1) at Vikings (8:20, NBC)

Nobody wants to see this, though supporters of each will mostly hope to stay alive in playoff contention.  Not like either squadron belongs in the tourney, but somebody’s got to claim that 7 seed (RRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!! having punched their ticket this afternoon).  Minnesota turns back to Jalen Hall as their “chip and a chair” play.  You last remember Mr. Hall getting Trent Green’d in his initial career start, sparking the outer space fairy tale of Josh “Black Powder” Dobbs.  He has Justin Jefferson this go around, so I suspect he will find MOAR success.

Everyone can throw on Green Bay, who also have their top CB suspended (for the weirdest scenario I can recall).  They also have, like, 3 of their top WR out with injuries.  This should really be quite the shitshow, as The Shield continues its world domination plan (by pulling in the Germans).

It seemed like total bullshit this matchup didn’t get flexed for Balmer/Miami…but then again, that fixture finished 56-19 (Scorigami!!).  One just really never knows.  See you in the comments.  Or tomorrow, for National Hangover Day.

Meanwhile, Gumbygirl and Gumby continue to wait outside with tickets to Rockin’ Eve 2014.

I hear The Cult is opening for The Cure. Or the other way around. I’m sure it doesn’t matter.

Gumbygirl

I can’t even blame him for this, he’s asleep on the couch.

ballsofsteelandfury

This is my favourite Go quote. Very true:

You know what wakes me up in the middle of the night covered in a cold sweat? Knowing that you aren’t any worse than anyone else in your whole screwed up generation. In the old days, you know how you got to the top? Huh? By being better than the guy ahead of you. How do you people get to the top? By being so fucking incompetent, that the guy ahead of you can’t do his job, so he falls on his ass and congratulations, you are now on top. And now the top is down here, it used to be up here… and you don’t even know the fucking difference.

yeah right

Let’s keep doing this a’ight?

Love you crazy motherfuckers.

seriously, these Potter movies are ridiculous. “Oh, the Muggles can’t handle our power so we have to stay secret and apart!”

Me, a Muggle (locking and loading a .50 caliber chain gun: “Dumbass says ‘what’?

Agreed. When the played that new Beatles song, everyone was treating it like they found something amazing while I was hearing an old recording of a song that would be Track 6 on a CD at best.

Horatio Cornblower

John Lennon, noted wife beater.

Also the Beatles are highly overrated in terms of music. Influence no, but music very much so.

jjfozz

oh boy arewe on the right page, guck thos e guys, and that fuck lennon is a fcuk. he fucked up his son so much. i would have kneed him in the goddamnn ballsi fi weve rmet his stupid shitty limeyy ass

Brocky

Fuck John lennon for actually making me feel sorry for that waste of space yoko onno!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Good night, 2023. You were a perfectly fine year to me, but I wish you’d been a little nicer to other people. Please ask 2024 to improve in that regard.

Redshirt

For perspective, 2020 involved a Global Pandemic and 2021 had the Washington Redneck Teabag Party. The bar is set incredibly low to begin with.

jjfozz

i like it but fuck this new year cause it’s gonna fuck us all, i mean no trying to bee negative, aut fuck

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

When you said “B negative” I thought you were talking about the blood type of one of the guys that Ray Lewis stabbed in Atlanta all those years ago.

Another funny, in the purview of Rockingdog’s Blues Clues SVU:

Dora the Explorer, but she’s a migrant making her way across Central America to the Southern US Border. In this context, Swiper can be the Drug Cartels and Border Patrol and ICE as they separate families at the border.

Okay, that got too dark very quicky.

Brocky

As is my yearly tradition, I am being forced to swaddle my shih tzu due to its rational fear of loud fireworks

The fact it’s a male shih tzu somehow makes it funnier

We have a friend from Whiting! He had like 11 kids in his high school graduating class, and I’m pretty sure they combined two years. He was on Gumby’s first submarine.

“And there’s The Family Circus, just waiting to fucking suck.”

If there’s a better line in a movie I don’t know it.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Go was a fantastic 90’s movie, one of the most representative ones I can think of.

WCS

Definitely had the late-90s feel to it.

Last funny;

Blues Clues SVU

It’s an advanced version of Blue’s Clues with more complicated clues and darker storylines.

Happy New Year to the only group of degens, (some indeed from up north), who keep me watching the NFL. Time to hammer home another 8%+ beer and wake up with regrets, as Xenu itself intended.
