Random Night Open Thread – for a rainy day Part Deux

BktGhodCAAAjSMx.jpg

Turns out today is LITERALLY a Rainy Day here in LA. Who knew?

As the fallout from yesterday’s games is coming through, here are a few things to note:

***

Jason Kelce is the better Kelce brother. He’s a big adorable teddy bear, has a hot wife, and is incredibly funny. It’s really too bad the Eagles choked so badly this year.

***

Taylor Swift is only pretending to like Mahomes’ wife just to keep the peace and not make waves. However, you can tell she’s annoying her big time. If there’s a song coming from all this hullabaloo, it’s about her.

***

The Packers and Bucs both ended their seasons on interceptions thrown by their QBs as they were trying to win the game in the dying seconds. That does not bode well for the future. You want an incompletion, a drop, something. But not an interception. Questions should be getting asked about those QBs.

***

As predicted by moi, Mike Tomlin is not going anywhere. Not only that, he’s getting an extension. So, all the haters can

***

I’m assuming there are sports on tonight, but honestly I don’t care. Enjoy your Monday night!

Balls somehow lost his bio and didn't realize it. He's now scrambling to write something clever and failing. He likes butts, boobs, most things that start with the letter B, and writing in the Second Person. Geelong, Toluca, Barcelona, and Steelers, in that order.

it’s less than 90 minutes to my birthday, Pacific time.

I’m okay that nobody will care. Until five years ago I didn’t care either.

Mr. Ayo

Happy Birthday, sailor

Happy Birthday Brother

Gumbygirl

Happy Birthday Eve! I’ll sing to you tomorrow, I don’t think I’m going to stay awake until midnight.

Gumbygirl

I am older than you, I get sleepy!

To take a friend’s greeting, BIRTHDAY DAMMIT

WCS

Congrats on your latest lap around Sol.

rockingdog

Found a funny;

It probably feels so good to flip up your headset mic to yell at someone on the field and then flip it back down to talk to the boys in the booth

Gumbygirl

I’m betting they forget to flip it up when they are yelling and the boys in the booth have blasted eardrums!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

And occasionally they forget to flip it up and it doesn’t matter because the player they’re yelling at is Jason Pierre-Paul, who also has blasted eardrums!

SonOfSpam

So Karl Anthony Towns put up 62 in a loss, and he’s only the 2nd highest scorer tonight.

Embiid put up seventii.

Mr. Ayo

THIS KOSTYUK I CALL CHERNOBYL BECAUSE THEY ARE TWO HUGE UKRANIAN MELTDOWNS

SonOfSpam

CA Senate debate tonight. 3 Dems (Barbara Lee, Katie Porter, Adam Schiff) and Republican Steve Garvey. Yes, that Steve Garvey. He was asked whether he’d vote for Trump in November and he gave a long-winded non-answer. Katie Porter then said, “Once a Dodger, always a Dodger.”

Anyway, Schiff’s gonna win which will anger MAGA chodes the most. So that’s cool.

SonOfSpam

She’s somewhere south of Garvey numbers, but she has her good qualities.

Katie Porter is apparently an unlikeable loner in the House. Hey maybe that’s not true, but her support from fellow congresspeople is nonexistent.

Gumbygirl

Her whiteboard game is fierce. I like that she is not afraid to put people on blast, but she’s not good on the campaign trail. I think it will be Schiff, and I’m fine with that. Barbara Lee is too old.

Doktor Zymm

Barbara Lee is the best though

SonOfSpam

The age thing is a problem, especially since
1) Senate’s a six year term
b) We have other options
next) You can’t vote for a woman you don’t wanna screw, it’s science

SonOfSpam

She’s probably my 2nd choice. I like Katie Porter being a thorn in the GOP’s side, but she has no friends in Congress, and I think the “she treats her staff like shit” stories are true. Lee is a little more squad-adjacent than I’d like.

Thankfully Garvey ruined my childhood hero worship a looooooong time ago.

SonOfSpam

What about an old rapey TV game show trust fund narcissist who’s as stupid as he is honest?

SonOfSpam

Dishonest. Sorry, I’m a stupid baby and we need the most attention.

Gumbygirl

You’re a cute lil’ nipper though!

2Pack

Yeah… Duh…

Sharkbait

Mrs Sharkbait is doing a Homicide re- watch. The exterior shots of the police station is a hotel that arsenal stayed at when DFO east met up. Across the street from that hotel is where a flag

Sharkbait

Due to national security concerns, the rest of the comment has been redacted.

SonOfSpam

(the word “flag” was a typo and he already said too much)

Senor Weaselo

It’s weird, it’s not like he even mentioned Candle Jack or anyth

2Pack

Yeah Balls… Marika is back to the drawing board… trying to figure out how this season has been so disappointing…

My sleep schedule is entirely fucked. Staying up late playing Civ should fix that, right?

Sharkbait

Just one more turn.

“Rock-bottom FICO scores, no income verification . . . ”

Hey hold on a sec here fellas, that sounds like me . . .

(except for the “living in Florida” part)

SonOfSpam

SO MANY OF THOSE PEOPLE GOT $500-$700k MORTGAGES..

Can’t believe it fell apart.

How I deal with most things. I crank up a tune.

I look forward to the well-reasoned and detailed response from Blax:

Here’s one of the greatest scenes in movie history. Jeremy Irons just kills it.

Sharkbait

Underrated movie as a whole

SonOfSpam

I preferred The Big Short because bathtub.

Having worked in the mortgage tech industry during the crash, I have deep hatred for many many people and can only be calmed by imagining heads on pikes.

BugEyedBoo

I hunt it up on YouTube about once a month.

Horatio Cornblower

Apparently the Kelces already have three kids.

The idea of this man running amok on various Little League fields over the next several years chasing after four kids seems like a scenario for boundless hilarity.

“Hey ump…that dad up there is screaming with no shirt on and pounding a beer!”

“Uh, yeah, he’s allowed to do that.”

Game Time Decision

I think that she was a D1 athlete as well, so it might be both yelling at the officials

Redshirt

(15 years later)

“Why is there a shirtless guy doing a keg stand at midfield?”
“That’s one of the kid’s father just showing their pride.”
“But its a Marching Band Halftime Show.”
“Yeah, but in his defense she really nailed that flute solo.”

I recently had a dream about vintage record company logos.

Okay, that part is probably normal; I had just read an article about that.

The weird part was: You were all in it.

That last part was really fucked up.

Game Time Decision

Don’t forget Big Ass Fans

Horatio Cornblower

I hope I was CEO of Island Records. I’d do a better job.

Mr. Ayo

No, that was Bill

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

No, that was his father. Brian Callahan seems to be more of the Shanahan variety son as opposed to the Reid family tree type.

Redshirt

Though he was QB Coach for Oakland in 2018.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

He was, but I assume moving to Cincinnati was a promotion, not due to getting fired.

Redshirt

The Lombardi that sits in Rams HQ in Agora Hills begs to differ.

Horatio Cornblower

Doesn’t really matter. Hiring the Callahan boy seems like a recipe for disaster.

“The point is, Tee, how do you know the green grass isn’t as green as they say it is. Mike Tomlin offers you a guarantee for $100 million, Super Bowl ring, and a fine Steelers Tradition but that’s how it starts. Next thing you know, Roethlisberger’s hanging out at your house often, there’s money missing from your dresser and your daughter’s knocked up. I’ve seen it happen a hundred times.”

King Hippo

I keep having dreams about ex-girlfriends. I really, really do not enjoy that. But my brain is right to hate me, I totally get it.

Horatio Cornblower

Those are whatever, but the ones I could do without are the ones where it’s finals week and my last exam is some kind of math class but I wouldn’t know because I never opened the book or went to the class, but for some reason I’m trying to find where the exam is because I think I have a shot at passing it.

That dream can fuck right off.

Gumbygirl

I had an A going into my stats final. I choked, big time, and ended up with a C. I still dream about it, just horrible!

yeah right

Mahomes wife was on the “Quarterback” show and I noticed that she really looks like she enjoys extra drinks and also looks exactly like the type of person you very much don’t enjoy being near when they’ve had extra drinks.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

quarterback more like knocks-em-back amirite?

Horatio Cornblower

Not gonna lie, she seems fun.

Gumbygirl

I noticed during the game that every time anything exciting happened, she was front and center for the tv cameras. At one point, Taylor was hugging her, and she practically spun her whole head around to be facing the camera.
