Saturday Night Off-season Open Thread 1

It’s funny how you forget you volunteered for shit when you get older and then you realize you only have a half an hour left until your assignment is due and at the very least you’re wearing underwear but not much else.

But I digress.

In these Off-season Open Threads, I’ll sum up the week that was, provide you with TMI-style information, and throw some random spaghetti at the wall and see if it sticks.

***

Has anyone actually thrown spaghetti at a wall? Does it actually stick to the wall? I’m really curious as to whether that works or not but I’m not about to try it at my house.

Anyone willing to be a guinea pig and report back?

I just finished my latest workout program and I’m testing out my strength. So far, I have new PR’s in bench press and deadlift. Tomorrow I test Squats.

***

I have begun the retirement countdown at work. Granted, we’re at four years right now, but my GiveAShit seems to be broken. I’ve taken Tuesday off to make it a Four Day Weekend because why the fuck not?

I’m with the Millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha on the work life balance stuff. Life is too short to make it all about work.

To answer BFC’s comment from the other day when I requested post topics:

Balls takes up curling

While that sounds like a lot of fun, I live in LA. I think I have a better chance of finding a swingers party that will allow single men than I do finding somewhere that has curling. However, for you BFC, I will try.

Balls revisits the LA live music scene

Not at these prices. Have you seen the cost of a concert ticket these days? I’ll leave that to Yeah Right or Son Of Spam. They seem like concert goers

Balls tries to get a job as an executive producer for an adult video company

You say that like I’m not already in the biz. The truth is that you don’t get a job like that, you create it for yourself. Basically, I’d need to find talent, get a crew, shoot it myself, and figure out the distribution. That’s a lot of money and effort. Have you seen the economics of the adult industry? I’m better off buying land in the Salton Sea and waiting for the lithium boom.

Balls creates/talks his lady into creating an only fans

See above. The only problem with that scenario is that everyone would be paying to see my penis in action. I’m as proud of it as anyone, but that’s not Peter North down there.

I did, however, write a post about college football realignment per Blax’ request. Look for that on Wednesday morning.

***

I am going to get into the AFL again and try to write the weekly updates. Thank you to BFC for handling those last year. The problem with the AFL lately is that they’ve gotten NFL disease and there are games almost every day of the week now. That makes it hard to write weekly posts at a set time and day.

BFC, maybe you and I can work together on this? I’m sure some weeks will be better for you than me and vice versa. Have your people call my people.

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