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 is no terror after the bang of the gun; only the anticipation in it [in bed].
Alfred Hitchcock
Not sure my safety blankie is bulletproof, but think we could market this.
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.
As God as my witness, the Alpha and the Omega of this [sitcom clip] draft is the WKRP Turkey Drop.

Can we re-introduce trial by ordeal? I just want the simple pleasure of watching Trump play Aztec deathball or similar against far superior competition.
Doktor Zymm
Hell, just have Balls play him at golf. I guarantee that Trump can play nowhere near 15 strokes of his claimed handicap.
Rikki-Tikki-Deadly
Golf is kinda missing the death aspect though, unless it’s speed golf and he has a heart attack running between holes. I would dig that.
Doktor Zymm
No cart, no caddy. He’d be dead by hole 3, tops.
Gumbygirl
Fuck Calgary. Dirty fucking assholes.
Mr. Ayo
This comment is valid both in relation to hockey and politics!

Today, I celebrated my 30th Anniversary in the golf business by not even thinking about work for the first time in like three months.

Been fucking with the Pollsters again, Brick? (or was that Gumby)
“For example, in a February 2022 survey experiment, we asked opt-in respondents if they were | licensed to operate a class SSGN (nuclear) submarine https://washstat.org/hansen/2022Kennedy.pdf|. In the opt-in survey, 12% of adults under 30 claimed this qualification, significantly higher than the share among older respondents. In reality, the share of Americans with this type of submarine license rounds to 0%.
The problem was even worse for Hispanic estimates. About a quarter (24%) of opt-in cases claiming to be Hispanic said they were licensed to operate a nuclear sub, versus 2% of non-Hispanics.”
BeefReeferLives
I’m only qualified (not licensed) to operate an SSBN submarine, and a particular one at that.
However, when I was sixteen I would have answered “yes” to all most of the fucked up questions just to skew the poll. I would have done this on general principal, and if it was a marketing poll I’d still do the same today.

I’m so proud of my brother-in-law. He really put the work in for his campaign, and now he’s on his way to getting free motor coaches courtesy of a friendly billionaire sponsor that Leonard Leo will hook him up with.
I think the best way for me to show my appreciation for him is to drink some of the bourbon he bought me for Christmas.

I got a nice sleep on the flight back to SFO, and we’ll be getting to the gate about 40 minutes early. This doesn’t really make up for the delay fuckery yesterday, but it’s definitely gonna be helpful that I’m able to grab some coffee and breakfast before driving down to go horseback riding.
I just about covered my airfare in the poker game, and I had a great time which covers everything else!

With any luck I’ll be in bed next to Senorita Weaselo by 3:30! Or parking will be trash and it’ll be after 4:30. We have a 1:30 call for a concert tomorrow where I have to pick someone up.
We’ll be back later to see how I do.

Do y’all use fabric softener? I don’t and my parents never did, but apparently it’s the thing that millennials are killing now?
This is my only real association with fabric softener
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAC8MDEhKQw
I don’t use it on any of my sports stuff. But like it on my towels
We do, but I have no idea if it’s good or I’m just throwing money away.
I guess things smell nice (until two seconds after I put them on)
The plus side of being in the Bay Area – way more data science jobs with higher pay, pretty kickass weather, neat hiking and wine and people and stuff around, BOGOF1cent wine sales
The minus – more competition for those jobs, everything is pointlessly expensive, while overtly less racist and corrupt than Illinois the politics still somehow manages outcomes that are just as racist and corrupt, bars kinda suck
The neutral – driving styles and road conditions aren’t the worst but still kinda suck, have only experienced mild earthquakes in my 6 years here, public transit is crap but I live in the suburbs so it’s the same as everywhere else in the country
Though your DC driving experience has to help.
Oh it’s way better than DC/MD/VA
Live look-in at I-95 right now:
Declan makes it 4-2
Walkoff save wins it. Extra pudding for all of Gov. Rhodes’ manservants!
Outstanding David Raya save, Gooners take the advantage.
Equalizer no doubter. 1-1
Odegaard made Hippo nervous, but converts. 1-0
NC State 4 minutes and change from bursting its NIT bubble. But also avoiding a third loss on the season to SillyCuse.
/no, am not watching
Gooners taken to Extra Time by Porto (who look like a bunch of guys rounded up at the bus station). Fortunately, they don’t have a Prem fixture at the weekend.
Are you completely done with Wolven basketball or is it just this year?
Completely, at least until they fire Keatts. But probably after that. I hold a grudge like a motherfucker.
Yeesh, they brought in Big East refs for this WCC Champeenship-at least two women have bloody noses.
Oh look, Gonzaga has thrown together a gaudy 30-2 regular season record. Wonder how they’re going to choke this year.
Curveball: It’s the women’s team.
Just had an hour data interview, which I think went pretty well. If nothing else, the interviewer laughed at my physics joke about vans going relativistic speeds, so that’s a win
Ravens gonna pass for 70 yards and go undefeated next season.

“We got a TE and we’re trading Mixon instead of releasing him? We’re getting something out of nothing? What a minute…we’re the Bengals. Nothing good happens without something worse to…”

I’m all for not announcing the signings
Seeing Aaron Jones run out in Vikings away colors in Green Bay for Week 1 would be beautiful.

Great hustle here GTD.
I’m playing a game here with HR, and it’s that time again. Time to come up with something of suitable higher importance than my attendance at the quarterly mandatory all hands meeting. For the past 2 meetings they have been trying to give me a (routine) 45 year service award, they do an awards presentation at the start of these 2-3 hour sux fests. I hate those fuckin things. I’m gonna go hide out in the woods for a critically important training assessment. Followed by flirting with some waitress somewhere as a write up my bullshit report. I wish the HR lady would just give me the stupid thing like I’ve asked her. Save me the Cheetah flips.
Mixon isn’t cut! He’s being traded to somewhere called “Houston”
