Subsequent GTD reflections

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:
The universe doesn’t like the secrets. It conspires to reveal the truth to lead you to it [in bed].
Lisa Unger

So your freak flag flies in your dreams or when in bed with your partner?

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.


Found a funny;

Wins for Oppenheimer and Godzilla Minus One mean this is the first time a movie and its sequel both won Oscars the same year.

Gardner Minshew in a Raiders uniform just feels so right. If Uncle Rico had gone pro, there was only one team he could have possibly played for.
Cecil Rhodes


The Eagles have signed both Tony Pollard and Saquon Barkley (!) today.
Horatio Cornblower

I’d say they are gonna go run heavy again. Imagine Hurts and Saquon one-upping each other on Leg Day.

King Hippo

Saquon will probably be happy to play on an offense that has other people in it
Doktor Zymm


And speaking of global atrocities…how angry are Bearistocrats! supporters at the prospect of the club building a FUCKING DOME?
King Hippo

They haven’t figured out how to draft a quarterback in, what, 40 years, and they’re going to figure out how to build a domed stadium?


Please.
Horatio Cornblower


You like that, huh!? You like that!?

Since when do the Falcons need help choking in the post 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…”

“Derrick Henry to Baltimore.”

“There it is. The Universe is balanced once again.”

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.

I actually was pretty funny during my interview (in a geeky data way). You may think this means I was relaxed and at ease, but AU CONTRAIRE, I will make bad jokes even when I see the tram of death coming for me

Also, Inanimate Carbon Tyrod changes locker rooms at Snoopy Stadium (which would be a far better name than MetLife, NO ONE DENIES THIS)

I don’t get it. Is he the new Hamburglar?

Oh, so A-a-ron is also on the Sandy Hook conspiracy thing.

Didn’t think I could think less of him but here we are.

Pool update.

Whatever seal coat they put on this thing had been stinking for 36 hours and shows little sign of letting up. They say like 3 more days til can walk on it. Dudes put a lot of effort into this thing.

Okay, based on the number of Tornado Warnings, it appears God has conceded the argument and has begun to wipe Ohio off the face of the Earth.

Sorry for the obvious anger below. My dog is dying. He’s gone blind. He’s 14. Can’t get out of bed. You’ve all maybe done this but it’s a first for me. Thanks for the community and the meathooks pictures. I like the planes and the ships.

Don’t be sorry he’ll be gone, be thankful you had him.

My jet engine model has hit a snag. It turns out this is not ideal to do while drinking.

I’m currently trying to assemble these two parts of the engine:

Those are M2x6 screws that mate to M2 nuts. This requires both a 1.5MM driver, and something to hold the M2 nut. Normally not an issue (for me, I’m built differently), but you can see that the screw top is directly below the above surface which means a 1.5MM screwdriver can’t get in there. And my 1.5MM allen key has a short side that is still too long to fit in that gap. So, that means I have to use the wobble end on the long side of the allen key. This very much means I cannot get a reliable hold on the screw head and very much increases the likely hood of striping the screw head. On the other end, there’s no 1.5MM socket to hold the nut. So instead, I’m using a small pair of pliers. Unfortunately those nuts are less than .5MM thick, so they twist wildly when trying to mate with the screw. This precision is, again, very difficult while drinking. Worse, these tiny screws and nuts like to fly about when squeezed too hard, and then they are incredibly difficult to locate.
Mr. Ayo

Nonetheless, I persist, and will conquer. Back to work.

Could you have put the bolts in the other way so that the nut is in the middle and the driver now fits?

Game Time Decision

Yes, but they’re oriented this way for a reason. Well on a real jet engine there’s a reason. On the model I could get away with that.

Mr. Ayo

Listen to Mr Boeing about safety over here

Me: “You know, I’m gonna miss Aaron Donald.”

NFL Network: “We now celebrate the career of Aaron Donald by airing Super Bowl LVI, wherein Donald made Cincinnati’s Offensive Line his bitches and made Joe Burrow cry for his momma.”

It’s not a mythical sea creature getting released, but some flightless birds need to be dealt with.


Sharkbait


Once again, I can’t believe that QAaron would consider joining a family that has a propensity for receiving shots. I mean, that seems like his two least favorite things!

Also reading this while seeing a bird on a power line reminds you that birds aren’t real (except the birds of prey, which are our best friends and allies against the avian spies).
Senor Weaselo


Thanks, hippo. Lately I’m not capable of containing my anger as eloquently as even this, so I’m not going to say anything else. I hope all you folks are feeling strong as spring breaks wherever youse are and all your brackets carry you deep through the tourney. I’m 17 months sober now, which is really fantastic family-and-health-wise, but I’m finding I was using booze to try to put the fucking lights out on shit like the subject of this screed, and haven’t yet figured out how to deal with it sober without it sending me into a blinding rage. And it comes every day, the willful stupidity, with no letup in sight. So to make myself more generally palatable, I’ve been unplugging somewhat and lurking more. Love you guys and love this place. Hope you feel better, Sir Hippo!

My heart is so goddamn full I could fucking burst with happiness.

I got to hug and cook for and spend time with my oldest daughter and all 3 of my granddaughters today.

Now I’mma smoke one and beat Taj’s ass in a round of cribbage.

Happy!
yeah right


Found a funny;

Doctor: I have some bad news about your son. I’m afraid he’s too cool.

Mom: can he… can he still go to school?

Doc: you may want to sit down for this

I have made many mistakes today. First, I had this for dinner:

Yes, that’s the Chizza. KFC’s pizza on a fried chicken. There are many things wrong with this. The marinara is way too sweet, the “mozzarella” has no flavor, the “chicken” is typical KFC quality. And what should be the only redeeming quality of the meal is the fried skin on the chicken is, of course, turned to soggy mush by the “pizza” toppings. I highly recommend getting a quality friend chicken an a quality pizza separately and combining if you want to recreate this abomination.
Mr. Ayo


These American announcers doing the Wings/Penguins game don’t know anything about hockey. They haven’t mentioned the Maple Leafs once!

There are two conferences at my next hotel-a business one that I’m attending and Furnal Equinox 2024. Needless to say, there’s quite the mix of folks in the lobby. Why? Because no one’s room is ready
scotchnaut

Is Furnal Equinox some Canadian Furry Convention?

LemonJello

Yes. The person in the purple fox costume dancing to the Tom’s Diner remix was a dead giveaway for me

If you have having trouble “loggin in”, once logged in it may say that you are not logged in, at that point, refresh the page. If that does not work, then clear your cache and “loggin in” again.

Thanks for all the comments and funny and everything else.

Stay busy and safe out there.

Nice going, Robert Moses:

My view shows me just a small stretch of the Gardiner Expressway-it’s jammed to the nuts in both directions all day and into the night.

scotchnaut

The DVP’s route was designed by that ‘not-serious’ guy in the group that ordinarily would never be given any real responsibility. My guess is, that hippie’s father oversaw the project.

scotchnaut

I’ve never had Korean fried chicken but it’s a 4(!) minute walk from where I am right now. Seems like too much effort.

BugEyedBoo

Worth the walk. Get the chicken that gets a turn on the grill after frying.

scotchnaut

The bastards didn’t let me saunter into the kitchen!

Brick Meathook

You’d see bony illegal-immigrant slave-labor cooks chained to their stoves and being whipped by their leather-clad muscular overlords. “Fry! Grill! Fry! Grill!” they shout (in a primitive foreign dialect) between vicious and painful whip cracks. This scene is also true in every Chinese restaurant as well.

BugEyedBoo

Yeah, but that Garlic Tikkudak is so good!

scotchnaut

Someone’s porn preference descriptions leaked onto our site, I’m thinking.

Senor Weaselo

Name of the place?

Mama Lee’s Korean Kitchen.

It’s at the very beginning of the Longest Street In The World!*

*Yonge Street-it stretches from Toronto to Thunder Bay, I’m told

Great recap as usual GTD.

My day took a bad turn towards the suck today. But I trust tomorrow will be better.

Poor Lowratio, out there catching strays in the comments.

Fun Fact: “Catching strays” usually gets Eli’s Animal Planet viewing privileges reduced or revoked for a couple of weeks.

Hey, Rikki, the Washington Post wrote an article about you:

Not gonna lie, I figured it was a comparison on top vacuum cleaners on the market.

I didn’t say they wrote an article about dr mrs rtd esq

Oh, ours wasn’t panic-bought. It was our trip to Japan that inspired us to get them. And then when the toilet paper shortage hit, we just laughed, and laughed, and laughed.
