Hello there fellow DFO’er.  Hope you’re well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks tl;dr of last 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.

A big thanks to Don T and BRC[BFC] for filling in for my dumb ass the last few weeks. Hopefully you were both bribed well to include folks in the rundown.

This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:
Deep vengeance is the daughter of deep silence [in bed].
Vittorio Alfieri

Well, no vengeance in my bed as I snore like crazy. Sorry Mrs GTD.

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.

My second pick [ in the changes draft], the errant pass that allowed the Buffalo bills to draft OJ simpson

Tighten your chinstrap because we’re going for a wild ride:

For those of you who don’t know, there’s this urban legend that if a butterfly effect, that if the 1968 buffalo bills had not narrowly lost a game late in their season, they would not have been able to draft OJ simpson first overall

The logic goes that if OJ goes to a different team, his movie career is different, then the murders don’t happen, Robert kardashian never gets involved, then presumably Kim kardashian never becomes famous yadda yadda…

It’s mostly nonsense though, Robert Kardashian and OJ were friends from their days together at USC, and by the tile the trial happen, Robert hadn’t practiced law for years (he reactivated his license to take the case, but ultimately he was not a big part of OJ’s legal team)

And on top of that, Robert was independently wealthy of his relationship with OJ, he would have found a way to make Kim famous regardless of who her godfather was.

And on top of that……

OJ met Nicole at a club he frequented in California while still playing for the bills, he had been to the nightclub when he was in college, so it doesn’t matter where he played, he would have met her eventually

Still, if there is a non zerp percent chance I can prevent the Kardashians from happening with this pick, I’m taking it

1) I’ll take the invention of the forward pass in American football [in the changes draft]. Basically, it created a new religion that displaced Christianity.

So fresh off us coming from one of her friends getting married, one of Senorita Weaselo’s friends just got engaged, and it was one of the trio she hung out with in college. Her other friend from that group (her best friend) texted her “WHAT THE FUCK YOU BETTER NOT LEAVE ME ALONG BY ENGAGING”

We have a chance to do something hilarious. I mean we’re not going to anytime soon, but it would be hilarious.

Had a bunch of different recruiters contact me about contract jobs today. If I’m lucky I’ll become one of those fabled people you hear about who works 3 remote jobs simultaneously somehow in 30 hours/week

For a few years in my childhood, my dad ran a side hustle where he packaged bulk french fries for chip stands and other restaurants. I think he ended up selling it because it was at the point where he would have had to quit his day job to do it properly; I think he made a modest profit on the whole thing, but not enough for me to become a Potato Prince like I deserved!

A list of the greatest comedy influences in my lifetime (to date). They are not ranked in any order, they are all equally in the Hall of Fame:

Monty Python
National Lampoon Magazine (Doug Kenney era)
National Lampoon Radio Hour
Firesign Theater
Mr. Show
Chappelle’s Show
Freak Brothers comics (especially the artwork)
Mad Magazine (Harvey Kurtzman and Al Feldstein eras, particularly the artwork)
Achewood
Cris Shapan’s parody illustrations (I post a lot of them here)
NBC era of Late Night with David Letterman
The Simpsons (seasons 1 to maybe 10)
George Carlin 1970’s albums

I’m probably leaving some out . . .

I’ve been taking entry level Italian on my language app for about 6 months now. Nothing serious just 15 minutes a day.
Trying to immerse myself and shit.

Did one today.

Turns out we’re going to Ireland and not Italy.

I already know how to speak Irish.

So youngest skull fracture boy took another job and just finished his first week. The paycheque was bigger and he’s happy with that because he wants to buy all the nice new things. (boat, car, ATV, etc.) Thing is, I divided his pay by the number of hours he worked and it’s $3.45 less per hour than what he would get at our business. Welp.

/wife is on a major health kick

Wifey: “Come taste this-it’s a loaf I made from a recipe. It’s made from lentils and cottage cheese.”

Me: [takes small bite]

Wifey: “It’s dry, I know, but it was worth a try.”

Me: [slowly lowers hand with piece of loaf in it to the open mouth of Ruby]

Wifey: “Awww. It’s that bad?”

Me: “Uh huh.”

It was a pain in the ass road but we got the Hawaii place closed last week. Under 1,000 SF, 2/2 and middle space plus carport. It’s in kinda an agriculture pocket thing and, long-story short, pretty restrictive building restrictions. I’m up for the build-out project because, goddamn, there’s no other opportunity available that meets any version of my needs for the eventual place — with eventual doing a lot of work here.

So pretty excited. I mean, like the way you get excited for years of work ahead. But you think it’s a labor of love thing so you lie to yourself long enough to make sure you can’t get out when reality sets in. At least that’s my system for these big projects; glad to getting moving on it now.

The Big Sur place smokes mine by a long shot. A LONG shot.

Media: “Why Are Millennials Killing Movies!?!?”

Me: (not a millennial) (watching an ad for the 3rd Quiet Place movie). Gee, good question. I dunno.
