Subsequent GTD reflections

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.

This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:
There is a fellowship more quiet even than solitude, and which rightly understood, is solitude made perfect [in bed].
Robert Louis Stevenson

Jeez buddy, just say you like to sleep alone. Personally I sleep better beside Mrs. GTD than alone, but your preferences may vary.

Got out for a quick 9 holes, of golf, you sickos, on Friday afternoon. It’s a pretty flat and easy course, so tried to remember to stop trying to drive the ball through the trees or over the hazards and just to lay up for a better next shot. The other thing was to stay on my toes, as I realized that my weight was all on my heels when hitting and that’s not a good thing.

So with those things in mind I did manage to get 2 bogeys and only got 1 snowman, so thought that was a good improvement over my usual round, and did feel less pressure to make the easier shot instead of trying to go over things. I would have prob done better if it hadn’t rain about 2 hours before the round as the greens were very hard to read. A three putt seemed to be the rule and not the exception for the day.

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.

Jerry Jones letting Johnson go is simply criminal stupidity. Dallas with 10 more years of Johnson would have put up results exceeding the Patriots and Tom Brady.

Due to home renovations I had to empty my office and switch everything to the basement, which included disconnecting two TVs in order to ensure wifi access for the house.

Truly I live in hell. (ignores everything going on literally everywhere else on the planet)

Anyhoodles, I just noticed an enormous spider scurrying around the basement and have decided to not tell Mrs. Horatio about it, on the theory that the renovations should be done by the end of the week, but her burning the house to ashes is forever.

“Which is why we are looking at cold to cooler places for retirement and they have to have legalized recreational weed, because I would prefer to be legally stoned all day rather than illegally. “

I picked Turkey, but this is great. I had my eye on teams that have huge migrant populations that get shit on in Germany. This is like that bullshit NFL announcers try to pull with Steeler fans. “Boy, they sure do travel! They show up in huge numbers in every stadium we go to!”
Actually, doofus, all the steel mills closed down and they left Pittsburgh for better economic opportunities elsewhere. They live here, but still love the Steelers. Same with all these happy maniacs screaming for Albania. Pretty sure most of them live and work in Germany.

After a week of a renovation project that involved having all of the first floor ceiling essentially torn apart, resealed, and then painted, which in turn involved moving all of the furniture from room to room like some kind of deranged game of…I don’t know, some game where you move things around for no reason…I now have my office back and will be here more often wasting time.

I apologize in advance.

If you believe that “it’s not Thanksgiving without [your beloved dish, which is probably some gross green bean casserole or marshmallow-festooned monstrosity that nobody who wasn’t conditioned from birth to like it would enjoy], then either volunteer to make/bring the damn thing, or stay the fuck home.”


I’m a terrible food snob, but if someone’s hosting me, I would never bitch and moan about it, even if they served the aforementioned shitty dishes.

Man, when I watched ‘The Last of Us’ on HBO I thought that they’d done a great job making Kansas City look like a sun-blasted and abandoned wasteland, but based on that last overhead shot of KC all they did was show up and start filming.

scotchnaut

What with all the hand gestures and shoulder shrugs you’d think the Peruvians were subjugated by the Italians.

ArmedandHammered

They picked it up when the Mafia came over to negotiate drug prices and the split.

Hey, woah, woah, woah, woah, WOAH!!!

This game’s being played in Missouri; we don’t discuss ‘transition’ games, or ‘transition’ anything else, ’round these parts.

You are still on the list, but this is a masterpiece.

ArmedandHammered

That is the only way they understand the word transition, from sports. Transitioning from offense to defense. There we go, if they are becoming male they are transitioning to offense and if male transitioning to female they are defense. Plays in to all the stereoptypes.

scotchnaut

All roads lead to Canada with the silly upset.

Massive advantage for the Canucks now, they just might get a shot on goal.

I don’t see how they don’t spend 6, even 7 minutes on Peru’s half of the field.

It’s new to him because refs never had to be shady for Canada to lose, they just took care of that by showing up.

this a heatstroke situation?

scotchnaut

We’ve replaced the players on these teams with hot tar roofers. Yeah, you can probably tell the difference.

Horatio Cornblower

Throwing a guy off a roof he’s tarring is now considered incidental contact. No card.

Why does The Canadia use “soccer” like bellends? If you’re going to bow to the fookin’ monarch, then at least use the mothership’s correct footy terminology

I don’t know, I think we wear red and white better. The former matches our pasty skin wonderfully.
