Conference Championship Nihilism Nite!

Man, have these games been bad (I am typing this during GA/TX, which hopefully at least keeps me awake).  We’ll have PLAYOFFS come 13 days from now, and enough Dec/Jan FITBAW to take one’s mind off….you know.  Society and shit.

Marshall (+5) at Louisiana-Lafayette – Sun Belt Championship (7:30, ESPN)

When I was married, I was frequently asked “why the hell would you care about THIS” during such tilts.  I mean, it’s FITBAW and it’s on.  I try not to ask too many damned questions.

Paedo State (+3.5) v. Oregon – B1G Championship, Gravy Boat (8:00, CBS)

Finally, CBS gets a decent TV matchup.  Watch Quackers win by 40.  Winner gets 1 seed, loser #5.

Clemson (+2.5) v. SMU – ACC Championship, Richardson Family Plantation (8:00, ABC)

Closer line than expected, but who knows how the Ponies will really react to the spotlight.  REALLY want them to finish their blitzkrieg through ACC play in their first season, despite not really being wanted.  Few organizations (ok, maybe the US Senate) are run as dysfunctionally as the ACC.  Viva el Methodismo!

YES, still no cheerleaders.  Sorry, society.  Y’all know what y’all done.

I’m starting curling agin in the new year with my boss and his boss’s boss and his husband and maybe some other folks. I’m also bowling at my peak with my new raw hammer ball
It could be a weekly thing. Bowling is Tuesday. Curling will be Friday if I have my way, and as the tallest straight male I should get my way, so maybe like any day in there? It all comes up at some time so give me a day. I commit!
I commit.

I’ve been meeling a log of hot wings in town too. I could throw that in. And I want to add one about fish n chips. all the fat guy stuff.

ballsofsteelandfury

Yes!

WCS

We had Dumbfuck of the Week earlier, how about Lucky Bastard of the Year/Karma Burn:

Crotch-rocket bike into jersey barrier reportedly at fair rate of speed. He walked away with reportedly minor injuries; arrested for DUI, however.

Mr. Ayo

The lesson, as always, is to be black out drunk if you’re going to get in an accident.

WCS

And that’s literally it. Closed call, he’s on his way to the ER with the police, so it’s breathalyzer time.

Blood draw? Let me guess: Still drunk?

Carl’s dancing levels of drunk, perhaps?

Mr. Ayo

He’s probably too drunk to get any painkillers too, lol.

I hate Joe Biden more than any living politician and number 2 is not even close, which is saying something, since it’s Obama. He’s a contemptible human being who has never done the right thing in his entire life. I know he doesn’t even have a grasp on time and space, and was never fit for office in 2019, and has not actually been exercising power (which is cool and fine and not a sign of how pointless it is who is president), but that doesn’t absolve him of his and his administration’s crimes as a capstone to a half century of carrying water for the worst people and ideas on earth. I wish him a long life of suffering.

Trump is a genuine loser piece of shit, and yet he is a better person than Biden even on Joe’s best day.

Darn. If Joe Biden is the worst (living*) politician you can think of, you’re doing pretty good.
Sometimes I get overdone with the crush of life. The news. Savagery. Awfulness. I have another whisky and listen to the wind.
It’s all in the wind.

Anyway, this isn’t a crisis as far as the U.S. is concerned. We’ve now neutralized Hamas, Hezbollah, Syria, and Iran. We’ve weakened one of Russia’s allies. We’ve shown that Ukrainians are effective proxy army trainers and commanders. And we’ve made sure Turkey, the second-largest and second most important member of NATO, is happier than a pig in shit. Sure, the new boss may slaughter alawites, Druze, Christians, and, of course, Kurds, but that’s not our problem any more than all the other ethnic cleansing we’ve abetted or turned a blind eye towards just in that region just in the last ten years. No one even remembers what happened to the Armenians of Artsakh last year.

Mission Fucking Accomplished

Unsurprised

Donald’s first crisis is probably going to revolve around whether China enforces the sanctions it just levied on the U.S. and its allies on “dual-use” materials like gallium and other rare earth minerals.

Since the U.S. has been speedrunning deindustrialization for the last forty years (manufacturing as a percentage of the economy has remained flat for 25 years only because some things just cannot be offshored to … China), China is in a position to annihilate the U.S. economy if numbnuts actually tries to start a trade war. And you know what the funniest part is? None of those considerations has taken into account the fact that even three years into the Ukraine-Russia war, Russia has not enacted its own trade war capabilities against the West.

Anyway, everything is cool. The adults in the room are doing a great job. Setting up Trump for failure at the expense of, well, us is worth it because Team Blue is awesome and Team Red are traitors. Amirite!?!

high five! High five!

BC Dick

They’re both scum. Politicians are charlatans and frauds at the professional level. They just use different levers to gain power.

Unsurprised

Didn’t Jacksonville and Tennessee already play each other like two weeks ago?

I wonder what kind of hilarity is in store for Jets-Fins. The Insufferable Force vs. the Oblivious Object.

Unsurprised

Hmm A rare miss by Dril. You can, in fact, hand it to ISIL.

If Alabama get in over SMU, the Ponies should boycott their bowl game.

Mr. Ayo

This guy gets it. SMU is out, lol

Unsurprised

They should’ve stayed dead

Redshirt

No punches? No flags?

What kind of bullshit is this?!

Redshirt

I’m legitimately surprised they’re not pulling a Karate Kid Part III and having Alabama waiting to play the winner of the bracket for the National Championship.

Redshirt

SMU winning the first CFB Playoff Bracket would be perfect.

LOL dabo Dabo DABO

GO FOR TWO STANGS!

I’d kick. The review sapped the momentum and got Clemson back on track.

Mr. Ayo

Folks, never listen to the strategy of a Bungles fan.

Redshirt

I’ve won Super Bowls with David Klingler and Akili Smith…in video games, but its better than the Bengals have done in real life.

Mr. Ayo

Cowards.

Mr. Ayo

Another Death Penalty for allowing Deebo a chance.

Redshirt

It would work better without the review. Clemson would still be shellshocked.

The Ducks appear to have this one in hand.
The Ducks cheerleaders wear colorful outfits.
We need to celebrate cheerleaders again.

Penn State’s color is blue from the constant letdowns they give their fans’ collective balls.

Tears of the Kingdom is apparently a lot like the Niners’ season: was supposed to be incredible because of the previous version, but sort of breaks down about halfway through.

Stay frosty.

Alright, so here’s a candidate for Dumbfuck of the Week:

Routine traffic stop turns into assault of a police office with a vehicle, and then our supergenius rolls his vehicle down a hillside two blocks away trying to flee.

Captain Car Crash here has now tried to flee on foor, has been for about 20 minutes. Here’s the thing: he’s clearly leaking oil, and likely seriously injured.

Since no one else is here, I’m just going to rivebrog this as it happens. There’s no way this doesn’t make the news, so it’s fine.

WCS

22: 49 UPDATE: He’s been detained.

WCS

He’s got a concussion and a leg injury at the very least.

WCS

Straight from the ER to County Lock Up.

I’m here.

Reminds me of that Grand Jury trial where someone responded by getting fired by committing three counts Grand Theft Auto, two counts Leaving Scene of Accidents, one count Kidnapping, one count Resisting Arrest, one count Escaping and was one tackle away from another Grand Theft Auto and 28 counts Kidnapping a Minor (he was heading towards a school bus handcuffed).

Personally, I responded to getting unjustly fired by scratching deep into my asscrack and shaking my ex-boss’s hand, but I guess you gotta be you.

Mr. Ayo

This is one hell of story to read after waking up from a nap.

Gumbygirl

There was a Christmas parade in Palm Springs tonight. Some asshole motorcycle cop was going waaaay too fast, doing wheelies, lost control and smashed into a bunch of people on the sidewalk. Several people badly injured. Asshole cop lost a hand. Good.

Gumbygirl

Somebody posted a picture of him lying there handless on Nextdoor. Wanna see it?

Mr. Ayo

Sure, why not?

Defense is optional in the ACC game. I look forward to betting against the winner of this game in the playoff.

SonOfSpam

Even with the addition of Stanford and Cal???

litre_cola

If Dabo Dabo Dabo wins doe SMOO get knocked out by 3 loss Bama?

SonOfSpam

Would be fun if they both got knocked out by Florida State. Classic makeup call.

yeah right

So I gave the dishwasher the night off for some damn reason and there I was having to wash my own damn dishes.

Rather than get huffy about it, I just put on my headset and got busy.

This was song number one.

And now I’m switching back to my phone so I can listen to these in the GOOD headphones.

WCS

Lil’ WCS specifically requested an iPod.

I got her a Walkman. Yes, Walkmans are easier to find than iPods.

I have no questions about that Devo song because the title answers the questions.

VAR check.

Overruled this is song 2.
