That Loser Mentality-A Thursday Night Open Thread

The last I checked the Ottawa Senators had a 98.1% chance of making the playoffs but because of their long wretched history of not making the playoffs, several online dumbasses are pretending that it isn’t a lock. And of course they think they’re the smart ones. Good god… Un-informed condescension usually wins the day these days. (consults recent posts of mine) Oh, shit….

NFL News:

Jerry’s Latest Toy: The Pats Joe Milton has a big arm. Jerry likes big arms. Joe Milton is now a Cowboy. Jerry’s latest attempt to diminish Dak was just a matter of time.

Jerry, Also: He has to sign Micah Parsons and has been putting it off. Will it cost him 10’s of millions more of dollars because he’s not getting it done while other premo defenders get signed and drive the average annual salary up? Oh hell yeah! Did he just shit on Parsons’ agent by saying that he didn’t know his name? You know the answer.

Hendrickson High Road: Have you ever been in an argument and someone responded with, “you should feel [this]”. That’s what Katie Blackburn recently blurted out (“he should be happy”) in the direction of Trey Hendrickson with regards to his expectations of getting paid a cheapo salary. What an entitled piece of shit. (she’ll likely be the next owner when the oldest piece of shit Bengals owner finally passes away) For the record, Trey said he was, ‘disappointed’.

Generational Wealth The New-Fashioned Way: Geno Smith signed a two-year, 75 mil contract and it doesn’t involve a flood that killed 2200+ people!

What do you guys like to use for lawn weed killer? Primarily cloves, not dandelions or tall growers. When I was a kid in Nevada I had to pull those weeds with like the paste inside that was all sticky. It’s not those.

I had the boy out pulling with me last night in an overall futile effort to dominate the lawn. I hope I can spray after. Also — do I still have to pull first? I feel like there is no way the answer isn’t yes but I’m still looking for such a product — though they are all extracted from superfund sites.

I also see they have like seed with weed killer. Should I use that annually before the season comes?

Also — it’ll be a good day when we can manufacture Round-Up from upstream of rural Georgia.

This is a conversation that comes up frequently.

I usually tell the gardener “Do what you think is best.”

And he does.

LemonJello

While the killing fields around Fortress LemonJello are not entirely weed free, I follow the following steps:

Only pull weeds from the flower beds
Liberally apply a weed & feed to the lawns in the spring, mid summer and fall
Seed bare spots every spring, nothing happens, curse at the uncaring gods, wish to pave the whole lot/cover with field turf

Also, use the tried and true Marine Corps method:

I have a buzz, my darling dears. It’s wine and weed time in Casa Gumby.Somebody made an offer on my house today, let us dance nekkid and offer up a sacrificial virgin or two to the Gods of Real Estate that the deal goes through!

Game Time Decision

Maybe less dancing nekkkid if there are tours coming through

Sharkbait

Or more nekkid dancing. You never know

Mr. Ayo

The nekkid dancing brings in all the bids though

I can’t remember if we discussed this article here – a woman getting scammed for $50k:

But I just read a deeper dive by a skeptic of the story that actually validated some of the details, which was pretty interesting:

Ice Alouettes give the Ice Patriots their seventh straight loss. Delicious! Love that the Ice Patriots now suck as bad as the real Patriots. (I don’t care about basketball, they can have that.)

Also apparently the UC Irvine Baseball Team is pretty good this year too!

How many times have you masturbated in your life?
I started adding up and I think I’m over 200. Damn, does that make me one of those preverts?

I wouldn’t be shocked if it was that many in a month when I was 16…

Twice, maybe three times.

“Steel Beach Liberty BBQ.” Hopefully also with a swim call.

There were rules for all of this (because Navy = Rules) but we had fun.

Good times, shipmates. Good times.

What rules can there be other than don’t hurt each other / get hurt? Standing around on a piece of steel in the ocean with a grill. I think I see Dale and fucking Boomhauer coming up from spying on Khan’s.

You were in the U.S. Army. Thank you for your service

Dude, that’s me right there cooking.

Gumbygirl

Gumby loved a steel beach party. Looks pretty choppy, I bet that water was freezing. His first boat did a lot of short stuff in the Caribbean, and a full Med cruise, so they had quite a few swim calls in reasonably warm water.

Brick Meathook

In the Atlantic Fleet all boats finished their patrols in the Caribbean for training exercises. That’s where all the BBQs and swim calls happened, in my experience.

Gumbygirl

His first boat was a boomer that had been converted to a slow attack. They were a test platform for a bunch of different systems and equipment, so they were doing short hops to the Caribbean all the time

Brick Meathook

My boat was a test platform for the worst sailors ever.

blaxabbath

Bet you guys were scrappy though.

Back in the engine room in the warm waters of the Caribbean we got 70ºF seawater injection temperatures for machinery cooling and that sucked, because it also meant that we (the humans) were hot, sometimes 110ºF. Give me patrolling in the Arctic any day.

Dear God I hope so. Then my batshit crazy Premier will want a referendum and get absolutely destroyed

blaxabbath

How’s that work? You elect a PM then like the legislative house can referendum him as like a block the will of the unwashed masses response?

I need to know how to approach my French Quebecaww neighbor.
