SundayTales: DFO’s Brand of Horror, 2016 Edition

Good day, all and sundry! I’m Petronel, and this is my first post. (“Hi, Petronel!”)

Continuing our roundup of SPOOKY NFL STORIES!, here is what 2016 had to offer.

Horatio Cornblower started things off right with The Man with the Golden Arm.

Blaxabbath sent us into the RRRRRRAMMMMMIT! Zone.

Beerguyrob showed us what happens when you abandon TV wrestling for online dating.

BrettFavresColonoscopy went all Poe-faced on us.

Old School Zero exposed us to Obedience training.

Yeah Right uncovered the true cost of curiosity.

InternetDad got straight to the point.

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem exhibited bravery of an uncommon sort by tackling the Blair Walsh Project.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly continued the Kinging.

Entropy wrapped up Halloween 2016 neatly, with true greatness.

Get yer scare on!

I just reread Entropy’s masterpiece and it’s inspired my entry for this year, a little something I like to call: “Fuck It, I’m Out”

One downside of sharing all these is raising expectations and concluding we’ve all lost a step.

Not when you see mine. It’s got Hue Jackson in it so I’m building up expectations in it sky-high so it will be more horrifying when they come crashing down.

Excellent! Let’s have a look.

Riding the border between tasteful and pimptastic. Perfect. How about the booze?

Very nice job, Petronel!

We’re not allowed to make “popping cherry” jokes, right?

Right.

Put me on the record: Were Steve Scalise to be shot and killed at any moment, it would be an inarguably objective positive event. Full stop.

Having experienced the effects of political violence firsthand, I am committed to speaking out against it every time it rears its ugly head. We are better than this, and we will move beyond this.https://t.co/IYUAYWMZwM

He’ll speak out against it, but doing something like pushing legislation for sensible gun control?

Fuck that.
