So, my brother is at the Notre Dame – USC game in South Bend tonight. Beerbrother was invited to give a speech there yesterday, and instead of a per diem he accepted tickets to the game. I asked him if he spit on the Joe Theismann statue, and he responds that he actually met him…and asked him about his Argos career.
All kidding aside, when in South Bend, you take the tour of the field.
The hotel where he’s staying is full of USC fans, so he asked me for the worst thing he could say that would guarantee the most offense. I said to wait in a line for something and then ask, “Is this the line to work a train on Aunt Becky’s daughter? Because, I can pay.”

If I could draw I’d do one of Trump pissing on a Kurdish flag (do they have a flag?) and another of him hurling a lawyer-looking guy under a bus.
It seems dangerous to include anyone other than Trump in these paintings (i.e. John Bolton) cause they all end up either quitting or getting fired.

Woo hoo! Four minutes in and the USA isn’t losing yet!
Woo hoo! American Rugby!
Fuck yeah, Formula One at a somewhat reasonable time.

They’re loading that Washington player on the cart and taking him to the cemetery.
Let’s give him a big hand, folks!
Dead huskies aren’t much fun.
Has anyone mentioned how much this PG&E thing reeks of 2000 when Enron was blacking out California because it could (and somehow kinda sorta didn’t even make them money)
Flyers shootout losses are so automatic at this point that I don’t even bother watching them
Venting some frustration:
Why is losing weight harder than gaining weight? It’s such bullshit.
I have an outside shot of meeting my new Year’s resolution goals by the end of December, but with how things are going lately, I’ll probably reach my goal in early-mid February. (I have 28 pounds to go).
I didn’t start taking my weight loss seriously until June because I had more urgent and pressing things to attend that required a more sedentary Wakezilla. Also, I threw out my back 3 times this year, which didn’t help.
Anyway, the past month, I trained like a god damn pro athlete and I lost “just” 10 pounds. ( That’s not a lot when you weigh north of 240). With that said, I have lost a ton of inches.
The thing is, I need surgery and my doctor told me he wouldn’t operate on me until I was at least 220. I have my why and reason, but it is also difficult to go balls to the wall when a lot of movements hurt, which I just fight through the pain.
My current setback is I have a strained hamstring.i suspect it’s from running 7km when it was -8 outside. Lesson learned, just…. Frustrated
Even if you don’t hit your goal, you’re getting close. I’ve officially regained all the weight I lost last year and almost all of it – the last 40 – was regained in the last six months. I gained weight in summer somehow.
So, at least you’re doing better than me and a lot of other people. But you’re still working to better yourself, and that’s what’s most important.
Keep working dude. I’m in the same fat boat. We have to live to see the LA Olympics.
It’s great that you’ve lost inches and probably gained muscle training, though. That’s really good for the long term. But diet’s at least 75% of losing weight and I know that can be frustrating as Hell. I stress eat and that’s what’s killing me. But you also have to make sure that you don’t wreck yourself worse trying to stay on track. Strained hammies and back going out three times is a lot. I get it, but I pulled a muscle in my back doing squats in August 2009 and I still get reminders of it every so often.
If it’s an option, take up swimming. Risk of injury is basically nonexistent.
I would like to take this opportunity to wholly endorse Yeah Right’s Italian Beef Sandwich recipe. Had to crock pot it today because of work, but goddamn, that is outstanding. GREAT HUSTLE.
It’s a good sandwich, Donny
So, my favorite band is so bad-ass.

I’ll leave it to you to find the rest.
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is over. And I didn’t cry once.
Okay, now I’m crying but they showed a scene from “You’re in My Head Like a Catchy Song” with Applejack’s parents. That’s this show’s version to “Seymour waiting for Fry to return”. That one scene where once you know what it is, you’ll tear up when you see it.
Fuck you for reminding me of Seymour. Goddammit.
He was a good boy.
I have no idea what any of this means.
Not according to HBO
No idea who that is.
That’s sounds like a very specific denial. Why don’t you have a seat over there?
Andy Reid calls dibs on the uneaten Baconator.
Sydney Sweeney. This year’s version of Alexandra Daddario in True Detective.

Stomach hurts. Need antiacid. Or liquor. Or a knife.
Bud Light Platinum’s approach of promoting their beer by basically saying that Bud Light sucks is interesting, to say the least.
Someone clearly sucks at Risk.
All she had was Ukraine.
Should have gone with Kamchatka. No one ever sees it coming from Kamchatka.
At that. Iceland is where empires are founded.
The point is to crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the women. That’s just obvious.
That’s good philosophizin’
I certainly don’t agree that the meaning of life is to listen to women complain, but to each his own, I guess.
It’s the refund line for fail children like the Waltons who didn’t earn their degrees
Da fuq yu tawkin bout?
Zach Britton makes my balls sweat
Good thing he’s now Zack with a K! Too bad we don’t care.
He wins a World Series this year I’ll start spelling it with a K.
Drinking one of these and goddamn is it good.
Emory Jones has taken this offense, a little rough around the edges, and really smoothed it out.
Nice
This inning is a perfect thing to bring up whenever someone complains about instant replay in baseball. Umpires would have completely changed the tone of the game with awful calls.
And somehow, none of them are Angel Hernandez.
That fucking guy should be banned.
From baseball. Or judging. Or using his eyes.
And Joe West, and Laz Diaz.
If I were a pitcher and the manager put the shift on I would refuse to throw the ball until he took it off.
What if it was a really nice shift though, like a really nice cotton?
That’s good hustle.
I mean, I’m not a monster…
Didn’t realize the Yanquis lineup was so stacked that they have Aaron Judge batting 2nd.
It really is something. And relatively cheap too, although that’s going to be very different over the next couple of years as arbitration kicks in.
My drinking goal for the evening is to end up as dazed and insensate as that poor hawk that flew into my glass wall this morning. Let’s begin!
Um, yeah, sure. “Begin”
I’m one strong beer (22 oz) in, and switching to lite beer. I’ll try to keep up.
last funny:
I told my 14yo there’s a muppet who is dealing with drug addiction and he said “they all are. Look at their eyes”
LSU must lead the league in injury timeouts by now.
Gleyber Torres for 2 months of Chapman looks better and better.
Even the Cubs can’t complain.
Damn Comicon nerds.
She’s a fox.
Literally.
Things not looking so good for Spacemen at this point.

Any female that I meet and take home and have fun with is someone’s mom or even grandmom. I hate it if the lady tries to introduce me to her offspring. “Dude, your mom? Hottest fuck I can remember.” Not a comfortable feeling.
Start fucking dudes instead. Problem solved.

I love that watching CBC from Michigan gets you a picture quality you’d expect watching Pornhub on a TI-86
Hmmmmm, Julie Newmar.
I like that she wrote that nice message to Wong Foo.
Someone should tell the refs that Sandusky and Joe Pa don’t work at Penn St anymore, screwing them now doesn’t do anything.
They allowed it to happen. Never forget.
The university shouldn’t exist.
