Ballsy’s Saturday Night World Cup Group Previews and Open Thread – Group H

Again, a huge THANK YOU to Dok for fixing the Clone function! You can call it laziness. I prefer to call it efficiency. Either way, I can now crank these out and be ahead of the game. While Hippo may choose to ignore this year's tournament to be held in the

Ballsy’s World Cup Group Previews and Open Thread – Group L

First off all, a huge THANK YOU to Dok for fixing the Clone function! You can call it laziness. I prefer to call it efficiency. Either way, I can now crank these out and be ahead of the game. While Hippo may choose to ignore this year's tournament to be held

Your “Aww, Not Him Again?” Hate Week Thursday Evening Open Thread

Welcome to Day 4 of [DFO] Hate Week, where it appears we have come across a perennial topic of this-here exercise - Tom Brady, burgeoning oligarch. Given tonight's topic, there was only one real choice for tonight's theme song, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dbnm-0r3suM We all saw the NFC Championship game last week, and we all heard

Your “Oh God – did I wake up in 2018?” Sunday Evening Open Thread

Hi everyone, Don't worry, you haven't fallen into the Springfield Mystery Spot. It's your old pal, Beerguyrob, coming in off the bench to aid an exhausted don_t, who is away on an extended mission to get his name removed from the Juan Epstein files. Having shirked most of my responsibilities around here,

I don't really expect y'all to give a shit whether I achieve my goals or not but I'm writing this to keep myself accountable to myself. You're just innocent bystanders. If you, somehow, are able to get some positive motivation or laughs out of this, that's gravy. Without further ado: GOLF I

I didn't really want to call them Resolutions because they're really not. I tend to think of Resolutions as change you want to effect on your life. You are changing something you find deficient. Yes, I do have really high self esteem and yes I do think I'm God's Gift, so

Götterdammerung: Your Wednesday Night Postmortem Thread

Yeah, no Wumbo tonight. Barely a thread tonight. Who knows how long we have before we're shut down for *checks notes* Sexy Friday? Fortunately I got out of my gig early enough to avoid the news from last night's event, but tonight might not be fun. Just three of us, keep

Become Revolutionary: Be Decent

Donald Trump is a proven liar, fraudster, sex assaulter, top-secrets divulger, and is likely a foreign agent. This declining and feckless creep cares about nothing but his money. I’d offer my condolences to U.S. citizens, but 47 is the president of Puerto Rico too. And we don’t get to vote

Your “Dave Roberts is a Baby and Ken Rosenthal is a Toad” Wednesday Open Thread

If you haven't been paying attention the San Diego Padres for nearly all of their existence, I don't blame you. It has been a deep, dark place to venture into, and unless you live here, why the hell would you? But since signing Manny Machado in 2019, this team has been

The Voodoo He Do So Well: 2024 Stillers What-Have-You

Yinz already know I'm going through the "life transition," and whatever. I'll take my D- on this, and be happy not be exiled to Lowratio's outhouse for a fortnight. Between my work computer not having access to funny gifs, and my home computer is suddenly quite ill, on top of everything...
