Mittwoch Holiday Week What The Crap Else Are You Doing This Week Thread

WCS - December 28, 2022December 28, 2022

Welcome reprobates, degenerates, and occasional nice people. It's that weird middle-of-the-week day in between Christmas and New Year's, and this year it happens to ba Wednesday for Peak Weirdness. Kids don't have school, and most people I know who have actual job-type-job take this week off, too. Where does that

The Dream of Colonial Revenge: MAR v. FRA Slave LaboUr Cup Semi

Don T - December 14, 2022December 14, 2022

You know how it is. Some foreigners come to your backyard like they own the place and steamroll over everything: freedom, language, culture, livelihoods...

Your friendly Northern Ontario neighborhood hobo enthusiast is not able to take care of tonight's Open Thread as he has some pressing business to attend to. Trust me, I don't ask questions I don't want to know the answer to. That's a good life lesson right there. Seriously, there are some

Game Time Decision - November 18, 2022November 18, 2022

Ssiball, why did I agree to creating a preview of a sport that I barely follow and for a country that I've never been to. I'm not sure either. The closest I'll ever get to there is a former co-worker is from there and I saw some of Seoul when

World Cup of (Slave Labour) Croatia Preview: You will Nazi them coming
