  • What do you think of the very angry sport fan ?

    Jump

  • AFAICT, the outcome of the game has nothing to do with the athletes. It's based on how hard the fans hoped and prayed for their selected team to prevail. Other than that, it comes down to corruption and incompetence among the officials.

    What was your favorite Saturday morning cartoon(s) as a kid?

    Jump

  • Old School Bugs & Daffy. The Pink Panther. Scooby Doo. Jam out with the Schoolhouse Rock. Then after lunch, This Week in Baseball, American Bandstand, Soul Train & Wide World of Sports.

  • Can anyone confirm accuracy?

    Jump

  • I think simply knowing what the "F" is means you're old and a nerd.

  • Great addition to any vessel

    Jump

  • You can also face forward and imagine the word "PISS" in the water.

  • Those of you that back your vehicle into parking spots, why do you do it?

    Jump

  • I swear part of it is regional. In the mid-Atlantic region - low volume lot, perpendicular spaces, maybe 1/2 full at max - you can watch people spend minutes faffing around to back into a spot.

  • In America, crisp is used to describe natural food that is very fresh or a nice, cold morning. But crispy is used to describe food that is cooked so long it's become crunchy.

    Jump

  • And South Central, where a Crisp is a dyslexic gangbanger.

  • Have you given up on America?

    Jump

  • Given up? I don't know. I've been appalled pretty much non-stop since 2000, though. When we were taught history, the X'ers learned that the pendulum always swings back the other way. And when you looked back, the notion always kind of held water. But, draw a line from Nixon through Reagan, the Bushes, to Trump, and the conclusions you'll draw are pretty grim.

    There was an influential statement that was true in 1990 that was haunting, though: “The only presidential democracy with [more than 41 years] of constitutional continuity is the United States.” (I think there are around 5 others now between 40 and 70-something years old now.) Despite having a long run, this system isn't particularly sturdy.

    We'll see, I guess.

  • "He's coding! I need a red bull, cargo shorts, and quiet classic rock, stat!"

  • Why is nobody mad about TGI Fridays taking the lords name in vain?

    Jump

  • It's singular, but (strangely) possessive. Like, O'Malley's implies O'Malley's Bar, this would be the restaurant that belongs to TGIF.

  • Encourage them to get married. It'll put an end to that shit tout suite.

  • What's the scariest experience you've ever had?

    Jump

  • Got launched off the side of a boat near Tokyo in January. Wasn't very buoyant due to heavy winter clothing and the cold water was... something else. Felt like I was sinking down forever. When I did resurface, it took a long time for them to rig up a ladder for me to climb aboard the adjacent ship.

  • Is the person who winks the Winkor and the person who receives the wink the Winkee ?

    Jump

  • I just saw an episode of 8oo10cdc where Suzy Dent specifically said these aren't words. My money's on Suzy.

  • M-x Ctrl-? Why?

  • "I'm socially liberal but fiscally conservative" - What do you think when you hear that?

    Jump

  • To an extent, you can make an argument for each individually. But they don't mix. After a while, you'd be a walking contradiction. For a fun *exercise, try to imagine the opposite.

  • Dead on - mid 1990s.

  • Is it weird to hate a language because it bring up bad memories/feelings?

    Jump

  • I think HK Cantonese is aggressive in much the same way as Boston English is. Speaking HK Cantonese puts me in a whole different persona than speaking Beijing Mandarin. But I'm 1000x more competent in the latter.

    Instead of throwing scoops of sodium chloride on the snow and ice, I'd much rather use pure sodium.
