By "that much" you mean…

By "that much" you mean essentially ~2 Rice Krispie treat edibles and ~1-2 joints worth of flower? I moreso question the critical thinking skills of a group of individuals that tosses it into the bathroom garbage can instead of flushing it down the toilet just inches away. 

Good luck watching at a…

Good luck watching at a sports book without paying at least $100-$250 for a diner style chair. You can forget about it on a Saturday or Sunday or if you want a recliner (was generally $500 mínimums for recliners at the on strip sports books this past weekend).

I complain about the cost …

I complain about the cost (you're just not going to save that much money by cutting the cord anymore) but Youtube TV is awesome. It is essentially all on demand because with unlimited DVR you can record everything you have an interest in. We never watch TV live anymore (even sports on tape delay to skip commercials). It is easy to shut on and off month to month when you don't use it if you aren't sharing with other people, and easy to add and remove RedZone/HBO/whatever depending on the time of year.

However, their on channel guide and interface is still pretty garbage, and I really like Hulu's at my in laws place, but haven't used it enough to know if the DVR and programming is on par with Youtube TV.

Careful searching on reddit…

Careful searching on reddit will find you some streaming links that are pretty good but sadly not the gold standard quality of NHLStreams' workaround for NHL season pass via VLC up until a few years ago unfortunately. 

Even with the 6 linked …

Even with the 6 linked "family" accounts still limited by watching simultaneously on 3 devices so $22 makes sense (this coming from a schmuck paying for his family's TV access and is still salty about the increase for Viacom channels that no one cares about).

Is there a better summary of…

Is there a better summary of America than people refusing to wear masks for *reasons* while companies pump out $13 masks?

Also TIL no-touch keychains exist. Strange times indeed.

This post is further proof that stats should be a basic element of high school education. 

Google "Alex Guerrero" and…

Google "Alex Guerrero" and you will have plenty of info but essentially he is a quack that preaches alternative medicine and alkaline diets. Mostly associated with athletes and celebrities that lack the basic understanding that the body MUST maintain acid-base homeostasis and while your urine pH may change with your diet your stomach and blood pH will not maintain a pH outside a specific range unless you have a disease process, are in the ICU, or dead/dying. While alkaline diets can very easily be healthy, it is because you have made the switch to eating unprocessed and whole foods and drinking more water, which does not require paying twice as much for fancy bottled water.

They are both ridiculous and…

They are both ridiculous and unwarranted but I think it might be a tad easier for people to forgive a (drunk) football player who gets involved in a bar fight with (most likely drunk) rival fans vs one who gets drunk and fist fights his sober girlfriend.

7p - 7a night shifter. I only wish I could give you a "usual" sleep pattern.

As far as life changing…

As far as life changing experiences I don't think anything can touch the change that was ushered in with Mario 64 (and then OOT). Just, mind blowing. Upgrades are too incremental now to get that same drastic change.

The frat that guards it…

The frat that guards it starts sunday evening for the week and it was tagged prior to that.

Only stops on OOB under 2 mins now.

Still would give anything to have the MGoBlog HD app back again. 

Those aren’t even simple,…

Those aren’t even simple, just plain terrible.

Power through the first

Power through the first season of Parks & Rec and it is still the most fulfilling show I've seen on TV. Beginning to end easily tops The Office in overall quality and what you get from it.

Narcos and End of the ****ing World (quick binge watch) are also great.

Ahh, hockey plinko is finally

Ahh, hockey plinko is finally upon us. 

I just don't get it. Trae

I just don't get it. Trae Young turns it over for the 5th time trying to split two defenders on fast break. CBS immediately proceeds with "but he's locked in with 6 assists."

 

EDIT: And while typing this post he turns it over AGAIN to give up a backbreaking 3.

Was planning on making

Was planning on making donations to The Human Fund for family christmas this year but I suppose I could give some extra to my close second favorite charity.

Received: First satellite TV

Received: First satellite TV followed by 4 hours of dangling off the roof with my old man in December trying to get it mounted.

 

Gave: This year giving a Switch to my brother and his 8, 10, and 11 year old girls later today. Picked up Mario Odyssey for him (will be nostalgia overload for us both) and Mario Kart + extra controllers for the girls (might have to play Sunday Bloody Sunday on repeat tonight).

If jailbroken you can install

If jailbroken you can install your own IPAs (iphone app files), or unjailbroken you can sideload it but have to reinstall every 7 days. However, I thought when the app initially was discontinued Brian cut it off from pulling in site data, which is why I deleted it. So my answer is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

On a side note, if anyone has the MGoBlogHD .ipa and would be kind enough to send it to me that would just be fantastic.

S-Town and Finding Richard

S-Town and Finding Richard Simmons are utterly fascinating one-off series type podcasts. The FilmDrunk Frotcast is prolly the funniest I've found so far that both the future wife and I can both enjoy, and the Drew and Mike Podcast is still going strong. 

Ugh.

Ugh.

This x100. Recently rolled

This x100. Recently rolled out 360's in all the rooms and the only game selections at first were $5 low budget kiddy games. Call about donating your old 360 games or new in package high end coloring books intended for teens/adults, nail polish, etc. The little things like that make a huge different when the teens are stuck at mott for 2 weeks at a time over the holidays.

Don't listen to this man, he performs terribly in his league.

Surreal. Watched on Center

Surreal. Watched on Center Ice and immediately remembered the Jiri Fischer scene. Another reminder that EVERYONE should have their CPR/AED certification, even if you're not in healthcare.

Looks like a terrible gallery split into two parts though.

Sorry if it's a stupid

Sorry if it's a stupid question, but would the composition of these jerseys affect removal of the numbers down the road? I was figuring on just buying the jersey closest to my size and then sending it to sportsK to have the numbers taken off the back, or will there be lingering traces of the removal?
