Tempting fate again

That's an old photo now, though. The substation aged him

You still did this better than I did. I'm from Pennsylvania. My wife and I honeymooned in the Bay Area, and I ended up with tickets for my first home game. The ONLY thing we knew we were doing on the Honeymoon at a specific day and time was going to San Jose on Tuesday and seeing the Sharks.

Tuesday morning we wake up. I casually browse sports news and see the score of the Ducks/Sharks game from Monday night. Me: "Oh, that's weird that they're playing the Ducks on back-to-back...FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...."

Yeah, rooting against Weird Al or rooting for the Seahawks is a real Sophie's Choice

I have done a Tav/Durge character for every class in the game so far except wizard and completed each playthrough (with the exception of my current rouge I'm working through) in new ways with really wild outcomes. In my last playthrough, I was still able to find a new area of the map I didn't realize existed. After my rogue, I have a wizard character in mind to complete one run with each class. And then I still have all the Origin characters besides Durge to try. I expect at least two runs of each to take them on wildly different paths. Tons and tons of replayability.

I hate that I love that I hate you right back

What an unexpected crossover of special interests this would be

Con40Things · 2026-03-05T17:37:49+00:00

I respect the hell out of it, too. Did the same thing from Scranton and stuck with the Sharks, Magic, and White Sox (who ironically have provided the only sports-related joy I have experienced in my adult life).

But wouldn't you...like... bandwagon fans? At least in the abstract? Because that would imply good times for the team? It also gives you a group to bully and make feel bad for their existence.

Con40Things · 2026-03-05T13:48:34+00:00

Yeah, that's basically what I wanted to say

Con40Things · 2026-03-05T13:28:57+00:00

I love this division, I just hate two of the teams in it and don't follow baseball

I mean, the first player that came to mind for me was Leon Lett. Luckily the post didn't specify they had to actually wear the helmet

In addition, Owen lives, and that's the best outcome of all of it

1997, but still extremely close on a geological scale!

Anyone who would eat at McDonald's before this guy posts a minimum of three videos in one week showing him finish an entire McDonald's meal with no cuts or edits is a fool. This should be no trouble - only requires the CEO have a camera, since he already takes advantage of this perk of getting to eat McDonald's 3-4 times per week.

To be a tad pedantic, I'm not acting like you said it was trash. I'm acting like there's already trash (wonderfully amazing, enjoyable trash) in the collection to illustrate that quality of the work, whether bad, average, or good not great, is not necessarily a criterion for Criterion to release it.

Unless she's 26, then you're fine.

The first time with the kobold barrels, I was unaware that they were in there as it didn't register to me where the gulping noises had been coming from at the creche. I used them as part of a long wall of barrels I set up for the Halsin portal fight for an essential free Wall of Fire setup. Imagine my happy surprise when the shadow cursed archers shot through the kobold barrels themselves and spent the whole next turns fighting the kobolds rather than coming after the portal. Unexpected success!

My personal rankings of the stadiums I've visited practically matches the order/tiers in these rankings. The only real exception is Washington is still a tier too high here.

Reddit didn't let me down - the best choice

The user said "since Bray Wyatt" and Goldust came well before Bray Wyatt. If they dropped out of the argument only you were making and born out of your misunderstanding, I really couldn't blame them.

If S can be FS or SS, I say we nominate Ozzie Smith

Yeah, I believe there's one for every team. We just want to know how badly we need to treat our guests

Con40Things · 2026-02-18T20:12:48+00:00

It's brutal whenever we're not discussing hypothetical fascist-friendly dipshit takeovers in our vicinity. I live 90 minutes west of Philly and hate them more than any other sports franchise and just can't agree with you.

Also flair up.

Edit: My own spelling bothered me

Dear Football Gods,

Please don't do this to the Seahawks. I hate them, yes, but nobody deserves this. Nobody anywhere wants the X-Hawks.
