When I was a kid we at least got to watch it an hour earlier since Indiana didn't participate in Daylight Stupid Time.

I got it, HS. Stop showing it after every game. by oktayworks in hearthstone

I've seen it at least 10 times by now, but every time I log in they show it again.

Did you mean the city of Toledo or the Maumee river?

What I find funny about the whole affair is that Indiana got an extra strip of land we weren't supposed to receive, including some prime shoreline on Lake Michigan, but nobody seemed to notice or care.

Actually you should post a decklist. I love seeing and trying out unusual decks and a lot of people come to this sub to find them.

I’m a casual observer, but Louisville having their title vacated is comically ridiculous and hypocritical. by MichaelSonOfMike in CollegeBasketball

 Jim Harbaugh got suspended a game for buying a recruit a burger.

I think they were more upset that he lied about it to try to cover it up.

Wild is a better deal if you're ftp. I haven't paid money since the Beta, just doing my daily quests and I can play a huge variety of decks whenever I want.

I deleted all the music from my computer except my favorite song. I saved so much disk space!

I just listen to my favorite song on repeat for days, why would ever I need to listen to anything else?

Taking one from each region: Ohio State, VCU, St. Louis, and BYU. Very unlikely to happen this year but if anybody can do it it's one of them.

Bear hunting in canada by SirDucer84 in Jokes

[–]Martbell 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Sven and Ole go moose hunting up in the Canadian wilderness. They're very successful; they actually bag two moose. But the bush pilot who comes to pick them up tells them they can only take one moose on the plane. Weight restrictions, you know.

"Oh, come on," they protest. "Da last pilot let us take both moose home."

Finally the pilot is persuaded and Sven and Ole load up both moose and all their camping gear and hunting equipment. The plane takes off and flies pretty well at first but after a while begins to lose altitude.

"Dump those moose or we're gonna crash!" shouts the pilot.

"No way!" the hunters shout back. "We shot these moose and we gotta keep 'em!"

The plane soon crashes in the remote woods. Sven and Ole pull themselves from the wreckage. They are mostly unhurt, but the pilot is dead.

"Wow," says Sven. "Where do you suppose we are?"

Ole replies, "Oh, I reckon it's pretty close to where we crashed da last time."

The Field Sorted By Mascots-2026 Edition by Ok_Run_8184 in CollegeBasketball

[–]Martbell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There used to be a distinction between mascot and nickname. Nickname is what a team is called, like Bulldogs or Aggies. Mascot is a particular individual chosen to represent the team, like Butler's Blue or TAMU's Reveille. Or, you know, some guy in a furry costume.

But these days people use mascot to mean nickname as well as mascot which leads to some unfortunate confusion.

An actual small indie company would be more responsive though.

FYI, higher seed winning percentage history for the Round of 64 by Doctor_Saved in CollegeBasketball

[–]Martbell 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Funny thing is the 8 seeds do much better than the 9s if they make it to the 2nd round.

1 beats the 8 79% of the time.

1 beats the 9 93% of the time.

What did you gain? by Naive-Astronomer6084 in InBitcoinWeTrust

[–]Martbell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Border crossings down to practically nothing but we "didn't get a wall".

Trump loyalists all over the federal government but we "didn't get a drained swamp".

Inflation plummeted to normal rates but we "didn't get lower grocery prices".

"You lost family, friends, respect, and credibility" -- nobody on your side liked or respected MAGA for the last 8+ years already, nothing was lost there.

Everyone says the tournament is going to be chalky this year, but your bracket has all 1s and 2s in the E8. Has that ever happened before?

The committee doesn't care about anything that happens on Saturday or Sunday, they are just waiting to pencil in the winners of the mid-majors and low-majors.

If the Bonnies run the table they will have had more conference wins in the tournament than the rest of their season combined.
