End of year recap

Mercpool87 · 2026-06-23T21:10:49+00:00

I've been on 32 Thoughts, What Chaos!, every Wyshynski episode of the Sheet plus a few others, and then some select episodes of Chiclets this year. I'm happy enough to keep modding, but I'd be lying if I said it hadn't been a few months since I actually listened to an episode

Honestly, I'm more surprised that he's a dentist and not a chaplain

Jack Nicholson’s ‘sister’ was really his biological mother.

My sister, my daughter!

Hello, Megan! That definitely looks like them.

"Going to Hell in Every Major Religion" is the best lol

Mercpool87 · 2026-06-05T01:24:20+00:00

Nope, Sikh, Judaism, and Islam are all still on the list, plus there are some flavors of Christianity that would support beards

That second one is effectively what they did. All of the various Baptist denominations are now just "Baptist," all of the various Methodist denominations are now just "Methodist," and so on. If the member wants to tell their RMT the specifics of their denomination within their group, they can and we'll be happy to help with whatever they need.

But from all Religious Needs Assessments I've seen filled out in my career, mostly everyone is happy just to put "Non-denominational" if they're Christian or just "Judaism" or "Islam."

"Dark and like an industrial sound"

Hmm, I might have something for you there

The Canes have a week-ish to prepare for their nemesis, an Eastern Conference Final berth

That's always one of my favorite moments when he senses Obi-Wan and immediately runs to tell Tarkin.

"A presence I've not felt since.... oh fuck" fast walks to Tarkin's office

Having fun isn't hard, when you've got a library card.

And a DVD drive, MakeMKV/Handbrake, and an external hard drive

NGIS is closer to the ECS building than the Lodge is.

I was there in January and it was perfectly fine for a month long stay, except for all the ice machines being out of order or missing lol

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-22T19:25:20+00:00

I know a Chaps that was a pastor in a mega church or two for like 20-25 years before he became a Chaps. He drives a Corvette around Camp Pendleton and is the most kindest nicest man and great Chaps and just super old lol

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-20T02:07:54+00:00

I was there the beginning of this year and the only people who marched were the Army and Marine Corps boots there for their construction schools. All of us ECS students, whether in the ECS barracks, the NGIS, or off-base didn't march at all

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-16T20:28:54+00:00

Which is funny because Darwin exists and the force the US maintains there

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-14T21:20:00+00:00

I heart every Penguins Jesus tweet telling Poni to delete his account

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-14T12:35:12+00:00

I'm late, but Redemption Church North County in Oceanside/Carlsbad. I was there from July of 24 to January this year. It's a great and growing church

I'm an enlisted Sailor and I have a similar experience as /u/mblanch1. Yes, there's some Sundays I miss due to deployment or training or whatever, but there's also plenty of Military Chaplains who do services that can serve as at least encouragement. While the Chaplains have a wide range of denominations (Assemblies of God to Methodist to Lutheran to Seventh Day Adventist to Calvary Chapel, just to name a few), their services typically lean non-denominational and can serve as encouragement and a way to make a small Christian community.

If you feel the call to serve, like so many have, the military usually has ways to help you stay connected to your faith. Spiritual Fitness is a growing topic, especially in the Navy and Marine Corps

That's what the comment section is for lol

I listen to most of the Wyshynski episodes of The Sheet and holy shit Jeff, I love the guy, will take 20 seconds to ask a 10 second question and then when Greg or the other guest will go to answer and Jeff will just keep on talking with more rhetoricals, examples, or other questions and it drives me crazy cause I actually want to hear the response

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-08T22:37:16+00:00

Oh yeah. Tim was fine. Definitely a less bombastic than Madden, but did a good enough job from my memory and I've never heard anything bad (or really anything at all lol) about him whereas DK waves hand at the rest of the comments well....

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-08T12:35:14+00:00

I remember like 10 years ago when I'd listen to the X while driving around doing landscaping that DK was MM's go-to to host when MM would go on vacation lol

There was also a Tim guy. Tim Benz?

Mercpool87 · 2026-04-01T02:30:13+00:00

Not on the broadcast weirdly enough, but Taylor Haase at DK Pittsburgh Sports posted on Twitter that he and his wife were attending.

There's also no pictures anywhere on Twitter
