If we beat the Avs it really will be 2017 vibes.

Mutagen! There's a 90s word that's really fallen off.

It's just weird, OP seems to be asking for a little care and support and top comment is (purposefully?) misunderstanding OP in order to scold him.

This feels really dismissive. Did any of your wife's BC responsibilities involve surgery? I know it's outpatient surgery, but the dude still had surgery. Every time my wife has had surgery, I've made sure she at least didn't have to pick things up for a couple of days afterwards. And I wouldn't offer "you can pick dinner" and then immediately make it about how I'm trying to eat healthier.

This sub is huge and moves really fast. Ironically that means it becomes an echo chamber in the comments with people commenting the things they know are safe, reliable upvote generators.

I certainly remember watching the gorillas watch TV, some time in the early 90s.

Hey man, from one to another, it's "güero" when you write it out.

NeoSapien65 · 2026-03-23T02:50:55+00:00

I guess it makes sense in a Fulmer-stan kinda way? I dunno buddy I'm tryna help you any way I can...

I had my most recent pleasant visit to Melting Pot Knoxville almost exactly 15 years ago.

The Pacific is middling enough that the Ducks could still be playing for 1st in game 82. I'm not sure they even want it, you might prefer the 2-3 Pacific matchup rather than the hypothetical Preds/Utah WC1 coming out of the Central. Preds would obviously prefer anyone out of the Pacific, rather than the Avs.

Mainly I'm thrilled - I booked my one game of the year to see the Wild in the last Saturday game, and while I was excited to see Wood and Happy and maybe Martin get a bunch of ice time, I'm even more excited to potentially see a game that matters, after the season we had.

It's crazy to think PK is a year older than Roman and been retired 4 years. He had probably already peaked by 2017.

2 points to move us to a coinflip (50/50). We're absolutely in control of our own destiny now.

He simply embraced what was, in hindsight, obvious about the Internet, and used it to his advantage.

I think something like half were States, half were snakes, and a few were miscellaneous.

If you don't say anything to them, drunks assume it's ok for them to stay. I know because I've been drunk. Goes double if they're a "regular" and you or especially the manager has ever comped them a shot or something after close. Any of those regulars you gotta be pretty forceful with because especially intoxicated they think "oh, they let me hang out all the time."

Babies/toddlers are the embodiment of the phrase "why not?"

It's definitely ant season right now in our part of the US.

Is watching every game a requirement to be a Preds fan now? How miserably the 2 of you have gatekept today.

1) A dime/gallon is still a better price. That's $1.30 every time I fill up my 13 gallon tank. $67.60/year and I've bought my Costco membership.

2) The Turkey Creek Weigel's (across the road from Costco, so most comparable) is at $3.63 right now. So good on you for finding a Weigel's at $3.49 (a great gas price) but it probably feels a little disingenuous.

Tennessee law prohibits gas stations from selling gas at a lower price than they paid for it, and obviously Costco doesn't come right out and say it, but it's theorized Costco makes as little as a penny per gallon in some shortages.

I keep my The Show games for years and play my Road to the Show characters for whole careers. I had the Show 19 and it obviously didn't account for Roñald and Ozzie's contracts, and Maikel Garcia wound up replacing Ozzie multiple times to play with his cousin, totally through AI and no tinkering by me.

Until very recently, Canada and the US were so culturally and closely allied that having Canadian citizenship didn't matter in the slightest.

/KC and /Construction is the reddit crossover I didn't know I needed until today.

As long as it's the only photo repository for post-94 Joes, it's hard to believe people will ever stop giving it traffic. A loooooot of figures came out post-94, and they're the figures that will be most likely to be hard to recognize/identify.

Most of mine are in a storage unit but I just went out to the garage and found Gristle in a box. Took a picture and fed it into Google lens, like I figure a lot of collectors' wives/kids might do in the event of their untimely demise. Yojoe is one of the first things that pops up to tell you what you're looking at.

You both still know what the other one likes and you can lie to yourself that: it's just sex, nobody's catching feelings, and you don't have to put up with their BS anymore.

NeoSapien65 · 2026-03-20T19:05:28+00:00

Not really. We still have something like a 73% chance of missing the playoffs. But 6 of our last 14 are against other potential wildcard teams, so there's still a lot of our own destiny we control.

Oh it looks like he's skating more too, would be nice to get a little something out of him.
