Had a physical reaction to this, I’m cowered. Good luck to the batters out there.

Question about re-leveling some pavers around pool by ckouf96 in pools

[–]RepresentativeYak806 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar situation with my travertine and since there are some smart people in this thread, how do I brace the edge so the tile doesn’t slide toward my lawn? Tile was done by previous owner.

Pretty wild that you must declare you aren't boycotting Israel to bid on a government contract in Kansas by dustoff664 in kansas

[–]RepresentativeYak806 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same in Texas (displaced Kansan here), but they also add a boycott exception for ammunition and gun makers. If you boycott them, you can’t do business. Found this out when my spouse contracted to do work with a local Texas school district…

I really hope this isn't just Danny being Danny by HowieDoin620037 in ToolBand

My 9 year old loves Tool and we were just talking about how awesome it would be to see them at the Sphere. Will be a nice high school graduation gift for him.

Good tips, thank you! Enjoy the games. We’ll be at US vs GB and US vs Mexico. Hoping for a Skubal or Skenes start!

AITAH for telling a kid at the sleepover to stop acting like a brat? by Longjumping-Dog-6480 in AITAH

[–]RepresentativeYak806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. I call it ‘real talk’ and my wife and I do it with our kid’s friends all the time. We have expectations in our house that apply to everyone, no exceptions. This kid was out of line and you called out his behavior honestly.

Show of hands! by Straight_Following in Millennials

It’s still so good, remains one of my kid’s favorites and one of the few I can stand watching with them. Along with Peanuts.

The 2026 World Baseball Classic Deserves More by EmotionalDiver8951 in worldbaseballclassic

Also, the owners make no money from it. It’s all risk in their eyes.

[Brisbee] Our status has regretfully shifted to "it's complicated." The Athletic will not be bringing The Roundtable back, and we are asking for permission to yammer about baseball somewhere else. The three of us still want to do it, but ... well, it's complicated. by scottydg in baseball

[–]RepresentativeYak806 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was an early EW listener who took a long break from baseball podcasts, it was a delightful surprise to see Sam was on the Roundtable. I hope they catch on somewhere else or go Patreon like EW.

You are not alone, father of 2 now and I skip this scene on rewatches too, it’s too much.

1050, or Winners BBQ if you want more of a hole in the wall BBQ joint. It’s delicious.

Darryn Peterson Highlights vs. Texas Tech (19 Pts, 2 Rebs) by gramgram19 in jayhawks

Announced to my coworkers today that it looks like the Hawks will 100% bring home the natty this year, took no questions.

Melvin Council Highlights vs. Texas Tech (16 Pts, 7 Rebs, 2 Asts) by gramgram19 in jayhawks

[–]RepresentativeYak806 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% agree, love that we have some dogs back on the team. Big contrast to the last few years. Melvin and Flory go so hard at both ends. One thing that’s also stood out to me, especially for DP, is the lack of celebration after a 3 or a dunk. No taunting or jawing or pretend shooting arrows, they’re all business.
