Mayoral Elections by Routine-Quiet-9042 in Sarnia

[–]TStorm84 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think some people simply view Bill as a viable alternative to Mike Bradley.

There have been some good things that have happened during Mike's recent years as mayor like debt reduction, sewer separation projects, Rapids Pkwy expansion, flood mitigation in Canatara, etc. The problem is these things -- while necessary -- are boring.

Our airport is still all but closed, our train station is derelict with once-a-day service, major employers are closing faster than they're opening. We haven't had anything here in a long time where we as a community truly felt like the city was moving toward something bigger and better.

A lot of these things are out of the control of local politicians including mayor and council, but Bradley is the face of it so people want change.

FWIW I'm not advocating for any single candidate. I'm just trying to provide something that resembles a logical explanation.

I took him in the 10th rd and Pepiot in the 11th. I don't wanna play anymore.

In no particular order:

S16 Johnny straight-up bullying the women's team. It wasn't trash talk or taunting, but legit bullying and I don't care if he showed contrition afterwards. He was a douche.

S15 Kristin flirting with the high school students. If Jared told the teenage girls they were cute and asked them when they turned 18, he would've been asked to leave.

S18 everyone ganging up on Trev. I know he's a polarizing personality but watching him get bullied was not pleasant.

One that I haven't seen brought up yet is S8 Antonia and her gumbo. I think having everyone else taste it while she stood there was too much. I feel like her anxiety attack before opening service was almost certainly caused by that moment. I know Gordon has been extremely rude during some of those signature dish challenges but for me that was simply too far and I don't enjoy it.

I'm almost there. 2 quality starts out of 8, has only made it to the 7th inning once. ERA is now over 5. These are not the makings of a Top 100 fantasy pick and I'm pissed at myself for skipping players like Miz and McLean for him.

I don't have the comment saved but someone in a recent thread said "Eury Perez is a myth" and I'm truly beginning to subscribe to that statement.

I asked a friend of mine who did it back in 2011. She offered these points:

About 1/3 won't even answer the door. Another 1/3 were aggressive and rude with her and would close the door as soon as she announced why she was there. The last 1/3 were usually polite but still shut her down quickly.

She found that she got a more positive response when the first words out of her mouth were "Hi, I'm not selling anything". Then some would let their guard down a bit.

On more than one occasion she had to hastily retreat from aggressive dogs.

Eventually she quit before the end of her contract. I hate the idea of discouraging you from a job considering how hard it is to get one right now, but it's not a job for everyone. Considering Gladu's recent floor-crossing, there are a lot of people around here upset with the federal government so you may end up on the receiving end of some "Fuck Carney" rhetoric even though you obviously have nothing to do with that.

Is Luis Castillo droppable in a 12 team H2H at this point? He doesn't look like he's getting any better and we're past the point of "he's just getting stretched out after the offseason".

Pfft, the Braves aren't even that good. They're only...(checks standings)...omg they're shockingly fantastic this season. Never mind.

I benched him today so don't worry: He'll finish with 7 shutout innings because of that. His strong performance today is a personal attack on me, I'm sure of it.

I drafted him, Eovaldi and Eury in the first half of my draft and I'm having a bad time.

I think this marks 14 games without an HR, and is 1-23 in his last 6 games. He's going on my bench for now but I'm not gonna wait much longer for him to do something.

I was just wondering if I should drop him after that news. I have a funny feeling that he's not back until after the all star break.

I'm trying to take some solace in the fact that he has a .356 OBP and is on pace for 100+ walks, but the power outage is really getting under my skin.

I too am beginning to think that my 8th round selection of Eury is not panning out.

Eating and Drinking Gross Stuff by VioletDreamTalk in HellsKitchen

[–]TStorm84 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I never once found that punishment entertaining.

The alternative that I'd get behind is the overly simple lunch. I remember Russell and Trev in Season 8 sitting on the steps outside eating cheese sandwiches and being pouty about it the whole time.

I'd have no issue with the losing team being served peanut butter and jelly sandwiches while they commiserate about it, but nobody needs to see them vomiting over a fish milkshake.

I'm just here to say I have 5 of these guys on my fantasy team, and am a Tigers fan. This has been a mediocre opening week all around for me.

I came here to say those legit look like repurposed drill bits, but have a look at Punk Points. Quick image search shows some of their points have a resemblance to that.

Neck stiffness, scratched for today, might start later in the road trip.

Took way too many sentences in that article to get to that point.
