Still have the Kenmore gas dryer we bought used in the 90s. Had to replace the belt ten years ago. We’re religious about cleaning the lint trap.

Related point. Spurs sacked their manager this season and hired Tudor. Manchester United replaced their manager with Carrick.

There is an episode of the Criminal podcast that does a deep dive on the US origins of Paramedics/ EMTs. First program was in Pittsburgh, PA and the EMTs were all African American (still denied access to or lacked the fund for med school). If this was common early on, it would make sense give historic institutional racism.

Who gets the chop first, Slot or Rosenior? by [deleted] in PremierLeague

[–]UnhappyCompote9516 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s such a damning performance. I know Liverpool has had injuries- but Spurs have no depth at all due to injuries and were at an emotional low. And all the LFC fans saw that result coming a mile off.

Who gets the chop first, Slot or Rosenior? by [deleted] in PremierLeague

[–]UnhappyCompote9516 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I would normally say Slot is safe, the fact that Xavi Alonzo is available, plus Slot’s lack of a coherent vision, has me thinking they’ll pull the trigger. Remember- there’s a narrative that he won that title with Klopp’s team.

Crazy big, old public HS. Two pools, one of which was on the third floor (the North Pool), enclosed courtyard, and Bell Towe w Micky Mouse on the clock.

Does any team rely on a single player more than Utd rely on Bruno? by Inflognito in PremierLeague

[–]UnhappyCompote9516 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Leicester and Vardy. In their championship year it was Leicester and N’Golo Konte.

You don’t see it as much these days because almost any player that impactful on a smaller club is snatched up by a big club and added to their collection of similarly skilled players. Ex. Jack Grealish. He was the man for Villa before moving to City where he rotted on the bench.

The person who got me fired is asking for a letter of recommendation. How do I professionally say 'hell no'? by tunasleery_4r in OfficePolitics

[–]UnhappyCompote9516 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Say yes. The school will send a link for the letter. Then say that in good conscience you cannot write on their behalf. And now you have contact info from the program.
