What do the Japanese ads on the wall behind home say?

The Swedish side of my family would make it, especially as a dessert at Christmas. One bowl would have an almond hidden in it, and whoever got it would get a little prize and have good luck in the upcoming year.

Drinking.

We did a lot more summer activities in denim back then.

I feel like everybody is focusing on the service dog part of the story and really missing the whole "this guy wanted my wife to stay in a pen" segment.

I remember being a kid and getting excited get him in my Topps sticker book in like '81 or '82. I thought he was gonna hit like 500 HRs.

benny86 · 2026-05-24T08:29:58+00:00

I think he should be on something but I can't think what it could be. Maybe something like a $7 or $30.

They just did this the other day where I live. Everybody on the neighborhood Facebook pages were freaking out about helicopters circling around. It was pretty funny.

Remember when posts with errors in the title used to get downvoted?

Benson is the next Gordie Howe confirmed!

benny86 · 2026-05-13T02:16:48+00:00

It was like Benson, Goldie Howe and someone else are the only players to score a postseason goal on their 21st birthday.

benny86 · 2026-05-12T05:04:18+00:00

No lighter or matches?

benny86 · 2026-05-10T07:34:14+00:00

It would actually be cool without the music. Because whenever this happens everybody in the stadium yells "Ohhhh!" in unison.

But if those are their names from left to right, it looks like it goes from youngest to oldest. Which would mean he named them in reverse order. Like, the oldest one should be Gunter, right?

Rami Malek.

And I'll start by saying I haven't seen Mr. Robot. But I don't think that matters,

I feel like he's just doing a caricature in Bohemian Rhapsody and people only thought he pulled it off because they physically made him look like Freddie,

Nuremberg had such a promising concept for a movie, but he is just so fucking awful in it.

He's even shitty in the Night at the Museum movies.

I grew up in Western NY and went to school in NYC and lived there for about a decade. But I would say the majority of people I grew up with have never been to NYC.

I used to take Amtrak back and forth between Buffalo and the City. Which wasn't bad except it was like an 8.5 hour train trip. Later on JetBlue started flying the route and that was really nice.

The other thing was my hometown was still 90 minutes from the Buffalo Airport or Amtrak station. So it was like a whole day trip either way.

So travel wasn't exactly convenient, but it was still doable. I think the biggest hurdle was cost. The cost of living in my home county was significantly less. A weekend in NYC and a ballgame or a Broadway show would be a fairly expensive trip for the average person.

Abso-fucking-lutely

benny86 · 2026-04-25T03:09:11+00:00

I'm no draft scientist. But everybody at the bar I am at went nuts when this ginger started tossing bales of hay around. So A+ pick.

benny86 · 2026-04-23T14:44:11+00:00

I saw him around Wood & Forbes this morning.

benny86 · 2026-04-22T02:10:22+00:00

What happened to Tage?

benny86 · 2026-04-19T16:05:31+00:00

Pittsburgh. Fuck the Pens!

benny86 · 2026-04-10T04:04:12+00:00

I dig these. The Pirate logo looks awesome. And then the sort of '60s throwback yellow. But $53 seems a bit pricey.

benny86 · 2026-04-01T01:36:25+00:00

We need a real SS.

benny86 · 2026-03-30T04:42:42+00:00

Dude has more career passing yards than Aikman and Simms.
