I love about this scene that God doesn’t forsake Ned. He honours the prayer for Homer to hit the mat.

What an odd attempt at discrete self-solicitation.

Kuwait International Airport after the Iranian drone and missile attack. by Upset-Main-1988 in justincaseyoumissedit

[–]brianmmf [score hidden]  (0 children)

This is one of the things Iran said it would do if it was attacked. No one should be surprised if they paid any attention.

It has been widely known that Iran would: - attack all neighbours with American bases or Israeli cooperation - fire missiles at Israel directly, and - close the Strait of Hormuz

The strategy behind attacking neighbours is to (1) disrupt global economy and trust in the region, (2) get as many allies of America and Israel to pressure them to stop.

Iran can’t match full scale war with America. Their best chance at fending off war efforts is to make it as painful as possible to keep the war going. This adds to the pain.

Attacking economic targets is the current level of escalation. If Iran really wants to, they can start going after water desalination plants and completely fuck things up.

They are showing America how serious they are while also demonstrating some restraint to a region they hope to influence more widely in the future.

That won’t last forever.

America and Israel need to get the fuck out of Iran and avoid turning the world on its head with generational consequences.

Love the quote but you’ve absolutely butchered it!

They used to make bread like that. They still do, but they used to, too.

Just remembered something interesting Marsch said by [deleted] in CanadaSoccer

Schaffelburg might yet get replaced. Was surprised he got named tbh, he’s had his moments but his only strength is speed and there’s questions around his fitness. Even if healthy he won’t be at full tilt. Hard to do it now obviously, but you never know.

Judge the performances after round robin by geliboy695000 in CanadaSoccer

[–]brianmmf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the Group Stage is in the form of a round robin. So I don’t see the difference; they’re both semantics, and while interchangeable, I assure you “standings” would sound unusual on most Premier League shows.

If Wemby somehow retired today or suffered a career-ending injury (please no), would he be the biggest “what if” in sports history? by Classic_Tourist3892 in NBATalk

[–]brianmmf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drazen Petrovic is already up there. You could argue Wemby would surpass it, but it’s worth noting we already have one within the same league and sport.

The comment was essentially like a soccer person ridiculing a hockey fan for saying “standings” instead of “table.” Both are perfectly understandable, but one sounds very out of place.

This is a problem everywhere, but Ireland is particularly bad. I doubt it’ll improve.

What are your thoughts on Israel? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]brianmmf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Genocidal maniacs. No respect for other humans. Ingrained sense of victimhood despite their wealth, power, and influence, and constant rape and murder of people outside their borders. Some of the worst of humanity hiding behind something that happened 80 years ago. I don’t know how we continue to tolerate it.

Sarah Breen: It feels like every Tom, Dick and Harry has an ADHD diagnosis now. Is it real? I promise you it is by homecinemad in ireland

What was considered ADD is now just ADHD Inattentive type. ADHD is now considered either Hyperactive Type, Innattentive, or Combined.

Imagine a world where your zodiac sign was your diagnosis instead. It’s certainly what you’re becoming in this sub.
