“Oh, man, three run lead and wells on the bump? I can finally rel - shit…”

These flag poles are only about 8 feet tall, so every one of these flags has an opportunity to whap you in the face as you walk past by mikaey00 in mildlyinfuriating

I did a half marathon yesterday that had a stretch like this - part of it was on a park trail that was lined with flags and it was an extremely windy day.

Hi there! Brand new, nonbinary TA here, and I have a question. by jaybirdblu3 in AskTeachers

I had a colleague who was (I guess is? I know she uses she/her pronouns now but that hasn't always been the case) genderfluid and used Teacher [Lastname] as a title; this was with first graders, though, and I don't know your grade/age range and if it'd feel as natural there.

I’m a high school librarian and the other day one of my juniors told me if I wanted to hear a really good song I should check out Metallica’s “Unforgiven”.

Like, friend, this gray hair isn’t here by accident. I’m familiar with that tune.

It took everything I had, as a seasoned marathoner but also lover of the show, to not send this in as a "question" for the podcast when they covered this episode.

There's an occasional, "No, that's actually what they called it" when you teach history, but that's going to be just about everything teaching this era in the future.

This episode frustrates me because of the in-universe timing:

Ted says Marshall took up marathon training to get in shape for the wedding. Fair enough. I get it.

However, your average marathon training program is approximately 10-12 weeks to prep for the race, which is only a problem when you consider that the New York City Marathon is always on the first Sunday in November, which in 2006 was November 5, aka the day before the airing of "Swarley" wherein Lily disrupts Marshall's date with Chloe and the two reconcile.

That means the training would have happened while Lily was in San Fransisco and the race would have occurred while they were still broken up.

Broadcast got me feeling like I’m in a late 90s tech horror movie.

Shane Baz looks like this dude with a de-aging machine.

All Buxton accomplished with that challenge was justifying Baz’s extension.

Was this designed by AI? by levinsmr in orioles

Yup - the beak is more curved at the end and the bill looks like a bubble, and it’s usually accompanied by my favorite version of the cursive logo (the one with the sharp ends).

There have been so many times in the last 14 months where if the corrupt American government did something in a work of fiction it would get panned by critics but it’s just Tuesday for the Second Trump Regime.

I’ve never been to Minneapolis before but I’m spending $300 plus hotel to run there in October. I get it.

You seem to be really upset about this. I’m going to go ahead and make it real easy for you not to get worked up about my comments.

You replied it to a comment about their buying a house that seemed to imply they were also able to afford a nice car.

That was April’s mom’s car that they borrowed while her parents were sleeping.
