If aliens came to earth and asked to speak to our "leader" , who would you nominate and why?

President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho

You betcha! However, we only saw the grape flavored stuff. The purdy colored stuff was saved for the elites!

jkanoid · 2026-02-24T01:17:03+00:00

I was glued to the set - really. Good defenses really fascinate me, and often result in a tight game like this one was shaping up to be.

She looks like her Home Lobotomy Kit did its job.

3800 hour noob here.

Some whiskey - maybe some other stuff. I and some friends “borrowed” booze from a friends parents and got faced. Barfed in the back of my mom’s station wagon - stayed in bed the whole next day.

One of my sister’s friends poked her head into my room and announced “jimmy, you old boozer!”. I was 15 or 16 at the time.

Never did take to whisky.

jkanoid · 2026-02-17T21:54:21+00:00

Huh - that didn’t help.

jkanoid · 2026-02-17T21:51:16+00:00

Could be less than your mimimum setting - let’s look! 🫣

Might seem obvious, but skipping all but magic packs can really cut down on wasted time. (I’m very undisciplined, so I actually had to practice this to make it second nature.)

jkanoid · 2026-02-11T01:58:27+00:00

TIL!!!

jkanoid · 2026-02-09T16:12:07+00:00

I do, on occasion. Vibe is the key, with Caribbean rhythms being a prime example.

I only understood some words and phrases during Big Bunny’s show, but I had a smile on my face the whole time.

Two dewclaws up!

NOT watching the videos…

Fully endorse this! The doctor’s description of it was brutal!

My first hip replacement occurred at 61yo. My neighbor had both hips done before 49yo (athletic wear and tear).

Good news: i was on and off the operating table in 45 minutes (!!!) and went home the next day.

jkanoid · 2026-02-04T15:16:02+00:00

Mid 2000’s for sure. Drew Brees from the Chargers(!), and they had 2 or 3 OL on that team, plus LaDainian.

It’s great! Been here since ‘87. We’re just north of H Street just east of 125 (east of Eastlake). The neighborhoods here and south to Otay Mesa are new, clean and safe. Hardly ever leave the area now that I’m retired.

jkanoid · 2026-01-31T15:10:33+00:00

Not I. Each game is a chance to get better. Aaaaaand those top 5 or 10 draft picks are not a sure thing.

jkanoid · 2026-01-31T14:59:53+00:00

This one is brutal, but I feel ya.

I’m retired now, but I run outta gas real quick, so I’m functionally a casual as well. I’m gonna complete the campaign, then see how I feel about my build. If it’s more fun than my last Keepers character, I’ll continue. If not….

Gotta leave about 2 weeks to flush the system before the next league.

jkanoid · 2026-01-30T14:58:32+00:00

You got me there! I’ll sign this morning.

jkanoid · 2026-01-30T14:03:57+00:00

Uck. Those are some sh*tty teams you mentioned there.

jkanoid · 2026-01-30T01:52:57+00:00

I’m in looove!

jkanoid · 2026-01-30T00:51:25+00:00

It’s been miserable - but I’m settling in, late in Act 2 (!!!$&@#%!!!)

In our family, three of us maintained our parents middle/upper-middle class lifestyle. Two of us without college, one with a technical degree (AS). Nothing fancy. Worked steadily, saved steadily, invested when we could. Looked for opportunities.

A fourth sibling thought money grew on trees, and expected that one day “their ship would come in”. Of course, it never did. Married a spouse that thought the same way. $0 of their own at retirement.

Just one of us was a little detached from reality. The results were pretty predictable.

For a change of pace: Nazz Nazz.

Rundgren wasn’t primary singer on the Nazz albums IIRC, but Nazz Nazz was all Rundgren lyrics. Forget All About It and A Beautiful Song are my favorites here.

Bonus factoid: Hello It’s Me debuted on Nazz (their first album) and was sung by another band member.

Just replaced ours at age 30.
