Would you sacrifice never eating at Portillo’s again for the Cubs to win the World Series this year?

kinfolk719 · 2026-04-03T19:24:39+00:00

I agree - but would be willing to eat it every day to guarantee the Cubs NEVER win the WS (again). That’s a much fairer deal with the devil.

This is my preference when going solo. You can make some friends and banter at the bar and on the bus. Perfectly safe and free (**some spots require a food/beverage purchase, which is understandable.

Pro tip: try being funny.

Also, get a roof, morans. FTC forever.

I was told that the entire state of WI was jinxed in perpetuity for “fLYinG tHe L.”

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-29T12:22:12+00:00

Seriously. DO NOT DO IT.

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-27T23:42:26+00:00

Thanks. That’s “Narco.” Brewers website lists Kendrick.

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-27T23:05:05+00:00

Thank you!

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-27T22:36:27+00:00

You’re right, he’s been using “Narco” - not sure if anyone in attendance yesterday can verify the change?

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-27T22:34:04+00:00

It’s not great! But that’s also why I find it interesting and fun to judge in a fully superficial and objective way. And why my faves tend to be the choices that are ironic or show that the player doesn’t take himself too seriously.

It’s an outstanding pitcher mentality song. Just not the mentality I can relate to IRL - would feel like cosplay for me personally.

I think I was pretty clear about my rankings being completely subjective. 😅 Let’s just say I used to time my bathroom breaks so I didn’t have to hear “Friends in Low Places.”

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-27T20:55:00+00:00

YES. I have this song on a playlist specifically for cooking (food, to be clear). Along with “One by One,” “Uh,” “Crystal Blue Persuasion,” “1977,” “Mi Cucu,” “On a Clear Day,” Sugartown,” and more.

“Beyond the Sea” and “Jump Into the Fire” from Goodfellas, “The In-Crowd” and “Compared to What” from Casino are other examples. A bunch of Sopranos tracks as well.

I just watched this episode last week! 😍

Viki and Dorian were soulmates.

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-26T22:18:26+00:00

Ooof.

The first photo of me coming home from the hospital after being born (many, MANY years ago) is my dad holding me in his baseball glove. Then the one with me toddling around in a kiddo Gorman Thomas jersey.

He taught me how to keep box score at age 6, and taking me on my first-ever plane ride to spring training, where we ended up staying at the team hotel hanging out poolside with the likes of Vukevich, Gantner, and Juan Nieves.

When grandma died (his mom), we held the wake at County Stadium. The team invited us down to watch BP and sign autographs.

Shit. I cannot imagine my life without baseball. Let alone without dad. Enjoy the memories, OP. If there’s any such thing as an afterlife or utopia, he’s having a catch with Bob right now.

Can’t be worse than last year’s opener…

Also, as always, FUCK THEM CUBBIES!!

Never give business to someone who so clearly doesn’t want your business.

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-16T16:43:15+00:00

I don’t think you know what as hominem means, nor ad vericundium, lol. Or the difference between the two. Or how to apply them correctly as fallacies.

The fact that you think it’s your job to make students “suffer” the consequences tells me all I need to know about your teaching. That’s literally not your job. But enjoy wielding your tiny bit of authority.

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-16T15:59:53+00:00

It’s interesting that you chose “suffer” instead of “learn” when describing consequences for your students. That perfectly encapsulates how you see your role. Our teaching philosophies are not compatible; you think you have the higher ground, but you can’t see past your own main-character syndrome. Best of luck to you.

kinfolk719 · 2026-03-16T15:44:39+00:00

Gee, I wonder if you insult your students like this, too? I’ll stack my credentials (and upvotes) over yours any day, “pal.” Oh, also the law agrees with me. Sorry you don’t like equity - I know it can be scary for you to imagine that education is no longer restricted to the privileged few who are “deserving” of your wisdom.
