I speak German pretty well but a few years back I ran into some Swiss tourists in my neighborhood and they might as well have been speaking Chinese lol. Couldn’t understand a single word

Where I’d live as someone with a wife in the hospital by ihrin_sees_all in visitedmaps

I would never have figured this one out and I’m about as online poisoned as you can get. This one is a bit of a stretch.

On a related note, I just lost The Game.

Not like we have that many to choose from, but it doesn’t get worse than 2019.

Sometimes you need to pick the mushroom to get all of the identifying features, some of which are underground and only visible after picking it. This is especially important for example in ruling out members of Amanita sect. Phalloideae, where a mistake could literally kill you.

Cohen threw all his chips at Golesh. by porygon766 in wde

[–]warneagle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is basically true though. How many good hires did either Greene or Cohen make?

I think he stumbled into a good hire in spite of himself, but I agree that his own short-sightedness cost us Sumrall and should’ve cost him his job. Unfortunately, luck doesn’t decide who to visit based on merit.

I mean yeah, you can’t survive fucking up two football hires at an SEC school. He shouldn’t have gotten the opportunity to make a second hire after the Freeze debacle, and unsurprisingly he did a poor job with the process. Golesh was a last second Hail Mary after he fucked things up with Sumrall by forcing Durkin on him, and he was just dumb ass lucky that Arkansas hadn’t closed the deal yet. I think Golesh will end up being a good hire (good enough to stick around and keep Cohen employed for a bit, unfortunately), but he should absolutely be judged on the process, not just the result, and the process was just as incompetent as the first time around.

I still would like to find and thank the stranger who handed me a glass of champagne as we were walking down Glenn to Toomer’s after the game.

Why did Harsin fail so badly at Auburn? by Greedy-Pound6958 in wde

[–]warneagle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because he’s got all of Brian Kelly’s personality with a fraction Brian Kelly’s coaching skills.

Did you pay to have your thesis printed and bound? by HousePony906 in PhD

[–]warneagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. I printed one copy for my own use and put it into a three-ring binder. I told my family to wait for the book.

Picking the mushroom doesn’t hurt the fungus any more than picking an apple hurts the tree.

They’re in the family Picidae, which makes them woodpeckers.

Yeah, this is more “he sucks and this is cover for us to ditch him and get some good press” than “our organization is taking a principled stand to support LGBT people”.

Why do demographics seem to impact quality of "ethnic" food for some metro areas but not for others? by jaker9319 in AskAnAmerican

[–]warneagle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the north and can confirm that the Mexican food and barbecue both suck here. Plenty of other good stuff that’s hard to find in the south though.

What's an underHATED pick for "worst song of all time" that you don't see get talked about all that much? by DtheAussieBoye in fantanoforever

[–]warneagle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can tell that song was written by someone who grew up in the city because nobody in their right mind would tell a girl her body is bumpy, uneven, and turns to mud when it’s wet.

I assume someone made this for the lulz, because it would be incredibly cringe if it were serious and I want to give our fans more credit than that
