Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
The easy answer is to re: thread title. But in reality her spin is that these will be disposable and stick to the sides of the cup with some kind of adhesive differentiates it from the one I got on Amazon. Who fucking knows. But the further this goes the more I'm thinking it's a stubborn reaction from me dismissing the idea from the outset. Oh well, at least there's a few laughs in it.

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
A little update on the "disposable cup cover for music festivals." Welp, our bank account is soon to be $2500 lighter. My wife and her partner are paying some industrial designer $5k to come up with a prototype. Money doesn't bug me, since she makes good coin, but I kind of think this is becoming more about proving me wrong than anything else. I must have given her my dubious face when she told me, because she said "Don't worry, we'll still own the IP." Now there were a few ways to respond to this. I could have (1) laughed and said "I'm not worried at all," or (2) "You know the IP for something know one wants isn't going to be worth much." However I've been a husband for over ten years, and have self inflicted wounds to prove it. So I said neither. Instead I said "Sounds good to me." Well, I guess the next stop is prototype. I'll have to ask everyone for an NDA before I post it, so none of you assholes steal the IP, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Small Inventions that changed your Life
- Donald Trump 2019
The Fox News expose in the NY Times a couple of weeks ago had a quote that jumped out at me. After the inauguration Rupert Murdoch called Trump in the Oval Office to offer congratulations. Instead of saying "Hey Rupert, thanks for calling!", Trump said, "Hey Rupert, you want part of this action?" I know I'm stating the obvious but his whole Presidency is a big con job to enrich himself and his friends. He doesn't give a flying fuck about abortion, conservative judges, the military, blue collar jobs, you name it. Enriching himself and his friends is his idealogy. Period. He does and says whatever his dumbfuck supporters want to hear in the off chance he might get another 4 years to keep the con going. Wouldn't surprise me in the least if he personally goes long defense stocks when talking about increasing military spending, and shorting oil when he says prices are too high. Forgot about immigration. On that he's probably honest, since there's no question is a racist piece of shit.- Johnny (football?) Manziel
Damn, Liucci follows that dude around everywhere.- What are you listening to right now?
Listened to this a lot this week- California road tripping
Good plan. PCH is a beautiful highway but the portion south of Big Sur to San Simeon is full of hairpin turns. Lasts about an hour, seems like three. Tahoe is gorgeous but too far out of the way for a PCH run, as well as Yosemite. If you want to do this scratch PCH, and go down the 5 after Tahoe and Yosemite to Sequoia and add Joshua Tree as you head south. Can't go wrong either way really.- Wonder Woman 1984 -- Coming in 2020
She's hot as hell. A worthy successor to- Classic Car thread
- North Texas vs Florida St. Nov 13, 1976
My old boss was a UNT grad. He claimed this series was a defining moment for both programs. Said at the time they were roughly the same, power wise, both smallish upstarts on the upswing. I kind of laughed and said, what? UNT and Florida State? He was adamant that if the series were reversed, and UNT had won both games (76 and 77), UNT would have been ranked in '77 at the end of the season, and ranked going into '78. And with that Fry would have stayed, negotiated UNT in the the SWC, and turned UNT into what Florida State eventually became. Sounds like alumni bullshit, but I liked my old boss, and kind of hope he was on to something.- Chernobyl HBO
I went back and rewatched the first 4 episodes in anticipation of the finale. The show is remarkable. Production value, acting, score, authenticity, drama ... outstanding. I imagine other would be television producers out there watching this thinking, fuck me, the bar just got raised.- Godzilla: King of the Monsters
That was a fun 2 hours. Mothra, respect, you crazy insect you.- Deadwood
Set your DVRs, it's on tonight early- Over rated shit you just don’t get
Thank you. I'd say we should start a club, but I suspect we're already in it.- Over rated shit you just don’t get
Bob Dylan and Drake. I've always hated Dylan, made my ears bleed. Fuck your hippie poet nonsense, it's like listening to a homeless guy in front of Circle K asking for change, over and over. Drake has the same delivery. Mumbling nonsense. My son says I'm the only one on the planet that hates Drake, and for that, I award myself a gold star.- The Cars
csb Got last minute tickets to Lollapalooza, about 10 years ago. Glanced at the line up and saw Big Audio Dynamite, so I was in. Met up with friends, had a shitload of drinks, and while walking to my hotel saw Ric Ocasek outside smoking. Me: Hey are you Ric Ocasek? (looking around for his wife) Ocasek: (takes a drag of his cigarette, looks away) Me: You guys playing tomorrow? Ocasek: (takes another drag, looks at me like I'm an idiot) Me: (obviously drunk) You know, you guys should tour more. Fans would love to see you. I mean, when was the last time you toured? Jesus, the number of hits you guys have. Ocasek: (throws cigarette to ground, walks away) Me: Hey man, love you guys! /csb *Forgot to add some serious thunderstorm hit Chicago and they evacuated everyone from the concert. Didn't even get to see them.- Donald Trump 2019
I look forward to the Presidential campaign, so he'll stay here and embarrass us nationally at his narcissistic rantings to deluded sycophants Town Halls, rather than internationally at political events, where any respect we may have in the world is being eaten away with each ridiculous appearance.- Netflix Recommendations
Highly recommend Street Food - Asia. Goes into detail about the chefs' lives, how they built there businesses from nothing. Top notch production value, I think same people who do Chef's Table.- Trivial things that please the ever living shit out of you
Got this a while back from a recommendation on TOS. It pleased the ever loving shit out of me this weekend.- All Things Brisket
Just got Cooper's delivered by mail. Any advice on reheating? Instructions say microwave works best but that sounds insane. Thanks in advance.- Donald Trump 2019
There's no "lol" there. This is getting fucking exponentially outrageous and dangerous. What's really scary is video manipulation software. These fucking Republican/Russian operatives will launch something horrible about the leading DM during this next election cycle. I don't even want to speculate, but it's going to be bad.- All in the Family/Jeffersons remake?
I thought it was a good one off. Tomei and Foxx were pretty good, but Woody was awful. Love the guy but his attempt at a NY accent was cringe worthy. As a kid I didn't really have an opinion of Meathead, but as an over 40 grown ass man fuck that guy. Anyone unemployed and living with their in laws has no right to be so opinionated and confrontational. Get a place of your own, then come over and argue with your father in law, dumbass.- ESPN finally getting its shit together- no more politics
You want some?- Sam Ehlinger
I accidentally clicked on the title and it took me to page 1. The sea was angry that day, my friends. From there to Elite Company in a season, quite a turnaround. - Donald Trump 2019
