Michael C. Thomas @mceethomas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Richard enters my hall of fame of "people's champs" like Nina Oyama. What an absolutely bafflingly hilarious man. 010
Michael C. Thomas @mceethomas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026His whole thing is being the stoic guy, but at a task like "Find out the tower's height in beans," you see the facade crack. He is smiling as much as he is physically able to, and it is an absolute joy. 110
Michael C. Thomas @mceethomas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Oftentimes this leads to grand failure, which he always shrugs off with a nod of the head. But it's when he does triumph that the magic happens. 100
Michael C. Thomas @mceethomas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Richard feels like a contestant that is absolutely at war with himself, where he cannot help but do the first thing he thinks of doing. His mind is so strong that he cannot talk himself out of it. 110
Michael C. Thomas @mceethomas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026There have been extremely smart contestants in the past that have been flummoxed by the show, like Victoria Coren Mitchell, but Richard is so NEARLY emotionless that his being baffled comes across a little differently. 110
Michael C. Thomas @mceethomas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026But Aoyade is a different breed. He is an extremely smart man that is forced to think in arcane ways that he could not anticipate doing, despite his deep history of British panel show appearances. 110
Michael C. Thomas @mceethomas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I fear some people might lump him into the "hates being on the show" group of contestants that sometimes make things unpleasant - I'm looking at you, Brett Blake! 100

But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano 11768681651

Reposted by Michael C. ThomasKen Tremendous @kentremendous.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year. 382130586
