The Spurs aren't going to score this season, are they?

Comedy also has a pretty hard-and-fast Rule of Threes, and I can't decide which one this would fall under.

What an awesome response by Egypt to a bullshit call.

We need Anderson Cooper to be involved with the World Cup, as I can't hear "Bosnia-Herzegovina" without thinking of Channel One.

The #WorldCup is awesome on a lot of levels, but extra kudos to reminding everyone what an absolute banger "Come Together" is.

My unblemished streak of never once successfully sharing a Google Drive document on the first try continues.

Is there any way to watch the World Cup WITHOUT seeing James Corden?

If I had a time machine, I would go back and stop myself from ever having two Google accounts. It's an absolute tsunami of frustration.

Enshittification should be required reading for all humans, but, oh, boy do I need to take frequent breaks from reading it.

Around this time every year I question whether the stress of tax season is worth being self-employed. And every single year I consider just getting a job working for someone else, getting a W-2, and going back to doing my own taxes. Then I remember that it's much more fun when I'M the idiot boss.

I'm all for the Orange King being president for life AND I'm all for the 22nd Amendment. It can be both, if we're lucky.

I miss the days when the US wasn't run by the dumbest mafia ever.

My wife this morning, who fell asleep at halftime: "Sorry the Bears lost." Me, delightedly: "Oh, do I have a story to tell you."

Chicago is going to be the drunkest it's been since game seven of the 2016 World Series.

Okay, Bears, am I safe to talk shit all day?

With Miami beating OSU and Bama getting boat raced, this weekend proved how idiotic it was to exclude the Irish from the CFP, but I'll also point out that the last team to actually beat IU (and soundly) was ND. I don't think they would beat them this year, but they certainly deserved a chance to.

"Love Hurt" will be 100% of the headlines tomorrow, regardless of the outcome of this game.

My family has been playing one game of Phase 10 for approximately 12 hours. I cannot understand why people like this game.

Michael Bradt @michaelbradt.bsky.social · 20/12/2025

Looking forward to seeing which of these teams will play IU in an equally-confusing uniform color matchup.

Michael Bradt @michaelbradt.bsky.social · 20/12/2025

ND would have absolutely boat raced either of these teams.

I went to a new eye doctor yesterday. So now I have to lie to a total stranger about whether I can see the difference between number 1 and number 2.

I can't explain it, but egg nog is the warmest cold drink.

Their unhinged nature doesn't get to me as much as their non-existent senses of humor. As far as I can tell, committing to this absolutely terrible bit is the only crime that's been perpetrated.

I've been watching old WWF matches on YouTube for NOSTALGIA, and I never realized how absolutely hilarious the Million Dollar Man's entrance theme is.

This clown show administration was pearl-clutching over demolishing racist Confederate statues because of "tradition," but the White House is fair game?

Whoever invented Sober October is clearly not a baseball fan.

So, TNT has the worst score bug in 2025, right?

They had about 1 trillion good choices for a title for the Springsteen biopic, and they somehow fucked it up.

Fuck off, Disney. Doing the right thing only when it affects your bottom line might as well be doing the wrong thing.

If you're not concerned that two late-night hosts have lost their jobs because this country elected the softest, most rabbit-eared piece of shit who's ever lived, freedom of speech may not be for you.

I don't normally notice this, but I absolutely hate how my hands smell.

If there wasn't enough proof that Trump is a stupid fucking moron, he declares war on Chicago on a weekend that the Bears have a Monday night game, so no one has anything better to do today than to protest.

Has the TACO seen The Untouchables? Not a good idea to fuck with Chicago.

It's crooked. How perfectly on-brand for the administration.

Mr. Robot is a really great watch any time, but it's an especially great watch in 2025. It's on Netflix now, if you didn't get the memo.
