UCF is gonna hang half a hunnert on Gundy.

Was he busy playing footsie w/ another team mid-week or having his agent try to renegotiate his contract at oSu?

Good thing okie state is wearing black pants. The shit running down their legs blends right in.

Over-rated chants loud and clear in Orlando.

Great call on 4th down, Gundy. A pass rolling out to the right when your QB is throwing ducks and your WRs can't catch shit on a rainy day.

Okie State is gonna go from the biggest riser to the biggest faller in the ranks in 7 days. Impressive.

UCF with the 92 yard TD run. Lulz.

Bwahaha...and a tip drill pick by UCF.

Don't do this to yourself, UCF.

Buh-bye, Buffs. Lol.

Gordon should enter the portal 5 minutes after the gun if okie state loses this game.

Just turned it on. This would be the Gundiest thing ever if they beat ou only to get their dicks caught in their zipper at UCF.

Jupiter FL bitch was the embodiment of Karen. I kept waiting for her mother to show up and ask "what kind of people are these?"

We tried this in the early days of GC exchanging. We found some of the nicer restaurants in Fort Collins and would send them enough so they could splurge on a nice meal. Mind you've they're sleeping on piles of money & don't need anything but still tend to eat at the crappiest chain restaurants across the land. They always hated whatever 5-star place we'd try and we'd then have to hear about how that was a mistake. So it was Applebee's, Panera and TFIF cards for a few years. About 5 years ago they decided they only wanted Costco cards since they could use them in CO and Hawaii where they spend Jan - Mar each winter. So we dutifully sent Costco cards and would get Amazon cards in return. Again, what's the point?

This reminds me: After 10+ years of trying the passive-aggressive approach with the old man, this is the year when we put our foot down and refuse to send gift cards to him and his wife. What is dumber than having someone send you a GC and you send them one for the same amount? If he wasn't a luddite and paranoid about most things internet I'd explain it would be simpler and just as pointless to Venmo each other a couple hundred bucks. Enough with this shit.

In fairness, I think @slorch finally got enough instructions from people to learn how to activate Do Not Disturb settings on his phone 😁

So are you gonna wear sweat pants to the feast at HLP? Classed up with a snazzy guayabera and some crocs for comfort?

Not happening this year. And it's not because we don't love her, just as this isn't a permanent ban. She'll be welcome again, but at some point she's got to learn how to do adult things if not for her own benefit, but for her children and grandson. She also needs to understand that family will almost always see through "fibbing," and when it comes to self-help it eventually comes down to put up or shut up time.

From my sofa and dealing with that nervous sensation that comes with the onset of back spasms.. FIGHT!

My co-dependent sister has pretty much gone ghost since the Thanksgiving debacle 2 years ago. That was the episode with her rebound dude she found online after ending a 10+ year relationship. Rebound dude was the loudmouth fuckstain who made an ass of himself at the feast my wife and I hosted (got drunk, offended my wife and my sister's adult kids, ignored his 4 yo "oops" daughter, kept calling me by the wrong name, and broke into rage tears when Dallas lost in OT being the highlights of the day). She finally dumped him 6 months later, apologized profusely for his behavior and admitted she needed to get back into therapy to address her self esteem and co-dependency issues. Eighteen months later, she's remained pretty much radio silence with me and our older sister. We get the occasional text and when we're able to reach her on the phone it's a brief call where she regurgitates some of her memorized talking points which makes it sound as if she's actually keeping up w/ her therapy. As someone who's logged many couch hours over the last 30 years it's pretty easy to spot the lies (like when she can't remember if she told you her therapist was local or a teledoc in FLA or was it GA?). Most signs are pointing to her therapy really being chewing on CBD gummies and posting "you're special and worth it" memes on social media. My older sis (who lives in AR) had a heart to heart with me a few months ago about what my wife and I were doing this year. Since our 2023 was a year of massive upheaval centered around my decades-long job being eliminated during a corporate reorg in May, job hunting through the summer, and starting the next chapter as a public servant in September at a hefty pay cut, I explained our plans were to be simple, quiet and thankful in our own home. Big sis was happy to hear this, but asked pointedly if I was going to truly adhere to that plan. She knows what a softy I am with our sister, and how my policy of there always being room at our table for family has resulted in our sis showing up with little to no notice with her 2 kids and grandson 8 of the last 12 years. I hadn't realized it had been that many, and my wife has never complained once, although it turns out she had texted her concerns to my big sis that we were enabling our sister's actions. Specifically, co-dependent sis needs to learn to start her own family traditions with her kids and her grandson. Her son's 31, the daughter is 29 and the grandson is pushing 4. My sis's ex-husband is a great cook with a big family (locally and outside of Houston) so the kids know what a functional family is like & never miss a meal. But my sis can barely boil water at 56. So now that Thanksgiving's less than 2 weeks away my sis will likely fall into her old pattern which will be to text us with a "I sure have missed you...do you have any plans for the holidays?" in search of an invite. This year she's going to hear that our table is full with just the two of us, but if she wants to get together that weekend for my birthday we can meet somewhere. tl;dr -- gonna have a quiet turkey day w/ just the two of us. Might even break tradition and just do a ham instead of a turkey since we've got better leftover recipes for a ham & bone. Then we'll spend the weekend putting up our decorations & being thankful for what we've got.

Well she & Jared gifted a couple billion during their WH stint so she's obviously got the $ to change her looks. Plus she may be laying the foundation for a total makeover so she won't be identifiable when she's forced into exile in Europe because the MAGAts think she turned against her dad.

I knew a guy who recently died a horrible, agonizing death including spending his final 10 days on a ventilator due to diverticulitis. Sepsis had set in. 56 years old. He was also an aggy, unemployed, a raging alcoholic & little to live for, but the moral of the story is something, something listen to your doc.

No you couldn't. If you're over 30 and we're never at least a Div I football player you would have no chance. You may be lucky to even be able to get up off the ground after the first attempt.

So Skyline chili for Thanksgiving feast?
