  1. Plus, he's got nowhere else to go.
  2. Also, building a covered stadium that can handle the amount of lake effect snow they get is quite an engineering challenge, I imagine.
  3. Plenty of fat people to slice open if you need to.
  4. I had zero expectations going in and had several legit laughs.
  5. In the DoD aggregate, this is a rounding error, but at the service level, this is real money. At the service level, we were kicking and scratching and providing gnat's ass justification for every dollar spent. I worked with budget numbers like this and the detailed work that went into generating and executing them was extensive. I am at a complete loss as to how a service can lose sight of this amount of money. Several levels of oversight had significant failures to allow this to happen. Based on my experience working in the Pentagon, this whole situation in breaking my brain.
  6. Now don't let Bama come for Sark. Then I'll freak out.
  7. Well... shit. But there are enough personal reasons for Bo to go there that I'm not gonna freak out. Time for Sark to flex.
  8. Only had the one mid-season stumble during '23 after a clean '22. Hoping that I'm in the early 2010s SF Giants pattern with championships coming in even years.
  9. Late to the game here and have only watched the first episode, but I laughed out loud multiple times.
  10. Recency bias for us for Astro fans.
  11. Yastrzemski
  12. Opened up the 10-day forecast and saw a low of -12 next Tuesday. I'm in Tulsa. I did not sign up for this. ETA: Weather app was pulling bad data. Still looks like we are going to dip into the negative numbers on Sunday/Monday. I will still be sending a letter to management expressing my extreme dissatisfaction.
  13. God, this is exhausting. You know what else balances out a power dynamic? One side valuing the other and voluntarily ceding power to that other side, which by almost all accounts is what Costco management has historically done with their employees. Costco has demonstrated in the real world that a cooperative relationship between corporate leadership and employees can actually exist and be relatively successful. Rather than applaud it and treat it as a model to be emulated, labor pundits slap on the "union-busting" label. In their minds, an adversarial relationship between labor and management is the only possible solution. Well, I guess it is the only possible solution that puts a paycheck into organizers' pockets. Heaven forbid that we all actually try to figure out a way to work together rather than keep each other in check with the threat of mutually assured destruction.
  14. @NowThis was not bullied. He pulled a Keyser Söze immediately after posting the link.
  15. FIFY
  16. Dangerously close to murder 2 charges for someone with as much blood thinners as those two dudes have in their system.
  17. I think we can all rest easy in the knowledge that the Surly lexicon has not been absorbed into the LLMs, because not one of the recommendations says “highly regarded.”
  18. Username/thread correlation achievement unlocked!
  19. I don't know. They've got a strong case with a lot of probable claws.
  20. Went to the zoo, flipped off the monkeys.
  21. Blows my mind that the folks with the "We the People" tattoos and truck stickers are the first to say "fuck you" to public health measures.
