  1. @YGIFS approved Yeah, he's gone. No way around that now.
  2. Reasonable critiques based on online reviews. We got it out on 635 and the Tollroad and it seemed to ride well. Checks most of the boxes that I need right now. Will definitely re-evaluate in a few years if Scout presents itself as a viable option.

  4. I think that song was absolutely chosen to acknowledge Sinead’s watershed moment on SNL. She lost her career over it basically — and was later proven to have been 100% right.
  5. That was very enjoyable. Recording cut off after the Belushi bit from the graveyard. Was there something after that? Sir Paul? There was better, I know, but Sandler’s song brought the feels. The last two minutes were simply perfect. Loved that.
  6. Buddy posted this response: “Cousin Eddie is smarter than Randy Quaid these days.”
  7. Absofuckinglutely -- it's chill-inducing watching it sung before Canadian hockey games. The one in Edmonton is fantastic and last night's before the Canada-US game was phenomenal.

  9. Well, looks like my search is over. We are finalizing details on a new Toyota Landcruiser and I'm pretty pumped about it. Toyota's reliability -- and the SUV factor -- won out over Mercedes in this instance. I did put down the $100 to reserve the chance to order a Scout if/when they come out. I figure I can drive this one until that is released and decide then. The Landcruiser should hold it's value much better than anything else I was looking at. There's also a chance I become a member of the Landcruiser cult and never give this truck up.
  10. I think I mentioned it in this thread, maybe it was another one, but my FIL is suffering from congestive heart failure. I talked about his primary medication no longer being covered by Medicare prescription add-on (it's expensive AF) but there were a couple of other alternatives that he can take that were. My wife and I didn't know if this was any way related to Trump winning in November or if the advising agent fucked up when placing this year's coverage. This became known before Trump was even sworn-in. However, there is something that I'm sure is absolutely part of Trump's dismantling of the medical research programs via Musk's toadies. There is a new study being done on a drug at UT-Southwestern that supposedly can reverse the effects of the type of congestive heart failure that he has. He was going to take part as either the drug or placebo portion. Those in the placebo portion would be first in line to get the medication after the trial is over. Well, he hasn't heard a peep about this study in weeks. I'm sure it's no longer happening unless policy is reversed (and I'm sure that will happen). Again, my in-laws are really wonderful people but the chickens have come home to roost. My FIL was already seeing the light before this and I think my MIL is slowly understanding the situation that they've both helped vote in. In short, this is not one that I'll celebrate on this thread because it hits almost as close to home as possible. I just bring it to your attention as another example of what can happen when you vote for shitty people with evil intention.
  11. Well, that and there might have been quite a few voting irregularities in the seven swing states that it might not have mattered anyway. I read somewhere that chances of one candidate winning all seven swing states by just enough votes to not trigger a hand recount without getting 50% of the popular vote was something like 35 billion to one.
  12. And it's 100% deserved
  13. Hard to believe Binnington is the best Team Canada can do.
  14. Nine seconds — three fighting majors [emoji1787] Slightly better than an All-Star Game
  15. Tkachuk squared
  16. And another one!!
  17. Fight right off the opening faceoff!
  18. That rendition of Oh Canada was pretty spectacular
  19. I’d respond back to that guy that hmm, Trump doing something he said he wouldn’t do?
  20. Trump's "Shock And Awe" Month Look through the smoke and chaos and drama. He's blundering and flailing. https://andrewsullivan.substack.com/p/trumps-shock-and-awe-month-7a9
  21. Bond villain you say? Kronsteen's long lost child?
