Fashion is Dumb Two-Fer

Sent from TR, my #1 FID correspondent...worst job ever trying to put on a bow tie.

The Gore Vidal? Or is it the Paul Reubens?

And, honestly, I don't know what the hell is going on here. Is that first one a bud? Is that followed by a turd and then kale? Just terrifying awful shit.

  1. Where do you carry your wallet and cell phone with those get-ups?

  5. Jongro is legit for sure. Zman recommended it to me a few years back. He did not steer me wrong.

    Completely unrelated: The Egg Bowl is about to be as exciting and ridiculous as it’s ever been. I’m legitimately excited about Leach in Starkville.

  6. Rob and I drank together for hours and there was no barfing at all. We drank a memorial gathering under the table and still... no barfing. Some of our comrades, they were maybes, but he and I held fast.

  7. I fell off the January wagon last night. Two glasses of wine at a dinner. Followed that up with couch bourbon. I feel awful. May need to go back on wagon until Feb.

  11. zson learned all the words to the “Dick in a Box” sketch. smother-in-law isn’t impressed.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Two, put your junk in that box.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I was gonna show Dick in a Box to my kids, but wife freaked out about it. Probably the right move.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I don’t see how hopping is going to help you sell books, Clara.

    ReplyDelete
  15. When it comes to hopping Clara I prefer Citra and Mosaic

    ReplyDelete
  16. Dick in a box is genius level comedy. I’m gonna watch it again right now.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Amazingly, ‘twas zwoman, not I, who showed the sketch to zson. They were watching a best of SNL video channel and Dick in a Box came on. Apparently he’s been watching it regularly for a month or so but zwoman was worried I would be angry so it’s been their secret. I am not angry of course, this is one of the few times she read me completely wrong. Her mother, however, is not pleased.

  18. smother-in-law is a funny typo

    ReplyDelete
  19. And I’m more of a Lazy Sunday or I’m on a Boat guy, though Dick in a Box is outstanding.

  20. I just spent 75 mins yelling at 4th grade boys who repeatedly barked at a rec basketball referee. For once, it wasn’t mine acting up. If I get arrested, that’s why. Kids suck sometimes.

  21. You guys watchin the Dukes today? I do hope so...a little CAA pride is good for the soul. Though I do believe they're going to get steamrolled.
    What a great opportunity this was for someone, who is say on the left side of the production bell curve, to post something. Anything!

  22. Am I the only one thinking 5.5 pts is too much for Clemson to get? They contained OSU’s monster offense pretty well.

  23. your tribe are 1.5-point favorites at home against first-place charleston. cougars are good. as is charleston. grant riller is a baaad man.

  24. I agree with TR but I’m not the gambling guru

  25. Thanks guys! My sister had baby #2 on Thursday, so I have been parenting toddler #1 this week. Started my 50th at 630am with Play Doh and unicorn sprinkle cookies.

  26. Happy Birthday Shlara!!

    I follow Chris Chiozza on Twitter and just saw a picture of him wearing a DC Go Go hoodie. I MUST HAVE ONE!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Happy bday Shlara! Sounds like a good (early!) start! Dukes still have a chance

    ReplyDelete
  28. Happy birthday Shlara. If you get tired of unicorns try the dick in a box sketch, kids love it.

  31. Tonight will be my first time grilling tomahawk steaks. Very excited. And a bit nervous. Those m-fers are huge.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Tomahawks are fucking awesome. Tough to find around here so I usually end up doing very large bone in ribeyes. The smoke/seat combo is good for both of those cuts.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I Dadded the shit out of today. Up early and made breakfast. Hit the gym and then coached a 7U basketball game. Made lunch and took the kid to a nerf blaster/dodgeball birthday party. Then went to a coed baby shower (Why is this a thing?). Now home with the family and another kid for a sleepover. Gonna let the wife run that show though. The playoffs and my couch are calling.

  34. my kidlet got her first college acceptance today, from ithaca college. good to get that first one out of the way. hoping now to find a place not quite so spendy.

  35. Is Roadhouse Jeff Healey’s opus, or is Jeff Healey Roadhouse’s opus?

  36. Did you get the steaks at Summit Meat House? Their tomahawks are supposedly superb.

  37. Ryan Tannethrill!! Gotta hurt to watch him for Dolphins fans. Good. Fuck the Dolphins.

  38. I ordered a bunch of Piedmont beef cuts from Piedmontese.com. It’s a leaner cut of beef. The breed originally came from Italy. When they have discounts, I order a bunch. It gets delivered in dry ice. The sirloins and filet mignons are lean as hell and delicious when cooked rare. I have my kids loving rare/medium rare meat, which makes me happy for some reason.

  39. james harden had 11 turnovers tonight. in the first half. that's impressive.

    ReplyDelete
  40. That Piedmontdeez is the hot tip of 2020. Thanks guy. Inexpensive too or am I missing something?
    2nd wkd in a row for the Bikram 90 min hot yoga! Gonna grow a pony tail now. Get some.
    Titans came to play. That 69 degree game temp probably didn't hurt.

    ReplyDelete
  41. i will pay good american money to see danimal with a pony tail.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Haven't seen the Bikram doc...anyone here seen it yet? The namesake allegedly liked to have a bit of the sexy with his students. Is student the right word? Yogi's? Anyway...he was a perv, but he gets none of the money from the studio I get my moves on. There's my disclaimer.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I saw the Bikram doc and listened to a podcast on the topic. He is a narcissist and sociopath for sure, and likely a rapist. Definitely follows the path of a messiah-like cult leader.

    Can’t believe you can do a 90-min hot yoga class. I’ve done my share of 1-hr classes, but it’s a challenge, w/ the heat and the sweating. And the effort involved - washing your mat and washing a towel - makes it a PITA. Once my feeble neck heals and my atrophy is addressed, I want to take a few classes again.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I'll have to watch it.
    Last week, I sat through a few of the moves...was struggling big time. Didn't have to this week but there are times I just want to get the fuck out. Feel great though afterwards. I kinda dig it.

    ReplyDelete
  45. My wife goes to yoga whenever she visits her friend in Jax Beach. Don’t think it’s hot yoga though.

    One thing I am sure of is that I don’t enjoy watching this year’s edition of Florida Basketball play

  46. i always forget just how weird this is:

  47. sentence of ken!

    Here’s how Iowa celebrates a 70-degree day in the middle of March: By washing the car and scooping the loop and taking a walk; by daydreaming in school and playing hooky at work and shutting off the furnace at home; by skate-boarding and flying kites and digging through closets for baseball gloves; by riding that new bike you got for Christmas and drawing hopscotch boxes in chalk on the sidewalk and not caring if the kids lost their mittens again; by looking for robins and noticing swimsuits on department store mannequins and shooting hoops in the park; by sticking the ice scraper in the trunk and the antifreeze in the garage and leaving the car parked outside overnight; by cleaning the barbecue and stuffing the parka in storage and just standing outside and letting that friendly sun kiss your face; by wondering where you’re going to go on summer vacation and getting reacquainted with neighbors on the front porch and telling the boys that yes! yes! they can run outside and play without a jacket; by holding hands with a lover and jogging in shorts and picking up the extra branches in the yard; by eating an ice cream cone outside and (if you’re a farmer or gardener) feeling that first twinge that says it’s time to plant and (if you’re a high school senior) feeling that first twinge that says it’s time to leave; by wondering if in all of history there has ever been a day so glorious and concluding that there hasn’t and being afraid to even stop and take a breath (or begin a new paragraph) for fear that winter would return, leaving Wednesday in our memory as nothing more than a sweet and too-short dream.

  48. Two more yoga comments...I recommend for all of the aging males here, not necessarily of the hot and 90 minute sort. I do believe it will keep my past lower back issues at bay among a host of other benefits. And if I had any other yoga class to compare it to, making it through that first one probably wouldn’t have happened.

    This is the first time I’ve watched the Ravens. Lamar can really sling it...his arm reminds me of Vick’s.

  49. Had never seen the Shatner vid. I had to stop after 30 seconds.

  50. dave follows the links so you don't have to. mazel.

  51. I’m terrified of a 90 min hot yoga class, but I do go to 4-5 yoga classes a week, 3 of which are of the good cardio variety.

    And the Ravens are getting housed rn

  53. working on the 90-minute tantric class. not going all that well.

  54. I’m currently wearing a Gnomaste tshirt.

  55. Hot yoga is the shit. When you’re doing it, you’re warmed up and focused on flexibility and body-resistance strength exercises. It’s exactly what we all should be doing.

    Downside of the hot yoga joint in my town is that it gets packed and many dudes in the class go shirtless for it. And the smell is intense.

  56. Ryan Tannehill’s agent has to be fully erect, thinking about his client’s next contract.

    ReplyDelete
  57. I’m obviously not a Ravens fan but I am a fan of Lamar Jackson. Bummed that this game will feed deeply into the narrative around him and not being able to win with “athletic” QBs.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Tannehill bet on himself with the one year deal with Tennessee. Good for him. Get paid.

    TJ is coming to visit in late February so I’m just gonna let him be my Yogi.

  63. Derrick Henry continues to be a fucking mutant. Hardest bruising back to tackle since...Earl Campbell?
