Meh. There were a couple of yacht cracks and a general tone of confusion/should we be mad? about the Pegulas' situation. You oversold it pretty good.

Oil and gas would seem to be only a side business for Terry and his daughter. I have no idea what that business is worth. But I don't think it's a lynchpin of the Pegula financial empire that will either save or ruin them.

Again, I don't know anything. But your wording strikes me as odd — they liquidated $1.7 billion to buy the Bills. They sold their land/mineral rights holdings and got $1.7 billion in cash, no? After selling holdings for $4.7 billion in 2010. That's $6.5 billion. Those holdings are gone. I don't see what the current oil/gas downturn has to do with it. A bigger question is how any couple who had $4.7 billion plopped on their laps could be in this financial situation 10 years later? Why is there even a PSE? Why wouldn't it have been enough to buy the teams, Kim could have knitted some trinkets to sell on Etsy (which probably represents the sum total of her business acumen), go sit on your yacht and enjoy life? Why this need for more money, status, power? I honestly don't get it.

True. We can't have that fun and cathartic presser after a major firing, but we do get to think about Terry peeling open a cheap can of cat food and sharing it with Kim (one plastic spork between them). I believe I sense snark here. Smell points out how, uh, HAM HANDED Kim's comment about family lifestyle was, but there's also how dumb her shifting of blame was from where it belongs (those who hire/retain) and those who "let you down." These are not smart people.

Seems a lot of the workers came down with The Pegula Flu.

This shook me to my core, because I know what it feels like to have to do this:

I laughed out loud, but not sure why. What a great time to be alive.

Have you heard of chippling? It's all the rage. Ask your kids.

Yes, but at a time like this, I can't help but think we need to all pitch in and repay this selfless couple for all they've given us. A GoFundMe campaign, maybe.

I said I was sorry. What more do you want? I thought I could sue Terry for emotional damages.

All I have for now is — "Oh what a tangled web we weave when at first we start to deceive."

No offense, I was talking quality lol.

Sure, they put out for dark.

Winner winner chip and dip dinner. Your turn, sir.

Hmmm, not bad. I think we want one word that becomes the literal name of the activity, not a comment on that activity. You are free to double-dip. The next to last one might have possibilities. For background, the inspiration here is the sniglet — a word that should be in the dictionary but isn't. Comedian Rich Hall came up with the bit and I think made more than a bit of money on it. The one example I always remember is the act of trying to spread cold butter on bread — wondracide.

T-2, you are getting the PPP and EIDL programs mixed up. The advance on the EIDL loan, which was $10,000, is now $1,000 per employee up to $10,000. I think the PPP program is unchanged. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/smallbusiness/sbas-dollar10000-disaster-loans-come-with-new-caveats/ar-BB12ovTT

That works, too. I mean the tank in general.

What's it called when you pour the broken chips at the bottom of the bag into what's left of the chip dip container, swirl it all around with a spoon and eat it? When I deem a winner, that poster will earn the right to come up with his or her own question. h/t to Rich Hall.

It's funny to read Taro's subject line literally and realize, duh, there's one ultimate example.

Thanks but he was referring to not talking so that the respirator would stay in place.

Thanks. I'll have to talk quite a bit while wearing it. And I'll have to wear it for 5-8 hours. Is it a practical idea for me?

The criteria are explained. Like a lot of modeling and analytics surrounding the pandemic, take it with a grain of salt. The big model out of Washington State is being discredited for its wild fluctuations. Following this pandemic has not made me rethink my opinion of analytics in hockey. The story is saying that Covid-19 will really hit rural areas later, that it's already in those areas, silently spreading because of not much testing, and the hospitals won't feel it until enough time has passed for people to get really sick. Who knows? It doesn't seem to be the case in our neck of the woods. So far. Fingers crossed.

OK, OK. Anywho, we're back to Trump suggesting that New Yorkers will have to repay the federal government for Covid-19 aid.

I feel like I'm missing something here. And this goes for Neo's "Florida can't" response. We're talking about how the federal income taxes people pay make their way back to the states. There's not a state income tax in FL, but residents of course pay federal income taxes.

For fans of Impractical Jokers, please do not waste your money on their movie. What a letdown. A predictable letdown, I suppose.
