  1. What the hell is with the ice? Why's it so wet?
  2. Thank you. They thought Nate Peterman deserved to start a game this year. They could easily screw this up.
  3. Give Toronto credit, this is what a team of kids learning how to win looks like.
  4. Infinity Drought
  5. Now *this* is a hockey game
  6. I only get 3 month itches. I'd never dated a girl longer than that until Josie. I get sick of people pretty quick, but not this time around. :lol:
  7. I do care. I just can't.
  8. The US has been bombing the middle east my whole life. It doesn't matter who gets elected, or which party is in control: the US bombs the middle east. It's what we do. How am I supposed to invest emotional capital in something so monolithic, right now, in 2018?
  9. I think we have to put some faith in J-Bots, which is hard to ask people to do, to find those "value" guys to fill a roster out. Tearing things down to the studs to me means jettisoning everyone except the most important guys in order to try to find a different mix that works.
  10. A lot of that stuff is probably available to stream on Prime Music so you don't even need to buy the physical albums. I know that personally if I'm not spinning the physical vinyl it's easy enough to just stream it. Although I know the quality isn't as good as CD thanks to compression.
  11. I'm curious what you plan to convert to digital. Is it stuff that simply doesn't exist outside of your vinyl pressings?
  12. Nice! Don't sweat the receiver. If it was a good receiver then it'll be a good receiver now. I have a ten year old Sony that I consider modern but to be honest I wish I still had my old Technics SA-200.
  13. Nice
  14. I would take Rosen solely to piss off all the chuds who call WGR
  15. You're about to be mad at me online, but I've never seen a single episode of that show.
  16. Yup. Only now instead of not having anyone to socialize with, you can just aggressively log the hell on to whatever nightmare subculture you want to be a a part of and hate whatever other group of people you want. If you can understand Incels, you can understand terrorism or extremism of any kind. It's all there in that culture. Dudes just angry and hell about "others".
  17. Basically. Only worse. This is an entire sub-culture of dudes stewing in their own juices about how they're bearing some biblical cross. The base of it all is, as usual, that a bunch of men think that some society, or person, or agency, or whatever, owes them something. And they sit around and jerk each other off and recruit other vulnerable people into their circus, radicalize them, and unleash them on people who are completely unaware. Incels, ISIS, neo-nazis, KKK, KEK, the Alt-Right. They're all the same. Sorry bud. If the mods want to spin this off that would be fine. I just figure the topic wont last long because it's probably banned anyway.
  18. If you want to understand why this guy did what he did, and you want to try to figure out whether it's terrorism or not, you need to read up on who he was and what he believed. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-facebook-post-connected-to-suspect-in-van-rampage-cites-incel/ Minassian appears to have been an "Incel" or "Involuntary celibate". If you have no idea what 4chan is, or what an Incel is, or why it's relevant to things like ISIS, white supremacy, toxic masculinity, etc., then you have a lot of reading to do. So much of what has been happening with respect to terrorism, white supremacist radicalism, etc, not just here in the US but globally, over the last 20 years, is related to the rise of the internet and all of these sub-cultures where men (young men especially) are preyed upon because they are vulnerable to overtures about how they are victims and deserve [insert whatever here. 42 virgins, a prom date, a job that a black person has, etc]. So while I'm not sure I can get all the way to calling this guy a terrorist, it would appear that the driving force behind his actions is not unlike the driving force behind pretty much all this . Dudes are f*cked up.
  19. What about Rob Johnson if his brains hadn't gotten scrambled?
  20. Actually, that's what I'm trying to do. Take the Billsiness out of the equation for a moment and look at just the QB's this team has had and say "okay, which of these guys could have won a Super Bowl" if we're looking at them on their own.
  21. Here's a thought experiment: Rank the Bills QB's since Kelly and lets see how many we think could have won a Super Bowl if things had gone better.
  22. Because that's what happens
  23. Torts gonna get fired
