Mostly Virginia Tech and Packers stuff. (And McLaren F1, and the Nationals when they actually try to field a team)

Created a Virginia Tech Fans Starter Pack and I hope to add more to it as I see more folks on here.

I'm still down for Transformers (show or movie)

First time I beat Chaos, entire party was down, and my Red Wizard was hunched over and just using a sword at that point.

Maybe the happiest I've ever been to beat a game.

Fickell to Cincy
Satterfield to Penn State
Franklin to Wisconsin.

There! Now nobody's happy.

Every once in a while, a family member comes in and drops something off without saying a word.

No no, I enjoy doing this. Happy to help and do my part. No, please, let me scrape the dinner that I made for you but you didn't eat off of the plate for you. No I'm not crying in front of David Harbour.

Princess Mononoke verges a little bit high on the violence side, maybe a tween movie.

Grave of the Fireflies...no

So son, sit down, we need to talk about a few things. You're going to encounter drugs in the world, but I want to know how much you already know. Do you know what Prog Rock is?

"Yes"

Oh good, you know about Jon Anderson. We can skip a lot then.

My human children were curious about these things as well, so thank you.

Thank you

Important question: was the dog wearing a hat?

I don't like it that this app doesn't do previews on YouTube clips.

Ethan "Candycorn Speed" Lavery @ethanlavery.bsky.social · 12h

This clip is canonically about Haynes King and teams trying to defend against him.

Sounds like he needs a little more zing in his zang zang when he's coming...to a ci-tay!

Me watching this video while the narrator is describing the action with no dread in his voice:

A tiktok of someone watching a video where a narrator is playing with a children's shape toy, but placing each object in the square hole.

He looks like he's pulling nightshift hosting duties for The Hunger Games

He looks like he has an Instagram filter on him

It looked like when my kid's little league team practices when to toss to the first baseman vs. throwing it overhand and choosing the wrong one for a situation.

The whole point of MNF or SNF is that it's one game that everyone is watching.

I mean, even if ratings drop on the main MNF game, I'm sure the 2nd game is killing the ratings of whatever it's replacing, so I'm sure Disney and NFL love it.

I hate it.
