I don't have a sports watch. I have a ShitFitBit that tracks my blood pressure as I read the news.

Are people in New York given no choice but to watch Giants/Vikings? Cruel.

And I say that as a diehard Vikes fan. #skol

I've been watching a lot of Hallmark movies this holiday season, and I realized that if you start out with the assumption that the main characters are suffering from mild concussions, everything makes a lot more sense.

Works on regular movies, too.

One day I'll be a high enough level Cleric that I can banish even the most powerful undead and then it will be all over for you Liches.
One day, the full extent of McConnell’s complicity in the destruction of modern American government and society will be fully understood and it will be all over for you Mitches
One day I will find out who ratted on me and it will be stitches for you snitches.

People expect old men to die,
They do not really mourn old men.
Old men are different. People look
At them with eyes that wonder when…
People watch with unshocked eyes;
But the old men know when an old man dies

I named my fists Mitchell and Webb because they ARE the baddies
I named my fists Common and Sense because I'm about to bring the Paine
I named my fists Blood and Meridian because I’m fixing to Judge your ass.
