I've been adding people who seem to want to talk Reds occasionally to a list. It is not comprehensive by any stretch, but if you are looking for some other Reds fans, start here.

I put a garbage disposal in my shower once I saw Kramer do it on Seinfeld

I think I figured out why the world has gone to shit. People need to be more careful about where they put drying racks.

I went for a bike ride to try to improve my mood, but I started feeling dehydrated at the 5 mile mark and water wasn't helping fast enough and I had to turn around and go back. That wasn't how I wanted it to go, but the weather was great!

I always think that at least my parents don't have to deal with the shit that's in front of us, whatever that may be. It gives me a little bit of peace when I miss them.

Go take a Camaro ride with you mom, if you dare!

Dude...

I'm sorry. I didn't see your posts last night. Losing a loved one sucks. I hope there is peace to be found.

I hadn't thought of that. I'll have to remember to ask him sometime if he ever met Roush.

Once I bought the complete set, I was surprised at how much Comedy Central chopped them up. There were so many sketches that I didn't remember and I assumed that I had watched all of them in college.

Screenshot of a tweet from NickFrank40 (@NickyFrank30) on X.com. The tweet reads: “My grandfather used to say ‘and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel’ and I never knew what it meant until after he died my grandmother explained some magazine did a fluff interview with Magda Goebbels a few years before WW2 that included her strudel recipe and my grandfather, who hated the Nazis with the passion of 10,000 suns, thought it was an example of the media sanitizing evil people and he would use the phrase when someone asked him to overlook a bad person doing bad things and focus on the good.”

Watched an episode of Kids in the Hall (season 2, episode 11 - 12/18/1990) just now and there were 3 sketches that I thought were really relevant to our current times 🧵

After dealing with an early torn ligament in his left thumb, Cam Collier hit .337/.425/.452 in his final 27 games with Double-A Chattanooga. The Reds prospect has carried that momentum to the Arizona Fall League as he showed in last night's opener.

A huge group of people are in a giant hole in the middle of a rolling field. There is a large sign with an arrow pointing to the hole that says "HOLE." Suddenly the group's attention turns to a new hole, complete with a giant sign with an arrow pointing to it that says "NEW HOLE." One person points to the new hole and says "hey look! Someone made a new hole!" The mass clamours out of the old hole and makes a bee-line toward the new hole. It's chaos. One person, now situated in the new hole says "this feels like how the old hole used to feel." Another person nods in agreement.

I don't know who does the commercials, but I kept thinking Kevin Brown was Joe Buck during the first round series he did.

Joel Luckhaupt @jluckhaupt.bsky.social · 2d

Yes, definitely.

Joel Luckhaupt @jluckhaupt.bsky.social · 2d

So, Kevin Brown?

The booking for com commercial with "They're not our kids." "We're not?" still makes me chuckle despite seeing it dozens of times. The little girl's delivery is perfect.
