Watching the SNL Homecoming concert and just cackled when the Backstreet Boys appeared. Like, why are they dressed like that. Also, if they don’t turn those mics off. The only one that sounds not terrible is the one in the trench and the low pony.

There were only five valid reasons to have been rooting for the Chiefs. You are from Kansas or Missouri. You are a Commanders, Giants or Cow fan. As a Commanders fan who was rooting for the Eagles, I can’t except the fandom excuse. If you have any other reason, perhaps seek therapy.

I love Beyoncé, but I am pissed at her and all the rest of the artists that don’t opt out of that “dynamic pricing” bullsh!t. Y’all used to make money without it, and still can. You’re already rich. It’s giving tone deaf. And, in addition, we have to pay ticketassters ridiculous fees.
