    Boognish

    So many people with similar taste to me are super into Ween, but I've never quite gotten it at the same level. Although "Piss Up a Rope" just cracks me up to no end.
  2. I took at his him saying it looked like shit, and Midwest IPAs are shit, which is a wildly ignorant take of course. IMO there's no specific kind of IPA/APA that is unique to the Midwest, but there are plenty of Midwest breweries making world class IPAs/APAs. Toppling Goliath, New Glarus, 3 Floyds, Black Stack, Pipeworks, Half Acre. I could go on.
  3. My wife is a UNI alum/former athlete, and that happened a couple years after we graduated college. We were watching at a sports bar in Des Moines, and the whole place went absolutely apeshit. Everyone was united because Iowa fans mostly went to UNI and cheer for them on the side, and the ISU fans hate Kansas. 2 years later we were in Lawrence for an ISU/KU football game, and we were at a dive bar getting Bloody Marys and the bartender goes "did you guys go to Iowa State?" and my wife responds "he did, but I went to Northern Iowa". Bartender looks at her and dead-ass serious goes "I wouldn't mention that to too many people today". Dude's a Midwest legend, and a lot of UNI fans are crushed that they couldn't get him back to Cedar Falls to coach, but assuming he does well at CSU he's on his way to bigger things".
  4. Just start funneling money on the Florida line.
  5. I have family in VA Beach and they always go to Harris Teeter’s. Surely I went past Krogers there and just didn’t notice
  6. I've only seen them in Indiana, Ohio, and West Virginia, so do what you will with that information.
  7. It sure does.
  8. I'm just quoting you, genius. I don't know that Elon Musk is a Nazi, but it's much in the same that I don't know he's a man. It sure looks like he's a man, but I've never seen his balls so how can I be sure? Unlike visual evidence of Elon's manhood, I have seen him give a Nazi salute and parrot talking points that very closely resemble Nazi positions. Maybe, maybe it doesn't mean he's a Nazi. But it sure looks like Nazism.
  9. So in order to be a Nazi you have to register with a party?
  10. I've been to both towns a few times, and I just have way more fun in Fort Collins. My wife and I went out in Boulder on a Saturday night with school in session back in 2019 or so and we were the youngest people everywhere we went. We were like 34 at the time. Boudler feels more like a place for old wealthy retirees, and Fort Collins feels like an actual college town. Although the view in Boulder is definitely better.
  11. Fort Collins > Boulder, IMHO.
  12. You ready for an in-law from Chicago?
  13. These guys popped up another place I frequent, and I'm hooked. Definite MJ vibe. Or "chill version of Wednesday". Which is kind of the same thing.
  14. Semis that are governed at 65.1 MPH trying to pass semis governed at 65 MPH across the entire god damn state of Iowa on I-80.
  15. Exactly. And it's worse when you've been friends for 25 years, in each other's weddings, etc. You feel like a prick asking, but I'm anal about never leaving any unfinished financial business.
  16. When we get together with the guys I grew up with, one wife is always super slow to Venmo things back - if at all. I don't think it's intentional, but it's fucking annoying.
  17. It’s an incredibly tight circle for someone who does what he does.
  18. You can’t tell it, but she’s jamming to “Pink Pony Club”. Move over Chappel, the next Midwest Princess is on deck
  19. So I was looking at McCollum’s story deeper, and he has literally based his entire life within a 5.5 hour radius of Storm Lake, Iowa. He’s been biding his time for one of about 5 or 6 jobs in the western Midwest. Kind of a momma’s boy in the most admirable sense. i hate that he’s going to Iowa, but I respect the hell out of him
  20. Exactly. Coaching your Alma mater is a dream for most guys. It’s why I couldn’t understand Tech fans melting down when Beard went to UT.

    She’s trying to, but just can’t formulate that much English yet
  22. It’s mud season in the Upper Midwest. Check back with me in a month

    I’m in a real intense Dan phase. I was buckling my daughter into her car seat earlier and belted out “YOOOU WERE HIGH” as my wife walked into the garage.
