    Where’s the “gun-to-my-head” emoji?

    My wife’s mother loves cruises, so we’ve gone on a few with her. The best one was when our two kids and our nieces were old enough to walk around the ship by themselves. Our daily routine would include a morning workout, chilling at the adults only pool, getting afternoon martinis (get the drink package), and playing scrabble in the library room (hardly anyone there).

    Lol. I guaranfuckingtee you if we both walked into a bar I would go home with a hotter woman than you while I’m wearing my khaki chinos, cheap black tshirt, black pumas, and $17 silver chain from Amazon. That combo and its variations are lethal for me. It’s all about your physical appearance, the vibe you give off, and most importantly if you stand out from the crowd or not. But yeah keep trying to attract women with your flashy clothes and expensive watches. Won’t hide your lack of game.

    I say this as a serial bad typist who often has so many fuck ups that his posts are unreadable...but for fuck's sake, the X and the K are NOWHERE near each other on a keyboard. 

    We all know he meant to type “hoaks.” He just forgot the “s” at the end is all.

    This list lumps everything together but still rightly puts The Wire on top. Succession comes in at 10.

    You forget about some of the juggernauts. Sex and the City was a monster.

    Band of Brothers at #30? Fuck the writers of this article. They must hate America.

  5. BottleRock starts Friday. I’m hoping we can get there in time for The Stone Foxes set at 3:30 (not likely); however, we will definitely be there for Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs. Thinking about skipping some of The Smashing Pumpkins to hear a few songs from War.

    I heard a thing on NPR about the history of the Turner networks.

    In order to get/keep his bandwidth, Turner was required to air a certain amount of news.  He hated that fact and basically created infotainment and that metastasized (deliberate choice) into CNN.

    CNN has always been more about the 'tainment than the info and it's wise not to forget that.  That their info tends more to the accurate than say Fox doesn't change that.

    Agree. Both CNN and Fox are in the “business of show.”

    Or Attica prison where they had that riot. I just saw Dog Day Afternoon again recently and that came to mind thinking about Al Pacino’s character outside the bank shouting “Attica! Attica! Attica!

    My mom and two of her sisters tried taking pictures in front of Attica prison once (we lived near the town). They didn’t realize people aren’t allowed to be anywhere near the walls. Once the guards started screaming at them, they figured it out.
