  1. I haven’t posted this because I wasn’t sure it would translate, and I’m also still in horrified disbelief that she said this, but I can’t sleep so here goes: I have five kids 7-14. We were all sitting around the TV playing jackbox games with the neighbors. My seven year old daughter, Maggie, is hilarious and was killing it on the game. Also playing was my 14 year old daughter, Annie, my middle three kids and a neighbor family. (If you’ve played quiplash, you know that the game on the tv gives you a prompt, and then the players enter a funny or clever answer in hopes of getting votes as the best answer.) The prompt was: “something you don’t want to find in your ice cube.” The two answers written by the kids to choose from were: A bandaid Blod I said, “blod? What’s blod?” Maggie (the first grader) blurted out: “well, i didn’t have room to type it all, but it’s not just any blood, I meant Annie’s (the ninth grader) vagina blood. Did you guys know she had that? Wouldn’t that be terrible in your ice cube?” Shocked silence and then awkward sputtering, finally followed by cackling. Neighbors quickly left to explain menstruation to their children.
  2. She sounds dyslexic. There’s a visual kind that you typically think of but also an auditory kind where you can’t distinguish phonemes.
  3. Made this tonight and it was delish. Packed full of flavor. A little greasy—might do skinless thighs next time. Subbed quartered canned San Marzano tomatoes for cherry and homemade black beans for canned.
  4. That’s all I was trying to clear up, sending lobo into a temper tantrum. 4 times as many people get commended or Hispanic scholar.
  5. No they didn’t. It’s less than the top 1% of scores. Even St Johns who has more national merit scholars than any school in Texas has at most 25-40 each class.
  6. ah that's important context. Truly he's probably not wrong about many more deaths related to flu. Flu season had a 7 month start on COVID19 season.
  7. Wow. Are there other ID experts saying this? Will be interesting to see how it plays out. If it turns out to not result in a bunch of hospitalizations, people will credit the social distancing. Hard to prove a negative.
  8. Source? Why wouldn't they just tweet something to that end?
  9. I'm so disappointed for my baylor guys. We had a legit shot. Yada yada yada fuck Baylor I know where I am. Just bummed for them (and me if I'm honest). Hopeful that these decisions work and slow the spread.
  10. No the pact started after that game. We went in 2018 (a year in which we both lost the first game) and it strengthened our resolve. A really fun atmosphere if you’re winning.
  11. No I need y’all to win. I have a long-standing pact with my Minneapolis cyclone friends that if Baylor and ISU meet in the big 12 championship game we will drop everything and meet in KCMO.
  12. Totally pathetic turnout for a 3 loss team on senior night.
  13. Ugh. Was that a foul? Surely he didn't just eat it
  14. And thats really bad for us. They haven't missed yet and we are sucking it up at 53%.
  15. Really good defense on that last shot.
  16. I hope we lose one. Don't want to go into tourney on an absurd win streak tempting fate.
  17. And I can't go. [emoji380][emoji380][emoji380][emoji380]
  18. That's impressive. I wonder how the league being "down" factors in. I know we have a slight edge in points per game allowed but kenpom is a genius so what do I know.
  19. duh typo makes more sense. I'm in the mountains with low data signal. Ive only watched 6-7 jayhawks games tbh. Just a (biased) opinion. I'll look up stats.
  20. I don't know kenpom rankings enough to know what defense move is.
  21. Disagree. Two good teams defensively. Bears are better.
  22. This is exactly why I think we have a shot this year. We have four guys who take turns being that one guy. I see that as a huge positive, as you're not sunk if "that guy" has a bad game (like with CJ and Tweety).
