    USMNT 2023

    Just enjoy the club games because when it comes to USMNT Greg will work hard to fuck it up.
  2. First ones that came to mind were "Turn the Page" and "Are you sure Hank done it this way". Some other good ones mentioned as well. Here's one
  3. My wife tells the story of her notoriously frugal dad being proud of himself for finding a "6 star" hotel in Mexico to take the family one year. Even though it was super cheap, he was still dismissive when people told him there was no such thing as a 6 star hotel. Turns out when you market yourself as a 6 star hotel with nothing to actually back up that claim, there isn't any sort of standard you have to hold yourself to. My wife said "2 star if I'm being generous". This has nothing to do with recruiting other than Five Star Plus+ sounds totally made up.
  4. What did the itemized bill say? Was there a service charge already added?
  5. Right. Why not add 18% to the prices of the food and drinks and state loud and proud tips are not expected and they pay employees a living wage that is baked into the prices.
  6. "Sirr Parker is better than Ricky" "Dat Nguyen is better than Dusty Renfro" The delusion is infinite.
  7. "What are you basing that on?" "Uh, everything" I love the end. "It's like Oklahoma and Oklahoma St." "YES! YES!"
  8. I feel like you could pull a song out a hat from those 80's girl bands and it works. Bangles, Wilson Phillips, Go-Gos, etc. But I'll highlight this one because 1) it hasn't been mentioned, and 2) it's a song I really enjoy when I THINK no one is watching. A couple of years ago i was coming home from work and both garage doors were open, which told me the nanny was outside with my boys. I didn't see them in the yard, so I figured they were walking or riding bikes around the block. This song was on, and I'll be damned if I'm going to stop it in the middle right before it gets to the best part. I turn the volume up and am singing like I'm in the finals of a karaoke gameshow on Fox. Songs ends and I get out of the car. Nanny is standing in the garage with a shit-eatin' grin on her face. "Oh, I was just finishing up listening to a song" "Yea, I know." "How long you been standing there?" "Long enough"
  9. this thread has now peaked. shut it down. no possible way it gets better than this page.
  10. Who said inconvenience? It's was "too big". WTF does that even mean?
  11. I smell a boycott. And btw, a broker that has been "booked twice for possession of marijuana" is definitely not to be trusted. John fucking Sharp. Perfect Aggy Chancellor if there ever was one.
  12. My son had soccer practice on Saturday (indoors), and the coach said they may cancel Monday's pratice due to heat (it's outdoors today starting at 615pm). Forecast says 104 at 6pm and 100 at 8pm. Apparently that's not hot enough to cancel. Practice is on.
  13. And Colon Blow was Nov. 1989
  14. The internet says Bad Idea Jeans commercial was 9/29/90
  15. Several years ago we hired a new Director of Product Marketing. There was a guy on the team that was totally passed over. He had experience, was really smart, well respected by the team and company, but the new boss hired his buddy into the role. First meeting I'm in with the new Director, he's presenting something in front of his team, his boss, and an adjacent team (mine), and it sucks. His boss (his buddy who hired him) said something about focusing on the 4 P's and giving a new readout in a week. About 2 minutes later the guy who got passed over sends me a work IM saying the Director just sent him a note asking what the 4 P's were. Couldn't even bother to Google it before showing his ass to the most senior person on his team. My friend spent about 2 months teaching the Director the basics of marketing before he left for something different.
  16. I guess I don't really understand the definition of a vocalist given some of the comments and suggestions. I would have thought to be considered a vocalist you need great technical skills. I would put Roy Orbison and Linda Ronstadt up against anybody not named Freddie Mercury.
  17. Still faster than Leon
  18. I'll give credit where credit is due. First comment was "when you're coming 'round first and you feel something burst..." And there were 4-5 comments confirming that they, too, we're experiencing diarrhea. Serious responses. I was expecting some complete trolls describing the color and smell of theirs, but none of that.
  19. Just had this pop up from 4 days ago. Not sure why NextDoor decided to send me an email today about it. BTW, for reference, I live ~10 minutes from Belterra, so she decided to send this to the wider surrounding area: "Has anyone been sick with diarrhea this weekend? I woke at 1:30 just miserable. I did make coffee with tap water. Wondering if that caused it. Another friend in Belterra is also sick"
  20. So if 5 days come and go and there is no announcement, then it's "yea, that didn't pan out. But just wait until I tell you something else that may or may not happen in the next 5 days. Keep clicking hte website and checking in to see if it happens."
  21. Had to take my son's bike to the shop in Colorado after a couple of rough days of downhilling. Didn't need anyting massive. Bleed the bakes, make a few adjustments, etc. It took 3 days, and when I went to pay it has "suggested tip" on the screen. Bottom rung was 15% for "ok service". Huh? There's already a labor charge on top of hardware. So tipping is expected for "ok service". Fuck. That. Your business is parts and labor. I paid for both. It's not like they cut me to the front of the line. I had a moment like the OP.
  22. I had no idea Jason Taylor coached there. Living in South Beach being coached by a NFL HOFer isn't a bad sales pitch. I assume Miami would find a way to line his pockets as well.
  23. Buncha women's shoe salesmen on this site.
