Oh damn, I didn’t know that introvert and selfish/self-absorbed were synonyms…. Learn something new everyday, I guess.

I don't get how it's "selfish" or "self-absorbed" to not reach out. They don't know each other. They haven't played for the same coaching staffs. Just because they both played at ASU and transferred to LSU doesn't create some special bond, particularly in the transfer portal era.

Hell, Jayden might not even know who is starting at QB for LSU. I certainly wouldn't expect someone of his demeanor to send a rah-rah inspirational text to Leavitt that means anything.

Cheers and Frasier.

Especially if you consider them together.

This is my answer. I've done a couple of rewatches in order from the beginning of Cheers to the end of Frasier's original run.

And while Wings shouldn't necessarily be grouped together with those two, it did technically exist in the same universe, and featured multiple Cheers characters on a few episodes. One of Kelsey Grammer's first Emmy nominations as Frasier was from Wings.

Also consider, for those who think she was Derek Pomansky, that she would have been playing a heck of a long game since she signed up for TD in 2004.

Ree was never really a regular poster before Les was fired though. I only ever knew the username from random Food Board posts.

That's why people theorized it could be Ponamsky. When Ree joined TD, DP was a river pilot. Then I think he started his own LSU sports site for a while. Then while he had a radio gig, he got hired as the special assistant to Orgeron, and suddenly, Ree was campaigning on tRant and CC board all day, every day for O to get the job.

There was no "long game" being played because it didn't exist until 2016. I don't know if DP is Ree or not, but the timelines of both made people suspicious. And Ree claiming "he" was a "she" on an anonymous message board doesn't mean anything.

BERRRWYN?! :lol:

I finally watched this tonight, and had a blast.

It was probably longer than it needed to be, some of the jokes/quips were overdone, and I would've liked to have seen more from Battle Cat and Evil-Lyn, but those are minor complaints.

There were a few moments where I genuinely laughed out loud. When Adam exclaims "I have the power" and becomes He-Man, I got a charge up my spine. The Easter eggs referencing the old cartoon and 1987 movie were awesome, too.

I feel like rewatching this again soon just to catch anything I missed. Hopefully, Amazon follows through with the sequel. I'm almost compelled to go full nerd and buy a couple of the action figures for myself.:lol:

He's smart enough to know the truth, but he also knows that he can't stray too far from the hive mentality which exists inside the Hollywood Bubble.

I don't know. He has always welcomed discourse with conservatives, and has consistently been critical of Islam and socialism/communism over years. The left attacks him for it, and he doesn't seem to give a shite. The Hollywood Bubble has already strayed from him.

That's why I believe him when he says his vote is "in play". For those who don't watch Maher regularly, this is not the first time he has basically pleaded for Democrats to disassociate from the lunatic commies and love their country, warts and all. He wouldn't bother taking this stance if he was just going to keep voting Dem no matter what.

Nothing will happen to him.

Spanish citizens are as weak as the French and Canadians.

Just wait until the Sagrada Família gets attacked and, still, nothing happens.

These countries and people are broken beyond repair.

We'll see. Francoism has seen a rise in popularity among young Spaniards, and the most recent regional elections showed a shift to the right.

Marine LePen is leading the polls for the French presidency despite Macron trying to get her imprisoned so she couldn't run.

Furthermore, the AfD party is leading the German polls despite the media doing their best to ignore them.

Even in Ireland, Sinn Féin popularity has started declining, and their politicians are being called traitors.

Point being, Europe still seems to have a pulse. The next elections across the continent will likely determine if they can revive themselves.

Spain’s king and prime minister both support the migrants while their youth unemployment for young spaniards approaches 50%.

I watched a video recently discussing the resurgence of Francoism among young Spaniards. Of course, the brilliant liberal academics couldn't understand the trend.

Then they interviewed some young Spanish "fascists", and they were like, yeah we know Franco was a dictator. But his economy thrived, people had jobs, and they didn't tolerate communists, Muslims, or immigrants.

Franco was brutal, but given the current state of Spain, it doesn't take a genius to figure out why his brand of governance might appeal to a disillusioned portion of the population.

The son of our close family friends lost it a few years ago. Always a nice guy, came from a good family, and appeared to have a good head on his shoulders.

Maybe 5 years ago, he began posting verses from Revelation on social media. That eventually morphed into long posts about how the United States was an evil entity created by Satan to destroy the world. Everyone gave up contact after he began posting that Charlie Kirk was suffering in hell for putting his country above Jesus or something.

The creepy part is that nobody knows what happened. Speculation has gone from mid-life crisis, to drugs, to potentially finding a weird church/cult, or he just snapped. I think his dad or nephew tried to have a heart-to-heart with him at one point, but never got a straight answer.

She exists just to be an attention whore. It seems any time her name disappears from conversation she sticks her nose in something to gain relevance.

Early in her career, she sang the National Anthem at the top of her lungs.

When she took the knee for the first time, Obama was still president.

When she fought for equal pay with the USMNT, the women had already collectively bargained for guaranteed salaries and benefits, rejecting the men's pay structure.

Now as she supports trans in women's sports, her career is conveniently over.

She's only an activist when she has little or nothing to lose. She's not brave or courageous. She's a fraud, has always been a fraud, and that's how she'll be remembered.

Dominguez wasn't ultimately responsible for any runs, but good Lord, he has been such a bum.

Signed as our star closer, and now he's doing damage control in the 6th. Inherits 2, walks 2, allows 2 more to score. Puke.
